Parameter

Description

How to set

H30

Motor Power in kW

Set to match motor nameplate - eg. 0.75 for 0.75kW, 1.5 for 1.5kW etc.

H31

Number of Motor Poles

Set to match motor nameplate - eg. 2700-3000RPM = 2, 1350-1500RPM = 4 etc.

H32

Motor Slip in Hz

Calculate: (Motor Frequency - ((Motor RPM x Poles) / 120))

H33

Motor Full Load Current in Amps

Set to match motor nameplate - eg. 4.7

H34

Motor No-Load Current in Amps

See section 5 for details of how to correctly set this value.

How to set

F21

Max Output Frequency in Hz

Default is 60. Change to 50 for 50Hz motor.

F22

Base Frequency

Default is 60. Change to 50 for 50Hz motor.

F24

Enable Max/Min Frequency

Default is 0 (off). Set to 1 to enable parameters F25 and F26 for future use.

F27

Torque Boost

Default is 0 (off). Set to 1 to improve starting Torque.

F50

Thermal Overload

Default is 0 (off). Set to 1 to enable Thermal Overload Protection.

The iC5 contains a number of settings which
can be changed to tailor it for use in a wide
range of applications. These settings are
known as parameters.

Parameters are typically referred to by code or
number (eg. H21 = Max Output Frequency)
with a description available in the manual.

The parameters contain critical information
essential to the correct operation of the iC5.
Therefore, they should at least be checked by
the user before it is operated for the first time.

The parameters listed in section 4 are intended
to provide a starting point to allow for basic
operation of the iC5 Inverter.

4.3 Parameters in Function Group 2 - “H”

Press left/right to find H0 then up/down to find parameter number

4. Parameters to set before use

See section 6 for an explanation of Parameter Groups

and to learn how to set a parameter value.

Set the following parameters to allow the iC5 to
run in standard mode with Run, Stop and
Speed Control from the integral keypad.

If any of the parameters have been changed
previously, follow the procedure in section 12
to reset the iC5 to Factory Defaults.

4.2 Parameters in Function Group 1 - “F”

Press left/right to find F0 then up/down to find parameter number

4.1 Parameters in the Drive Group

Press left/right to find 0.0 then up/down to find parameter number
