Analog Input Operation

Input Terminal
The SJ300 inverters provide for an external analog
Signals input to command the inverter frequency output
value. The analog input terminal group includes
the [L], [OI], [O], [O2], and [H] terminals on the
control connector, which provide for Voltage [O]
and [O2] or Current [OI] input. All analog input
signals must use the analog ground [L].
If you use either the voltage or current analog
input, you must select one of them using the logic
input terminal function [AT] analog type. If
terminal [AT] is OFF, the voltage input [O] can
command the inverter output frequency. If terminal
[AT] is ON, the current input [OI] can command
the inverter output frequency. The [AT] terminal function is covered in
Voltage Select" on page
input as the frequency source.

Input Filter

Parameter A016 adjusts an analog input sampling filter that evenly affects all analog inputs
shown above. The parameter range is from 1 to 30. Before increasing the filter setting, we
recommend trying to find the cause of input analog noise. Check for the following:
• Look for nearby high-current wiring—avoid any parallel runs to the analog signal wires
• Check the impedance between the chassis grounds of the inverter and the analog signal
• Check the analog signal ground impedance from the inverter to the analog signal source
• Avoid ground loops... measure the current (or voltage drop) on the chassis ground and signal
After taking steps to minimize the analog signal noise sources, increase the filter time constant
(A016) until the motor output frequency (when commanded by analog inputs) becomes stable.
4–26. Remember that you must also set A001 = 01 to select analog
