Customizing Your Application
8.1 Simple Parameter Adjustments
Factory settings may give satisfactory performance, however certain adjustments may be beneficial.
Adjustment
Parameter
Parameter Name
Motor Rated Volts
P-01
The factory default setting P01 = 0 should be used unless voltage
compensation is required.
Motor Rated Current
P-02
Must be set to the value on the motor nameplate.
P04 is optional. If this parameter is set to zero (default state), speed is
displayed in Hz (otherwise, RPM).
Motor Rated Frequency
P-03
Motor Rated Speed
P-04
Minimum Speed
P-05
Set P06 to the maximum speed and P05 to the minimum speed. These
limits can also be negative for reverse speeds. If a non-zero minimum
speed is set in P05, the motor will ramp to this minimum speed at the rate
set in P10 as soon as the drive is enabled.
Note: When P-04 is set to a value other than “0”, the value displayed will be
in RPM.
Maximum Speed
P-06
Start/Stop Source
P-07
Set as required by the application.
Speed Ref Source
P-08
Set as required by the application.
Stop Mode
P-09
Select method of stopping required when drive is disabled.
Accel
P-10
Adjust as needed for your application. Short Acceleration or Deceleration
times may cause excessive motor current and may result in it tripping or the
motor stalling.
Decel
P-11
Analog Input Format
P-17
Set as required by the application (0-10V, 0-20mA, 4-20mA)
Voltage Boost
P-18
Any hard to start load will benefit from voltage boost. Permits a boost of up
to 20% of full motor voltage to be applied.
