Safety precautions
Read this manual thoroughly before proceeding with installation, connections (wiring), operation, or
maintenance and inspection. Ensure you have sound knowledge of the device and familiarize
yourself with all safety information and precautions before proceeding to operate the inverter.
Safety precautions are classified into the following two categories in this manual.
Failure to heed the information indicated by this symbol may
lead to dangerous conditions, possibly resulting in death or
serious bodily injuries.
Failure to heed the information indicated by this symbol may
lead to dangerous conditions, possibly resulting in minor or
light bodily injuries and/or substantial property damage.
Failure to heed the information contained under the CAUTION title can also result in serious consequences. These safety precautions are of utmost importance and must be observed at all times.
Application
• FRENIC-Mini is designed to drive a three-phase induction motor. Do not use it for single-phase motors or for other purposes.
Fire or an accident could occur.
• FRENIC-Mini may not be used for a life-support system or other purposes directly related
to the human safety.
• Though FRENIC-Mini is manufactured under strict quality control, install safety devices for
applications where serious accidents or material losses are foreseen in relation to the
failure of it.
An accident could occur.
Installation
• Install the inverter on a nonflammable material such as metal.
Otherwise fire could occur.
• Do not place flammable matter nearby.
Doing so could cause fire.
ii
• Do not support the inverter by its terminal block cover during transportation.
Doing so could cause a drop of the inverter and injuries.
• Prevent lint, paper fibers, sawdust, dust, metallic chips, or other foreign materials from
getting into the inverter or from accumulating on the heat sink.
Otherwise, a fire or an accident might result.
• Do not install or operate an inverter that is damaged or lacking parts.
Doing so could cause fire, an accident or injuries.
• Do not get on a shipping box.
• Do not stack shipping boxes higher than the indicated information printed on those boxes.
Doing so could cause injuries.
Wiring
• When wiring the inverter to the power source, insert a recommended molded case circuit
breaker (MCCB) or residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) (with overcurrent protection) in the path of power lines. Use the
devices within the recommended current range.
• Use wires in the specified size.
• When wiring the inverter to the power supply of 500 kVA or more (50 kVA or more for the
single-phase 115 V class series of inverters), be sure to connect an optional DC reactor
(DCR).
Otherwise, fire could occur.
• Do not use one multicore cable in order to connect several inverters with motors.
• Do not connect a surge killer to the inverter's output (secondary) circuit.
Doing so could cause fire.
• Be sure to connect the grounding wires without fail.
Otherwise, electric shock or fire could occur.
• Qualified electricians should carry out wiring.
• Be sure to perform wiring after turning the power off.
• Ground the inverter following Class C or Class D specifications or national/local electric
code, depending on the input voltage of the inverter.
Otherwise, electric shock could occur.
• Be sure to perform wiring after installing the inverter body.
Otherwise, electric shock or injuries could occur.
• Ensure that the number of input phases and the rated voltage of the product match the
number of phases and the voltage of the AC power supply to which the product is to be
connected.
Otherwise fire or an accident could occur.
• Do not connect the power source wires to output terminals (U, V, and W).
• Do not insert a braking resistor between terminals P (+) and N (-), P1 and N (-), P (+) and
P1, DB and N (-), or P1 and DB.
Doing so could cause fire or an accident.
iii
• Generally, control signal wires are not reinforced insulation. If they accidentally touch any
of live parts in the main circuit, their insulation coat may break for any reasons. In such a
case, an extremely high voltage may be applied to the signal lines. Make a complete
remedy to protect the signal line from contacting any hot high voltage lines.
Doing so could cause an accident or electric shock.
• Wire the three-phase motor to terminals U, V, and W of the inverter, aligning phases each
other.
Otherwise injuries could occur.
• The inverter, motor and wiring generate electric noise. Take care of malfunction of the
nearby sensors and devices. To prevent the motor from malfunctioning, implement noise
control measures.
Otherwise an accident could occur.
Operation
• Be sure to install the terminal block cover before turning the power on. Do not remove the
cover while power is applied.
Otherwise electric shock could occur.
• Do not operate switches with wet hands.
Doing so could cause electric shock.
• If the retry function has been selected, the inverter may automatically restart and drive the
motor depending on the cause of tripping.
(Design the machinery or equipment so that human safety is ensured after restarting.)
• If the stall prevention function (current limiter), automatic deceleration, and overload
prevention control have been selected, the inverter may operate at an acceleration/deceleration time or frequency different from the set ones. Design the machine so that
safety is ensured even in such cases.
Otherwise an accident could occur.
• The STOP key is only effective when function setting (Function code F02) has been established to enable the STOP key. Prepare an emergency stop switch separately. If you
disable the STOP key priority function and enable operation by external commands, you
cannot emergency-stop the inverter using the STOP key on the built-in keypad.
• If an alarm reset is made with the operation signal turned on, a sudden start will occur.
Ensure that the operation signal is turned off in advance.
Otherwise an accident could occur.
iv
• If you enable the "restart mode after momentary power failure" (Function code F14 = 4 or
5), then the inverter automatically restarts running the motor when the power is recovered.
(Design the machinery or equipment so that human safety is ensured after restarting.)
• If you set the function codes wrongly or without completely understanding this instruction
manual and the FRENIC-Mini User's Manual, the motor may rotate with a torque or at a
speed not permitted for the machine.
An accident or injuries could occur.
• Do not touch the inverter terminals while the power is applied to the inverter even if the
inverter stops.
Doing so could cause electric shock.
• Do not turn the main circuit power on or off in order to start or stop inverter operation.
Doing so could cause failure.
• Do not touch the heat sink or braking resistor because they become very hot.
Doing so could cause burns.
• Setting the inverter to high speeds is easy. Before changing the frequency (speed) setting,
check the specifications of the motor and machinery.
• The brake function of the inverter does not provide mechanical holding means.
Injuries could occur.
Wiring length for EMC filter built-in type
• When the wiring length between the inverter and motor exceeds 33ft(10 m), the filter
circuit may be overheated and damaged due to increase of leakage current. To reduce the
leakage current, set the motor sound (carrier frequency) to 2 kHz or below with function
code F26.
Otherwise a failure could occur.
Installation and wiring of an option card
• Before installing an RS-485 Communications Card, turn off the power, wait more than five
minutes, and make sure, using a circuit tester or a similar instrument, that the DC link bus
voltage between the terminals P (+) and N (-) has dropped below a safe voltage (+25
VDC).
• Do not remove the terminal cover for the control circuits while power is applied, because
high voltage lines exist on the RS-485 Communications Card.
Failure to observe these precautions could cause electric shock.
v
• In general, sheaths and covers of the control signal cables and wires are not specifically
designed to withstand a high electric field (i.e., reinforced insulation is not applied).
Therefore, if a control signal cable or wire comes into direct contact with a live conductor of
the main circuit, the insulation of the sheath or the cover might break down, which would
expose the signal wire to a high voltage of the main circuit. Make sure that the control
signal cables and wires will not come into contact with live conductors of the main circuits.
Failure to observe these precautions could cause electric shock and/or an acci-
dent.
Maintenance and inspection, and parts replacement
• Turn the power off and wait for at least five minutes before starting inspection. Further,
check that the LED monitor is unlit, and check the DC link bus voltage between the P (+)
and N (-) terminals to be lower than 25 VDC.
Otherwise, electric shock could occur.
• Maintenance, inspection, and parts replacement should be made only by qualified persons.
• Take off the watch, rings and other metallic matter before starting work.
• Use insulated tools.
Otherwise, electric shock or injuries could occur.
Disposal
• Handle the inverter as an industrial waste when disposing of it.
Otherwise injuries could occur.
Others
• Never attempt to modify the inverter.
Doing so could cause electric shock or injuries.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Drawings in this manual may be illustrated without covers or safety shields for explanation of
detail parts. Restore the covers and shields in the original state and observe the description in
the manual before starting operation.
vi
Conformity to the Low Voltage Directive in the EU
If installed according to the guidelines given below, inverters marked with CE or TÜV are considered
as compliant with the Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC.
1. The ground terminal G should always be connected to the ground. Do not use only a
residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/a ground fault circuit interrupter(GFCI)*
as the sole method of electric shock protection. Be sure to use ground wires whose size is
greater than power supply lines.
* With overcurrent protection.
2. When used with the inverter, a molded case circuit breaker (MCCB), residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/ a ground fault circuit interrupter(GFCI) or
magnetic contactor (MC) should conform to the EN or IEC standards.
3. When you use a residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/ a ground fault circuit
interrupter(GFCI) for protection from electric shock in direct or indirect contact power lines
or nodes, be sure to install type Bof RCD/GFCI on the input (primary) of the inverter if the
power source is three-phase 230/460 V. For single-phase 230 V power supplies, use type A.
When you use no RCD/GFCI, take any other protective measure that isolates the electric
equipment from other equipment on the same power supply line using double or reinforced
insulation or that isolates the power supply lines connected to the electric equipment using
an isolation transformer.
4. The inverter should be used in an environment that does not exceed Pollution Degree 2
requirements. If the environment conforms to Pollution Degree 3 or 4, install the inverter in
an enclosure of IP54 or higher.
5. Install the inverter, AC or DC reactor, input or output filter in an enclosure with minimum
degree of protection of IP2X (Top surface of enclosure shall be minimum IP4X when it can
be easily accessed), to prevent human body from touching directly to live parts of these
equipment.
6. To make an inverter with no integrated EMC filter conform to the EMC directive, it is necessary to connect an external EMC filter to the inverter and install them properly so that the
entire equipment including the inverter conforms to the EMC directive.
7. Do not connect any copper wire directly to grounding terminals. Use crimp terminals with tin
or equivalent plating to connect them.
8. To connect the three-phase or single-phase 230 V class series of inverters to the power
supply in Overvoltage Category III or to connect the three-phase 460 V class series of inverters to the power supply in Overvoltage Category II or III, a supplementary insulation is
required for the control circuitry.
9. When using inverters at an altitude of more than 6600ft(2000m), note that the basic insulation applies to the insulation degree of the control circuitry. At an altitude of more than
9900ft(3000m), inverters cannot be used.
10. The power supply mains neutral has to be earthed for the three-phase 460 V class inverter.

Brake motors
When driving a 460 V general-purpose motor with an inverter
using extremely long wires, damage to the insulation of the
motor may occur. Use an output circuit filter (OFL) if necessary after checking with the motor manufacturer. Fuji motors
do not require the use of output circuit filters because of their
good insulation.
When the inverter is used to run a general-purpose motor, the
temperature of the motor becomes higher than when it is
operated using a commercial power supply. In the low-speed
range, the cooling effect will be weakened, so decrease the
output torque of the motor. If constant torque is required in the
low-speed range, use a Fuji inverter motor or a motor
equipped with an externally powered ventilating fan.
When an inverter-driven motor is mounted to a machine,
resonance may be caused by the natural frequencies of the
machine system.
Note that operation of a 2-pole motor at 60 Hz or higher may
cause abnormal vibration.
* The use of a rubber coupling or vibration dampening rubber
is recommended.
* Use the inverter's jump frequency control feature to skip the
resonance frequency zone(s).
When an inverter is used with a general-purpose motor, the
motor noise level is higher than that with a commercial power
supply. To reduce noise, raise carrier frequency of the inverter. Operation at 60 Hz or higher can also result in higher
noise level.
If the reference frequency is set to 120 Hz or more to drive a
high-speed motor, test-run the combination of the inverter
and motor beforehand to check for safe operation.
When driving an explosion-proof motor with an inverter, use a
combination of a motor and an inverter that has been approved in advance.
These motors have a larger rated current than general-purpose motors. Select an inverter whose rated output
current is greater than that of the motor.
These motors differ from general-purpose motors in thermal
characteristics. Set a low value in the thermal time constant
of the motor when setting the electronic thermal function.
For motors equipped with parallel-connected brakes, their
braking power must be supplied from the input (primary)
circuit. If the brake power is connected to the inverter's output
(secondary) circuit by mistake, the brake will not work.
Do not use inverters for driving motors equipped with series-connected brakes.

Protecting the
motor
If the power transmission mechanism uses an oil-lubricated
gearbox or speed changer/reducer, then continuous motor
operation at low speed may cause poor lubrication. Avoid
such operation.
It is necessary to take special measures suitable for this
motor type. Contact your Fuji Electric representative for details.
Single-phase motors are not suitable for inverter-driven variable speed operation. Use three-phase motors.
* Even if a single-phase power supply is available, us
three-phase motor as the inverter provides three-phase
output.
Use the inverter within the ambient temperature range from
-10 to +50C(14 to 122°F).
The heat sink and braking resistor of the inverter may be-
come hot under certain operating conditions, so install the
inverter on nonflammable material such as metal.
Ensure that the installation location meets the environmental
conditions specified in Chapter 2, Section 2.1 "Operating
Environment."
Install a recommended molded case circuit breaker (MCCB)
or residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/a
ground fault circuit interrupter(GFCI)(with overcurrent protection) in the input (primary) circuit of the inverter to protect
the wiring. Ensure that the circuit breaker capacity is equivalent to or lower than the recommended capacity.
If a magnetic contactor (MC) is mounted in the inverter's
secondary circuit for switching the motor to commercial
power or for any other purpose, ensure that both the inverter
and the motor are completely stopped before you turn the MC
on or off.
Do not connect a magnet contactor united with a surge killer
to the inverter's secondary circuit.
Do not turn the magnetic contactor (MC) in the input (primary)
circuit on or off more than once an hour as an inverter failure
may result.
If frequent starts or stops are required during motor operation, use FWD/REV signals or the / keys.
The electronic thermal function of the inverter can protect the
motor. The operation level and the motor type (general-purpose motor, inverter motor) should be set. For
high-speed motors or water-cooled motors, set a small value
for the thermal time constant and protect the motor.
If you connect the motor thermal relay to the motor with a long
wire, a high-frequency current may flow into the wiring stray
capacitance. This may cause the relay to trip at a current
lower than the set value for the thermal relay. If this happens,
lower the carrier frequency or use the output circuit filter
(OFL).

occur, disabling motor operation.
Do not connect a surge killer to the inverter's secondary
circuit.
Use of a filter and shielded wires is typically recommended to
satisfy EMC directives.

500 V megger and follow the instructions contained in
Chapter 7, Section 7.4 "Insulation Test."
Control circuit
wiring length
When using remote control, limit the wiring length between
the inverter and operator box to 65ft (20m) or less and use

listed in the standard specifications table for the inverter.
When high starting torque is required or quick acceleration or
deceleration is required, select an inverter with a capacity
one size greater than the standard.
Select an inverter that meets the following condition:
Inverter rated current > Motor rated current
inside the inverter may be corroded by halogen compounds such as methyl bromide used in fumigation.
When packing an inverter alone for export, use a laminated veneer lumber (LVL).

1.3 Transportation
• When carrying the inverter, always support its bottom at the front and rear sides with both hands.
Do not hold covers or individual parts only. You may drop the inverter or break it.
• Avoid applying excessively strong force to the terminal block covers as they are made of plastic
and are easily broken.

Even if the humidity is within the specified requirements, avoid such places where the inverter will be
subjected to sudden changes in temperature that will cause condensation to form.
Precautions for temporary storage
(1) Do not leave the inverter directly on the floor.
(2) If the environment does not satisfy the specified requirements, wrap the inverter in an airtight
vinyl sheet or the like for storage.
(3) If the inverter is to be stored in an environment with a high level of humidity, put a drying agent
(such as silica gel) in the airtight package described in item (2).

1.4.2 Long-term storage
The long-term storage methods for the inverter vary largely according to the environment of the
storage site. General storage methods are described below.
(1) The storage site must satisfy the requirements specified for temporary storage.
However, for storage exceeding three months, the ambient temperature should be within the
range from -10 to +30 °C (14 to 86°F) .This is to prevent the electrolytic capacitors in the inverter
from deteriorating.
(2) The inverter must be stored in a package that is airtight to protect it from moisture. Include a
drying agent inside the package to maintain the relative humidity inside the package to within
70%.
(3) If the inverter has been installed in the equipment or control board at a construction site where it
may be subjected to humidity, dust or dirt, then remove the inverter and store it in a suitable
environment specified in Table 1.1.
Precautions for storage over 1 year
If the inverter will not be powered on for a long time, the property of the electrolytic capacitors may
deteriorate. Power the inverters on once a year and keep them on for 30 to 60 minutes. Do not
connect the inverters to motors or run the motor.

2.3.4 Wiring precautions
Follow the rules below when performing wiring for the inverter.
(1) Make sure that the source voltage is within the rated voltage range specified on the nameplate.
(2) Be sure to connect the power wires to the main circuit power input terminals L1/R, L2/S and
L3/T (for three-phase voltage input) or L1/L and L2/N (for single-phase voltage input) of the
inverter. If the power wires are connected to other terminals, the inverter will be damaged when
the power is turned on.
(3) Always connect the grounding terminal to prevent electric shock, fire or other disasters and to
reduce electric noise.
(4) Use crimp terminals covered with insulated sleeves for the main circuit terminal wiring to ensure
a reliable connection.
(5) Keep the power supply wiring (primary circuit) and motor wiring (secondary circuit) of the main
circuit, and control circuit wiring as far away as possible from each other.
• When wiring the inverter to the power source, insert a recommended molded case circuit
breaker (MCCB) or residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/ a ground fault
circuit interrupter(GFCI)(with overcurrent protection) (with overcurrent protection) in the
path of power lines. Use the devices within the related current range.
• Use wires in the specified size.
Otherwise, fire could occur.
• Do not use one multicore cable in order to connect several inverters with motors.
• Do not connect a surge killer to the inverter's output (secondary) circuit.
Doing so could cause fire.
• Be sure to connect the grounding wires without fail.
Otherwise, electric shock or fire could occur.
• Qualified electricians should carry out wiring.
• Be sure to perform wiring after turning the power off.
• Ground the inverter following Class C or Class D specifications or national/local electric
code, depending on the input voltage of the inverter.
Otherwise, electric shock could occur.
• Be sure to perform wiring after installing the inverter body.
Otherwise, electric shock or injuries could occur.
• Ensure that the number of input phases and the rated voltage of the product match the
number of phases and the voltage of the AC power supply to which the product is to be
connected.
Otherwise, fire or an accident could occur.
• Do not connect the power source wires to output terminals (U, V, and W).
• Do not connect a braking resistor to between terminals P (+) and N (-), P1 and N (-), P (+)
and P1, DB and N (-), or P1 and DB.
Doing so could cause fire or an accident.

• If the wiring length is long, the stray capacitance between the wires will increase,
resulting in an outflow of the leakage current. It will activate the overcurrent protection,
increase the leakage current, or will not assure the accuracy of the current display. In
the worst case, the inverter could be damaged.
• If more than one motor is to be connected to a single inverter, the wiring length should
• If a thermal relay is installed in the path between the inverter and the motor to protect
the motor from overheating, the thermal relay may malfunction even with a wiring
length shorter than 164ft (50m). In this situation, add an output circuit filter (option) or
lower the carrier frequency (Function code F26: Motor sound (Sound tune)).
• If the motor is driven by a PWM-type inverter, surge voltage that is generated by
switching the inverter component may be superimposed on the output voltage and
may be applied to the motor terminals. Particularly if the wiring length is long, the surge
voltage may deteriorate the insulation resistance of the motor. Consider any of the
following measures.
- Use a motor with insulation that withstands the surge voltage. (Use a motor 1300V
insulation.)
- Connect an output circuit filter (option) to the output terminals (secondary circuits) of
the inverter.
- Minimize the wiring length between the inverter and motor (65ft (20m) or less).
• When the wiring length between the inverter and motor exceeds 33ft(10m), the filter
circuit may be overheated and damaged due to increase of leakage current. To reduce
the leakage current, set the motor sound (carrier frequency) to 2 kHz or below with
function code F26.

2.3.7 Wiring for control circuit terminals
In general, sheaths and covers of the control signal cables and wires are not specifically designed to
withstand a high electric field (i.e., reinforced insulation is not applied). Therefore, if a control signal
cable or wire comes into direct contact with a live conductor of the main circuit, the insulation of the
sheath or the cover might break down, which would expose the signal wire to a high voltage of the main
circuit. Make sure that the control signal cables and wires will not come into contact with live conductors
of the main circuit.
Failure to observe these precautions could cause electric shock and/or an accident.
Noise may be emitted from the inverter, motor and wires.
Implement appropriate measure to prevent the nearby sensors and devices from malfunctioning
due to such noise.
An accident could occur.

- Since weak analog signals are handled, these signals are especially susceptible
to the external noise effects. Route the wiring as short as possible (within 65ft/20
m) and use shielded wires. In principle, ground the shielding layer of the shielded
wires; if effects of external inductive noises are considerable, connection to
terminal [11] may be effective. As shown in Figure 2.13, ground the single end of
the shield to enhance the shielding effect.
- Use a twin contact relay for weak signals if the relay is used in the control circuit.
Do not connect the relay's contact to terminal [11].
- When the inverter is connected to an external device outputting the analog
signal, a malfunction may be caused by electric noise generated by the inverter.
If this happens, according to the circumstances, connect a ferrite core (a toroidal
core or an equivalent) to the device outputting the analog signal and/or connect a
capacitor having the good cut-off characteristics for high frequency between
control signal wires as shown in Figure 2.14.

- Do not apply a voltage of +7.5 VDC or higher to terminal [C1]. Doing so could

voltage between the terminals P (+) and N (-) has dropped below a safe voltage (+25

• Do not remove the terminal cover for the control circuits while power is applied, because
a high voltage exists on the RS-485 Communications Card.
Failure to observe these precautions could cause electric shock.
• In general, sheaths and covers of the control signal cables and wires are not specifically
designed to withstand a high electric field (i.e., reinforced insulation is not applied).
Therefore, if a control signal cable or wire comes into direct contact with a live conductor
of the main circuit, the insulation of the sheath or the cover might break down, which
would expose the signal wire to a high voltage of the main circuit. Make sure that the
control signal cables and wires will not come into contact with live conductors of the main

2.3.11 Cautions relating to harmonic component, noise, and leakage current
(1) Harmonic component
Input current to an inverter includes a harmonic component, which may affect other loads and power
factor correcting capacitors that are connected to the same power source as the inverter. If the
harmonic component causes any problems, connect a DC reactor (option) to the inverter. It may also
be necessary to connect an AC reactor to the power factor correcting capacitors.
(2) Noise
If noise generated from the inverter affects other devices, or that generated from peripheral
equipment causes the inverter to malfunction, follow the basic measures outlined below.
1) If noise generated from the inverter affects the other devices through power wires or grounding
wires:
- Isolate the grounded metal frames of the inverter from those of the other devices.
- Connect a noise filter to the inverter power wires.
- Isolate the power system of the other devises from that of the inverter with an insulated
transformer.
2) If induction or radio noise generated from the inverter affects other devices through power wires
or grounding wires:
- Isolate the main circuit wires from the control circuit wires and other device wires.
- Put the main circuit wires through a metal conduit and connect the pipe to the ground near the
inverter.
- Mount the inverter on the metal switchboard and connect the whole board to the ground.
- Connect a noise filter to the inverter power wires.
3) When implementing measures against noise generated from peripheral equipment:
- For the control signal wires, use twisted or shielded-twisted wires. When using
shielded-twisted wires, connect the shield of the shielded wires to the common terminals of
the control circuit.
- Connect a surge absorber in parallel with a coil or solenoid of the magnetic contactor.
(3) Leakage current
Harmonic component current generated by insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) switching
on/off inside the inverter becomes leakage current through stray capacitors of inverter input and
output wires or a motor. If any of the problems listed below occur, take appropriate measures against
them.

Make setting under PID control
To enable PID control, you need to set function code J01 to 1 or 2.
Under the PID control, the items that can be set or checked with the and keys are different
from those under regular frequency control, depending upon the current LED monitor setting. If the
LED monitor is set to the speed monitor (E43 = 0), you may access manual feed commands (Reference frequency) with the and keys; if it is set to any other, you may access PID process
command with those keys.
Refer to the FRENIC-Mini User's Manual, Chapter 4, Section 4.8 "PID Frequency Command
Generator" for details on the PID control.
Setting the PID process command with the built-in potentiometer
(1) Set function code E60 to "3: PID process command 1."
(2) Set function code J02 to "1: PID process command 1."
Setting the PID process command with the and keys
(1) Set function code J02 to "0: / keys on the built-in keypad."
(2) Set the LED monitor to something other than the speed monitor (E43 = 0) in Running mode.
This setting is possible only in Running mode.
(3) Press the or key to display the PID process command. The lowest digit of the displayed
command and the decimal point blink.
(4) To change the PID process command, press the or key again. The PID process com-
mand you have specified will be automatically saved into the inverter’s memory. It is kept there
even if you temporarily switch to another means of specifying the PID process command and
then go back to the means of specifying the PID process command via the remote keypad. Also,
it is kept there even while the inverter is powered off, and will be used as the initial PID process
command next time the inverter is powered on.
• Even if multi-frequency is selected as the PID process command (SS 4 = ON),
can set the process command using the remote keypad.
• When function code J02 data has been set to any value except 0, pressing the or
key displays the PID process command currently selected (you cannot change the setting).
• When a PID process command is displayed, the decimal point

Displaying I/O signal status in hexadecimal format
Each I/O terminal is assigned to bit 15 through bit 0 as shown in Table 3.17. An unassigned bit is
interpreted as "0." Allocated bit data is displayed on the LED monitor in 4 hexadecimal digits ("0" to
"F" each).
With the FRENIC-Mini, digital input terminals [FWD] and [REV] are assigned to bit 0 and bit 1,
respectively. Terminals [X1] through [X3] are assigned to bits 2 through 4. The bit is set to "1" when
the corresponding input terminal is short-circuited with terminal [CM] or terminal [PLC] *, and is set to
"0" when it is open. For example, when [FWD] and [X1] are on (short-circuited) and all the others are
off (open), "0005" is displayed on LED4 to LED1.
* Terminal [CM] if the jumper switch is set for a sink; terminal [PLC] if the jumper switch is set for a
source.
Digital output terminal [Y1] is assigned to bit 0. Bit 0 is set to "1" when this terminal is short-circuited
with [Y1E], and to "0" when it is open. The status of the relay contact output terminal [30ABC] is
assigned to bit 8. It is set to "1" when the circuit between output terminals [30A] and [30C] is closed
and to "0" when the circuit between [30B] and [30C] is closed. For example, if [Y1] is on and [30A] is
connected to [30C], then "0101" is displayed on the LED4 to LED1.

Displaying control I/O signal terminals under communication control
During control via communication, input commands sent via RS-485 communications cable can be
displayed in two ways: "display with ON/OFF of the LED segment" and "in hexadecimal format." The
content to be displayed is basically the same as that for the control I/O signal terminal status display;
however, (XF), (XR), and (RST) are added as inputs. Note that under communications control, I/O
display is in normal logic (using the original signals that are not inverted).

4.1.4 Test run
If the user set the function codes wrongly or without completely understanding this Instruction
Manual and the FRENIC-Mini User's Manual, the motor may rotate with a torque or at a speed
not permitted for the machine.
Accident or injury may result.
Follow the descriptions given in Section 4.1.1, "Inspection and Preparation prior to the Operation" to
Section 4.1.3, "Preparation before running the motor for a test," and begin test-driving of the motor.
If any abnormality is found to the inverter or motor, immediately stop operation and determine the
cause referring to Chapter 6, "TROUBLESHOOTING."
------------------------------------------------ Procedure for Test Run ------------------------------------------------
(1) Turn the power on and check that the LED monitor blinks while indicating the
*00
Hz
frequency.
(2) With the built-in potentiometer clockwise, set a low frequency such as 5 Hz. (Check that the
frequency displayed on the LED monitor blinks.)
(3) Press the key to start running the motor in the forward direction. (Check that the reference
frequency is displayed on the LED monitor correctly.)
(4) To stop the motor, press the key.
<Check the following points>
• Check if the direction of rotation is correct.
• Check for smooth rotation without motor humming or excessive vibration.
• Check for smooth acceleration and deceleration.
When no abnormality is found, rotate the potentiometer clockwise to raise the reference frequency.
Check the above points for the test-driving of the motor.
After confirming that the inverter normally drives the motor in a test run, make mechanical
connections (connections to the machine system) and electrical connections (wiring and cabling),
and configure the necessary function codes properly before starting a production run.
Depending on the production run conditions, further adjustments can be required, such
as adjustments of torque boost (F09), acceleration time (F07/E10), and deceleration time
(F08/E11).

Chapter 5 FUNCTION CODES
5.1 Function Code Tables
Function codes enable the FRENIC-Mini series of inverters to be set up to match your system
requirements.
Each function code consists of a 3-letter string. The first letter is an alphabet that identifies its group
and the following two letters are numerals that identify each individual code in the group. The
function codes are classified into seven groups: Fundamental Functions (F codes), Extension
Terminal Functions (E codes), Control Functions of Frequency (C codes), Motor Parameters (P
codes), High Performance Functions (H codes), Application Functions (J codes), and Link Function
(y codes). To determine the property of each function code, set data to the function code.
The following descriptions supplement those given in the function code tables on page 5-3 and
subsequent pages.
Changing, validating, and saving function code data when the motor is running
Function codes are indicated by the following based on whether they can be changed or not when
the inverter is running:
Notation Change when running
Y* Possible
Y Possible
N Impossible —
Copying data
Connecting a remote keypad (option) to an inverter via the RS-485 communications card (option)
allows copying the data stored in the inverter's memory into the keypad's memory (refer to Menu #7
"Data copying" in Programming mode). With this feature, you can easily transfer the data saved in a
source inverter to other destination inverters.
If the specifications of the source and destination inverters differ, some code data may not be copied
to ensure safe operation of your power system. Therefore, you need to set up the uncopied code
data individually as necessary. Whether data will be copied or not is detailed with the following
symbols in the "Data copy" column of the function code tables given below.
Y: Will be copied unconditionally.
Y1: Will not be copied if the rated capacity differs from the source inverter.
Y2: Will not be copied if the rated input voltage differs from the source inverter.
N: Will not be copied. (The function code marked "N" is not subject to the Verify operation, either.)
It is recommended that you set up those function codes which are not subject to the Copy operation
individually using Menu #1 "Data setting" as necessary.
Refer to the Remote Keypad Instruction Manual for details.
If the data of the codes marked with Y* is changed, the change
will immediately take effect; however, the change is not saved
into the inverter's memory. To save the change, press the
key. If you press the key without pressing the key to exit
the current state, then the changed data will be discarded and
the previous data will take effect for the inverter operation.
The data of the codes marked with Y can be changed with the
and keys regardless of whether the motor is running or
not. Pressing the key will make the change effective and
save it into the inverter's memory.
Validating and saving function code data
5-1
Using negative logic for programmable I/O terminals
The negative logic signaling system can be used for the digital input and output terminals by setting
the function code data specifying the properties for those terminals. Negative logic refers to the
inverted ON/OFF (logical value 1 (true)/0 (false)) state of input or output signal. An active-ON signal
(the function takes effect if the terminal is short-circuited.) in the normal logic system is functionally
equivalent to active-OFF signal (the function takes effect if the terminal is opened.) in the negative
logic system. An active-ON signal can be switched to active-OFF signal, and vice versa, with the
function code data setting.
To set the negative logic system for an I/O terminal, enter data of 1000s (by adding 1000 to the data
for the normal logic) in the corresponding function code. Some signals cannot switch to active-OFF
depending upon their assigned functions.
Example: "Coast to a stop" command BX assigned to any of digital input terminals [X1] to [X3] using
any of function codes E01 through E03
Function code data BX
7 Turning BX ON causes the motor to coast to a stop. (Active ON)
1007 Turning BX OFF causes the motor to coast to a stop. (Active OFF)
Restriction on data displayed on the LED monitor
Only four digits can be displayed on the 4-digit LED monitor. If you enter more than 4 digits of data
valid for a function code, any digits after the 4th digit of the set data will not be displayed, however
they will be processed correctly.

F02
Operation Method
Selects a source issuing a run command--keypad or external control signal input.
- If F02 = 0, 2, or 3, the inverter can run the motor by the and keys on the
built-in keypad. The motor rotational direction can be specified in two ways, either by control signal input (F02 = 0) or by use of prefixed forward or reverse
rotation (F02 = 2 or 3).
When F02 = 0, to specify the motor rotational direction by control signal input,
assign the commands FWD and RE V to terminals [FWD] and [REV], respectively.
Turn on the FWD or REV for the forward or reverse direction, respectively, and
then press the key to run the motor.
- If F02 = 1, the inverter can run the motor by control signal inputs. To specify the
motor rotational direction, assign the commands FWD and REV to terminals
[FWD] and [REV], respectively. Turn on the FWD or REV for the forward or reverse direction, respectively. If both of FWD and RE V are turned on simultaneously, the inverter immediately decelerates to stop the motor.

F03
Maximum Frequency
Sets the maximum frequency to drive the motor. Setting the frequency out of the
range rated for the equipment driven by the inverter may cause damage or a
dangerous situation. Set a maximum frequency appropriate for the equipment. For
high-speed motors, it is recommended that the carrier frequency be set to 15 kHz.
The inverter can easily set high-speed operation. When changing the speed setting,
carefully check the specifications of motors or equipment beforehand.

Base Frequency
Rated Voltage at Base Frequency
Non-linear V/f Pattern (Frequency)
Non-linear V/f Pattern (Voltage)
These function codes set the base frequency and the voltage at the base frequency
essentially required for running the motor properly. If combined with the related
function codes H50 and H51, these function codes may set data needed to drive the
motor along the non-linear V/f pattern.
The following description includes setting-up required for the non-linear V/f pattern.
Base frequency (F04)
Set the rated frequency printed on the nameplate located on the motor.
Rated voltage at base frequency (F05)
Set 0 or the rated voltage printed on the nameplate labeled on the motor.
- If 0 is set, the inverter supplies voltage equivalent to that of the power source of
the inverter at the base frequency. In this case, the output voltage will vary in line
with any variance in input voltage.
- If the data is set to anything other than 0, the inverter automatically keeps the
output voltage constant in line with the setting. When any of the automatic torque
boost settings, automatic energy saving or slip compensation is active, the voltage settings should be equal to the rating of the motor.

frequency), the inverter output voltage may be limited.
Defining non-linear V/f patterns (F04, F05, H50 and H51)
Function codes F04 and F05 define a non-linear V/f pattern that forms the relationship between the inverter's output frequency and voltage.
Furthermore, setting the non-linear V/f pattern using function codes H50 and H51
allows patterns with higher or lower voltage than that of the normal pattern to be
defined at an arbitrary point inside or outside the base frequency. Generally, when a
motor is driven at a high speed, its internal impedance may increase and output
torque may decrease due to the decreased drive voltage. This feature helps you
solve that problem. Note that setting the voltage in excess of the inverter’s input
source voltage is not allowed. (For the single-phase 100 V class series, setting the
voltage that is two times or more the inverter's input source voltage is not allowed.)

to the maximum frequency. The deceleration time specifies the length of time the
frequency decreases from the maximum frequency down to 0 Hz.

Manual torque boost
In manual torque boost mode, the inverter maintains the output at a constant level
regardless of the load. When you use this mode, select the appropriate V/f pattern
(variable torque or constant torque characteristics) with Load Selection (F37). To
keep the motor starting torque, manually select optimal inverter output voltage for
the motor and load by setting an optimal torque boost rate to F09 in accordance with
the motor and its load.
Setting an excessive torque boost rate may result in over-excitation and overheat of
the motor during light or no load operation.
Manual torque boost keeps the output voltage constant even if the load varies,
assuring stable motor operation.

Automatic torque boost
This feature automatically optimizes the output voltage to fit the motor and its load.
Under a light load, it decreases the output voltage to prevent the motor from
over-excitation; under a heavy load, it increases the output voltage to increase
torque.
Since this feature is related to the motor properties, it is necessary to set the rated
voltage at base frequency (F05) and motor parameters (P codes) properly.

Auto energy saving operation
This feature controls the terminal voltage of the motor automatically to minimize the
motor power loss. (Note that this feature may not be effective depending upon the
motor characteristics. Check the characteristics before using this feature.)
The inverter enables this feature for constant speed operation only. During acceleration and deceleration, the inverter will run with manual or automatic torque boost,
depending on function code F37. If auto energy saving operation is enabled, the
response to a change in motor speed may be slow. Do not use this feature for a
system that requires quick acceleration and deceleration.
