Non-rotating Autotuning (T1-01 = 1)
Non-rotating autotuning can be used for Open Loop and Closed Loop Vector control only. Set T1-01 to 1,
input the data from the motor nameplate, and then press the RUN key on the Digital Operator. The inverter
will supply power to the non-rotating motor for approximately 1 minute and some of the motor parameters
will be set automatically. The remaining motor parameters will be set automatically during the first time operation.
Non-rotating Autotuning for Line-to-Line Resistance (T1-01 = 2)
Non-rotating autotuning for line-to-line resistance can be used in any control mode. This is the only possible
autotuning for V/f control.
To perform autotuning in V/f control, set T1-02 (Motor rated power) and T1-04 (Motor rated current) and then
press the RUN key on the Digital Operator. The Inverter will supply power to the non-rotating motor for
approximately 20 seconds and the Motor line-to-line resistance and cable resistance will be automatically
measured.
• Precautions Before Using Autotuning
Read the following precautions before using autotuning.
• Use non-rotating autotuning whenever the load cannot be disconnected from the motor (e.g. the ropes can’t
be removed).
• Use rotating autotuning whenever performing autotuning when high precision is required or for a motor
that is not connected to a load.
• If the wiring between the Inverter and motor changes by 50 m or more perform non-rotating autotuning for
line-to-line resistance.
• If the motor cable is long (50 m or longer), perform non-rotating autotuning for line-to-line resistance.
• If a mechanical brake is used, make sure that it is not opened for non-rotating autotuning. Make sure that it
is opened for rotating autotuning.
• Power will be supplied to the motor when non-rotating autotuning is performed even though the motor will
not turn. Do not touch the motor until autotuning has been completed.
• To cancel autotuning, press the STOP key on the Digital Operator.
•Precautions for Rotating and Non-rotating Autotuning
If the motor rated voltage is higher than the power supply voltage, lower the base voltage value like shown in
Fig 5.52 to prevent saturation of the Inverter’s output voltage. Use the following procedure to perform autotuning:
1. Input the voltage of the input power supply to T1-03 (Motor rated voltage).
2. Input the results of the following formula to T1-05 (Motor base frequency):
T1-03
T1-05 = Base frequency from motor nameplate × ----------------------------------------------
Motor rated voltage
3. Perform autotuning.
