Power Input Terminals:
- Connect the main power supply to the designated input terminals (e.g., R, S, T for 3-phase; L, N for 1-phase).
- Ensure the input voltage matches the VFD's rating (e.g., 1-phase 220V, 3-phase 220V, or 3-phase 380V).
Motor Output Terminals:
- Connect the motor leads to the U, V, W output terminals.
- Ensure the motor's rated voltage and current are compatible with the VFD's output.
Control Terminals:
- Logic Input (X1-X4): Used for functions like positive/negative rotation, jog, multi-segment speed, and terminal UP/DOWN frequency.
- Pulse Input (X3): Supports 0-100KHz input range.
- Analog Input (VI): 0-10V or 0-20mA (selectable via DIP switch) for frequency reference.
- Analog Output (AMO): 0-10V for indicating running frequency, output current, etc.
- Relay Output (KA/KB/KC): One normally open, one normally closed contact for status indication or external control.
- RS485: For serial communication with external devices.
Refer to the detailed wiring diagram in the full product manual for specific terminal assignments and connection procedures.
