Analog Input Settings

The inverter has the capability to accept an external analog input that can command the

output frequency to the motor. Voltage input (0 –10V) and current input (4–20mA) are

available on separate terminals (“O” and “OI,” respectively). The analog input settings

add scaling and offset adjustments between the analog input and the frequency output.

In the graph below (left), A13 and A14 select the active portion of the input voltage or

current range. The parameters A11 and A12 select the start and end frequency of the

converted output frequency range, respectively. Together, these four parameters define a

line segment as shown (below, right). When the line does not begin at the origin, A15

defines whether the inverter outputs 0Hz or the A11frequency when the analog input

value is less than the A13 setting (determines the non-linear part of the translation).
