Motor control (MCTRL)
Selection of the operating mode
In case of the V/f characteristic control, the motor voltage of the inverter is detected by
means of a linear or square-law characteristic depending on the field frequency or motor
speed to be generated. The voltage follows a preselected characteristic.

Principle of a linear and quadratic V/f characteristic
Generally, two different characteristic shapes can be defined:
Linear V/f characteristic for drives with a constantly running and speed-independent
load torque
Quadratic characteristic for drives with a load torque increasing quadratically with the
speed. Quadratic V/f characteristics are mainly used in centrifugal pumps and fan
drives.
