Jogging Operation

Usually done manually, a jog command from an operator’s panel

 

 

 

 

 

requests the motor/drive system to run indefinitely in a particular

 

 

 

direction, until the machine operator ends the jog operation.

 

Appendix

Jump Frequency

A jump frequency is a point on the inverter output frequency range

 

 

 

 

that you want the inverter to skip around. This feature may be used

 

A

 

to avoid a resonant frequency, and you can program up to three jump

 

 

 

 

 

frequencies in the inverter.

 

 

Line Reactor

A three-phase inductor generally installed in the AC input circuit of

 

 

an inverter to minimize harmonics and to limit short-circuit current.

 

Momentum

The physical property of a body in motion that causes it to remain in

 

 

motion. In the case of motors, the rotor and attached load are rotating

 

 

and possesses angular momentum.

 

Multi-speed

The ability of a motor drive to store preset discrete speed levels for

 

Operation

the motor, and control motor speed according to the currently selected

 

 

speed preset. The Hitachi inverters have 16 preset speeds.

 

Motor Load

In motor terminology, motor load consists of the inertia of the

 

 

physical mass that is moved by the motor and the related friction

 

 

from guiding mechanisms. See also Inertia.

 

NEC

The National Electric Code is a regulatory document that governs

 

 

electrical power and device wiring and installation in the United

 

 

States.

 

NEMA

The National Electric Manufacturer’s Association. NEMA Codes are

 

 

a published series of device ratings standards. Industry uses these to

 

 

evaluate or compare the performance of devices made by various

 

 

manufacturers to a known standard.

 

Open-collector

A common logic-type discrete output that uses an NPN transistor

 

Outputs

that acts as a switch to a power supply common, usually ground. The

 

 

transistor’s collector is open for external connection (not connected

 

 

internally). Thus, the output sinks external load current to ground.

 

Power Factor

A ratio that expresses a phase difference (timing offset) between

 

 

current and voltage supplied by a power source to a load. A perfect

 

 

power factor = 1.0 (no phase offset). Power factors less than one cause

 

 

some energy loss in power transmission wiring (source to load).

 

PID Loop

Proportional - Integral-Derivative - A mathematical model used for

 

 

process control. A process controller maintains a process variable

 

 

(PV) at a setpoint (SP) by using its PID algorithm to compensate for

 

 

dynamic conditions and vary its output to drive the PV toward the

 

 

desired value. For variable-frequency drives, the process variable is

 

 

the motor speed. See also Error.
