without connecting the control signal terminals by simply 
switching the control level and the setpoint value input.
The following brief instructions indicate the required steps. 
Brief Instructions
The brief instructions (see the figure on Page 55) provide a 
graphical description of the few steps necessary up to the 
motor start.
●
The frequency inverter carries out a self-test when the 
supply voltage is applied. The backlight of the LCD display 
is switched on and all segments are briefly actuated
When the MMX is switched on for the first time, it activates 
the Quickstart Wizard to guide you step-by-step through the 
drive parameters (alternating display of P1.1 = 1).
First read “Parameters” starting on Page 60.
You can access the parameters when P1.1 = 0. Pressing 
[BACK/RESET] [ ] [OK] leads you to the operating data 
display MON. This is always displayed after the power supply 
is switched off.
The frequency inverter is ready to start when there is an 
alternating display M1.1   0.00 Hz.
●
The frequency inverter is now ready for operation, and is 
factory set for activation and frequency setting via the 
control signal terminals (I/0). The STOP button is active in 
this mode
Changes are only possible when there is flashing at the entry 
digit (press OK button).
●
The direction can be changed via the two arrow buttons 
(< or >, cursor)
●
The drive is factory set to stop at 0 Hz and can then be run 
in the opposite direction by pressing the START button. 
Parameter P6.14 = 0 must be set in order to change 
direction without a stop
The STOP function can be set via P6.8:
