Bought a VFD on Amazon and the programing manual is in Chinese. No English manual supplied.

Can anyone here help me?

Thanks,

Craig

Maybe use instructions from some other unit? This should not be such a mystery, you connect 240V on one side 1ph and get 3ph on the other. The trick is mainly in... how do you change speeds, wire extra on off switch etc.

On the plus side it is only 68 CAD now.

I wired it up and it ran fine right out of the box. Max freq was 50HZ and I wanted to up that a bit. I figured out how to do that by looking at the defaults listed. It now cycles 0-80HZ and the setting is being saved when powered down. Now I want to figure out how to get it to run in reverse, and I'm only assuming it can be done. It has a DIR led?
What do you think the MF-K button means and is for? These instructions are really bad, I don't see any dissertation explaining the button functions.

I have used mine like 5 year ago. Got two of them, one died. "customer service" did reply and simply blamed me for broken unit.

Apparently MF-K stands for multi function key and according to some of the manuals I have been looking at I should be able to program it to behave as a reverse run key.

With the google app you can pick out specific sections to translate. That might give better results.
