7.1.9  V/f control for diagnostics 
Description 
With V/f control, the motor is operated with an open control loop and does require speed 
control or actual current sensing, for example. Operation is possible with a small amount of 
motor data. 
V/f control can be used to check the following: 
●  Power Module 
●  Power cable between Power Module and motor 
●  Motor 
●  DRIVE-CLiQ cable between the Power Module and motor 
●  Encoder and actual encoder value 
The following motors can be operated with V/f control: 
●  Induction motors 
●  Synchronous motors 
Note 
In V/f mode, the calculated actual speed value is always displayed in r0063. The speed of 
the encoder (if installed) is displayed in r0061. If an encoder is not installed, r0061 
displays "0".
