2-5-4 Monitoring Parameters with the Display
After using the keypad for parameter editing,
it's a good idea to switch the inverter from
Program Mode to Monitor Mode. The PRG
LED will be OFF, and the Hertz or Ampere
LED indicates the display units.
For the powerup test, monitor the motor
speed indirectly by viewing the inverter's out-
put frequency. The output frequency must not
be confused with base frequency (50/60 Hz) of the motor, or the carrier fre-
quency (switching frequency of the inverter, in the kHz range). The monitoring
functions are in the "D" list, located near the top left of the "Keypad Navigation
Map" on page 49.
Output frequency (speed) set – Resuming keypad operation from the previ-
ous table, follow the steps below.
2-5-5 Running the Motor
If you have programmed all the parameters up to this point, you're ready to
run the motor! First, review this checklist:
1. Verify the power LED is ON. If not, check the power connections.
2. Verify the Run Key Enable LED is ON. If it is OFF, check the A002 setting.
3. Verify the PRG LED is OFF. If it is ON, review the instructions above.
4. Make sure the motor is disconnected from any mechanical load.
5. Now, press the RUN key on the keypad. The RUN LED will turn ON.
6. Press the key for a few seconds. The motor should start turning.
