What it means
The manual titles this fault Drive: Changeover to open-loop torque controlled operation not possible
. It is raised when the drive is operating encoderless and a changeover into closed-loop torque-controlled operation is requested. That request is issued as a binary signal (BI) at p1501, the signal for changing over between closed-loop speed control and closed-loop torque control. Because encoderless operation cannot execute this changeover, the converter cannot carry the request out and the fault follows.
Why it appears
- A changeover to closed-loop torque-controlled operation was commanded at p1501 while the drive is in encoderless operation; the converter cannot carry out this changeover in that mode.
What to check
- Do not attempt the changeover into closed-loop torque-controlled operation while the drive operates encoderless; the changeover request at p1501 must not be set in encoderless operation. This is the only remedy the manual gives for this fault.
Parameters the manual names
- p1501 — binary signal input (BI) that changes over between closed-loop speed control and closed-loop torque control; for this fault it is the signal carrying the changeover request that encoderless operation cannot follow.
Acknowledging and restarting
The fault is cleared by acknowledging it. Since the trigger is the changeover command itself, the drive restarts normally as long as no changeover to closed-loop torque-controlled operation is commanded during encoderless operation; issuing the request at p1501 again raises the fault once more.
The same on every family
Every manual that describes F07430 gives it the same reaction, acknowledgement and message class.

Questions technicians ask
What does fault F07430 mean on a SINAMICS drive?
The drive is operating encoderless and was asked, via the binary signal p1501, to change over into closed-loop torque-controlled operation. The converter cannot execute this changeover during encoderless operation, so it raises F07430.
How do I clear F07430?
Do not command the changeover to closed-loop torque-controlled operation as long as the drive runs encoderless, then acknowledge the fault. The manual lists no other remedy for this code.
Which signal triggers F07430?
The changeover between closed-loop speed control and closed-loop torque control is commanded as a binary signal (BI) at p1501. A changeover request at this signal during encoderless operation triggers the fault.
