  Use Pr.04.00–04.03 for applications that use the potentiometer signal on the digital keypad to adjust the 
setting frequency. The potentiometer is not an external device, but you need to use it when setting 
parameters. Refer to the following examples to know how to use it. 
  As shown in the left figure below, operating the potentiometer on the digital keypad to the leftmost means the 
minimum value that the lowest voltage 0 V
DC
 corresponds to. As shown in the right figure below, operating the 
potentiometer on the digital keypad to the rightmost means the maximum value that the highest voltage 5 V
DC
 
corresponds to. 
 
 
Example 1:  
You set Pr.02.00 to 4 (the master frequency command comes from keypad potentiometer), set Pr.04.00~04.03 
to defaults, and then you can set the main frequency command through the keypad potentiometer.
