VFD68 Variable Frequency Drives (230 or 460 VAC)
22
0.5–4.5 VDC Ratiometric P499 Transducer
The default parameter values (Table 19 on page 27) on the VFD68 drive are configured to operate a
condenser fan motor on an R410 condensing unit, using a P499RCP-107 or P499RAP-107 ratiometric
transducer (or transducers). Wire one transducer for single circuit condensing systems. Wire two transducers
for dual circuit condensing systems (Figure 14).
The VFD68 has the ability to control motor speed using the higher input signal value of two
voltage
inputs
when you configure AI1 and AI2 as the same model transducer. For the
high-input signal select
application
with two transducers (Figure 14 on page 22 or Figure 15 on page 23), use the parameter values in Table 16
Adjusting the Default Parameters
For high-pressure refrigerants other than R410a, you must calculate and change the
C x
parameters. For
medium and low pressure refrigerants, you must determine the proper P499R transducer and then calculate
and change the
C x
parameters.

IMPORTANT:
If using two voltage input devices, both devices must be identical.
Do not
use input
devices with different ranges and operating characteristics.
