Abstract
An automation network that utilizes motor drives to diagnose faults, and provide potential solutions to a user. The fault status and/or diagnostic remedies may be displayed via a user display integrated with (e.g., in a single cabinet with) the motor drives and/or coupled to (e.g., in an external device separate from) the motor drives. As such, a logic process or other algorithm may be executed by the motor drive to determine a potential set of solutions for any given fault, based on, for example, determined errors and likelihood of causes for presentation to a user. In this manner, motor drives may allow for user corrective actions to be communicated to a user.
