Thank you for choosing this Mitsubishi Inverter.
1. Electric Shock Prevention
2. Fire Prevention
3. Injury Prevention
4. Additional Instructions
Also the following points must be noted to prevent an accidental failure, injury,
electric shock, etc.
This Instruction Manual provides instructions for advanced use of the FR-A700 series inverters.
Incorrect handling might cause an unexpected fault. Before using the inverter, always read this Instruction Manual and the Instruction Manual
(basic) [IB-0600225ENG] packed with the product carefully to use the equipment to its optimum.
This section is specifically about safety matters
Do not attempt to install, operate, maintain or inspect the inverter
until you have read through Instruction Manual (Basic) and
appended documents carefully and can use the equipment
correctly. Do not use the inverter until you have a full knowledge
of the equipment, safety information and instructions. In this
Instruction Manual, the safety instruction levels are classified into
"WARNING" and "CAUTION".
Incorrect handling may cause hazardous
conditions, resulting in death or severe
injury.
Incorrect handling may cause hazardous
conditions, resulting in medium or slight
injury, or may cause only material damage.
The level may even lead to a serious consequence
according to conditions. Both instruction levels must be followed
because these are important to personal safety.
•While power is ON or when the inverter is running, do not open
the front cover. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.
•Do not run the inverter with the front cover or wiring cover
removed.
Otherwise you may access the exposed high-voltage terminals
or the charging part of the circuitry and get an electric shock.
•Even if power is off, do not remove the front cover except for
wiring or periodic inspection. You may accidentally touch the
charged inverter circuits and get an electric shock.
•Before wiring, inspection or switching EMC filter ON/OFF
connector, power must be switched OFF. To confirm that, LED
indication of the operation panel must be checked. (It must be
OFF.) Any person who is involved in wiring, inspection or
switching EMC filter ON/OFF connector shall wait for at least
10 minutes after the power supply has been switched OFF and
check that there are no residual voltage using a tester or the
like. The capacitor is charged with high voltage for some time
after power OFF, and it is dangerous.
•This inverter must be earthed (grounded). Earthing (grounding)
must conform to the requirements of national and local safety
regulations and electrical code (NEC section 250, IEC 536
class 1 and other applicable standards).
A neutral-point earthed (grounded) power supply for 400V
class inverter in compliance with EN standard must be used.
•Any person who is involved in wiring or inspection of this
equipment shall be fully competent to do the work.
•The inverter must be installed before wiring. Otherwise you
may get an electric shock or be injured.
•Setting dial and key operations must be performed with dry
hands to prevent an electric shock. Otherwise you may get an
electric shock.
•Do not subject the cables to scratches, excessive stress,
heavy loads or pinching. Otherwise you may get an electric
shock.
•Do not replace the cooling fan while power is on. It is
dangerous to replace the cooling fan while power is on.
•Do not touch the printed circuit board or handle the cables with
wet hands. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.
•When measuring the main circuit capacitor capacity (Pr. 259
Main circuit capacitor life measuring = "1"), the DC voltage is
applied to the motor for 1s at powering off. Never touch the
motor terminal, etc. right after powering off to prevent an
electric shock.
WARNING
CAUTION
CAUTION
WARNING
•Inverter must be installed on a nonflammable wall without
holes (so that nobody touches the inverter heatsink on the rear
side, etc.). Mounting it to or near flammable material can cause
a fire.
•If the inverter has become faulty, the inverter power must be
switched OFF. A continuous flow of large current could cause a
fire.
•When using a brake resistor, a sequence that will turn OFF
power when a fault signal is output must be configured.
Otherwise the brake resistor may overheat due to damage of
the brake transistor and possibly cause a fire.
•Do not connect a resistor directly to the DC terminals P/+ and
N/-. Doing so could cause a fire.
•The voltage applied to each terminal must be the ones
specified in the Instruction Manual. Otherwise burst, damage,
etc. may occur.
•The cables must be connected to the correct terminals.
Otherwise burst, damage, etc. may occur.
•Polarity must be correct. Otherwise burst, damage, etc. may
occur.
•While power is ON or for some time after power-OFF, do not
touch the inverter since the inverter will be extremely hot.
Doing so can cause burns.
(1) Transportation and installation
•The product must be transported in correct method that
corresponds to the weight. Failure to do so may lead to injuries.
•Do not stack the boxes containing inverters higher than the
number recommended.
•The product must be installed to the position where withstands
the weight of the product according to the information in the
Instruction Manual.
•Do not install or operate the inverter if it is damaged or has
parts missing. This can result in breakdowns.
•When carrying the inverter, do not hold it by the front cover or
setting dial; it may fall off or fail.
•Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the product.
•The inverter mounting orientation must be correct.
•Foreign conductive objects must be prevented from entering
the inverter. That includes screws and metal fragments or
other flammable substance such as oil.
•As the inverter is a precision instrument, do not drop or subject
it to impact.
•The inverter must be used under the following environment:
Otherwise the inverter may be damaged.
*1 Temperature applicable for a short time, e.g. in transit.
*2 2.9m/s2 or less for the 160K or higher.
CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION
Environment
Surrounding air
temperature -10°C to +50°C (non-freezing)
Ambient humidity 90% RH or less (non-condensing)
Storage temperature -20°C to +65°C *1
Atmosphere Indoors (free from corrosive gas, flammable
gas, oil mist, dust and dirt)

A-2
(2) Wiring
•Do not install a power factor correction capacitor, surge
suppressor or radio noise filter on the inverter output side.
These devices on the inverter output side may be overheated
or burn out.
•The connection orientation of the output cables U, V, W to the
motor affects the rotation direction of the motor.
(3) Test operation and adjustment
•Before starting operation, each parameter must be confirmed
and adjusted. A failure to do so may cause some machines to
make unexpected motions.
(4) Operation
•Any person must stay away from the equipment when the retry
function is set as it will restart suddenly after trip.
•Since pressing key may not stop output depending on
the function setting status, separate circuit and switch that
make an emergency stop (power OFF, mechanical brake
operation for emergency stop, etc.) must be provided.
•OFF status of the start signal must be confirmed before
resetting the inverter fault. Resetting inverter alarm with the
start signal ON restarts the motor suddenly.
•The inverter must be used for three-phase induction motors.
Connection of any other electrical equipment to the inverter
output may damage the equipment.
•Performing pre-excitation (LX signal and X13 signal) under
torque control (Real sensorless vector control) may start the
motor running at a low speed even when the start command
(STF or STR) is not input. The motor may also run at a low
speed when the speed limit value = 0 with a start command
input. It must be confirmed that the motor running will not
cause any safety problem before performing pre-excitation.
•Do not modify the equipment.
•Do not perform parts removal which is not instructed in this
manual. Doing so may lead to fault or damage of the inverter.
CAUTION
CAUTION
WARNING
•The electronic thermal relay function does not guarantee
protection of the motor from overheating. It is recommended to
install both an external thermal and PTC thermistor for
overheat protection.
•Do not use a magnetic contactor on the inverter input for
frequent starting/stopping of the inverter. Otherwise the life of
the inverter decreases.
•The effect of electromagnetic interference must be reduced by
using a noise filter or by other means. Otherwise nearby
electronic equipment may be affected.
•Appropriate measures must be taken to suppress harmonics.
Otherwise power supply harmonics from the inverter may heat/
damage the power factor correction capacitor and generator.
•When driving a 400V class motor by the inverter, the motor
must be an insulation-enhanced motor or measures must be
taken to suppress surge voltage. Surge voltage attributable to
the wiring constants may occur at the motor terminals,
deteriorating the insulation of the motor.
•When parameter clear or all parameter clear is performed, the
required parameters must be set again before starting
operations because all parameters return to the initial value.
•The inverter can be easily set for high-speed operation. Before
changing its setting, the performances of the motor and
machine must be fully examined.
•Stop status cannot be hold by the inverter's brake function. In
addition to the inverter's brake function, a holding device must
be installed to ensure safety.
•Before running an inverter which had been stored for a long
period, inspection and test operation must be performed.
•For prevention of damage due to static electricity, nearby metal
must be touched before touching this product to eliminate
static electricity from your body.
(5) Emergency stop
•A safety backup such as an emergency brake must be
provided to prevent hazardous condition to the machine and
equipment in case of inverter failure.
•When the breaker on the inverter input side trips, the wiring
must be checked for fault (short circuit), and internal parts of
the inverter for a damage, etc. The cause of the trip must be
identified and removed before turning ON the power of the
breaker.
•When any protective function is activated, appropriate
corrective action must be taken, and the inverter must be reset
before resuming operation.
(6) Maintenance, inspection and parts replacement
•Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance) test on the
control circuit of the inverter. It will cause a failure.
(7) Disposing of the inverter
•The inverter must be treated as industrial waste.
General instructions

Installation of the inverter and enclosure
design
1.4 Installation of the inverter and enclosure design
When an inverter enclosure is to be designed and manufactured, heat generated by contained equipment, etc., the
environment of an operating place, and others must be fully considered to determine the enclosure structure, size and
equipment layout. The inverter unit uses many semiconductor devices. To ensure higher reliability and long period of
operation, operate the inverter in the ambient environment that completely satisfies the equipment specifications.
1.4.1 Inverter installation environment
As the inverter installation environment should satisfy the standard specifications indicated in the following table,
operation in any place that does not meet these conditions not only deteriorates the performance and life of the
inverter, but also causes a failure. Refer to the following points and take adequate measures.
*2.9m/s
2 or less for the 160K or higher.
(1) Temperature
The permissible surrounding air temperature of the inverter is between -10°C and +50°C. Always operate the inverter
within this temperature range. Operation outside this range will considerably shorten the service lives of the
semiconductors, parts, capacitors and others. Take the following measures so that the surrounding air temperature of
the inverter falls within the specified range.
1) Measures against high temperature
• Use a forced ventilation system or similar cooling system. (Refer to page 10.)
• Install the enclosure in an air-conditioned electrical chamber.
• Block direct sunlight.
• Provide a shield or similar plate to avoid direct exposure to the radiated heat and wind of a heat source.
• Ventilate the area around the enclosure well.
2) Measures against low temperature
• Provide a space heater in the enclosure.
• Do not power OFF the inverter. (Keep the start signal of the inverter OFF.)
3) Sudden temperature changes
• Select an installation place where temperature does not change suddenly.
• Avoid installing the inverter near the air outlet of an air conditioner.
• If temperature changes are caused by opening/closing of a door, install the inverter away from the door.
(2) Humidity
Normally operate the inverter within the 45 to 90% range of the ambient humidity. Too high humidity will pose problems
of reduced insulation and metal corrosion. On the other hand, too low humidity may produce a spatial electrical
breakdown. The insulation distance specified in JEM1103 "Control Equipment Insulator" is defined as humidity 45 to
85%.
1) Measures against high humidity
• Make the enclosure enclosed, and provide it with a hygroscopic agent.
• Take dry air into the enclosure from outside.
• Provide a space heater in the enclosure.
2) Measures against low humidity
What is important in fitting or inspection of the unit in this status is to discharge your body (static electricity)
beforehand and keep your body from contact with the parts and patterns, besides blowing air of proper humidity into
the enclosure from outside.
3) Measures against condensation
Condensation may occur if frequent operation stops change the in-enclosure temperature suddenly or if the outside-
air temperature changes suddenly.
Condensation causes such faults as reduced insulation and corrosion.
• Take the measures against high humidity in 1).
• Do not power OFF the inverter. (Keep the start signal of the inverter OFF.)

Installation of the inverter and enclosure
design

OUTLINE
(3) Dust, dirt, oil mist
Dust and dirt will cause such faults as poor contact of contact points, reduced insulation or reduced cooling effect due
to moisture absorption of accumulated dust and dirt, and in-enclosure temperature rise due to clogged filter.
In the atmosphere where conductive powder floats, dust and dirt will cause such faults as malfunction, deteriorated
insulation and short circuit in a short time.
Since oil mist will cause similar conditions, it is necessary to take adequate measures.
Countermeasures
• Place in a totally enclosed enclosure.
Take measures if the in-enclosure temperature rises. (Refer to page 10.)
• Purge air.
Pump clean air from outside to make the in-enclosure pressure higher than the outside-air pressure.
(4) Corrosive gas, salt damage
If the inverter is exposed to corrosive gas or to salt near a beach, the printed board patterns and parts will corrode or
the relays and switches will result in poor contact.
In such places, take the measures given in Section (3).
(5) Explosive, flammable gases
As the inverter is non-explosion proof, it must be contained in an explosion proof enclosure.
In places where explosion may be caused by explosive gas, dust or dirt, an enclosure cannot be used unless it
structurally complies with the guidelines and has passed the specified tests. This makes the enclosure itself expensive
(including the test charges).
The best way is to avoid installation in such places and install the inverter in a non-hazardous place.
(6) Highland
Use the inverter at the altitude of within 1000m.
If it is used at a higher place, it is likely that thin air will reduce the cooling effect and low air pressure will deteriorate
dielectric strength.
(7) Vibration, impact
The vibration resistance of the inverter is up to 5.9m/s2 (2.9m/s2 for the 160K or higher) at 10 to 55Hz frequency and
1mm amplitude for the directions of X, Y, Z axes.
Vibration or impact, if less than the specified value, applied for a long time may make the mechanism loose or cause
poor contact to the connectors.
Especially when impact is imposed repeatedly, caution must be taken as the part pins are likely to break.
Countermeasures
• Provide the enclosure with rubber vibration isolators.
• Strengthen the structure to prevent the enclosure from resonance.
• Install the enclosure away from sources of vibration.

1.4.2 Cooling system types for inverter enclosure
From the enclosure that contains the inverter, the heat of the inverter and other equipment (transformers, lamps,
resistors, etc.) and the incoming heat such as direct sunlight must be dissipated to keep the in-enclosure temperature
lower than the permissible temperatures of the in-enclosure equipment including the inverter.
The cooling systems are classified as follows in terms of the cooling calculation method.
1) Cooling by natural heat dissipation from the enclosure surface (Totally enclosed type)
2) Cooling by heat sink (Aluminum fin, etc.)
3) Cooling by ventilation (Forced ventilation type, pipe ventilation type)
4) Cooling by heat exchanger or cooler (Heat pipe, cooler, etc.)

Mount the inverter on a wall as specified. Do not mount it horizontally or any other way.
(4) Above the inverter
Heat is blown up from inside the inverter by the small fan built in the unit. Any equipment placed above the inverter
should be heat resistant.
(5) Arrangement of multiple inverters
(6) Placement of ventilation fan and inverter
REMARKS
For replacing the cooling fan of the 160K or higher, 30cm of space is necessary in front of the inverter. Refer to page 431 for fan
replacement.
When multiple inverters are placed in the same
enclosure, generally arrange them horizontally as
shown in the right figure (a). When it is inevitable to
arrange them vertically to minimize space, take such
measures as to provide guides since heat from the
bottom inverters can increase the temperatures in the
top inverters, causing inverter failures.
When mounting multiple inverters, fully take caution
not to make the surrounding air temperature of the
inverter higher than the permissible value by providing
ventilation and increasing the enclosure size.
Arrangement of multiple inverters
Heat generated in the inverter is blown up from the bottom of
the unit as warm air by the cooling fan. When installing a
ventilation fan for that heat, determine the place of ventilation
fan installation after fully considering an air flow. (Air passes
through areas of low resistance. Make an airway and airflow
plates to expose the inverter to cool air.)

CAUTION
· To prevent a malfunction due to noise, keep the signal cables more than 10cm away from the power cables. Also separate the main circuit wire
of the input side and the output side.
· After wiring, wire offcuts must not be left in the inverter.Wire offcuts can cause an alarm, failure or malfunction. Always keep the inverter clean.
When drilling mounting holes in an enclosure etc., take care not to allow chips and other foreign matter to enter the inverter.
· Set the voltage/current input switch correctly. Different setting may cause a fault, failure or malfunction.

2.1.2 EMC filter
This inverter is equipped with a built-in EMC filter (capacitive filter) and common mode choke.
Effective for reduction of air-propagated noise on the input side of the inverter.
The EMC filter is factory-set to disable (OFF).
To enable it, fit the EMC filter ON/OFF connector to the ON position.
The input side common mode choke, built-in the 55K or lower inverter, is always valid regardless of on/off of the EMC
filter on/off connector.
The FR-A720-0.4K and 0.75K are not provided with the EMC filter ON/OFF connector. (The EMC filter is always valid.)
<How to disconnect the connector>
(1) Before removing a front cover, check to make sure that the indication of the inverter operation panel is OFF, wait
for at least 10 minutes after the power supply has been switched OFF, and check that there are no residual voltage
using a tester or the like. (Refer to page 6.)
(2) When disconnecting the connector, push the fixing tab and pull the connector straight without pulling the cable or
forcibly pulling the connector with the tab fixed. When installing the connector, also engage the fixing tab securely.
(If it is difficult to disconnect the connector, use a pair of long-nose pliers, etc.)
CAUTION
⋅Fit the connector to either ON or OFF.
⋅Enabling (turning on) the EMC filter increases leakage current. (Refer to page 53)
WARNING
While power is ON or when the inverter is running, do not open the front cover. Otherwise you may get an electric shock.

(2) Notes on earthing (grounding)
Always earth (ground) the motor and inverter.
1)Purpose of earthing (grounding)
Generally, an electrical apparatus has an earth (ground) terminal, which must be connected to the ground before
use.
An electrical circuit is usually insulated by a insulating material and encased. However, it is impossible to
manufacture an insulating material that can shut off a leakage current completely, and actually, a slight current flow
into the case. The purpose of earthing (grounding) the case of an electrical apparatus is to prevent operator from
getting an electric shock from this leakage current when touching it.
To avoid the influence of external noises, this earthing (grounding) is important to audio equipment, sensors,
computers and other apparatuses that handle low-level signals or operate very fast.
2)Earthing (grounding) methods and earthing (grounding) work
As described previously, earthing (grounding) is roughly classified into an electrical shock prevention type and a
noise-affected malfunction prevention type. Therefore, these two types should be discriminated clearly, and the
following work must be done to prevent the leakage current having the inverter's high frequency components from
entering the malfunction prevention type earthing (grounding):
(a) If possible, use (l) independent earthing (grounding) in figure below for the inverter. If independent earthing
(grounding) is not available, use (ll) common earthing (grounding) in the figure below where the inverter is
connected with the other equipment at an earthing (grounding) point.
The (lll) common earthing (grounding) as in the figure below, which inverter shares a common earth (ground)
cable with the other equipment, must be avoided.
A leakage current including many high frequency components flows in the earth (ground) cables of the
inverter and inverter-driven motor. Therefore, use the independent earthing (grounding) and separate the
earthing (grounding) cable of the inverter from equipment sensitive to EMI.
In a high building, it may be effective to use the EMI prevention type earthing (grounding) connecting to an
iron structure frame, and electric shock prevention type earthing (grounding) with the independent earthing
(grounding) together.
(b) This inverter must be earthed (grounded). Earthing (Grounding) must conform to the requirements of national
and local safety regulations and electrical codes. (NEC section 250, IEC 536 class 1 and other applicable
standards).
Use an neutral-point earthed (grounded) power supply for 400V class inverter in compliance with EN
standard.
(c) Use the thickest possible earth (ground) cable. The earth (ground) cable size should be no less than the size
indicated in the table on the previous page.
(d) The earthing (grounding) point should be as close as possible to the inverter, and the earth (ground) wire
length should be as short as possible.
(e) Run the earth (ground) cable as far away as possible from the I/O wiring of equipment sensitive to noises and
run them in parallel in the minimum distance.
To be compliant with the EU Directive (Low Voltage Directive), refer to the Instruction manual (basic).

(3) Total wiring length
The overall wiring length for connection of a single motor or multiple motors should be within the value in the table below.
(The wiring length should be 100m maximum for vector control.)
When driving a 400V class motor by the inverter, surge voltages attributable to the wiring constants may occur at the
motor terminals, deteriorating the insulation of the motor.
Refer to page 62 for measures against deteriorated insulation.
(4) Cable size of the control circuit power supply (terminal R1/L11, S1/L21)

· Especially for long-distance wiring, the inverter may be affected by a charging current caused by the stray capacitances of the

of the equipment connected on the inverter output side. If fast response current limit function malfunctions, disable this function.

2.3.2 Changing the control logic
The input signals are set to sink logic (SINK) when shipped from the factory.
To change the control logic, the jumper connector on the back of the control circuit terminal block must be moved to the
other position.
(The output signals may be used in either the sink or source logic independently of the jumper connector position.)
1) Loosen the two mounting screws in both ends of the control circuit terminal block. (These screws cannot be
removed.)
Pull down the terminal block from behind the control circuit terminals.
2) Change the jumper connector set to the sink logic (SINK) on the rear panel of the control circuit terminal block to
source logic (SOURCE).
3) Using care not to bend the pins of the inverter's control circuit connector, reinstall the control circuit terminal block
and fix it with the mounting screws.
CAUTION
1. Make sure that the control circuit connector is fitted correctly.
2. While power is ON, never disconnect the control circuit terminal block.

Control circuit specifications
2.3.3 Wiring of control circuit
(1) Control circuit terminal layout
(2) Common terminals of the control circuit (SD, 5, SE)
Terminals SD, 5, and SE are all common terminals (0V) for I/O signals and are isolated from each other. Do not earth
(ground) these terminals.
Avoid connecting the terminal SD and 5 and the terminal SE and 5.
Terminal SD is a common terminal for the contact input terminals (STF, STR, STOP, RH, RM, RL, JOG, RT, MRS, RES,
AU, CS) and frequency output signal (FM).
The open collector circuit is isolated from the internal control circuit by photocoupler.
Terminal 5 is a common terminal for frequency setting signal (terminal 2, 1 or 4) and analog output terminal AM.
It should be protected from external noise using a shielded or twisted cable.
Terminal SE is a common terminal for the open collector output terminal (RUN, SU, OL, IPF, FU).
The contact input circuit is isolated from the internal control circuit by photocoupler.
(3) Signal inputs by contactless switches
The contacted input terminals of the inverter (STF, STR, STOP, RH,
RM, RL, JOG, RT, MRS, RES, AU, CS) can be controlled using a
transistor instead of a contacted switch as shown on the right.

2.3.4 Wiring instructions
1) It is recommended to use the cables of 0.75mm2 gauge for
connection to the control circuit terminals.
If the cable gauge used is 1.25mm2 or more, the front cover may
be lifted when there are many cables running or the cables are
run improperly, resulting in an operation panel contact fault.
2) The wiring length should be 30m (200m for terminal FM)
maximum.
3) Use two or more parallel micro-signal contacts or twin contacts to prevent a contact faults when using contact
inputs since the control circuit input signals are micro-currents.
4) Use shielded or twisted cables for connection to the control circuit terminals and run them away from the main and
power circuits (including the 200V relay sequence circuit).
5) Do not apply a voltage to the contact input terminals (e.g. STF) of the control circuit.
6) Always apply a voltage to the fault output terminals (A, B, C) via a relay coil, lamp, etc.
zWiring of the control circuit of the 75K or higher
For wiring of the control circuit of the 75K or higher, separate away from wiring of the main circuit.

(4) Encoder Cable
• When using the dedicated encoder cable (FR-JCBL, FR-V5CBL, etc.) for the conventional motor, cut the crimpling
terminal of the encoder cable and strip its sheath to make its cables loose.
Also, protect the shielded cable of the shielded twisted pair cable to ensure that it will not make contact with the
conductive area.
Wire the stripped cable after twisting it to prevent it from becoming loose. In addition, do not solder it.

Connection of motor with encoder (vector control)
(6) Instructions for encoder cable wiring
• Use shielded twisted pair cables (0.2mm2 or larger) to connect the FR-A7AP
and position detector. Cables to terminals PG and SD should be connected in
parallel or be larger in size according to the cable length.
To protect the cables from noise, run them away from any source of noise (e.g.
the main circuit and power supply voltage).
* When differential line driver is set and a wiring length is 30m or more
The wiring length can be extended to 100m by slightly increasing the power by 5V (approx. 5.5V)
using six or more cables with gauge size of 0.2mm2 in parallel or a cable with gauge size of 1.25mm2
or more. Note that the voltage applied should be within power supply specifications of encoder.
• To reduce noise of the encoder cable, earth (ground) the encoder
shielded cable to the enclosure (as close as possible to the inverter)
with a P-clip or U-clip made of metal.

2.5 Connection of stand-alone option units
The inverter accepts a variety of stand-alone option units as required.
Incorrect connection will cause inverter damage or accident. Connect and operate the option unit carefully in
accordance with the corresponding option unit manual.
2.5.1 Connection of the dedicated external brake resistor (FR-ABR)
The built-in brake resistor is connected across terminals P/+ and PR. Fit the external dedicated brake resistor (FR-
ABR) when the built-in brake resistor does not have enough thermal capability for high-duty operation (22K or lower).
At this time, remove the jumper from across terminals PR and PX (7.5K or lower) and connect the dedicated brake
resistor (FR-ABR) across terminals P/+ and PR.
(For the locations of terminal P/+ and PR, refer to the terminal block layout (page 16).)
Removing jumpers across terminals PR and PX disables the built-in brake resistor (power is not supplied).
Note that the built-in brake resistor is not need to be removed from the inverter.
The lead wire of the built-in brake resistor is not need to be removed from the terminal.
Set parameters below.

2.5.5 Connection of the high power factor converter (FR-HC/MT-HC)
When connecting the high power factor converter (FR-HC/MT-HC) to suppress power harmonics, perform wiring
securely as shown below.
Incorrect connection will damage the high power factor converter and inverter.
(1) Connection with the FR-HC (55K or lower)
After making sure the wiring is correct, set the following parameters.
Pr. 19 Base frequency voltage (under V/F control) or Pr. 83 Rated motor voltage (under a control method other than V/F
control) = "rated motor voltage"
Pr. 30 Regenerative function selection = "2"
*1 When the power supply is 400V class, install a step-down transformer.
*2 For capacity 7.5K or lower, remove the jumper across terminals PR and PX.
CAUTION
⋅The wiring distance between the inverter, brake unit and resistor unit should be within 2m. If twisted wires are used, the
distance should be within 5m.
⋅If the transistors in the brake unit should become faulty, the resistor can be unusually hot, causing a fire. Therefore, install a
magnetic contactor on the inverter's power supply side to configure a circuit so that a current is shut off in case of fault.
⋅Do not remove a jumper across terminal P/+ and P1 except when connecting a DC reactor.
*1 Remove the jumpers across the inverter terminals R/L1 and R1/L11, S/L2 and S1/L21, and connect the control circuit power supply to the R1/L11
and S1/L21 terminals. Always keep the power input terminals R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 open. Incorrect connection will damage the inverter. (E.OPT
(option alarm) will occur. (Refer to page 412.))
*2 Do not insert the MCCB between terminals P/+ and N/- (P/+ and P/+, N/- and N/-). Opposite polarity of terminals N/-, P/+ will damage the inverter.
*3 Use Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to assign the terminals used for the X10 (X11) signal. (Refer to page 231)
For communication where the start command is sent only once, e.g. RS-485 communication operation, use the X11 signal when making setting to
hold the mode at occurrence of an instantaneous power failure. (Refer to page 209.)
*4 Always connect the terminal RDY (of FR-HC) to a terminal where the X10 or MRS signal is assigned in the inverter. Always connect the terminal
SE (of FR-HC) to the terminal SD (of the inverter). Not doing so may damage FR-HC.
CAUTION
⋅The voltage phases of terminals R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 and terminals R4, S4, T4 must be matched.
⋅Use sink logic (factory setting) when the FR-HC is connected. The FR-HC cannot be connected when source logic is selected.
⋅Do not connect a DC reactor to the inverter when FR-HC is connected.
⋅Do not remove the jumper across P/+ and P1.

Pr. 30 Regenerative function selection = "2"
*1 Remove the jumper across terminals R/L1 and R1/L11, S/L2 and S1/L21 of the inverter, and connect the control circuit
power supply to the R1/L11 and S1/L21 terminals. The power input terminals R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 must be open. Incorrect
connection will damage the inverter. (E.OPT (option alarm) will occur. (Refer to page 412.)
*2 Do not insert the MCCB between terminals P/+ and N/- (P and P/+, N and N/-). Opposite polarity of terminals N, P will
damage the inverter.
*3 Use Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to assign the terminals used for the X10 (X11) signal. (Refer to page
231.) For communication where the start command is sent only once, e.g. RS-485 communication operation, use the X11
signal when making setting to hold the mode at occurrence of an instantaneous power failure. (Refer to page 209.)
*4 Connect the power supply to terminals R1 and S1 of the MT-HC via an insulated transformer.
*5 Always connect the terminal RDY (of MT-HC) to a terminal where the X10 or MRS signal is assigned in the inverter. Always
connect the terminal SE (of MT-HC) to the terminal SD (of the inverter). Not doing so may damage MT-HC.
CAUTION
⋅The voltage phases of terminals R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 and terminals R4, S4, T4 must be matched.
⋅Use sink logic (factory setting) when the MT-HC is connected. The MT-HC cannot be connected when source logic is selected.
⋅When connecting the inverter to the MT-HC, do not connect the DC reactor provided to the inverter.

2.5.6 Connection of the power regeneration common converter (FR-CV)
When connecting the power regeneration common converter (FR-CV), make connection so that the inverter terminals
(P/+, N/-) and the terminal symbols of the power regeneration common converter (FR-CV) are the same (55K or lower).
After making sure that the wiring is correct, set "2" in Pr. 30 Regenerative function selection. (Refer to page 207.)
*1 Remove the jumpers across terminals R/L1 and R1/L11 and S/L2 and S1/L21 of the inverter, and connect the control
circuit power supply across terminals R1/L11 and S1/L21. Always keep the power input terminals R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 open.
Incorrect connection will damage the inverter. (E.OPT (option alarm) will occur. (Refer to page 412))
*2 Do not insert the MCCB between the terminals P/+ and N/- (between P/L+ and P/+, between N/L- and N/-). Opposite
polarity of terminals N/-, P/+ will damage the inverter.
*3 Assign the terminal for X10 signal using any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection). (Refer to page 231)
*4 Be sure to connect the power supply and terminals R/L11, S/L21, T/MC1.
Operating the inverter without connecting them will damage the power regeneration common converter.
*5 Always connect the terminal RDYB (of FR-CV) to a terminal where the X10 or MRS signal is assigned in the inverter.
Always connect the terminal SE (of FR-CV) to the terminal SD (of the inverter). Not doing so may damage FR-CV.

2.5.7 Connection of power regeneration converter (MT-RC)
When connecting a power regeneration converter (MT-RC), perform wiring securely as shown below. Incorrect
connection will damage the regeneration converter and inverter (75K or higher). After connecting securely, set "1" in Pr.
30 Regenerative function selection and "0" in Pr. 70 Special regenerative brake duty.
2.5.8 Connection of the power factor improving DC reactor (FR-HEL)
(1) Keep the surrounding air temperature within the permissible range (-10°C to +50°C). Keep enough clearance
around the reactor because it heats up. (Take 10cm or more clearance on top and bottom and 5cm or more on left
and right regardless of the installation direction.)
(2) When using the DC reactor (FR-HEL), connect it between terminals P1 and P/+.
For the 55K or lower, the jumper connected across terminals P1 and P/+ must be removed. Otherwise, the reactor
will not exhibit its performance.
For the 75K or higher, a DC reactor is supplied. Always install the reactor.
CAUTION
⋅When using the FR-A700 series together with the MT-RC, install a magnetic
contactor (MC) at the input side of the inverter so that power is supplied to the
inverter after 1s or more has elapsed after powering ON the MT-RC. When power is
supplied to the inverter prior to the MT-RC, the inverter and the MT-RC may be
damaged or the MCCB may trip or be damaged.
⋅Refer to the MT-RC manual for precautions for connecting the power coordination
reactor and others.
CAUTION
⋅The wiring distance should be within 5m.
⋅
The size of the cables used should be equal to or larger than that of the power supply cables (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3).

EMC and leakage currents
3.1 EMC and leakage currents
3.1.1 Leakage currents and countermeasures
Capacitances exist between the inverter I/O cables, other cables and earth and in the motor, through which a leakage
current flows. Since its value depends on the static capacitances, carrier frequency, etc., low acoustic noise operation
at the increased carrier frequency of the inverter will increase the leakage current. Therefore, take the following
measures. Select the earth leakage circuit breaker according to its rated sensitivity current, independently of the carrier
frequency setting.
(1) To-earth (ground) leakage currents
Leakage currents may flow not only into the inverter's own line but also into the other lines through the earth (ground)
cable, etc. These leakage currents may operate earth (ground) leakage circuit breakers and earth leakage relays
unnecessarily.
Suppression technique
⋅If the carrier frequency setting is high, decrease the Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection setting. Note that motor noise
increases.Selecting Pr. 240 Soft-PWM operation selection makes the sound inoffensive.
⋅By using earth leakage circuit breakers designed for harmonic and surge suppression in the inverter's own line and
other line, operation can be performed with the carrier frequency kept high (with low noise).
To-earth (ground) leakage currents
⋅Take caution as long wiring will increase the leakage current. Decreasing the carrier frequency of the inverter
reduces the leakage current.
⋅Increasing the motor capacity increases the leakage current. The leakage current of the 400V class is larger than
that of the 200V class.
(2) Line-to-line leakage currents
Harmonics of leakage currents flowing in static capacitances between the inverter output cables may operate the
external thermal relay unnecessarily. When the wiring length is long (50m or more) for the 400V class small-capacity
model (7.5K or lower), the external thermal relay is likely to operate unnecessarily because the ratio of the leakage
current to the rated motor current increases.
Line-to-line leakage current data example (200V class)
*The leakage currents of the 400V class are about twice as large.
Measures
⋅Use Pr. 9 Electronic thermal O/L relay.
⋅If the carrier frequency setting is high, decrease the Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection setting. Note that motor noise
increases. Selecting Pr. 240 Soft-PWM operation selection makes the sound inoffensive. To ensure that the motor is
protected against line-to-line leakage currents, it is recommended to use a temperature sensor to directly detect
motor temperature.
Installation and selection of moulded case circuit breaker
Install a moulded case circuit breaker (MCCB) on the power receiving side to protect the wiring of the inverter input
side. Select the MCCB according to the inverter input side power factor (which depends on the power supply voltage,
output frequency and load). Especially for a completely electromagnetic MCCB, one of a slightly large capacity must
be selected since its operation characteristic varies with harmonic currents. (Check it in the data of the corresponding
breaker.) As an earth (ground) leakage circuit breaker, use the Mitsubishi earth (ground) leakage breaker designed
for harmonics and surge suppression.

The leakage current is 1mA.
CAUTION
⋅Install the earth leakage breaker (ELB) on the input side of the inverter.
⋅In the connection earthed-neutral system, the sensitivity current is blunt against an earth (ground) fault in the inverter output
side. Earthing (Grounding) must conform to the requirements of national and local safety regulations and electrical codes. (NEC
section 250, IEC 536 class 1 and other applicable standards)
⋅When the breaker is installed on the output side of the inverter, it may be unnecessarily operated by harmonics even if the
effective value is less than the rating. In this case, do not install the breaker since the eddy current and hysteresis loss will
increase, leading to temperature rise.

EMC and leakage currents
3.1.2 EMC measures
Some electromagnetic noises enter the inverter to malfunction it and others are radiated by the inverter to malfunction
peripheral devices. Though the inverter is designed to have high immunity performance, it handles low-level signals, so
it requires the following basic techniques. Also, since the inverter chops outputs at high carrier frequency, that could
generate electromagnetic noises. If these electromagnetic noises cause peripheral devices to malfunction, EMI
measures should be taken to suppress noises. These techniques differ slightly depending on EMI paths.
1) Basic techniques
⋅Do not run the power cables (I/O cables) and signal cables of the inverter in parallel with each other and do not
bundle them.
⋅Use shielded twisted pair cables for the detector connection and control signal cables, and connect the sheathes
of the shield cables to terminal SD.
⋅Earth (Ground) the inverter, motor, etc. at one point.
2) Techniques to reduce electromagnetic noises that enter and malfunction the inverter (Immunity measures)
When devices that generate many electromagnetic noises (which use magnetic contactors, magnetic brakes, many
relays, for example) are installed near the inverter and the inverter may be malfunctioned by electromagnetic noises,
the following measures must be taken:
⋅Provide surge suppressors for devices that generate many electromagnetic noises to suppress electromagnetic
noises.
⋅Fit data line filters (page 55) to signal cables.
⋅Earth (Ground) the shields of the detector connection and control signal cables with cable clamp metal.
3) Techniques to reduce electromagnetic noises that are radiated by the inverter to malfunction peripheral devices (EMI
measures)
Inverter-generated noises are largely classified into those radiated by the cables connected to the inverter and
inverter main circuits (I/O), those electromagnetically and electrostatically induced to the signal cables of the
peripheral devices close to the main circuit power supply, and those transmitted through the power supply cables.

1) 2) 3)
When devices that handle low-level signals and are liable to malfunction due to electromagnetic noises,
e.g. instruments, receivers and sensors, are contained in the enclosure that contains the inverter or when
their signal cables are run near the inverter, the devices may be malfunctioned by air-propagated
electromagnetic noises. The following measures must be taken:
(1) Install easily affected devices as far away as possible from the inverter.
(2) Run easily affected signal cables as far away as possible from the inverter and its I/O cables.
(3) Do not run the signal cables and power cables (inverter I/O cables) in parallel with each other and do
not bundle them.
(4) Set the EMC filter ON/OFF connector of the inverter to the ON position. (Refer to page 15)
(5) Inserting a line noise filter into the output suppresses the radiation noise from the cables.
(6) Use shield cables as signal cables and power cables and run them in individual metal conduits to
produce further effects.
4) 5) 6)
When the signal cables are run in parallel with or bundled with the power cables, magnetic and static
induction noises may be propagated to the signal cables to malfunction the devices and the following
measures must be taken:
(1) Install easily affected devices as far away as possible from the inverter.
(2) Run easily affected signal cables as far away as possible from the I/O cables of the inverter.
(3) Do not run the signal cables and power cables (inverter I/O cables) in parallel with each other and do
not bundle them.
(4) Use shield cables as signal cables and power cables and run them in individual metal conduits to
produce further effects.
7)
When the power supplies of the peripheral devices are connected to the power supply of the inverter in
the same line, inverter-generated noises may flow back through the power supply cables to malfunction
the devices and the following measures must be taken:
(1) Set the EMC filter ON/OFF connector of the inverter to the ON position. (Refer to page 15)
(2) Install the line noise filter (FR-BLF, FR-BSF01) to the power cables (output cables) of the inverter.
8)
When a closed loop circuit is formed by connecting the peripheral device wiring to the inverter, leakage
currents may flow through the earth (ground) cable of the inverter to malfunction the device. In such a
case, disconnection of the earth (ground) cable of the device may cause the device to operate properly.

3.1.3 Power supply harmonics
The inverter may generate power supply harmonics from its converter circuit to affect the power generator, power
capacitor etc. Power supply harmonics are different from noise and leakage currents in source, frequency band and
transmission path. Take the following countermeasure suppression techniques.
The differences between harmonics and noises are indicated below:
zMeasures
Item Harmonics Noise
Frequency Normally number 40 to 50 max. (3kHz
or less) High frequency (several 10kHz to 1GHz order)
Environment To-electric channel, power impedance To-space, distance, wiring path
Quantitative understanding Theoretical calculation possible Random occurrence, quantitative grasping difficult
Generated amount Nearly proportional to load capacity Depending on the current fluctuation ratio (larger as
switching is faster)
Affected equipment immunity Specified in standard per equipment Different depending on maker's equipment
specifications
Suppression example Provide reactor. Increase distance.
The harmonic current generated from the inverter
to the input side differs according to various
conditions such as the wiring impedance, whether
a reactor is used or not, and output frequency and
output current on the load side.
For the output frequency and output current, we
understand that they should be calculated in the
conditions under the rated load at the maximum
operating frequency.
CAUTION
The power factor improving capacitor and surge suppressor on the inverter output side may be overheated or damaged by the
high frequency components of the inverter output. Also, since an excessive current flows in the inverter to activate overcurrent
protection, do not provide a capacitor and surge suppressor on the inverter output side when the motor is driven by the inverter.
For power factor improvement, install a reactor on the inverter input side or in the DC circuit.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF THE INVERTER
3.1.4 Harmonic Suppression Guidelines
Harmonic currents flow from the inverter to a power receiving point via a power transformer. The Harmonic
Suppression Guidelines were established to protect other consumers from these outgoing harmonic currents.
The three-phase 200V input specifications 3.7kW or less are previously covered by "Harmonic Suppression Guidelines
for Household Appliances and General-purpose Products" and other models are covered by "Harmonic Suppression
Guidelines for Consumers Who Receive High Voltage or Special High Voltage". However, the general-purpose inverter
has been excluded from the target products covered by "Harmonic Suppression Guidelines for Household Appliances
and General-purpose Products" in January 2004. Later, this guideline was repealed on 6 September 2004. All
capacities of all models are now target products of "Harmonic Suppression Guidelines for Consumers Who Receive
High Voltage or Special High Voltage" (hereinafter referred to as "Specific Consumer Guidelines").
"Specific Consumer Guidelines"
This guideline sets forth the maximum values of harmonic currents outgoing from a high-voltage or especially high-
voltage consumer who will install, add or renew harmonic generating equipment. If any of the maximum values is
exceeded, this guideline requires that consumer to take certain suppression measures.

EMC and leakage currents
1) Calculation of equivalent capacity P0 of harmonic generating equipment
The "equivalent capacity" is the capacity of a 6-pulse converter converted from the capacity of consumer's harmonic
generating equipment and is calculated with the following equation. If the sum of equivalent capacities is higher than
the limit in Table 3, harmonics must be calculated with the following procedure:
2) Calculation of outgoing harmonic current
Outgoing harmonic current = fundamental wave current (value converted from received power voltage) × operation
ratio × harmonic content
⋅Operation ratio: Operation ratio = actual load factor × operation time ratio during 30 minutes
⋅Harmonic content: Found in Table 4.
P0 = Σ (Ki × Pi) [kVA] * Rated capacity: Determined by the capacity of the applied motor and
found in Table 5. It should be noted that the rated capacity used here
is used to calculate generated harmonic amount and is different from
the power supply capacity required for actual inverter drive.
Ki: Conversion factor(According to Table 2)
Pi: Rated capacity of harmonic generating equipment* [kVA]

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF THE INVERTER
3)Harmonic suppression technique requirement
If the outgoing harmonic current is higher than the maximum value per 1kW (contract power) × contract power, a
harmonic suppression technique is required.
4)Harmonic suppression techniques
No. Item Description
1Reactor installation
(FR-HAL, FR-HEL)
Install an AC reactor (FR-HAL) on the AC side of the inverter or a DC reactor (FR-HEL) on
its DC side or both to suppress outgoing harmonic currents.
2High power factor converter
(FR-HC, MT-HC)
This converter trims the current waveform to be a sine waveform by switching in the rectifier
circuit (converter module) with transistors. Doing so suppresses the generated harmonic
amount significantly. Connect it to the DC area of an inverter. The high power factor
converter (FR-HC, MT-HC) is used with the standard accessory.
3Installation of power factor
improving capacitor
When used with a series reactor, the power factor improving capacitor has an effect of
absorbing harmonic currents.
4Transformer multi-phase
operation
Use two transformers with a phase angle difference of 30° as in - , - combination
to provide an effect corresponding to 12 pulses, reducing low-degree harmonic currents.
5Passive filter
(AC filter)
A capacitor and a reactor are used together to reduce impedances at specific frequencies,
producing a great effect of absorbing harmonic currents.
6 Active filter
This filter detects the current of a circuit generating a harmonic current and generates a
harmonic current equivalent to a difference between that current and a fundamental wave
current to suppress a harmonic current at a detection point, providing a great effect of
absorbing harmonic currents.

Installation of a reactor
60
3.2 Installation of a reactor
When the inverter is connected near a large-capacity power transformer (1000kVA or more) or when a power capacitor
is to be switched over, an excessive peak current may flow in the power input circuit, damaging the converter circuit. To
prevent this, always install the optional AC reactor (FR-HAL)
REMARKS
The wiring length between the FR-HEL and inverter should be 5m maximum and minimized. Use the same wire size as that of the
power supply wire (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3). (Refer to page 19)

Power-off and magnetic contactor (MC)
3
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF THE INVERTER
3.3 Power-off and magnetic contactor (MC)
(1) Inverter input side magnetic contactor (MC)
On the inverter input side, it is recommended to provide an MC for the following purposes.
(Refer to page 4 for selection.)
1)To release the inverter from the power supply when a fault occurs or when the drive is not functioning (e.g.
emergency stop operation). For example, MC avoids overheat or burnout of the brake resistor when heat capacity of
the resistor is insufficient or brake regenerative transistor is damaged with short while connecting an optional brake
resistor.
2)
To prevent any accident due to an automatic restart at restoration of power after an inverter stop made by a power failure
3)To separate the inverter from the power supply to ensure safe maintenance and inspection work
If using an MC for emergency stop during operation, select an MC regarding the inverter input side current as
JEM1038-AC-3 class rated current.
(2) Handling of the inverter output side magnetic contactor
Switch the magnetic contactor between the inverter and motor only when both the inverter and motor are at a stop.
When the magnetic contactor is turned ON while the inverter is operating, overcurrent protection of the inverter and
such will activate. When an MC is provided to switch to a commercial power supply, for example, it is recommended to
use bypass operation Pr. 135 to Pr. 139 (Refer to page 369).
REMARKS
Since repeated inrush currents at power ON will shorten the life of the converter circuit (switching life is about 1,000,000 times.
(For the 200V class 30K or higher, switching life is about 500,000)), frequent starts and stops of the MC must be avoided. Turn on/
off the inverter start controlling terminals (STF, STR) to run/stop the inverter.
• Inverter start/stop circuit example
As shown on the left, always use the start signal (ON or
OFF of STF (STR) signal) to make a start or stop. (Refer
to page 236)
*1 When the power supply is 400V class, install a step-down
transformer.
*2 Connect the power supply terminals R1/L11, S1/L21 of the
control circuit to the primary side of the MC to hold an
alarm signal when the inverter's protective circuit is
activated. At this time, remove jumpers across terminals R/
L1 and R1/L11 and S/L2 and S1/L21. (Refer to page 23 for
removal of the jumper.)

Inverter-driven 400V class motor
3.4 Inverter-driven 400V class motor
In the PWM type inverter, a surge voltage attributable to wiring constants is generated at the motor terminals.
Especially for a 400V class motor, the surge voltage may deteriorate the insulation. When the 400V class motor is
driven by the inverter, consider the following measures:
zMeasures
It is recommended to take either of the following measures:
(1) Rectifying the motor insulation and limiting the PWM carrier frequency according to the wiring length
For the 400V class motor, use an insulation-enhanced motor.
Specifically,
1)Specify the "400V class inverter-driven insulation-enhanced motor".
2)For the dedicated motor such as the constant-torque motor and low-vibration motor, use the "inverter-driven,
dedicated motor".
3)Set Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection as indicated below according to the wiring length
(2) Suppressing the surge voltage on the inverter side
Connect the surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H/FR-BMF-H) to the 55K or lower and the sine wave filter
(MT-BSL/BSC) to the 75K or higher on the inverter output side.
Wiring Length
50m or less 50m to 100m exceeding 100m
Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection 15 (14.5kHz) or less 9 (9kHz) or less 4 (4kHz) or less
CAUTION
· For details of Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection , refer to page 284. (When using an option sine wave filter (MT-BSL/BSC) for the 75K
or higher, set "25" (2.5kHz) in Pr. 72. )
· For explanation of surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H/FR-BMF-H) and sine wave filter (MT-BSL/BSC), refer to the
manual of each option.
· The surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H/FR-BMF-H) can be used under V/F control and Advanced magnetic flux vector
control. The sine wave filter (MT-BSL/BSC) can be used under V/F control.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF THE INVERTER
63
Precautions for use of the inverter
3.5 Precautions for use of the inverter
The FR-A700 series is a highly reliable product, but using incorrect peripheral circuits or incorrect operation/handling
methods may shorten the product life or damage the product.
Before starting operation, always recheck the following items.
(1) Use crimping terminals with insulation sleeve to wire the power supply and motor.
(2) Application of power to the output terminals (U, V, W) of the inverter will damage the inverter. Never perform
such wiring.
(3) After wiring, wire offcuts must not be left in the inverter.
Wire offcuts can cause an alarm, failure or malfunction. Always keep the inverter clean. When drilling mounting holes in
an enclosure etc., take care not to allow chips and other foreign matter to enter the inverter.
(4) Use cables of the size to make a voltage drop 2% maximum.
If the wiring distance is long between the inverter and motor, a main circuit cable voltage drop will cause the motor torque
to decrease especially at the output of a low frequency.
Refer to page 19 for the recommended cable sizes.
(5) The total wiring length should be within the prescribed length.
Especially for long distance wiring, the fast-response current limit function may decrease, or the equipment connected to
the secondary side may malfunction. This is caused by a charging current due to the stray capacity of the wiring. Therefore,
note the overall wiring length. (Refer to page 22.)
(6) Electromagnetic wave interference
The input/output (main circuit) of the inverter includes high frequency components, which may interfere with the
communication devices (such as AM radios) used near the inverter. In this case, set the noise filter valid to minimize
interference.
(7) Do not install a power factor correction capacitor, surge suppressor or radio noise filter on the inverter output
side.
This will cause the inverter to trip or the capacitor, and surge suppressor to be damaged. If any of the above devices is
installed, immediately remove it.
(8) For some short time after the power is switched OFF, a high voltage remains in the smoothing capacitor.
When accessing the inverter for inspection, wait for at least 10 minutes after the power supply has been switched OFF,
and then make sure that the voltage across the main circuit terminals P/+ and N/- of the inverter is not more than 30VDC
using a tester.
(9) A short circuit or earth (ground) fault on the inverter output side may damage the inverter modules.
· Fully check the insulation resistance of the circuit prior to inverter operation since repeated short circuits may damage
the inverter modules. These short circuits may be caused by peripheral circuit inadequacy, an earth (ground) fault
caused by wiring inadequacy, or reduced motor insulation resistance.
· Fully check the to-earth (ground) insulation and phase to phase insulation of the inverter output side before power-on.
Especially for an old motor or use in a hostile atmosphere, securely check the motor insulation resistance etc.
(10) Do not use the inverter input side magnetic contactor to start/stop the inverter.
Since repeated inrush currents at power ON will shorten the life of the converter circuit (switching life is about 1,000,000
times. (For the 200V class 30K or higher, switching life is about 500,000)), frequent starts and stops of the MC must be
avoided.
Always use the start signal (ON/OFF of STF and STR signals) to start/stop the inverter.
(11) Across P/+ and PR terminals, connect only an external regenerative brake discharge resistor.
Do not connect a mechanical brake.
(12) Do not apply a voltage higher than the permissible voltage to the inverter I/O signal circuits.
Application of a voltage higher than the permissible voltage to the inverter I/O signal circuits or opposite polarity may
damage the I/O devices. Especially check the wiring to prevent the speed setting potentiometer from being connected
incorrectly to short across terminals 10E and 5.
(Refer to page 15)
(Refer to page 61)

64
Precautions for use of the inverter
(13) Provide electrical and mechanical interlocks for MC1 and
MC2 which are used for bypass operation.
When the wiring is incorrect or if there is an electronic bypass
circuit as shown on the right, the inverter will be damaged by
leakage current from the power supply when it is connected to
the inverter U, V, W terminals due to arcs generated at the time
of switch-over or chattering caused by a sequence error.
(Commercial operation cannot be performed with the vector
dedicated motor (SF-V5RU, SF-THY).)
(14) If the machine must not be restarted when power is restored after a power failure, provide a magnetic contactor
in the inverter's input side and also make up a sequence which will not switch ON the start signal.
If the start signal (start switch) remains ON after a power failure, the inverter will automatically restart as soon as the
power is restored.
(15) A motor with encoder is necessary for vector control. In addition, connect the encoder directly to the backlash-
free motor shaft. (An encoder is not necessary for Real sensorless vector control.)
(16) Inverter input side magnetic contactor (MC)
On the inverter input side, connect a MC for the following purposes. (Refer to page 4 for selection.)
1)To release the inverter from the power supply when a fault occurs or when the drive is not functioning (e.g. emergency
stop operation). For example, MC avoids overheat or burnout of the brake resistor when heat capacity of the resistor is
insufficient or brake regenerative transistor is damaged with short while connecting an optional brake resistor.
2)To prevent any accident due to an automatic restart at restoration of power after an inverter stop made by a power
failure
3)To separate the inverter from the power supply to ensure safe maintenance and inspection work.
If using an MC for emergency stop during operation, select an MC regarding the inverter input side current as
JEM1038-AC-3 class rated current.
(17) Handling of inverter output side magnetic contactor
Switch the magnetic contactor between the inverter and motor only when both the inverter and motor are at a stop. When
the magnetic contactor is turned ON while the inverter is operating, overcurrent protection of the inverter and such will
activate. When MC is provided for switching to the commercial power supply, for example, switch it ON/OFF after the
inverter and motor have stopped.
(18) Countermeasures against inverter-generated EMI
If electromagnetic noise generated from the inverter causes frequency setting signal to fluctuate and motor
rotation speed to be unstable when changing motor speed with analog signal, the following countermeasures are
effective.
· Do not run the signal cables and power cables (inverter I/O cables) in parallel with each other and do not bundle them.
· Run signal cables as far away as possible from power cables (inverter I/O cables).
· Use shield cables as signal cables.
· Install a ferrite core on the signal cable (Example: ZCAT3035-1330 TDK).
(19) Instructions for overload operation
When performing an operation of frequent start/stop with the inverter, rise/fall in the temperature of the transistor element
of the inverter will repeat due to a continuous flow of large current, shortening the life from thermal fatigue. Since thermal
fatigue is related to the amount of current, the life can be increased by reducing current at locked condition, starting
current, etc. Decreasing current may increase the life. However, decreasing current will result in insufficient torque and
the inverter may not start. Therefore, choose the inverter which has enough allowance for current (up to 2 rank larger in
capacity).
(20) Make sure that the specifications and rating match the system requirements.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF THE INVERTER

Failsafe of the system which uses
the inverter
3.6 Failsafe of the system which uses the inverter
When a fault occurs, the inverter trips to output a fault signal. However, a fault output signal may not be output at an inverter
fault occurrence when the detection circuit or output circuit fails, etc. Although Mitsubishi assures best quality products,
provide an interlock which uses inverter status output signals to prevent accidents such as damage to machine when the
inverter fails for some reason and at the same time consider the system configuration where failsafe from outside the inverter,
without using the inverter, is enabled even if the inverter fails.
(1) Interlock method which uses the inverter status output signals
By combining the inverter status output signals to provide an interlock as shown below, an inverter alarm can be
detected.

1) Checking by the output of the inverter fault signal
When the inverter's protective function activates and the
inverter trips, the fault output signal (ALM signal) is output.
(ALM signal is assigned to terminal A1B1C1 in the initial
setting).
With this signal, you can check if the inverter is operating
properly.
In addition, negative logic can be set (ON when the inverter
is normal, OFF when the fault occurs).
2) Checking the inverter operating status by the inverter
operation ready completion signal
Operation ready signal (RY signal) is output when the
inverter power is ON and the inverter becomes operative.
Check if the RY signal is output after powering ON the
inverter.
3) Checking the inverter operating status by the start signal
input to the inverter and inverter running signal.
The inverter running signal (RUN signal) is output when the
inverter is running (RUN signal is assigned to terminal RUN
in the initial setting).
Check if RUN signal is output when inputting the start signal
to the inverter (forward signal is STF signal and reverse
signal is STR signal). For logic check, note that RUN signal
is output for the period from the inverter decelerates until
output to the motor is stopped, configure a sequence

Failsafe of the system which uses the
inverter
(2) Backup method outside the inverter
Even if the interlock is provided by the inverter status signal, enough failsafe is not ensured depending on the failure
status of the inverter itself. For example, when the inverter CPU fails, even if the interlock is provided using the inverter
fault signal, start signal and RUN signal, there is a case where a fault signal is not output and RUN signal is kept output
even if an inverter fault occurs.
Provide a speed detector to detect the motor speed and current detector to detect the motor current and consider the
backup system such as checking up as below according to the level of importance of the system.
1) Start signal and actual operation check
Check the motor running and motor current while the start signal is input to the inverter by comparing the start signal to
the inverter and detected speed of the speed detector or detected current of the current detector. Note that the motor
current runs as the motor is running for the period until the motor stops since the inverter starts decelerating even if the
start signal turns off. For the logic check, configure a sequence considering the inverter deceleration time. In addition, it is
recommended to check the three-phase current when using the current detector.
2) Command speed and actual operation check
Check if there is no gap between the actual speed and commanded speed by comparing the inverter speed command
and detected speed of the speed detector.
4) Checking the motor operating status by the start signal input to the inverter and inverter output current detection signal.
The output current detection signal (Y12 signal) is output when the inverter operates and currents flows in the motor.
Check if Y12 signal is output when inputting the start signal to the inverter (forward signal is STF signal and reverse
signal is STR signal). Note that the current level at which Y12 signal is output is set to 150% of the inverter rated current
in the initial value, it is necessary to adjust the level to around 20% using no load current of the motor as reference with
Pr.150 Output current detection level.
For logic check, as same as the inverter running signal (RUN signal), the inverter outputs for the period from the inverter
decelerates until output to the motor is stopped, configure a sequence considering the inverter deceleration time.

4.3 Control mode
V/F control (initial setting), Advanced magnetic flux vector control, Real sensorless vector control and vector control are
available with this inverter.
(1) V/F control
⋅It controls frequency and voltage so that the ratio of frequency (F) to voltage (V) is constant when changing frequency.
(2) Advanced magnetic flux vector control
⋅This control divides the inverter output current into an excitation current and a torque current by vector calculation
and makes voltage compensation to flow a motor current which meets the load torque.
(3) Real sensorless vector control
⋅By estimating the motor speed, speed control and torque control with more advanced current control function are
enabled. When high accuracy and fast response is necessary, select the Real sensorless vector control and
perform offline auto tuning.
⋅This control can be applied to the following applications.
⋅ To minimize the speed fluctuation even at a severe load fluctuation
⋅ To generate low speed torque
⋅ To prevent machine from damage due to too large torque (torque limit)
⋅ To perform torque control
(4) Vector control
⋅When the FR-A7AP/FR-A7AL is mounted, full-scale vector control operation can be performed using a motor with
encoder. Fast response/high accuracy speed control (zero speed control, servo lock), torque control, and position
control can be performed.
⋅What is vector control?
Excellent control characteristics when compared to V/F control and other control techniques, achieving the control
characteristics equal to those of DC machines.
It is suitable for applications below.
⋅ To minimize the speed fluctuation even at a severe load fluctuation
⋅ To generate low speed torque
⋅ To prevent machine from damage due to too large torque (torque limit)
⋅ To perform torque control or position control
⋅ Servo-lock torque control which generates torque at zero speed (i.e. status of motor shaft = stopped)
POINT

the above (other manufacturer's motor, SF-TH, etc.), perform offline auto tuning without fail.
· Single-motor operation (one motor run by one inverter) should be performed.
· Wiring length from inverter to motor should be within 30m. (Perform offline auto tuning in the state where wiring work is

4.3.1 What is vector control?
Vector control is one of the control techniques for driving an induction motor. To help explain vector control, the
fundamental equivalent circuit of an induction motor is shown below:
In the above diagram, currents flowing in the induction motor can be classified into a current id (excitation current) for
making a magnetic flux in the motor and a current iq (torque current) for causing the motor to develop a torque.
Motor-generated torque (TM), slip angular velocity (ωs) and the motor's secondary magnetic flux (φ2) can be found by
the following calculation:
r1 : Primary resistance
r2 : Secondary resistance
1: Primary leakage inductance
2: Secondary leakage inductance
M : Mutual inductance
S: Slip
id : Excitation current
iq : Torque current
im : Motor current
In vector control, the voltage and output frequency are
calculated to control the motor so that the excitation current
and torque current (as shown in the left figure) flow to the
optimum as described below:
(1) The excitation current is controlled to place the internal
magnetic flux of the motor in the optimum status.
(2) Derive the torque command value so that the
difference between the motor speed command and the
actual speed (speed estimated value for Real
sensorless vector control) obtained from the encoder
connected to the motor shaft is zero. Torque current is
controlled so that torque as set in the torque command
is developed.
TM ∝ φ2 ⋅ iq
φ2 = M ⋅ id
ωs =
where, L2 = secondary inductance
L2 = 2 + M
Vector control provides the following advantages:
(1) Excellent control characteristics when compared to V/
F control and other control techniques, achieving the
control characteristics equal to those of DC machines.
(2) Applicable to fast response applications with which
induction motors were previously regarded as difficult
to use. Applications requiring a wide variable-speed
range from extremely low speed to high speed,
frequent acceleration/deceleration operations,
continuous four-quadrant operations etc.
(3) Allows torque control.
(4) Allows servo-lock torque control which generates a
torque at zero speed (i.e. status of motor shaft =
stopped). (Cannot be performed under Real sensor-
less vector control.)

Control mode
(1) Speed control
Speed control operation is performed to zero the difference between the speed command (ω*) and actual rotation
detection value (ωFB). At this time, the motor load is found and its result is transferred to the torque current
controller as a torque current command (iq*).
(2) Torque current control
A voltage (Vq) is calculated to start a current (iq*) which is identical to the torque current command (iq) found by
the speed controller.
(3) Magnetic flux control
The magnetic flux (φ2) of the motor is derived from the excitation current (id). The excitation current command (id*)
is calculated to use that motor magnetic flux (φ2) as a predetermined magnetic flux.
(4) Excitation current control
A voltage (Vd) is calculated to start a current (id) which is identical to the excitation current command (id*) found by
magnetic flux control.
(5) Output frequency calculation
Motor slip (ωs) is calculated on the basis of the torque current value (iq) and magnetic flux (φ2). The output
frequency (w0) is found by adding that slip (ωs) to the feedback (ωFB) found by a feedback from the encoder.
The above results are used to make PWM modulation and run the motor.

(3) Vector control test operation (Pr. 800 = "9")
⋅Speed control test operation can be performed even when the motor is not connected.
The speed calculation value changes to track the speed command and the transition can be checked with the
operation panel and analog signal output at FM and AM.
(4) Control method switching by external terminals (RT signal, X18 signal)
⋅The switching of the control method (V/F control, Advanced magnetic flux vector control, Real sensorless vector
control and vector control) by the external terminal may be made in either of the following two ways: switching by
the second function selection signal (RT), or V/F switching signal (X18).
⋅Two types of control method can be switched with the RT signal by setting the type of motor to be used as second
motor in Pr. 450 Second applied motor and control method of the motor in Pr. 451 Second motor control method selection.
Turn ON the RT signal to select the second function.
⋅For switching by the X18 signal, setting "12, 14, 16, 18, 20" in Pr. 81 Number of motor poles and turning the X18
signal ON switches the present selected control method (Advanced magnetic flux vector control, Real sensorless
vector control and vector control) to V/F control. In this case, use this signal only for changing the control method of
one motor since second function as electronic thermal relay characteristic, etc. cannot be changed. (Use the RT
signal to change the second function.)
For the terminal used for X18 signal input, set "18" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to
assign the function.
*1 V/F control is selected when "12, 14, 16, 18, 20" is set in Pr. 81 and the X18 signal is ON. When the X18 signal is not assigned, turning the RT
signal ON selects V/F control as the RT signal shares this function.
CAUTION
⋅Since current is not detected and voltage is not output, monitors related to current and voltage such as output current and output
voltage, etc. and output signals do not function.
⋅For speed calculation, speed is calculated in consideration of Pr. 880 Load inertia ratio.

REMARKS
⋅The RT signal is assigned to the terminal RT in the initial setting. By setting "3" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function
selection), you can assign the RT signal to the other terminal.
⋅The RT signal acts as the second function selection signal and makes the other second functions valid. (Refer to page 235.)
⋅The control method could be changed by external terminals (RT signal, X18 signal) while the inverter is stopped.
If a signal is switched during the operation, the control method changes after the inverter stops.

Control mode
(5) Switching the control method from the external terminal (MC signal)
⋅When "12 (2)" is set in Pr. 800 (Pr. 451 ), speed control is selected when the control mode switching signal (MC) is
OFF, and torque control is selected when the signal is OFF under Real sensorless vector control and vector
control. Switching between speed control and torque control is always enabled.
Under vector control, speed control/position control switchover and torque control/position control switchover can be
made by setting "4, 5" in
Pr. 800
. For the terminal used for MC signal input, set "26" in any of
Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input
terminal function selection)
to assign the function.
⋅When an analog input terminal (terminal 1,4) is used for torque limit, torque command, etc., terminal functions also
switch as below if control mode is switched.

REMARKS
⋅Switching between speed control and torque control is always enabled independently of whether the motor is at a stop or
running or the DC injection brake operation (pre-excitation).
⋅During motor operation, speed control/position control switchover and torque control/position control switchover is made when
frequency drops to the Pr. 865 Low speed detection.
CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set
parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.

4.4.1 Setting procedure of Real sensorless vector control (speed control)
CAUTION
⋅Make sure to perform offline auto tuning before performing Real sensorless vector control.
⋅Speed command setting range is 0 to 120Hz for Real sensorless vector control.
⋅The carrier frequencies are selectable from among 2k, 6k, 10k, 14kHz for Real sensorless vector control.
⋅Torque control cannot be performed in the low speed (approx. 10Hz or less) regeneration range and with light load at low speed
(approx. 20% or less of rated torque at approx. 5Hz or less). Choose vector control.
⋅Performing pre-excitation (LX signal and X13 signal) under torque control may start the motor running at a low speed even when
the start command (STF or STR) is not input. The motor may run also at a low speed when the speed limit value = 0 with a start
command input. Perform pre-excitation after making sure that there will be no problem in safety if the motor runs.
⋅Do not switch between the STF (forward rotation command) and STR (reverse rotation command) during operation under torque
control. Overcurrent trip (E.OC) or opposite rotation deceleration fault (E.11) occurs.
⋅For the 0.4K to 3.7K, the speed deviation may become large at 20Hz or less and torque may become insufficient in the low speed
range under 1Hz during continuous operation under Real sensorless vector control. In this case, stop the inverter once, then start
again to improve.
⋅When the inverter is likely to start during motor coasting under Real sensorless vector control, set to make frequency search of
automatic restart after instantaneous power failure valid (Pr. 57 ≠ "9999", Pr. 162 = "10").
⋅Enough torque may not be generated in the ultra-low speed range less than approx. 2Hz when performing Real sensorless
vector control.
The guideline of speed control range is as shown below.
Driving: 1:200 (2, 4, 6 poles) Can be used at 0.3Hz or more at rated 60Hz
1:30 (8, 10 poles) Can be used at 2Hz or more at rated 60Hz

The following chart shows torque limit according to the settings of Pr. 816 Torque limit level during acceleration and Pr.
817 Torque limit level during deceleration.
(7) Setting increments switchover of the torque limit level (Pr. 811 )
⋅By setting "10, 11" in Pr. 811 Set resolution switchover, the setting increments of Pr. 22 Torque limit level and Pr. 812 to
Pr. 817 (torque limit level) can be switched to 0.01%.
(8) Change the torque characteristics in the constant power range (Pr. 803)
REMARKS
⋅The internal resolution of the torque limit is 0.024% (100/212) and the fraction less than the resolution is rounded off.
⋅When the torque limit setting increments have been changed (0.1%⇔0.01%), reset is necessary because the settings of Pr. 22
and Pr. 812 to Pr. 817 are multiplied by 1/10 (ten times).
For example, when 10 (0.01%) set in Pr. 811 is changed to 1 (0.1%) with Pr. 22 = 150.00%,
Pr. 22 = 1500.0% and the maximum torque is 400%.
⋅The fraction less than the resolution equivalent to 0.1% is rounded off even if "10 or 11" is set in Pr. 811 when Real sensorless
vector control is selected.
⋅Refer to page 251 for switchover of speed setting increments.
⋅You can select whether the torque limit in the constant
power range be constant torque limit (setting is "1") or
constant power limit (initial value is "0"), using Pr. 803

(9) Trip when torque limit is activated (Pr. 874 )
(10) Stall prevention operation signal output and output timing adjustment (OL signal, Pr. 157)
⋅When the output torque exceeds the torque limit level and torque limit is activated, the stall prevention operation
signal (OL signal) turns on for longer than 100ms. When the output torque falls to or below the torque limit level, the
output signal turns off.
⋅Use Pr. 157 OL signal output timer to set whether the OL signal is output immediately or after a preset period of time.
⋅This operation is also performed when the regeneration avoidance function (overvoltage stall) is executed.
⋅This function can cause a trip if the torque limit is activated
to stall the motor.
⋅The motor stalls if the torque limit is activated under a high
load applied during speed control or position control. At this
time, if the motor speed is lower than the speed set in Pr.
865 Low speed detection and also the output torque exceeds
the level set in Pr. 874 OLT level setting for 3s, it is regarded
as a stop effected by stall prevention and E. OLT is output,
resulting in a trip.
REMARKS
⋅If the frequency has fallen to 0.5Hz by stall prevention operation and remains for 3s under V/F control and Advanced magnetic
flux vector control, a fault (E.OLT) appears and trips the inverter. In this case, this function is activated regardless of Pr. 874 .
This fault is not provided under torque control.

REMARKS
⋅The OL signal is assigned to the terminal OL in the initial setting. The OL signal can also be assigned to the other terminal by
setting "3 (positive logic) or 103 (negative logic)" to any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection).
CAUTION
· When speed control is performed, a fault (E.OLT) is displayed and the inverter output is stopped if frequency drops to the Pr.
865 Low speed detection (initial value is 1.5Hz) setting by torque limit operation and the output torque exceeds Pr. 874 OLT level
setting (initial value is 150%) setting and remains for more than 3s.

PARAMETERS
4.4.4 To perform high accuracy/fast response operation (gain adjustment of Real
sensorless vector control and vector control) (Pr. 818 to Pr. 821, Pr. 830,
Pr. 831, Pr. 880)
(1) Block diagram of easy gain tuning function
The ratio of the load inertia to the motor inertia (load inertia moment) is estimated in real time from the torque
command and speed during motor operation by vector control. As optimum gain of speed control and position
control are automatically set from the load inertia ratio and response level, time and effort of making gain
adjustment are reduced. (Easy gain tuning)
When the load inertia ratio cannot be estimated due to load fluctuation or Real sensorless vector control is
exercised, control gain is automatically set by manually inputting the load inertia ratio.
Make a manual input adjustment when vibration, noise or any other unfavorable phenomenon occurs due to
large load inertia or gear backlash, for example, or when you want to exhibit the best performance that matches
the machine.

(2) Easy gain tuning execution procedure (Pr. 819 = "1" load inertia ratio automatic estimation)
Easy gain tuning (load inertia ratio automatic
estimation) is valid only in the speed control or
position control mode under vector control.
It is invalid under torque control, V/F control,
Advanced magnetic flux vector control and Real
sensorless vector control.
1) Set the response level using Pr. 818 Easy gain
tuning response level setting.
Refer to the diagram on the right and set the
response level.
Increasing the value will improve trackability
to the command, but too high value will
generate vibration. The relationship between
the setting and response level are shown on
the right.
2) Each control gain is automatically set from the
load inertia ratio estimated during
acceleration/deceleration operation and the Pr. 818 Easy gain tuning response level setting value.
Pr. 880 Load inertia ratio is used as the initial value of the load inertia ratio for tuning. Estimated value is set in Pr.
880 during tuning.
The load inertia ratio may not be estimated well, e.g. it takes a long time for estimation, if the following
conditions are not satisfied.
· Time taken for acceleration/deceleration to reach 1500r/min is 5s or less.
· Speed is 150r/min or more.
· Acceleration/deceleration torque is 10% or more of the rated torque.
· Abrupt disturbance is not applied during acceleration/deceleration.
· Load inertia ratio is approx. 30 times or less.
· No gear backlash nor belt looseness is found.
3) Press or to estimate the load inertia ratio or calculate gain any time. (The operation command for
External operation is the STF or STR signal.)
(3) Easy gain tuning execution procedure (Pr.819 = "2" load inertia manual input)
Easy gain tuning (load inertia ratio manual input) is valid only in the speed control mode under Real sensorless
vector control or in the speed control or position control mode under vector control.
1) Set the load inertia ratio to the motor in Pr. 880 Load inertia ratio.
2) Set "2" (with easy gain tuning) in Pr. 819 Easy gain tuning selection. Then, Pr. 820 Speed control P gain 1 and Pr. 821
Speed control integral time 1 are automatically set by gain calculation.
Operation is performed in a gain adjusted status from the next operation.
3) Perform a test run and set the response level in Pr. 818 Easy gain tuning response level setting. Increasing the value will
improve trackability to the command, but too high value will generate vibration. (When "2" (parameter write enabled
during operation) is set in Pr. 77 Parameter write selection , response level adjustment can be made during operation.)
REMARKS
· When "1 or 2" is set in Pr. 819 and then returned the Pr. 819 setting to "0" after tuning is executed, tuning results which are set in
each parameter remain unchanged.
· When good tuning accuracy is not obtained after executing easy gain tuning due to disturbance and such, perform fine
adjustment by manual input. Set "0" (without easy gain tuning) in Pr. 819.

(5) Manual input speed control gain adjustment
· Make adjustment when any of such phenomena as unusual machine vibration/noise, low response level and
overshoot has occurred.
· When there is load inertia, the actual speed gain is as given below.
· Adjustment procedures are as below:
1)Check the conditions and simultaneously change the Pr. 820 value.
2)If you cannot make proper adjustment, change the Pr. 821 value and repeat step 1).
·Pr. 820 Speed control P gain 1 = "60%" (initial value) is equivalent to
120rad/s (speed response of the motor alone). (Half the value for
75K or higher or for Real sensorless vector control.) Increasing the
setting value improves the response level, but a too large gain will
produce vibration and/or unusual noise.
· Decreasing the Pr. 821 Speed control integral time 1 shortens the
return time taken at a speed change. However, a too short time will
generate an overshoot.

Specially when using a multi-pole motor with more than 8 poles under Real sensorless vector control or vector control,
adjust Pr. 820 Speed control P gain 1 and Pr. 824 Torque control P gain 1 according to the motor referring to the following
methods.
·For Pr. 820 Speed control P gain 1, increasing the setting value improves the response level, but a too large gain will
produce vibration and/or unusual noise.
·For Pr. 824 Torque control P gain 1, note that a too low value will produce current ripples, causing the motor to generate
sound synchronizing the cycle of current ripples.
Adjustment method

· By turning the P/PI control switching signal (X44) ON/OFF during seed control operation under Real sensorless
vector control or vector control, you can select whether to add the integral time (I) or not when performing gain
adjustment with P gain and integral time.
When the X44 signal is OFF ......... PI control
When the X44 signal is ON ........... P control
· For the terminal used for X44 signal input, set "44" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to
assign the function.
[Function block diagram]
No. Phenomenon/Condition Adjustment Method
1The motor rotation is unstable in the low
speed range.
Set a higher value in Pr. 820 Speed control P gain 1 according to the motor
inertia.
Since the self inertia of a multi-pole motor tends to become large, make
adjustment to improve the unstable phenomenon, then make fine adjustment
in consideration of the response level using that setting as reference.
In addition, when performing vector control with encoder, gain adjustment
according to the inertia can be easily done using easy gain tuning (Pr. 819 = 1).
2 Speed trackability is poor Set a higher value in Pr. 820 Speed control P gain 1.
Increase the value 10% by 10% until just before vibration or unusual noise is
produced, and set about 0.8 to 0.9 of that value.
If you cannot make proper adjustment, increase the value of Pr. 821 Speed
control integral time 1 double by double and make adjustment of Pr. 820 again.

If the problem still persists after gain adjustment, increase Pr. 13 Starting

continuous operation in the ultra low speed range.
5Unusual motor and machine vibration,
noise or overcurrent occurs. Set a lower value in Pr. 824 Torque control P gain 1.
Decrease the value 10% by 10% until just before the phenomenon is
improved, and set about 0.8 to 0.9 of that value.

(2) Model adaptive speed control (Pr. 877 = "2")
⋅The motor's model speed is calculated to feed back the model side speed controller. This model speed is also used
as the actual speed controller command.
⋅The inertia ratio in Pr. 880 is used for calculation of the torque current command value given by the model side speed
controller.
⋅The torque current command value of the model side speed controller is added to the output of the actual speed
controller, and the result is used as the iq current control input.
Pr. 828 is used for model side speed control (P control), and the first gain in Pr. 820 is used for the actual speed
controller. The model adaptive speed control is valid for the first motor only.
(3) Combination of easy gain tuning
The following table indicates the relationships between the speed feed forward/model adaptive speed control and easy
gain tuning function.
REMARKS
· Even if the driven motor is switched to the second motor while Pr. 877 = 2, the second motor is operated as if Pr. 877 = 0.
CAUTION
The adequate gain value for the model and actual loop parts are set according to the response setting of easy gain tuning under

4.4.7 Prevent the motor from overrunning (Pr. 285, Pr. 853, Pr. 873)
(1) Speed deviation excessive (Pr. 285, Pr. 853)
When the deviation between the set frequency and actual speed is large, e.g. too large load torque, this function can
cause the inverter to provide a speed deviation excessive fault (E.OSD) and come to a trip.
(2) Speed limit (Pr. 873)
This function prevents the motor from overrunning when the setting of number of encoder pulses and the actual
number differ.
When the setting of number of encoder pulses is smaller than the actual number, the motor may increase its speed.
To prevent this, restrict the output frequency with frequency (obtained by adding the set frequency and Pr. 873 ).
This function prevents the motor from overrunning when the load torque is too large and incorrect number of the
encoder is set.

CAUTION
⋅If automatic restart after instantaneous power failure (Pr. 57 ≠ 9999) is selected when the setting of number of encoder pulses is
smaller than the actual number, the output speed is limited with the synchronous speed obtained by adding the maximum
setting (Pr. 1) and Pr. 873 setting.
⋅When speed limit function is activated due to regenerative torque limit, output torque may suddenly decrease. In addition,
output phase loss (E.LF) may occur when speed limit function is activated during pre-excitation.
When the setting of number of encoder pulses are correct, it is recommended to set a maximum value (120Hz) in Pr. 873.
⋅Even when the set frequency is lowered after the inverter has been started, the speed limit value does not decrease. Note that
the speed is limited to speed command + Pr. 873 setting during deceleration.

4.4.8 Notch filter (Pr. 862, Pr. 863)
(1) Pr. 862 Notch filter time constant
⋅If you do not know the mechanical resonance frequency, decrease notch frequency gradually from the highest value.
The point at which the smallest vibration is generated is the notch frequency setting.
⋅Machine characteristic can be obtained beforehand with machine analyzer by FR Configurator. Necessary notch
frequency can be determined from this.
(2) Pr. 863 Notch filter depth
⋅The notch filter with deeper depth has an effect on minimizing mechanical resonance. However, large vibration may
be generated adversely due to substantial phase delay. Make adjustment of notch depth in order of the shallower
depth.
You can reduce the response level of speed control in the resonance frequency band of the mechanical system
to avoid mechanical resonance.

Torque control is exercised to develop torque as set in the torque command.
The motor speed becomes constant when the motor output torque and load torque are balanced.
For torque control, therefore, the speed is determined by the load.
For torque control, the motor gains speed as the motor output torque becomes greater than the motor load.
To prevent overspeed, set the speed limit value so that the motor speed does not increase too high.
(Torque control is disabled under speed limit since speed control is exercised.)
When speed limit is not set, the speed limit value setting is regarded as 0Hz to disable torque control.

(3) Operation example (when Pr. 804 = "0")
Torque control is enabled if the actual speed is less than the speed limit value.
When the actual speed reaches or exceeds the speed limit value, speed limit operation starts, torque control is
stopped, and speed control (proportional control) starts.
The following shows the operations in response to the analog input command from terminal 1.
1) When STF signal is turned ON, the speed limit value is increased according to the time set in Pr. 7 .
2) Speed control operation is performed if the actual speed rises to or above the speed limit value.
3) When the STF signal is turned OFF, the speed limit value is decreased according to the time set in Pr. 8 .
4) For torque control, the actual speed becomes constant when the torque command and load torque are
balanced.
5) The motor torque developing direction is determined by the combination of the torque command input polarity
and start signal as indicated in the following table.

REMARKS
⋅When speed limit operation starts, speed control is exercised to enable internal torque limit (Pr. 22 torque limit level) (initial
value). Speed control may not be returned to torque control in this case.
Torque limit be set to external torque limit (terminal 1, 4). (Refer to page 100.)
⋅Undervoltage avoidance function (Pr. 261 = "11, 12") of power-failure deceleration stop function is invalid under torque control.
When Pr. 261 = "11 (12)", the inverter operates in the same manner as when "1 (2)" is set in Pr. 261.
⋅Set linear acceleration/deceleration (Pr. 29 = "0 (initial value)") when torque control is exercised. When acceleration/
deceleration patterns other than the linear acceleration/deceleration are selected, the protective function of the inverter may
function. (Refer to page 176)
CAUTION
⋅Performing pre-excitation (LX signal and X13 signal) under torque control (Real sensorless vector control) may start the motor
running at a low speed even when the start command (STF or STR) is not input. The motor may run also at a low speed when

PARAMETERS
4.5.2 Setting procedure of Real sensorless vector control (torque control)
CAUTION
⋅Make sure to perform offline auto tuning before performing Real sensorless vector control.
⋅The carrier frequencies are selectable from among 2k, 6k, 10k, 14kHz for Real sensorless vector control.
⋅Torque control cannot be performed in the low speed (approx. 10Hz or less) regeneration range and with light load at low speed
(approx. 20% or less of rated torque at approx. 5Hz or less). Choose vector control.
⋅Performing pre-excitation (LX signal and X13 signal) under torque control may start the motor running at a low speed even when
the start command (STF or STR) is not input. The motor may run also at a low speed when the speed limit value = 0 with a start
command input. Perform pre-excitation after making sure that there will be no problem in safety if the motor runs.
⋅Do not switch between the STF (forward rotation command) and STR (reverse rotation command) during operation under torque
control. Overcurrent trip (E.OC) or opposite rotation deceleration fault (E.11) occurs.
⋅For the 0.4K to 3.7K, the speed deviation may become large at 20Hz or less and torque may become insufficient in the low speed
region under 1Hz during continuous operation under Real sensorless vector control. In this case, stop the inverter once, then
start again to improve.
⋅When the inverter is likely to start during motor coasting under Real sensorless vector control, set to make frequency search of
automatic restart after instantaneous power failure valid (Pr. 57 ≠ "9999", Pr. 162 = "10").
⋅Enough torque may not be generated in the ultra-low speed range less than approx. 2Hz when performing Real sensorless
vector control.
The guideline of speed control range is as shown below.
Driving: 1:200(2, 4, 6 poles) Can be used at 0.3Hz or more at rated 60Hz
1:30(8, 10 poles) Can be used at 2Hz or more at rated 60Hz

4.5.6 Gain adjustment of torque control (Pr. 824, Pr. 825, Pr. 834, Pr. 835)
(1) Adjustment of current loop proportional (P) gain
⋅For general adjustment, make setting within the range 50 to 200% as a guideline.
⋅Set the proportional gain for torque control.
⋅Increasing the value improves trackability in response to a current command change and reduces current variation
with disturbance. However, a too large gain will cause instability, generating harmonic torque pulsation.
(2) Adjustment of current control integral time
⋅Set the integral time of current control during torque control.
⋅A small value enhances the torque response level, but a too small value will cause current fluctuation.
⋅Decreasing the value shortens the time taken to return to the original torque if current variation with disturbance
occurs.
(3) Use multiple gains
⋅When you want to change the gain according to applications, switch multiple motors with one inverter, etc., use
Torque control P gain 2 and Torque control integral time 2 .
⋅Pr. 834 Torque control P gain 2 and Pr. 835 Torque control integral time 2 are valid when the RT signal is ON.
Although stable operation is possible with the initial value, make adjustment when any of such phenomena as
unusual motor and machine vibration/noise and overcurrent has occurred.

(4) Adjustment procedure
Make adjustment when any of such phenomena as unusual motor and machine vibration/noise/current and

1)Check the conditions and simultaneously change the Pr. 824 value.
2)If you cannot make proper adjustment, change the Pr. 825 value and repeat step 1).
(5) Troubleshooting (Torque)
Adjustment Method
Set Pr. 824 a little lower and Pr. 825 a little higher. First lower Pr. 824 and check the motor for unusual vibration/noise and
overcurrent. If the problem still persists, increase Pr. 825 .
Pr. 824
Decrease the value 10% by 10% until just before unusual noise and current are improved, and set about 0.8 to 0.9
of that value.
Note that a too low value will produce current ripples, causing the motor to generate sound synchronizing the cycle
of current ripples.
Pr. 825
Increase the current value double by double until just before an unusual noise and current does not occur, and set
about 0.8 to 0.9 of that value.
Note that taking a too long time will produce current ripples, causing the motor to generate sound synchronizing
the cycle of current ripples.

(2) Control block diagram
(3) Example of operation
The speed command given to rotate the motor is calculated to zero the difference between the number of internal
command pulse train pulses (when Pr. 419 = 0, the number of pulses set by parameter (Pr. 465 to Pr. 494) is changed to
the command pulses in the inverter) and the number of pulses fed back from the motor end encoder.
1)When a pulse train is input, pulses are accumulated in the deviation counter and these droop pulses act as position
control pulses to give the speed command.
2)As soon as the motor starts running under the speed command of the inverter, the encoder generates feed back
pulses and the droop of the deviation counter is counted down. The deviation counter maintains a given droop pulse
value to keep the motor running.
3)When the command pulse input stops, the droop pulses of the deviation counter decrease, reducing the speed. The
motor stops when there are no droop pulses.
4)When the number of droop pulses has fallen below the value set in Pr. 426 In-position width , it is regarded as
completion of positioning and the in-position signal (Y36) turns ON.
⋅For simple position control function by contact input, the STF and STR terminals provide the forward (reverse)
command signal. The motor can run only in the direction where the forward (reverse) signal is ON. Turning the STF
signal OFF does not run the motor forward and turning the STR signal OFF does not run the motor reverse.
⋅The pulse train is rough during acceleration and coarse at the maximum speed. During deceleration the pulse train is
rough and at last there are no pulses. The motor stops shortly after the command pulses stop.
This time lag is necessary for maintaining the stop accuracy and called stop settling time.

(1) Setting of position feed amount by parameter
⋅Set position feed amount in Pr. 465 to Pr. 494 .
⋅The feed amount set in each parameter is selected by multi-speed terminal (RH, RM, RL, REX).
⋅Set (encoder resolution × speed × 4 times) for position feed amount.
⋅For example, the formula for stopping the motor after 100 rotations using the SF-V5RU is as follows:
2048 (pulse/rev) × 100 (speed) × 4 = 819200 (feed amount)
To set 819200 for the first position feed amount, divide the value into upper four digits and lower four digits and set
81 (decimal) in Pr. 466 (upper) and 9200 (decimal) in Pr. 465 (lower).
(2) Position command operation by parameter
⋅For deceleration by turning the STF(STR) OFF, use Pr. 464 Digital position control sudden stop deceleration time to set
deceleration time.
REMARKS
⋅Acceleration/deceleration time is 0.1s minimum and 360s maximum.
⋅Pr. 20 Acceleration/deceleration reference frequency is clamped at a minimum of 16.66Hz (500r/min).
⋅The acceleration/deceleration patterns for position control are all linear acceleration and the setting of Pr. 29 Acceleration/
deceleration pattern selection is invalid.
CAUTION
Information on multi-speed command (position command by RL, RM, RH, and REX signals) is determined at rising of the forward
(reverse) command to perform position control. Therefore, set forward (reverse) command after multi-speed command (position

⋅The position resolution (travel per pulse Δ [mm]) is determined by the travel per motor revolution Δs [mm] and the

Using the parameters, the travel per command pulse can be set separately to set the travel per command pulse

Position control by vector control
Relationship between position resolution Δ and overall accuracy
Since overall accuracy (positioning accuracy of machine) is the sum of electrical error and mechanical error, normally
take measures to prevent the electrical system error from affecting the overall error. As a guideline, refer to the
following relationship.
<Stopping characteristic of motor>
When parameters are used to run the motor, the internal command pulse frequency and motor speed have the
relationship as shown in the chart on page 133, and as the motor speed decreases, pulses are accumulated in the
deviation counter of the inverter. These pulses are called droop pulses (ε) and the relationship between command
frequency (fo) and position loop gain (Kp: Pr. 422) is as represented by the following expression.
When the initial value of Kp is 25s-1, the droop pulses (ε) are 8192 pulses.
Since the inverter has droop pulses during running, a stop settling time (ts) is needed from when the command has
zeroed until the motor stops. Set the operation pattern in consideration of the stop settling time.
When the initial value of Kp is 25s-1, the stop settling time (ts) is 0.12s.
The positioning accuracy Δε is (5 to 10) × Δ = Δε [mm]
(2) Position command acceleration/deceleration time constant (Pr. 424 )
⋅When the electronic gear ratio is large (about 10 or more times) and the speed is low, rotation will not be smooth,
resulting in pulse-wise rotation. At such a time, set this parameter to smooth the rotation.
⋅When acceleration/deceleration time cannot be provided for the command pulses, a sudden change in command
pulse frequency may cause an overshoot or error excess alarm. At such a time, set this parameter to provide
acceleration/deceleration time.
Normally set 0.
4.6.5 Setting of positioning adjustment parameter (Pr. 426, Pr. 427)
(1) In-position width (Pr. 426 )
The Y36 signal acts as an in-position signal.
When the number of droop pulses has fallen below the setting value, the in-position signal (Y36) turns ON.
For the Y36 signal, assign the function by setting "36" (positive logic) or "136" (negative logic) in any of Pr. 190 to Pr.
196 (output terminal function selection) .
(2) Excessive level error (Pr. 427 )
When droop pulses exceed the value set in Pr. 427 , excessive position error occurs and displays a fault (E.OD) to trip
the inverter. When you decreased the Pr. 422 Position loop gain setting, increase the error excessive level setting.
Also decrease the setting when you want to detect an error slightly earlier under large load.
When "9999" is set in Pr. 427 , excessive position error (E.OD) does not occur regardless of droop pulses.

(1) Position loop gain (Pr. 422 )
⋅Make adjustment when any of such phenomena as unusual vibration, noise and overcurrent of the motor/machine
occurs.
⋅Increasing the setting improves trackability for the position command and also improves servo rigidity at a stop, but
oppositely makes an overshoot and vibration more liable to occur.
⋅Normally set this parameter within the range about 5 to 50.
(2) Position feed forward gain (Pr. 423 )

within the range where an overshoot or vibration will not occur.
⋅This function has no effects on servo rigidity at a stop.
⋅Normally set this parameter to 0.
Easy gain tuning is available as an easy tuning method. Refer to page 105 for easy gain tuning.

What is Advanced magnetic flux vector control?
The low speed torque can be improved by providing voltage compensation to flow a motor current which meets
the load torque. Output frequency compensation (slip compensation) is made so that the motor actual speed
approximates a speed command value. Effective when load fluctuates drastically, etc.

(2) Stall prevention operation signal output and output timing adjustment (OL signal, Pr. 157)
⋅When the output power exceeds the stall prevention operation level and stall prevention is activated, the stall
prevention operation signal (OL signal) turns ON for longer than 100ms. When the output power falls to or below
the stall prevention operation level, the output signal turns OFF.
⋅Use Pr. 157 OL signal output timer to set whether the OL signal is output immediately or after a preset period of time.
⋅This operation is also performed when the regeneration avoidance function (overvoltage stall) is executed.
(3) Setting of stall prevention operation in high frequency range (Pr. 22, Pr. 23, Pr. 66)
⋅During high-speed operation above the rated motor frequency, acceleration may not be made because the motor
current does not increase. If operation is performed in a high frequency range, the current at motor lockup
becomes smaller than the rated output current of the inverter, and the protective function (OL) is not executed if the
motor is at a stop.
To improve the operating characteristics of the motor in this case, the stall prevention level can be reduced in the
high frequency range. This function is effective for performing operation up to the high-speed range on a centrifugal
separator etc. Normally, set 60Hz in Pr. 66 and 100% in Pr. 23.
⋅Formula for stall prevention operation level
⋅When Pr. 23 Stall prevention operation level compensation factor at double speed = "9999" (initial value), the stall
prevention operation level is kept constant at the Pr. 22 setting up to 400Hz.
CAUTION
⋅If an overload status lasts long, an inverter trip (e.g. electronic thermal relay function (E.THM)) may occur.
⋅When Pr. 156 has been set to activate the fast response current limit (initial value), the Pr. 22 setting should not be higher than
170%. The torque will not be developed by doing so.

REMARKS
⋅The OL signal is assigned to the terminal OL in the initial setting. The OL signal can also be assigned to the other terminal by
setting "3 (positive logic) or 103 (negative logic)" to any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection).
CAUTION
· If the frequency has fallen to 0.5Hz by stall prevention operation and remains for 3s, a fault (E.OLT) appears to trip the inverter.
· Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set

(4) Set multiple stall prevention operation levels (Pr. 48, Pr. 49, Pr. 114, Pr. 115)
⋅Setting "9999" in Pr. 49 Second stall prevention operation frequency and
turning the RT signal ON make Pr. 48 Second stall prevention operation
current valid.
⋅In Pr. 48 (Pr. 114), you can set the stall prevention operation level at the
output frequency from 0Hz to that set in Pr. 49 (Pr. 115).
During acceleration, however, the operation level is as set in Pr. 22.
⋅This function can also be used for stop-on-contact or similar operation by
decreasing the Pr. 48 (Pr. 114) setting to weaken the deceleration torque
(stopping torque).
⋅Pr. 114 and Pr. 115 are valid when the X9 signal is ON. For the terminal
used for X9 signal input, set "9" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 input terminal
function selection to assign the X9 signal function.
REMARKS
⋅When Pr. 49 ≠ "9999" (level changed according to frequency) and Pr. 48 = "0%", the stall prevention operation level is 0% at or
higher than the frequency set in Pr. 49.
⋅In the initial setting, the RT signal is assigned to the RT terminal. By setting "3" to any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function
selection), you can assign the RT signal to the other terminal.
CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set
parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.
⋅The RT(X9) signal acts as the second (third) function selection signal and makes the other second (third) functions valid. (Refer

CAUTION
⋅When the load is heavy, or when the acceleration/deceleration time is short, stall prevention is activated and acceleration/
deceleration may not be made according to the preset acceleration/deceleration time. Set Pr. 156 and stall prevention operation
level to the optimum values.
⋅In vertical lift applications, make setting so that the fast response current limit is not activated. Torque may not be produced,
causing a drop due to gravity.
CAUTION
Do not set a small value as the stall prevention operation current.
Otherwise, torque generated will reduce.
Always perform test operation.
Stall prevention operation during acceleration may increase the acceleration time.
Stall prevention operation performed during constant speed may cause sudden speed changes.
Stall prevention operation during deceleration may increase the deceleration time, increasing the deceleration

PARAMETERS
4.10.3 Elevator mode (automatic acceleration/deceleration) (Pr. 61, Pr. 64, Pr. 292)
(1) Elevator mode
⋅When "5" or "6" is set in Pr. 292 Automatic acceleration/deceleration , elevator mode is selected and each setting is
changed as in the table below.
⋅Enough torque is generated during power driving and the torque boost value is automatically changed during
regeneration and operation without load so that overcurrent protection function does not activate due to over
excitation.
⋅When operating the elevator with load more than the rated inverter current, the maximum torque may become
insufficient. For the elevator without counterweight, setting "2 or 3" (for elevator load) in Pr. 14 Load pattern selection
and an appropriate value in Pr. 19 Base frequency voltage will generate larger maximum torque than when elevator
mode is selected.
(2) Adjustment of elevator mode (Pr. 61, Pr. 64)
⋅By setting the adjustment parameters Pr. 61 and Pr. 64, the application range can be made wider.
Operation matching a load characteristic of elevator with counterweight can be performed.

REMARKS
⋅Even if elevator mode has been selected, inputting the jog signal (jog operation), RT signal (second function selection) or X9
signal (third function selection) during an inverter stop will switch to the normal operation and give priority to jog operation or
second and third function selection. Note that JOG and RT signal input is invalid even if JOG signal and RT signal are input
during operation with acceleration/deceleration selected.
⋅Elevator mode is invalid when Advanced magnetic flux vector, Real sensorless vector control or vector control is selected.
⋅Since the Pr. 61 and Pr. 64 settings automatically return to the initial value (9999) if the Pr. 292 setting is changed, set Pr. 292 first
when you need to set Pr. 61 and Pr. 64.

⋅For a machine of large static friction coefficient and small dynamic
static friction coefficient, for example, set a V/F pattern that will
increase the voltage only in a low-speed range since such a machine
requires large torque at a start.
(Setting procedure)
1)Set the rated motor voltage in Pr. 19 Base frequency voltage. (No
function at the setting of "9999" (initial value) or "8888".)
2)Set Pr. 71 Applied motor to "2" (Adjustable 5 points V/F characteristic).
3)Set the frequency and voltage you want to set in Pr. 100 to Pr. 109.
CAUTION
⋅
Adjustable 5 points V/F characteristics function only under V/F control. They do not function under Advanced magnetic flux
vector control, Real sensorless vector control or vector control.
⋅

Frequency setting by external terminals
(1) Remote setting function
⋅Use Pr. 59 to select whether the remote setting function is used or not and whether the frequency setting storage
function in the remote setting mode is used or not.
When Pr. 59 is set to any of "1 to 3" (remote setting function valid), the functions of the RH, RM and RL signals are
changed to acceleration (RH), deceleration (RM) and clear (RL).
⋅When the remote function is used, the output frequency of the inverter can be compensated for as follows:
External operation
...Frequency set with RH and RM operation + external operation frequency other than multi-speed
(PU operation frequency when
Pr. 79
= "3" (external, PU combined)) and terminal 4 input.
(When making analog input compensation, set "1" in Pr. 28 Multi-speed input compensation
selection.
When Pr. 28 is set to "0" and acceleration/deceleration is made to reach the set frequency of
the analog voltage input (terminal 2 or terminal 4) by RH/RM, the auxiliary input by terminal 1
becomes invalid.)
PU operation .......... Frequency set by RH/RM operation + PU running frequency
(2) Frequency setting storage
⋅The frequency setting storage function stores the remotely-set frequency (frequency set by RH/RM operation) into
the memory (EEPROM). When power is switched OFF once, then ON, operation is resumed with that output
frequency value. (Pr. 59 = 1)
<Frequency setting storage conditions>
⋅Frequency at the point when the start signal (STF or STR) turns off
⋅Remotely-set frequency is stored every minute after turning OFF (ON) the RH (acceleration) and RM
(deceleration) signals together. (The frequency is overwritten if the latest frequency is different from the
previous frequency when comparing the two. The state of the RL signal does not affect writing.)
CAUTION
⋅The range of frequency changeable by RH
(acceleration) and RM (deceleration) is 0 to
maximum frequency (Pr. 1 or Pr. 18 setting). Note that
the maximum value of set frequency is (main speed
+ maximum frequency).
⋅When the acceleration or deceleration signal switches ON, acceleration/deceleration time is as set in Pr. 44 Second acceleration/
deceleration time and Pr. 45 Second deceleration time. Note that when the time set in Pr. 7 or Pr. 8 is longer than the time set in Pr.44
or Pr. 45, the acceleration/deceleration time is as set in Pr. 7 or Pr. 8. (when RT signal is OFF)
When the RT signal is ON, acceleration/deceleration is made in the time set to Pr. 44 and Pr. 45, regardless of the Pr. 7 or Pr. 8
setting.
⋅Even if the start signal (STF or STR) is OFF, turning ON the acceleration (RH) or deceleration (RM) signal varies the preset
frequency.
⋅When switching the start signal from ON to OFF, or changing frequency by the RH or RM signal frequently, set the frequency
setting value storage function (write to EEPROM) invalid (Pr. 59 = "2, 3"). If set valid (Pr. 59 = "1"), frequency is written to
EEPROM frequently, this will shorten the life of the EEPROM.
⋅The RH, RM, RL signals can be assigned to the input terminal using any Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection). When
terminal assignment is changed, the other functions may be affected. Set parameters after confirming the function of each
terminal.

reference frequency.
⋅Set the deceleration time according to the following formula.
(3) Change the setting range and increments of the acceleration/deceleration time (Pr. 21)
⋅Use Pr. 21 to set the acceleration/deceleration time and minimum setting range.
Setting "0" (initial value)......................0 to 3600s (minimum setting increments 0.1s)

(4) Set multiple acceleration/deceleration time (RT signal, X9 signal, Pr. 44, Pr. 45, Pr. 110, Pr. 111,
Pr. 147)
⋅Pr. 44 and Pr. 45 are valid when the RT signal is ON, or the output frequency reaches or exceeds the setting of Pr.
147. Pr. 110 and Pr. 111 are valid when the X9 signal is ON. When the RT signal (X9 signal) turns ON, the
acceleration/deceleration time switches to the second (third) acceleration/deceleration time even when the output
frequency has not reached the Pr. 147 setting. Priority of switching is X9 signal > RT signal > Pr. 147 setting.
⋅For the terminal used for X9 signal input, set "9" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to assign
the function.
⋅When "9999" is set in Pr. 45 or Pr. 111, the deceleration time becomes equal to the acceleration time (Pr. 44, Pr. 110).
⋅When Pr. 110 = "9999", third acceleration/deceleration time is invalid.
⋅If the Pr. 147 setting is lower than Pr. 10 DC injection brake operation frequency or Pr. 13 Starting frequency setting, the
acceleration/deceleration time switches to the Pr. 44 (Pr. 45) setting when the output frequency exceeds the Pr. 10 or
Pr. 13 setting.
(1) Acceleration time setting (Pr. 7, Pr. 20)
⋅Use Pr. 7 Acceleration time to set the acceleration time required to reach Pr.
20 Acceleration/deceleration reference frequency from 0Hz.
⋅Set the acceleration time according to the following formula.
Example) How to find the setting value for Pr. 7 when increasing the output
frequency to the maximum frequency of 50Hz in 10s with Pr.20 =
60Hz (initial value) and Pr.13=0.5Hz.
Example)How to find the setting value for Pr.8 when decreasing the output
frequency from the maximum frequency of 50Hz in 10s with Pr.
20 =120Hz and Pr. 10 = 3Hz.
CAUTION
⋅Changing the Pr. 21 setting changes the acceleration/deceleration time setting (Pr. 7, Pr. 8, Pr. 16, Pr. 44, Pr. 45, Pr. 110, Pr. 111, Pr.
264, Pr. 265).
(The Pr. 611 Acceleration time at a restart setting is not affected.)

REMARKS
⋅The RT (X9) signal acts as the second (third) function selection signal and makes the other second (third) function valid. (Refer
to page 235)
⋅The RT signal is assigned to the RT terminal in the default setting. By setting "3" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal
function selection), you can assign the RT signal to the other terminal.
⋅If the Pr. 20 setting is changed, the Pr. 125 and Pr. 126 (frequency setting signal gain frequency) settings do not change. Set Pr. 125
and Pr. 126 to adjust the gains.
⋅When the Pr. 7, Pr. 8, Pr. 44, Pr. 45, Pr. 110 and Pr. 111 settings are 0.03s or less, the acceleration/deceleration time is 0.04s
(under V/F control, Advanced magnetic flux vector control). At that time, set Pr. 20 to "120Hz" or less.
⋅If the acceleration/deceleration time is set, the actual motor acceleration/deceleration time cannot be made shorter than the
shortest acceleration/deceleration time determined by the mechanical system J (moment of inertia) and motor torque.

(1) Starting frequency setting (Pr. 13)
⋅Frequency at start can be set in the range 0 to 60Hz.
⋅You can set the starting frequency at which the start signal is
turned ON.
CAUTION
The inverter will not start if the frequency setting signal is less than the value set in Pr. 13.
For example, when 5Hz is set in Pr. 13, the motor will not start running until the frequency setting signal reaches 5Hz.
(2) Start-time hold function (Pr. 571)
⋅This function holds the time set in Pr. 571 and the output
frequency set in Pr. 13 Starting frequency.
⋅This function performs initial excitation to smooth the motor drive
at a start.
CAUTION
⋅When the start signal was turned OFF during start-time hold, deceleration is started at that point.
⋅At switching between forward rotation and reverse rotation, the starting frequency is valid but the start-time hold function is
invalid.
CAUTION
Note that when Pr. 13 is set to any value equal to or less than Pr. 2 Minimum frequency, simply turning ON the start
signal will run the motor at the preset frequency even if the command frequency is not input.

(1) Linear acceleration/ deceleration (
Pr. 29
= "0", initial value)
⋅When the frequency is changed for acceleration, deceleration, etc. in inverter
operation, the output frequency is changed linearly (linear acceleration/
deceleration) to reach the set frequency without straining the motor and inverter.
Linear acceleration/deceleration has a uniform frequency/time slope.
(2) S-pattern acceleration/deceleration A (
Pr. 29
=
"1")
⋅For machine tool spindle applications, etc.
Used when acceleration/deceleration must be made in a short time to a high-
speed range of not lower than the base frequency. In this acceleration/
deceleration pattern, Pr. 3 Base frequency (fb) is the inflection point of the S
pattern and you can set the acceleration/deceleration time appropriate for motor
torque reduction in a constant-power operation region of Pr. 3 Base frequency
(initial value = 60Hz) or higher.

PARAMETERS
(3) S-pattern acceleration/deceleration B (
Pr. 29
=
"2")
⋅For prevention of load shifting in conveyor and other applications
Since acceleration/deceleration is always made in an S shape from current
frequency (f2) to target frequency (f1), this function eases shock produced at
acceleration/deceleration and is effective for load collapse prevention, etc.
(4) Backlash measures (
Pr. 29
=
"3", Pr. 140 to Pr. 143)
⋅What is backlash?
Reduction gears have an engagement gap and have a dead zone between
forward rotation and reverse rotation. This dead zone is called backlash, and
this gap disables a mechanical system from following motor rotation.
More specifically, a motor shaft develops excessive torque when the direction of
rotation changes or when constant-speed operation shifts to deceleration,
resulting in a sudden motor current increase or regenerative status.
⋅To avoid backlash, acceleration/deceleration is temporarily stopped.
Set the acceleration/deceleration stopping frequency and time in Pr. 140 to Pr.
143.
CAUTION
Setting the backlash measures increases the acceleration/deceleration time by the stopping time.
(5) S-pattern acceleration/deceleration C (Pr. 29 =
"4", Pr. 380 to Pr. 383)
⋅With the S-pattern acceleration/deceleration C switch
signal (X20), an acceleration/deceleration curve S-pattern 1
or S-pattern 2 can be selected.
⋅For the terminal used for X20 signal input, set "20" in any of
Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to assign
the function.
Parameter setting (%) Ts / T × 100% ⋅Set % of time taken for forming an S-pattern in Pr. 380 to Pr.
383 as acceleration time is 100%.
CAUTION
⋅Change the S pattern acceleration/deceleration C switch (X20 signal) after the speed becomes constant.
⋅S pattern operation before switching continues even if the X20 signal is changed during acceleration or deceleration.
⋅The X20 signal can be assigned to the input terminal using any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection). Changing
the terminal assignment may affect the other functions. Set parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.

Setting of acceleration/deceleration time

4.12.4 Shortest acceleration/deceleration and optimum acceleration/deceleration
(automatic acceleration/deceleration) (Pr. 61 to Pr. 63, Pr. 292, Pr. 293)
(1) Shortest acceleration/deceleration mode (Pr. 292 = "1, 11", Pr. 293)
⋅Set when you want to accelerate/decelerate the motor for the shortest time. It is desired to make acceleration/
deceleration in a shorter time for a machine tool etc. but the design values of machine constants are unknown.
⋅Acceleration/deceleration speed is automatically adjusted at a start of acceleration/deceleration so that
acceleration/deceleration is made with the maximum torque the inverter can output according to the setting value
of Pr. 7 Acceleration time and Pr. 8 Deceleration time. (The setting values of Pr. 7 and Pr. 8 are not changed)
⋅Either acceleration or deceleration can be made in the shortest time using Pr. 293 Acceleration/deceleration separate
selection.
When the setting value is "0" (initial value), both acceleration and deceleration can be made in the shortest time.
⋅Since the 7.5K or lower inverter has a built-in brake resistor, set Pr. 292 to "11". Set "11" also when a high-duty
brake resistor or brake unit is connected. Deceleration time can be further shortened.
⋅When the shortest acceleration/deceleration mode is selected under V/F control and Advanced magnetic flux
vector control, the stall prevention operation level during acceleration/deceleration becomes 150% (adjustable
using Pr. 61 to Pr. 63 ). The setting of Pr. 22 Stall prevention operation level and stall level by analog input are used
only during a constant speed operation.
Adjustment using Pr. 61 to Pr. 63 cannot be made under Real sensorless vector control or vector control since
torque limit level (Pr. 22 etc.) is used during acceleration/deceleration.
⋅It is inappropriate to use for the following applications.
a)Machine with a large inertia such as a fan (more than 10 times). Since stall prevention operation will be
activated for a long time, this type of machine may trip due to motor overloading, etc.
b)It is desired to always perform operation with a constant acceleration/deceleration time.
The inverter operates in the same conditions as when appropriate values are set in each parameter even if
acceleration/deceleration time and V/F pattern are not set. This function is useful when you just want to operate,
etc. without fine parameter setting.

REMARKS
⋅Even if automatic acceleration/deceleration mode has been selected, inputting the JOG signal (Jog operation), RT signal
(second function selection) or X9 signal (third function selection) during an inverter stop will switch to the normal operation and
give priority to jog operation, second function selection or third function selection. Note that JOG and RT signal input is invalid
even if JOG signal and RT signal are input during operation in automatic acceleration/deceleration mode.
⋅Since acceleration/deceleration is made with the stall prevention operation being activated, the acceleration/deceleration speed
always varies according to the load conditions.
⋅Note that when proper values are set in Pr. 7 and Pr. 8 , acceleration/deceleration time may be shorter than selecting shortest
acceleration/deceleration mode.

PARAMETERS
(2) Optimum acceleration/deceleration mode (Pr. 292 = "3", Pr. 293)
⋅The optimum operation within the rating range where the inverter can be continuously used regardless of the
inverter capability is performed.
Automatically set torque boost and acceleration/deceleration time so that the average current during acceleration/
deceleration is the rated current by the self-learning of the inverter.
It is appropriate for applications such as automatic transfer machine, etc. which is small in load change and is
operated in a predetermined pattern.
⋅
At the initial time when the optimum acceleration/deceleration mode has been selected, operation is performed at
the values set in Pr. 0 Torque boost, Pr. 7 Acceleration time and Pr. 8 Deceleration time. After operation, the average
current and peak current are calculated from the motor current during acceleration/deceleration. These values are
compared with the reference current (initial value is rated inverter current) and calculated, then more appropriate
values are set in Pr. 0, Pr. 7 and Pr. 8.
After that, operation is performed under the conditions of Pr. 0, Pr. 7 and Pr. 8 set, and more appropriate values are
calculated.
Note that the Pr. 0 value will not change under Advanced magnetic flux vector control, Real sensorless vector
control or vector control.
⋅When overvoltage fault (E.OV3) occurs at deceleration, the Pr. 8 setting value becomes 1.4 times larger.
⋅Either acceleration or deceleration can be made in the optimum acceleration/deceleration mode using Pr. 293
Acceleration/deceleration separate selection.
When the setting value is "0" (initial value), both acceleration and deceleration are made in the optimum
acceleration/deceleration mode.
⋅It is inappropriate for machines which change in load and operation conditions.
Optimum values are saved for the next operation. If the operating condition changes before the next operation, a
fault such as overcurrent trip or a lack of acceleration/deceleration may occur.
⋅Storage of parameters
The optimum values of Pr. 0, Pr. 7 and Pr. 8 are written to both the
parameter RAM and EEPROM only three times of acceleration/
deceleration after the optimum acceleration/deceleration mode
has been selected or after the power is switched ON or the
inverter is reset. At of after the fourth attempt, they are not
stored into EEPROM. Hence, after power-on or inverter reset,
the values changed at the third time are valid. Note that the
values changed at the fourth or later time are calculated to
optimum and the values of Pr. 0, Pr. 7 and Pr. 8 are set to RAM,
the values can be stored into EEPROM by reading and writing
the values with the operation panel and parameter unit.
REMARKS
⋅If shortest acceleration/deceleration mode has been selected, inputting the jog signal (jog operation), RT signal (second
function selection) or X9 signal (third function selection) during an inverter stop will switch to the normal operation and give
priority to jog operation, second function selection or third function selection. Note that JOG and RT signal input is invalid even
if JOG signal and RT signal are input during operation in shortest/optimum acceleration/deceleration mode.
⋅Because of the learning system, this mode is not valid at the first operation after the optimum acceleration/deceleration mode is set.
⋅The optimum value are operated on only when acceleration is made from a stop to 30Hz or more or when deceleration is made
from 30Hz or more to stop.
⋅When the motor is not connected or output current is less than 5% of the rated inverter current, optimum acceleration/
deceleration mode will not function.
⋅Even when the optimum acceleration/deceleration mode is selected and Pr. 293 = "1" (acceleration only for the optimum
acceleration/deceleration mode), overvoltage fault (E.OV3) occurrence at deceleration makes the Pr. 8 setting value be set
again longer.

REMARKS
⋅Pr. 61 to Pr. 63 are invalid when Real sensorless vector control or vector control is selected in the shortest acceleration/

⋅Since the Pr. 61 to Pr. 63 settings automatically return to the initial value (9999) if the Pr. 292 setting is changed, set Pr. 292 first
when you need to set Pr. 61 to Pr. 63.

[Electronic thermal relay function operation characteristic (E.THM)] This function detects the overload (overheat) of the
motor, stops the operation of the inverter's output
transistor, and trips. (The operation characteristic is
shown on the left)
⋅Set the rated current [A] of the motor in Pr. 9. (If the
motor has both 50Hz and 60Hz rating and the Pr. 3
Base frequency is set to 60Hz, set the 1.1 times of the
60Hz rated motor current.)
⋅Set "0" in Pr. 9 when you do not want to activate the
electronic thermal relay function, e.g. when using an
external thermal relay with the motor. (Note that the
output transistor protection of the inverter functions
(E.THT).)
⋅When using the Mitsubishi constant-torque motor
1) Set "1" or any of "13" to "18", "50", "53", "54" in
Pr. 71
.
(This provides a 100% continuous torque characteristic
in the low-speed range.)
2) Set the rated current of the motor in Pr. 9.
*1 When 50% of the rated inverter current (current value) is set in Pr. 9
*2 The % value denotes the percentage to the rated inverter current. It
is not the percentage to the motor rated current.
*3 When you set the electronic thermal relay function dedicated to the
Mitsubishi constant-torque motor, this characteristic curve applies
to operation at 6Hz or higher. (Refer to page 187 for the operation
characteristic.)
CAUTION
⋅Fault by electronic thermal relay function is reset by inverter power reset and reset signal input. Avoid unnecessary reset and
power-off.
⋅When using multiple motors with one inverter, or using a multi-pole motor or a specialized motor, provide an external thermal
relay (OCR) between the inverter and motor. And for the setting of the thermal relay, add the line-to line leakage current (refer to
page 52) to the current value on the motor rating plate. For low-speed operation where the cooling capability of the motor
reduces, it is recommended to use a thermal protector or thermistor-incorporated motor.
⋅When the difference between the inverter and motor capacities is large and the setting is small, the protective characteristics of
the electronic thermal relay function will be deteriorated. In this case, use an external thermal relay.
⋅Since a thermal protector is built in a motor dedicated for vector control (SF-V5RU), set "0" in Pr. 9 to use the motor
⋅Electronic thermal relay may not function when 5% or less of inverter rated current is set to electronic thermal relay setting.

REMARKS
⋅The RT signal acts as the second function selection signal and makes the other second functions valid. (Refer to page 235)

(5) External thermal relay input (OH signal)
(6) PTC thermistor input (PTC signal)
Built-in PTC thermistor of the motor can be input to the PTC signal (AU terminal).
⋅For the terminal used for PTC signal input, assign the function by setting "63" in Pr. 184 AU terminal function selection
and also set the AU/PTC switchover switch to the PTC terminal function. (The initial setting is the AU terminal
function.)
⋅If a motor overheat state is detected for more than 10s according to the input from the PTC thermistor, the inverter
trips and outputs the PTC thermal fault signal (E.PTC).
External thermal relay input
connection example
⋅To protect the motor against overheat, use the OH signal when using an external
thermal relay or the built-in thermal protector of the motor.
⋅When the thermal relay operates, the inverter trips and outputs the fault signal
(E.OHT).
⋅For the terminal used for OH signal input, assign the function by setting "7" in any
of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection)
⋅A thermal protector is provided for a vector control dedicated motor (SF-V5RU).
* Assign OH (external thermal input) signal to the CS terminal.
(Pr. 186 = "7")
Connect a 2W1kΩ resistor between the terminal PC and
CS(OH).
Install the resistor pushing it against the bottom part of the
terminal block so as to avoid a contact with other cables.
Refer to page 231 for details of Pr. 186 CS terminal function
selection.
CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set
parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.

⋅The input specifications of the PTC thermistor
are shown on the right.

CAUTION
⋅
When the PTC signal was not assigned to Pr. 184 and the AU/PTC switchover switch was set to the PTC terminal function, the
function assigned to the AU terminal is always OFF. Reversely, when the PTC signal was assigned to Pr. 184 and the AU/PTC
switchover switch was set to the AU terminal function, a PTC thermal fault (E.PTC) occurs since the function is always in a
motor overheat state.
⋅When you want to input a current, assign the AU signal to the other signal.
⋅When terminal assignment is changed, the other functions may be affected. Set parameter after confirming the function of the
AU terminal.

•What is offline auto tuning?
When performing Advanced magnetic flux vector control, Real sensorless vector control or vector control, the
motor can be run with the optimum operating characteristics by automatically measuring the motor constants
(offline auto tuning) even when each motor constants differs, other manufacturer's motor is used, or the wiring
length is long.

PARAMETERS
(1) Before performing offline auto tuning
Check the following before performing offline auto tuning.
·Make sure Advanced magnetic flux vector control (Pr. 80, Pr. 81), Real sensorless vector control or vector control
(Pr. 800) is selected.
·A motor should be connected. Note that the motor should be at a stop at a tuning start.
· The motor capacity should be equal to or one rank lower than the inverter capacity. (note that the capacity is 0.4kW
or higher)
·
Motors such as high-slip motor, high-speed motor and special motor cannot be tuned. (The maximum frequency is 120Hz.)
·Even if tuning is performed without motor running (Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status = "1"), the motor may run slightly.
Therefore, fix the motor securely with a mechanical brake, or before tuning, make sure that there will be no
problem in safety if the motor runs. (Caution is required especially in vertical lift applications). Note that if the motor
runs slightly, tuning performance is unaffected.
·
Note the following when selecting offline auto tuning performed with motor running (
Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status
= "101").
Torque is not enough during tuning.
The motor may be run at nearly its rated speed.
The mechanical brake is open.
No external force is applied to rotate the motor.
·Offline auto tuning will not be performed properly if it is performed with a surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-
H/FR-BMF-H) connected to the 55K or lower and sine wave filter (MT-BSL/BSC) connected to the 75K or higher
between the inverter and motor. Remove it before starting tuning.
·When exercising vector control, use the encoder that is coupled directly to the motor shaft without looseness.
Speed ratio should be 1:1.
POINT
·This function is valid only when a value other than "9999" is set in Pr. 80 and Pr. 81 and Advanced magnetic flux
vector control, Real sensorless vector control or vector control is selected.
·You can copy the offline auto tuning data (motor constants) to another inverter with the PU (FR-DU07/FR-PU07).
·Even when motors (other manufacturer's motor, SF-JRC, SF-TH, etc.) other than Mitsubishi standard motor (SF-
JR 0.4kW or higher), high efficiency motor (SF-HR 0.4kW or higher), Mitsubishi constant-torque motor (SF-JRCA
4P, SF-HRCA 0.4kW to 55kW) and vector control dedicated motor (SF-V5RU (1500r/min series)) are used or the
wiring length is long (30m or more as a reference), using the offline auto tuning function runs the motor with the
optimum operating characteristics.
·Tuning is enabled even when a load is connected to the motor. (As the load is lighter, tuning accuracy is higher.
Tuning accuracy does not change even if the inertia is large.)
·For the offline auto tuning, you can select either the motor non-rotation mode (Pr. 96 = "1") or rotation mode (Pr. 96
= "101").
·The rotation mode has higher tuning accuracy than the non-rotation mode.
·Reading/writing/copy of motor constants tuned by offline auto tuning are enabled.
·The offline auto tuning status can be monitored with the PU (FR-DU07/FR-PU07/FR-PU04).
· Do not connect a surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H/FR-BMF-H) to the 55K or lower and sine wave filter (MT-
BSL/BSC) to the 75K or higher between the inverter and motor.

(2) Setting
1) Select the Advanced magnetic flux vector control, Real sensorless vector control or vector control
(refer to page 92 )
.
2) Set "1" or "101" in Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status .
· When the setting is "1" . . . . . . . . Tuning is performed without motor running.
It takes approximately 25 to 120s * until tuning is completed.
(Excitation noise is produced during tuning.)
*Tuning time differs according to the inverter capacity and motor type.
· When the setting is "101" . . . . . . Tuning is performed with motor running.
It takes approximately 40s until tuning is completed.
The motor runs at nearly its rated frequency.
3) Set the rated motor current (initial value is rated inverter current) in
Pr. 9 Electronic thermal O/L relay (refer to page 183 )
.
4) Set the rated voltage of motor (initial value is 200V/400V) in
Pr. 83 Rated motor voltage
and rated frequency of motor
(initial value is 60Hz) in
Pr. 84 Rated motor frequency
.
(For a Japanese standard motor, etc. which has both 50Hz and 60Hz rated values, set 200V/60Hz or 400V/60Hz).)
For vector control dedicated motor SF-V5RU1 / V5RU3 / V5RU4, set as the following table.
5) Set Pr. 71 Applied motor according to the motor used.
* For other settings of Pr. 71 , refer to page 187.

SF-V5RU4-3.7kW, 7.5kW 150V 16.67Hz
SF-V5RU4-other than the above 160V
REMARKS
· When using the vector control dedicated motor SF-V5RU (1500r/min series) and SF-THY, setting 33 and 34 in Pr. 71
selects internal constants appropriate for dedicated motors. Therefore, Pr. 83 and Pr. 84 settings are unnecessary.
· Perform auto tuning for SF-V5RU (except for 1500 r/min series) with setting 13 or 14 in Pr. 71 ( For perform auto tuning,
set Pr. 83 and Pr. 84)
· When Pr. 11 DC injection brake operation time = "0" or Pr.12 DC injection brake operation voltage = "0," offline auto tuning is
performed at the initial value of Pr. 11 or Pr. 12.
· When the positioning control is selected (Pr. 800 = "3" or "5" (when MC signal is OFF)), offline auto tuning is not performed.

(3) Execution of tuning
1)When performing PU operation, press / of the operation panel.
For External operation, turn ON the start command (STF signal or STR signal). Tuning starts.
2)Monitor is displayed on the operation panel (FR-DU07) and parameter unit (FR-PU07/FR-PU04) during tuning as below.
· Reference: Offline auto tuning time (when the initial setting is set)
CAUTION
· Before performing tuning, check the monitor display of the operation panel (FR-DU07) or parameter unit (FR-PU04/FR-
PU07) if the inverter is in the state ready for tuning. (Refer to 2) below) When the start command is turned ON under V/F
control, the motor starts.
REMARKS
· Satisfy the required inverter start conditions to start offline auto tuning. For example, stop the input of MRS signal.
· To force tuning to end, use the MRS or RES signal or press of the operation panel.
(Turning the start signal (STF signal or STR signal) OFF also ends tuning.)
· During offline auto tuning, only the following I/O signals are valid: (initial value)
· Input signals <valid signal> STOP, OH, MRS, RT, CS, RES, STF, STR
· Output terminal RUN, OL, IPF, FM, AM, A1B1C1
Note that the progress status of offline auto tuning is output in fifteen steps from AM and FM when speed and output
frequency are selected.
· Do not perform ON/OFF switching of the second function selection signal (RT) during execution of offline auto tuning. Auto
tuning is not executed properly.
· Setting offline auto tuning (Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status = "1 or 101") will make pre-excitation invalid.
CAUTION
· When selecting offline auto tuning performed with motor running (Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status = "101"), caution must be
taken since the motor runs.
· Since the RUN signal turns ON when tuning is started, caution is required especially when a sequence which releases a
mechanical brake by the RUN signal has been designed.
· When executing offline auto tuning, input the run command after switching ON the main circuit power (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3) of
the inverter.
·While Pr. 79 = "7," turn the X12 signal ON to tune in the PU operation mode.

This operation resets the offline auto tuning and the PU's monitor display returns to the normal indication.
(Without this operation, next operation cannot be started.)
4)If offline auto tuning ended in error (see the table below), motor constants are not set.
Perform an inverter reset and restart tuning.
5)When tuning is ended forcibly by pressing or turning OFF the start signal (STF or STR) during tuning, offline
auto tuning does not end properly. (The motor constants have not been set.)
Perform an inverter reset and restart tuning.
6)When using the motor corresponding to the following specifications and conditions, reset Pr. 9 Electronic thermal O/
L relay as below after tuning is completed.
a)When the rated power specifications of the motor is 200/220V (400/440V) 60Hz, set 1.1 times rated motor
current value in Pr.9.
b)When performing motor protection from overheat using a PTC thermistor or motor with temperature detector
such as Klixon, set "0" (motor overheat protection by the inverter is invalid) in Pr. 9.
REMARKS
· The motor constants measured once in the offline auto tuning are stored as parameters and their data are held until the
offline auto tuning is performed again.
· Changing Pr. 96 setting from "3 or 103" after tuning completion will invalidate the tuning data. In this case, tune again.

93 Calculation error
A motor is not connected.
Check the motor wiring and make setting
again.
CAUTION
· An instantaneous power failure occurring during tuning will result in a tuning error.
After power is restored, the inverter goes into the normal operation mode. Therefore, when STF (STR) signal is ON, the
motor runs in the forward (reverse) rotation.
· Any alarm occurring during tuning is handled as in the ordinary mode. Note that if a fault retry has been set, retry is ignored.
· The set frequency monitor displayed during the offline auto tuning is 0Hz.
CAUTION
Note that the motor may start running suddenly.
When the offline auto tuning is used in vertical lift application, e.g. a lifter, it may drop due to insufficient torque.

4.13.4 Online auto tuning (Pr. 95, Pr. 574)
(1) Start-time online auto tuning (Pr. 95 = "1")
· By quickly tuning the motor constants at a start, high accuracy operation unaffected by the motor temperature and
stable operation with high torque down to ultra low speed can be performed.
· Make sure Advanced magnetic flux vector control (Pr. 80, Pr. 81), Real sensorless vector control or vector control (Pr.
800 ) is selected.
· Before performing online auto tuning, perform offline auto tuning without fail.
<Operation method>
1) Refer to page 189 to perform offline auto tuning.
2) Check that "3" or "103" (offline auto tuning completion) is set in Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status.
3) Set "1" (start-time online auto tuning) in Pr. 95 Online auto tuning selection.
Online auto tuning is performed from the next starting.
4) Before starting operation, check that the following parameters have been set.
5) When performing PU operation, press / of the operation panel.
For External operation, turn ON the run command (STF signal or STR signal).
When online auto tuning is selected under Advanced magnetic flux vector control, Real sensorless vector control
or vector control, excellent torque accuracy is provided by temperature compensation even if the secondary
resistance value of the motor varies with the rise of the motor temperature.

CAUTION
· For using start-time online auto tuning in elevator, examine the utilization of a brake sequence for the brake opening timing at a
start. Though the tuning ends in about a maximum of 500ms after a start, torque is not provided fully during that period.
Therefore, note that there may be a possibility of drop due to gravity.
It is recommended to perform tuning using a start time tuning signal (X28). (Refer to page 201.)

(2) Magnetic flux observer (normal tuning) (Pr. 95 = "2")
· When exercising vector control using a motor with encoder, it is effective for torque accuracy improvement.
The current flowing in the motor and the inverter output voltage are used to estimate/observe the magnetic flux in
the motor.
The magnetic flux of the motor is always (including during operation) detected with high accuracy so that an
excellent characteristic is provided regardless of the change in the temperature of the secondary resistance.
· Vector control (Pr. 80, Pr. 81, Pr. 800) should be selected. (Refer to page 92.)
CAUTION
· For the SF-V5RU, SF-JR (with encoder), SF-HR (with encoder), SF-JRCA (with encoder) or SF-HRCA (with encoder), it is not
necessary to perform offline auto tuning to select adaptive magnetic flux observer. (Note that it is necessary to perform offline
auto tuning for the wiring length resistance to be reflected on the control when the wiring length is long (30m or longer as
reference)).
REMARKS
· Online auto tuning does not operate if the MRS signal is input, if the preset speed is less than the Pr. 13 Starting frequency (V/F
control or Advanced magnetic flux vector control), or if the starting conditions of the inverter are not satisfied, e.g. inverter error.
· Online auto tuning does not operate during deceleration or at a restart during DC brake operation.
· Invalid for jog operation.
· Automatic restart after instantaneous power failure overrides when automatic restart after instantaneous power failure is selected.
(Start-time online auto tuning is not performed at frequency search.)
Perform online auto tuning at a stop with the X28 signal when using automatic restart after instantaneous power failure together.
(Refer to the following for details.)
· Zero current detection and output current detection are valid during online auto tuning.
· The RUN signal is not output during online auto tuning. The RUN signal turns ON at a start.
· If the period from an inverter stop to a restart is within 4s, start-time tuning is performed but the tuning results are not reflected.

(3) Start-time online auto tuning from external terminal (X28 signal, Y39 signal)
· By turning ON the start-time tuning signal (X28) before the
start signal (STF or STR) turns ON (at a stop), online tuning
is performed and a starting delay after start signal turns ON
due to tuning can be avoided.
· Perform offline auto tuning and set "1" (start-time tuning) in
Pr. 95.
· When the start-time tuning completion signal (Y39) is OFF,
start-time tuning with the X28 signal is performed.
· Start-time tuning ends within 500ms maximum.
· When using the X28 signal, set "28" in Pr. 178 to Pr. 189
(input terminal function selection) and assign functions to the
input terminal.
· When using the Y39 signal, set "39 (positive logic) or 139
(negative logic)" in Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function
selection) and assign functions to the output terminal.
REMARKS
· Start-time tuning is performed when the start signal is turned ON during zero speed control also.
· The Y39 signal is in ON status while secondary magnetic flux exists after the motor stop.
· While the Y39 signal is ON, the X28 signal is not valid.
· The STF, STR signals are valid after completion of the start-time tuning.
· The following output terminals (initial value) are valid during online auto tuning:
IPF, A1B1C1
· Tuning is invalid during V/F control.
CAUTION
· Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) or Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal

The DC injection brake can be operated at a motor stop to adjust the stop timing and braking torque.
Zero speed control can be selected during Real sensorless vector control and either zero speed control or
servo lock can be selected under vector control.
In DC injection brake operation, DC voltage is directly applied to the motor to prevent the motor shaft from
rotating when a motor decelerates to stop. While, in zero speed control, vector control is performed to maintain
0r/min. In either control, the motor will not return to the original position if the motor shaft rotates due to
external force.
The motor shaft position is maintained with servo lock. The motor will return to the original position if the motor
shaft rotates due to external force.

⋅Use Pr. 12 to set the percentage to the power supply voltage. (This parameter is not used during zero speed control
or servo lock.)
⋅When Pr. 12 = "0%", the DC injection brake is not operated. (At a stop, the motor coasts.)

(4) Brake operation selection during Real sensorless vector control (Pr. 850 = "0, 1")
⋅You can select DC injection brake (initial value) or zero speed control for brake operation during Real sensorless
vector control.
When Pr. 850 = "1", zero speed control is exercised when the frequency reaches or decreases below the frequency
set in Pr. 10.
When Pr. 11 = "0.1 to 10s"
When Pr. 11 = "8888"
(1) Operation frequency setting (Pr. 10)
⋅When the frequency at which the DC injection brake (zero speed control,
servo lock) operates is set in Pr. 10, the DC injection brake (zero speed
control, servo lock) is operated when this frequency is reached during
deceleration.
⋅At the Pr. 10 setting of "9999", the DC injection brake (zero speed control,
servo lock) is operated when deceleration is made to the frequency set in
Pr. 13 Starting frequency.
(2) Operation time setting (X13 signal, Pr. 11)
⋅Use Pr. 11 to set the duration period the DC injection brake (zero speed
control, servo lock) is applied.
⋅When the motor does not stop due to large load moment (J), increasing the
setting produces an effect.
⋅When Pr. 11 = "0s", the DC injection brake (zero speed control, servo lock)
is not operated. (At a stop, the motor coasts.)
⋅When Pr. 11 = "8888", the DC injection brake (zero speed control, servo
lock) is applied when X13 signal is turned ON.
⋅For the terminal used for X13 signal input, set "13" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr.
189 to assign the function. (Refer to page 231)
REMARKS
⋅For the 5.5K and 7.5K, when the Pr. 12 setting is as below, changing the Pr. 71 Applied motor setting changes the Pr. 12 setting
automatically, it is not necessary to change the Pr. 12 setting.
(a) When Pr. 12 is 4% (initial value)
The Pr. 12 setting is automatically changed to 2% if the Pr. 71 value is changed from the value selecting the standard motor
(0, 2 to 8, 20, 23, 24, 40, 43, 44) to the value selecting the constant torque motor (1, 13 to 18, 50, 53, 54).
(b) When Pr. 12 is 2%
The Pr. 12 setting is automatically changed to 4% (initial value) if the Pr. 71 value is changed from the value selecting the
constant torque motor (1, 13 to 18, 50, 53, 54) to the value selecting the standard motor (0, 2 to 8, 20, 23, 24, 40, 43, 44).
⋅Even if the Pr.12 setting is increased, braking torque is limited so that the output current is within the rated inverter current.
REMARKS
⋅When the X13 signal is ON with Pr. 11 = "8888", zero speed control is activated regardless of setting of Pr. 850 Brake operation
selection.
⋅When restarting from brake operation during Real sensorless vector control, set "1" (zero speed control) in Pr. 850. When the
setting value is "0" (DC injection brake), it may take approx. 2s until frequency is actually output from when the start command
is input.

PARAMETERS
(5) Magnetic flux decay output shutoff (Pr. 850 = "2")
⋅Frequent starts/stops (inching) under Real sensorless vector control may cause an inverter failure or create a
difference in operation with the motor. The reason is that some magnetic flux is left in the motor at shutoff of the
inverter output. If this is the case, set Pr. 850 ="2" to select the magnetic flux decay output shutoff, and decay the
magnetic flux before shutting off the output at a stop.
⋅Turning OFF the start command decelerates the speed. Then, when an estimated speed is lower than Pr. 10 DC
injection brake operation frequency, inverter starts the magnetic flux decay output shutoff function.
⋅When using brake sequence, the inverter starts the magnetic flux decay output shutoff function at 0.5Hz or Pr. 13
Starting frequency (whichever is lower) during deceleration.
⋅During magnetic flux decay output shutoff, the torque decreases. Set a mechanical brake to be activated during
magnetic flux decay output shutoff.
⋅When the MC is provided on the inverter output side, open the MC after magnetic flux decay processing time (refer
to the following) has passed.
⋅The magnetic flux decay output shutoff function is stopped at restart or when tuning ON the Pre-excitation signal

Motor capacity (Pr. 80 setting) 2.2kW or lower 3.7kW to 11kW 15kW to 30kW 37kW to 55kW 75kW or higher
Magnetic flux decay processing time 250ms 500ms 800ms 900ms 1100ms
REMARKS
⋅When some other factor affecting output shutoff (such as inverter fault or MRS signal ON) occurs during the magnetic flux
decay output shutoff function, the magnetic flux decay output shutoff function is immediately stopped and shuts off the output.
⋅Regardless of the Pr. 850 setting, turning ON the X74 (magnetic flux decay output shutoff signal) starts the magnetic flux decay
output shutoff. To operate the magnetic flux decay output shutoff function by turning ON the X74 signal, set "74" in any of Pr. 178
to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to assign the function. (Refer to page 231)
CAUTION
⋅Voltage is output during magnetic flux decay processing. Take caution to avoid an electrical shock.
⋅If the timing of mechanical brake opening is early, motor shaft may be forced to turn by a gravity drop or external force. If the
timing of mechanical brake opening is late, overcurrent, stall prevention operation or electronic thermal relay function may be
activated. Use output frequency detection signal (FU) or output current detection signal (Y12) to perform the mechanical brake
opening suitable for the machine.

(7) Pre-excitation signal (LX signal)
⋅When the LX signal is turned ON under Real sensorless vector control or vector control, pre-excitation (zero speed

⋅For the terminal used for LX signal input, set "23" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 186 to assign the function.
Pr. 802 Setting Pre-excitation Description
0 (initial value) Zero speed control
Even under load, an attempt is made to maintain 0r/min to keep the motor shaft stopped. Note that
if the shaft is overcome and turned by external force, it does not return to the original position.
Position control is not exercised and only speed control is carried out to perform operation.
1 Servo lock
Even under load, an attempt is made to maintain the motor shaft position. Note that if the shaft is
turned by external force, it returns to the original position after the external force has gone away.
Since position control is exercised, you can adjust this position loop gain using
Pr. 422 Position loop gain

CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set
parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.
⋅Performing pre-excitation (LX signal and X13 signal) under torque control (Real sensorless vector control) may start the motor
running at a low speed even when the start command (STF or STR) is not input.The motor may run also at a low speed when
the speed limit value=0 with a start command input. Perform pre-excitation after making sure that there will be no problem in
safety if the motor runs.
⋅Although FWD/REV of the operation panel is not lit during pre-excitation, note that voltage is applied to the motor.
⋅Note that when offline auto tuning (Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status = "1 or 101") is performed during pre-excitation, offline auto
tuning is not executed but the motor starts.
CAUTION
Do not set
Pr. 11
to "0, 8888" and
Pr. 12
to "0" under orientation operation. Otherwise, the motor will not stop properly.
As stop holding torque is not produced, install a mechanical brake.
After the machine stops fully and the mechanical brake is applied, switch the LX signal (pre-excitation) OFF.

<Connection and operation example>
To ensure accurate positioning at the upper limit etc. of
a lift, stop-on-contact control causes a mechanical
brake to be closed while the motor is developing a
holding torque to keep the load in contact with a
mechanical stopper etc.
This function suppresses vibration which is liable to
occur when the load is stopped upon contact in vertical

PARAMETERS
(1) Set stop-on-contact control
⋅Make sure that the inverter is in External operation mode. (Refer to page 313 )
⋅Select either Real sensorless vector control or Advanced magnetic flux vector control.
⋅Set "1, 3, 11 or 13" in Pr. 270 Stop-on contact/load torque high-speed frequency control selection .
⋅Set output frequency during stop-on-contact control in Pr. 6 Multi-speed setting (low speed).
The frequency should be as low as possible (about 2Hz). If it is set to more than 30Hz, the operating frequency will
be 30Hz.
⋅When both the RT and RL signals are switched ON, the inverter enters the stop-on-contact mode, in which operation
is performed at the frequency set in Pr. 6 independently of the preceding speed.
⋅Setting Pr. 270 = "11 or 13" disables E.OLT (stall prevention stop) during stop-on-contact control (with both RL and RT
signals ON).
⋅To input the RT signal, set "3" in any of Pr.178 to Pr.184 (Input terminal function selection) to assign the function to the
terminal. To input the RL signal, set "0" in any of Pr.178 to Pr.184 (Input terminal function selection) to assign the function
to the terminal.
(2) Function switching of stop-on-contact control selection
* When RL and RT are ON, Pr. 49 Second stall prevention operation frequency is invalid.
CAUTION
⋅By increasing the Pr. 275 setting, the low-speed (stop-on-contact) torque increases, but overcurrent fault (E.OCT) may occur or
the machine may oscillate in a stop-on-contact state.
⋅The stop-on-contact function is different from servo-lock function, and if used to stop or hold a load for an extended period, this
function can cause the motor to overheat.
After a stop, immediately reset this function and use a mechanical brake to hold the load.
⋅Under the following operating conditions, the stop-on-contact function is invalid:
PU operation (Pr. 79) · JOG operation (JOG signal) · PU+external operation (Pr. 79) · PID control function operation (Pr. 128)
· Remote setting function operation (Pr. 59) · Automatic acceleration/deceleration (Pr. 292) · Start time tuning · Orientation
control function operation
⋅When performing stop-on-contact control during encoder feedback control, encoder feedback control is invalid due to a mode
shift to the stop-on-contact control mode.

Motor brake and stop operation
(1) Set the brake sequence mode
⋅Select either Real sensorless vector control, vector control (speed control) or Advanced magnetic flux vector control.
The brake sequence function is valid only when the External operation mode, External/PU combined operation mode
1 or Network operation mode is selected.
⋅
Set "7 or 8" (brake sequence mode) in Pr. 292 .
To ensure more complete sequence control, it is recommended to set "7" (brake opening completion signal input) in
Pr. 292 .
⋅Set "15" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) and assign the brake opening completion signal
(BRI) to the input terminal.
⋅Set "20 (positive logic)" or "120 (negative logic)" in any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection) and
assign the brake opening request signal (BOF) to the output terminal.
(2) With brake opening completion signal input
(Pr. 292
= "7")
⋅When the start signal is input to the inverter, the inverter starts running. When the internal speed command reaches
the value set in Pr. 278 and the output current is not less than the value set in Pr. 279 , the inverter outputs the brake
opening request signal (BOF) after the time set in Pr. 280 has elapsed.
When the time set in Pr. 281 elapses after the brake opening completion signal (BRI) was activated, the inverter
increases the output frequency to the set speed.
⋅When the inverter decelerates to the frequency set in Pr.282 during deceleration, the inverter turns OFF the BOF
signal and decelerates further to the frequency set in Pr.278. After electromagnetic brake operation completes and
inverter recognizes the turn OFF of BRI signal, the inverter holds the frequency set in Pr.278 for the time set in
Pr.283. And after the time set in Pr.283 passes, the inverter decelerates again. The inverter finally stops when its
frequency reaches to Pr.13 Starting frequency setting or 0.5Hz, whichever is lower.
(3) Without brake opening completion signal input
(Pr. 292
= "8")
⋅
When the start signal is input to the inverter, the inverter starts running. When the internal speed command reaches
the value set in Pr. 278 and the output current is not less than the value set in Pr. 279 , the inverter outputs the brake
opening request signal (BOF) after the time set in Pr. 280 has elapsed.
When the time set in Pr. 281 elapses after the BOF signal is output, the inverter increases the output frequency to the
set speed.
⋅When the inverter decelerates to the frequency set in Pr.282 during deceleration, the inverter turns OFF the BOF
signal and decelerates further to the frequency set in Pr.278. After the turn OFF of BOF signal, the inverter holds the
frequency set in Pr.278 for the time set in Pr.283. And after the time set in Pr.283 passes, the inverter decelerates
again. The inverter finally stops when its frequency reaches to Pr.13 Starting frequency setting or 0.5Hz, whichever is

PARAMETERS
(4) Protective functions
If any of the following errors occurs in the brake sequence mode, the inverter results in a fault, trips, and turns OFF the
brake opening request signal (BOF).
REMARKS
⋅Even if brake sequence mode has been selected, inputting the jog signal (jog operation), RT signal (second function selection)
or X9 signal (third function selection) during an inverter stop will switch to the normal operation and give priority to jog operation
or second and third function selection. Note that JOG and RT signal input is invalid even if JOG signal and RT signal are input
during automatic acceleration/deceleration operation.
Fault Display Description
E.MB1 (Detection frequency) - (output frequency) > Pr. 285 during encoder feedback control
When Pr. 285 Overspeed detection frequency = 9999, overspeed is not detected.
E.MB2 Deceleration is not normal during deceleration operation from the set frequency to the frequency set in
Pr. 282. (when Pr. 284 =1) (except stall prevention operation)
E.MB3 Brake opening request signal (BOF) turned ON though the motor is at a stop. (gravity drop prevention function)
E.MB4 Although more than 2s have elapsed after the start command (forward or reverse rotation) is input, the brake
opening request signal (BOF) does not turn ON.
E.MB5 Although more than 2s have elapsed after the brake opening request signal (BOF) turned ON, the brake opening
completion signal (BRI) does not turn ON.
E.MB6 Though the inverter had turned ON the brake opening request signal (BOF), the brake opening completion signal
(BRI) turned OFF midway.
E.MB7 Although more than 2s have elapsed after the brake opening request signal (BOF) turned OFF at a stop, the
brake opening completion signal (BRI) does not turn OFF.
CAUTION
⋅During deceleration, inverter output is shut OFF when the frequency reaches Pr.13 Starting frequency or 0.5Hz, whichever is lower.
For Pr. 278 Brake opening frequency, set Pr. 13 or a frequency equal to or higher than 0.5Hz.
⋅Overspeed detection (Pr. 285) is valid under encoder feedback control (used with the FR-A7AP/FR-A7AL (option)) even if a value
other than "7 or 8" is set in Pr. 292.
⋅Setting Pr. 278 Brake opening frequency too high activates the stall prevention and may cause E.MB4.
⋅If the sum of the time between Pr. 13 Starting frequency and Pr. 278
Brake opening frequency + Pr. 280 Brake opening current detection time
is more than 2s, E.MB4 occurs.

*6 For the differential line driver, set the terminating resistor selection switch to ON position (initial status) to use. (Refer to page 34.)
Note that the terminating resistor switch should be set to OFF position when sharing the same encoder with other unit (NC, etc) or a terminating
resistor is connected to other unit.
For the complementary, set the switch to OFF position.
*7 For terminal compatibility of the FR-JCBL, FR-V7CBL and FR-A7AP, refer to page 36.
*8 A separate power supply of 5V/12V/15V/24V is necessary according to the encoder power specification. Make the voltage of the external power
supply the same as the encoder output voltage, and connect the external power supply between PG and SD.
When performing encoder feedback control and vector control together, an encoder and power supply can be shared.
*9 When a stop position command is input from outside, a plug-in option FR-A7AX is necessary. Refer to page 223 for external stop position

Connect a 2W1kΩ resistor between the terminal PC and CS(OH).
Install the resistor pushing it against the bottom part of the terminal block so as to avoid a contact with
other cables.
<Setting>
If the orientation command signal (X22) is turned ON during operation after the various
parameters have been set, the speed will decelerate to the "orientation switchover speed". After the "orientation stop

(3) Selecting stop position command (Pr. 350 Stop position command selection )
⋅Select either the internal stop position command (Pr. 356) or the external stop position command (16-bit data using
the FR-A7AX).
2)External stop position command (Pr. 350 = "1")
Mount the option FR-A7AX and set a stop position using 16-bit data (binary input).
⋅ The value set in Pr. 360 16-bit data selection should be the number of stop positions less 1.
Pr. 350 Setting Stop Position Command Source
0 Internal stop position command (Pr. 356: 0 to 16383)
1 External stop position command (FR-A7AX) 16-bit data
9999
(Initial value) Orientation control invalid
1)Internal stop position command (Pr. 350 = "0")
The value set in Pr. 356 is the stop position.
When the number of encoder pulses is 1024p/r, one
revolution of the encoder is divided into 4096 positions,
i.e. 360°/4096 pulses = 0.0879°/pulses per address, as
shown on the right. The stop positions (addresses) are
indicated in parentheses.
Pr. 360 Setting Description
0 External position command is invalid (speed command or torque command with the FR-A7AX)
1
Position command direct input
The 16-bit digital signal from the FR-A7AX is directly serves as stop position command.
<Example>
When the Pr. 369 Number of encoder pulses setting is 1024, stop position command from 0 to 4095 can be
directly input using the FR-A7AX and input digital signal of 2048 (H800) to stop the motor at 180° position. The
command more than 4096 is considered as 4095.
2 to 127
Set the stop position command dividing up to 128 stop positions at regular intervals.
If the external stop command entered is greater than the setting, the stop positions are the same as those in
the maximum external stop command value.
<Example>
When the number of stop positions is 90 (divided at intervals of 4°), 90 - 1 = 89. Hence, set "89".
[Example] When Pr. 369 = "1024" [Example 2] 8 stop positions [Example 3] 120 stop positions
Pr. 360 = "1" Pr. 360 = "7" Pr. 360 = "119"
CAUTION
⋅Values in parentheses indicate binary data entered from the terminals. Even if the position pulse monitor (Pr. 52 DU/PU main
display data selection = 19) is selected, the data monitored is not the number of stop positions but is 0 to 65535 pulses.
⋅FR-A7AX parameters (Pr. 300 to Pr. 305) are invalid. (Valid when Pr. 360 = "0")
⋅Terminal DY (data read timing input signal) is invalid during vector control. (The position data is downloaded at the start of
orientation.)
⋅Internal stop position command is given even if "1" (external stop position command) is set in Pr. 350 when an option card (FR-

(6) Orientation operation (under V/F control, Advanced magnetic flux vector control)
Orientation during running
1) When the orientation command (X22) is input, the motor speed decreases to the orientation speed set in Pr. 351
Orientation speed . (Pr. 351 initial value: 2Hz)
2) After the speed reaches the orientation speed, the speed decreases to the creep speed set in Pr. 352 Creep speed
as soon as the current position pulse reaches the creep switchover position set in Pr. 353 Creep switchover position
(Pr. 352 initial value:0.5Hz, Pr. 353 initial value: 511)
3) Moreover, as soon as the current position pulse reaches the set position loop switchover position in Pr. 354 Position
loop switchover position , control is changed to position loop. (Pr. 354 initial value: 96)
4) After switching to position loop, the inverter decelerates and stops with DC injection brake as soon as the current
position pulse has reached the DC injection brake start position set in Pr. 355 DC injection brake start position. (Pr. 355
initial value: 5)
5) When the position pulse has stopped within the in-position zone set in Pr. 357 Orientation in-position zone , the
orientation complete signal (ORA) is output after the completion signal output delay time set in Pr. 363 Completion
signal output delay time has elapsed. If the motor does not stop within the in-position zone due to external force, etc.,
the orientation complete signal is turned OFF after the time set in Pr. 363 Completion signal output delay time has
elapsed. (Pr. 357 initial value: 5)
6) If the orientation is not completed continuously for the time set in Pr. 365 Orientation limit after passing the creep
switchover position, the orientation fault signal (ORM) is output.
7) When the motor stops before the position pulse reaching the in-position zone due to external force after orientation
start and orientation complete signal (ORA) is not output, orientation fault signal (ORM) is output after the time set in
encoder stop check time set in Pr. 364 Encoder stop check time has elapsed. Moreover, the orientation complete signal
(ORA) is turned OFF after the time set in Pr. 363 Completion signal output delay time has elapsed if the position pulse
is outside the in-position zone due to external force, etc. after outputting the orientation complete signal (ORA), and
the orientation fault signal (ORM) is output if the orientation has not completed within the time set in Pr. 364 Encoder
stop check time .
8) When the start signal (STF or STR) is turned OFF with the orientation command ON after outputting the orientation
complete signal (ORA) and orientation fault signal (ORM), the orientation complete signal (ORM) or orientation fault
signal (ORM) is output again after recheck time set in Pr. 366 Recheck time has elapsed.
9) The orientation complete signal (ORA) and orientation fault signal (ORM) are not output when the orientation
command is OFF.

After turning ON the orientation command (X22), turning ON the start signal will increase the motor speed to the
orientation speed set in Pr. 351 Orientation speed, then orientation operation same as when "orientation during running"
is performed.
Note that, DC injection brake is operated if the position signal is within the DC injection brake start position.

• Read the position data at starting up of DY (refer to the FR-A7AX instruction manual ).
• When the position signal is within the creep switchover position, the speed starts up to the creep speed not to the
orientation speed.
• When the position signal is not within the creep switchover position, the speed starts up to the orientation speed.
• The DC injection brake is operated if the position signal is within the DC injection brake start position.
• 16-bit data with the FR-A7AX is valid only when the DY signal is ON.
CAUTION
• The encoder should be coupled with the motor shaft or main spindle oriented with a speed ratio of 1 to 1 without any mechanical
looseness.
• DC injection brake operates when orientation stop is made. Release the DC injection brake in a time as short as possible (within
several seconds) since continuous operation of the DC injection brake will cause the motor to overheat, leading to burnout.
• Since no servo lock function is available after orientation stop, provide a holding mechanism such as mechanical brake or knock
pin when secure holding of a main spindle is required.
• To ensure correct positioning, the encoder must be set in the proper rotation direction and the A and B phases connected correctly.
• When the pulse signal from the encoder stops due to the encoder signal loss, etc. during orientation, the orientation fault signal
(ORM) may be output.
• When the DC injection brake is set to disabled using parameter for DC injection brake adjustment (voltage, frequency, speed, time)
when performing orientation control, orientation operation cannot be completed. Always set the DC injection brake enabled.
• To terminate orientation, the start signal (STF or STR) must be first switched OFF and the orientation signal (X22) must be
switched OFF. As soon as this orientation signal is switched OFF, orientation control ends.(Depending on the Pr. 358 Servo torque
selection setting, orientation status continues if the orientation signal remains ON even if DC injection brake is released at turning
OFF of the start signal. Therefore, the orientation status of the monitor function is not 0.)
• When retry function of
Pr. 358 Servo torque selection
is selected, the retry operation is performed three times including the first orientation.
• When performing orientation control, make proper setting of Pr. 350 Stop position command selection and Pr. 360 16-bit data selection
(external position command selection). If the values set are incorrect, proper orientation control will not be performed.
• When
Pr. 11 DC injection brake operation time
= "8888" (DC injection brake external selection), DC injection brake does not operate if the
X13 signal is not turned ON. Note that the DC injection brake is applied under orientation control regardless of the X13 signal status.
• When orientation control is exercised, PID control is invalid.

PARAMETERS
Servo torque selection (Pr. 358 )
Valid only under V/F control and Advanced magnetic flux vector control.
1)Servo torque function selection until output of the orientation complete signal
Whether servo torque is available or not is selected using Pr. 358 Servo torque selection. Servo torque is not generated
if the current position pulse is in between the orientation stop position and DC injection brake start position. Although,
the shaft is retained by the DC injection brake, servo torque is generated to return the shaft within the width if the
shaft moves out of the width by external force, etc. Once the orientation complete signal (ORA) is output, the motor
runs according to the setting made in 4).
2)Retry function selection
Select retry function using Pr. 358 Servo torque selection. Note that servo torque function cannot be used together.
When the motor shaft is not stopped within the in-position zone when the motor stop is checked, orientation
operation is performed again by retry function.
With this retry function, three orientations including the first one are performed. More than three times retry
operations are not made. (The orientation fault signal (ORM) is not output during retry operation)
3)Frequency compensation function when the motor stops outside the orientation in-position zone
When the motor stops before entering the in-position zone due to external force, etc., output frequency is increased
to move the shaft to the orientation stop position. The output frequency is gradually increased to the creep speed of
Pr. 352 Creep speed .
Note that retry function cannot be used together.
4)DC injection brake and servo torque selection when the position pulse comes off the in-position zone after output of
the orientation complete signal (ORA)
If the position pulse comes off the orientation in-position width, you can select a setting either fixing a shaft with the
DC injection brake or returning the motor to the orientation stop position with servo torque.
5)Orientation operation end switch operation selection between DC injection brake or servo torque
When ending the orientation operation, turn OFF the start signal (STF or STR), then turn OFF the orientation
command (X22). At this time, you can select when to turn OFF the orientation complete signal (ORA) from between
at turning OFF of the start signal or turning OFF of the orientation command signal.
6)Selection of completion signal OFF or ON when the motor stops outside of the in-position zone after output of the
orientation complete signal (ORA)
You can select the mode to turn OFF the completion signal or keep the completion signal ON (orientation fault signal
(ORM) is not output) when the motor stops outside of the in-position zone.

REMARKS
• When the orientation command is OFF with the start signal ON, the speed accelerates to the command speed.
• When the motor shaft stops outside of the set setting range of stop position, the motor shaft is returned to the stop position by
servo torque function (if enough torque is generated).

Motor brake and stop operation
Position loop gain (Pr. 362 )
When servo torque function is selected using Pr. 358 Servo torque selection , output frequency for generating servo
torque increases to the creep speed of Pr. 352 Creep speed gradually according to the slope set in Pr. 362 Orientation
position loop gain .
Although the operation becomes faster when the value is increased, a machine may hunt, etc.

2Reverse rotation
orientation
Orientation is executed from the reverse rotation direction.
(If the motor is running in forward, orientation is executed from the
reverse rotation direction after deceleration.)
• When the orientation command (X22) is input, the motor speed will
decelerate from the running speed to Pr. 351 Orientation speed.
At the same time, the orientation stop position command will be read in.
(The stop position command is determined by the setting of Pr. 350 and Pr.
360. Refer to the right chart.)
• When the orientation switchover speed is reached, the encoder Z phase
pulse will be confirmed, and the mode will change from speed control to
position control (Pr. 362 Orientation position loop gain ).
• The distance to the orientation stop position is calculated at switching of
the control, and the motor decelerates and stops with a set deceleration
pattern (Pr. 399) and the orientation (servo lock) state will be entered.
• When entered in the Pr. 357 Orientation in-position zone, the orientation
complete signal (ORA) will be output.
• The zero point position (origin) can be moved using Pr. 361 Position shift .
WARNING
If the orientation command (X22) is turned OFF while the start signal is input, the motor will accelerate toward
the speed of the current speed command. Thus, to stop, turn the forward rotation (reverse rotation) signal OFF.
• This method is used to improve the stopping precision and maintain the
mechanical precision when the backlash is large.
• If the motor is running in the forward rotation direction, it will make an
orientation stop with the same method as "orientation from the current
rotation direction".
• If the motor is running in reverse, it will decelerate, the rotation direction
will be changed to forward run, and then orientation stop will be executed.

Servo rigidity adjustment (Pr. 362, Pr. 396 to Pr. 398)
•To increase the servo rigidity *1 during orientation stop using Pr. 396 or Pr. 397 , adjust with the following procedures.
1) Increase the Pr. 362 Orientation position loop gain value to the extent that rocking *2 does not occur during
orientation stop.
2) Increase Pr. 396 and Pr. 397 at the same rate.
Generally adjust Pr. 396 in the range from 10 to 100, and Pr. 397 from 0.1 to 1.0s.
(Note that these do not need to be set to the same rate.)
<Example>
When the Pr. 396 value is multiplied by 1.2, divide the Pr. 397 value by 1.2.
If vibration occurs during orientation stop, the scale cannot be raised any higher.
3) Pr. 398 is the lag/advance compensation gain.
The limit cycle *3 can be prevented by increasing the value, and the running can be stopped stably. However, the
torque in regard to the position deviation will drop, and the motor will stop with deviation.
*1 Servo rigidity: This is the response when a position control loop is configured.
When the servo rigidity is raised, the holding force will increase, the running will stabilize, but vibration will occur easily.
When the servo rigidity is lowered, the holding force will drop, and the setting time will increase.
*2 Rocking: Movement in which return occurs if the stopping position is exceeded.
*3 Limit cycle: This is a phenomenon that generates ± continuous vibration centering on the target position.
• If the motor is running in the reverse rotation direction, it will make an
orientation stop with the same method as "orientation from the current
rotation direction".
• If the motor is running in forward, it will decelerate, the rotation direction
will be changed to reverse run, and then orientation stop will be executed.
CAUTION
• The encoder should be coupled with the motor shaft oriented with a speed ratio of 1 to 1 without any mechanical looseness.
• To ensure correct positioning, the encoder must be set in the proper rotation direction and the A and B phases connected
correctly.
• Orientation may not be completed if the pulse signals are not received from the encoder during orientation due to a break in the
cable or the like.
• To terminate orientation, the start signal (STF or STR) must be first switched OFF and the orientation signal (X22) must be
switched OFF. As soon as this orientation signal is switched OFF, orientation control ends.
• When performing orientation control, make proper setting of Pr. 350 Stop position command selection and Pr. 360 16-bit data selection.
If the values set are incorrect, proper orientation control will not be performed.
• When orientation control is exercised, PID control is invalid.
REMARKS
If "E.ECT" (no encoder signal) is displayed causing the inverter to trip when the orient signal (X22) is ON, check for a break in the
cable of the Z phase of the encoder.
POINT
Application of lag/advance control and PI control
PI control can be applied by setting Pr. 398 to 0. Normally, the lag/advance control is selected. Note that PI control

REMARKS
⋅Same function can be assigned to two or more terminals. In this case, the logic of terminal input is OR.
⋅The priorities of the speed commands are in order of JOG > multi-speed setting (RH, RM, RL, REX) > PID (X14).
⋅When the X10 signal (FR-HC, MT-HC, FR-CV connection - inverter operation enable signal) is not set or when the PU
operation external interlock (X12) signal is not assigned at the Pr. 79 Operation mode selection setting of "7", the MRS signal
shares this function.
⋅Same signal is used to assign multi-speeds (7 speeds) and remote setting. They cannot be set individually.
(Same signal is used since multi-speed (7 speeds) setting and remote setting are not used to set speed at the same time.)
⋅When V/F switching (X18) signal and load pattern selection forward/reverse rotation boost (X17) signal are not assigned, the
RT signal shares this function. (Pr. 81 Number of motor poles = "12, 14, 16, 18, 20")
In this case, V/F control is controlled by the second function.
CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Also
check that wiring is correct, since the terminal name and the signal function became different. Set parameters after confirming

External terminal: Normally closed input
(NC contact input specifications)
Communication: Normally open input
(1) Output shutoff signal (MRS signal)
⋅Turning on the output shutoff signal (MRS) during inverter running shuts
off the output immediately.
⋅Terminal MRS may be used as described below.
(a) When mechanical brake (e.g. electromagnetic brake) is used to stop
motor
The inverter output is shut off when the mechanical brake operates.
(b) To provide interlock to disable operation by the inverter
With the MRS signal ON, the inverter cannot be operated if the start
signal is entered into the inverter.
(c) Coast the motor to a stop
When the start signal is turned OFF, the inverter decelerates the
motor to a stop in the preset deceleration time, but when the MRS
signal is turned ON, the motor coasts to a stop
(2) MRS signal logic inversion (Pr. 17 = "2")
⋅When Pr. 17 is set to "2", the MRS signal (output stop) can be changed
to the normally closed (NC contact) input specification. When the MRS
signal turns ON (opens), the inverter shuts off the output.
(3) Assign a different action for each MRS signal input from communication and external terminal
(
Pr. 17
= "4")
⋅When Pr. 17 is set to "4", the MRS signal from external terminal (output stop) can be changed to the normally
closed (NC contact) input, and the MRS signal from communication can be changed to the normally open (NO
contact) input.
This function is useful to perform operation by communication with MRS signal from external terminal remained

(1) 2-wire type (STF, STR signal)
⋅A two-wire type connection is shown below.
⋅In the initial setting, the forward/reverse rotation signals (STF/STR) are used as start and stop signals. Turn on
either of the forward and reverse rotation signals to start the motor in the corresponding direction. If both are turned
OFF (or on) during operation, the motor decelerates to a stop.
⋅The speed setting signal may either be given by entering 0 to 10VDC across the speed setting input terminal 2-5,
by setting the required values in Pr. 4 to Pr. 6 Multi-speed setting (high, middle, low speeds), etc. (For multi-speed
operation, refer to page 165)
⋅When Pr. 250 is set to any of "1000 to 1100, 8888", the STF signal becomes a start command and the STR signal a
forward/reverse command.
You can select the operation of the start signal (STF/STR).
You can select the stopping method (deceleration to a stop or coasting) when the start signal turns OFF.
You can stop the motor with a mechanical brake, etc. together with switching OFF of the start signal.

...............Specifications differ according to the date assembled. Refer to page 484 to check the SERIAL number.
⋅For the X74 signal, set "74" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) to assign the function.
⋅Operate a mechanical brake after turning X74 signal ON.
⋅When the MC is provided on the inverter output side, turn X74 signal ON and open the MC after magnetic flux decay
operation time (refer to below) has elapsed.
* Maximum time of magnetic flux decay operation
Performing frequent start/stop (inching operation) during Real sensorless vector control may cause an inverter
fault (electronic thermal relay function fault: E.THT, etc) due to residual magnetic flux and an error in monitor
output (running speed, motor torque, load meter, torque command, torque current command, motor output).
In such a case, use magnetic flux decay output shutoff signal (X74) as output shutoff signal.
Turning X74 signal ON shuts off output after decaying motor residual magnetic flux.

REMARKS
⋅When performing operation other than Real sensorless vector control, turning X74 signal ON immediately shuts off inverter
output.
⋅During an automatic restart after instantaneous power failure or start-time online auto tuning under Real sensorless vector
control, turning X74 signal ON immediately shuts off inverter output.
⋅When some other factor affecting output shutoff (inverter alarm, MRS signal ON, etc.) occurs during magnetic flux decay
operation, magnetic flux decay operation is stopped to immediately shut off output.
⋅Pr.850 Brake operation selection is also available to enable the magnetic flux decay output shutoff.
CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set
parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.
⋅Different from MRS signal, voltage is output during magnetic flux decay processing even if X74 signal turns ON. Take care not
to have an electrical shock.
⋅If the timing of mechanical brake opening is early, motor shaft may be forced to turn by a gravity drop or external force. If the
timing of mechanical brake opening is late, overcurrent, stall prevention operation or electronic thermal relay function may be

The inverter output frequency is detected and output to the output signal.
Parameter
Number Name Initial
Value
Setting
Range Description
41 Up-to-frequency sensitivity 10% 0 to 100% Set the level where the SU signal turns ON.
42 Output frequency detection 6Hz 0 to 400Hz Set the frequency where the FU (FB) signal turns
ON.
43 Output frequency detection

in reverse rotation.
9999 Same as Pr. 42 setting
50 Second output frequency
detection 30Hz 0 to 400Hz Set the frequency where the FU2 (FB2) signal turns
ON.
116 Third output frequency
detection 60Hz 0 to 400Hz Set the frequency where the FU3 (FB3) signal turns
ON.
865 Low speed detection 1.5Hz 0 to 400Hz Set the frequency where the LS signal turns ON.
(1) Up-to-frequency sensitivity (SU signal, Pr. 41)
⋅When the output frequency reaches the set frequency, the up-to-frequency
signal (SU) is output.
⋅The Pr. 41 value can be adjusted within the range ±1% to ±100% on the
assumption that the set frequency is 100%.
⋅This parameter can be used to ensure that the set frequency has been
reached to provide the operation start signal etc. for related equipment.
(2) Output frequency detection (FU (FB) signal, FU2 (FB2) signal, FU3 (FB3) signal, Pr. 42, Pr. 43,
Pr. 50, Pr. 116)
⋅When the output frequency rises to or above the Pr. 42 setting, the output frequency detection signal (FU, FB) is
output.
⋅This function can be used for electromagnetic brake operation, open signal, etc.
⋅The FU (FU2, FU3) signal is output when the output frequency (frequency command) reaches the set frequency.
The FB (FB2, FB3) signal is output when the actual rotation detection speed (estimated speed in Real sensorless
vector control, feedback value in vector control) of the motor reaches the set frequency. The FU signal and FB
signal are output simultaneously during V/F control, Advanced magnetic flux vector control and encoder feedback
control.
⋅When the detection frequency is set in Pr. 43, frequency detection used exclusively for reverse rotation can also be
set. This function is effective for switching the timing of electromagnetic brake operation between forward rotation

⋅The output current detection function can be used for excessive
torque detection, etc.
⋅If the output current remains higher than the Pr. 150 setting during
inverter operation for longer than the time set in Pr. 151, the
output current detection signal (Y12) is output from the inverter's
open collector or relay output terminal.
⋅When the Y12 signal turns ON, the ON state is held for the time
set in Pr. 166 .
⋅When Pr. 166 = "9999", the ON state is held until a next start.
⋅At the Pr. 167 setting of "1", the inverter trips and the output
current detection fault (E.CDO) is displayed when the Y12 signal
turns ON. When fault occurs, the Y12 signal is ON for the time
set in Pr. 166 at the Pr. 166 setting of other than "9999", and
remains on until a reset is made at the Pr. 166 setting of "9999".
E.CDO does not occur even if "1" is set in Pr. 167 while Y12 is

PARAMETERS
4.15.9 Detection of output torque (TU signal, Pr. 864)
(2) Zero current detection (Y13 signal, Pr. 152, Pr. 153)
⋅If the output current remains lower than the Pr. 152 setting
during inverter operation for longer than the time set in Pr.
153, the zero current detection (Y13) signal is output from
the inverter's open collector or relay output terminal.
⋅When the inverter's output current falls to "0", torque will not
be generated. This may cause a drop due to gravity when
the inverter is used in vertical lift application. To prevent this,
the Y13 signal can be output from the inverter to close the
mechanical brake when the output current has fallen to
"zero".
⋅Set "13 (positive logic)" or "113 (negative logic)" in any of Pr.
190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection) to assign the
function of the Y13 signal to the output terminal.
CAUTION
⋅This function is also valid during execution of the online or offline auto tuning.
⋅The response time of Y12 and Y13 signals is approximately 0.1s. Note that the response time changes according to the load
condition.
⋅When Pr. 152 = "0", detection is disabled.
⋅When terminal assignment is changed using Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection), the other functions may be
affected. Set parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.
CAUTION
The zero current detection level setting should not be too low, and the zero current detection time setting not too
long. Otherwise, the detection signal may not be output when torque is not generated at a low output current.
To prevent the machine and equipment from resulting in hazardous conditions by use of the zero current
detection signal, install a safety backup such as an emergency brake.

⋅The output terminal can be turned ON/OFF depending
on the Pr. 496 or Pr. 497 setting. The remote output
selection can be controlled ON/OFF by computer link
communication from the PU connector or RS-485 port
or by communication from the communication option.
⋅Set "96" (positive logic) or "196" (negative logic) to any
of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection),

terminal used for remote output,
⋅When you refer to the diagram on the left and set 1 to
the terminal bit (terminal where the REM signal has
been assigned) of Pr. 496 or Pr. 497, the output terminal
turns ON (OFF for negative logic). By setting 0, the
output terminal turns OFF (ON for negative logic).
Example)When "96" (positive logic) is set in Pr. 190 RUN terminal function selection and "1" (H01) is set in Pr. 496,
the terminal RUN turns ON.
ON/OFF example for positive logic
Signal condition during a reset
* When Pr. 495 = "1," the signal condition saved in EEPROM
(condition of the last power OFF) is applied.
⋅When Pr. 495 = "0 (initial value), 10", performing a power
supply reset (including a power failure) clears the REM signal
output. (The ON/OFF status of the terminals are as set in Pr.
190 to Pr. 196.) The Pr. 496 and Pr. 497 settings are also "0".
When Pr. 495 = "1, 11", the remote output data before power
supply-off is stored into the EEPROM, so the signal output at
power recovery is the same as before power supply-OFF.
However, it is not stored when the inverter is reset (terminal
reset, reset request through communication).
(See the chart on the left)
⋅When Pr. 495 = "10, 11", the signal before the reset is held
even during an inverter reset.
REMARKS
⋅The output terminal where the REM signal is not assigned using any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 does not turn ON/OFF if 0/1 is set to the
terminal bit of Pr. 496 or Pr. 497. (It turns ON/OFF with the assigned function.)
CAUTION
⋅When Pr. 495 = "1, 11" (remote output data retention at power OFF), connect R1/11 with P/+, and S1/L21 with N/- so that the
control power is retained. If you do not take such a step, the output signals provided after power-ON are not guaranteed.

Monitor display and monitor output signal
⋅To display the machine speed, set in Pr. 37 the machine speed for operation with frequency set in Pr. 505.
For example, when Pr. 505 = "60Hz" and Pr. 37 = "1000", "1000" is displayed on the running speed monitor when the
running frequency is 60Hz. When running frequency is 30Hz, "500" is displayed.
⋅When displaying the motor speed, set the number of motor poles (2, 4, 6, 8, 10) or number of motor poles + 100
(102, 104, 106, 108, 110) in Pr. 144.
⋅The Pr. 144 setting is automatically changed if the number of motor poles is set in Pr. 81 Number of motor poles. The Pr.
81 setting is not automatically changed even if the setting of Pr. 144 is changed.
Example 1) When the initial value of Pr. 81 is changed to "2" or "12", the Pr. 144 setting changes from "4" to "2".
Example 2) When Pr. 144 = "104", setting "2" in Pr. 81 changes the Pr. 144 setting from "104" to "102".
⋅When "1, or 11" is set in Pr. 811, the setting increments of speed setting from the PU, speed setting from RS-485
communication or communication options (other than FR-A7ND, FR-A7NL) and running speed monitor is 0.1r/min.

For Pr. 144 in the above formula, the value is "Pr. 144 - 100" when "102 to 110" is set in Pr. 144 and the value is "4" when Pr. 37 = 0 and Pr. 144 = 0.
Pr. 505 is always set as frequency (Hz).
CAUTION
⋅The inverter's output frequency is displayed as synchronous speed under V/F control. The displayed value is "actual motor
speed" + "motor slip." This display changes to the actual speed (estimated value calculated based on the motor slip) when the
Advanced magnetic flux vector control or Real sensorless vector control is selected, and actual speed from the encoder when
encoder feedback control or vector control is performed.
⋅When the running speed display is selected at the setting of Pr. 37 = "0" and Pr. 144 = "0", the monitor display is provided on the
assumption that the number of motor poles is 4. (1800r/min is displayed at 60Hz)
⋅Refer to Pr. 52 when you want to change the PU main monitor (PU main display).
⋅Since the panel display of the operation panel (FR-DU07) is 4 digits in length, the monitor value of more than "9999" is
displayed "----".
⋅After setting the running speed in 0.1r/min increments (Pr. 811 = "1, 11"), changing the setting increments to 1r/min increments
(Pr. 811 = "0, 10") changes the speed resolution from 0.1r/min to 0.3r/min (four poles), which may round down 0.1r/min
increments.
⋅When the machine speed is displayed on the FR-PU04/FR-PU07, do not change the speed by using an up/down key in the
state where the set speed exceeding 65535 is displayed. The set speed may become arbitrary value.
⋅When an optional FR-A7ND or FR-A7NL card is mounted, frequency is displayed regardless of Pr. 37 and Pr. 144 setting.
CAUTION
Make sure that the settings of the running speed and number of motor poles are correct. Otherwise, the motor
might run at extremely high speed, damaging the machine.

*2 The cumulative energization time and actual operation time are accumulated from 0 to 65535 hours, then cleared, and accumulated again from 0.
When the operation panel (FR-DU07) is used, the time is displayed up to 65.53 (65530h) in the indication of 1h = 0.001, and thereafter, it is added
up from 0.
*3 The actual operation time is not added up if the cumulative operation time before power supply-off is less than 1h.
*4 When using the parameter unit (FR-PU04/FR-PU07), "kW" is displayed.
*5 The setting depends on the inverter capacity. (55K or lower / 75K or higher)
*6 Since the panel display of the operation panel (FR-DU07) is 4 digits in length, the monitor value of more than "9999" is displayed as "----".
*7 When the output current is less than the specified current level (5% of the rated inverter current), the output current is monitored as 0A. Therefore,
the monitored value of an output current and output power may be displayed as "0" when using a much smaller-capacity motor compared to the

(connection example with a pulse counter)
• When Pr. 291 Pulse train I/O selection = "10, 11, 20, 21, 100",
high speed pulse train is output by open collector output.
Pulse train of maximum of 55k pulses/s is output.
Two types of pulse width, 50% Duty and fixed ON width, are
available. Adjustment by calibration parameter C0 (Pr. 900)

* When the output wiring length is long, a pulse shape is deformed due to the stray
capacitances of the wiring and output pulse cannot be recognized. If the wiring
length is long, connect the open collector output signal and the power supply using
an external pull up resistance.
Check specifications of a pulse counter for a resistance value to pull up. Select an
appropriate resistance value so that the load current is 80mA or less.
Pulse when Pr. 291 = "10, 11" • When Pr. 291 = "10, 11", the pulse cycle is 50% Duty (ON

⋅Using the pulse train output of the terminal FM, a digital display can be provided by a digital counter. The monitor
value is 1440 pulses/s output at the full-scale value of the table on the previous page (Pr. 54 FM terminal function
selection).
⋅Calibrate the terminal FM in the following procedure.
1) Connect an indicator (frequency meter) across the terminals FM-SD of the inverter. (Note the polarity. The
terminal FM is positive.)
2) When a calibration resistor has already been connected, adjust the resistance to "0" or remove the resistor.
3) Refer to the output signal list (page 253) and set Pr. 54. When you selected the running frequency or inverter
output current as the output signal, preset the running frequency or current value, at which the output signal will
be 1440 pulses/s, to Pr. 55 Frequency monitoring reference or Pr. 56 Current monitoring reference. At 1440 pulses/s,
the meter generally deflects to full-scale.
By using the operation panel or parameter unit, you can calibrate terminal FM and terminal AM to full scale
deflection.

*1 Not needed when the operation panel (FR-DU07) or parameter unit (FR-PU04/FR-PU07) is used for calibration.
Use a calibration resistor when the indicator (frequency meter) needs to be calibrated by a neighboring device because the indicator
is located far from the inverter.
Note that the needle of the frequency meter may not deflect to full-scale when the calibration resistor is connected. In this case, use
this resistor and perform calibration of operation panel or parameter unit.
*2 The initial settings are 1mA full-scale and 1440 pulses/s terminal FM frequency at 60Hz.
REMARKS
⋅When outputting such an item as the output current, which cannot reach a 100% value easily by operation, set Pr. 54 = "21"
(reference voltage output) and make calibration. 1440 pulses/s are output from the terminal FM.
⋅The wiring length of the terminal FM should be 200m maximum.
CAUTION
⋅The initial value of the calibration parameter C0 (Pr. 900) is set to 1mA full-scale and 1440 pulses/s FM output frequency at
60Hz. The maximum pulse train output of terminal FM is 2400 pulses/s.
⋅When a frequency meter is connected across terminals FM-SD to monitor the running frequency, the FM terminal output is
filled to capacity at the initial setting if the maximum output frequency reaches or exceeds 100Hz. In this case, the Pr. 55 setting
must be changed to the maximum frequency.
⋅When Pr. 291 Pulse train I/O selection = "10, 11, 20, 21, 100" (high speed pulse train output), calibration using calibration

AM is positive.)
2) Refer to the monitor description list (page 253) and set Pr. 158.
When you selected the running frequency, inverter output current, etc. as monitor, preset in Pr. 55 or Pr. 56 the
running frequency or current value at which the output signal will be 10V.
3) When outputting the item that cannot achieve a 100% value easily by operation, e.g. output current, set "21"
(reference voltage output) in Pr. 158 and perform the following operation. After that, set "2" (output current, for
example) in Pr. 158.
⋅Terminal AM is factory-set to provide a 10VDC output in the full-scale
status of the corresponding monitor item. Calibration parameter C1 (Pr.
901) allows the output voltage ratios (gains) to be adjusted according
to the meter scale. Note that the maximum output voltage is 10VDC.

PARAMETERS
(1) Automatic restart after instantaneous power failure operation
⋅When instantaneous power failure protection (E.IPF) and undervoltage
protection (E.UVT) are activated, the inverter trips. (Refer to page 411 for
E.IPF and E.UVT.)
When automatic restart after instantaneous power failure operation is set,
the motor can be restarted if power is restored after an instantaneous
power failure or undervoltage is corrected. (E.IPF and E.UVT are not
activated.)
⋅When E.IPF and E.UVT are activated, instantaneous power failure/under
voltage signal (IPF) is output.
⋅The IPF signal is assigned to the terminal IPF in the initial setting. The IPF
signal can also be assigned to the other terminal by setting "2 (positive
logic) or 102 (negative logic)" to any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal
function selection).
(2) Connection (CS signal)
⋅When the automatic restart after instantaneous power failure
selection signal (CS) is turned ON, automatic restart operation
is enabled.
⋅When Pr. 57 is set to other than "9999" (automatic restart
operation enabled), the inverter will not operate if used with the
CS signal remained OFF.
(3) Automatic restart operation selection (Pr. 162, Pr.
299)
With frequency search
When "0 (initial value), 10" is set in Pr. 162, the inverter
smoothly starts after detecting the motor speed upon power
restoration.
⋅During reverse rotation, the inverter can be restarted smoothly
as the direction of rotation is detected.
⋅You can select whether to make rotation direction detection or
not with Pr. 299 Rotation direction detection selection at restarting.
When capacities of the motor and inverter differ, set "0"
(without rotation direction detection) in Pr. 299.

REMARKS
⋅Speed detection time (frequency search) changes according to
the motor speed. (maximum 500ms)
⋅When the inverter capacity is two rank or more larger than the
motor capacity, the inverter may not start due to overcurrent trip
(E.OC ).
⋅If two or more motors are connected to one inverter, the inverter
functions abnormally. (The inverter does not start smoothly.)
⋅Since the DC injection brake is operated instantaneously when
the speed is detected at a restart, the speed may reduce if the
inertia moment (J) of the load is small.
⋅When reverse rotation is detected when Pr. 78 = "1" (reverse
rotation disabled), the rotation direction is changed to forward
rotation after decelerates in reverse rotation when the start
command is forward rotation. The inverter will not start when the
start command is reverse rotation.

268
Operation selection at power failure
and instantaneous power failure
Without frequency search
When Pr. 162 = "1" or "11", automatic restart operation is
performed in a reduced voltage system, where the voltage is
gradually risen with the output frequency unchanged from prior
to an instantaneous power failure independently of the
coasting speed of the motor.
For Real sensorless vector control, output frequency and
voltage before instantaneous power failure are output. (Pr. 58 is
invalid.)
Encoder detection frequency search
⋅When "2 or 12" is set in Pr. 162 under encoder feedback
control, the motor starts at the motor speed and in the rotation
direction detected from the encoder at power restoration.
⋅Encoder detection frequency search is performed regardless
of the Pr. 162 setting under vector control.
⋅The Pr. 58 and Pr. 299 settings are invalid for encoder detection
frequency search.
Restart operation at every start
When Pr. 162 = "10, 11 or 12", automatic restart operation is
also performed every start, in addition to the automatic restart
after instantaneous power failure. When Pr. 162 = "0, 1 or 2",
automatic restart operation is performed at the first start after
power supply-on, but the inverter starts at the starting
frequency at the second time or later.

PARAMETERS
(4) Restart coasting time (Pr. 57)
⋅Coasting time is the time from when the motor speed is detected until automatic restart control is started.
⋅Set Pr. 57 to "0" to perform automatic restart operation. The coasting time is automatically set to the value below.
Generally this setting will pose no problems.

⋅Operation may not be performed well depending on the magnitude of the moment of inertia (J) of the load or
running frequency. Adjust the coasting time between 0.1s and 5s according to the load specifications.
(5) Restart cushion time (Pr. 58)
⋅Cushion time is the length of time taken to raise the voltage appropriate to the detected motor speed (output
frequency prior to instantaneous power failure when Pr. 162 = "1" or "11").
⋅Normally the initial value need not be changed for operation, but adjust it according to the magnitude of the
moment of inertia (J) of the load or torque.
⋅Pr. 58 is invalid during Real sensorless vector control or vector control.
(6) Automatic restart operation adjustment (Pr. 163 to
Pr. 165, Pr. 611)
⋅Using Pr. 163 and Pr. 164, you can adjust the voltage rise time at
a restart as shown on the left.
⋅Using Pr. 165, you can set the stall prevention operation level at
a restart.
⋅Using Pr. 611, you can set the acceleration time until Pr. 20
Acceleration/deceleration reference frequency is reached when
automatic restart operation is performed besides the normal
acceleration time.
CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set
parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.
⋅When automatic restart operation is selected, undervoltage protection (E.UVT) and instantaneous power failure protection
(E.IPF) among the fault output signals will not be provided at occurrence of an instantaneous power failure.
⋅The SU and FU signals are not output during a restart. They are output after the restart cushion time has elapsed.
⋅Automatic restart operation will also be performed after a reset made by an inverter reset is canceled or when a retry is made
by the retry function.
⋅Automatic restart after instantaneous power failure function is invalid when load torque high speed frequency control (Pr. 270 =
"2, 3 or 13") is set.
CAUTION
Provide mechanical interlocks for MC1 and MC2. The inverter will be damaged if the power supply is input to the
inverter output section.
When automatic restart after instantaneous power failure has been selected, the motor and machine will start
suddenly (after the reset time has elapsed) after occurrence of an instantaneous power failure. Stay away from
the motor and machine. When you have selected automatic restart after instantaneous power failure function,
apply in easily visible places the CAUTION stickers supplied to the instruction manual (basic).

⋅The Y46 signal is ON during deceleration at an instantaneous power failure or during a stop after deceleration at an
instantaneous power failure.
⋅For the Y46 signal, set "46 (positive logic)" or "146 (negative logic)" in any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal
function selection) to assign the function.
CAUTION
⋅When Pr. 30 Regenerative function selection = "2" (FR-HC, MT-HC, FR-CV is used), the power failure deceleration function is
invalid.
⋅When the (output frequency - Pr. 262) at undervoltage or power failure occurrence is negative, the calculation result is regarded
as 0Hz. (DC injection brake operation is performed without deceleration).
⋅During a stop or error, the power failure stop selection is not performed.
⋅Y46 signal turns ON when undervoltage occurs even when the motor is not decelerating at an instantaneous power failure.
For this reason, Y46 signal outputs instantly at powering OFF, which is not a fault.
⋅When power failure deceleration stop function is selected, undervoltage protection (E.UVT), instantaneous power failure
protection (E.IPF), and input phase loss protection (E.ILF) do not function.
⋅Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Set
parameters after confirming the function of each terminal.
CAUTION
If power-failure deceleration stop function is set, some loads may cause the inverter to trip and the motor to
coast. The motor will coast if enough regenerative energy is given from the motor.

PARAMETERS

4.18.1 Retry function (Pr. 65, Pr. 67 to Pr. 69)
⋅Retry operation automatically resets a fault and
restarts the inverter at the starting frequency when the
time set in Pr. 68 elapses after the inverter tripped due
to the fault.
⋅Retry operation is performed by setting Pr. 67 to any
value other than "0". Set the number of retries at fault
occurrence in Pr. 67.
⋅When retries fail consecutively more than the number
of times set in Pr. 67 , a retry count excess fault
(E.RET) occurs, and the inverter trips.
(Refer to retry failure example)
⋅Use Pr. 68 to set the waiting time from when an inverter
fault occurs until a retry is made in the range 0 to 10s.
(When the setting value is "0s", the actual time is 0.1s.)
⋅Reading the Pr. 69 value provides the cumulative
number of successful restart times made by retry. The
cumulative count in Pr. 69 is increased by 1 when a
retry is regarded as successful after normal operation
continues without faults occurring for more than four
times longer than the time set in Pr. 68 after a retry start.
(When retry is successful, cumulative number of retry
failure is cleared.)
⋅Writing "0" in Pr. 69 clears the cumulative count.
⋅During a retry, the Y64 signal is ON. For the Y64
signal, assign the function by setting "64 (positive
logic)" or "164 (negative logic)" in any of Pr. 190 to Pr.
196 (output terminal function selection) .

PARAMETERS
(2) Power saving instantaneous monitor ( 1) power savings, 2) power saving rate )
⋅On the power saving monitor ( 1)), an energy saving effect as compared to the power consumption during
commercial power supply operation (estimated value) is calculated and displays on the main monitor.
⋅In the following case, the power saving monitor ( 1)) is "0".
(a)Calculated values of the power saving monitor are negative values.
(b)During the DC injection brake operation
(c)Motor is not connected (output current monitor is 0A)
⋅On the power saving rate monitor ( 2)), setting "0" in Pr. 895 Power saving rate reference value displays the power
saving rate on the assumption that power (estimated value) during commercial power supply operation is 100%.
When Pr. 895 = "1", the power saving rate on the assumption that the Pr. 893 Energy saving monitor reference (motor
capacity) value is 100% is displayed.
(3) Power saving average value monitor ( 3) power saving average value, 4) average power
saving rate average value, 5) average power cost savings)
⋅Power saving average value monitor can be displayed when a value other than "9999" is set in Pr. 897 Power saving
monitor average time.
⋅The power saving average value monitor ( 3)) displays the average value per unit time of the power saving amount
at averaging.
⋅The average value is updated every time an average time has elapsed after the Pr. 897 setting is changed, power is
turned ON or the inverter is reset, assuming as a starting point. The power savings average value update timing
signal (Y92) is inverted every time the average value is updated.
⋅The power saving average value monitor ( 4)) displays the average value per unit time of power saving rate ( 2)) at
every average time by setting "0" or "1" in Pr. 895 Power saving rate reference value.
⋅By setting the charge (power unit) per 1kWh of power amount in Pr. 896 Power unit cost, the power saving amount
average value monitor ( 5)) displays the charge relative to the power saving average value (power saving average
value ( 3)) × Pr. 896).
(4) Cumulative saving power monitor ( 6) power saving amount, 7) power cost savings, 8)
annual power saving amount, 9) annual power cost savings)
⋅On the cumulative saving power monitor, the monitor data digit can be shifted to the right by the number of Pr. 891
Cumulative power monitor digit shifted times settings. For example, if the cumulative power value is 1278.56kWh
when Pr. 891 = "2", the PU/DU display is 12.78 (display in 100kWh increments) and the communication data is 12.
If the maximum value is exceeded at Pr. 891 = "0 to 4", the power is clamped at the maximum value, indicating that
a digit shift is necessary. If the maximum value is exceeded at Pr. 891 = "9999", the power returns to 0 and is
recounted. The other monitors are clamped at the display maximum value.
⋅The cumulative saving power monitor ( 6)) can measure the power amount during a predetermined period.
Measure according to the following steps
1) Write "9999" or "10" in Pr. 898 Power saving cumulative monitor clear.
2) Write "0" in Pr. 898 at measurement start timing to clear the cumulative saving power monitor value and start
totalization of power saving.
3) Write "1" in Pr. 898 at measurement end timing to hold the cumulative saving power monitor value.
REMARKS
⋅The cumulative saving power monitor value is stored every hour. Hence, when the power supply is switched ON again within
one hour after it was switched OFF, the previously stored monitor value is displayed and totalization starts. (The cumulative
monitor value may decrease)

(6) Annual power saving amount, power cost (Pr. 899)
⋅By setting the operation time rate [%] (ratio of time when the motor is actually driven by the inverter during a year)
in Pr. 899, the annual energy saving effect can be predicted.
⋅When the operation pattern is predetermined to some degree, the estimated value of the annual power saving
amount can be found by measurement of the power saving amount during a given measurement period.
⋅Refer to the following and set the operation time rate.
1) Predict the average time [h/day] of operation in a day.
2) Find the annual operation days [days/year]. (Monthly average operation days × 12 months)
3) Calculate the annual operation time [h/year] from 1) and 2).
4) Calculate the operation time rate and set it to Pr. 899.
⋅Calculate the annual power saving amount from Pr. 899 Operation time rate (estimated value) and power saving
average value monitor
⋅The annual power saving amount charge can be monitored by setting the power charge per hour in Pr. 896 Power
unit cost.
Calculate the annual power saving amount charge in the following method.
Annual operation time (h/year) = Average time (h/day) × Operation days (days/year)
Operation time rate (%) = × 100(%)
REMARKS
⋅Operation time rate setting example: When operation is performed for about 21 hours per day and the monthly average
operation days are 16 days
Annual operation time = 21 (h/day) × 16 (days/month) × 12 months = 4032 (h/year)
Operation time rate (%) = × 100(%) = 46.03%
Set 46.03% to Pr. 899.
Annual power saving amount (kWh/year) = × 24h × 365 days ×
Annual power saving amount charge = Annual power saving amount (kWh/year) × Pr. 896
REMARKS
In the regeneration mode, make calculation on the assumption that "power saving = power during commercial power supply
operation (input power = 0)".

(1) PWM carrier frequency changing (Pr. 72)
⋅You can change the PWM carrier frequency of the inverter.
⋅Changing the PWM carrier frequency produces an effect on avoiding the resonance frequency of a mechanical
system or motor or on EMI measures or on leakage current reduction caused by the PWM switching.
⋅Carrier frequencies under Real sensorless vector control or vector control are as shown below.
(2) Soft-PWM control (Pr. 240)

⋅When using an option sine wave filter (MT-BSL/BSC) for the 75K or higher, set "25" (2.5kHz) in Pr. 72.
REMARKS
When "25" (available with the 75K or higher) is set in Pr. 72, V/F control is forcibly selected.
CAUTION
⋅When operating the inverter of 75K or higher with a value larger than 2kHz set in Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection, derate the
inverter rated output current. (Refer to page 442)
⋅When operating the inverter of 55K or lower with a value larger than 2kHz set in Pr. 72 PWM frequency selection, the carrier
frequency will automatically decrease as low as 2kHz if the inverter is overloaded during low speed operation (output frequency
is 3Hz or less). This may cause the motor noise to increase, but not a fault.
⋅Decreasing the PWM carrier frequency effect on EMI measures and on leakage current reduction, but increases motor noise.
⋅When PWM carrier frequency is set to 1kHz or less (Pr. 72 ≤ 1), fast response current limit may function prior to stall prevention
operation due to increase in harmonic currents depending on the motor, resulting in insufficient torque. In such case, set fast
response current limit operation invalid using Pr. 156 Stall prevention operation selection.

(2) Override function (Pr. 252, Pr. 253)
Override connection diagram
⋅Use the override function to change the main speed at a fixed ratio.
⋅Set any of "4, 5, 14, 15" in Pr. 73 to select an override.
⋅When an override is selected, the terminal 1 or terminal 4 is used for the main speed
setting and the terminal 2 for the override signal. (When the main speed of the
terminal 1 or terminal 4 is not input, compensation made by the terminal 2 becomes
invalid.)
⋅Using Pr. 252 and Pr. 253, set the override range.
⋅How to find the set frequency for override
Set frequency (Hz) = Main speed set frequency (Hz) ×
Main speed set frequency (Hz): Terminal 1, 4 input, multi-speed setting
Compensation amount (%): Terminal 2 input
Example)When Pr. 73 = "5"
The set frequency changes as shown below according to the
terminal 1 (main speed) and terminal 2 (auxiliary) inputs.
CAUTION
⋅When the Pr. 73 setting was changed, check the voltage/current input switch setting. Different setting may cause a fault, failure
or malfunction. (Refer to page 286 for setting.)
REMARKS
⋅The AU signal must be turned ON to use the terminal 4.
⋅When inputting compensation to multi-speed operation or remote setting, set "1" (compensation made) in Pr. 28 Multi-speed input
compensation selection. (Initial value is "0")

PARAMETERS
(2) Time constant of analog input (Pr. 74)
⋅Effective for eliminating noise in the frequency setting circuit.
⋅Increase the filter time constant if steady operation cannot be performed due to noise.
A larger setting results in slower response (The time constant can be set between approximately 5ms to 1s with the
setting of 0 to 8).
(3) Time constant of analog speed command input (Pr. 822, Pr. 832)
⋅Set the time constant of the primary delay filter relative to the external torque command (analog input command)
using Pr. 822 Speed setting filter 1.
Set a large time constant when you want to delay the tracking of the speed command, when the analog input
voltage fluctuates, etc.
⋅When you want to change time constant when switching two motors with one inverter, use the Pr. 832 Speed setting
filter 2.
⋅Pr. 832 Speed setting filter 2 is valid when the RT signal turns ON.
(4) Time constant of analog torque command input (Pr. 826, Pr. 836)
⋅Set the time constant of the primary delay filter relative to the external torque command (analog input command)
using Pr. 826 Torque setting filter 1.
Set a large time constant value when you want to delay the tracking of the torque command, when the analog input
voltage fluctuates, etc.
⋅When you want to change time constant when switching two motors with one inverter, etc., use Pr. 836 Torque setting
filter 2.
⋅Pr. 836 Torque setting filter 2 is valid when the RT signal turns ON.
(5) Offset adjustment of analog speed command
input (Pr. 849)
⋅When speed command by analog input is set, create the
range where the motor remains stop to prevent malfunction
at very low speed.
⋅On the assumption that the Pr. 849 setting 100% as 0, the
offset voltage is offset as follows:
100% < Pr. 849 ........ positive side
100% > Pr. 849 ........negative side
The offset voltage is found by the following formula.

(4) Analog input display unit changing (Pr. 241)
⋅You can change the analog input display unit (%/V/mA) for analog input bias/gain calibration.
⋅Depending on the terminal input specification set to Pr. 73, Pr. 267 and voltage/current input switch, the display units of
C3 (Pr. 902), C4 (Pr. 903), C6 (Pr. 904) C7 (Pr. 905) change as shown below.
(2) Change the frequency at maximum
analog input. (Pr. 125, Pr. 126)
⋅Set a value in Pr. 125 (Pr. 126) when changing only
the frequency setting (gain) of the maximum analog
input power (current). (C2 (Pr. 902) to C7 (Pr. 905)
setting need not be changed)
(3) Analog input bias/gain calibration (C2(Pr.
902) to C7(Pr. 905), C12(Pr. 917) to C15(Pr.
918))
⋅The "bias" and "gain" functions are used to adjust the
relationship between the input signal entered from
outside the inverter to set the output frequency, e.g. 0
to 5V, 0 to 10V or 4 to 20mADC, and the output
frequency.
⋅Set the bias frequency of the terminal 2 input using
C2 (Pr. 902). (Initial value is the frequency at 0V.)
⋅Using Pr. 125, set the output frequency relative to the
frequency command voltage (current) set in Pr. 73
Analog input selection.
⋅Set the bias frequency of the terminal 1 input using
C12 (Pr. 917). (Initial value is the frequency at 0V.)
⋅Set the gain frequency of the terminal 1 input using
C14 (Pr. 918). (Initial value is the frequency at 10V.)
⋅Set the bias frequency of the terminal 4 input using
C5 (Pr. 904). (Initial value is the frequency at 4mA.)
⋅Using Pr. 126, set the output frequency relative to
20mA of the frequency command current (4 to
20mA).
There are three methods to adjust the frequency setting voltage (current) bias/gain.
(a) Method to adjust any point by application of voltage (current) across the terminals 2 and 5 (4 and 5).
page 297
(b) Method to adjust any point without application of a voltage (current) across terminals 2 and 5(4 and 5).
page 298
(c) Adjusting only the frequency without adjusting the voltage (current). page 299
CAUTION
⋅When the terminal 2 is calibrated to change the inclination of the set frequency, the setting of the terminal 1 is also changed.
⋅When a voltage is input to the terminal 1 to make calibration, (terminal 2 (4) analog value + terminal 1 analog value) is the
analog calibration value.
⋅When the voltage/current input signal was changed using Pr. 73, Pr. 267 and voltage/current input switch, be sure to make
calibration.

(2) Disconnected PU detection
• This function detects that the PU (FR-DU07/FR-PU04/FR-PU07) has been disconnected from the inverter for
longer than 1s and causes the inverter to provide a fault output (E.PUE) and come to trip.
• When Pr. 75 is set to any of "0, 1, 14, 15", operation is continued if the PU is disconnected.
(3) PU stop selection
• In any of the PU operation, External operation and Network operation modes, the motor can be stopped by
pressing of the PU.
• When the inverter is stopped by the PU stop function, " " is displayed. A fault signal output is not provided.
• When Pr. 75 is set to any of "0 to 3", deceleration to a stop by is valid only in the PU operation mode.
(4) How to restart the motor stopped by input from the PU in External operation mode (PU
stop (PS) reset method)
• The motor can be restarted by making a reset using a power supply reset or RES signal.
CAUTION
⋅When the PU has been disconnected since before power-on, it is not judged as a fault.
⋅To make a restart, confirm that the PU is connected and then reset the inverter.
⋅The motor decelerates to a stop when the PU is disconnected during PU jog operation with Pr. 75 set to any of "0, 1, 14, 15"

Selection of operation mode and operation location
(1) Operation mode basics
(2) Operation mode switching method
⋅The operation mode is to specify the source of
inputting the start command and frequency
command of the inverter.
⋅Basically, there are following operation modes.
External operation mode: For inputting start
command and frequency command by an external
potentiometer and switches which are connected
to the control circuit terminal.
PU operation mode: For inputting start command
and frequency command by operation panel (FR-
DU07), parameter unit (FR-PU04/FR-PU07) and
RS-485 communication with PU connector.
Network operation mode (NET operation
mode): For inputting start command and
frequency command by RS-485 terminal and
communication options.
⋅The operation mode can be selected from the
operation panel or with the communication
instruction code.
REMARKS
⋅Either "3" or "4" may be set to select the PU/external combined operation, and these settings differ in starting method.
⋅In the initial setting, the stop function by of the PU (FR-DU07/FR-PU07) (PU stop selection) is valid also in other than the
PU operation mode. (Pr. 75 Reset selection/disconnected PU detection/PU stop selection. Refer to page 305.)

(5) PU operation mode (setting "1")
⋅Select the External operation mode when the start
command and the frequency command are applied
from a frequency setting potentiometer, start switch, etc.
externally and connecting them to the control circuit
terminals of the inverter.
⋅Generally, parameter change cannot be performed with
the operation panel in the External operation mode.
(Some parameters can be changed. Refer to the
detailed description of each parameter.)
⋅When "0" or "2" is selected for Pr. 79, the inverter enters
the External operation mode at power ON. (When using
the Network operation mode, refer to page 321)
⋅When parameter changing is seldom necessary, setting
"2" fixes the operation mode to External operation
mode. When frequent parameter changing is
necessary, setting "0" (initial value) allows the operation
mode to be changed easily to PU operation mode by
pressing of the operation panel. When you
switched to PU operation mode, always return to
External operation mode.
⋅The STF and STR signal are used as a start command,
and the voltage or current signal to terminal 2, 4,
multispeed signal, JOG signal, etc. are used as
frequency command.
⋅Select the PU operation mode when performing
operation by only the key operation of the operation
panel (FR-DU07) or parameter unit (FR-PU04/FR-
PU07). Also select the PU operation mode when
making communication using the PU connector.
⋅When "1" is selected for Pr. 79, the inverter enters the
PU operation mode at power ON. You cannot change to
the other operation mode.
⋅The setting dial of the operation panel can be used for
setting like a potentiometer. (Pr. 161 Frequency setting/key
lock operation selection, refer to page 393.)
⋅When PU operation mode is selected, the PU operation
mode signal (PU) can be output.
For the terminal used for the PU signal output, assign
the function by setting "10 (positive logic) or 110
(negative logic)" in any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output

(9) PU operation interlock (setting "7")
⋅The PU operation interlock function is designed to forcibly change the operation mode to External operation mode when

the external command if the mode is accidentally left unswitched from PU operation mode.
⋅Set "7" (PU operation interlock) in Pr. 79.
⋅For the terminal used for X12 signal (PU operation interlock signal) input, set "12" in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input

CAUTION
⋅
If the X12 (MRS) signal is ON, the operation mode cannot be switched to PU operation mode when the start signal (STF, STR) is ON.
⋅When the MRS signal is used as the PU interlock signal, the MRS signal serves as the normal MRS function (output stop) by
turning ON the MRS signal and then changing the Pr. 79 value to other than "7" in the PU operation mode. Also as soon as "7"
is set in Pr. 79, the signal acts as the PU interlock signal.

4.24.3 Initial settings and specifications of RS-485 communication
(Pr. 117 to Pr. 124, Pr. 331 to Pr. 337, Pr. 341, Pr. 549)
[PU connector communication related parameter]
Use the following parameters to perform required settings for communication between the inverter and personal
computer.
There are two different communications: communication using the PU connector of the inverter and
communication using the RS-485 terminals.
You can perform parameter setting, monitor, etc. from the PU connector or RS-485 terminals of the inverter
using the Mitsubishi inverter protocol (computer link communication).
To make communication between the personal computer and inverter, initialization of the communication
specifications must be made to the inverter.
Data communication cannot be made if the initial settings are not made or there is any setting error.
Parameter

*1 When "1" (Modbus-RTU protocol) is set in Pr. 549, the setting range within parentheses is applied.
*2 For the Modbus-RTU protocol, the data length is fixed to 8 bits and the stop bit depends on the Pr. 334 setting. (Refer to page 347)
*3 Invalid during the Modbus-RTU protocol.
*4 The Modbus-RTU protocol is valid for only communication from the RS-485 terminals.
*5 The inverter works with the initial value if a value other than the setting range is set.
CAUTION
⋅If communication is made without Pr. 336 RS-485 communication check time interval being changed from "0" (initial value), monitor,
parameter read, etc. can be performed, but the inverter results in a fault as soon as it is switched to the NET operation mode. If
the operation mode at power ON is the Network operation mode, a communication fault (E.SER) occurs after first
communication.
When performing operation or parameter write through communication, set "9999" or a greater value to Pr. 336. (The setting
depends on the computer side program.) (Refer to page 339)
⋅Always reset the inverter after making the initial settings of the parameters. After you have changed the communication-related
parameters, communication cannot be made until the inverter is reset.
When parameter write is performed from PU connector, RS-485 terminal, USB communication, and
communication option connected to the inverter, parameter’s storage device can be changed from EEPROM +
RAM to only RAM. Set this parameter when frequent parameter changes are required.

REMARKS
⋅When Pr. 342 is set to "1" (only RAM write), the new values of the parameters will be cleared at power supply-off of the inverter.
Therefore, the parameter values available when power is switched ON again are the values stored in EEPROM previously.

PARAMETERS
(6) Retry count setting (Pr. 121, Pr. 335)
⋅Set the permissible number of retries at occurrence of a data receive error. (Refer to page 338 for data receive error
for retry)
⋅When data receive errors occur consecutively and exceed the permissible number of retries set, an inverter trip
(E.PUE) may occur and stops the motor.
⋅When "9999" is set, an inverter will not trip even if data receive error occurs but an alarm output signal (LF) is output.
For the terminal used for the LF signal output, assign the function by setting "98 (positive logic) or 198 (negative
logic)" in any of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection).
(7) Signal loss detection (Pr. 122, Pr. 336 RS-485 communication check time interval)
⋅If a signal loss (communication stop) is detected between the inverter and computer as a result of a signal loss
detection, a communication fault (PU connector communication: E.PUE, RS-485 terminal communication: E.SER)
occurs and the inverter trips.
⋅When the setting is "9999", communication check (signal loss detection) is not made.
⋅When the setting is "0", communication from the PU connector cannot be performed. For communication via the RS-
485 terminals, monitor, parameter read, etc. can be performed, but a communication fault (E.SER) occurs as soon as
the inverter is switched to Network operation mode.
⋅A signal loss detection is made when the setting is any of "0.1s" to "999.8s". To make a signal loss detection, it is
necessary to send data (control code refer to page 337) from the computer within the communication check time
interval. (The send data has nothing to do with the station number)
⋅Communication check is started at the first communication in the operation mode having the operation source (PU
operation mode for PU connector communication in the initial setting or Network operation mode for RS-485 terminal
communication).

Communication operation and setting
(8) Instructions for the program
1) When data from the computer has any error, the inverter does not accept that data. Hence, in the user program,
always insert a retry program for data error.
2) All data communication, e.g. run command or monitoring, are started when the computer gives a communication
request. The inverter does not return any data without the computer's request. Hence, design the program so that
the computer gives a data read request for monitoring, etc. as required.

CAUTION
Always set the communication check time interval before starting operation to prevent hazardous conditions.
Data communication is not started automatically but is made only once when the computer provides a
communication request. If communication is disabled during operation due to signal loss etc., the inverter cannot
be stopped. When the communication check time interval has elapsed, the inverter will come to a trip (E.PUE,
E.SER). The inverter can be coasted to a stop by switching ON its RES signal or by switching power OFF.
If communication is broken due to signal loss, computer fault etc., the inverter does not detect such a fault. This
should be fully noted.

Communication operation and setting
(2) Outline
The Modbus protocol is the communication protocol developed by Modicon for programmable controller.
The Modbus protocol performs serial communication between the master and slave using the dedicated message
frame. The dedicated message frame has the functions that can perform data read and write. Using the functions,
you can read and write the parameter values from the inverter, write the input command of the inverter, and check
the operating status. In this product, the inverter data are classified in the holding register area (register addresses
40001 to 49999). By accessing the assigned holding register address, the master can communicate with the inverter
which is a slave.
(3) Message format
Data check time
1) Query
The master sends a message to the slave (= inverter) at the specified address.
2) Normal Response
After receiving the query from the master, the slave executes the requested function and returns the corresponding
normal response to the master.
3) Error Response
If an invalid function code, address or data is received, the slave returns it to the master.
When a response description is returned, the error code indicating that the request from the master cannot be
executed is added.
No response is returned for the hardware-detected error, frame error and CRC check error.
4) Broadcast
By specifying address 0, the master can send a message to all slaves. All slaves that received the message from the
master execute the requested function. In this communication, the slaves do not return a response to the master.
REMARKS
There are two different serial transmission modes: ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) mode and RTU
(Remote Terminal Unit) mode. This product supports only the RTU mode in which 1-byte (8-bit) data is transmitted as-is.
Only the communication protocol is defined by the Modbus protocol, and the physical layer is not stipulated.
Item Check Time

REMARKS
The slave executes the function independently of the inverter station number setting (Pr. 331) during broadcast communication.

PARAMETERS
(4) Message frame (protocol)
Communication method
Basically, the master sends a query message (question) and the slave returns a response message
(response). When communication is normal, Device Address and Function Code are copied as they are, and
when communication is abnormal (function code or data code is illegal), bit 7 (= 80h) of Function Code is
turned ON and the error code is set to Data Bytes.
The message frame consists of the four message fields as shown above.
By adding the no-data time (T1: Start, End) of 3.5 characters to the beginning and end of the message data,
the slave recognizes it as one message.
Protocol details
The four message fields will be explained below.

Message Field Description
1) ADDRESS field
The address is 1 byte long (8 bits) and any of 0 to 247 can be set. Set 0 to send a broadcast
message (all-address instruction) or any of 1 to 247 to send a message to each slave.
When the slave responds, it returns the address set from the master.
The value set to Pr. 331 RS-485 communication station number is the slave address.
2) FUNCTION field
The function code is 1 byte long (8 bits) and any of 1 to 255 can be set. The master sets the
function that it wants to request from the slave, and the slave performs the requested
operation. The following table gives the supported function codes. An error response is
returned if the set function code is other than those in the following table.
When the slave returns a normal response, it returns the function code set by the master.
When the slave returns an error response, it returns H80 + function code.
3) DATA field The format changes depending on the function code (refer to page 350). Data includes the byte
count, number of bytes, description of access to the holding register, etc.
4) CRC CHECK field
The received message frame is checked for error. CRC check is performed, and 2 byte long
data is added to the end of the message. When CRC is added to the message, the low-order
byte is added first and is followed by the high-order byte.
The CRC value is calculated by the sending side that adds CRC to the message. The receiving
side recalculates CRC during message receiving, and compares the result of that calculation
and the actual value received in the CRC CHECK field. If these two values do not match, the
result is defined as error.

PARAMETERS
(9) Signal loss detection (Pr. 539 Modbus-RTU communication check time interval)
If a signal loss (communication stop) is detected between the inverter and master as a result of a signal loss
detection, a communication fault (E.SER) occurs and the inverter trips.
· When the setting is "9999", communication check (signal loss detection) is not made.
· When the setting value is "0", monitor, parameter read, etc. can be performed. However, a communication fault
(E.SER) occurs as soon as the inverter is switched to the Network operation mode.
· A signal loss detection is made when the setting is any of "0.1s to 999.8s". To make a signal loss detection, it is
necessary to send data from the master within the communication check time interval. (The inverter makes
communication check (clearing of communication check counter) regardless of the station number setting of the data
sent from the master.)
· Communication check is started from the first communication after switching to the Network operation mode (use Pr.
551 PU mode operation command source selection to change).
· Communication check time of query communication includes data absence time (3.5 byte).
Since this data absence time differs according to the communication speed, make setting considering this absence
time.

129 *1 PID proportional band 100% 0.1 to 1000%
If the proportional band is narrow (parameter setting is small),
the manipulated variable varies greatly with a slight change of

the response sensitivity (gain) improves but the stability
deteriorates, e.g. hunting occurs.

CAUTION
⋅Changing the terminal function using any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189, 190 to Pr. 196 may affect the other functions. Set parameters after
confirming the function of each terminal.

Special operation and frequency control
(5) PID control automatic switchover control (Pr. 127)
⋅The inverter can be started up without PID control only at a start.
⋅When the frequency is set to Pr. 127 PID control automatic switchover frequency within the range of 0 to 400Hz, the
system starts up without PID control from a start until Pr. 127 reaches, and then it shifts to PID control operation
mode. Once the system has entered PID control operation, it continues PID control if the output frequency falls to
or below Pr. 127.
(6) PID output suspension function (SLEEP function) (SLEEP signal, Pr. 575 to Pr. 577 )
⋅The inverter stops operation if the output frequency after PID operation remains at less than the Pr. 576 Output
interruption detection level setting for longer than the time set in Pr. 575 Output interruption detection time. This function
can reduce energy consumption in the low-efficiency, low-speed range.
⋅When the deviation (= set value - measured value) reaches the PID output shutoff cancel level (Pr. 577 setting -
1000%) while the PID output interruption function is ON, the PID output interruption function is canceled and PID
control operation is resumed automatically.
⋅While the PID output interruption function is ON, the PID output interruption signal (SLEEP) is output. At this time,
the inverter running signal (RUN) is OFF and the PID control operating signal (PID) is ON.
(7) PID monitor function
⋅The PID control set value, measured value and deviation value can be displayed on the operation panel and output
from terminal FM, AM.
⋅Integral value indicating a negative % can be displayed on the deviation monitor. 0% is displayed as 1000. (The
deviation monitor cannot be output from the terminal FM, AM.)
⋅For the monitors, set the following values in Pr. 52 DU/PU main display data selection, Pr. 54 FM terminal function

When the parameter unit is used for operation, input the set point (0 to
100%) in Pr. 133.
When performing operation, first set the proportional band (Pr. 129 ) to a
slightly larger value, the integral time (Pr. 130 ) to a slightly longer time,
and the differential time (Pr. 134 ) to "9999" (no function), and while looking
at the system operation, decrease the proportional band (Pr. 129 ) and
increase the integral time (Pr. 130 ). For slow response system where a
deadband exists, differential control (Pr. 134 ) should be turned ON and
increased slowly.
Determine the set point of
what is desired to be adjusted.
Calculate the ratio of the set
point to the detector output.
Input a voltage across terminals
2-5 according to the set value %.
To stabilize the measured value,
change the proportional band (Pr.
129 ) to a larger value, the integral
time (Pr. 130 ) to a slightly longer
time, and the differential time (Pr.
134 ) to a slightly shorter time.
While the measured value is stable
throughout the operation status, the
proportional band (Pr. 129 ) may be
decreased, the integral time (Pr. 130 )
decreased, and the differential time
(Pr. 134 ) increased.
Set the proportional band (Pr.
129 ) to a slightly larger value,
the integral time (Pr. 130 ) to a
slightly longer time, and the
differential time (Pr. 134 ) to
"9999" (no function), and turn
on the start signal.
Set the room temperature to 25 .
Set Pr. 128 and turn on the X14 signal to enable PID control.
Detector specifications
When 0 4mA and 50 20mA are used, the set point 25 is 50% on
the assumption that 4mA is 0% and 20mA is 100%.
Make the following calibration* when the target setting input (0 to 5V) and
detector output (4 to 20mA) must be calibrated.
When the set point is 50%
As the terminal 2 specifications are 0% 0V and 100% 5V, input 2.5V
to the terminal 2 for the set point of 50%.
When calibration
is required
Using calibration Pr. 902 and Pr. 903 (terminal 2) or Pr. 904 and Pr. 905 (terminal
4), calibrate the detector output and target setting input.
Make calibration in the PU mode during an inverter stop.

Special operation and frequency control
<Set point input calibration>
1. Apply the input voltage of 0% set point setting (e.g. 0V) across terminals 2 and 5.
2. Enter in C2 (Pr. 902) the frequency which should be output by the inverter at the deviation of 0% (e.g. 0Hz).
3. In C3 (Pr. 902), set the voltage value at 0%.
4. Apply the voltage of 100% set point (e.g. 5V) across terminals 2 and 5.
5. Enter in Pr. 125 the frequency which should be output by the inverter at the deviation of 100% (e.g. 60Hz).
6. In C4 (Pr. 903), set the voltage value at 100%.
<Measured value calibration>
1. Apply the input current of 0% measured value (e.g. 4mA) across terminals 4 and 5.
2. Make calibration using C6 (Pr. 904).
3. Apply the input current of 100% measured value (e.g. 20mA) across terminals 4 and 5.
4. Make calibration using C7 (Pr. 905).
The results of the above calibration are as shown below:
REMARKS
⋅The frequency set in C5 (Pr. 904) and Pr. 126 should be the same as set in C2 (Pr. 902) and Pr. 125.
CAUTION
⋅If the RH, RM, RL, REX signal (multi-speed) or JOG signal (Jog operation) is entered with the X14 signal ON, PID control is
stopped and multi-speed or jog operation is started.
⋅If the setting is as follows, PID control becomes invalid.
Pr. 79 Operation mode selection = "6" (switchover mode)
⋅When the Pr. 128 setting is "20" or "21", note that the input across inverter terminals 1 and 5 is added to the set value across
terminals 2-5.
⋅When using terminal 4 (measured value input) and terminal 1 (deviation input) under PID control, set "0" (initial value) in Pr. 858
Terminal 4 function assignment and "0" (initial value) in Pr. 868 Terminal 1 function assignment. PID control cannot be performed
when a value other than 0 is set.
⋅Changing the terminal function using any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189, Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 may affect the other functions. Set parameters
after confirming the function of each terminal.
⋅When PID control is selected, the minimum frequency is the frequency set in Pr. 902 and the maximum frequency is the
frequency set in Pr. 903. (Pr. 1 Maximum frequency and Pr. 2 Minimum frequency settings are also valid.)
⋅The remote operation function is invalid during PID operation.
⋅When the control is switched to PID control during
normal operation, the frequency command value
calculated by PID operation using 0Hz as standard is
used without the frequency during the operation.

Bypass-inverter switchover function (Pr. 57, Pr. 58, Pr. 135 to Pr. 139, Pr. 159)
⋅When the motor is operated at 60Hz (or 50Hz), more efficient operation can be performed by the commercial power
supply than by the inverter. When the motor cannot be stopped for a long time for the maintenance/inspection of the
inverter, it is recommended to provide the commercial power supply circuit.
⋅To avoid commercial power supply being applied to the inverter output side when switching between inverter
operation and commercial power supply operation, provide an interlock which the MC of the commercial power
supply side turns ON only when the MC of the inverter output side is OFF. Using the electronic bypass sequence
function that outputs the timing signal for operation of the magnetic contactor, a complicated commercial power
supply switchover interlock can be provided by the inverter.
The complicated sequence circuit for bypass operation is built in the inverter. Hence, merely inputting the start,
stop or automatic switchover selection signal facilitates the interlock operation of the switchover magnetic
contactor.

CAUTION
⋅Connect the control power supply (R1/L11, S1/L21) in front of input side MC1. If the control power supply is connected behind
input side MC1, the electronic bypass sequence function is not executed.
⋅The electronic bypass sequence function is valid only when Pr. 135 = "1" in the external operation or combined operation mode
(PU speed command, external operation command Pr. 79 = "3"). When Pr. 135 = "1" in the operation mode other than the above,
MC1 and MC3 turn ON.
⋅When the MRS and CS signals are ON and the STF (STR) signal is OFF, MC3 is ON, but when the motor was coasted to a stop
from bypass operation last time, a start is made after the time set in Pr. 137 has elapsed.
⋅Inverter operation can be performed when the MRS, STF (STR) and CS signals turn ON. In any other case (MRS signal - ON),
bypass operation is performed.
⋅When the CS signal is turned OFF, the motor switches to bypass operation. However, when the STF (STR) signal is turned
OFF, the motor is decelerated to a stop in the inverter operation mode.
⋅When both MC2 and MC3 are OFF and either MC2 or MC3 is then turned ON, there is a waiting time set in Pr. 136.
⋅If electronic bypass sequence is valid (Pr. 135 = "1"), the Pr. 136 and Pr. 137 settings are ignored in the PU operation mode. The
input terminals (STF, CS, MRS, OH) of the inverter return to their normal functions.
⋅When the electronic bypass sequence function (Pr. 135 = "1") and PU operation interlock function (Pr. 79 = "7") are used
simultaneously, the MRS signal is shared by the PU operation external interlock signal unless the X12 signal is assigned.
(When the MRS and CS signals turn ON, inverter operation is enabled)⋅
⋅Set the acceleration time to the level that does not activate the stall prevention operation.
⋅Changing the terminal function using any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189, 190 to Pr. 196 may affect the other functions. Set parameters after
confirming the function of each terminal.

Special operation and frequency control
4.25.3 Load torque high speed frequency control (Pr. 4, Pr. 5, Pr. 270 to Pr. 274)
<Connection diagram>
Load torque high speed frequency control is a function
which automatically sets the operational maximum
frequency according to the load.
The load size during power driving is estimated by
detecting average currents at set timings after a start.
When the load is light, the frequency is increased from
the originally-set frequency. (During regenerative
driving, the frequency is not increased.)
This function is designed to increase speed
automatically under light load, for example to minimize
the incoming/outgoing time in a multi-story parking lot.

· By setting "100" in Pr. 291, pulse train input can be output at pulse train output (terminal FM) as it is.
Synchronous speed operation of multiple inverters can be enabled by daisy chain connection.
· Since maximum pulse train output is maximum of 50k pulse/s, set "125" in Pr. 384 of the inverter receiving pulse train.
· When operating two or more inverters synchronously, perform wiring according to the following steps. (so that 24V
contact input will not be applied to terminal FM)
1) Set pulse train output (a value other than "0, 1") in Pr. 291 of the master side inverter.
2) Turn OFF the inverter power

⋅
(4) Overspeed detection (Pr. 285 )
⋅If (detection frequency) - (output frequency) > Pr. 285 under encoder feedback control, E.MB1 occurs and the inverter

Using the set point (frequency at which stable speed
operation is performed) as reference, set the higher and
lower setting range. Normally, set the frequency
converted from the slip amount (r/min) of the rated motor
speed (rated load). If the setting is too large, response
becomes slow.
Example: Rated speed of a 4-pole motor is 1740r/min (60Hz)
Slip Nsp = Synchronous speed - Rated speed Frequency equivalent to slip (fsp)

Pr. 368 Setting Description
Pr. 368 > 1 Although the response becomes faster, overcurrent or unstable rotation is liable to occur.
1 < Pr. 368 Although the response becomes slower, the motor rotation becomes stable.
CAUTION
⋅The encoder should be coupled on the same axis with the motor shaft without any mechanical looseness with a speed ratio of
1 to 1.
⋅During acceleration/deceleration, encoder feedback control is not performed to prevent unstable phenomenon such as hunting.
⋅Encoder feedback control is performed once output frequency has reached within [set frequency] ± [speed feedback range].
⋅If the following conditions occur during encoder feedback control, the inverter operates at the frequency within [set speed] ±
[speed feedback range] without coming to trip nor tracking the motor speed.
⋅ The pulse signals are not received from the encoder due to a signal loss, etc.
⋅ The accurate pulse signal from the encoder cannot be detected due to induction noise, etc.
⋅ The motor has been forcibly accelerated (regeneration) or decelerated (motor lock or the like) by large external force.
⋅For the motor with brake, use the RUN signal (inverter running) to open the brake. (The brake may not be opened if the FU
(output frequency detection) signal is used.)
⋅Do not turn OFF the external power supply of the encoder during encoder feedback control. Encoder feedback control
functions abnormally.

4.25.7 Regeneration avoidance function (Pr. 665, Pr. 882 to Pr. 886)
(1) What is regeneration avoidance function? (Pr. 882, Pr. 883)
⋅When the regenerative status is serious, the DC bus voltage rises and an overvoltage fault (E. OV) may occur.
When this bus voltage rise is detected and the bus voltage level reaches or exceeds Pr. 883, increasing the
frequency avoids the regenerative status.
⋅For regeneration avoidance operation, you can select whether it is always activated or activated only at a constant
speed.
⋅Setting Pr. 882 to "1, 2" validates the regeneration avoidance function.
This function detects a regenerative status and increases the frequency to avoid the regenerative status.
Possible to avoid regeneration by automatically increasing the frequency and continue operation if the fan
happens to rotate faster than the set speed due to the effect of another fan in the same duct.

When the input voltage is 220VAC (440VAC), the bus voltage is about 311VDC (622VDC).
However, it varies with the input power supply waveform.
⋅The Pr. 883 setting should be kept higher than the DC bus voltage level. Otherwise, the regeneration avoidance function is
always ON even in the non-regeneration status and the frequency increases.
⋅While overvoltage stall ( ) is activated only during deceleration and stops the decrease in output frequency, the regeneration
avoidance function is always ON (Pr. 882 = 1) or activated only during a constant speed (Pr. 882 = 2) and increases the
frequency according to the regeneration amount.

Special operation and frequency control
(2) To detect the regenerative status during deceleration faster (Pr. 884)
⋅As the regeneration avoidance function cannot respond to an abrupt voltage change by detection of the bus
voltage level, the ratio of bus voltage change is detected to stop deceleration if the bus voltage is less than Pr. 883
Regeneration avoidance operation level.
Set that detectable bus voltage change ratio to Pr. 884 as detection sensitivity.
Increasing the setting raises the detection sensitivity.
(4) Regeneration avoidance function adjustment (Pr. 665, Pr. 886)
⋅If the frequency becomes unstable during regeneration avoidance operation, decrease the setting of Pr. 886
Regeneration avoidance voltage gain. Reversely, if sudden regeneration causes an overvoltage alarm, increase the
setting.
⋅When vibration is not suppressed by decreasing the Pr. 886 Regeneration avoidance voltage gain setting, set a smaller
value in Pr. 665 Regeneration avoidance frequency gain.
CAUTION
Too small setting (low detection sensitivity) will disable detection, and too large setting will turn ON the regeneration avoidance
function if the bus voltage is varied by an input power change, etc.
(3) Limit regeneration avoidance operation frequency
(Pr. 885)
You can limit the output frequency compensated for (increased) by
the regeneration avoidance function.
⋅The frequency is limited to the output frequency (frequency prior to
regeneration avoidance operation) + Pr. 885 Regeneration avoidance
compensation frequency limit value during acceleration or constant
speed. If the frequency increased by regeneration avoidance
function exceeds the limit value during deceleration, the limit value
is held until the output frequency falls to 1/2 of Pr. 885.
⋅When the frequency increased by regeneration avoidance function
has reached Pr. 1 Maximum frequency, it is limited to the maximum
frequency.
⋅When Pr. 885="9999," the regeneration avoidance compensation
frequency limit is disabled.
CAUTION
⋅When regeneration avoidance operation is performed, (overvoltage stall) is displayed and the OL signal is output. Set the
operation pattern at an OL signal output using Pr.156 Stall prevention operation selection. Set the output timing of the OL signal
using Pr.157 OL signal output timer.
⋅When regeneration avoidance operation is performed, stall prevention is also activated.
⋅The regeneration avoidance function cannot shorten the actual deceleration time taken to stop the motor. The actual
deceleration time depends on the regeneration energy consumption capability. When shortening the deceleration time,
consider using the regeneration unit (FR-BU2, BU, FR-BU, MT-BU5, FR-CV, FR-HC, MT-HC) or the brake resistor (FR-ABR,
etc.) to consume regeneration energy at constant speed.
⋅When using the regeneration unit (FR-BU2, BU, FR-BU, MT-BU5, FR-CV, FR-HC, MT-HC) or the brake resistor (FR-ABR, etc.),
set Pr. 882 to "0 (initial value)" (regeneration avoidance function invalid). When using the regeneration unit, etc. to consume
regeneration energy at deceleration, set Pr. 882 to "2" (regeneration avoidance function valid only at a constant speed).
⋅Under vector control, unusual noise may be generated from the motor during deceleration when using regeneration avoidance
function. To prevent this, make gain adjustment, e.g. by performing easy gain tuning. (Refer to page 105)

Reset method of protective function
When a fault occurs in the inverter, the inverter trips and the PU display automatically changes to one of the following
fault or alarm indications.
If the fault does not correspond to any of the following faults or if you have any other problem, please contact your sales
representative.
•Retention of fault output signal ................ When the magnetic contactor (MC) provided on the input side of the
inverter is opened when a fault occurs, the inverter's control power will be
lost and the fault output will not be held.
•Fault or alarm indication .......................... When a fault or alarm occurs, the operation panel display automatically
switches to the fault or alarm indication
•Resetting method..................................... When a fault occurs, the inverter output is kept stopped. Unless reset,
therefore, the inverter cannot restart. (Refer to page 402.)
•When any fault occurs, take the appropriate corrective action, then reset the inverter, and resume operation.
Not doing so may lead to the inverter fault and damage.
Inverter fault or alarm indications are roughly categorized as below.
(1) Error message
A message regarding operational fault and setting fault by the operation panel (FR-DU07) and parameter unit (FR-
PU04 /FR-PU07) is displayed. The inverter does not trip.
(2) Warning
The inverter does not trip even when a warning is displayed. However, failure to take appropriate measures will
lead to a fault.
(3) Alarm
The inverter does not trip. You can also output an alarm signal by making parameter setting.
(4) Fault
When a fault occurs, the inverter trips and a fault signal is output.
5.1 Reset method of protective function
The inverter can be reset by performing any of the following operations. Note that the internal thermal integrated value
of the electronic thermal relay function and the number of retries are cleared (erased) by resetting the inverter.
Inverter recovers about 1s after the reset is released.
REMARKS
· Past eight faults can be displayed using the setting dial. (Refer to page 399 for the operation.)
Operation 1: ..... Using the operation panel, press to reset the inverter.
(This may only be performed when a fault occurs. (Refer to page 408 for
fault.))
Operation 2: ...... Switch power OFF once, then switch it ON again.
Operation 3: . .... Turn ON the reset signal (RES) for more than 0.1s. (If the RES signal is
kept ON, "Err." appears (flickers) to indicate that the inverter is in a
reset status.)

Inspection item
The inverter is a static unit mainly consisting of semiconductor devices. Daily inspection must be performed to prevent
any fault from occurring due to the adverse effects of the operating environment, such as temperature, humidity, dust,
dirt and vibration, changes in the parts with time, service life, and other factors.
• Precautions for maintenance and inspection
For some short time after the power is switched OFF, a high voltage remains in the smoothing capacitor. When
accessing the inverter for inspection, wait for at least 10 minutes after the power supply has been switched OFF, and
then make sure that the voltage across the main circuit terminals P/+ and N/− of the inverter is not more than 30VDC
using a tester, etc.

6.1.4 Display of the life of the inverter parts
The self-diagnostic alarm is output when the life span of the control circuit capacitor, cooling fan, each parts of the
inrush current limit circuit is near its end. It gives an indication of replacement time .
The life alarm output can be used as a guideline for life judgement.
Refer to page 386 to perform the life check of the inverter parts.
6.1.5 Checking the inverter and converter modules
<Preparation>
(1) Disconnect the external power supply cables (R/L1, S/L2, T/L3) and motor cables (U, V, W).
(2) Prepare a tester. (Use 100Ω range.)
<Checking method>
Change the polarity of the tester alternately at the inverter terminals R/L1, S/L2, T/L3, U, V, W, P/+ and N/−, and check
for conduction.
<Module device numbers and terminals to be checked>
(Assumes the use of an analog meter.)
6.1.6 Cleaning
Always run the inverter in a clean status.
When cleaning the inverter, gently wipe dirty areas with a soft cloth immersed in neutral detergent or ethanol.
Parts Judgement Level
Main circuit capacitor 85% of the initial capacity
Control circuit capacitor Estimated 10% life remaining
Inrush current limit circuit Estimated 10% life remaining (Power on: 100,000 times left)
Cooling fan Less than 50% of the predetermined speed
CAUTION
1. Before measurement, check that the smoothing capacitor is discharged.
2. At the time of electric discontinuity, due to the smoothing capacitor, the tester may not indicate ∞. At the time of electric
continuity, the measured value is several to several ten's-of ohms depending on the module type, circuit tester type, etc. If all
measured values are almost the same, the modules are without fault.

PRECAUTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
6.1.7 Replacement of parts
The inverter consists of many electronic parts such as semiconductor devices.
The following parts may deteriorate with age because of their structures or physical characteristics, leading to reduced
performance or fault of the inverter. For preventive maintenance, the parts must be replaced periodically.
Use the life check function as a guidance of parts replacement.
*1 Estimated lifespan for when the yearly average surrounding air temperature is 40°C
(without corrosive gas, flammable gas, oil mist, dust and dirt etc)
*2 Output current : 80% of the inverter rated current
(1) Cooling fan
The replacement interval of the cooling fan used for cooling the parts generating heat such as the main circuit
semiconductor is greatly affected by the surrounding air temperature. When unusual noise and/or vibration is noticed
during inspection, the cooling fan must be replaced immediately.

(3) Smoothing capacitors
A large-capacity aluminum electrolytic capacitor is used for smoothing in the main circuit DC section, and an aluminum
electrolytic capacitor is used for stabilizing the control power in the control circuit. Their characteristics are deteriorated
by the adverse effects of ripple currents, etc.
The replacement intervals greatly vary with the surrounding air temperature and operating conditions. When the
inverter is operated in air-conditioned, normal environment conditions, replace the capacitors about every 10 years.
The appearance criteria for inspection are as follows:
1) Case: Check the side and bottom faces for expansion
2) Sealing plate: Check for remarkable warp and extreme crack.
3) Check for external crack, discoloration, fluid leakage, etc. Judge that the capacitor has reached its life when the
measured capacitance of the capacitor reduced below 80% of the rating.
Refer to page 386 to perform the life check of the main circuit capacitor.
(4) Relays
To prevent a contact fault, etc., relays must be replaced according to the cumulative number of switching times
(switching life).
6.1.8 Inverter replacement
The inverter can be replaced with the control circuit wiring kept connected. Before replacement, remove the wiring
cover of the inverter.
1) Loosen the two mounting screws in both ends of the control circuit terminal block. (These screws cannot be removed.)
Pull down the terminal block from behind the control circuit terminals.
2) Using care not to bend the pins of the inverter's control circuit connector, reinstall the control circuit terminal block
and fix it with the mounting screws.
CAUTION
Before starting inverter replacement, switch power OFF, wait for at least 10 minutes, and then check the voltage with a tester and
such to ensure safety.

PRECAUTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
6.2 Measurement of main circuit voltages, currents and powers
Since the voltages and currents on the inverter power supply and output sides include harmonics, measurement data
depends on the instruments used and circuits measured.
When instruments for commercial frequency are used for measurement, measure the following circuits with the
instruments given on the next page.
When installing meters etc. on the inverter output side
When the inverter-to-motor wiring length is large, especially in the 400V class, small-capacity models, the meters
and CTs may generate heat due to line-to-line leakage current. Therefore, choose the equipment which has enough
allowance for the current rating.
When measuring and indicating the output voltage and output current of the inverter, it is recommended to utilize the
terminals AM and FM output function of the inverter.

Measuring points and instruments
*1 Use an FFT to measure the output voltage accurately. A tester or general measuring instrument cannot measure accurately.
*2 When the carrier frequency exceeds 5kHz, do not use this instrument since using it may increase eddy-current losses produced in metal parts
inside the instrument, leading to burnout. If the wiring length between the inverter and motor is long, the instrument and CT may generate heat
due to line-to-line leakage current.
*3 When the setting of Pr. 195 ABC1 terminal function selection is positive logic
*4 A digital power meter (designed for inverter) can also be used to measure.

PRECAUTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
6.2.1 Measurement of powers
Use digital power meters (for inverter) for the both of inverter input and output side. Alternatively, measure using
electrodynamic type single-phase wattmeters for the both of inverter input and output side in two-wattmeter or three-
wattmeter method. As the current is liable to be imbalanced especially in the input side, it is recommended to use the
three-wattmeter method.
Examples of measured value differences produced by different measuring meters are shown below.
An error will be produced by difference between measuring instruments, e.g. power calculation type and two- or three-
wattmeter type three-phase wattmeter. When a CT is used in the current measuring side or when the meter contains a
PT on the voltage measurement side, an error will also be produced due to the frequency characteristics of the CT and
PT.
6.2.2 Measurement of voltages and use of PT
(1) Inverter input side
As the input side voltage has a sine wave and it is extremely small in distortion, accurate measurement can be made
with an ordinary AC meter.
(2) Inverter output side
Since the output side voltage has a PWM-controlled rectangular wave, always use a rectifier type voltmeter. A needle
type tester cannot be used to measure the output side voltage as it indicates a value much greater than the actual
value. A moving-iron type meter indicates an effective value which includes harmonics and therefore the value is larger
than that of the fundamental wave. The value monitored on the operation panel is the inverter-controlled voltage itself.
Hence, that value is accurate and it is recommended to monitor values (provide analog output) using the operation
panel.
(3) PT
No PT can be used in the output side of the inverter. Use a direct-reading meter. (A PT can be used in the input side of
the inverter.)

6.2.3 Measurement of currents
Use a moving-iron type meter on both the input and output sides of the inverter. However, if the carrier frequency
exceeds 5kHz, do not use that meter since an overcurrent losses produced in the internal metal parts of the meter will
increase and the meter may burn out. In this case, use an approximate-effective value type.
As the inverter input side current is easily imbalanced, measurement of currents in all three phases is recommended.
Correct values cannot be measured in one or two phases. On the other hand, the phase imbalanced ratio of the output
side current must be within 10%.
When using a clamp ammeter, always use an effective value detection type. A mean value detection type produces a
large error and may indicate an extremely smaller value than the actual value. The value monitored on the operation
panel is accurate if the output frequency varies, and it is recommended to monitor values (provide analog output) using
the operation panel.
An example of the measured value difference produced by different measuring meters is shown below.
6.2.4 Use of CT and transducer
A CT may be used in both the input and output sides of the inverter, but the one used should have the largest possible
VA ability because an error will increase if the frequency gets lower.
When using a transducer, use the effective value calculation type which is immune to harmonics.
6.2.5 Measurement of inverter input power factor
Use the effective power and apparent power to calculate the inverter input power factor. A power-factor meter cannot
indicate an exact value.
[Measurement conditions]
Value indicated by moving-iron type ammeter is 100%.

PRECAUTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
6.2.6 Measurement of converter output voltage (across terminals P/+ - N/-)
The output voltage of the converter is developed across terminals P/+ and N/- and can be measured with a moving-coil
type meter (tester). Although the voltage varies according to the power supply voltage, approximately 270V to 300V
(approximately 540V to 600V for the 400V class) is output when no load is connected and voltage decreases when a
load is connected.
When regenerative energy is returned from the motor during deceleration, for example, the converter output voltage
rises to nearly 400V to 450V (800V to 900V for the 400V class) maximum.
6.2.7 Measurement of inverter output frequency
A pulse train proportional to the output frequency is output across the frequency meter signal output terminal FM-SD of
the inverter. This pulse train output can be counted by a frequency counter, or a meter (moving-coil type voltmeter) can
be used to read the mean value of the pulse train output voltage. When a meter is used to measure the output
frequency, approximately 5VDC is indicated at the maximum frequency.
For detailed specifications of the frequency meter signal output terminal FM, refer to page 263.
6.2.8 Insulation resistance test using megger
For the inverter, conduct the insulation resistance test on the main circuit only as shown below and do not perform the
test on the control circuit. (Use a 500VDC megger.)
6.2.9 Pressure test
Do not conduct a pressure test. Deterioration may occur.
CAUTION
• Before performing the insulation resistance test on the external circuit, disconnect the cables from all terminals of the
inverter so that the test voltage is not applied to the inverter.
• For the conduction test of the control circuit, use a tester (high resistance range) and do not use the megger or buzzer.

*3 Power (current) at 50Hz/60Hz.
*4 Since a motor with brake has a window for gap check, the protective structure of both the cooling fan section and brake section is IP20. S of IP23S is an
additional code indicating the condition that protection from water intrusion is established only when a cooling fan is not operating.
*5 The value when high carrier frequency is set (Pr.72 = 6, Pr.240 = 0).
*6 The 12V power supply or the control terminal option (FR-A7PS) is required as the power supply for the encoder.
*7 The cooling fan is equipped with a thermal protector. The cooling fan stops when the coil temperature exceeds the specified value in order to protect the fan
motor. A restrained cooling fan or degraded fan motor insulation could be causes for the rise in coil temperature.The cooling fan re-starts when the coil
temperature drops to normal.

Heatsink protrusion attachment
procedure
7.5 Heatsink protrusion attachment procedure
When encasing the inverter in an enclosure, the generated heat amount in an enclosure can be greatly reduced by
installing the heatsink portion of the inverter outside the enclosure. When installing the inverter in a compact enclosure,
etc., this installation method is recommended.
7.5.1 When using a heatsink protrusion attachment (FR-A7CN)
For the FR-A720-1.5K to 90K, FR-A740-0.4K to 132K, a heatsink can be protruded outside the enclosure using a
heatsink protrusion attachment (FR-A7CN). (For the FR-A740-160K or higher, attachment is not necessary when the
heatsink is to be protruded.)
For a panel cut dimension drawing and an installation procedure of the heatsink protrusion attachment (FR-A7CN) to
the inverter, refer to a manual of "heatsink protrusion attachment".
7.5.2 Protrusion of heatsink of the FR-A740-160K or higher
(1) Panel cutting
Cut the panel of the enclosure according to the inverter capacity.

Note that the wiring cover (0.4K to 22K) is not compatible.
(Note that the relay output 2 (A2, B2, C2) specific for the FR-A700 series cannot be used with the FR-A500 series
terminals.)
(3) Instructions for continuous use of the FR-PU04 (parameter unit)
1) For the FR-A700 series, many functions (parameters) have been added. When setting these parameters, the
parameter name and setting range are not displayed. User initial value list and user clear of the HELP function
cannot be used.
2) For the FR-A700 series, many protective functions have been added. These functions activate, but all faults
are displayed as "Fault 14". When the faults history has been checked, "E.14" appears. Added faults display
will not appear on the parameter unit.
3) User initial value setting cannot be used.
4) User registration/clear (user group 2) cannot be used.
5) Parameter copy/verification function cannot be used.

*1 These instruction codes are used for parameter read and write by using Mitsubishi inverter protocol with the RS-485 communication.
(Refer to page 333 for RS-485 communication)
*2 Validity and invalidity according to operation mode are as follows:
:Usable parameter
×:Unusable parameter
Δ:Parameters available only during position control set by parameter
*3 "" indicates valid and "×" indicates invalid of "parameter copy", "parameter clear", and "all parameter clear".
*4 Parameters can be used with conditions. Refer to page 203 for details.
*5 These parameters are communication parameters that are not cleared when parameter clear (all clear) is executed from RS-485 communication.
(Refer to page 328 for RS-485 communication)
*6 When a communication option is installed, parameter clear (lock release) during password lock (Pr. 297 ≠ 9999) can be performed only from the
communication option.
Symbols in the table indicate parameters which function when an option is mounted.

FR-A700 Series
Instruction Manual Supplement
The FR-A700 series that has the SERIAL on page 24 or later are compatible with the following
specifications. Check the serial number printed on the rating plate of the inverter.
In the following sections, indicates the functions that are driven by PM sensorless vector control.
1 PM sensorless vector control
sIPt
Highly efficient motor control and highly accurate motor speed control can be performed by using the inverter with an
IPM (internal permanent magnet) motor, which is more efficient than an induction motor.
The motor speed is calculated based on the output voltage and current from the inverter. It does not require a speed
detector such as an encoder. The inverter drives the IPM motor with the least required current when a load is applied
in order to achieve the highest motor efficiency.
Purpose Parameters to be Set Refer to Page
To perform IPM parameter initialization IPM parameter initialization Pr. 998 4
To select the torque characteristic in a
low-speed range.

POINT
The following conditions must be met to perform PM sensorless vector control.
· For the motor model, IPM motor must be used.
· The motor capacity must be equal to or one rank lower than the inverter capacity.
· Single-motor operation (one motor run by one inverter) must be performed.
· The overall wiring length with the motor must be 100m or less. (When the wiring length exceeds 30m,
offline auto tuning must be performed.)
CAUTION
· The speed setting range for an MM-CF IPM motor is between 0 and 200Hz.
· The carrier frequency is limited during PM sensorless vector control. (Refer to page 16)
· Constant-speed operation cannot be performed in the low-speed range of 200r/min or less under current
synchronization operation. (Refer to page 14)
· During PM sensorless vector control, the RUN signal is output about 100ms after turning ON the start command (STF,
STR). The delay is due to the magnetic pole detection.
· During PM sensorless vector control, the automatic restart after instantaneous power failure function operates only
when an MM-CF IPM motor is connected. When a built-in brake or a regeneration unit is used, the frequency search
may not be available at 2200r/min or higher. The restart operation cannot be performed until the motor speed drops to
a frequency where the frequency search is available.

(1) IPM parameter initialization (Pr.998)
· To use a motor capacity that is one rank lower than the inverter capacity, set Pr.80 Motor capacity before
performing IPM parameter initialization. By performing IPM parameter initialization, initial settings required
to drive an IPM motor are set in parameters.
· When Pr. 998 = "3003," the monitor is displayed and the frequency is set using the motor rotations per
minute. To use frequency to display or set, set Pr. 998 = "3103."
·Set Pr. 998 = "0" to change the PM sensorless vector control parameter settings to the parameter settings
required to drive a general-purpose motor.
· When using an IPM motor other than MM-CF, set Pr. 998 = "8009 or 8109" to select the parameter settings
required to perform PM sensorless vector control. The setting can be made after performing offline auto
tuning for an IPM motor.

REMARKS
· Make sure to set Pr. 998 before setting other parameters. If the Pr. 998 setting is changed after setting other
parameters, some of those parameters will be initialized too. (Refer to "(2) " for the parameters that are initialized.)
· To change back to the parameter settings required to drive a general-purpose motor, perform parameter clear or all
parameter clear.
· If the setting of Pr. 998 IPM parameter initialization is changed from "3003, 8009 (rotations per minute)" to "3103, 8109
(frequency)," or from "3103, 8109" to "3003, 8009," all the target parameters are initialized.
The purpose of Pr. 998 is not to change the display units. Use Pr. 144 Speed setting switchover to change the display
units between rotations per minute and frequency. Pr. 144 enables switching of display units between rotations per
minute and frequency without initializing the parameter settings.
Example) Changing the Pr. 144 setting between "6" and "106" switches the display units between frequency and
rotations per minute.
· To perform PM sensorless vector control on an IPM motor other than MM-CF, contact your sales representative.

The offline auto tuning for an IPM motor enables the optimal operation of an IPM motor.
What is offline auto tuning?
Under PM sensorless vector control, setting motor constants automatically (offline auto tuning) enables
optimal operation of motors even when motor constants vary or when the wiring distance is long. The offline
auto tuning also enables the operation with an IPM motor other than MM-CF.

*1 Initial values differ according to the inverter capacity. (55K or lower/75K or higher)
*2 The initial value differs according to the voltage level. (200V/400V)
(1) Before performing offline auto tuning
Check the following before performing offline auto tuning.
· The PM sensorless vector control should be selected.
· A motor should be connected. Note that the motor should be at a stop at a tuning start.
·The motor capacity should be equal to or one rank lower than the inverter capacity.
· The maximum frequency under PM sensorless vector control should be 300Hz.
· Even if tuning is performed without motor running (Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status = "11"), the motor may
run slightly. Therefore, fix the motor securely with a mechanical brake, or before tuning, make sure that
there will be no problem in safety if the motor runs. (Caution is required especially in vertical lift
applications). Note that if the motor runs slightly, tuning performance is unaffected.
· Tuning is not available during position control under PM sensorless vector control.

POINT
· The settings are valid only under the PM sensorless vector control.
· When the wiring length between the inverter and the motor is long (30m or longer as a reference), use the
offline auto tuning function to drive the motor in the optimum operation characteristic.
· The offline auto tuning enables the operation with an IPM motor other than MM-CF.
· Tuning is enabled even when a load is connected to the motor. (As the load is lighter, tuning accuracy is higher.
Tuning accuracy does not change even if the inertia is large.)
· Reading/writing of motor constants tuned by offline auto tuning are enabled. You can copy the offline auto
tuning data (motor constants) to another inverter with the PU (FR-DU07/FR-PU07).
· The offline auto tuning status can be monitored with the PU (FR-DU07/FR-PU07/FR-PU04).
· Do not connect a surge voltage suppression filter (FR-ASF-H/FR-BMF-H) to the 55K or lower and sine wave
filter (MT-BSL/BSC) to the 75K or higher between the inverter and motor.

REMARKS
· To perform offline auto tuning on an IPM motor other than MM-CF, contact your sales representative.
CAUTION
· Before performing tuning, check the monitor display of the operation panel (FR-DU07) or parameter unit (FR-PU04/
FR-PU07) if the inverter is in the state ready for tuning. (Refer to 2) below) Turning ON the start command while
tuning is unavailable starts the motor.
REMARKS
· Satisfy the required inverter start conditions to start offline auto tuning. For example, stop the input of MRS signal.
· To force tuning to end, use the MRS or RES signal or press on the operation panel.
(Turning the start signal (STF signal or STR signal) OFF also ends tuning.)
· During offline auto tuning, only the following I/O signals are valid (initial value):
· Input signals <valid signal> STOP, OH, MRS, RT, RES, STF, STR
· Output terminal RUN, OL, IPF, FM, AM, A1B1C1
Note that the progress status of offline auto tuning is output in fifteen steps from AM and FM when speed and
output frequency are selected.
· Do not perform ON/OFF switching of the second function selection signal (RT) during execution of offline auto
tuning. Auto tuning is not executed properly.
· Setting offline auto tuning (Pr. 96 Auto tuning setting/status = "1 or 11") will make pre-excitation invalid.
CAUTION
· Since the RUN signal turns ON when tuning is started, caution is required especially when a sequence which
releases a mechanical brake by the RUN signal has been designed.
· When executing offline auto tuning, input the run command after switching ON the main circuit power (R/L1, S/L2,
T/L3) of the inverter.
·While Pr. 79 = "7," turn the X12 signal ON to tune in the PU operation mode.

2)Monitor is displayed on the operation panel (FR-DU07) and parameter unit (FR-PU07/FR-PU04) during
tuning as below.
3)When offline auto tuning ends, press of the operation panel during PU operation. For External
operation, turn OFF the start signal (STF signal or STR signal).
This operation resets the offline auto tuning and the PU's monitor display returns to the normal indication.
(Without this operation, next operation cannot be started.)
4)If offline auto tuning ended in error (see the table below), motor constants are not set.
Perform an inverter reset and restart tuning.
5)When tuning is ended forcibly by pressing or turning OFF the start signal (STF or STR) during
tuning, offline auto tuning does not end properly. (The motor constants have not been set.)
Perform an inverter reset and restart tuning.

REMARKS
· The motor constants measured once in the offline auto tuning are stored as parameters and their data are held
until the offline auto tuning is performed again.
· Changing Pr. 96 setting from "3 or 13" after tuning completion will invalidate the tuning data. In this case, tune
again.

92 Converter output voltage has reached 75%

93 Calculation error
A motor is not connected. Check the motor wiring and make setting again.
CAUTION
· An instantaneous power failure occurring during tuning will result in a tuning error.
After power is restored, the inverter goes into the normal operation mode. Therefore, when STF (STR) signal is
ON, the motor runs in the forward (reverse) rotation.
· Any alarm occurring during tuning is handled as in the ordinary mode. Note that even if a retry operation has been
set, retry is not performed.
· The set frequency monitor displayed during the offline auto tuning is 0Hz.
CAUTION
Note that the motor may start running suddenly.

(4) Utilizing or changing offline auto tuning data
The data measured in the offline auto tuning can be read and utilized or changed.
<Operating procedure>
1)Set Pr. 71 according to the motor used.
2) In the parameter setting mode, read the following parameters and set desired values.
The display units of the read motor constants can be changed with Pr. 684 Tuning data unit switchover.

(1) Setting procedure
(2) Select the control method
Refer to Chapter 4 of the Instruction Manual (Applied) for the detail of the position control.
-In position control, speed commands, which are calculated to eliminate the difference between the
command pulse (parameter setting) and the estimated feedback pulse, are output to rotate the motor.
-This inverter can perform simple position feed by contact input, position control by inverter simple pulse
input, and position control by FR-A7AL pulse train input.
CAUTION
The carrier frequency is limited during PM sensorless vector control. (Refer to page 16.)
Position deviation may occur due to motor temperature changes. In such case, shut off the inverter outputs, and restart.
The Z-phase outputs cannot be made under PM sensorless vector control. When Pr.419 = "1" is set to send positioning
commands in pulses via a programmable controller positioning module and FR-A7AL, use the home position return
operation that does not require Z-phase signals.

(1) When the low-speed range torque characteristic is enabled ("9999" (initial value))
· The high frequency superposition control provides enough torque in the low-speed range operation.
· Refer to page 17 for the torque characteristics.
(2) When the low-speed range torque characteristic is disabled ("0")
· The current synchronization operation reduces much motor noise compared with the high frequency superposition
control.
· The torque in a low-speed range is low. Use this setting for an operation with light start-up load.
· Refer to page 17 for the torque characteristics.

2 Voltage reduction selection during stall prevention operation (Pr.154)
(1) To further prevent a trip (Pr. 154)
When Pr. 154 is set to "0, 10", the output voltage reduces during stall prevention operation. By making this
setting, an overcurrent trip becomes less likely to occur. Use this function when torque reduction does not pose
a problem.
Set Pr.154 = "10, 11" when the overvoltage protective function (E.OV) activates during stall prevention
operation in an application with large load inertia. Note that turning OFF the start signal (STF/STR) or
varying the frequency signal during stall prevention operation may delay the acceleration/deceleration
start.
(2) Causes and corrective actions
The setting values "10 and 11" are added for Pr.154 Voltage reduction selection during stall prevention operation.

Description
If regenerative energy causes the inverter's internal main circuit DC voltage to reach or exceed the
specified value, the protective circuit is activated to stop the inverter output. The circuit may also be
activated by a surge voltage produced in the power supply system.
Check point
· Check for too slow acceleration. (e.g. during descending acceleration with lifting load)
· Check if Pr.22 Stall prevention operation level is set too low like the no-load current.
Check if the stall prevention operation is frequently activated in an application with a large
load inertia.
Corrective action
· Decrease the acceleration time.
· Use the regeneration avoidance function (Pr. 882 to Pr. 886). ( Refer to Chapter 4 of the Instruction
Manual (Applied).)
· Set a value larger than the no load current in Pr. 22 Stall prevention operation level.

value of the parameter setting range. For example, Pr.7 = "361.0s" when 0.1s increment is selected, and Pr.7 =
"360.00s" when 0.01s increment is selected.

Instruction Manual Supplement
When installing a thermal relay to the cooling fan of the vector-control dedicated motors (SF-
V5RU), use the following recommended thermal relay settings.
-200V class (Mitsubishi dedicated motor [SF-V5RU (1500r/min series)])
-400V class (Mitsubishi dedicated motor [SF-V5RUH (1500r/min series)])
*1 Power (current) at 50Hz/60Hz.
*2 The cooling fan is equipped with a thermal protector. The cooling fan stops when the coil temperature exceeds
the specified value in order to protect the fan motor. A restrained cooling fan or degraded fan motor insulation
may causes the rise in coil temperature. The fan motor re-starts when the coil temperature drops to normal.
*3 The voltage and input values are the standard specifications of the cooling fan in free air. When the cooling fan
is used with a motor, it requires more energy to perform its work, and thus the above input values become
slightly larger. The cooling fan can, however, be used as it is without causing problems. When a thermal relay is
to be prepared at the customer's side, use the recommended thermal relay settings.
