V/f Pattern Settings (E1-03)
The drive uses a V/f pattern to adjust the output voltage relative to the frequency reference. There are 15 different predefined
V/f patterns (setting 0 to E) from which to select, each with varying voltage profiles, saturation levels (frequency at which
maximum voltage is reached), and maximum frequencies. Additionally, one custom V/f pattern is available (setting F) that
requires the user to create the pattern using parameters E1-04 through E1-10.

E1-03: V/f Pattern Selection
Selects the V/f pattern for the drive and motor from 15 predefined patterns or creates a custom V/f pattern.
No. Parameter Name Setting Range Default
E1-03 V/f Pattern Selection 0 to F
F
<1>
<1> Parameter is not reset to the default value when the drive is initialized using A1-03.
Setting a Predefined V/f Pattern (Setting 0 to E)
Choose the V/f pattern that best meets the application demands from Table 4.14. These settings are available only in
V/f Control modes. Set the correct value to E1-03. Parameters E1-04 to E1-13 can only be monitored, not changed.
Note: 1. Setting an improper V/f pattern may result in low motor torque or increased current due to overexcitation.
2. Drive initialization does not reset parameter E1-03.

Setting Specification Characteristic Application
0 50 Hz
Constant torque
For general purpose applications. Torque remains constant
regardless of changes to speed.
1 60 Hz
2 60 Hz (with 50 Hz base)
3 72 Hz (with 60 Hz base)
4 50 Hz, Variable torque 1
Variable torque
For fans, pumps, and other applications where the required
torque changes as a function of the speed.
5 50 Hz, Variable torque 2
6 60 Hz, Variable torque 1
7 60 Hz, Variable torque 2
8 50 Hz, mid starting torque
High starting torque
Select high starting torque when:
• Wiring between the drive and motor exceeds 150 m.
• A large amount of starting torque is required.
• An AC reactor is installed.
9 50 Hz, high starting torque
A 60 Hz, mid starting torque
B 60 Hz, high starting torque
C 90 Hz (with 60 Hz base)
Constant output
Output voltage is constant when operating at greater than
60 Hz.
D 120 Hz (with 60 Hz base)
E 180 Hz (with 60 Hz base)
F
<1>
60 Hz Constant torque
For general purpose applications. Torque remains constant
regardless of changes to speed.
<1> Setting F enables a custom V/f pattern by changing parameters E1-04 to E1-13. When the drive is shipped, the default values for parameters E1-04
to E1-13 are the same as those of setting 1.
The following tables show details on predefined V/f patterns.

The values in the following graphs are specific to 200 V class drives. Double the values for 400 V class drives. Multiply the
values by 2.875 for 600 V drives.
