introduction to macros
Unidrive operation can be simplified by using pre-
configured application macros. These macros are held in
the internal memory of the drive and are user selectable.
Macro summary
Macro 1 – Easy Mode
Easy mode defines the most commonly used
features with only 10 parameters. These parameters
are numbered 0.01 to 0.10
Macro Function

0.10 3.02 Speed feedback
Macro 2 – Motorised Potentiometer
With this function it is possible to emulate a
motorised potentiometer within the Unidrive by simply
supplying two logic input signals to increase or
decrease the “potentiometer”. The output of the
“potentiometer” may be routed to control any of the
drive’s non-bit parameters such as speed, torque or
current limit. The function may be configured to reset
upon power cycling or to memorise its value.
