● Motor Overload Protection Gain 
In order to effectively protect the motor under different loads, the overload protection 
gain FE.01 should be set according to the current output overload capacity. The overload 
protection of the motor is an inverse time curve.

Figure 6-9-1 Motor Overlaod Inverse Time Curve 
When the overload protection gain FE.01 is set to 100%, the inverse time limit 
characteristic of motor overload protection is defaulted to:    motor overload fault will occur 
after running continuously for 10 minutes under the condition of 150% motor rated current; 
motor overload fault will occur after running continuously for 80 minutes under the 
condition of 110% motor rated current. 
● Motor Overload Early Alarm 
Motor overload early alarm function is used to output warning signal to control system 
through DO before motor overload fault protection. The early alarm coefficient is used to 
determine the level of early alarm before motor overload protection, and the larger the 
value, the smaller the early alarm amount.   
When the cumulative output current of the inverter is greater than the overload time 
(the cumulative value of the inverse time curve of motor overload protection) × the 
overload alarm level FE.03 of the motor, the DO will output the effective signal of motor
