4.9 Auto-Tuning
Auto-Tuning uses motor characteristics to automatically set drive parameters for vector control. Think about the
type of motor, drive control method, and the motor installation environment and select the best Auto-Tuning
method.
WARNING! Injury to Personnel. Rotational Auto-Tuning rotates the motor at 50% or more of the motor rated frequency. Make
sure that there are no issues related to safety in the area around the drive and motor. Increased motor frequency can cause
serious injury or death.
◆ Auto-Tuning for Induction Motors
This section gives information about Auto-Tuning for induction motors. Set motor parameters E1-xx and E2-xx
(or, for motor 2, E3-xx and E4-xx) for Auto-Tuning.
Note:
Do Stationary Auto-Tuning if you cannot do Rotational Auto-Tuning. There can be large differences between the measured results and
the motor characteristics when Auto-Tuning is complete. Examine the parameters for the measured motor characteristics after you do
Stationary Auto-Tuning.

• When you can decouple the motor and load the motor can rotate
freely while Auto-Tuning.
• When operating motors that have fixed output characteristics.
• When it is necessary to use motors that have high-precision
control.
• When you cannot decouple the motor and load, but the motor load
is less than 30%.

Stationary Auto-Tuning 1 T1-01 = 1
• When you cannot decouple the motor and load.
• When the motor load is more than 30%.
• When the information from the motor test report or motor
nameplate is not available.
With Stationary Auto-Tuning, the energized drive stays stopped
for approximately 1 minute. During this time, the drive
automatically measures the necessary motor parameters.
• When you operate the motor with less than 30% load after Auto-
Tuning.
Set T1-12 = 1 [Test Mode Selection = Yes] to do a test run after
Auto-Tuning.

Stationary Line-Line Resistance T1-01 = 2
• After Auto-Tuning, the wiring distance between the drive and
motor changed by 50 m or more.
• When the wiring distance is 50 m or more in the V/f Control
mode.
• When the motor output and drive capacity are different.

■ Input Data for Induction Motor Auto-Tuning
To do Auto-Tuning, input data for the items in Table 4.9 that have an "x". Before you start Auto-Tuning, prepare
the motor test report or record the information from the motor nameplate as a reference.
