Quick Start Parameter Descriptions
Brief descriptions of the Quick Start parameters are provided here for your reference. 
Full descriptions of the parameters are provided in the software I/M. These 
descriptions are listed in the order that they are displayed during the Quick Start 
procedure for vector-regulated drives. For V/Hz regulated drives, fewer parameters 
are displayed and the order is slightly different.
For V/Hz control, the drive provides open-loop volts per hertz regulation, which is 
appropriate for general purpose applications
For vector control, you may select either flux vector control (FVC) or sensorless vector 
control (SVC).
Flux vector control uses the actual encoder value for speed feedback and, therefore, 
requires an encoder mounted to the motor and connected to the drive. You program 
the drive for FVC by first selecting VECTOR in the REGULATION TYPE parameter 
(P.048) and then selecting the PPR value of the encoder in the ENCODER PPR 
parameter (U.001).
Sensorless vector control is an extension of the FVC regulator. It provides 
performance close to FVC without using an encoder. Control is based on estimated 
speed feedback. You program the drive for SVC by first selecting VECTOR in the 
REGULATION TYPE parameter (P.048) and then selecting SENSORLESS in the 
ENCODER PPR parameter (U.001).
Switching from one regulator type to the other takes approximately ten seconds.
Changing this parameter restores the default values of all General Parameters (P.---) 
except for REGULATION TYPE and DEFAULTS TYPE (P.049).

ATTENTION:  The incorrect programming of Quick Start parameters 
can cause an overspeed condition. These parameters must be 
programmed by a qualified person who understands the significance of 
programming them accurately. Verify that the values of these 
parameters are programmed accurately for your application. Failure to 
observe this precaution could result in bodily injury.
