The drive inverter can be damaged if the temperature is too high. The inverter can also be damaged or the lifetime of the power devices reduced, if the temperature ripple of the devices is too high. Auto-switching Frequency Change
(05.035) defines the action taken if the drive inverter becomes too hot or the temperature ripple becomes too high.
Enabled:
If the inverter becomes too hot or the ripple temperature is higher than the level defined by Maximum Inverter Temperature Ripple (05.039) the switching frequency is reduced in an attempt to prevent tripping.
Disabled:
The switching frequency is not reduced, and so the drive will trip if the inverter is too hot or the temperature ripple is too high.
No Ripple Detect:
The switching frequency is reduced if the inverter temperature, but not the temperature ripple is too high. If the temperature ripple exceeds the level defined by Maximum Inverter Temperature Ripple (05.039) then the drive will trip.
The switching frequency is changed in steps defined by Auto-switching Frequency Step Size (05.036). For example with a switching frequency of 16kHz and a step size of two, the frequency will be reduced to 8kHz, then 4kHz etc.
Minimum Switching Frequency (05.038) defines the minimum switching frequency that the system will attempt to use. If the switching frequency needs to switch to a lower level, then the drive will trip.
If Minimum Switching Frequency is changed the new value will only become active when Switching Frequency is at or above the minimum value.

Maximum Inverter Temperature Ripple (05.039) defines the maximum inverter temperature ripple allowed before the switching frequency is reduced. See Auto-switching Frequency Change (05.035).
Parameter 05.040 Spin Start Boost

Coding RW
Spin Start Boost (05.040) is used by the algorithm that detects the speed of a spinning motor when the drive is enabled and Catch A Spinning Motor (06.009) ≥ 1. For most motors Spin Start Boost (05.040) does not need to be changed
from the default value, but for some larger motors Spin Start Boost (05.040) may need to be increased. If Spin Start Boost (05.040) is too small the drive will detect zero speed whatever the speed of the motor, and if Spin Start Boost
(05.040) is too large the motor may accelerate away from standstill when the drive is enabled.
