Frequency converters, also known as variable frequency drives (VFDs), are pivotal in modern motor control and
motion applications.Note
These devices regulate the speed and torque of electric motors by varying the frequency and
voltage of the powerFor

Button functions

Stops the inverter

Single press OFF1 stop reaction: the inverter brings the motor to a standstill in the ramp-
down time set in parameter P1121.
Note:
If configured to be an OFF1 stop, this button is inactive in AUTO mode.
Double press (< 2 s) or OFF2 stop reaction: the inverter allows the motor to coast to a standstill
long press ( > 3 s) without using any ramp-down times.
Starts the inverter

If the inverter is started in HAND / JOG mode, the inverter running icon ( ) displays.
Note:
This button is inactive if the inverter is configured for control from terminals (P0700 = 2, P1000 = 2) and
is in AUTO mode.

5.4 Starting the motor for test run

This section describes how to start the motor for a test run to check that the motor speed
and rotation direction are correct.

Note
To run the motor, the inverter must be in the display menu (default display) and power-on
default state with P0700 (selection of command source) = 1.
If you are now in the setup menu (the inverter displays "P0304"), press for over two
seconds to exit the setup menu and enter the display menu.

You can start the motor in HAND or JOG mode.

Starting the motor in HAND mode

1. Press to start the motor.

2. Press to stop the motor.

Starting the motor in JOG mode

1. Press + to switch from HAND to JOG mode (the . icon flashes).

2. Press to start the motor. Release to stop the motor.
