Thread: Inverter Control
27/03/2012 23:46:26

Hi there.

I have a problem which I am finding impossible to rectify. I have read through the installation manual but cannot find an answer.

I wonder if anyone has had a simalr problem when wiring thier machines.

My problem is: Restricted remote frequency control.

I have a Mitsubishi FR-S500 inverter wired to supply my lathe motor and have recently wired in a remote control panel on the lathe for convenience.

All seems to be working OK except that the remote frequency control (set to EX on inverter) will only increase to 52 hertz when parameters are set to allow up to 90htz. If set to PU, inverter control the full 0-120 is available.

I have used a 1k 1watt potentiometer to control the frequency and have checked the varying voltage across connections 10-2-5 and am getting 0-5v as would be expected.

The parameters I have set are as follows:

P1-90..P2-10..P3-50..P30-1..P59-1..P79-0

Maybe I am asking something outside the parameters of the inverter but surly not.

Any help will be very much appreciated as I am completely flummoxed. Thankyou.
