Basic Programming

The video below offers a basic summary of how to use the programming interface of a PE^® VFD.

NOTE: Micro-Speed^® drives require a code to be entered in the L0 and U0 parameters before any adjustments are allowed in those parameter groups. (Also C0 and CL0 on MX^™ and MV™ units.) The unlock code is 369. You can enter this code by pressing and holding the increase button until the number displayed scrolls up to 369, if you go past this number you can press the decrease button to adjust. Enter the code when you are at the correct parameter either L0 or U0.

“A” Parameter List

Use this table as quick reference for the basic speed and control settings found in the A parameter group. For a listing of the other parameter groups, consult your drive’s User Manual.
