Reference Hold
The reference hold or dwell function is used to temporarily hold the output frequency
at a set reference, for a set time, during the acceleration and deceleration process.
Use this function when driving a permanent magnet motor, or a motor with a heavy
starting load. The pause in acceleration allows the magnets in a permanent magnet
motor to synchronize with the stator field of the motor, thus reducing traditionally high
starting current.
Setting Range:
0.00 to 100.00%
Factory Default:
0.00%
Sets the dwell frequency reference during acceleration in units of 0.01%.
Setting Range:
0.0 to 10.0s
Factory Default:
0.0s
Sets the amount of time that the frequency reference “dwells” during acceleration in
units of 0.1s.
Setting Range:
0.00 to 100.00%
Factory Default:
0.00%
Sets the dwell frequency reference during deceleration in units of 0.01%.
Setting Range:
0.0 to 10.0s
Factory Default:
0.0s
Sets the amount of time that the frequency reference “dwells” during deceleration in
units of 0.1s.
