The Acceleration Time is used to determine the time required for the AC motor drive to ramp from 0 Hz to 
Maximum Output Frequency (Pr.01-00). The rate is linear unless S-Curve is “Enabled”, see Pr.01-16. 
The Deceleration Time is used to determine the time required for the AC motor drive to decelerate from the 
Maximum Output Frequency (Pr.01-00) down to 0 Hz. The rate is linear unless S-Curve is “Enabled.”, see 
Pr.01-17. 
The Acceleration/Deceleration Time 1, 2, 3, 4 are selected according to the Multi-Function Input Terminals 
Settings. See Pr.04-04 to Pr.04-09 for more details. 
In the diagram shown below, the Acceleration/Deceleration Time of the AC motor drive is the time between 0 
Hz to Maximum Output Frequency (Pr.01-00). Suppose the Maximum Output Frequency is 60 Hz, Minimum 
Output Frequency (Pr.01-05) is 1.0 Hz, and Acceleration/Deceleration Time is 10 seconds. The actual time 
for the AC motor drive to accelerate from start-up to 60 Hz and to decelerate from 60Hz to 1.0Hz is in this 
case 9.83 seconds. ((60-1) * 10 /60=9.83secs).
