This chapter is a step by step guide that will show you the quickest way to get
the motor shaft turning. We will show you two examples, remote control and
local control.
We assume that the VSD is mounted on a wall or in a cabinet as in the chap-
ter SECTION 2 page 13.
First there is general information of how to connect mains, motor and control
cables. The next section describes how to use the function keys on the control
panel. The subsequent examples covering remote control and local control
describe how to program/set the motor data and run the VSD and motor.
Dimension the mains and motor cables according to local regulations. The
cable must be able to carry the VSD load current.
1. Connect the mains cables as in Fig. 32. The VSD has, as standard, a built-
in RFI mains filter that complies with category C3 which suits the Second
Environment standard.
2. Connect the motor cables as in Fig. 32. To comply with the EMC Directive
you have to use screened cables and the motor cable screen has to be
connected on both sides: to the housing of the motor and the housing of
the VSD.
