Digital input 
 
  For inputting a pulse train through the digital input terminal [X7] 
• Inputting from a pulse generator with an open collector transistor output 
Stray capacity on the wiring between the pulse generator and the inverter may disable transmission of the 
pulse train. As a countermeasure against this problem, insert a pull-up resistor between the open collector 
output signal (terminal [X7]) and the power source terminal (terminal [PLC]) if the switch selects the 
SINK mode input; insert a pull-down resistor between the output signal and the digital common terminal 
(terminal [CM]) if the switch selects the SOURCE mode input. 
A recommended pull-up/down resistor is 1kΩ 2 W. Check if the pulse train is correctly transmitted 
because stray capacity is significantly affected by the wire types and wiring conditions. 
[FM1] 
[FM2] 
Analog 
monitor 
Both terminals output monitor signals for analog DC voltage (0 to +10 V) or analog DC 
current (+4 to +20 mA). The output form (VO/IO) for each of [FM1] and [FM2] can be 
switched with the slide switches on the control PCB and the function codes, as listed 
below.

The signal content can be selected from the following with function codes F31 and F35. 
• Output frequency  • Output current  • Output voltage 
• Output torque  • Load factor  • Input power 
• PID feedback amount  • Speed (PG feedback value)  • DC link bus voltage 
• Universal AO  • Motor output  • Calibration 
• PID command  • PID output 
*  Input impedance of the external device: Min. 5kΩ (at 0 to 10 VDC output) 
  (While the terminal is outputting 0 to 10 VDC, it is capable of driving up to two analog 
voltmeters with 10 kΩ impedance.) 
*  Input impedance of the external device: Max. 500Ω (at 4 to 20 mA DC output) 
*  Adjustable range of the gain: 0 to 300%

common 
Two common terminals for analog input and output signals. 
These terminals are electrically isolated from terminals [CM] and [CMY].
