p1300 = 0
The inverter equalizes the voltage drops
across the stator resistance. Recom-
mended for motors with a low power rat-
ing.
Precondition: You have set the motor data
according to the rating plate and have
performed the motor identification after
the basic commissioning.

Optimizing motor starting
Setting the voltage boost for U/f control
After selection of the V/f characteristic, no further settings are required in most applications.
In the following circumstances, the motor cannot accelerate to its speed setpoint after it has
been switched on:
● Load moment of inertia too high
● Load torque too large
● Ramp-up time p1120 too short
To improve the starting behavior o
f the
motor, the V/f characteristic can be
raised at low speeds.
The inverter raises the voltage in a
c-
cordance with the starting currents
p1310
… p1312.

t-
ing voltage boost using a linear chara
c-
teristic as an example.
