The Drive's logic power is being


Fifteen Logic power backed-up backed up with main drive power off.

Position recovery window has


Power-up position recovery exceeded pre-defined limit, drive
Sixteen window exceeded won't recover position.

ASSUMPTIONS: 1. The drive configuration file is correct for the motor and application.
2. The DSP is running under the correct voltage.
3. The drive has been reset after any motor cable disconnect.

NOTES: 1. Blink counts Rapid, Solid, 15 and 16 are indicator states, not shutdowns.
2. Blink count 16 or 17 requires 5.5 volt back-up power and appropriate QuickSet settings to engage.
