Extended Menu Structure
VLT Series 3500 menu structure, referred to as the
Extended Menu, is divided into seven groups. These
contain parameters that allow performance to be
optimized and efficiency to be maximized. Although the
default parameters are acceptable for most applications,
they may not be ideal for your specific application. For
optimum performance, review all parameters and reset
those that are not optimum for your application.
The parameters of the Extended Menu are divided into
seven groups, identified below.
Parameter groups:
0

Parameter Numbers
Each parameter number consists of three digits. The digit
to the left indicates the group. In each group, parameters
are numbered from 0 and up. For example, the
parameters in group 1 are numbered 100, 101, 102, etc.
Accessing the Various Parameters
When initially powered up, the display is in the Display
mode. Press “Menu” and “+” simultaneously to go to the
Extended Menu. The flashing number at the left of the
second line of the display identifies the group accessed.
Use the “+” and “–” keys to scroll through the menu
groups. Press “Menu” again to access a specific
parameter within a group. The flashing number will now
be at the parameter within the group. Use the “+” and “–”
keys to scroll through the list of parameter numbers.
Changing the Parameter Data Value
When a parameter has been selected and the data value
is to be changed, press the “Data” key and then “+” or
“–”. The data value can be either a number or text. For
numeric values, the digit to be changed can be selected
by pressing the “Data” key as required. If a parameter in
the current set is changed, the parameter change
immediately affects the drive’s operation. The Data mode
is exited by pressing “Menu” or by waiting 20 seconds.
The selected data value will then be saved to the
EEPROM.
NOTE: The motor must be stopped before the
data values of certain parameters are changed.
Leaving Data Mode
The data value is stored by pressing “Menu”.
