1-3.Precautions
No.
Type
Explanation
1
Motor insulation
inspection
Please perform motor insulation inspection for the first time use, re-
use after leaving unused for a long time as well as regular check, in
order to prevent damage to the inverter because of the motor's
winding insulation failure. Wiring between motor and inverter shall
be disconnected, it is recommended that the 500V voltage type
megger should be adopted and insulation resistance shall be not less
than 5MΩ.
2
Motor thermal
protection
If the rated capacity of the selected motor does not match the
inverter, especially when the inverter rated power is greater than the
motor rated power, be sure to adjust the motor protection parameter
values inside inverter or install thermal relay in the front of motor for
motor protection.
3
Run over power
frequency
The inverter output frequency rang is 0Hz to 500Hz. If the user is
required to run at 50Hz or more, please consider the endurance of
your mechanical devices.
4
Vibrations of
mechanical device
Inverter output frequency may be encountered mechanical resonance
point of the load device, you can set jump frequency parameter inside
inverter to avoid the case.

Chapter 1.Inspection and safety precautions
4
Chapter 1
5
Motor heat and
noise
The inverter output voltage is PWM wave that contains a certain
amount of harmonics, so the temperature rise, noise and vibration of
motor show a slight higher than frequency power frequency
operation.
6
Output side with
piezoresistor or
capacitor for
proving power
factor
The inverter output is PWM wave, if the piezoresistor for lightning
protection or the capacitor for improving power factor is installed in
the output side, which easily cause the inverter instantaneous
overcurrent or even cause damage to the inverter. Please do not use.
7
Contactor or
switch used in the
inverter
input/output
terminals
If contactor is installed between power supply and inverter, the
contactor is not allowed to start/stop the inverter. Necessarily need to
use the contactor to control the inverter start/stop, the interval should
not be less than one hour. Frequent charging and discharging may
reduce the service life of the inverter capacitor. If the contactor or
switch is equipped between output terminals and motor, the inverter
should be turned on/off without output status, otherwise which easily
lead to damage to the inverter module.
8
Use other than the
ratedvoltage
PI series inverter is not suitable for use beyond the allowable
operating voltage described in this manual, which easily cause
damage to the parts inside inverter. If necessary, please use the
corresponding transformer to change voltage.
9
Never change 3-
phase input to 2-
phase input
Never change PI series 3-phase inverter to 2-phase one for
application. Otherwise it will lead to malfunction or damage to the
inverter.
10
Lightning surge
protection
The series inverter is equipped with lightning overcurrent protection
device, so it has the ability of self-protection to lightning induction.
For the area where lightning is frequent, user should also install the
extra protection in the front of the inverter.
11
High altitude and
derating
application
When the inverter is used in areas over 1000m altitude, it is required
to reduce frequency because the thin air will decrease the cooling
effect of inverter. Please consult our technician for details on the
application.
12
Special use
If the user need to use methods other than the suggested wiring
diagram provided in this manual, such as common DC bus, please
consult our technician.
13
Precautions for
scrap disposal of
the inverter
When electrolytic capacitors on the main circuit and printed circuit
board as well as plastic parts are burned, it may produce toxic
gases.Please disposing as industrial waste.
14
Adaptive motor
1) Standard adaptive motor shall be permanent magnet synchronous
motor , please select the inverter according to the motor rated current.
2) The cooling fan and the rotor shaft for non-inverter motor are
coaxially connected, the fan cooling effect is reduced when the
rotational speed is reduced, therefore, when the motor works in
overheating occasions, a strong exhaust fan should be retrofitted or
replace non-inverter motor with the inverter motor.
3) The inverter has built-in the adaptive motor standard parameters,
according to the actual situation, please identify motor parameters or
accordingly modify the default values to try to meet the actual value,
otherwise it will operation affect and protection performance;
4) When short-circuit of cable or motor internal will activate the
inverter alarm, even bombing. Therefore, firstly perform insulation
short-circuit test for the initial installation of the motor and cable,
routine maintenance often also need to perform such test. Note that
the parts to be tested and the inverter shall be disconnected

Chapter 1.Inspection and safety precautions

Chapter 1
completely when testing.
15
Others
1)We need to fix cover and lock before power on, so as to avoid the
harm to personal safety that is caused by internal injuries of bad
capacitors and other components.
2)Do not touch internal circuit board and any parts after powering off
and within five minutes after keyboard indicator lamp goes out, you
must use the instrument to confirm that internal capacitor has been
discharged fully, otherwise there is a danger of electric shock.
3)Body static electricity will seriously damage the internal MOS field-
effect transistors, etc., if there are not anti-static measures, do not
touch the printed circuit board and IGBT internal device with hand,
otherwise it may cause a malfunction.
4)The ground terminal of the inverter(E or ) shall be earthed firmly
according to the provisions of the National Electrical Safety and other
relevant standards. Do not shut down(power off) by pulling switch,
and only cut off the power until the motor stopping operation.
5)It is required to add the optional input filter attachment so as to meet
CE standards.

Without twinkling parameter position, the function code can not be modified in the level 3
menu. The reason maybe as following:
1) The function code can not be modified itself, eg: actual detecting parameters, running
record parameters.

Chapter 3 Keyboard

Chapter 3
2) The function code can not be modified in the running status. It must be modified in the stop
status.
3-5-2.The way to read parameters in various status
In stop or run status, operate shift key
SHIFT
to display a variety of status parameters
respectively. Parameter display selection depends on function code F6.01 (run parameter 1), F6.02
(run parameter 2) and F6.03 (stop parameter 3).
In stop status, there are total 16 stop status parameters that can be set to display/not display:
set frequency, bus voltage, DI input status, DO output status, analog input AI1 voltage, analog
input AI2 voltage, panel potentiometer input voltage, Actual count value, Actual length value, PLC
running step number, Actual speed display, PID settings, high-speed pulse input frequency and
reserve, switch and display the selected parameter by pressing key orderly.
In running status, there are 5 running-status parameters:running frequency,setting
frequency,bus voltage,output voltage, output current default display, and other display parameters:
output power, output torque, DI input status, DO output status, analog inputAI1 voltage, analog
input AI2 voltage, panel potentiometer input voltage, Actual count value, Actual length value,
linear speed, PID settings and PID feedback, etc, their display depends on function code F6.01 and
F6.02 switch and display the selected parameter by pressing key orderly.
Inverter powers off and then powers on again, the displayed parameters are the selected
parameters before power-off.
3-5-3.Password settings
The inverter has password protection. When y0.01 become not zero, it is the password and
will be work after exit from function code modified status. Press PRG key again, will display”----”.
One must input the correct password to go to regular menu, otherwise, inaccessible.
To cancel the password protection function, firstly enter correct password to access and then
set y0.01 to 0.
3-5-4.Motor parameter auto tuning
Choose vector control, one must input the motor‟s parameters in the nameplate accurately
before running the inverter. PI500-Eseries frequency inverter will match the motor‟s standard
parameters according to its nameplate. The vector control is highly depend on motor‟s parameters.
The parameters of the controlled motor must be inputted accurately for the good control
performance.
Motor parameter auto tuning steps are as follows:
Firstly select command source (F0.11=0) as the comment channel for operation panel, then
input the following parameters according to the actual motor parameters (selection is based on the
current motor):
Motor
Selection
Parameters
Motor
b0.00:motor type selection
b0.03:motor rated current
b0.01:motor rated power
b0.04:motor rated frequency
b0.02:motor rated voltage
b0.05: motor rated speed
If the motor can NOT completely disengage its load, please select 11 (synchronous motor
parameter static auto tuning) for b0.27, and then press the RUN key on the keyboard panel.
If the motor can completely disengage its load, please select 12 (synchronous motor parameter
comprehensive auto turning) for b0.27, and then press the RUN key on the keyboard panel, the
inverter will automatically calculate the motor‟s following parameters:
Motor
Selection
Parameters
