1.0 Overview:
This software adds full range DC injection, as well as a DC injection command as a multi-function input
selection. DC injection causes DC current to flow in the motor windings, which aligns the motor poles and
provides deceleration and/or holding torque.
A trim control feature for the frequency reference (similar to the GPD515/G5 function) is also included.
This allows for increasing or decreasing (trimming) of the frequency reference by a programmed amount
through a multi-function input contact closure.

Setting Description
28 DC Injection Command
29 Trim Control Increase
30 Trim Control Decrease
When n050 ~ n056 = 28, the corresponding input terminal (S1 ~ S7) is used for commanding DC
Injection.
When n050 ~ n056 = 29/30, the corresponding input terminals (S1 ~ S7) are used for the frequency
reference trim control increase/decrease function.

4.0 Description of Functionality:
4.1 Full Range DC Injection
When n005 = 2 and the run command is removed, the drive will Baseblock for the time in parameter n170
(Minimum Baseblock Time) and then apply DC injection. The DC injection time is based on n090 (DC
Injection Time at Stop) and output frequency as shown below. Although the minimum Baseblock time
can be set as low as 0.1 Sec, caution should be observed when setting this parameter to avoid
Overvoltage or Overcurrent faults. The acceptable minimum setting will vary based on the motor and
application.

4.2 DC Injection Multi-function Digital Input Command
• The DC Injection command will be active under the following conditions: the inverter is ready (i.e. not
in program mode or in a fault state), no run command is present, and the output frequency is less
than the Minimum Frequency (n016).
• The DC Injection Current Level is set by the standard parameter n089 (as a percentage of inverter
rated current).
• The DC Injection at Start and DC Injection at Stop parameters n090 and n091 have priority over the
external DC Injection command.
• Full range DC injection (n005 = 2) has priority over the external DC Injection command.
• The External Baseblock command has priority over the external DC Injection command.
• The RUN LED on the digital operator will be lit solid when the DC injection command is closed.

4.3 Frequency Reference Trim Control Function
When the trim control increase multi-function input is closed, the control trim level will be added to the
frequency reference. When the trim control decrease multi-function input is closed, the trim control level
will be subtracted from the frequency reference. The inverter must be in remote mode and the frequency
reference must be non-digital (n004 ≠ 1) for trim control to function. Also, trim control is disabled when
any of the multi-step speed reference inputs are closed. The trim control level is determined by the
frequency reference, n045 (Trim Control Level at Max Frequency), and n046 (Trim Control Level at Min
Frequency). See Figures 3.0 and 4.0 below.
