Possible Solutions

Default

Recommended Setting

Hunting or oscillation in the middle speed range (10 Hz to 40 Hz)

n1-02 [Hunting Prevention Gain Setting]

  • If torque is not sufficient with heavy loads, decrease the setting value.

  • If hunting or oscillation occur with light loads, increase the setting value.

  • If hunting occurs with a low-inductance motor, for example a motor with a larger frame size or a high-frequency motor, lower the setting value.

1.00

0.10 - 2.00

Hunting or oscillation in the high speed range (120 Hz or more)

C4-25 [High-Speed Voltage Compensation]

Adjust the setting value.

1 [Enabled]

0 [Disabled]

  • The volume of the motor excitation sound is too high.

  • Hunting or oscillation in the low speed range (10 Hz or lower), or in the middle speed range (10 Hz to 40 Hz)

C6-02 [Carrier Frequency Selection]

  • If the volume of the motor excitation sound is too high, increase the carrier frequency.

  • If hunting or oscillation occur in the low or middle speed range, decrease the carrier frequency.

1 (2 kHz) 1

1 to upper limit value

  • Unsatisfactory motor torque and speed response

  • Hunting or oscillation

C4-02 [Torque Compensation Delay Time]

  • If torque or speed response are slow, decrease the setting value.

  • If hunting or oscillation occur, increase the setting value.

200 ms 2

100 ms to 1000 ms

  • Torque in the low speed range (10 Hz or slower) is not sufficient.

  • Hunting or oscillation

C4-01 [Torque Compensation Gain]

  • If torque is not sufficient in the low speed range (10 Hz or slower), increase the setting value.

  • If hunting or oscillation occur with light loads, decrease the setting value.

1.00

0.50 - 1.50

  • Torque in the low speed range (10 Hz or slower) is not sufficient.

  • Large initial vibration at start up.

  • E1-08 [Mid Point A Voltage]

  • E1-10 [Minimum Output Voltage]

  • If torque is not sufficient in the low speed range (10 Hz or slower), increase the setting value.

  • If there is large initial vibration at start up, decrease the setting value

  • E1-08: 15.0 V 3

  • E1-10: 9.0 V 3

Default setting +/- 5 V 4

In V/f control method, speed precision is unsatisfactory.

C3-01 [Slip Compensation Gain]

Set E2-01 [Motor Rated Current], E2-02 [Motor Rated Slip], and E2-03 [Motor No-Load Current], then adjust C3-01.

0.0 (no slip compensation)

0.5 - 1.5

In Closed Loop V/f control method, speed precision is unsatisfactory.

  • C5-01 [ASR Proportional Gain 1]

  • C5-02 [ASR Integral Time 1] 5

Adjust C5-01, C5-02.

  • C5-01: 0.20

  • C5-02: 0.200 s

  • Proportional gain = 0.10 to 1.00

  • Integral time = 0.100 to 2.000 s

 
1

The default setting changes when the settings for C6-01 [Normal / Heavy Duty Selection] and o2-04 [Drive Model (KVA) Selection] change.

2

The default setting changes when the settings for A1-02 [Control Method Selection] and o2-04 [Drive Model (KVA) Selection] change.

3

The default setting changes when the settings for A1-02 [Control Method Selection] and E1-03 [V/f Pattern Selection] change.

4

Recommended settings are for 200 V class drives. Multiply the voltage by 2 for 400 V class drives.

5

In Closed Loop V/f Control, ASR only controls the output frequency. You cannot make a high-gain as in Closed Loop Vector control.
