Running the motor

This chapter takes the new user through all the essential steps to running a motor for the first time, in
each of the possible operating modes.
Ensure that no damage or safety hazard could arise from the motor starting unexpectedly.
WARNING
The values of the motor parameters affect the protection of the motor.
The default values in the drive should not be relied upon.
It is essential that the correct value is entered in Pr 00.046 Rated Current. This affects the
thermal protection of the motor.
CAUTION
If the drive is started using the keypad it will run to the speed defined by the keypad
reference (Pr 02.017). This may not be acceptable depending on the application. The user
must check in Pr 01.017 and ensure that the keypad reference has been set to 0.
CAUTION
If the intended maximum speed affects the safety of the machinery, additional
independent over-speed protection must be used.
