Set the Motor Base Frequency – The motor is designed to operate at a specific AC

frequency. Most commercial motors are designed for 50/60 Hz operation. First, check
the motor specifications. Then follow the steps below to verify the setting or correct it

for your motor. DO NOT set it greater than 50/60 Hz unless the motor manufacturer

specifically approves operation at the higher frequency.

CAUTION: If you operate a motor at a frequency higher than the inverter standard
default setting (50Hz/60Hz), be sure to check the motor and machine specifications with

the respective manufacturer. Only operate the motor at elevated frequencies after
getting their approval. Otherwise, there is the danger of equipment damage.

Set the AVR Voltage Setting – The inverter has an Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR)

function. It adjusts the output voltage to match the motor’s nameplate voltage rating.
The AVR smoothes out fluctuation in the input power source, but note that it does not

boost the voltage in the event of a brown-out. Use the AVR setting (A082) that most

closely matches the one for your motor.

200V class: 200 / 215 / 220 / 230 / 240 VAC

400V class: 380 / 400 / 415 / 440 / 460 / 480 VAC

TIP: If you need to scroll through a function or parameter list, press and hold the or

key to auto-increment through the list.

To set the motor voltage, follow the steps on the following page.
