EEPROM checksum fault

Vacon · 20 Compact

What does 22 mean?

This fault indicates a parameter save error, suggesting a faulty operation or a component failure within the EEPROM memory. This may lead to corrupted or lost drive configuration settings.

Common Causes

  • Corruption of data stored in the EEPROM parameter memory.
  • Failure of the EEPROM memory chip itself.
  • Interruption during parameter writing or saving process.
  • Electromagnetic interference corrupting EEPROM data.
  • Aging or wear of the EEPROM memory.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Perform a full parameter reset to factory defaults (e.g., set P1-01 to 2).

  2. 2

    After reset, re-enter critical parameters manually and save.

  3. 3

    If the fault persists, attempt to read EEPROM content if a diagnostic tool allows.

  4. 4

    Ensure stable power supply during parameter modification and saving.

  5. 5

    Replace the device if the fault consistently reappears after parameter reset and re-entry.
