4. WIRING

Wiring Instructions
(1) Always connect the power input terminals R/L1, S/L2, and T/L3 (R/L1,
S/L2 for single-phase) and power supply via a molded-case circuit braker (MCCB) or a fuse. Never connect them to terminals U/T1,V/T2,W/T3, –, +1 or +2.
Refer to page 111 for recommended peripheral devices. For single­phase inverters, always use terminals R/L1 and S/L2. Never connect to terminal T/L3.
Inverter Power Supply Connection Terminals
(2) Connect the motor wiring to terminals U/T1, V/T2 and W/T3 on the
main circuit output side (bottom of the inverter).
(3) If the wiring distance between inverter and motor is long, reduce the
inverter carrier frequency. For details, refer to “Reducing motor noise or leakage current (n46)” on page 57.
(4) Control wiring must be less than 50m (164ft) in length and separate from
the power wiring. Use twisted-pair shielded wire when inputting the
frequency signal externally. (5) Tighten the screws on the main circuit and control circuit terminals. (6) Do not connect or disconnect wiring, or perform signal check while the
power supply is turned ON. (7) For 400V class inverters, make sure to ground the supply neutral to con-
form to CE requirements. (8) Only basic insulation to meet the requirements of protection class 1 and
overvoltage category II is provided with control circuit terminals.
Additional insulation may be necessary in the end product to conform to
CE requirements. (9) A closed-loop connector should be used when wiring to the main circuit
terminal. (10) Voltage drop should be considered when determining wire size.
Voltage drop can be calculated using the following equation:
Phase-to phase voltage drop (V) = √3 × wire resistance (Ω/km) × wiring distance (m) × current (A) × 10
-3
Select a wire size so that voltage drop will be less than 2% of the normal
rated voltage.

Typical setting of V/f pattern
Set the V/f pattern according to the application as described below. For 400V class, the voltage values (n10, n13, and n15) should be doubled. When running at a frequency exceeding 50Hz/60Hz, change the maximum output frequency (n09).
Note: Be sure to set the maximum output frequency according to the motor characteristics.
(1) For general-purpose applications
(2) For fans/pumps
(3) For applications requiring high starting torque
Increasing voltage of V/f pattern increases motor torque, but an excessive increase may cause motor overexcitation, motor overheat or vibration.
Note : n12 is to be set to motor rated voltage.

Full-range automatic torque boost
Motor torque requirement changes according to load conditions. Full­range automatic torque boost adjusts voltage of V/f pattern according to the requirement. The VS mini automatically adjusts the voltage during constant-speed operation as well as during acceleration. The required torque is calculated by the inverter. This ensures tripless operation and energy-saving effects.
Operation
Normally, no adjustment is necessary for torque compensation gain (n63 factory setting : 1.0). When the wiring distance between the inverter and the motor is long, or when the motor generates vibration, change the automatic torque compensation gain. In these cases, set the V/f pattern (n09 to n15).

To operate coasting motor without trip, use the speed search command or DC injection braking at start.
• Speed search command
Restarts a coasting motor without stopping it. This function enables smooth switching between motor commercial power supply operation and inverter operation.
Set input terminal function selection (n36 to n39) to “14” (search command from maximum output frequency) or “15” (search command from set frequency).
Build a sequence so that FWD (REV) run command is input at the same time as the search command or after the search command. If the run command is input before the search command, the search command becomes disabled.
• Time chart at search command input
• DC injection braking at start (n52, n54)
Restarts a coasting motor after stopping it. Set the DC injection braking time at start in n54 in units of 0.1 second. Set DC injection braking current in n52 in units of 1% (inverter rated current =100%). When the setting of n54 is “0”, DC injection braking is not performed and acceleration starts from the minimum output frequency. When n52 is set to 0, acceleration starts from the minimum output frequency after the baseblocking for n54 setting time.

Selecting Stopping Method

Selects the stopping method suitable for application.
Deceleration to stop
Example when accel/decel time 1 is selected
Upon termination of the FWD (REV) run command, the motor decelerates at the decel rate determined by the time set to deceleration time 1 (n17) and DC injection braking is applied immediately before stop. DC injection braking is also applied when the motor decelerates by setting frequency reference lower than min. output frequency (n14) with FWD (or REV) run command ON. If the decel time is short or the load inertia is large, overvoltage (OV) fault may occur at deceleration. In this case, increase the decel time.

Preventing Motor from Stalling (Current Limit)
Automatically adjusts the output frequency and output current according to the load to continue operation without stalling the motor.
Stall prevention (current limit) level during acceleration (n56)
Sets the stall prevention (current limit) level during acceleration in units of 1% (Inverter rated current = 100%).
Factory setting: 170%
A setting of 200% disables the stall prevention (current limit) during acceleration. During acceleration, if the output current exceeds the value set for n56, acceleration stops and frequency is maintained. When the output current goes down to the value set for n56, acceleration starts.
*Stops the acceleration to prevent the motor from
stalling.
Release width (hysteresis) of stall prevention
during accel is approx. 5% of inverter rated current.
In the constant output area [output frequency > max. voltage output frequency (n11)], following equation automatically decreases the stall prevention (current limit) level during acceleration.

Decreasing Motor Speed Fluctuation
As the load becomes larger, motor speed is reduced and motor slip value is increased. The slip compensating function controls the motor speed at a constant value even if the load varies. When inverter output current is equal to the motor rated current (n32), the compensation frequency is added to the output frequency.
Constants
* Differs depending on inverter capacity.
Notes : 1. Slip compensation is not performed in the following condition:
Output frequency < min. output frequency (n14)
2. Slip compensation is not performed during regeneration.

Motor Protection
The VS mini protects against motor overload with a built-in electronic thermal overload relay.
Motor rated current (electoronic thermal reference current, n32)
Set to the rated current value shown on the motor nameplate.
Note: Setting to 0.0A disables the motor overload protective function.
Motor overload protection selection (n33, n34)
The electronic thermal overload function monitors motor temperature, based on inverter output current and time, to protect the motor from overheating. When electronic thermal overload relay is enabled, an OL1 error occurs, shutting OFF the inverter output and preventing excessive overheating in the motor. When operating with one inverter connected to one motor, an external thermal relay is not needed. When operating several motors with one inverter, install a thermal relay on each motor.

Using MEMOBUS (MODBUS) Communications
Serial communication is available with VS mini using programmable controller (MEMOCON series) and MEMOBUS. In order to perform serial communications, RS-485/422 interface card (optional) must be installed. Refer to MEMOBUS Instruction Manual (Manual No.: TOEZ-C736-70.1) for details of communications.

MEMOBUS (MODBUS) communications

MEMOBUS system is composed of a single master (PLC) and slaves (1 to 31 VS-mini units). Communication between master and slave (serial communication) is controlled according to the master program with the master initiating communication and the slave responding. The master sends a signal to one slave at a time. Each slave has a pre­registered address No., and the master specifies the number and conduct signal communications. The slave receives the communication to carry out designated functions and reply to the master.

Using Constant Copy Function
The digital operator for remote operation (Model JVOP-146, Optional) can store constants for one inverter. A backup power supply is not necessary since EEPROM is used.
Note: When using a digital operator for remote operation, use with a remote
interface unit for remote operation (optional) and the cable for remote operation (optional). Refer to the VS mini J7 catalog (Literature No. KAE-S606-12) for details.
Constant copy function is possible only for the inverters with same product series and power supply specifications. However, some constants may not be copied. It is also impossible to copy constants between VS mini and VS­606V7 inverters. The prohibition of the reading of constants from the inverter can be set at n77. The constant data cannot be changed when this constant is set.
If any alarm occurs during constant copy, the PRGM will blink and copying will continue.
Constant copy function selection (n76)
Depending on the setting of n76 for constant copy function selection, the following functions are available:
(1) Read all the constants from the inverter (READ) and store them in
EEPROM in the digital operator.
(2) Copies the constants stored in the digital operator to the inverter (COPY).
(3) Verify that the constants in the digital operator and the constants in
the inverter are the same (VERIFY).
(4) Displays the maximum applicable motor capacity and the voltage class
of the inverter that has the constants stored in the digital operator.
(5) Displays the software number of the inverter that has the constants
stored in the digital operator.

Trouble Cause Corrective Actions
The motor does not operate when an external operation signal is input.
The operation method selection is wrong.
The run command (n02) is not set to Control Circuit Terminal.
Set the run command (n02) to Control Circuit Terminal.
A 3-wire sequence is in effect.
The multi-function input method (n37) is set to 3-wire sequence, and the S2 control terminal is not closed.
To use a 3-wire sequence, make the wiring so that the S2 control terminal is closed. To use a 2-wire sequence, set the multi­function input (n37) to a value other than 3-wire sequence.
The motor stops. The torque is not output.
The stall prevention level during acceleration is too low.
Because the stall prevention level during acceleration (n56) is set too low, the output current reaches the set level, the output frequency is stopped, and the acceleration time is lengthened.
Check if the stall prevention level during acceleration (n56) is set to an appropriate value.
Local mode is in effect. Set the LO/RE selection of the
digital operator to RE.
The SW setting for the reference selection is wrong.
Example: The reference 4-20mA is input, but the SW is set to "V".
For analog input, make sure that the frequency reference (n03) and SW settings are correct.
The stall prevention level during running is too low.
Because the stall prevention level during running (n57) is set too low, the output current reaches the set level, and the speed drops.
Check if the stall prevention level during running (n57) is set to an appropriate value.
The load is too heavy.
If the load is too heavy, stall prevention is activated, the output frequency is stopped, and the acceleration time is lengthened.
Lengthen the set acceleration time (n16). Reduce the load.
The frequency reference is too low.
The input frequency reference is lower than the setting for the min.output frequency (n14).
Input a frequency reference greater than the min. output frequency (n14).
96
Trouble Cause Corrective Actions
The motor speed is unstable. The motor speed fluctuates when operating with a light load.
The carrier frequency is too high.
If operating the motor with a light load, a high carrier frequency may cause the motor speed to fluctuate.
Decrease the carrier frequency (n46).
The V/f set value is too high for a low speed operation.
Because the set value for the V/f is too high, over-excitation occurs at low speeds.
Set the V/f (n09 to n15) according to the load characteristics.
The maximum frequency and base frequency were incorrectly adjusted.
Example: To operate a 60 Hz motor at 40 Hz or less, the maximum frequency and base frequency are set to 40 Hz.
Set the maximum frequency and the base frequency according to the motor specifications.
The inverter is used for an operation at 1.5 Hz or less.
Do not use the VS mini for an operation that runs at 1.5 Hz or less. For an operation at 1.5 Hz or less, use a different inverter model.
The analog reference input is unstable and has noise interference.
Increase the set value for the filter time constant.
The load is too heavy.
If the load is too heavy, stall prevention is activated, the output frequency is stopped, and the acceleration time is lengthened.
Reduce the load.
When the maximum frequency was changed, the maximum voltage frequency was also changed.
To increase the speed of a general-purpose motor, only change the maximum frequency.
The V/f set value is too low. Set the V/f (n09 to n15)
according to the load characteristics.
The stall prevention level during running is too low.
Because the stall prevention level during running (n57) is too low, the output current reaches the set level and the speed drops.
Check if the stall prevention level during running (n57) is set to an appropriate value.

Trouble Cause Corrective Actions
The digital operator does not turn ON.
The power is not being supplied.
The breaker or other component on the power input side is not turned ON, and the power is being not supplied.
