Setting the 50 / 60 Hz selection menu

NOTICE
The 50 / 60 Hz selection menu is visible only on first power-up or after a factory reset
(P0970). You can make a selection using the BOP or exit the menu without making a
selection and the menu will not be displayed unless a factory reset is performed.
The motor base frequency can also be selected by changing P0100 to the desired value.
Functionality
This menu is used to set the motor base frequency according to which region of the world
that the motor is used. The menu determines whether power settings (for example, rated
motor power P0307) are expressed in [kW] or [hp].
