Description
The "Flying restart" function (this is enabled using P1200) allows the inverter to be switched
to a motor which is still spinning. If the inverter was to be powered-up without using the flying
restart function, there would be a high possibility that a fault with overcurrent F0001 would
occur. The reason for this is that the flux must first be established in the motor and the V/f
control or closed-loop Vector control must be set corresponding to the actual motor speed.
The inverter frequency is synchronized with the motor frequency using the flying restart
function.
When the inverter is normally powered-up it is assumed that the motor is stationary and the
inverter accelerates the motor from a standstill and the speed is ramped-up to the setpoint
which has been entered. However, in many cases this condition is not fulfilled. A fan motor is
a typical example. When the inverter is powered-down the air flowing through the fan can
cause it to rotate in any direction.
