What does F63 mean?

The software current trip limit, set in parameter A448 [SW Current Trip], has been exceeded. This indicates that the motor or load is drawing more current than the configured software limit, which can be a sign of mechanical overload or an improperly set current trip value. Persistent overcurrent can damage the motor or connected equipment.

Additional Steps

Steps 1–2 are listed in Priority Fix.

  1. 3

    If the load is normal, consider increasing the A448 setting cautiously, or investigate for other electrical issues causing high current.
