clearly-structured graphics. 

Important characteristics of the FWC5:

- 0 - 10V output for speed control
- Simple viewing of the current measurement values
- Analysis and monitoring of the system by means of statistical graphics,etc.
- Extensive setting menus with explanations
- Menu block can be activated to prevent unintentional setting changes
- Resetting to previously selected values or factory settings
