Frequently Asked Questions about 896.18.80
How many input amps does 896.18.80 have?
896.18.80 has 159 input amps when 896.18.80 is at vector regulation. 896.18.80 has 213 input amps when 896.18.80 is at V/Hz regulation.
How do I select the source of the analog output signal on a reliance 896.18.80?
Parameter P.012 on 896.18.80 is the parameter for 896.18.80 that selects the source of the analog output signal on 896.18.80. Parameter P.012 is identified as the Terminal Strip Analog Output Source Parameter. This parameter has a parameter range of: 0= speed (bipolar), 1 = torque (bipolar), 2= speed (unipolar), and 3= speed (unipolar at V/Hz) or torque (unipolar at vector) on a reliance 896.18.80. The default parameter setting is 0 for 896.18.80.
What is the cause of an HU fault code on 896.18.80?
Fault code error "HU," or a high DC bus voltage fault, is caused by DC bus voltage too high on 896.18.80 (capacitor protection) or 896.18.80's deceleration time being too short. If DC bus voltage being too high on 896.18.80 is creating the fault, check input line voltage to correct the fault on 896.18.80 and you may need to add a transformer to 896.18.80. If the fault is caused by short deceleration time on 896.18.80, increase deceleration time with parameter P.002, parameter P.018, or parameter P.023 versus Maximum Speed/Hz (parameter P.004). To correct this fault, you may also need to install DB option with resistors on 896.18.80.
