Abstract
An operation command process for selecting and setting operation commands, such as frequency and voltage, for operating an inverter to control an induction motor. Multiple operation commands are individually defined. Then, the multiple operation commands are stored as a group in memory. The defining of the operation commands and storing them as an operation command group is repeated, each group corresponding to different application and load conditions of the induction motor, so that a plurality of operation command groups are stored in memory. One of the groups is selected and read from memory, and then used to operate the inverter to control the induction motor.
Claims1
A process for controlling the operation of an inverter and an associated motor, comprising the steps of:
- setting, by a user controlling an operation command input means, one or more of a plurality of individual operation commands to a user-defined value required for operation of the motor controlled by said inverter;
- storing said one or more of the plurality of the individual operation commands in a storage means as an operation command group, at selected addresses in said storage means;
- repeating said setting and storing steps to store a plurality of operation command groups;
- selecting an operation command group from among said plurality of operation command groups stored in said storage means;
- reading said selected operation command group from said storage means;
- and
- operating said inverter to control said motor in accordance with said selected operation command group;
- said process further comprising the steps of:
- modifying, in whole or in part, one or more of the individual operation commands in said selected operation command group;
- and
- storing said modified operation command group in said storage means as a new operation command group at one of the same addresses as those of the individual operation commands prior to being modified and different addresses from those of said selected operation command group;
- wherein said plurality of operation command groups stored in the different addresses are selected in correspondence to different application purposes and load conditions of said motor.
