Current Detection Speed Search (b3-24 = 0)
Current Detection Speed Search detects the motor speed by looking at motor current in IM motors. When Speed Search is
started it reduces the output frequency starting from either the maximum output frequency or the frequency reference while
increasing the output voltage using the time set in parameter L2-04. As long as the current is higher than the level set to b3-02,
the output frequency is lowered using the time constant set to b3-03. If the current falls below b3-02, the drive assumes that
the output frequency and motor speed are the same and accelerates or decelerates to the frequency reference.
Be aware that sudden acceleration may occur when using this method of Speed Search with relatively light loads.
The following time chart illustrates Current Detection Speed Search operation after a momentary power loss (L2-01 must be
set to 1 or 2):

Note: After power is restored, the drive waits until the time set to b3-05 has passed before performing Speed Search. Thereby the Speed Search may
start not at the end of L2-03 but even later.
When Speed Search is applied automatically with the Run command, the drive waits for the minimum baseblock time set to
L2-03 before starting Speed Search. If L2-03 is lower than the time set to parameter b3-05, then b3-05 is used as the wait time.

Notes on Using Current Detection Type Speed Search
• Shorten the Speed Search deceleration time set to b3-03 if an oL1 fault occurs while performing Current Detection Speed
Search.
• Current Detection Speed Search is not available when using OLV Control for PM motors.
• Increase the minimum baseblock time set to L2-03 if an overcurrent or overvoltage fault occurs when performing Speed
Search after power is restored following a momentary power loss.
