4.6.1   V/f control with slip compensation inactive for IM 
Under this control, the inverter controls a motor with the voltage and frequency according to the V/f pattern specified 
by function codes. This control disables all automatically controlled features such as the slip compensation, so no 
unpredictable output fluctuation results, enabling stable operation with constant output frequency. 
 
4.6.2   Vector control without speed sensor (Dynamic torque vector) for IM 
To get the maximal torque out of a motor, this control calculates the motor torque for the load applied and uses it to 
optimize the voltage and current vector output. 
Selecting this control automatically enables the auto torque boost and slip compensation function. 
This control is effective for improving the system response to external disturbances such as load fluctuation, and the 
motor speed control accuracy. 
Note that the inverter may not respond to a rapid load fluctuation since this control is an open-loop V/f control that 
does not perform the current control, unlike the vector control. The advantages of this control include larger 
maximum torque per output current than that the vector control. 
 
Since slip compensation  and  vector control without speed sensor (dynamic torque vector) use motor 
parameters, the following conditions should be satisfied; otherwise, full control performance may not be 
obtained.
or less. If it is longer, the 
inverter may not control the motor due to leakage current flowing through stray capacitance to the 
ground or between wires. Especially, small capacity inverters whose rated current is also small may be
