Frequency Arrival Signal
Frequency Arrival [FA1] and [FA2] signals indicate when the output frequency acceler-
ates or decelerates to arrive at a constant frequency. Refer to the figure below. Frequency
Arrival [FA1] (left graph) turns on when the output frequency gets within 0.5 Hz below
or 1.5 Hz above the target constant frequency. The timing is modified by a small 60 ms
delay. Note the active low nature of the signal, due to the open collector output.
Frequency Arrival [FA2] (right graph) uses thresholds for acceleration and deceleration
to provide more timing flexibility than [FA1]. Parameter C42 sets the arrival frequency
threshold for acceleration, and parameter C43 sets the threshold for deceleration. This
signal also is active low and has a 60 ms delay after the frequency thresholds are crossed.

Description
01 FA1 Frequency arrival
type 1 signal
ON when output to motor is at the set frequency
OFF when output to motor is off, or in any accelera-
tion or deceleration ramp
02 FA2 Frequency arrival
type 2 signal
ON when output to motor is at or above the set fre-
quency thresholds for, even if in acceleration or
deceleration ramps
OFF when output to motor is off, or during accelera-
tion or deceleration before the respective thresh-
olds are crossed
Valid for outputs:
11, 12, AL0 – AL2
Required settings:
(none)
Notes:
•
At the time of acceleration, an output signal at a
frequency between the set frequency - 0.5 Hz to
+ 1.5 Hz is turned on.
•
At the time of deceleration, an output signal at a
frequency between the set frequency + 0.5 Hz to
-1.5 Hz is turned on.
•
The delay time of the output signal is 60 ms
(nominal).
