VFD Parameters Programming / Setting Single Phase to Three Phase VFD

The main VFD program is contained in the processor's firmware & not normally accessible to the variable Wiki
frequency drive user. A parameter is a variable associated with the operation of the VFD that can be Case study
programmed or adjusted. Parameters provide a degree of adjustment so that the user can customize the VFD Market
VFD to suit specific motor & driven equipment requirements. The number of parameters can range from 50,

for small basic VFDs, to over 200 for larger, more complex VFDs. Some variable frequency drives provide
upload/download & parameter copy capability. Common adjustable parameters include the following:

P-00 minimum speed - Use this parameter to set the lowest frequency the VFD will output. Default Variable frequency drive Energy saving
setting is 0. Energy can be saved in a VFD by reducing

P-02 motor overload current - Set this parameter to the motor nameplate full-load ampere rating.
Default setting is 100 percent of the rated VFD current.
P-30 acceleration time - Use this parameter to define the time it will take the VFD to ramp up from 0
Hz to maximum speed. Default setting is 5.0 seconds.

Examples of display parameters include:

d-00 command frequency - This parameter represents the frequency that the VFD is commanded to
output.
d-01 output frequency - This parameter represents the output frequency at the motor terminals.
d-02 output current - This parameter represents the motor current.
d-03 bus voltage - This parameter represents the DC bus voltage level.
