Instructions on Wiring

WARNING

• Connect the drive to power via a line-protection molded-case circuit breaker or fuse, as fire may result.

Always connect a ground wire, as electric shock or fire may result.

• A licensed specialist must perform all wiring work, as electric shock may result.

• Turn off the power before wiring, as electric shock may result.

• Wire the drive after installation is complete, as electric shock or injury may occur.

CAUTION

• Confirm that the phases and rated voltage of this product match those of the AC power supply,

as injury may result.

• Do not connect the AC power supply to the output terminals (U, V, and W), as injury may result.

• Do not directly connect a braking resistor to the DC terminals (P(+) and N(-)), as fire may result.

• Ensure that the noise generated by the drive, motor, or wiring does not adversely affect peripheral

sensors and equipment, as accident may result.

Instructions on Operation

WARNING

• Be sure to install the cover before turning on the power (closed). Do not remove the cover while power to

the drive is turned on. Electric shock may occur.

• Do not operate switches with wet hands, as electric shock may result. When the retry function is selected,

the drive may restart automatically after tripping. Design the machine to ensure personal safety in the
event of restart. Accident may result.

• When the torque limiting function is selected, operating conditions may differ from preset conditions

(acceleration/deceleration time or speed). In this case, personal safety must be assured.
Accident may result.

• The STOP key is only effective when a function setting has been established. Install an independent

emergency switch to disable the STOP key on the keypad panel when an operation is selected via the
external signal terminal. Accident may result.

• Operations can start up suddenly, after the alarm is reset, if there is a running signal input.

Confirm that the running signal input is not present before resetting the alarm. Accident may result.

• Do not touch drive terminals when energized, even if the drive has stopped. Electric shock may result.

CAUTION

• Do not start or stop the drive using the main circuit power. Failure may result.

• Do not touch the heat sink or braking resistor because they become very hot. Burns may result.

• Since the drive can reach high speed operation easily, carefully check the performance of motor or

machine before changing any speed settings. Injury may result.

• Do not use the drive braking function for mechanical holding. Injury may result.
