5.3 External potentiometer operation
5.3.1
Analog conguration of frequency (voltage and current input)
Inverters require frequency and start commands. Frequency commands (set frequency) determine the rotation
speed of the motor. Turning on the start command starts rotating the motor.

● The operation panel (
) is used to issue start commands.
● Frequency commands are issued using the potentiometer (frequency setting potentiometer, voltage input)
or current inputs of 4-20mA.
● Set Pr. 79 Operation mode selection to "4" (External/PU operation mode 2).
