Code Description Adjustment range Factory setting<br />
SFt Sw Freq.Type LF-HF1-HF2 LF<br />
Used to select a low switching frequency (LF) or a high switching frequency (HF1 or HF2). HF1<br />
switching is designed for applications with a low load factor without derating the <strong>drive</strong>. If the thermal<br />
state of the <strong>drive</strong> exceeds 95%, the frequency automatically changes to 2 or 4 kHz depending on<br />
the <strong>drive</strong> rating. When the thermal state of the <strong>drive</strong> drops back to 70%, the selected switching<br />
frequency is re-established. HF2 switching is designed for applications with a high load factor with<br />
derating of the <strong>drive</strong> by one rating: the <strong>drive</strong> parameters are scaled automatically (torque limit,<br />
thermal current, etc).<br />
Modifying this parameter results in the following parameters returning to factory<br />
settings :<br />
• nCr, CLI, Sfr, nrd (Drive menu)<br />
• ItH, IdC,Ctd (Adjust menu)<br />
SFr Sw Freq - kHz 0.5-1-2-4 -8-12-16 kHz According to <strong>drive</strong> rating<br />
Used to select the switching frequency. The adjustment range depends on the SFt parameter.<br />
If SFt = LF: 0.5 to 2 or 4 kHz according to the <strong>drive</strong> rating<br />
If SFt = HF1 or HF2: 2 or 4 to 16 kHz according to the <strong>drive</strong> rating<br />
The maximum operating frequency (tFr) is limited according to the switching frequency:<br />
ENGLISH<br />
SFr(kHz) 0.5 1 2 4 8 12 16<br />
tFr (Hz) 62 125 250 500 500 500 500<br />
nrd Noise Reduct no - yes (1)<br />
This function modulates the switching frequency randomly to reduce motor noise.<br />
SPC Special Motor no - yes - PSM no<br />
It should be used for a motor supply in U/f ratio with the IR compensation set via the UFr parameter<br />
in the "Adjust" menu.<br />
No: normal motor<br />
Yes: special motor<br />
PSM: small motor. It inhibits detection of "Uncontrolled loss downstream". Deactivate the function<br />
nLd in the Drive menu for this to operate correctly.<br />
Perform an auto-tune<br />
PGt PG Type INC-DET DET<br />
Defines the type of sensor used when an encoder feedback I/O card is installed:<br />
INC: incremental encoder (A, A+, B, B+ are hard-wired)<br />
DET: detector (only A is hard-wired)<br />
PLS Num. Pulses 1 to 1024 1024<br />
Defines the number of pulses per sensor revolution.<br />
(1) yes if SFt = LF, no if SFt = HF1 or HF2l<br />
The parameters with a grey background appear if a VW3 A58202 I/O extension card<br />
has been installed.<br />
