Commissioning
Before start of commissioning please notice the following items:
1. Check the correct connection of mains- and motorlines.
2. Check if the control lines are connected with the correct terminals.
3. Check if the frequency inverter is correctly grounded according to regulations and mounted vertically to a wall.
4. Remove all stray pieces of wire, solderless terminals or other objects left from wiring work.
5. Check if all screws and terminals are fixed.
6. Check if the motor is specified for the defined frequency range in particular for the maximum speed.
7. For optimum adaptation of the frequency to the motor see parameter A97, Auto-Tuning.
Factory default setting (Initialisation)
At delivery all frequency inverters of the series ELVOvert SX are preset to factory default. The devices can be reset to this
basic setting any time.
To do so, proceed the following steps:
1. Switch the power on (display 0 0 0) and press the FUNC-key once (display d 0).
2. Select parameter F14 by repeatedly pressing the arrow keys.
3. Press the FUNC-key once. Parameter A0 is displayed.
4. Select one of the parameters C0 - C7 (corresponding to the terminals 1- 8, e.g. C1 = input 2) via repeatedly pressing
the arrow keys and press key FUNC once.
5. Put in parameter 7 under this parameter by usage of the arrow keys (terminal function STN = factory default setting)
and store the input via pressing the FUNC-key once.
6. The terminal which is selected by this procedure is now used to activate setting to factory default. Connect this terminal
to terminal P24 and switch off power. Wait as long as the LED which monitors the link voltage is switched off.
7. Switch on power again and wait for appr. 6 sec.
8. Disconnect the link between the terminal for factory default setting and terminal P24.
9. Switch off power again and wait until the LED which monitors the link voltage is switched off.
Commissioning via built-in keypad
Remark:Remark:
The inverter needs “Pulse unlocked“ to rotate the motor. Terminal 4 is from manufacturing preset with “Pulse unlocked“
and therefore has to be connected with P24 via a linking wire. Additionally a wire to link PLC with CM1 is required.
1. Switch on the power; the power-LED on the operator panel is then on (display shows value of d 0).
2. Select parameter F4 by repeatedly pressing the arrow keys. Press the FUNC-key. Now you can select the required
direction of rotation by usage of the arrow keys (F = forward, r = reverse). Store the input by pressing the key FUNC.
3. Select parameter F9 via pressing the arrow keys and put in 00 on this parameter position (see parameter F9).
4. Now selecet parameter F2 and adjust the set frequency by usage of the arrow keys.
5. Start the inverter via the RUN key.

F2 Frequency ref. value, 00.0 - A63 Hz FD: 00.0 Hz
Preset speeds
At any time Parameter F2 displays the frequency set value as an actual value which is adjustable, if F9 is
programmed in a suitable way, via the keys of the operator panel.
The inverters of the ELVOvert SX series offer the following choices to define a frequency reference value:
Set value definition via the keys of the built in operator panel.
Adjustment of this set-value by the use of motorpotentiometer up or motorpotentiometer down dig. inputs
Manual set value via the analogue input 0 ...10 V
Automatic set value via analogue input 4 ... 20 m A
3 or 7 preset speeds
(Set value definition via the key of the external control unit BE-4)
(Analogue or digital definition of set-value via one of the option boards)
Frequency reference value via keypad (F9 and F2)
For the definition of the frequency set value via the keys of the built in operator panel under parameter F9 = 00
or 02 has to be set.

A 1 Motor capacity setting 4.00 - 160 kW FD: Nom. „C“
A 2 Pole number 2, 4, 6, 8 pole FD: 4
Put in the nominal power and number of poles of the motor to achieve great motor efficiency. If the data stored
under this parameters do not comply with the actual motor data then especially in the case of the control
method SVC the drive cannot be utilised optimally.
Remarks:Remarks:
About optimum adaptation to the motor see parameter A64 !!
To show the correct speed in d1 it is necessary to set parameter A25 to the correct value !!
A 3 Speed response 0.00 - 100 FD: 2.00
This parameter is only valid for the control method SVC. It caters for the dynamic stabilisation this means that
speed remains constant even during changing of motor load.
An increase of the parameter value causes increased time to react, decreasing reduces the time to react on
changes of the slip or load.
A 4 Starting frequency 0.10 - 9.99 Hz FD: 0.50
The start frequency can be adjusted between 0.12 Hz and 9.99 Hz in Steps of 0.01 Hz.
An increase of the start frequency results in a decrease of the acceleration- or deceleration time.
An increase of the start frequency may be required e.g. to overcome remarkable friction of the drive or of the
attached machine.
Remark:Remark:
Too great setting of start frequency may cause overcurrent trips.

A 5 f-MAX limitation 0.0 - A63 Hz FD: 0.0
A 6 f-MIN limitation 0.0 - A63 Hz FD: 0.0
The frequency range which is defined by the values stored under parameter A4 (start frequency) and A63 (end
frequency) can be reduced via the parameters A5 and A6. The frequency inverter in this case only accepts set
values via the set value inputs or via the built in operator panel or the external control unit BE-4 which are within
this frequency range. As soon as the inverter gets a start command it runs to the frequency which is set via A6.
Remarks:Remarks:
At input of 0 Hz for A5 and A6 or A5 < A6 the relevant parameter is not active.
Frequencies > 120 Hz can only be adjusted if parameter A64 „Maximum frequency“ is set to 400 Hz !!

To avoid resonances eventually occurring in the drive system there is the possibility to program 3 lock out
frequencies.
Remarks:Remarks:
Locked out ranges are not skipped but crossed following the ramps.
Frequencies > 120 Hz can be only adjusted if parameter A64 „Maximum frequency“ is set to 400 Hz !!
The lock out width (+/- 0.5 Hz) can be varied with the external control unit BE-4 within 0.5 Hz to 9.9 Hz.
A10 Carrier frequency 2.0 - 16.0 kHz FD:16(8) *)
Adjusts the switching frequency in steps of 0,1 kHz in the range of 2 kHz up to 16 kHz.
*) 16 kHz at „C“-applications (A0=0, 4 or 5) The parameter is automatically set to the lower value but
8 kHz at „P“-applications (A0=1, 2 or 3) will not be set back to the higher value if A0 is changed.
This must be done manually.
Remarks:Remarks:
With lower switching frequencies in the control method SVC - especially in the case of frequencies <5Hz - a
greater speed accuracy of the motor can be achieved than with great switching frequencies!
Great switching frequencies cause less motor noise and decreased losses in the motor.
To decrease the interferences which are caused by the motor cables, the switching frequency should be kept
as low as possible.
A11 Freq. command sampling 1 - 8 FD: 8
Via the usage of the parameter A11 the sample rate of the set frequency inputs can be adjusted.
(Presentation as voltage input via terminals O-L, presentation by current value via OI-L).
The parameter may be varied between 1 and 8.
1 means a short time constant (great sample rate) which of course is coupled with quick variations of the signal
which may be not acceptable. The maximum value 8 in contrary means slow speed of reaction but on the other
hand a stable output frequency.

Adjustment of up to 7 preset speeds (alternatively to F2).
Each of them can be seperately activated by linking one of the terminals CF1 to CF3 with P24:

A23 Electron. motor protection 20 - 120 % IN FD: 100
The frequency inverters of the ELVOvert SX series can monitor the connected motor thermally via the usage of an
electronic model. The electronic motor protection is adjusted according to the nominal current of the motor.
(See also parameter A 24).
If the parameter A0 is set to 1, 2 or 3 (means higher continuous power „P“),
the maximum adjustable value is 113 % !!
The input value is calculated as follows:
Motor nom. current x 100
Inverter nom. current
For the inverter´s nominal current according to the setting
of A0 the “C“ or the “P“-nominal current has to be used.
Remark:Remark:
The electronic motor protection will be reset in case
of mains switch-off.
A24 Motor protec. charact. 0 - 2 FD: 0
For the improvement of the thermal monitoring of the motor in the lower speed range the electronic motor pro-
tection can be adapted to the reduced cooling of the motor. The external control unit BE-4 offers the possibility
to program the protection characteristic on demand.
0Constant motor protection within the whole frequency range for motors with forced cooling
1 Reduced loading at low speeds for motors with built in fan
2 Protection characteristic free programmable (with optional external control unit BE-4)
A25 Motor pole number for d1 02, 04, 06, 08, 10 ... 48 FD: 04
Adjustment of the number of motor poles for the correct calculation of d1.

A26 Ext. f-ref limit: start value 0.0 - A63 Hz FD: 0.0
A27 Ext. f-ref limit: end value 0.0 - A63 Hz FD: 0.0
By the usage of the parameters A26 and A27 an additional individual adaptation of the external set-value
(0...5V, 0....10 V, 4...20 mA) is possible. Associated with the minimum and maximum set value (e.g. 0 V or
10 V) there is a minimum and maximum frequency value which means that the whole set value range (0...5 V,
0...10 V, 4...20 mA) corresponds with an individually selectable
frequency range.
Example: A26 = 30 Hz, A27 = 50 Hz
0 - (5)10 V corresponds to 30 - 50 Hz,
4 - 20 mA corresponds to 30 - 50 Hz
Remarks:Remarks:
Deactivated via A26 and A27 = 0.
In the case of special applications it might be required at
minimum set value (e.g. 0 V) to drive maximum frequency or
at maximum set value (e.g. 10 V) to drive minimum freq-
uency. To achieve this via A26 maximum frequency and via
A27 minimum frequency has to be put in.
If the V/f-relation (A0) is changed after adjusting A26 and
A27 both parameters A26 and A27 must be
adjusted once more.
A34 Restart selection 0 - 3 FD: 0
Influences the reaction of the frequency inverter in case of a trip occuring:
Trip Reaction
Overcurrent 3 times autoreset in 10 minutes
Overvoltage 3 times autoreset in 10 minutes
Undervoltage 3 times autoreset in 10 minutes
Short mains interruption 16 times autoreset in 10 minutes
0After every trip the inverter stops operation and displays the trip message.
1 Autoreset, at the occurence of one of the mentioned trips, the inverter catches the rotating
motor and stops it in accordance with the defined deceleration time.
2 Autoreset, at the occurence of one of the mentioned trips, the inverter catches the rotating
motor and drives it to the set value using the defined acceleration time.
3 Autoreset, at the occurence of one of the mentioned trips , the inverter restarts after the
defined timeout (factory default setting 1.0 s, adjustable via an external control unit BE-4).
Remark:Remark:
Attention! Synchronisation to the motor speed is only possible if the speed is not less than 40% of the nominal
speed and if the remanent motor voltage has not decreased too much (app. 2-3 sec).

A38Braking unit: Usage ratio0.0 - 100 %FD: 1.5
The mentioned types of the ELVOvertSX series are equipped with a built in braking unit and a
braking resistor (80 Ω; 120 W). The usage ratio should not exceed 1.5% if the internal
braking resistor is used.
At the usage of an external braking resistor (minimum
70 Ω)in connection with the built in braking unit the
usage ratio can be increased according to the power
dissipation of the resistor.
The usage ratio of the built in braking unit with
reference to 100 sec can be adjusted in the range
of 0% to 100%. If this usage ratio is exceeded the braking unit is switched off and the inverter trips.
At the usage of an external braking unit the input value has to be set to 0.0 and the internal and also the
external braking resistors of the built in braking unit have to be disconnected.
Remarks:Remarks:
mThis parameter is only used at the ELVOvert SX 5.5 kW and 7.5 kW. In case of the inverter types
11 kW and 15 kW this parameter is set to 0.0 %.
mThe frequency inverters ELVOvert SX 400/11C15P and 15C22P do not have a built in braking unit.
