Motor Potentiometer macro
This macro provides a cost-effective interface for PLCs that vary the speed of the 
drive using only digital signals. To enable the macro, set the value of parameter 9902 
to 4 (MOTOR POT).
For the parameter default values, see section Default parameter values with different 
macros on page 65. If you use other than the default connections presented below, 
see section I/O terminals on page 34.

If DI3 and DI4 are both active or inactive, the 
frequency reference is unchanged.
The existing frequency reference is stored 
during stop and power down.
