Notes:
• No jogging operation is performed when the
set value of jogging frequency is smaller
than the start frequency , or the value is
0 Hz.
• Be sure to stop the motor when switching the
function [JG] ON or OFF.
The inverter generates the motor out-
put according to the V/f algorithm

Review the following description to
help you choose the best torque con-
trol algorithm for your application.
The built-in V/f curves are oriented toward developing constant torque or vari-
able torque characteristics (see graphs below). You can select either constant
torque or reduced torque V/f control.
Constant and Variable (Reduced)
Torque - The graph at right shows
the constant torque characteristic
from 0 Hz to the base frequency
The voltage remains constant for out-
put frequencies higher than the base
frequency.
The graph above (right) shows the
variable
(reduced)
torque
which has a constant torque charac-
teristic from 0 Hz to 10% of the base
frequency. This helps to achieve
higher torque at low speed with
reduced torque curve at higher
speeds.
Sensorless Vector Control - You
can achieve high torque performance
(200% torque at 0.5 Hz of output fre-
quency) without motor speed feedback (encoder feedback), which is so-called
sensorless vector control (SLV control).
Free V/F Control - The free V/F setting function allows you to set an arbitrary
V/F characteristics by specifying the voltages and frequencies (
the seven points on the V/F characteristic curve.
The free V/F frequencies 1 to 7 set by this function must always be in the col-
lating sequence of "1<2<3<4<5<6<7".
Since all the free V/F frequencies are set to 0 Hz as default (factory setting),
specify their arbitrary values (being set with free-setting V/F frequency 7). The
inverter does not operate the free V/F characteristics with the factory setting.
Enabling the free V/F characteristics setting function disables the torque boost
