3.2Installation Precautions
Improper installation of the X5 drive will greatly reduce its life. Be sure to observe the following
precautions when selecting a mounting location. Failure to observe these precautions may void the warranty! See the inside front cover of this manual for more information about the warranty.
•Do not install the drive in a place subjected to high temperature, high humidity, excessive vibration,
corrosive gases or liquids, or airborne dust or metallic particles. See Chapter 2 for temperature,
humidity, and maximum vibration limits.
•Do not mount the drive near heat-radiating elements or in direct sunlight.
•Mount the drive vertically and do not restrict the air flow to the heat sink fins.
•The drive generates heat. Allow sufficient space around the unit for heat dissipation. See “Dissipation
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 3: Receiving and Installation
3.5Serial Number Label
Vacon, Inc. warrants all AC drives for three years from date of manufacture, or two years from the
date of installation, whichever comes first. For a more detailed description of our warranty policy,
see the inside front cover of this manual, or visit the web site at http://www.vacon.com. To
determine if your drive is within the warranty time frame, find the bar code label or look in the lower
left of the technical nameplate. The serial number can be broken down as follows:
yywwxxxx = yy...year of manufacture
ww...week of manufacture
xxxx...sequential number drive during that week
3.6Conduit Usage
The X5 drive in the NEMA 4x / IP66 enclosure is rated for 1000 psi washdown from 6 inches. To
keep this rating, the use of a sealed conduit is required. The use of a Romex-type conduit will not
prevent water entry into the enclosure. If the approved conduit is not used, all warranty claims
against water damage will be void.
3.7Condensation
The washdown process of an X5 drive may create a temperature and humidity change in and around
the drive. If the unit is mounted in a cool environment and washed down with higher-temperature
water, as the drive cools to room temperature, condensation can form inside the drive, especially
around the display. To prevent this from happening, avoid using sealed connectors around rubbercoated cables to seal the drive. These do not allow any air transfer and hence create a level of
condensation and humidity that exceeds the drive’s rating.
• Read and understand this manual in its entirety before installing or operating the X5 AC drive.
Installation, adjustment, repair, and maintenance of these drives must be performed by qualified
personnel.
• Disconnect all power before servicing the drive. WAIT 5 MINUTES until the DC bus capacitors
discharge.
• DO NOT short across DC bus capacitors or touch unshielded components or terminal strip screw
connections with voltage present.
• Install all covers before applying power or starting and stopping the drive.
• The user is responsible for conforming to all applicable code requirements with respect to grounding
all equipment.
• Many parts in this drive, including printed circuit boards, operate at line voltage. DO NOT TOUCH. Use
only electrically-insulated tools.
Before servicing the drive:
• Disconnect all power.
• Place a “DO NOT TURN ON” label on the drive disconnect.
• Lock the disconnect in the open position.
Failure to observe these precautions will cause shock or burn, resulting in severe personal injury
or death.

This chapter provides information on connecting power and control wiring to the X5 AC drive.
4.2General Wiring Information
4.2.1 Wiring Practices
When making power and control connections, observe these precautions:
•Never connect input AC power to the motor output terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W. Damage
to the drive will result.
•Power wiring to the motor must have the maximum possible separation from all other power wiring.
Do not run in the same conduit; this separation reduces the possibility of coupling electrical noise
between circuits.
•Cross conduits at right angles whenever power and control wiring cross.
•Good wiring practice also requires separation of control circuit wiring from all power wiring. Since
power delivered from the drive contains high frequencies which may cause interference with other
equipment, do not run control wires in the same conduit or raceway with power or motor wiring.
4.2.2 Considerations for Power Wiring
Power wiring refers to the line and load connections made to terminals L1/R, L2/S, L3/T, and T1/U,
T2/V, T3/W respectively. Select power wiring as follows:
1. Use only UL-recognized wire.
2. Wire voltage rating must be a minimum of 300 V for 230 Vac systems and 600 V (Class 1 wire) for
460 or 575 Vac systems.
3. Wire gauge must be selected based on 125% of the continuous input current rating of the drive. Wire
gauge must be selected from wire tables for 75 °C insulation rating, and must be of copper construction.
The 230 V 7.5 and 15 HP models, and the 460 V 30 HP models require 90 °C wire to meet UL
requirements. See Chapter 2 for the continuous output ratings for the drive.
4. Grounding must be in accordance with NEC and CEC. If multiple X5 drives are installed near each
other, each must be connected to ground. Take care not to form a ground loop.
See Table 4-1 for a summary of wiring specifications.

Size 465 in-lbs3/0 AWG
Size 5132 in-lbs400 MCM
Note: Wire type not specified by the manufacturer. Some types of wire may not fit within the constraints of the
conduit entry and bend radius inside the drive..
See “Power and Current Ratings” on page 16 for the allowable fluctuation of AC line voltage for
your particular X5 model. A supply voltage above or below the limits given in the table will cause
the drive to trip with either an overvoltage or undervoltage fault.
Exercise caution when applying the X5 AC drive on low-line conditions.
For example, an X5 2000 series unit will operate properly on a 208 Vac line, but the maximum
output voltage will be limited to 208 Vac. If a motor rated for 230 Vac line voltage is controlled by
this drive, higher motor currents and increased heating will result.
Therefore, ensure that the voltage rating of the motor matches the applied line voltage.
4.3.2 Line Capacity
If the source of AC power to the X5 AC drive is greater than 10 times the kVA rating shown in Ta ble
4-4 below, an isolation transformer or line reactor is recommended. Consult the factory for
assistance in sizing the reactor.

Note: X5 AC drive devices are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 65,000 rms
symmetrical amperes at 10% above the maximum rated voltage.
9131823283642577090112150180220250
4.3.3 Phase Imbalance
Phase voltage imbalance of the input AC source can cause unbalanced currents and excessive heat
in the drive’s input rectifier diodes and DC bus capacitors. Phase imbalance can also damage motors
running directly across the line. The phase imbalance should not exceed 2% of the voltage rating; if
it does, the drive should be derated as a single-phase drive.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Never use power-factor correction capacitors on motor terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W of the X5 AC
drive. Doing so will damage the semiconductors.
Failure to follow this instruction can result in injury or equipment damage.
ATTENTION
RISQUE DE DOMMAGES MATÉRIELS
Ne raccordez jamais de condensateurs de correction du facteur de puissance aux bornes T1/U, T2/V, ou
T3/W du moteur du variateur de vitesse X5. Car cela endommagera les semiconducteurs.
Si cette directive n’est pas respectée, cela peut entraîner des blessures corporelles ou des
dommages matériels.
X5 AC drive 230 Vac, 5-HP models are designed for both three-phase and single-phase input power.
If one of these models is operated with single-phase power, use any two line input terminals. The
output of the device will always be three-phase.
The safe derating of the X5 series of drives is 50% of the nominal current (HP) rating. Consult the
factory with the particular application details for exact derating by model.
4.3.5 Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI)
The GFCI breakers are designed for residential use to protect personnel from stray currents to
ground. Most GFCI breakers will shut off at 5 mA of leakage. It is not uncommon for an AC drive
to have 30 to 60 mA of leakage.
4.3.6 Motor Lead Length
It is recommended that the total lead length should not exceed the motor manufacturer’s guidelines.
Line disturbance and noise can be present in motor wiring of any distance. As a rule of thumb, any
non-inverter duty motor should have a reactor or filter added when the motor lead length exceeds
150 feet. The carrier frequency for the drive should also be reduced using parameter 803 (PWM
Frequency).
Nuisance trips can occur due to capacitive current flow to ground. These currents can cause shock
to personnel and can create problems within the motor. Care should be taken when working in these
areas.
Some applications can have a restricted lead length because of type of wire, motor type, or wiring
placement. Consult the factory and the motor manufacturer for additional information.
4.3.7 Using Output Contactors
Contactors in the output wiring of an AC drive may be needed as part of the approved safety circuit.
Problems can arise if these contactors are opened for the safety circuit and the drive is left in run
mode of operation. When the contactor is open, the drive is in a no-load, no-resistance state, but is
still trying to supply current to the motor. However, when the contactor closes, the drive sees the
motor resistance and instantly demands current. This inrush of current when the contactor closes can
fault or cause failure to the drive.
To prevent problems, interlock an auxiliary contact to the drive’s Run or Enable circuit to stop the
drive when the contactor opens. In this way, the drive will be disabled and no inrush will occur when
the contactor is closed again.
Note that earth ground is on the terminal strip (see Figure 4-1). Dynamic brake (DB) connections are
not on the terminal strip, but on “fast on” (spade) connectors for models up to 30 HP, and on the
terminal strip for models 40 HP and larger. See page 36 for specific information about dynamic
braking.
These terminals are the line connections for input power. (Single-phase 230 Vac,
models connect to any two of these terminals.)
See Section 4.3 starting on page 31 for input line requirements.
Note that when testing for a ground fault, do not short any motor lead (T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W) back
to an input phase (L1/R, L2/S, or L3/T).
It is necessary to provide fuses and a disconnect switch for the input AC line in accordance with all
applicable electrical codes. The X5 AC drive is able to withstand a 150% overload for 60 seconds
for heavy duty rating, and 120% overload for normal duty rating.
The fusing and input protection of the drive must always meet UL, NEC (National Electric Code),
and CEC (Canadian Electric Code) requirements. All fuse ratings included in Table 4 -6 below are
for reference only and do not supersede code requirements. The recommended supplier is Bussman.
The X5 AC drive is supplied with an integrated dynamic braking (DB) resistor, and is designed to
have adequate dynamic braking for most applications. In cases where short stopping times or high
inertia loads require additional braking capacity, install an external resistor.
Note: For Size 4 (60-100 HP) and Size 5 (125-200 HP) models, additional external dynamic braking
requires a kit that provides the connections to the braking transistors. The XDBKITS4 and
XDBKITS5 kits can be purchased through local distributors.
If an external resistor is used for dynamic braking, the internal resistor must be disconnected. To
install an external resistor, first disconnect the internal DB resistor (or resistors in 460 and 575 Vac
models) and properly terminate the wires leading to it. Then connect the external resistor fast-on
terminals where the internal resistor had been connected.
Changes to parameter 410 must be made when using external DB resistors.
Verify with the manufacturer of the selected resistor that the resistor is appropriate for your
application. Contact Vacon’s Electronic Application Engineering group for further assistance with
other possible sizing limitations.
Refer to Tabl e 4-7 for information about dynamic braking capacity for each X5 model.
Table 4-7: X5 Dynamic Braking Capacity (Page 1 of 2) (* Note that the asterisked X5 model numbers cannot
have external braking added)
Figure 4-3 shows the control terminals found on the I/O board of the X5 AC drive. See page 19 for
specifications. Table 4-9 on page 41 shows how to use the control terminals for preset speeds.
The drive’s control terminals are referenced to earth ground through a resistor / capacitor network.
Use caution when connecting analog signals not referenced to earth ground, especially if the
communications port (J3) is being used. The J3 port includes a common reference that can be
connected to earth ground through the host PLC or computer.

frequency. The output has a maximum rating of 28 Vdc and requires a pull-up resistor
(4.7
kOhms) if using the drive’s internal supply.
Note that if you are using a high-impedance meter to this terminal, the pull-up resistor value may
need to change. Please consult the factory for more information.
Inrush currents to coils of magnetic contactors, relays, and solenoids associated with or near the
drive can induce high current spikes in the power and control wiring, causing faulty operation. If this
occurs, a snubber network consisting of a series resistor and capacitor for AC loads, or a freewheeling or flyback diode for DC loads, can be placed across the relay coil to prevent this condition.
The following component values should be used for 115 VAC or 230 VAC relays or solenoids.

10. The diode current and voltage should be selected using the following formulae:
The X5 AC drive is pre-programmed to run a standard, 4-pole AC induction motor. For many
applications, the drive is ready for use right out of the box with no additional programming needed.
The digital keypad controls all operations of the unit. The ten input keys allow “press and run”
operation of the motor (Operation mode) and straightforward programming of the parameters
(Program mode)..
Figure 5-1: The X5 Keypad
To simplify programming, the parameters are grouped into three levels:
1. Enter Level 1 by pressing the Program (PROG) key at any time. Level 1 allows you to access
the most commonly used parameters.
2. Enter Level 2 by holding down the SHIFT key while pressing the PROG key. Level 2 allows
access to all X5 parameters, including those in Level 1, for applications which require more
advanced features.
3. Enter Macro mode by holding the Program (PROG) key down for more than 3 seconds. The
display then shows “Hold PROG for Macro Mode.” See Chapter 6, “Using Macro Mode,”
starting on page 60, for more information.
The summary of parameters found before the Table of Contents notes whether a parameter is in
Level 1. “Chapter 7: X5 Parameters” on page 70 gives full information about what level a
parameter is in.
Note that all parameters can be addressed by adding 40000 to the parameter number. For
example, parameter 201 (Input Mode) can be addressed by Modbus address 40201.

When the drive is stopped, pressing this key decreases the desired running speed. When the
drive is running, pressing the DEC (down arrow) key decreases the actual running speed in
0.1 Hz increments. Holding the SHIFT key while pressing the DEC key moves the decimal
place to the right with each press (10.0 Hz, 1.0 Hz, 0.1 Hz increments).
NOTE: The operating speed for the drive is stored on Power Down.
Pressing this key while a parameter is displayed allows that parameter to have its value
changed by use of the INC and DEC (up and down arrow) keys. The P indicator flashes to
show that the parameter can be programmed. See also the descriptions for the INC and DEC
keys to see how they work with the SHIFT key.
The Enter key has no function when the drive is running or stopped. The Enter key can be used
to store the speed command so that it is saved through a power-down. To enable this function,
see the description for parameter 802 (Start Options) on page 99.
Whether the drive is running or stopped, pressing this key places the drive in Program mode.
See Table 5-2 on page 46 for more information on how this key functions.
Pressing this key toggles drive control between the LOCal and REMote control modes, as
selected by parameter 201 (Input Mode). It can be configured to shift:
• the Run/Stop command (either FWD or REV)
• the speed reference signal
• both of the above
It can also be set to “disabled,” which is the factory setting. It will operate either in Stop mode
or while the drive is running. If power is removed and reapplied, the memory will retain the last
selected function.

5.5Programming
5.5.1 Accessing Parameters
When PROG (or SHIFT+PROG) is pressed after application of power or a fault reset, parameter 201,
Input Mode, is always the first parameter displayed. Figure 5-3 shows a typical programming
display.
Figure 5-3: Typical Programming Display
If a different parameter is accessed and Program mode is exited, that parameter is the first one
displayed the next time Program mode is entered. The drive remembers a different “last parameter
accessed” for Levels 1 and 2.
5.5.2 Changing the Display Scroll Rate
Pressing the INC or DEC (up or down arrow) keys causes the display to scroll at a slow rate. To
increase the scroll rate, hold the SHIFT key at the same time that you press the INC key. Release
the SHIFT key to return to the slow scroll rate. This procedure works in all programming and
operation modes.
5.5.3 Programming Procedure
To program the value of a parameter, follow these steps:
1. Press the Program (PROG) key to enter Level 1 Program mode. To enter Level 2, press
SHIFT+PROG. The P indicator will appear on the display. You must enter one level of
programming or the other; you cannot switch between levels without exiting Program mode.
Note that some parameters cannot be changed in Run mode. For example, if you wish to program
parameter 201, Input Mode, you must stop the drive before beginning programming. Refer to the
Parameter Summary table at the front of this manual to see which parameters cannot be changed in
Run mode (they appear as shaded entries in the table).
2. Press the INC or DEC (up or down arrow) keys to access the desired parameter.
3. Press the SHIFT key to allow the value to be changed. The P indicator starts to blink.
4. Press the INC or DEC key to select the new value.
5. Press the ENTER key to store the new value. The display shows “Stored” for one second.
6. Press PROG to exit Program mode, or the INC or DEC keys to select a new parameter.
To program a text parameter, follow these steps:
1. Like other parameters, text parameters use the INC/DEC (up/down arrow) and SHIFT keys
for editing. A line appears under the character that you are changing.
2. Press SHIFT to advance to the next character that you want to change.
3. Use the INC or DEC keys to change the character value.
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 5: Operation and Programming
5.5.4 Restoring Factory Settings
Whenever a parameter’s value is being changed (noted by the P indicator flashing), the original
factory setting for that parameter may be restored by pressing and releasing both the INC or DEC
keys simultaneously and then pressing the ENTER key.
To restore ALL parameters to factory settings, or to recall a previously stored parameter set, see
parameter 801, Program Number (page 99).
5.5.5 Viewing Parameters That Have Changed
The X5 unit allows you to view only those parameters that have changed. If you press ENTER and
PROG keys simultaneously, only those parameters that have been changed from the factory defaults
will be shown. Note that all parameters, regardless of Level 1 or 2 default location, will be shown.
If other parameters need to be changed, press the PROG key to exit this mode.
5.5.6 Using Macro Mode
A special Macro programming mode is available with the X5 series of AC drives. The Macro
programming mode allows you to customize the most common parameters for your application in
the Level 1 group. Macro mode provides parameters for activating special features like the program
sequencer or serial communications, plus a means of easily entering important motor parameters.
Parameters that are important to the drive’s operation are also included in the Macro mode. Although
these parameters are also available with standard programming, the Macro mode allows you to
quickly and easily configure the drive with essential parameters.
See “Chapter 6: Using Macro Mode and Getting a Quick Start” on page 60, for detailed information
about using macros to program the X5 drive.
5.6Measuring Stator Resistance (RS Measurement)
5.6.1 Activating Automatic RS Measurement via Keypad
1. Make sure there is no load applied to the motor and that the motor shaft is free to spin without
damage or injury.
2. Enter the Macro programming mode of the X5 keypad by pressing and holding the PROG
key until the parameter “Appl Macro” appears on the keypad. This takes about two seconds.
3. Scroll through the parameters of the X5 Macro programming mode and configure the
following parameters to the data provided on the nameplate of the motor:
• Rated Volt (509)
• Rated Mtr FLA (510)
• Rated Mtr RPM (511)

4. Change parameter 519 (Find Mtr Data) to a value of “Motor RS.” At this point, the RS
Measurement will be armed.
5. Exit the Macro programming mode by pressing the PROG key.
6. The Operate screen shows in two ways that an RS Measurement is ready to be made. First,
the Control path status field displays “MEA.” Second, a “Mtr Measure” warning flashes,
both of these signifying that a measurement is about to be taken.
7. Start the RS Measurement by pressing the FWD key. The measurement can only be made
with the FWD key. The FWD / REV terminals and the REV key will not work.
8. The measurement will begin as the drive injects voltage to the motor at zero frequency. The
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 5: Operation and Programming
9. If the test was successful, the drive will stop and return to the configured control path. The
“Motor RS” parameter will contain a new value that is the calculated resistance of the motor.
10. If the test was not successful, the drive will fault with a “RS Meas. Fail” message (Fault 34).
If the test fails, you may want to try the test again with a different “Rated Mtr FLA” or
different Current Limit percentage.
5.6.2 Activating Automatic RS Measurement via Serial Link (Modbus)
1. Make sure there is no load applied to the motor and that the motor shaft is free to spin without
damage or injury.
2. Configure the following parameters to the data provided on the nameplate of the motor:

• Rated Mtr FLA (510)
• Rated Mtr RPM (511)
• Power Factor (515)
3. Change parameter 519 (Find Mtr Data) to a value of “Motor RS.” At this point, the RS
Measurement will be armed.
4. Start the RS Measurement by writing a value of 0x0007 to parameter 904 (SIO Cntl Word).
5. The measurement begins as the drive injects voltage to the motor at zero frequency. The test
lasts about two seconds.
6. If the test was successful, the drive will stop and return to the configured control path. The
“Motor RS” parameter will contain a new value that is the calculated resistance of the motor.
7. If the test was not successful, the drive will fault with a “RS Meas. Fail” message (Fault 34).
If the test fails, you may want to try the test again with a different “Rated Mtr FLA” or
different Current Limit percentage.
5.7Storing Data and Reflashing Using a Flash Memory Device
You can use a flash memory stick (sometimes called a
jump drive, thumb drive, or flash drive) with the USB port
on the X5. In this way, software, program parameters and
Keeper data can be stored easily. The file type for drive
parameters is the same as used by PDA-trAC Plus with an
extension of .tps. When stored, the file is identified with
the name assigned in parameter 794. Keeper data files
have an extension of .csv.
5.7.1 Storing Drive Parameters
1. Insert the memory stick in the USB port.
2. Access parameter 799(Config USB Mode)in
Level 2 programming.
3. Select Par. Store and press the INC key.

If a file name is more than 12 characters long, the name is truncated on the display.
If the drive does not connect successfully to the USB memory stick, remove and re-insert the
stick.
8. Navigate to the desired .MHX file by using the INC, DEC, SHIFT+INC, SHIFT+DEC key
combinations. Press the ENTER key to select the file.
INC and DEC keys scroll through the files in the current directory in the memory stick.
Pressing SHIFT+INC or SHIFT+DEC navigates through directories.
9. Wait for the reflash process to complete. The X5 display shows the progress of the reflash:
Reflash time depends on the quality and speed of the memory stick used. Expect at least 8
minutes for the reflash process to complete.
10. Results of the reflash are shown in the display, and depending on the results, you will see
different things. If the reflash is successful, the X5 software will show the normal X5 display.
If unsuccessful, the following screen appears:
If no .MHX file is found, this screen
appears if a directory is found.
Directories are shown in brackets.
If no .MHX file and no directory is
found, this screen appears.
The number after “Request Failed” tells why the failure occurred:
0 = User aborted process
1 = Cannot open file
2 = Corrupted file
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 5: Operation and Programming
5.8Using the Keeper Data Log
The X5 provides a data collection utility called the “Keeper.” This function accumulates time-based
data during a specific period of time. For example, you might need to determine how many gallons
of liquid have been pumped, how many feet of material have been processed, or how many
“widgets” have been produced in a given time period. The Keeper collects this kind of data for you,
in 8-, 12-, or 24-hour periods of time. The Keeper also logs the kilowatt hours the drive has delivered
to the motor during the recording period, which can help you determine peak energy times for your
process.
To use the Keeper, you need to attach a sensor to an analog input or to the encoder feedback signals.
The sensor should provide a signal that represents the rate at which you are performing a task. The
signal should be compatible with the input range of the analog input or encoder. Set up a few
parameters that tell the drive the input scaling of the sensor, the rate information, and the times in
which you want to capture the data, and the Keeper does the rest. The data can be stored and
retrieved on a USB flash memory device, in a .csv file format that makes it possible to import directly
into a spreadsheet. See “Storing Keeper Files” on page 53 for instructions on how to store Keeper
data on a USB memory stick.
5.8.1 Keeper Parameters
The following table shows the Keeper parameters and a brief description of their functions. For their
options and defaults, please refer to page 79.
Table 5-6: Keeper Parameter Descriptions
ParameterParameter NameDescription
380Keeper Input Cfg
381Keeper Max Scale
382Keeper Save Time
384Keeper Save Rate
385Keeper Input
386Keeper Time Rate
387Keeper Rec. NumShows how many records have been saved by the Keeper.
388Active Kpr Rec.Shows the active Keeper record.
389Keeper UnitsConfigures the units of the Keeper input.
Configures how the Keeper function gets its input and also
enables the Keeper function.
Configures the value of the Keeper input signal when the analog
input is at its maximum value.
Sets the time of each day that the Keeper will save an
accumulated process variable.
Configures whether the Keeper will collect multiple records
during a day.
Provides feedback to display the current value of the Keeper
input.
Configures the time base of the Keeper accumulation. The
setting of this variable is dependent on the process variable.
The maximum number of records that the Keeper can store before data is overwritten is 128. If you
select “24 Hour” as the rate, you can keep 128 days of information; “12 Hour” allows 64 days; “8
Hour” allows 32 days.
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 5: Operation and Programming
5.8.2 Setting up the Keeper Function
To set up the Keeper function, follow these steps:
1. Make the Keeper parameters visible by changing parameter 150 (Show Clock Parameters)
to a value of Ye s .
2. Make sure that the correct date and time are displayed in parameters 120 (Today’s Date) and
121 (Today’s Time).
3. Choose which analog input channel will be used as the input signal to the Keeper. Set up the
analog input channel for the proper analog input configuration. Note that you can also set up
an input from an encoder as the input to the Keeper function.
4. Program parameter 380 (Keeper Input Cfg) to the value that is the input signal you chose
for the Keeper function.
5. Choose the units to be used by the Keeper by changing parameter 389 (Keeper Units) to the
desired units. The default is GPM; if you want that unit, you can skip this step. If the option
for units is not available, you can choose to program the engineering units of the drive as the
units of the input function. Do this by selecting User Units for the Keeper Units parameter
and programming parameter 805 (Display Units)to the text you want.
6. Modify parameter 381 (Keeper Max Scale) to the value to be displayed with the analog input
sensor is at its maximum value. For example, if you are using a 4-20 mA sensor and it
produces an output of 0-1000 GPM, then you should configure the analog input to 4-20 mA
and set parameter 381 to a value of 1000. This value should represent the maximum of your
sensor.
7. Verify that the Keeper input signal is scaled correctly. Do this through parameter 385
(Keeper Input). This parameter should be displaying the value the sensor is outputting.
Make sure that this value has been scaled correctly.
8. Configure the times that the Keeper will save data. To do this, decide whether you want the
Keeper to save data once, twice, or three times a day. Program this choice into parameter
384 (Keeper Save Rate). If you want the Keeper to save data once a day, select 24 hour.
Twice a day would be 12 hour; three times a day would be 8 hour.
9. Program the exact time that the Keeper will save data. Do this by programming a time value
into parameter 382 (Keeper Save Time). The Keeper will save the total value of the
processed variable every 8 or 12 or 24 hours, depending on your selection in Keeper Save Rate.
10. Now program the rate of the input variable using
parameter 386 (Keeper Time Rate). The
selection of this parameter should be made based on the units you are accumulating. For
example, if you are pumping gallons per minute (GPM), program this parameter to minute.
If you are pumping liters per second, program second. The parameter should match the time
base of the units you are accumulating.
11. The Keeper is now set up and ready to collect data. The last step should be to reset the records
to be collected. Depending on the order of parameters programmed, you may have false data
in your initial records. To reset the records, navigate to parameter 801 (Program Number)
and enter a value of 40. This will reset the Keeper records so that valid data can be collected.
The Keeper will collect data until the first save time that you have programmed into the drive.
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 5: Operation and Programming
This data will be saved in a partial data record that you will be able to determine from the
number of minutes accumulated.
12. You can extract the Keeper records from the drive with a USB flash memory device or
memory stick. (See “Storing Keeper Files” on page 53.) When you extract the data from the
drive, it will be presented to you in a comma-separated file (.csv) that can be opened in Excel.
The format of the data will be as follows:
DATETIMEDAYGALLONSPERIOD(MINS)KWHOUR
1/1/20000:00Fr10000480500
The Date and Time represent the time the data was saved to the record. In this case, the
units of the Keeper function were configured to be GPM. The fourth column then indicates
the number of gallons pumped during the period ending at the Date and Time indicated. If
you were to configure the Keeper to units of LPS, this field would indicate Liters. The
period field indicates the number of minutes the drive was available to run during that
period. The KWHour field allows you to determine what energy was supplied to the drive
during the period.
5.9Using the X5 Real-Time Clock and Other Special Features
If you use parameter 150 (Show Clock Param) to access the functionality of the X5 real-time clock,
a wide range of features is available. To do this, first change parameter 150 in Level 2 programming
mode to Ye s.
5.9.1 Enabling the X5 Based on Time of Day (TOD)
The X5 includes two “enable” windows that can control when the drive is allowed to run during the
course of a work day, Monday through Friday, and an additional “enable” window for weekends.
To use this enable function, select the time in your time zone (parameter 151, Time Zone Setup)
and the clock hour in 24-hour military time for both enable and disable times. The following table
shows both weekday enable functions and the additional weekend function (Saturday and Sunday),
and which parameters can be set for the time frame.

Enable Function #2 (Weekday)156158
Enable Function #3 (Weekend)160162
These TOD enable functions allow the drive to operate unattended for long periods of time and to
turn off equipment when not needed, eliminating the need to remember to shut the equipment off.
The drive can also be operated when power costs are generally lower, adding to the overall efficiency
of the application. Over time, this set of functions can result in substantial savings.
It should be noted that in spite of the automation feature, the drive can be manually overridden (to
operate when not enabled, perhaps for maintenance) by using a suitably programmed digital input.
It is also possible to transmit the information that the drive is being overridden, via one of the digital
outputs. Note that the drive must receive a normal RUN command during the enabled period for it
to operate.
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 5: Operation and Programming
5.9.2 Reminders
The X5 also allows you to set up three reminders, based on real time. While they are fundamentally
time-based, they can be based also on drive run time, or enabled or “gated” time. Reminders can be
helpful for maintenance technicians or operators.
Gated time is roughly equivalent to a “lap” time if you’re running a race, where time is only counted
while a certain condition is true. That is, while a digital input is active, the timer is gating. If it is no
longer active, gating stops.
When a reminder has timed out, a digital output can be activated to warn the operator or maintenance
technician that a certain action must be taken, such as regular maintenance or cycling of some
element in the process.
A reminder’s time-out can also be monitored from the keypad (through the ETA parameters: 173,
176, 179 on page 74) and reset remotely, again through a digital input.
The parameters associated with reminder configuration are:
Parameter Number
ConfigurationTimeTime to Completion
Reminder #1171172173
Reminder #2174175176
Reminder #3177178179
See page 74 for information on how to program digital inputs and outputs to work with reminders.
5.9.3 Timers
The X5 can also act as a timer. It actually has two timers available (parameters 746, 749). Each timer
can look at any signal normally presented to a digital input and delay its function by a set value (in
seconds). You may also choose to delay the transition in turning off the function--that is, you can
configure a digital output to delay on, delay off, or both, for any function presented normally to a
digital input.
This kind of functionality is often critical to coordinating the operation of more than just the motor
driven by the X5. You may even be able to eliminate the need for a PLC to control a complete
operation, if you can utilize more of the built-in functionality of the X5.
The parameters associated with timer configuration are:
Parameter Number
Timer TypeTimer SignalTimer “Time”
Timer #1746747748
Timer #2749750751
5.9.4 Thresholds
Another X5 feature related to digital outputs and overall machine coordination is the threshold
function. The X5 provides two thresholds that can be used to trigger a digital output to control other
equipment based on the conditions measured at one of the analog inputs or overall drive conditions.
It doesn’t matter if the analog input is controlling the X5 or not; the X5 is simply measuring the input
and can transmit the condition of the signal associated with it.
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 5: Operation and Programming
Thresholds can look at conditions within the drive, such as load, output power, current, or (with the
help of an encoder board) an encoder frequency or speed signal. You can set limits of high, low, and
within range for the condition to be considered true for a digital output.
The parameters associated with each threshold function are:
Chapter 6: Using Macro Mode and Getting a Quick Start
A special Macro programming mode is available with the X5 series of AC drives. The Macro
programming mode allows you to customize quickly the most common parameters for your
application in the Level 1 group. Macro mode provides special parameters for activating modes of
operation by macros, program sequencer, or serial communications.
Parameters important to the drive’s operation are also included in Macro mode. Although these
parameters are also available with standard programming, the Macro mode allows you to easily
configure the drive with essential parameters.
Macros configure what advanced functions will be active in the drive. A macro can also change the
default or visibility of a parameter within the programming levels. Parameter 490 (Appl Macro)
configures what macro will be active in the drive. Parameter 491 (Seq Appl) configures the
visibility of sequencer parameters and the time base of the sequencer. Parameter 492 (SIO Visible)
configures whether or not SIO parameters are visible. (See page 61.)
Note that all parameters can be addressed by adding 40000 to the parameter number. For
example, parameter 201 (Input Mode) can be addressed by Modbus address 40201.
6.1Entering Macro Mode
To enter the Macro mode, press and hold the PROGram key for more than three seconds. The drive
then enters Macro mode and displays “Hold PROG for Macro Mode.” Following is a list of the
different macros available and their features. A description of parameters used in Macro mode begins
on page 61.
FactoryThe Factory macro provides a simple way to restore the factory default parameter listings.
FanThe Fan macro provides a basic set-up for Fan applications. Parameters such as the V/Hz curve
and terminal strip operation are available in Level 1 programming.
Fan w/ PIThe Fan w/ PI macro allows for a simple set-up for Fan applications requiring process control.
Parameters such as the V/Hz curve, terminal strip operation, and PI configuration parameters
are available in Level 1 programming.
PumpThe Pump macro provides a basic set-up for Pump applications. Parameters such as the V/Hz
curve and terminal strip operation are available in Level 1 programming.
Pump w/ PIThe Pump w/ PI macro allows for a simple set-up for Pump applications requiring process
control. Parameters such as the V/Hz curve, terminal strip operation, and PI configuration
parameters are available in Level 1 programming.
VectorThe Vector macro activates the sensorless vector control algorithm. When an operation
requires low speed and high torque, this macro should be activated.

6.4Getting a Quick Start
The following basic procedure is for operators using simple applications who would like to get
started quickly. Be sure to read and understand all the sections in this chapter before proceeding with these instructions. If you are using remote operators, substitute the speed potentiometer for the
INC and DEC (up and down arrow) keys, and the remote Run/Stop switch for the FWD key in the
following instructions.
CAUTION
IMPROPER EQUIPMENT COORDINATION
Verify that proper voltage is connected to the drive before applying power.
Failure to observe this instruction can result in injury or equipment damage.
ATTENTION
MAUVAISE COORDINATION DES APPAREILS
Vérifiez que l’onduleur est raccordée à la bonne tension avant de le mettre sous tension.
Si cette directive n’est pas respectée, cela peut entraîner des blessures corporelles ou des
dommages matériels.
1.Follow all precautions and procedures in “Chapter 3: Receiving and Installation” on page 24.
2.Find the motor nameplate, and using parameters 509 (Rated Mtr Volt), 510 (Rated Mtr FLA),
511 (Rated Mtr RPM), and 515 (Power Factor), set up the motor parameters appropriately.
Parameter 514 (Motor RS)should also be set up accurately so the drive can run its routine to
measure motor stator resistance. (See “Measuring Stator Resistance (RS Measurement)” on
page 51.)
3.Apply AC power to the input terminals. For about 2 seconds the display will show all segments
active. The display then changes to zeros.
4.The factory settings are for keypad-only operation in the forward direction—that is, the REV key
is disabled. Press the FWD key, which causes the FWD indicator to illuminate.
5.Press the INC key to increase the desired running frequency. When the display gets to 0.1 Hz,
the drive starts to produce an output.
6.When the motor starts to turn, check the rotation. If the motor is turning in the wrong direction,
press STOP, remove AC power, and wait for all indicators to go out. After the STATUS
indicator has gone out, reverse any two of the motor leads at T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W.
7.The X5 drive is preset to run a typical NEMA B 4-pole induction motor to a maximum speed of
60.0 Hz with both acceleration and deceleration times set to 5.0 seconds.
8.Use the INC and DEC keys to set the proper running speed of the motor and the FWD and
STOP keys to control its operation.
Note that the X5 external cooling fans operate continuously for the first five minutes of power-up
time; after this point, they operate only as needed to control the operating temperature of the drive.
The X5 AC drive incorporates a comprehensive set of parameters that allow you to configure the
device to meet the special requirements of your particular application.
Note that pressing the PROG key enters Level 1 programming. Press SHIFT+PROG to enter Level
2 programming. Press ENTER+PROG to show only those parameters that have changed from the
factory default values.
This chapter describes the available parameters and the values that may be assigned to them. The
parameter summary table at the front of this manual provides a summary of all parameters including
their ranges and default values.
Note that all parameters can be addressed by adding 40000 to the parameter number. For
example, parameter 201 (Input Mode) can be addressed by Modbus address 40201.
7.2Level 1 Parameters
The most commonly configured X5 parameters are stored in a group named Level 1. This group is
easily accessed by pressing the PROG key as described in “Chapter 5: Operation and Programming”

Table 7-2: Description of X5 Parameters (Page 7 of 40)
205 Vin1 Config
Parameter 205, Vin1 Config, selects the type of signal for analog input Vin1. Vin1 can be voltage, current, or pulse train
input. This parameter also determines input range, impedance, and characteristics. Use Parameters 206 (Vin1 Offset)
and207 (Vin1 Span) to customize the selected range. The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:
Parameter Value

4-20mA 250I4 to 20 mA current signal with 250 Ohm load Inverted
PT 0-1kHz0 to 1 kHz pulse train
PT 0-10kHz0 to 10 kHz pulse train
PT 0-100kHz0 to 100 kHz pulse train
Inverted signal response means that minimum input signal produces maximum inverter output frequency and maximum
input signal produces minimum output frequency.
206 Vin1 Offset
Parameter 206, Vin1 Offset, configures the input range (offset) for analog input Vin1 that will affect speed or torque
limit functions. It is expressed as a percentage of the maximum value of the input signal.
Note that if the input signal drops below the offset value or if the input signal is lost (if no offset is configured), fault 22
will be generated.
207 Vin1 Span
Parameter 207, the Vin1 Span parameter, is used to alter the input range (span) of the input signal for analog input
Vin1 that will affect speed or torque limit functions. For example, if parameter 205, Vin1 Config, selects the 0 to 10 Vdc
input signal, setting this parameter to 50% reduces it to 0 to 5 Vdc.
208 Cin Config
Parameter 208, Cin Config, selects the type of signal for analog input Cin. Parameters 209 (Cin Offset) and 210 (Cin
Span) may be used to customize the selected range. The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:

209 Cin Offset
Parameter 209, Cin Offset, configures the offset for analog input Cin expressed as a percentage of the maximum value
of the input signal. See parameter 222 for options related to the drive’s response to loss of input signal.
Table 7-2: Description of X5 Parameters (Page 8 of 40)
210 Cin Span
Parameter 210, Cin Span, is used to alter the range of the input signal for analog input Cin. For example, if parameter
208 (Cin Config) selects the 0 to 20 mA input signal, setting this parameter to 50% reduces it to 0 to 10 mA.
211 Vin2 Config
Parameter 211, Vin2 Config, selects the type of signal for analog input Vin2. Parameters 212 (Vin2 Offset) and 213
(Vin2 Span) may be used to customize the selected range. The following data values may be assigned to this
parameter:
Parameter Value
0-10V0-10Vdc signal
0-10V Brk W0-10Vdc signal with broken wire detection for speed pot operation
0-10V I0-10Vdc signal inverted

212 Vin2 Offset
Parameter 212, Vin2 Offset, configures the offset for analog input Vin2 expressed as a percentage of the maximum
value of the input signal. See parameter 222 for options related to the drive’s response to loss of input signal.
213 Vin2 Span
Parameter 213, Vin2 Span, is used to alter the range of the input signal for analog input Vin2. For example, if parameter
211 (Vin2 Config) selects the 0 to 10Vdc input signal, setting this parameter to 50% reduces it to 0 to 5Vdc.
214 Vin1 Filter Time
This parameter configures the time constant of a filter for the Vin1 analog input. When the parameter value is set to
0 ms, there is no software filtering of the analog input. A value above 0 ms causes the drive to filter the analog signal.
Note that long filter times will create a delay in the drive response to signal changes.
215 Cin Filter Time
This parameter configures the time constant of a filter of the Cin analog input. When the parameter value is set to 0 ms,
there is no software filtering of the analog input. A value above 0 ms causes the drive to filter the analog signal. Note
that long filter times will create a delay in the drive response to signal changes.
216 Vin2 Filter Time
This parameter configures the time constant of a filter for the Vin2 analog input. When the parameter value is set to
0 ms, there is no software filtering of the analog input. A value above 0 ms causes the drive to filter the analog signal.
Note that long filter times will create a delay in the drive response to signal changes.
217 Trim Ref Enable
This parameter enables or disables trimming of the drive reference by an analog input and selects which analog input
will perform the trimming function.
Speed Reference = Main reference + (Trim % Factor) * (Analog in Percentage) * Max Frequency / 100%
Parameter Value
Disabled No trimming of drive reference

218 Trim % Factor
This parameter determines the percentage of the analog input signal selected in Parameter 217, Trim Ref Enable, that
will affect the reference signal.
222 Ref Loss ConfigDefault = No Fault
This parameter allows for the control of the drive’s response to a 4-20mA input on either the Vin1 or Cin input terminals
when the input drops below approximately 3mA. The default value is No Fault. The options for this parameter are:
Retain Spd Hold the last operating speed
Preset Spd2Go to the speed programmed at address 304
FaultDrive faults with an F22 Reference Loss indication
No FaultDrive does NOT fault; operating frequency drops to the limit set at Parameter 301, Min Frequency
301 Min Frequency
Parameter 301, Minimum Frequency, configures the minimum frequency output of the drive. This parameter governs
the minimum frequency when operating from the keypad or from an analog input. The preset speeds can be set lower
than the minimum frequency in parameter 301.
302 Max Frequency
Parameter 302, the Maximum Frequency parameter, configures the maximum frequency output of the drive.
These parameters configure fifteen preset speeds in addition to the normal reference speed of the drive (as defined by
parameters 201 (Input Mode) and204 (Ref Select) and the maximum frequency of the drive (as set with parameter
302, Max Frequency). Thus, in effect, you may choose to operate the drive at up to 16 different speeds.
The speeds are selected by a combination of four digital inputs (PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4). A wiring scheme for utilizing
preset speeds is provided on page 41 along with a chart showing what combination of inputs results in the selection of
which speeds.
Note that parameter Parameter 303 (Preset Freq1) also serves as the reference frequency for jogging.
309 Cut-Off Freq
This parameter sets the point where the drive no longer attempts to spin the motor. The range of this parameter is 0.0-
5.0 Hz. When the parameter is configured to a value of 0.0 Hz, the drive will operate with no Cut-off Frequency. If the
function is enabled, the drive will be able to ramp up through the cut-off frequency range, as in normal operation. If the
speed command falls below the cut-off frequency, the drive stops “gating” the outputs and coasts down to zero speed.
The keypad display will indicate Zero Speed, and the Forward or Reverse LED will be lit depending on the command.
When the reference returns to a value greater than the cut-off frequency, the drive will ramp from 0.0 Hz to the reference
frequency.

Note that extremely short acceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips.
403 Decel Time 1
This parameter configures the default length of time to decelerate from the value of parameter 302 (Max Frequency)
to 0 Hz. The deceleration ramp is selected by parameter 401 (Ramp Select).
Note that extremely short deceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips or may require an external dynamic brake

Table 7-2: Description of X5 Parameters (Page 12 of 40)
404 Accel Time 2
This parameter provides an alternate ramping time for the drive when accelerating, configuring the length of time to
accelerate from 0 Hz to the value of parameter 302 (Max Frequency). This acceleration ramp is selected by parameter
401 (Ramp Select) or Sequencer Configuration.
Note that extremely short acceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips.
405 Decel Time 2
This parameter provides an alternate ramping time for the drive when decelerating, configuring the length of time to
decelerate from the value of parameter 302 (Max Frequency) to 0 Hz. This deceleration ramp is selected by parameter
401 (Ramp Select) or Sequencer Configuration.
Note that extremely short deceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips or may require an external dynamic brake
or regen current limit.
406 DC Inject Config
DC injection braking may be used to stop the motor more quickly than is possible by either a ramp-to-stop or a coastto-stop. The X5 drive allows DC braking to be initiated either when a digital input assigned to DC braking becomes true,
when a specified frequency is reached, or when either of these events occurs.
When using a digital input for DC braking, you must use one of the DI parameters to configure the selected digital input
for DC braking. The amount of braking force is set by parameter 408 (DC Inject Level). The length of time that the
braking force is applied is determined by the time that the selected digital input is active. The second type of DC injection
braking supported by the X5 drive is where DC braking occurs at a specified frequency. The duration of the braking is
adjusted by parameter 407 (DC Inject Time).
With this type of braking, as the drive slows down after a Stop command, DC braking begins when the frequency
reaches the value set in parameter 409 (DC Inj Freq). If the frequency at the time of a Stop command is less than that
of DC Inj Freq, DC braking begins immediately. The braking continues for the time period specified by parameter DC Inj Freq. Once the time period elapses, the drive may be restarted.
Parameter Value
DC at StopDC inject only on Stop
DC at StartDC inject only on Start
DC at BothDC inject only on both Start and Stop
DC on FreqDC inject only on Stop below the set frequency
407 DC Inject Time
If parameter 406 is set to DC at Stop (see page 82), direct current is applied to the motor. This parameter, DC Inject
Time, determines how long the direct current will be applied, and how long DC is applied at Start if programmed
accordingly.
This parameter works in tandem with parameter 410 (DC Inject Config) and the other parameters associated with DC
Inject Config. That is, the time period configured by this parameter, DC Inject Time, determines how long DC injection
braking will be active. When DC injection braking is controlled by a digital input, the braking continues for as long as the
digital input is true, plus the time set by parameter 407 (DC Inject Time). When it is controlled by frequency, however,
it continues for the length of time once the drive reaches the frequency set by parameter 409 (DC Inj Freq).
408 DC Inject Level
Configures the amount of DC injection that will occur when direct current is injected into the motor windings, which acts
as a braking force. The amount of current is expressed as a percentage of nominal motor current. The braking force
may be applied when starting or stopping. If this parameter is set to 0.0%, the DC injection is disabled.
409 DC Inj Freq
Configures the frequency under which direct current will be applied to the drive when DC Inject Config is set to “DC on
Freq.” If this parameter is set to 0.0, the parameter operates in the same way as “DC at Stop.”
Table 7-2: Description of X5 Parameters (Page 13 of 40)
410 DB Config
Determines whether an external or internal dynamic brake is utilized or disabled. The drive provides an internal dynamic
brake (DB) to assist in stopping. If desired, an external resistor can be connected to DB and B+ for additional capacity.
The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:
Parameter Value

board temperature drops below -7 degrees C. When the DB becomes active, an “ARCTIC Mode” warning
flashes on the keypad. If the board temperature drops below -10 degrees C, the drive will be disabled and
not allowed to run. The keypad will indicate a “Not enabled” state at this point. If the board temperature
heats up after being below -10 degrees C, the drive must meet these criteria before operating again:
a) Board temperature must be above -9 degrees C, and
b) Board temperature must stay above -9 degrees C until a time period has elapsed. The time period is
dependent on how far below -10 degrees C the board was. Each degree below -10 degrees C adds
another 4 minutes before restart.

414 S Ramp Rounding
This parameter defines the amount of rounding or S-curve to the Accel and Decel ramp. The amount of rounding is split
evenly between the beginning and the end of the ramp. A value of 1% would mean that the rounding of the ramp is near
linear. A value of 50% would have 25% rounding at the start of the ramp and 25% at the end of the ramp.
415 Accel Time 3
This parameter provides an alternate ramping time for the drive when accelerating, configuring the length of time to
accelerate from 0 Hz to the value of parameter 302 (Max Frequency). This acceleration ramp is selected by parameter
401 (Ramp Select) or Sequencer Configuration.
Note that extremely short acceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips.
416 Decel Time 3

Note that extremely short deceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips or may require an external dynamic brake
or regen current limit.

Note that extremely short acceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips.
418 Decel Time 4
This parameter provides an alternate ramping time for the drive when decelerating, configuring the length of time to

Note that extremely short deceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips or may require an external dynamic brake
or regen current limit.

503 V/Hz Knee Freq
This parameter sets the point on the frequency scale of the V/Hz curve at which the output is at full line voltage.
Normally, this is set at the base frequency of the motor, but it may be increased to enlarge the constant torque range
on special motors. Setting this parameter to a higher value can reduce motor losses at low frequencies.
Table 7-2: Description of X5 Parameters (Page 16 of 40)
504 Skip Freq Band
To reduce mechanical resonances in a drive system, the drive may be configured to “skip” certain frequencies. Once
configured, the drive will accelerate or decelerate through the prohibited frequency band without settling on any
frequency in the band.
The X5 AC drive provides the capability to configure four prohibited frequency bands. Parameter 504 (Skip Freq Band),
the Skip Frequency Band parameter, sets the width of the band above and below each of the prohibited frequencies set
in parameters 505, 506, 507, and 508 (Skip Freq 1,2,3, 4).
For example, if this parameter is set to its default value of 1 Hz and parameter 505 (Skip Freq 1) is set to 20 Hz, a skip
band from 19 to 21 Hz is established.
As discussed in the description of parameter 504 (Skip Freq Band), the drive may be configured to skip certain
frequencies. These three parameters set the center of the three skip frequency bands (with the width of each band being
twice the value of parameter 504 — an equal amount above and below the skip frequency).
For example, if parameter 504 is set to 2.5 Hz and parameter 508 (Skip Freq 4) is set to 55 Hz, a skip band from 52.5
to 57.5 Hz is established.
509 Rated Mtr Volt
The Rated Motor Voltage parameter configures the rated motor voltage, and allows a user to enter the rated voltage
from the motor nameplate to provide optimal control and protection. This is usually the amount of voltage delivered to
the motor terminals at the setting of 503 (V/Hz Knee Freq).
510 Rated Mtr FLA
The Rated Motor FLA parameter allows a user to enter the rated FLA from the motor nameplate to provide optimal
control and protection. This parameter should be configured to the value on the nameplate of the motor, as that value
is used in calculating the percentage of current at which the drive is operating.
For information on motor timed overload operation, and how Parameter 510 works with it, see page 90.
511 Rated Mtr RPM
This parameter replaces the slip compensation parameter setting of the drive so the user does not need to calculate it.
512 Midpoint Freq
When parameter 501, V/Hz Select, is configured to “Linear 2pc,” this parameter, together with parameter 513, Midpoint
Vol t, defines an additional point in the V/Hz characteristic.
513 Midpoint Volt
When parameter 501, V/Hz Select, is configured to “Linear 2pc,” this parameter, along with parameter 512, Midpoint
Freq, defines an additional point in the V/Hz characteristic.
514 Motor RS
This parameter allows direct entry of the Stator Resistance (Rs) of the motor for better vector performance. The motor
manufacturer can provide this information.
515 Power Factor
This parameter allows direct entry of the motor’s power factor for better vector performance. The motor manufacturer
can provide this information.

516 Slip Comp Enable
This parameter is accessible through Macro modes, or through parameter 501 (V/Hz Select) and choosing Vector

be assigned to this parameter:
Parameter 516 permits activation of slip compensation for better speed regulation. The motor rated speed must be
entered into parameter 511 (Rated Mtr RPM) for best results.
517 Single Phase
This parameter determines whether or not Phase Loss faults will occur.
The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:
Parameter Value
NoNo single phase input operation. Phase loss engaged.
YesSingle phase operation. No phase loss.
519 Find Mtr Data
This parameter activates the drive’s ability to measure the stator resistance of the attached motor. The automatic stator
resistance measurement can be performed either through the keypad or through the serial link. See “Measuring Stator
Resistance (RS Measurement)” on page 51 for more information about this parameter. The following data values may
be assigned:
Parameter Value
Not ActiveNo stator RS measurement.
Motor RSAutomatic RS measurement using macro procedure.
520 Filter FStator
This parameter filters the stator frequency applied to the motor, which can help tune the acceleration behavior of the
motor. This is particularly helpful when using short ramps and operating the motor at a frequency above the “V/Hz Knee
Freq” (parameter 503) value (field weakening area). Lower values allow dynamic currents to be produced, but with
greater peaks. This could produce unstable states in the field weakening area. Low values for this parameter can cause
overcurrent faults while accelerating to frequencies over the Knee Frequency. Higher values allow the drive to run more
smoothly at frequencies over the Knee Frequency and protect the drive against overcurrents--often the case when using
special motors or spindle drives. This parameter is only visible if the drive is in a vector-capable mode.

522 Filter Time Slip
This parameter filters the slip frequency applied to the motor, which can help improve the dynamic response of the drive.
It is only visible if the drive is in a vector-capable mode; otherwise, it is hidden. This parameter produces the following
results based on the parameter value:
If the parameter is configured to 100 ms, the drive will produce stable conditions to a change in load, in most cases.
If the parameter is configured to less than 100 ms, the drive will be able to react quickly to a change in load, but may
over-compensate its reaction to the load.
If the parameter is configured to greater than 100 ms, the drive will react very slowly to a change in load and will need
a longer time to compensate for the difference between the setpoint and the actual frequency.
523 Id Percent
This parameter shows the Flux producing current (as a percentage of motor rated current) that is being applied to the
drive. The parameter is only visible if the drive is in a vector-capable mode; otherwise, it is hidden.
524 Iq Percent

the drive. The parameter is only visible if the drive is in a vector-capable mode; otherwise, it is hidden.

This parameter can be used to define how the drive responds to an undervoltage operation when parameter 501 is set

526 UV Ride-Thru En
This parameter allows the function to disable either (a) undervoltage ride-through or (b) continuous Line Voltage
Tracking (LVT) that produces dynamic Undervoltage Ride-Thru Thresholds. The following data values may be
assigned to this parameter:

600 Current Lim Sel
The X5 drive provides a Current Limit feature. With this feature enabled, the drive’s frequency is automatically reduced
when operating in motoring mode to keep the measured torque within limits. When operating in regenerative mode, the
output frequency can be automatically increased for the same reason. In addition to the current limit parameters that
activate the Current Limit mode, more current limit parameters are available to adjust the drive’s response to the load
demands. The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:
Parameter Value
Fixed LvlsThe fixed levels set in parameters 601, 602, 603 and 604 determine the current limit in each of the
Vin2Vin2 analog input sets the current limit value, range 0-200%
CinCin analog input sets the current limit value, range 0-200%
Vin2 MotorVin2 analog input sets the motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Cin MotorCin analog input sets the motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Vin2 F-MtrVin2 analog input sets the FWD motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Cin F-MotorCin analog input sets the FWD motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Note: Current limit is only available when parameter 501 is set to Linear Auto. If parameter 501 is set to Vector, then
the Current Limiting values will actually be Torque Limiting values.
601 Cur Lim Mtr Fwd
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in motoring mode in the forward direction. The limit is
expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
602 Cur Lim Mtr Rev
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in motoring mode in the reverse direction. The limit is
expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
603 Cur Lim Reg Fwd
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in regenerative mode in the forward direction. The limit
is expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
604 Cur Lim Reg Rev
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in regenerative mode in the reverse direction. The limit
is expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
605 Cur Lim Freq
This parameter sets the frequency where current limit becomes active. This value will also be the frequency point the
drive will decelerate the motor to during Motoring Current Limit.
606 Ramp Time CL
This parameter determines the ramp rate when the drive enters Current Limit, and defines the ramping rate of the drive
when in a current limiting mode. If the drive is in regenerative current limit, it is an acceleration time. If the drive is in
motoring current limit, it is a deceleration time.
607 Cur Lim Minimum
This parameter limits the lowest amount of current (or Torque) limiting that can occur when the limit threshold is
determined by an analog input.
Table 7-2: Description of X5 Parameters (Page 20 of 40)
608 Restart Number
609 Restart Delay
You may configure the drive to attempt to re-start a specified number of times after certain faults occur. Chapter 8 lists
all faults and notes which ones may be reset automatically.
The number of attempts at re-starting is set with parameter 608 (Restart Number). A value of 0 prevents the drive from
attempting a re-start). The time duration that must elapse between re-start attempts is set with parameter 609 (Restart Delay). The type of start to be attempted is set with parameter 802 (Start Options); see page 99).
If the number of attempted re-starts is exceeded, the drive will trip with a fault and will stop operating. Resetting the fault can result in instant starting. (See page 125 for more information on faults and troubleshooting.)
Note that for 2-wire operation, the FWD or REV terminal must still be active for the drive to attempt a re-start.
Also note that the counter for attempted re-starts will not reset to zero until ten minutes after a successful re-start.

610 Timed OL Select
Two parameters in the X5 work together to configure how the motor timed overload operates: parameter 510 (Rated
Mtr FLA) and parameter 610 (Timed OL Select).
Parameter 510 (Rated Mtr FLA) should be configured to the value on the nameplate of the motor. This value is used
in calculating the percentage of current at which the drive is operating.
Set parameter 610 to one of the following data values to configure the desired overload characteristic:
Options
Std Ind Shp0 secStandard InductionN/A
Std Ind 30s30 secStandard Induction1
Std Ind 60s60 secStandard Induction2
Std Ind 5mn300 secStandard Induction10
In Duty Shp0 secInverter DutyN/A
In Duty 30s30 secInverter Duty1
In Duty 60s60 secInverter Duty2
In Duty 5mn300 secInverter Duty10
Parameter 610 (Timed OL Select) determines the graph of Trip (Fault) Time vs. Percent Current that is used by the
Motor TOL functionality. This protective feature is speed-dependent to handle standard induction motors whose cooling
is limited by the shaft-mounted fan. Blower-cooled motors and most inverter-duty motors do not have this limitation.
Table 7-2: Description of X5 Parameters (Page 21 of 40)
613 Max Regen Ramp
This parameter operates as a percentage of the longest ramp time. This time then defines the amount of time a
deceleration to stop can take without causing a “Regen Timeout” fault. For example, if “Decel Time 1” is 5.0 seconds,
“Decel Time 2” is 10.0 seconds, and “Max Regen Ramp” is 300%, a deceleration to stop that takes more than 30
seconds will cause a “Regen Timeout” fault in the drive.
614 Stability Gain
615 Stability Rate
Both of these parameters can be used to resolve stability problems if they occur. Use Parameter 615 if the load has
significant inertia with respect to the motor itself.

With Time functions, these refer to “Retention Time.” Retention time is an inverse function: as speed goes up, time goes
down, and vice versa; often used in oven-type applications. The value set in parameter 809(Display Scale) references
time of operation when running at Max. Frequency. Example: if parameter 302 (Max. Frequency) is set for 60 Hz, 804 (Display Mode) is set for Time min, and 809 (Display Scale) is set for 600, the scales of the display will read 60.0 min
