6.2 Motor Performance Fine-Tuning
This section offers helpful information for counteracting oscillation, hunting, or other problems that occur while
performing a trial run. Refer to the section below that corresponds to the motor control method used.
Note: This section describes parameters that are commonly edited and may be set incorrectly. Consult YASKAWA for more
information on detailed settings and fine-tuning the drive.

Problem
<1> Default setting value is dependent on parameter A1-02, Control Method Selection, and o2-04, Drive Model Selection.
<2> Default settings change when the Control Method is changed (A1-02) or a different V/f pattern is selected using parameter E1-03.
<3> ASR in V/f Control with PG only controls the output frequency, and therefore does not allow the high gain settings possible when using Close
Loop Vector control.
<4> Refer to C5: Automatic Speed Regulator (ASR) on page 190 for details on Automatic Speed Regulator (ASR).

Setting
Motor hunting and oscillation at speeds
between 10 and 40 Hz
Hunting Prevention Gain
(n1-02)
• If insufficient motor torque relative to t
he size of the load causes hunting,
reduce the setting.
• When motor hunting and oscillation occu
r with a light load, increase the
setting.
• Lower this setting if hunting occurs when
using a motor with a relatively
low inductance, such as a high-frequency motor or a motor with a larger
frame size.
1.00 0.10 to 2.00
• Motor noise
• Motor hunting and oscillation at
spe
eds up to 40 Hz
Carrier Frequency Selection
(C6-02)
• If the motor noise is too loud, i
ncrease the carrier frequency.
• When motor hunting and oscillation occu
r at speeds up to 40 Hz, lower
the carrier frequency.
• The default setting for the carrier freq
uency depends on the drive
capacity (o2-04) and the Duty Selection (C6-01).

Note:
The recommended setting value is for 200 V class drives. Double
this value when using a 400 V class drive.

Slip Compensation Gain
(C3-01)
After setting the motor-rated current (E2-01), m
otor-rated slip (E2-02), and
motor no-load current (E2-03), adjust the slip compensation gain (C3-01).
