Autotuning doesn't support motor type

What does 4069 mean?

The selected autotuning procedure is not compatible with the motor type currently configured in the drive. This indicates a mismatch between the motor data and the desired autotuning function, preventing the tuning process from completing.

• Autotuning routine intended for asynchronous motors is selected, but a synchronous motor (e.g., P1-01=2 for PM motor) is configured.
• Conversely, an autotuning routine for synchronous motors is selected with an asynchronous motor configured (e.g., P1-01=0 for ACIM).
• Motor type selection parameter (e.g., P1-01) is incorrectly set for the physically connected motor.
• Drive firmware version is outdated and does not support specific motor types or autotuning features for the installed hardware.
• Autotuning function (e.g., P0-10) is set to an unsupported mode for the chosen motor type.

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Identify the exact motor type (e.g., Asynchronous AC Induction Motor, Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) from its nameplate or datasheet.

2. 2

   Verify and correct the motor type selection parameter (e.g., P1-01) in the drive configuration to match the identified motor type.

3. 3

   Select the appropriate autotuning procedure from the drive's menu or parameter set (e.g., select 'ACIM Rotor ID' for induction motors, 'PM Motor ID' for synchronous motors).

4. 4

   Check the drive's firmware version (e.g., P0-99) against the manufacturer's release notes for compatibility with specific motor types and autotuning features.

5. 5

   If using a custom motor, ensure that all required motor model parameters (e.g., P2-01 to P2-08) are manually entered and verified before attempting autotuning.
