Chapter 4 Explanation of Functions
4.2.47 Free-run stop (FRS) function
The free-run stop (FRS) function allows you to shut off the
inverter output to let the motor start free-running.
You can effectively use this function when stopping the
motor with a mechanical brake (e.g., electromagnetic
brake). If an attempt is made to forcibly stop the motor with
a mechanical brake while the inverter keeps its output, the
inverter may trip because of overcurrent.
To use this function, assign function "11" (FRS) to one of the terminal [1] to [8] functions (C001 to C008).
The free-run stop (FRS) function operates as long as the FRS terminal is on. When the FRS terminal is
turned off, the inverter restarts the motor after the retry wait time (b003). However, the inverter does not
restart the motor if the digital operator (02) has been specified for the run command source setting (A002).
To restart the motor in such status, enter a new operation command.
You can select the inverter output mode for restarting with the restart mode after FRS (b088) from starting
the motor with 0 Hz, starting the motor with a matching frequency, and restarting the motor with the input
frequency. (See examples 1, 2, and 3.)
Even when restarting with matching frequency has been selected, the inverter restarts the motor with 0 Hz
if it detects a frequency lower than the restart frequency threshold (b007).
The settings, including that of the FRS terminal, which you make for this function will affect the inverter
operation at recovery of the motor from the free-running status.

The inverter restarts the motor with 0 Hz
regardless of the motor speed. The setting of retry
wait time is ignored for restarting with 0 Hz.
If the inverter restarts the motor with 0 Hz when
the motor speed is high, the inverter may trip
because of overcurrent.

The inverter waits for the retry wait time after the FRS
terminal has been turned off, detects the motor speed
(frequency), and restarts the motor with the matching
frequency without stopping it. If the inverter trips because
of overcurrent when it restarts the motor with matching
frequency, prolongs the retry wait time.
Even when restarting with matching frequency has been
selected, the inverter may start the motor with 0 Hz if:
1) the output frequency is no more than half the base
frequency or
2) the voltage induced on the motor is attenuated quickly.
