Chap. 4 RUNNING THE MOTOR
The MD-/LD-mode inverter is subject to restrictions on the function code data setting range and internal processing as listed
below.

In the MD/LD mode, a value out
of the range, if specified,
automatically changes to the
maximum value allowable in the
LD mode.

Switching the drive mode
between HD, MD and LD with
function code F80 automatically
initializes the F44 data to the
value specified at left.

In the MD/LD mode, if the
maximum frequency exceeds
120 Hz, the actual output
frequency is internally limited to
120 Hz.

Switching to the MD/LD mode does not automatically change the motor rated capacity (P02*) to the one for the motor with one
rank higher capacity, so configure the P02* data to match the applied motor rating as required.

V/f control with slip compensation inactive
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.
V/f control with slip compensation active
Applying any load to an induction motor causes a rotational slip due to the motor characteristics, decreasing the motor rotation.
The inverter’s slip compensation function first presumes the slip value of the motor based on the motor torque generated and
raises the output frequency to compensate for the decrease in motor rotation. This prevents the motor from decreasing the
rotation due to the slip.
That is, this function is effective for improving the motor speed control accuracy.
The compensation value is specified by combination of function codes P12
*
(Rated slip frequency), P09
*
(Slip compensation
gain for driving) and P11
*
(Slip compensation gain for braking).
