1. The wiring of main circuit and control circuit should be separated to prevent erroneous actions.
2. Please use shield wire for the control wiring and not to expose the peeled-off net in front of the
terminal.
3. Please use the shield wire or tube for the power wiring and ground the two ends of the shield
wire or tube.
4. Damaged insulation of wiring may cause personal injury or damage to circuits/equipment if it
comes in contact with high voltage.
5. The AC motor drive, motor and wiring may cause interference. To prevent the equipment
damage, please take care of the erroneous actions of the surrounding sensors and the
equipment.
6. When the AC drive output terminals U/T1, V/T2, and W/T3 are connected to the motor terminals
U/T1, V/T2, and W/T3, respectively. To permanently reverse the direction of motor rotation,
switch over any of the two motor leads.
7. With long motor cables, high capacitive switching current peaks can cause over-current, high
leakage current or lower current readout accuracy. To prevent this, the motor cable should be
less than 20m for 3.7kW models and below. And the cable should be less than 50m for 5.5kW
models and above. For longer motor cables use an AC output reactor.
8. The AC motor drive, electric welding machine and the greater horsepower motor should be
grounded separately.
9. Use ground leads that comply with local regulations and keep them as short as possible.
10. No brake resistor is built in the VFD-M series, it can install brake resistor for those occasions
that use higher load inertia or frequent start/stop. Refer to Appendix B for details.
11. Multiple VFD-M units can be installed in one location. All the units should be grounded directly
to a common ground terminal, as shown in the figure below. Ensure there are no ground
loops.

Mains power terminals (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3)
Connect these terminals (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3) via a non-fuse breaker or earth leakage breaker to
3-phase AC power (some models to 1-phase AC power) for circuit protection. It is unnecessary
to consider phase-sequence.
It is recommended to add a magnetic contactor (MC) in the power input wiring to cut off power
quickly and reduce malfunction when activating the protection function of AC motor drives. Both
ends of the MC should have an R-C surge absorber.

Pr.10. This parameter is used to determine the time required for the AC drive to ramp from 0
Hz to its Maximum Output Frequency (Pr.03). The rate is linear unless the S-Curve (Pr.14) is
“Enabled”.
Pr.11. This parameter is used to determine the time required for the AC drive to decelerate
from the Maximum Output Frequency (Pr.03) down to 0 Hz. The rate is linear unless the S-
Curve (Pr.14) is “Enabled”.
Pr.12 and Pr.13: Provide an additional Accel/Decel time although Time 1 is the default. A
Multi-Function input terminal must be programmed to select Accel/ or Decel/ Time 2 and the
terminal must be closed to select Accel/Decel Time 2 (See Pr.38 to Pr.42).
In the below diagram, suppose the Maximum Output Frequency is 60 Hz (Master Freq),
Minimum Output Frequency (start-up) is 1.0 Hz, and accel/decel time 1 is 10 seconds. The
actual time for the AC drive to accelerate from start-up to 60 Hz is 9.83 seconds (deceleration
time is also 9.83 seconds), can be determined by the formula.

activate the JOG function. Likewise, during Jog operation, other commands cannot be
accepted through the keypad but FORWARD, REVERSE and STOP. The JOG function can
be remotely activated when the Jog terminal is closed, and if the Jog terminal opens, the AC
drive will decelerate from Jog Frequency to zero. The accel / decel time is entered as Jog
Accel / Decel Time (Pr.15). Multi-function Input terminals (M1-M5) can also be used to initiate

During deceleration, the DC bus voltage may exceed its maximum allowable value due to
motor regeneration. When this function is enabled, the AC drive will stop decelerating, and
maintain a constant output frequency to prevent from over-voltage tripping. Drive will resume
deceleration when the voltage drops below the setting for Pr.25.
Note: In applications where inertia is low, over-voltage during deceleration would not occur. When
inertia is high, the AC drive will automatically extend the deceleration period. If a faster stop is
needed, then a dynamic brake resistor should be used.

This parameter determines the amount of DC Braking Current applied to the motor during
starting and stopping. When setting the DC Braking Current, please note that 100%
corresponds to the rated current of the AC drive. It is recommended to start with a low DC
Braking Current level and then increase it until proper holding torque has been attained.

Pr.29
DC Braking Time during Start-up
Unit: 0.1sec
Settings 0.0 to 5.0 sec Factory Setting: 0.0
This parameter determines the duration for the DC Braking Current applied during starting. DC
Braking is applied until the Minimum Frequency is reached.
Pr.30
DC Braking Time during Stopping
Unit: 0.1sec
Settings 0.0 to 25.0 sec Factory Setting: 0.0
This parameter determines the duration for the DC Braking voltage to be applied during
stopping. If stopping with DC Braking is desired, then Pr.02 must be set to Ramp to Stop (0.0).
Pr.31
Start-Point for DC Braking
Unit: 0.1sec
Settings 0.00 to 60.00Hz Factory Setting: 0.00

Notes:
1. DC Braking during starting is used for loads that may move before the AC drive starts, such
as hoists and cranes. These loads may also be moving in the wrong direction. Under such
circumstances, the DC Braking can be used to hold the load in position before applying a
forward motion.
2. DC Braking during stopping is used to stop faster than the ramp-to-stop or to hold a
stopped load in position. A dynamic brake resistor may be needed in order to stop loads of
high inertia.

Momentary Power Loss Operation Selection
Factory Setting: 00
Settings 00 Operation stops after momentary power loss
01 Operation continues after momentary power loss Speed search starts with
the Master Frequency reference value
02 Operation continues after momentary power loss Speed search starts with
the min frequency
Pr.33
Maximum Allowable Power Loss Time
Unit: 0.1sec
Settings 0.3 to 5.0 sec Factory Setting: 2.0 sec
After a power loss, the AC drive will resume operation only if the power loss duration is shorter
than the time defined by Pr.33. If the Maximum Allowable Power Loss Time is exceeded, the
AC drive output is then turned off.
Pr.34
Base-Block Time for Speed Search
Unit: 0.1sec
Settings 0.3 to 5.0 sec Factory Setting: 0.5 sec
When a momentary power loss is detected, the AC drive will stop its output and will wait during
a specified time interval called Base Block (entered in Pr.34) before resuming operation.
Setting of this parameter should make the residual output voltage due to regeneration almost
zero, before the drive resumes operation.
This parameter also determines the search time when performing external Base-Block and
Fault Reset (Pr.72).
Pr.35
Maximum Current Level for Speed Search
Unit: 1%
Settings 30 to 200% Factory Setting: 150
Following a power failure, the AC drive will start its speed search operation only if the output
current is greater than the value determined by Pr.35. When the output current is less than that
of Pr.35, the AC drive output frequency is at a “speed synchronization point” and will
accelerate or decelerate back to the operating frequency at which it was running prior to the
power failure.

The Upper/Lower Bounds help prevent operation error and machine damage.
If the Upper Bound of Output Frequency is 50Hz and the Maximum Output Frequency is 60Hz,
the Maximum Output Frequency will be limited to 50Hz.
Setting of this parameter must be equal to or greater than the Lower Bound of Output
Frequency (Pr.37).
Pr.37
Lower Bound of Output Frequency
Unit: 0.1Hz

If the Lower Bound of Output Frequency is 10Hz, and the Minimum Output Frequency (Pr.08)
is set at 1.0Hz, then any command frequency between 1-10Hz will generate a 10Hz output
from the drive.

Example 2:
A Bias Adjustment (16.7% of 60Hz) determines the Output Frequency to be 10 Hz with the
potentiometer set at 0V as shown. Notice that the entire V/F is transposed accordingly. An analog
input voltage 0-8.33V (or current 4-13.33mA) would set frequency as 0-60Hz.Once the Maximum
Output Frequency is reached any further increase on the potentiometer will not increase output
frequency (If you want to use the range of 60Hz, please refer to the example 3).
