Encoder Installation and Signal
The encoder shall rotate in the direction shown in Figure 3.1 when terminal FWD is ON. Encoder output pulse is shown in Figure 3.2. Connect the encoder directly to the motor using a coupling.
If the encoder is installed to the motor in opposite side of load and the inverter and the motor are wired with UVW order, in the case of JEC standard motor, the rotation is same as shown in Figure 3.1. However in the case of IEC standard motor, the rotation direction becomes opposite. In the case of IEC standard motor, interchange V with W of inverter output and make the motor and encoder rotation direction as shown in Figure 3.1.

Procedure of Magnetic Pole Position Offset Tuning
You have to execute the tuning as follows before driving motor.
Please inquire of the maker if tuning is impossible normally.
Tuning Mode (Function code L03)
Tuning mode is selected by function code L03 as follows. Usually, it is selected according to the tuning procedure.
1 : Tuning operation
2 : do not use this.
3 : Tuning operation with checking accuracy (Er7 occurs if tuning accuracy is not good.)
4 : Reserved for particular manufactures (Do not access this function code.)
5 : Tuning operation with motor rotation.
Tuning Condition
The recommended condition is following.
- The rotor is fixed by engaging the mechanical brake. (In the case of L03=1 or L03=3.)
If it is impossible to fix the rotor, it is acceptable even if the rotor is free. (In this case, if the torque bias has been set, cancel it.) - Encoder abnormality detection is effective. (It is effective in the initial condition as follows. L90=1, L91=10%, L92=0.5)
- Only in case that the brake can be released, the motor is fixed and the load is removed from the motor, L03=5 is allowed to execute.
Tuning procedure
L03=3 is recommended. The tuning procedure is as follows.
- Apply the brakes, and fix the rotor. It is acceptable without the brake in the case of the tuning at the motor unit.
- Confirm the motor is connected with the inverter. Turn on MC during the tuning if there is MC between the inverter
and the motor. Turn on EN terminal. - If you use Multi Function Key Pad (MFKP), we recommend local mode. Keep pushing the “REM/LOC” key of
MFKP until the indicator “REM” change into “LOC”. - Execute the tuning with the function code L03=3. Select “1 DATA SET” in the program mode of MFKP, and change the function code L03 to “3” and set with the
“FUNC/DATA” key. When the “FWD” key is pushed, the tuning is begun. “EXECUTING” is displayed in the monitor of MFKP during the tuning.
When “EXECUTING” disappeared, it is the end of tuning. L03 automatically returns to “0”. The tuning result is stored in function code L04. Please confirm it and write down the value. Rarely there is a motor that cannot use the tuning of L03=3. Execute the tuning of L03=1 or L03=5 if the tuning error occurs during the tuning of L03=3. - Drive in the normal mode. The recommended procedure is as follows.
1) Set the reference speed to around 10% of motor rated speed, and push the “FWD” key.
2) Make the motor rotate more than one rotation, and push the “STOP” key.
3) After the motor stops, push the “REV” key.
4) Make the motor rotate more than one rotation.
5) Push the “STOP” key. After the motor stopped, the reference speed returns to 0.
If the motor has not been rotated, execute the following contents.
1) Confirm whether the function code is correctly set.
2) Confirm the wiring between an encoder and option card.
3) Match the instructed rotation of the motor and the encoder.(Confirm whether the encoder and the motor are in
the state of “3.2 Encoder Installation and Signal”.)
If there is a cause in 1) to 3), after correcting them, execute the tuning again from the start of the procedure.
If you cannot find the cause, replace the wiring “V” and “W” of the inverter output. After that execute the tuning from the start of the procedure. - Turn off the power supply and turn on again. Confirm it is possible to drive normally.
If it is possible to drive, the tuning is completed.
If the motor has not rotated normally, it has miss wiring in the wiring for the magnetic pole position detection signal of encoder(C and D).
Try to wire correctly, and execute the tuning again from the beginning.
In the case of L03=5
- Make the motor a stand alone and release the mechanical brake. (Refer to (3) of 2.tuning condition.)
- Confirm the motor is connected with the inverter. Turn on MC during the tuning if there is MC between the inverter and the motor. Turn on EN terminal.
- If you use Multi Function Key Pad (MFKP), we recommend local mode. Keep pushing the “REM/LOC” key of
MFKP until the indicator “REM” change into “LOC”. - Execute the tuning with the function code L03=5
Select “1 DATA SET” in the program mode of MFKP, and change the function code L03 to “5” and set with the
“FUNC/DATA” key. When the “FWD” key is pushed, the tuning is begun. “EXECUTING” is displayed in the monitor of MFKP during the tuning.
At first the motor drives for about 30 seconds in a positive direction, after that it drives for about 30 seconds in the opposite direction.
When “EXECUTING” disappeared, it is the end of tuning. L03 automatically returns to “0”. The tuning result is stored in function code L04. Please confirm it and write down the value.
The procedure of (5) and (6) is the same as L03=3.
