Earth-fault/short-circuit monitoring function: May respond in the case of long motor cables and 4-kHz switching frequency (corrected from V1.9.3)

Corrected from:
- i700 servo inverter V01.09.03.10964 

Response of the new version:
The response threshold of the earth-fault/short-circuit monitoring function has been slightly increased to avoid a premature response of the monitoring function.
Selecting a switching frequency of 4 kHz and a high capacitance per unit length ('long' motor cables) will now no longer lead to a response of the monitoring functions. 
 
What happens?
The earth-fault/short-circuit monitoring function responds although no earth fault or short circuit has occurred.
 
When does this behaviour occur?
- Long motor cables with a high capacitance per unit length, possibly, no 'low-capacitance' cables have been used and
- inverter switching frequency set to 4 kHz.
 
Which products are affected?
- i700 servo inverter
 
Short-term measures:
Select a higher switching frequency for the inverter, e.g. 8 kHz.
