6. Parameters
6.1. Parameter Group 1 – Basic Parameters
Default parameter values for Horse Power rated drives are shown in brackets
Following a factory reset, or when installing a drive for the first time, only Group 1 Parameter access is available. To allow access to Parameters
Groups 0, 2, 3 and 4, Parameters P1-14 and P2-37 must contain the same value. The factory set value for P2-37 = 101
Maximum Frequency /
Speed
Maximum speed limit – Hz or rpm.
If P1-10 >0, the value entered is in Rpm
Minimum Frequency /
Speed
Minimum speed limit – Hz or rpm.
If P1-10 >0, the value entered is in Rpm
Acceleration ramp time from 0 to base speed (P-1-
09) in seconds
Deceleration ramp time from base speed (P1-09)
to standstill in seconds. When set to zero, fastest
possible ramp time without trip is activated
0 : Ramp to stop
(brown-out ride-through)
1 : Coast to stop
2 : Ramp to stop (fast stop)
0 : If the mains supply is lost, the drive will try to
continue running by reducing the speed of the
load using the load as a generator.
1 : When the enable signal is removed from the
drive, the motor will coast (freewheel) to stop
2 : If the mains supply is lost, the drive will ramp to
stop using the P2-25 decel ramp time
When enabled, automatically reduces applied
motor voltage on light load. Minimum value is 50%
of nominal
0, 20 to 250
0, 20 to 500
Rated (nameplate) voltage of the motor (Volts).
Value limited to 250V for low voltage drives.
Setting to zero disables voltage compensation
25% -100% of drive rated current
Rated (nameplate) current of the motor
Rated (nameplate) frequency of the motor
When non-zero, all speed related parameters are
displayed in rpm
Sets the speed the drive runs at when Preset
Speed 1 is selected
Terminal / Keypad /
PID
Drive Control Mode
Selection
0 : Terminal control
1 : Keypad control – fwd only
2 : Keypad control fwd and rev
3 : PID Control
4 : Modbus Control
Primary Control Mode of the drive.
0 : Terminal control
1 : Uni-directional keypad control. Keypad START
button does not reverse direction.
2 : Bi-directional keypad control. Keypad START
button toggles between forward and reverse.
3 : User PI control with external feedback signal
4 : Modbus RTU Control
Previous 4 trips stored in order of occurrence, with
the most recent first.
Press UP or DOWN to step through all four.
The most recent trip is always displayed first.
UV trip is only stored once.
Set to “101” (default) for extended menu access.
Change code in P2-37 to prevent unauthorised
access to the Extended Parameter Set
