Chapter 4  Operation Instructions 
4.1  Notice 
In the follow-up sections, you may encounter the terms 
describing the control, running and status of drive many 
times. Please read this section carefully. It will help you 
to understand and use the functions to be discussed 
correctly. 
4.1.1    The Drive’s Control Modes 
It defines the physical channels by which drive receives 
operating commands like START, STOP, FWD, REV, 
JOG and others. 
Panel control: The drive is controlled by RUN, STOP 
and JOG keys on the operation panel; 
Terminal control: The drive is controlled by terminals 
FWD, REV and COM (2-wire mode), or by terminal Xi 
(3-wire mode); 
Host control: The operations such as START and STOP 
can be controlled by host PC. 
The control modes can be selected by parameter F0.03, 
PANEL/REMOTE key and ENTER/DATA key on the 
operation panel and multi-function input terminal (No.27, 
28 and 29 can be selected by F7.00~F7.07).   
 Warning: 
The user must ensure that the control mode selected is 
suitable for the application. Wrong selection of control 
mode may cause damage to equipment or human injury! 
4.1.2  Reference Selector 
In common operating modes, EV2000 has 6 possible 
ways to input reference frequency, the reference 
frequency can be input by: 
▲ and ▼  keys on the panel; 
Terminals UP/DN; 
Serial port; 
Analog VCI; 
Analog CCI; 
Pulse terminal (PULSE) 
How to set Frequency 
The output frequency is decided after calculating the 
values from one or more of the above 6 frequency 
setting methods, which involves the concept of main and 
auxiliary reference frequency.   
Main reference frequency: set by F0.00, multi-speed 
(MS) or close loop control.   
The main reference frequency is decided by the priority 
of running mode. The priority level is Jog>close 
loop>PLC>MS (multi-speed)>common running, e.g. if 
the drive is running in MS mode, the primary reference 
frequency is MS frequency.   
Auxiliary reference frequency: set by F9.01~F9.04. 
Preset frequency: the sum of main and auxiliary 
frequency multiply a factor, which is set in F9.05 and 
F9.06. Please refer to F9.05, F9.06 and Fig. 5-59 in 
chapter 5. 
4.1.3  Operating Status 
There are 3 operating status: stopping, motor 
parameters auto-tuning, and operating. 
Stopping status: After the drive is switched on and 
initialized, if no operating command is accepted or the 
stopping command is executed, then the drive enters 
stopping status. 
Operating status: The drive enters operating status after 
it receives the operating command. 
Motor parameters auto-tuning status: If there is an 
operating command after FH.09 is set to 1 or 2, the drive 
then enters motor parameters auto-tuning status, and 
then enters stopping status after auto-tuning process is 
over. 
4.1.4  Operating Modes 
EV2000 has 5 kinds of operating modes which can be 
sequenced according to the priority: Jog>Close loop 
operation>PLC operation>Multi-step speed 
operation>Simple operation, as shown in Fig. 4-1. 
Jog: 
When the drive is in stopping status, it will operate 
according to Jog frequency after it receives the Jog 
operation command(or after the JOG key is pressed). 
See explanations of F3.13~F3.16 for details. 
Close-loop operation: 
If the close-loop operating function is enabled(F5.00=1), 
the drive will select the close-loop operation mode, that 
is, it will perform PI regulation according to the reference 
and feedback values (See explanations of Parameter
