How can I monitor the Reference and Output Frequency on the ATV312 drive?

Search FAQs

Issue:
Customer is using the dial for speed control and not sure what speed the drive is running at. He needs to check the output speed and reference speeds.

Product line:
Altivar Machines, Altivar 312

Resolution:
While running the drive in Remote mode (no LED's flashing), push the enter button (the dial), and turn to the SUP- menu. Push Enter and dial to FrH. FrH is the Reference Frequency (how fast the drive is being told to run.)

Next, scroll down under the SUP- menu to rFr. rFr is the output frequency (the speed at which the motor should be running.) To set this as your default display, press and hold the dial on rFr for 2 to 3 sec., until it flashes.

Note: Depending on the ACC and DEC times, the drive may take some time to change the speed value.
