Precautions for Use

Driving a 460V general-purpose motor
Torque characteristics and temperature rise
In running general­purpose motors
Vibration
Noise
When driving a 460V 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.
In running special motors
High-speed motors
Explosion-proof motors
Submersible motors and pumps
Brake motors
If the set 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 overload protection.
For motors equipped with parallel-connected brakes, their braking power must be supplied from the primary circuit. If the brake power is connected to the inverter's power output circuit by mistake, the brake will not work.
Do not use inverters for driving motors equipped with series-connected brakes.
iii
Geared motors
CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
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.
In running special motors
Environ­mental conditions
Combina­tion with peripheral devices
Synchronous motors
Single-phase motors
Installation location
Installing an MCCB or RCD/GFCI
Installing an MC in the secondary circuit
Installing an MC in the primary circuit
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 a single-phase inverter provides three-phase output, so use a
three-phase motor.
Use the inverter within the ambient temperature range from -10 to +50qC (+14 to 122qF ).
The heat sink and braking resistor of the inverter may become 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 8, Section 8.5 "Operating Environment and Storage Environment."
Install a recommended molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) or residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)/ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) (with overcurrent protection) in the 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 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 RUN/STOP key.
Protecting the motor
The electronic thermal overload protection 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).
iv
Discontinuance of
CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
power-factor correcting capacitor
Do not mount power-factor correcting capacitors in the inverter’s primary circuit. (Use the DC reactor to improve the inverter power factor.) Do not use power-factor correcting capacitors in the inverter output circuit. An overcurrent trip will occur, disabling motor operation.
Combina­tion with peripheral devices
Wiring
Discontinuance of surge killer
Reducing noise
Measures against surge currents
Megger test
Control circuit wiring length
Wiring length between inverter and motor
Wiring size
Wiring type
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.
If an overvoltage trip occurs while the inverter is stopped or operated under a light load, it is assumed that the surge current is generated by open/close of the phase-advancing capacitor in the power system.
* Connect a DC reactor to the inverter.
When checking the insulation resistance of the inverter, use a 500 V megger and follow the instructions contained in the FRENIC-Mini Instruction Manual, Chapter 7, Section 7.4 "Insulation Test."
When using remote control, limit the wiring length between the inverter and operator box to 65.6 ft (20 m) or less and use twisted pair or shielded cable.
If long wiring is used between the inverter and the motor, the inverter will overheat or trip as a result of overcurrent (high-frequency current flowing into the stray capacitance) in the wires connected to the phases. Ensure that the wiring is shorter than 164 ft (50 m). If this length must be exceeded, lower the carrier frequency or mount an output circuit filter (OFL).
Select wires with a sufficient capacity by referring to the current value or recommended wire size.
Do not use one multicore cable in order to connect several inverters with motors.
Selecting inverter capacity
Transpor­tation and storage
Grounding Securely ground the inverter using the grounding terminal.
Select an inverter according to the applicable motor ratings listed in the
Driving general-purpose motor
Driving special motors
When transporting or storing inverters, follow the procedures and select locations that meet the environmental conditions listed in Chapter 1, Section 1.3 "Transportation" and Section 1.4 "Storage Environment."
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

1.1 Features

CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
Optimum performance for traversing conveyors
• High starting torque, at 150% or more
Equipped with Fuji's original simplified torque-vector control system and the automatic torque boost function, these inverters ensure consistent and powerful operation (when automatic torque boost and slip compensation control are ON and start frequency is set at 5 Hz or more).
1.1 Features
Chap. 1 INTRODUCTION TO FRENIC-Mini
Figure 1.1 Torque Characteristics Data
(Automatic torque boost: ON)
Figure 1.2 Example of Output Torque Characteristics
• Braking resistor connectable to the inverter
FRENIC-Mini series of inverters features a built-in braking transistor (for inverters of 1/2 HP or larger), which makes it possible for an optional braking resistor to be connected to increase the regenerative braking ability for conveyance and transportation machinery that requires strong braking power. For inverters of 2 HP or larger, it is also possible to select a model that incorporates a built-in braking resistor.
Refer to Chapter 8, Section 8.2.2 "Braking resistor built-in type" for details.
• Trip-free operation
The remarkably improved current limiting function (stall prevention) ensures trip-free operation even for impact loads.
Figure 1.3 Example of Response for Impact Load Torque
• Stable operation even for a step load
The slip compensation function ensures stable operation even when the motor load fluctuates (step load).
Figure 1.4 Example of Response for Step Load Torque (Refer to the note in Figure 1.2 for the test configuration.)

• Reduced motor instability at low speed
Fuji's unique control method improves voltage control performance and reduces motor instability at low speed to about a half or under (at 1 Hz) compared with that of conventional inverters.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.7 "Drive Command Controller" for details.
Figure 1.5 Example of Instability Characteristics
Default functions for fans and pumps
• Automatic energy-saving function provided as standard
To minimize the total loss (motor loss plus inverter loss), rather than just the motor loss as in the predecessor models, FRENIC-Mini saves even more power when used with fans or pumps.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.7 "Drive Command Controller" for details.
* Energy savings vary depending on the motor characteristics.
Figure 1.6 Example of Energy Savings
• PID control function
Permits motor operation while controlling temperature, pressure, or flow rate without using an external device such as a temperature regulator.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.8 "PID Frequency Command Generator" for details.
• Cooling fan ON/OFF control function
The inverter's cooling fan can be turned off while the fan or pump is stopped for noise reduction and energy savings.
The ideal functions to serve a multiplicity of needs for small-capacity inverters
• Compatible with a wide range of frequency settings
You can select the optimum frequency setting method that matches your machine or equipment via the keypad ( speed settings (0 to 7 steps) or via RS-485 communications. (Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.2 "Drive Frequency Command Generator" and Chapter 9, Section 9.2.1 "F codes" for details.)

• A transistor output is provided
This enables an overload early warning, lifetime forecast or other information signals to be output during operation.
Refer to function code E20 in Chapter 9, Section 9.2.2 "E codes (Extension terminal functions)."
• High output frequency - up to 400 Hz
The inverter can be used with equipment such as centrifugal separators that require a high motor speed. In this case, you need to check whether the machine operation in combination with the motor is compatible or not.
• Two points can be set for a non-linear V/f pattern.
The addition of an extra point (total: 2 points) for the non-linear V/f pattern, which can be set as desired, improves the FRENIC-Mini's drive capability, because the V/f pattern can be adjusted to match a wider application area.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.7 "Drive Command Controller" for details.

1.2 Control System

This section gives you a general overview of inverter control systems and features specific to the FRENIC-Mini series of inverters.
As shown in Figure 1.8, single- or three-phase commercial power is converted to DC power in the converter section, which is then used to charge the capacitor on the DC link bus. According to control commands or signals generated in the control logic, the inverter modulates the electricity charged in the capacitor to PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) format and feeds the output to the motor. The modulation frequency is called "carrier frequency." As shown in Figure 1.7, the voltage waveform of the modulated power source produces pulse train with positive and negative polarity synchronized with the inverter's output command frequency. The inverter feeds the produced output as drive power with sinusoidal current waveform like that of ordinary commercial power lines.
PWM voltage waveform Current waveform
Figure 1.7 Output Voltage and Current Waveform of the Inverter
For the set frequency given in the control logic, the accelerator/decelerator processor calculates the acceleration/deceleration rate required by run/stop control of the motor and transfers the calculated results to the 3-phase voltage command processor directly or via the V/f pattern generator.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.7 "Drive Command Controller" for details.
The FRENIC-Mini series features a simplified magnetic flux estimator which is added in the V/f pattern processing section. This feature automatically controls the voltage level applied to the motor according to the motor load so as to make the motor generate more stable and higher torque even during low speed operation. This "Simplified Torque-Vector Control" is unique to Fuji inverters.
The control logic section, which is the very brain of the inverter, allows you to customize the inverter's driving patterns using the function code settings.
Refer to Chapter 4 "BLOCK DIAGRAMS FOR CONTROL LOGIC" for details.

3.1 Overview of Operation Modes
FRENIC-Mini features the following three operation modes:
Running mode : This mode allows you to enter run/stop commands in regular operation. You
may also monitor the running status in realtime.
Programming mode : This mode allows you to set function code data and check a variety of
information relating to the inverter status and maintenance.
Alarm mode : If an alarm occurs, the inverter automatically enters this Alarm mode in which
the corresponding alarm code* and its related information may be displayed on the LED monitor.
* Alarm code: Shows the error factor that has activated the protective function. For details,
refer to Chapter 8, Section 8.8 "Details of Protective Functions."
Figure 3.1 shows the status transition of the inverter between these three operation modes. If the inverter is turned ON, it automatically enters Running mode, making it possible to start or stop the motor.
To make the transition between those operation modes, you need to press the specified keys as shown below, except at the occurrence of an alarm. If an alarm occurs in Running mode, the inverter will automatically switch to Alarm mode.

Chap. 3 OPERATION USING THE KEYPAD
By using the potentiometer and and PID process commands. It is also possible to set up the set frequency as frequency, load shaft speed, line speed, and constant feeding rate time by setting function code E48.
Setting up the set frequency with the potentiometer on the keypad (factory default)
If you set function code F01 to "4: Potentiometer on the keypad" (factory default) and select frequency setting-1 with function codes E01 through E03 (Hz2/Hz1 = OFF), then the potentiometer becomes enabled to set up the set frequency. Setting function code C30 to "4: Potentiometer on the keypad" and selecting frequency setting-2 (Hz2/Hz1 = ON) also produce the same effect.
Setting up the set frequency with
If you set function code F01 to "0: Keypad operation" and select frequency setting-1, then become enabled to set up the set frequency in Running mode. In any other operation modes, those keys remain disabled.
Pressing again makes it possible to change the set frequency. The new setting will be saved internally. Even if the inverter is switched to any other frequency entry method and then returned to the keypad entry method, the setting will be retained.
Further, even turning OFF the inverter will automatically save the setting into the non-volatile memory. At the next time when the inverter is turned ON, the setting will become the default frequency.
If you set function code F01 to "0: Keypad operation" but do not select frequency setting-1, then keys cannot be used for setting up the set frequency. Pressing those keys will just display the currently selected set frequency.

Make setting under PID control
To enable PID control, you need to set function code J01 to 1 or 2.
In the PID control mode, the items that can be set or checked with
/
keys are different from those under normal 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 (Set frequency) with
/
keys; if it is set to any other, you may access PID process commands with those keys.
Refer to 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
Set function code E60 to "3: PID process command 1" and J02 to "1: PID process command 1." After that, selecting PID control remote process command enables you to set the PID process command using the built-in potentiometer.
Setting the PID process command with
/ keys
Set function code J02 to "0: Keypad operation" and set the LED monitor to the setting other than the speed monitor (E43 = 0) in Running mode. This makes it possible to set the PID process command using
/ keys. This setting is possible only in Running mode.
Pressing monitor. Pressing
keys displays the PID process command with the lowest digit blinking on the LED
/
/ keys again makes it possible to change the PID process command. Once the PID process command is modified, it will be saved internally. Even if the inverter is switched to any other PID process command entry method and then returned to the keypad entry method, the setting will be retained.
Further, even turning OFF the inverter will automatically save the setting into the non-volatile memory. At the next time when the inverter is turned ON, the setting will become the default PID process command.
Even if the PID process command is selected ((SS4) = ON) in the multistep frequency, it is still possible to set the process command using the keypad.
When function code J02 has been set to any value except 0, pressing
/ keys displays the PID
process command currently selected (setting is not possible).
When the PID process command is displayed, the decimal point next to the lowest digit on the LED display blinks to discriminate it from the frequency setting.

The I/O signal status of control circuit terminals may be displayed with ON/OFF of the LED segment or in hexadecimal display.
Display I/O signal status with ON/OFF of the LED segment
As shown in Table 3.10 and the figure below, segments "a" to "e" on LED1 light when the digital input terminals ([FWD], [REV], [X1], [X2], and [X3]) are short-circuited (ON) with the terminal [CM] and do not light when they are opened (OFF). Segment "a" on LED3 lights when the circuit between output terminal [Y1] and terminal [Y1E] is closed (ON) and does not light when the circuit is open (OFF). LED4 is for terminals [30A], [30B], [30C]. Segment "a" on LED4 lights when the circuit between terminals [30C] and [30A] are short-circuited (ON) and does not light when they are opened.

Displaying I/O signal status in hexadecimal format
Each I/O terminal is assigned to bit 15 through bit 0 as listed in Table 3.11. An unassigned bit is interpreted as "0." Allocated bit data is displayed on the LED monitor in 4-digit hexadecimals ("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 value "1" is set for each bit when the assigned input terminal is short-circuited (ON) with terminal [CM]. The value "0" when it opens (OFF). For example, when [FWD] and [X1] are ON and all others are OFF, the display on LED4 to LED1 would be 0005.
Bit 0 is assigned to digital output terminal [Y1]. The value "1" is set when the terminal is short-circuited with [Y1E], and the value "0" is set when it opens. The status of the mechanical relay contact output terminal [30A], [30B] and [30C] are assigned to bit 8. The value "1" is set when the circuit between output terminals [30A] and [30C] is closed and the value "0" when the circuit between [30B] and [30C] is closed. For example, if [Y1] is ON and the circuit between [30A] and [30C] are short-circuited with each other, then the display for LED4 to LED1 would be 0101.
How the hexadecimal display is configured for the terminals to which bits 0 to 15 are assigned and the 7-segment LED is shown below.

4.1 Symbols Used in the Block Diagrams and their Meanings

FRENIC-Mini inverters are equipped with a number of function codes to match a variety of motor operations required in your system. Refer to Chapter 9 "FUNCTION CODES" for details of the function codes.
The function codes have functional relationship with each other. Several special function codes also work with execution priority with each other depending upon their data settings.
This chapter contains the main block diagrams for control logic in the inverter and describes the relationship between the inverter's logic and function codes. It is important to fully understand this relationship and to set the function code data correctly.
The block diagrams contained in the chapter show only function codes having mutual relation. For the function codes that work stand-alone and for details of individual function codes, refer to Chapter 9 "FUNCTION CODES."
4.1 Symbols Used in the Block Diagrams and their Meanings

Figure 4.1 shows the processes that generate the final drive frequency command from the frequency settings given by various means and those switched/modified by function codes. If PID process control takes effect (J01=1 or 2), the drive frequency generation will differ from that shown in this diagram. (Refer to Section 4.8 "PID Frequency Command Generator.")
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- Frequency settings using the
/ key on the keypad may take a different format by means of the data
setting for function code E48. Refer to function code E48 in Chapter 9 "FUNCTION CODES" for details.
- [C1] input as a frequency settings signal will always be interpreted as "0" when the current input signal
terminal [C1] is specified for the thermistor (H26 = 1).
- Settings for both gain and bias will take effect concurrently only for frequency setting 1 (F01). For frequency
setting 2 (C30) and auxiliary frequency settings 1 and 2 (E60 to E62), only the gain will take effect.
- Gain for the built-in potentiometer cannot be changed by any function code or other means.
- Switching between normal and inverse operation is only effective for frequency setting from the analog input
signal (terminal [12], [C1] or built-in potentiometer). Frequency settings from the
/
key are only valid
for normal operation.
- The command formats for frequency settings by S01 and S05 for the communications link facility take a
different form, as follows:
- S01: the setting range is –32768 to +32767, where the maximum output frequency is obtained at
r20000.
- S05: the setting range is 0.00 to 655.35 Hz in 0.01 Hz step, or 0.1 Hz step for over 600 Hz.
- Priority level for setting for S01 is higher than that for S05. If a value other than 0 is set for S01, then the data set to S01 will take effect. If S01 = 0, then the setting for S05 will take effect.
- Refer to the RS-485 Communication User's Manual for details.

The drive command generator shown in Figure 4.2 produces final drive commands (FWD: Drive the motor in the forward direction) and (REV: Drive the motor in reverse direction) from the run commands that are given by various means and modified/switched by function codes.
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- For the run command given by the /
key, the generator holds the command ON upon depression of the
key and releases it upon depression of the key except during jogging operation.
- The hold command (HLD) holds the run forward/reverse commands (FWD)/(REV) until it is turned OFF. This allows you to run the inverter in "3-Wire Operation." Refer to the function code E01 in Chapter 9 "FUNCTION CODES" for details.
If you do not assign a hold command (HLD) to any digital input terminals, then the "2-Wire Operation" using
the (FWD) and (REV) command will be active.
- Setting 0 (zero) for function code F02 allows you to operate the inverter using the
/
key on the built-in keypad for the run command, while the (FWD) and (REV) commands determine direction of motor rotation. The logic shown in the block diagram shows you that if the run command from the
key and either the (FWD) or (REV) command are given, then the internal run command <FWD> or <REV> decoded internally by the logic turns ON.
- S06 (2-byte data for bit 15 through bit 0 can be manipulated), the operation command by the communications link, includes:
- Bit 0: assigned to (FWD)
- Bit 1: assigned to (REV)
- Bits 13 and 14: programmable bits equivalent to the terminal inputs [FWD] and [REV]
- In the block diagram, all of these are noted as operation commands. The data setting for function code E98 to specify the terminal signal property for [FWD] and E99 for [REV] determine which bit value should be selected as the run command. If bits 13 and 14 have the same setting to specify the property for (FWD) or (REV), the output of bit 13-14 processor logic will follow the truth table listed in Figure 4.2.
- If either one of bits 13 and 14 is ON (1 as logic value), the OR logic will make the link command (LE) turn ON.
- If both run commands (FWD) and (REV) come ON concurrently, the logic forces the internal run commands <FWD> and <REV> to immediately turn OFF.
- If you set 1 or 3 to function code H96 (STOP key priority/Start Check) to make the
key priority effective,
then depressing the key forces the internal run commands <FWD> and <REV> to immediately turn OFF.
- If you have enabled operation via the timer, inputting any run command starts the timer. The internal run command <FWD> or <REV> and hold command (HLD) triggered by keypad will be automatically turned OFF after the time preset in the timer has elapsed.
Chap. 4 BLOCK DIAGRAMS FOR CONTROL LOGIC
- If the set frequency is lower than the start frequency (F23) or the stop frequency (F25), the internal run commands will remain OFF.

CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
Programmable digital input terminals [X1], [X2], [X3], [FWD] and [REV] can be assigned to internal terminal commands such as (FWD) or (REV) decoded by data settings of related function codes as shown in the block diagrams in Figures 4.3 (a) through 4.3 (d). In the decoders, negative logic input signals are also applicable if you set data of 1000s to the function code.
The contents of the block diagram are divided into five groups, depending on whether inputs are assigned for the same internal terminal commands respectively or the commands issued from the communications facility (linked operation) specify the internal commands. Each of the diagrams shown in Figure 4.3 has following role.
- Figure 4.3 (a) The terminal command decoder (general) shows the decoding process of the internal
commands functioning with the negative logic inputs. This is switchable with inputs from the communications facility (for example, link operation commands received through RS-485 communications).
- Figure 4.3 (b) The terminal command decoder (terminal signal inputs) shows the process to decode internal
terminal commands dedicated to the control signal input applied to the inverter's terminal block. These commands cannot be changed via the communications facility (link operation command).
- Figure 4.3 (c) The terminal command decoder (terminal signal input excluding negative logic) shows
process to produce (FWD) and (REV) commands. In this process, settings via the communications facility do not take effect. In the next process of the drive command generator, however, they may take effect. (Refer to the block diagram in Section 4.3, "Drive Command Generator.") To keep the inverter operation safe, any negative logic input for the (FWD) and (REV) commands cannot be applied.
- Figure 4.3 (d) The upper part of the terminal command decoder (ORing with link commands/ignoring link
commands) shows the process to produce commands by ORing signals issued from the communications facility and the control signal input terminal block (Logical Oring. If any of input signals is ON, then the command becomes ON.).
- Figure 4.3 (d) The lower part of the terminal command decoder (ORing with link commands/ignoring link
commands) shows the process to produce commands by forcing the inverter to ignore signals issued from the communications facility even if link operation ((LE): link operation command) has been turned ON.

The block diagram shown in Figure 4.4 shows you the processes to select the internal logic signals for feeding to two digital output signals [Y1] and [30A/B/C]. The output terminals [Y1] (a transistor switch) and [30A/B/C] (mechanical relay contacts) are programmable. You can assign various functions to these terminals using function codes E20 and E27. Setting data of 1000s allows you to use these terminals for the negative logic system.

The block diagram shown in Figure 4.5 shows the process for selecting and processing the analog signals to be outputted to the analog output terminal [FMA]. Function code F31 determines the signals to be outputted to [FMA]. Function code F30 scales the output signal to a level suitable for the meters to be connected to the [FMA] terminal.
The output voltage range is 0 to 10 VDC and the maximum allowable load current is 2 mA. This is capable of driving two analog voltmeters with a common rating.
The test analog output is full-scale voltage output that adjusts the scale of the connected meter.

The simplified block diagram shown in Figure 4.6 explains the process in which the inverter drives the motor according to the internal run command <FWD>/<REV> from the frequency generator, or the PID frequency command from the PID controller, and the run commands.
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- The logic shown in the left part of the block diagram processes the drive frequency command so as to invert
(u(-1)) the command for reverse rotation of the motor or to replace it with 0 (zero) for stopping the motor.
- The accelerator/decelerator processor determines the output frequency of the inverter by referring to the set
data of related function codes. If the output frequency exceeds the peak frequency given by function code F15, the controller limits the output frequency at the peak.
- Acceleration/deceleration time is selectable from acceleration/deceleration time 1 or 2, or
acceleration/deceleration time for jogging operation. The suppression of the regenerative braking feature may multiply the commanded acceleration/deceleration time by 3. Refer to role of function code H69 in the block diagram.
- If the overload prevention control feature is active, then the logic automatically switches the output frequency
to one of overload suppression control and controls the inverter using the switched frequency.
However, if the current limit control is active (F43 z 30, H12 = 1), the overload prevention control
automatically becomes inactive.
- If the current limit control is active, then the logic automatically switches the output frequency to one of
current limit control and controls inverter using the switched frequency.
- The slip compensation facility adds frequency components calculated from the load based on the preset rated
slip frequency inside the inverter to the frequency currently commanded. The logic adjusts the error between the rated slip frequency of the motor currently under load and the preset frequency according to the set data of function code P09 that controls slip compensation gain for the motor.
- The voltage processor determines the output voltage of the inverter. The processor adjusts the output voltage
to control the motor output torque.
- If DC braking control is active, the logic switches the voltage and frequency control components to ones
determined by the DC braking block to feed the proper power to the motor for DC braking.

The block diagram shown in Figure 4.7 shows the PID frequency command generator that becomes active when the PID control is enabled (J01= 1 or 2). The logic shown generates the final frequency command according to the PID process command given by various means of setting and feedback, or frequency settings as a speed command given manually, and various means of switching.
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- Switching of data settings for frequency 2 (C30), auxiliary frequencies 1 and 2 (E60 to E62) as manual speed
commands will be disabled.
- For multistep frequency settings, settings 1 to 3 are exclusively applicable to the manual PID speed command.
- For selecting analog input (terminal [12], [C1], or built-in POT) as the PID process command, you need to set
proper data for function codes E60 to E62 and J02.
- For the multistep frequency, setting data 4 (C08) is exclusively applicable to PID process command.
- To switch the operation between normal and inverse, the logic inverses polarity of deviation between the PID
command and its feedback (turning (INV) command ON/OFF, or setting J01 = 1 or 2).

5.1 Overview on RS-485 Communication
Mounting an optional RS-485 communications card on the FRENIC-Mini series of inverters enables the following:
Operation from a remote keypad
A remote keypad can be connected to the RS-485 communications card using the extension cable. You may install the remote keypad to the easy-to-access front of the control panel. The maximum length of the extension cable is 66 ft (20 m).
Operation by FRENIC Loader
The Windows-based PC can be connected to the RS-485 communications card. Through the RS-485 communications facility, you may run FRENIC Loader in the PC to edit the function code data and monitor the running status information of the inverter.
Operation from the host equipment
Host equipment such as a PLC or personal computer can be connected to the RS-485 communications card. It may act as a master device that controls the inverter as a slave device.
Protocols for managing a network including inverters include the Modbus RTU protocol (compliant to the protocol established by Modicon Inc.) that is widely used in FA markets and the Fuji general-purpose protocol that supports the FRENIC-Mini and conventional series of inverters.
Chap. 5 RUNNING THROUGH RS-485 COMMUNICATION (OPTION)
For the remote keypad, the inverter uses the dedicated protocol that automatically switches the operation source to the remote keypad, so no function code setting is required.
For FRENIC loader, however, you need to set up function code H30 for some communications conditions although the dedicated protocol is used.

CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
Equipment such as personal computers is not equipped with an RS-485 communications port but with an RS-232C port, so an RS-485/RS-232C converter is required to connect them to the RS-485 communications card. It is recommended that insulated converters such as RS-485/RS-485 converters (KS-485PTI by System Sacomm, Inc.) be used for eliminating electric noise.
Multi-drop branch connector The RS-485 communications port of the communications card uses an RJ-45 connector. For multi-drop connection of inverters, multi-drop branch connectors (MS8-BA-JJJ by SK Koki Co.) are required.
Cable For the connection of the remote keypad, use an 8-wire straight cable with an RJ-45 connector. (Remote keypad extension cable option: CB-5S)
For the connection of other equipment or connection of FRENIC-Mini inverters with each other, use a cable that has signal wires only. (EIA568-compliant 10BASE-T)
- No converter is required for connection of the remote keypad.
- To connect the FVR-E11S series of general-purpose inverters to the FRENIC-Mini series, take necessary measures for the difference of the pin assignment between FVR-E11S and FRENIC-Mini series to avoid a short-circuited failure.

6.2 Selecting Wires and Crimp Terminals

CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
This section contains information needed to select wires for connecting the inverter to commercial power lines, motor or any of the optional/peripheral equipment. The level of electric noise issued from the inverter or received by the inverter from external sources may vary depending upon wiring and routing. To solve such noise-related problems, refer to Appendix A "Advantageous Use of Inverters (Notes on electrical noise)."
Select wires that satisfy the following requirements:
- Sufficient capacity to flow the rated average current (allowable current capacity).
- Protective device coordination with an overcurrent circuit breaker such as an MCCB in the overcurrent zone for overcurrent protection.
- Voltage loss due to the wire length is within the allowable range.
- Suitable for the type and size of terminals of the optional equipment to be used.
Recommended wires are listed below. Use these wires unless otherwise specified.
600V class of vinyl-insulated wires (IV wires)
Use this class of wire for the power circuits. This class of wire is hard to twist, so using it for the control signal circuits is not recommended. Maximum ambient temperature for this wire is 60qC (140qF).
600V heat-resistant PVC insulated wires or 600V polyethylene insulated wires (HIV wires)
As wires in this class are smaller in diameter and more flexible than IV wires and can be used at a higher ambient temperature 75qC (167qF), they can be used for both of the main power and control signal circuits. To use this class of wire for the control circuits, you need to correctly twist the wires and keep the wiring length for equipment being connected as short as possible.
600V cross-linked polyethylene-insulated wires (FSLC wires)
Use this class of wire mainly for power and grounding circuits. These wires are smaller in diameter and more flexible than those of the IV and HIV classes of wires, meaning that these wires can be used to save on space and increase operation efficiency of your power system, even in high temperature environments. The maximum allowable ambient temperature for this class of wires is 90qC (194qF). The (Boardlex) wire range available from Furukawa Electric Co., Ltd. satisfies these requirements.
Shielded-Twisted cables for internal wiring of electronic/electric equipment
Use this category of cables for the control circuits of the inverter so as to prevent the signal lines from being affected by noise from external sources, including the power input/output lines of the inverter themselves. Even if the signal lines are inside the power control cabinet, always use this category of cables when the length of wiring is longer than normal. Cables satisfying these requirements are the Furukawa's BEAMEX S shielded cables of the XEBV and XEWV ranges.

6.3 Peripheral Equipment
[ 1 ] Molded case circuit breaker (MCCB), ground-fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) and magnetic contactor (MC)
[ 1.1 ] Functional overview
MCCBs and GFCIs*
*With overcurrent protection
Molded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs) are designed to protect the power circuits between the power supply and inverter's main circuit terminals (L1/R, L2/S and L3/T for three phase, or L1/L and L2/N for single-phase power source) from overload or short-circuit, which in turn prevents secondary accidents caused by the inverter malfunctioning.
Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) function in the same way as MCCBs.
Built-in overcurrent/overload protective functions protect the inverter itself from failures related to its input/output lines.
MCs
An MC can be used at both the power input and output sides of the inverter. At each side, the MC works as described below. When inserted in the output circuit of the inverter, the MC can also switch the motor drive power source between the inverter output and commercial power lines.
At the power source side
Insert an MC in the power source side of the inverter in order to:
(1) Forcibly cut off the inverter from the power source (generally, commercial/factory power lines) with
the protective function built into the inverter, or with the external signal input.
(2) Stop the inverter operation in an emergency when the inverter cannot interpret the stop command
due to internal/external circuit failures.
(3) Cut off the inverter from the power source when the MCCB inserted in the power source side cannot
cut it off for maintenance or inspection purpose. For the purpose only, it is recommended that you use an MC capable of turning the MC ON/OFF manually.
When your system requires starting/stopping the motor(s) driven by the inverter with the MC, the frequency of the starting/stopping operation should be once or less per hour. The more frequent the operation, the shorter operation life of the MC and capacitor/s used in the DC link bus due to thermal fatigue caused by the frequent charging of the current flow. It is recommended that terminal commands (FWD), (REV) and (HLD) for 3-wire operation o the keypad be used for starting/stopping the motor.
At the output side
Insert an MC in the power output side of the inverter in order to:
Chap. 6 SELECTING PERIPHERAL EQUIPMENT
(1) Prevent externally turned-around current from being applied to the inverter power output terminals
(U, V, and W) unexpectedly. An MC should be used, for example, if a circuit that switches the motor driving power source between the inverter output and commercial power lines is connected to the inverter.
As application of the external current to the inverter's secondary (output) circuits may brea the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs), MCs should be used in the power control system circuits to switch the motor drive power source to the commercial power lines afte the motor has come to a complete stop. Also ensure that voltage is never mistakenly applied to the inverter output terminals due to unexpected timer operation, or similar.
(2) Drive more than one motor selectively by a single inverter.
(3) Selectively cut off the motor whose thermal overload relay or equivalent devices have been
activated.

Driving the motor using commercial power lines
CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
MCs can also be used to switch the power source of the motor driven by the inverter to a commercial power source.
Select the MC so as to satisfy the rated currents listed in Table 6.1, which are the most critical RMS currents for using the inverter. For switching the motor drive source between the inverter output and commercial power lines, use the MC of class AC3 specified by JIS C8325 in the commercial line side.
[ 1.2 ] Connection example and criteria for selection of circuit breakers
Figure 6.2 shows a connection example for MCCB or GFCI (with overcurrent protection) in the inverter input circuit. Table 6.5 lists the rated current for the MCCB and corresponding inverter models. Table 6.6 lists the applicable grades of GFCI sensitivity.
Insert an MCCB or GFCI (with overcurrent protection) recommended for each inverter for its input circuits. Do not use an MCCB or GFCI of a higher rating than that recommended.
Doing so could result in a fire.

- The above table lists the rated current of MCCBs and GFCIs to be used in the power control cabinet with an
internal temperature of lower than 50qC (120qF). The rated current is factored by a correction coefficient of
0.85 as the MCCBs' and GFCIs' original rated current is specified when using them in an ambient temperature of 40qC (104qF) or lower. Select an MCCB and/or GFCI suitable for the actual short-circuit breaking capacity needed for your power systems.
- For the selection of the MC type, it is assumed that the 600V HIV (allowable ambient temperature:
C (167qF)) wires for the power input/output of the inverter are used. If an MC type for another class
75
of wires is selected, the wire size suitable for the terminal size of both the inverter and the MC type should be taken into account.
- Use GFCIs with overcurrent protection.
- To protect your power systems from secondary accidents caused by the broken inverter, use an MCCB and/or GFCI with the rated current listed in the above table. Do not use an MCCB or GFCI with a rating higher than that listed.
Notes: 1) A box () in the above table replace S or E depending on enclosure.

- Values listed above were obtained using Fuji GFCI EG or SG series applied to the test setup.
- The rated current of applicable motor rating indicates values for Fuji standard motor (4 poles, 50 Hz and 230 V 3-phase).
- The leakage current is calculated based on grounding of the single wire for 230V ' type and the neutral wire for 460V Y type power lines.
- Values listed above are calculated based on the static capacitance to the earth when the 600V class of vinyl-insulated IV wires are used in a metal conduit laid directly on the earth.
- Wiring length is the total length of wiring between the inverter and motor. If more than one motor is to be connected to a single inverter, the wiring length should be the total length of wiring between the inverter and motors.

[ 1 ] Braking resistors
A braking resistor converts regenerative energy generated from deceleration of the motor and converts it to heat for consumption. Use of a braking resistor results in improved deceleration performance of the inverter.
Refer to Chapter 7, Section 7.2 "Selecting a Braking Resistor."
[ 1.1 ] Standard model
The standard model of a braking resistor integrates a facility that detects the temperature on the heat sink of the resistor and outputs a digital ON/OFF signal if the temperature exceeds the specified level (as an overheating warning signal). To ensure that the signal is recognized at one of the digital input terminals of the FRENIC-Mini, assign the external alarm (THR) to any of terminals [X1] to [X3], [FWD] and [REV]. Connect the assigned terminal to terminal [1] of the braking resistor. Upon detection of the warning signal (preset detection level: 150qC (302qF)), the inverter simultaneously transfers to Alarm mode, displays
J
alarm
on the LED monitor and shuts down its power output.

[ 2 ] DC reactors (DCRs)
CTi Automation - Phone: 800.894.0412 - Fax: 208.368.0415 - Web: www.ctiautomation.net - Email: info@ctiautomation.net
A DCR is mainly used for power supply normalization and for supplied power factor improvement (for reducing harmonic components).
For power supply normalization
- Use a DCR when the capacity of a power supply transformer exceeds 500 kVA and is 10 times or more the rated inverter capacity. In this case, the percentage-reactance of the power source decreases, and harmonic components and their peak levels increase. These factors may break rectifiers or capacitors in the converter section of inverter, or decrease the capacitance of the capacitor (which can shorten the inverter's service life).
- Also use a DCR when there are thyristor-driven loads or when phase-advancing capacitors are being turned ON/OFF.
- Use a DCR when the interphase voltage unbalance ratio of the inverter power source exceeds 2%.

For supplied power factor improvement (for suppressing harmonics)
Generally a capacitor is used to improve the power factor of the load, however, it cannot be used in a system that includes an inverter. Using a DCR increases the reactance of inverter's power source so as to decrease harmonic components on the power source lines and improve the power factor of inverter. Using a DCR improves the input power factor to approximately 95%.
x At the time of shipping, a short bar is connected across terminals P1 and P (+) on the
terminal block. Remove the jumper bar when connecting a DCR.
x If a DCR is not going to be used, do not remove the jumper bar.
