Auto-Tuning
The IMPULSE
®
•G+ & VG+ Series 4 can adapt to nearly all motors manufactured worldwide with its
automatic tuning function. The inverter asks the user for minimal motor information, and then guides
the user through a quick simple tuning process. Ideally, perform a standard Auto-Tune with the motor
uncoupled from the load. When the motor cannot be decoupled, perform a static or non-rotating
Auto-Tune.
NOTE:
Contact Magnetek’s service department if an auto-tune can not be performed.
