VF motors (intended for use with an inverter) can be operated in lower frequency
ranges than general-purpose motors. If a VF motor is operated in an extremely low
frequency range, however, its cooling efficiency drops. In such a case, set the OL
reduction start frequency parameter  according to the characteristics of the
motor. (See the figure below.)
As a guide, it is advisable to set this parameter around the default value (VF motor 6Hz).

Note)  is enabled when  is set at , , , or .
■Setting the motor overload protection level #1
When the inverter is used for a motor with a capacity or a current rating smaller than that of the
inverter, it is necessary to adjust the motor overload protection level #1 parameter 
according to the rated current of the motor.
When the output current is displayed in %,100% corresponds to the rated output current of the inverter.

The running frequency is displayed. (Make this setting when the
 motor is out of operation.)(If the monitor display mode setting
parameter  is set at [Running frequency])
Press the MON key to call up the first basic parameter

(automatic acceleration/deceleration).
Switch to (extended parameters of from  to

) by pressing the △ or ▽ key.
Press the Enter key to call up the parameter 

(electronic thermal motor protection level 1).
Press the Enter key to display the parameter setting (set

value). (Default setting:  %)
Change the parameter setting to
 = (motor's rated current/inverter's rated output

= 66.0/88.0 x 100)
Press the Enter key to save the change. Then, 
and the set value are displayed alternately.
