CMS-2000 Solar InverterThe CMS 1500 and CMS 2000 solar inverters can develop a number of different faults and when a fault is present an error message will be displayed on the screen and usually the fault light will be lit. The below is a list of error messages, explanations on the error or fault and a list of possible actions to take to resolve the issue.

Possible actions

System

Fault

Isolation Fault 1. Check the impedance is between PV (+) & PV (-) and the PV-Inverter is earthed. The impedance must be greater than 8MΩ.
2. If the problem persists please call service.
Ground I Fault 1. The ground current is too high.
2. Unplug the inputs from the PV generator and
check the peripheral AC system.
3. After the cause is cleared, re-plug the PV panel
and check PV-Inverter status.
4. If the problem persists please call service.
Grid Fault 1. Wait for 5 minutes, if the grid returns to normal,
PV-Inverter automatically restarts.
2. Make sure grid voltage and frequency meet the
specifications.
3. If the problem persists please call service.
No Utility 1. Grid is not connected.
2. Check grid connection cables.
3. Check grid usability.

Inverter

Failure

PV over Voltage 1. Check the open PV voltage, see if it is greater
than or too close to 500VDC.
2. If PV voltage is less than 500VDC, and the
problem still occurs, please call local service.
Consistent Fault 1. Disconnect PV (+) or PV (-) from the input,
restart the PV-Inverter.
2. If it does not work, call service.
Over Temperature 1. The internal temperature is higher than
specified normal value
2. Find a way to reduce the ambient temperature,
3. Or move the inverter to a cooler environment.
4. If it is not effective, call local service.
Relay Failure
DC INJ High
EEPROM
Failure
SCI Failure
High DC Bus
Low DC Bus
Ref 2.5V Fault
DC Sensor
Fault
GFCI Failure
1. Disconnect ALL PV (+) or PV (-)
2. Wait for few seconds
3. After the LCD switches off, reconnect and
check again.
4. If the message reappears call your local service.
