 Acceleration and Deceleration time

Accel/Decel time is set based on F21 – [Max frequency]. For instance, if F21 is set to 60Hz,
Accel/Decel time 5sec, and run frequency 30Hz, time to reach 30Hz would be 2.5 sec.

H74 parameter can be used to model a gear ratio for example

Monitoring the I/O terminal
Controlling Motor using the inverter keypad and Pot.
Controlling Motor using external hardware Switches / Pot.s
Controlling Motor with fixed acceleration or deceleration
Controlling Motor with fixed acceleration/deceleration time
By now
you should be able to control the motor using the LS iC5 inverter to
provide deferent drive scenarios using either the inverter unit or external
unit to control direction, speed and acceleration or deceleration of the
motor.
