No
The Drive Inverter (DIx) Phase B current sensor is irrational.
The DIx Phase B current sensor is irrational. An irrational current may indicate a high rate of change or current measurement out of sensing bounds. There may be a condition affecting current input and output.
If the alert asserts at the beginning of a drive cycle, DIx may not enable. If the alert asserts during a drive cycle, DIx may be disabled. DIx may not function as expected.
No
The Drive Inverter (DIx) Phase A current sensor is irrational.
The DIx Phase A current sensor is irrational. An irrational current may indicate a high rate of change or current measurement out of sensing bounds. There may be a condition affecting current input and output.
If the alert asserts at the beginning of a drive cycle, DIx may not enable. If the alert asserts during a drive cycle, DIx may be disabled. DIx may not function as expected.
No
Drive Inverter Warning: Inverter over temperature.
Drive Inverter temperature (refer payload signals for temperatures) exceeds upper temperature threshold
