1.1.1 How to Read this Instruction Manual
VLT AutomationDrive is designed to provide high shaft performance on electrical motors. Please read this manual carefully for proper use. Incorrect
handling of the adjustable frequency drive may cause improper operation of the adjustable frequency drive or related equipment, shorten lifetime or
cause other problems.
This Instruction Manual will help you get started, install, program, and troubleshoot your VLT AutomationDrive.
The VLT AutomationDrive comes in twoshaft performance levels. FC 301 ranges from scalar (U/f) to VVC+ and handles asynchronous motors only. FC
302 is a high performance adjustable frequency drive for asynchronous as well as permanent motors and handles various kinds of motor control principles
such as scalar (U/f), VVC+ and flux vector motor control.
This Instruction Manual covers both the FC 301 and the FC 302. Where information covers both series, we refer to the FC 300. Otherwise, we refer
specifically to either the FC 301 or the FC 302.
