2. Wiring
WARNING
Be sure to ground the inverter. Otherwise, you run the risk of electric shock or fire.
- Commit wiring work to a qualified electrician. Otherwise, you run the risk of electric shock or fire.
- Before wiring, make sure that the power supply is off. Otherwise, you run the risk of electric shock
or fire.
- Perform wiring only after installing the inverter. Otherwise, you run the risk of electric shock or
injury.
- The inverter must be powered OFF before you change any of the slide switch settings. Otherwise,
you run the risk of electric shock or injury.
CAUTION
Make sure that the voltage of AC power supply matches the rated voltage of your inverter.
Otherwise, you run the risk of injury or fire.
- Do not input single-phase power into the 3-phase inverter. Otherwise, you run the risk of fire.
- Do not connect AC power supply to any of the output terminals (U, V, and W). Otherwise, you run
the risk of injury or fire.
- Connect an earth-leakage breaker to the power input circuit. Otherwise, you run the risk of fire.
- Use only the power cables, earth-leakage breaker, and magnetic contactors that have the specified
capacity (ratings). Otherwise, you run the risk of fire.
- Do not use the magnetic contactor installed on the primary and secondary sides of the inverter to
stop its operation.
- Tighten each screw to the specified torque. No screws must be left loose. Otherwise, you run the
risk of fire
- Before operating slide switch in the inverter, be sure to turn off the power supply. Otherwise, you
run the risk of electric shock and injury.
- Please make sure that earth or ground screw is tightened properly and completely.
- First, check the screws of output terminal (U, V and W) are properly tightened, and then tighten the
screws of input terminal (R,S and T)
3. Operation
WARNING
- While power is supplied to the inverter, even if the inverter has stopped, do not touch any terminal
or internal part of the inverter, insert a bar in it, check signals, or connect or disconnect any wire or
connector. Otherwise, you run the risk of electric shock, injury or fire.
- Be sure to close the terminal block cover before turning on the inverter power. Do not open the
terminal block cover while power is being supplied to the inverter or voltage remains inside.
Otherwise, you run the risk of electric shock.
- Do not operate switches with wet hands. Otherwise, you run the risk of electric shock.
- If the retry mode has been selected, the inverter will restart suddenly after a break in the tripping
status. Stay away from the machine controlled by the inverter when the inverter is under such
circumstances. (Design the machine so that human safety can be ensured, even when the inverter
restarts suddenly.) Otherwise, you run the risk of injury.
- Do not select the retry mode for controlling an elevating or traveling device because output
free-running status occurs in retry mode. Otherwise, you run the risk of injury or damage to the
machine controlled by the inverter.
- If an operation command has been input to the inverter before a short-term power failure, the
inverter may restart operation after the power recovery. If such a restart may put persons in danger,
design a control circuit that disables the inverter from restarting after power recovery. Otherwise,
you run the risk of injury.
- Prepare the additional emergency stop switch in addition to the stop key of the integrated operator
and/or the optional operator. Otherwise, there is a danger of injury.
- If an operation command has been input to the inverter before the inverter enters alarm status, the
inverter will restart suddenly when the alarm status is reset. Before resetting the alarm status, make
sure that no operation command has been input.

CAUTION
- Do not touch the heat sink, which heats up during the inverter operation. Otherwise, you run the risk
of burn injury.
- The inverter allows you to easily control the speed of motor or machine operations. Before
operating the inverter, confirm the capacity and ratings of the motor or machine controlled by the
inverter. Otherwise, you run the risk of injury.
- Install an external brake system if needed. Otherwise, you run the risk of injury.
- When using the inverter to operate a standard motor at a frequency of over 60 Hz, check the
allowable motor speeds with the manufacturers of the motor and the machine to be driven and
obtain their consent before starting inverter operation. Otherwise, you run the risk of damage to the
motor and machine.
- During inverter operation, check the motor for the direction of rotation, abnormal sound, and
vibrations. Otherwise, you run the risk of damage to the machine driven by the motor.
- HIGH VOLTAGE: Dangerous voltage exists even after the Safe Stop is activated. It does NOT mean
that the main power has been removed.
4. Maintenance, inspection, and parts replacement

Basic System Description
A motor control system will obviously include a motor and inverter, as well as a circuit
breaker or fuses for safety. If you are connecting a motor to the inverter on a test bench
just to get started, that’s all you may need for now. But a system can also have a variety of
additional components. Some can be for noise suppression, while others may enhance the
inverter’s braking performance. The figure and table below show a system with all the
optional components you might need in your final application.
Name
Function
Breaker /
disconnect
A molded-case circuit breaker (MCCB), ground fault
interrupter (GFI), or a fused disconnect device. NOTE: The
installer must refer to the NEC and local codes to ensure
safety and compliance.
Input-side
AC Reactor
This is useful in suppressing harmonics induced on the
power supply lines and for improving the power factor.
WARNING: Some applications must use an input-side AC
Reactor to prevent inverter damage.
Radio noise filter
Electrical noise interference may occur on nearby
equipment such as a radio receiver. This magnetic choke
filter helps reduce radiated noise (can also be used on
output).
EMC filter *1
Reduces the conducted noise on the power supply wiring
between the inverter and the power distribution system.
Connect to the inverter primary (input) side.
Radio noise filter
(use in non-CE
applications)
This capacitive filter reduces radiated noise from the main
power wires in the inverter input side.
DC link choke
Suppress harmonics generated by the inverter. However, it
will not protect the input diode bridge rectifier.
Radio noise filter
Electrical noise interference may occur on nearby
equipment such as a radio receiver. This magnetic choke
filter helps reduce radiated noise (can also be used on
input).
Output-side
AC Reactor
This reactor reduces the vibration in the motor caused by
the inverter’s switching waveforms, by smoothing the
waveform to approximate commercial power quality. It is
also useful to reduce harmonics when wiring from the
inverter to the motor is more than 10m in length.
LCR filter
Sine wave shaping filter for output side.
Note 1) For CE application, please refer to page 84, “CE-EMC Installation Guidelines”.

Determining Wire and Fuse Sizes
The maximum motor current in your application determines the recommended wire size.
The following table gives the wire size in AWG. The “Power Lines”column applies to the
inverter input power, output wires to the motor, the earth ground connection, and any other
components shown in the “Basic System Description”on page 11. The “Signal Lines”
column applies to any wire connecting to the two green connectors just inside the front
cover panel.

Note 1: Field wiring must be made by a UL-Listed and CSA-certified closed-loop terminal
connector sized for the wire gauge involved. Connector must be fixed by using
the crimping tool specified by the connector manufacturer.
Note 2: Be sure to consider the capacity of the circuit breaker to be used.
Note 3: Be sure to use a larger wire gauge if power line length exceeds 66ft. (20m).
Note 4: Use 18 AWG / 0.75mm2wire for the alarm signal wire ([AL0], [AL1], [AL2]
terminals).

Wire the Inverter Input to a Supply
In this step, you will connect wiring to the input of the inverter. First, you must determine
whether the inverter model you have required three-phase power only, or single-phase
power only. All models have the same power connection terminals [R/L1], [S/L2], and
[T/L3]. So you must refer to the specifications label (on the side of the inverter) for
the acceptable power source types! For inverters that can accept single-phase
power and are connected that way, terminal [S/L2] will remain unconnected.
Note the use of ring lug connectors for a secure connection.

Keys, Modes, and Parameters
The purpose of the keypad is to provide a way to
change modes and parameters. The term function
applies to both monitoring modes and parameters.
These are all accessible through function codes that are
primary 4-character codes. The various functions are
separated into related groups identifiable by the
left-most character, as the table shows.

You can see from the following page how to monitor and/or program the parameters.
Keypad Navigation Map
The WL200 Series inverter drives have many programmable functions and parameters.
The following pages will cover these in detail, but you need to access just a few items to
perform the powerup test. The menu structure makes use of function codes and parameter
codes to allow programming and monitoring with only a 4-digit display and keys and LEDs.
So, it is important to become familiar with the basic navigation map of parameters and
functions in the diagram below. You may later use this map as a reference.
