When mounting two or more inverters Horizontal layout is recommended when two or more inverters are to be installed in the same unit or panel. If it is necessary to mount the inverters vertically, install a partition plate or the like between the inverters so that any heat radiating from an inverter will not affect the one/s above.
Page 24
(3) Mounting direction Mount the inverter vertically to the mounting surface and fix it securely with four screws or bolts so that the logo "Jaguar VXR" can be seen from the front. Do not mount the inverter upside down or horizontally. Doing so will reduce the heat dissipation efficiency of the inverter and cause the overheat protection function to operate, so the inverter will not run.
2.3 Wiring Follow the procedure below. (In the following description, the inverter has already been installed.) 2.3.1 Removing and mounting the terminal cover and the main circuit terminal block cover (1) For inverters with a capacity of less than 5.5 kW To remove the terminal cover, put your finger in the dimple of the terminal cover (labeled "PULL"), and then pull it up toward you.

Chapter 4 RUNNING THE MOTOR 4.1 Running the Motor for a Test 4.1.1 Inspection and preparation prior to powering on Check the following prior to powering on. (1) Check if connection is correct. Especially check if the power wires are connected to the inverter input terminals L1/R, L2/S and L3/T or L1/L and L2/N, and output terminals U, V and W respectively and that the grounding wires are connected to the ground electrodes correctly.
4.1.3 Preparation before running the motor for a test--Setting function code data Before running the motor, set function code data specified in Table 4.1 to the motor ratings and your system design values. For the motor, check the rated values printed on the nameplate of the motor. For your system design values, ask system designers about them.
Page 80
2) Selection of tuning process Check the situation of the machine system and choose between "Tuning while the motor is stopped (P04 or A18 = 1)" and "Tuning while the motor is running (P04 or A18 = 2)." In the case of "Tuning while the motor is running (P04 or A18 = 2),"...
Errors during tuning Improper tuning would negatively affect the operation performance and, in the worst case, could even cause hunting or deteriorate precision. Therefore, if the inverter finds any abnormality in the results of the tuning or any error in the process of the tuning, it will display and discard the tuning data.
------------------------------------------------ Test Run Procedure ------------------------------------------------- (1) Turn the power ON and check that the reference frequency Hz is blinking on the LED monitor. (2) Set a low reference frequency such as 5 Hz, using keys. (Check that the frequency is blinking on the LED monitor.) (3) Press the key to start running the motor in the forward direction.

5.2 Overview of Function Codes This section provides an overview of the function codes frequently used for the Jaguar VXR series of inverter. Data Protection F00 specifies whether to protect function code data (except F00) and digital reference data (such as frequency command, PID command and timer operation) from accidentally getting changed by pressing the keys.
Page 100
Data for Function F01, C30 Enable the current input to terminal [C1] (C1 function) (+4 to +20 mA DC, maximum frequency obtained at +20 mA DC). Enable the sum of voltage (0 to +10 VDC) and current inputs (+4 to +20 mA DC) given to terminals [12] and [C1] (C1 function), respectively.
Page 101
Operation Method F02 selects the source that specifies a run command for running the motor. Data for F02 Run Command Source Description Enables the keys to run and stop the motor. Keypad The rotation direction of the motor is specified by (Rotation direction terminal command FWD or REV.

Base Frequency 1 Rated Voltage at Base Frequency 1 Maximum Output Voltage 1 H50, H51 Non-linear V/f Pattern 1 (Frequency and Voltage) H52, H53 Non-linear V/f Pattern 2 (Frequency and Voltage) These function codes specify the base frequency and the voltage at the base frequency essentially required for running the motor properly.
Page 103
Examples: Normal (linear) V/f pattern V/f pattern with two non-linear points Acceleration Time 1 Deceleration Time 1 Acceleration Time 2 Deceleration Time 2 F07 specifies the acceleration time, the length of time the frequency increases from 0 Hz to the maximum frequency. F08 specifies the deceleration time, the length of time the frequency decreases from the maximum frequency down to 0 Hz.
Page 104
• If you choose S-curve acceleration/deceleration or curvilinear acceleration/ deceleration Acceleration/Deceleration Pattern (H07), actual acceleration/deceleration times are longer than the specified times. Refer to the description of H07 for details. • Specifying an improperly short acceleration/deceleration time may activate the current limiter, torque limiter, or anti-regenerative control, resulting in a longer acceleration/deceleration time than the specified one.
Page 105
When the variable torque V/f pattern is selected (F37 = 0 or 3), the output voltage may be low and insufficient voltage output may result in less output torque of the motor at a low frequency zone, depending on some characteristics of the motor itself and load.
Page 106
• Auto torque boost This function automatically optimizes the output voltage to fit the motor with its load. Under light load, auto torque boost decreases the output voltage to prevent the motor from over-excitation. Under heavy load, it increases the output voltage to increase output torque of the motor.
Page 107
The figure below shows operating characteristics of the electronic thermal overload protection α α when F10 = 1. The characteristic factors 1 through 3 as well as their corresponding switching frequencies f and f vary with the characteristics of the motor. The tables below list the factors of the motor selected by P99 (Motor 1 Selection).
Page 108
Thermal time constant (F12) F12 specifies the thermal time constant of the motor. If the current of 150% of the overload detection level specified by F11 flows for the time specified by F12, the electronic thermal overload protection becomes activated to detect the motor overload. The thermal time constant for general-purpose motors is approx.
Page 109
Restart Mode after Momentary Power Failure Restart Mode after Momentary Power Failure, Restart time Restart Mode after Momentary Power Failure, Frequency fall rate Restart Mode after Momentary Power Failure, Allowable momentary power failure time F14 specifies the action to be taken by the inverter such as trip and restart in the event of a momentary power failure.
Page 110
Restart mode after momentary power failure (Basic operation) The inverter recognizes a momentary power failure upon detecting the condition that DC link bus voltage goes below the undervoltage detection level, while the inverter is running. If the load of the motor is light and the duration of the momentary power failure is extremely short, the voltage drop may not be great enough for a momentary power failure to be recognized, and the motor may continue to run uninterrupted.
Page 111
During a momentary power failure, the motor slows down. After power is restored, the inverter restarts at the frequency just before the momentary power failure. Then, the current limiting function works and the output frequency of the inverter automatically decreases. When the output frequency matches the motor speed, the motor accelerates up to the original output frequency.
Page 112
Restart after momentary power failure (Frequency fall rate) (H14) During restart after a momentary power failure, if the inverter output frequency and the idling motor speed cannot be harmonized with each other, an overcurrent will flow, activating the overcurrent limiter. If it happens, the inverter reduces the output frequency to match the idling motor speed according to the reduction rate (Frequency fall rate: Hz/s) specified by H14.
Page 113
Bias (Frequency command 1) Bias (for Frequency 1) (Bias base point) C32, C34 Analog Input Adjustment for [12] (Gain, Gain base point) C37, C39 Analog Input Adjustment [C1] (Gain, Gain base point) C42, C44 Analog Input Adjustment [V2] (Gain, Gain base point) When any analog input for frequency command 1 (F01) is used, it is possible to define the relationship between the analog input and the reference frequency by multiplying the gain and adding the bias specified by F18.
Page 114
(Point A) To set the reference frequency to 0 Hz for an analog input being at 1 V, set the bias to 0% (F18 = 0). Since 1 V is the bias base point and it is equal to 10% of 10 V (full scale), set the bias base point to 10% (C50 = 10).
Page 115
In general, specify data of function code F20 at a value close to the rated slip frequency of motor. If you set it at an extremely high value, control may become unstable and an overvoltage alarm may result in some cases. The DC brake function of the inverter does not provide any holding mechanism.
Page 116
Specifying a too low carrier frequency will cause the output current waveform to have a large amount of ripples. As a result, the motor loss increases, causing the motor temperature to rise. Furthermore, the large amount of ripples tends to cause a current limiting alarm.

The torque limiter and current limiter are very similar function each other. If both are activated concurrently, they may conflict each other and cause a hunting in the system. Avoid concurrent activation of these limiters. Control Mode Selection 1 Slip Compensation 1 (Operating conditions) F42 specifies the control mode of the inverter to control a motor.
Page 119
In the slip compensation and dynamic torque vector control, the inverter uses the motor parameters to control its speed. Therefore, the following conditions should be satisfied; if not, the inverter may not get the proper performance from the motor. • A single motor should be controlled. (It is difficult to apply this control to a group motor driving system.) •...

Chapter 10 COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS 10.1 Compliance with UL Standards and Canadian Standards (cUL certification) 10.1.1 General Originally, the UL standards were established by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. as private criteria for inspections/investigations pertaining to fire/accident insurance in the USA. Later, these standards were authorized as the official standards to protect operators, service personnel and the general populace from fires and other accidents in the USA.
10.3 Compliance with EMC Standards 10.3.1 General The CE marking on inverters does not ensure that the entire equipment including our CE-marked products is compliant with the EMC Directive. Therefore, CE marking for the equipment shall be the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer. For this reason, IMO’s CE mark is indicated under the condition that the product shall be used within equipment meeting all requirements for the relevant Directives.
