5.5.2 Start-Up
Prerequisite:
These instructions assume that the variable frequency drive has its default
settings at the beginning of the commissioning process.
▶ Make sure that the motor is connected correctly and will not pose any
hazards when running.
The motor must have a load during the commissioning process so that it
will be possible to determine the right values.
▶ Enter the password in P-14 (default setting: 101) in order to allow access
to “parameter level 2.”
▶ Set the values for the rated motor operating voltage (P-07) and rated
motor operational current (P-08) parameters to the values on the
motor nameplate.
5.5.2.1 V-Boost (P-11)
▶ Set the t-Boost (P-33) parameter to the maximum possible value
(150.0 s). This will allow the voltage to increase slowly and make it
possible to easily adjust the start voltage and the startup behavior.
▶ Start the drive. Press the OK button as many times as necessary until
the current, “A…xxx”, is displayed.
The current should increase quickly, stabilize after a few seconds, and
then start increasing slowly. Monitor the current’s value for approx. 3 to
5 seconds after starting.
• If the current is less than 80 % of the rated motor current:
▶ Switch off the drive.
▶ Increase the value in P-11.
▶ Repeat the test.
• If the current is greater than 90 % of the rated motor current:
▶ Switch off the drive.
▶ Reduce the value in P-11.
▶ Repeat the test.
When P-11 is set correctly, the current should be 80 to 90 % of the rated
motor current for 3 to 5 seconds after starting.

It is possible for the motor not to rotate during the adjustment
procedure. You can safely ignore this, as the procedure is used
only to determine the correct value for V-Boost (P-11).
