Programming Reference
8-9
If F-09 = 0, the output is energized only when the RUN LED is on.
If F-09 = 1, the output remains energized until the fault is cleared by pressing the 
STOP/RESET key (in local operation) or by using the remote IET reset signal (for 
remote operation).
If F-09 = 2, the output is energized when the drive is running and at speed.
.
The carrier frequency controls the width of the pulse and keeps the current smooth to 
the motor. This parameter can compensate for acoustic noise, heating, and other 
current problems by adjusting the switching frequency of the transistors in the inverter 
section.
Keeping the carrier frequency at 4kHz maximizes the continuous power rating of the 
drive with, generally, an acceptable acoustic noise level from the motor. Increasing the 
carrier frequency reduces the acoustic noise, but in some applications this can result 
in derating of the drive output amps. (Refer to table 2.2 for the derated ratings at the 
various carrier frequencies).
Normally, the maximum speed reference (the amount of reference at maximum speed, 
F-04) is either 10 VDC or 20 mA. The reference gain is used to scale the speed 
reference to another value (for example, 9.5 VDC or 19 mA). Enter the parameter 
value in percent of full scale reference. 
F-09 Configurable Output Relay Select
This parameter 
specifies the type of 
status indication the 
output relay contacts 
provide (terminals 14, 
15, and 16 on the drive 
terminal strip).
Parameter Range:
Default Setting:
Step Size:
0 = Output relay is energized to show state of drive 
running.
1 = Output relay is energized to show state of active fault 
(IET).
2 = Output relay is energized to show state of drive 
running at  speed.
