Product Usage Instructions:

1. Configurations Set Common Parameter List:

For all configurations, set the common parameter list as
follows:

Parameter Code Value Comments

2. Configurations Without VTS Controls:

2.1 Local Control Using Integrated Control Panel:

To set up local control using the integrated control panel,
follow these steps:

  1. Set Start/Stop Source to 0.
  2. Set Frequency Source to 0.
  3. Utilize the RUN and STOP/RST buttons on the control panel for
    drive control.

2.2 Remote Control with Three Speeds:

To enable remote control with three speeds, follow these
steps:

  1. Set Start/Stop Source to desired value.
  2. Set Frequency Source to desired value.
  3. Assign Constant Speeds 1, 2, and 3 accordingly.

3. Exhaust Unit with VTS Control System:

If using an exhaust unit with a VTS control system, set the
parameters as per user preferences.

4. AHU with VTS Controls Type uPC3:

To control the G100 frequency drivers in AHU with VTS controls
type uPC3, follow these steps:

  • Set VFD type to G100 in uPC3 settings (HMI Advanced mask
    I03).
  • Set additional parameters for communication.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: How do I restore G100 to default settings?

To restore G100 to default settings, set dr-93 = 1 and switch
off the power supply.
