Setting
• Poor motor torque
and speed response
• Motor hunting and
oscillation at speeds
between 10 and 40 Hz
AFR Gain
(n2-01)
• Gradually reduce the setting in 0.05 increments if motor torque
and speed response are too slow.
• Gradually increase the setting in 0.05 increments if motor hunting
and oscillation occur.

• Poor motor torque
and speed response
• Motor hunting and
oscillation at speeds
between 10 and 40 Hz
AFR Time Constant 1
(n2-02)
• Gradually reduce the setting in 10 ms increments and check the
performance to improve motor torque speed response.
• Gradually increase the setting by 50 ms increments and check the
performance if motor hunting and oscillation occur as a result of
load inertia.
Note:
Ensure that n2-02 ≤ n2-03. When changing n2-02, set
C4-02 (Torque Compensation Primary Delay Time
Constant 1) accordingly.

AFR Time Constant 2
(n2-03)
• Gradually increase the setting in 50 ms increments if overvoltage
occurs.
• Gradually reduce the setting in 10 ms increments if response is
slow.
Note:
Ensure that n2-02 ≤ n2-03. When making adjustments to
n2-03, increase the value of C4-06 (Torque
Compensation Primary Delay Time 2) proportionally.

• Gradually increase the setting in 10 ms increments and check the
performance if overvoltage trips occur.
• Gradually reduce the setting in 2 ms increments and check the
performance if response is slow.
Note:
Ensure that C4-02 ≤ C4-06. When changing C4-06
(Torque Compensation Primary Delay Time Constant 2),
increase the value of n2-03 proportionally.

• Gradually reduce the setting in 2 ms increments and check the
performance to improve motor torque speed response.
• Gradually increase the setting in 10 ms increments if motor

Note:
Ensure that C4-02 ≤ C4-06. When making adjustments
to C4-02, increase the AFR time constant (n2-02)
proportionally.

• Gradually increase the setting in 10 ms increments if speed is
unstable.

• Gradually increase the setting in 0.1 ms increments if speed is too
slow.
• Gradually reduce the setting in 0.1 ms increments if speed is too
fast.

• Motor noise
• Motor hunting and
oscillation occur at
speeds below 10 Hz
Carrier Frequency
Selection (C6-02)
• Increase the carrier frequency if there is too much motor noise.
• Reduce the carrier frequency if motor hunting and oscillation
occur at low speeds.
Note: The default setting for the carrier frequency depends on
the drive capacity (o2-04) and Duty Selection (C6-01).

• Poor motor torque at
low speeds
• Poor speed response
• Motor instability at
start
Mid Output Voltage A
(E1-08)
Minimum Output
Voltage (E1-10)
• Increase the setting if motor torque and speed response are too
slow.
• Reduce the setting if the motor exhibits excessive instability at
start-up.
Note: When working with a relatively light load, increasing
this value too much can cause overtorque.

<1> Default setting value is dependent on parameter A1-02, Control Method Selection, and o2-04, Drive Model Selection.
<2> Default settings change after changing the control method (A1-02) or selecting a different V/f pattern (E1-03).
When using OLV, leave the torque compensation gain (C4-01) at its default setting of 1.00.
