1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose of this Application Guide
This Application Guide provides information for configuring the system, controlling the AC drive, accessing parameters, programming,

follow the instructions. Pay particular attention to the safety instructions and general warnings that are provided in this manual and
other documentation delivered with the drive.

different from motor control, although the hardware and system software is the same.
