Can anyone on this forum translate a Chinese instruction manual for me?

[Johnwa]

the first 2 columns are
F0.21 Input terminal X1 function , then the same thing for X2,X3, etc

This is the middle column
1: Wire control stop/run | 2: Key control stop/run 3: Key control 4: Key control 5: Wire control operation 6: Wire control operation 7: Reserved 18: Error signal 9: Wire control forward and reverse switch 10: Forward/reverse switch 11: Run 12: Keyed run | 13: 14: 15: Multi 16: External signal 17 18 | 19 20 21 22 23 24: Select run 25: Run 26: Multi-stage speed stop only for 24 and 25 Function effective)

I tried google translate and it didn't produce anything for me???

Hi Craig sounds like you're joining my league, welcome to the club. LOL

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.

Why is this thing so cheap? I feel like ordering one just to keep as a spare. The last one I ordered on aliexpress was over $170

Probably because the instruction manual is in Chinese LOL.

Oh ya... and no dedicated reverse key.

I've been putzn with this thing for a few days now trying to figure out what the multi-function key (MF-K) is doing and how to change it's behavior. Currently if you depress and hold MF-K down it spins the motor up to the HZ value in location F0.16. When you release the key it stops running the motor. What that is suppose accomplish is beyond me.

So after much head scratching I finally realized I had to run my manual PDF scans through OCR software in order to get PDF files that google translate could deal with.

I found and used this https://convertio.co/ocr/chinese/ which produced the needed files.

Unfortunately none of the parameters in this VFD allow you to change the MF-K key functionality which currently behaves as a jog to frequency X function. Probably explains the amazon price, no reverse run functionality.

I bought one of these for testing purposes. Very nice unit feels well built

 

[YYCHM]

Yup.... that's the same one. Did you get an English users manual with it?

Nah it is Chinese I am hoping the menus are similar to other aisan VFD's

Is this where you got it from https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0..._asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1&tag=chmw-20 ?

And look at that! It's full price again CDN$ 234.69 ??? I paid $75 landed.

 

[Alexander]

Yeah it was as low as $68 on the weekend. Price went up on Monday.

 

[YYCHM]

If you figure out how to make it run in reverse from the key pad let me know please.... Or even how to wire the low voltage options would help.

 

[Alexander]

Will do. I'll play with it and let you know if I find anything interesting

 

[Alexander]

I was playing with all the settings and figured out F0.06 changes the direction 0=forward and 1=reverse

 

[YYCHM]

F0.06 direction 0=forward 1=reverse
F0.07 output frequency default is 50HZ
F0.08 upper frequency tied to F0.07
F0.09 low limit frequency
F0.10 acceleration time in sec
F0.11 deceleration time in sec
F0.15 stop mode 0=decelerate 1= free stop
F0.16 Jog frequency the HZ value key MF-K jogs to

Here is a translation of the manual.

 

[YYCHM]

These are what F0.21 - F0.25 translate to.

FO.21 | input terminal X1 function 1
FO.22 | Input terminal X2 function 2
FO.23 | Input terminal X3 function 7
FO.24 | Input terminal X4 function 0
FO.25 | Input terminal X5 function 0



|0: The console is idle
1: Wire control stop/run
2: keyed stop/run
3: Key operation
4: Keyed stop
5: Wire control forward running
6: Wire control reverse operation
7: reserved
8: error reset signal
9: Wire control forward and reverse switching
10: Keying forward and reverse switching
11: Keyed forward running
12: Keyed reverse operation
13: Multi-speed 1
14: Multi-speed 2
15: Multi-speed 3
16: External error signal
17: Jog forward
18: Jog reversal
19: Emergency stop
20: Relay control
21: Clear terminal frequency
22: Terminal frequency increases
23: Terminal frequency decreasing
24: Select stage speed 1 and run
25: Select stage speed 2 and run
26: Multi-speed shutdown (only for 24 and 25 functions are valid)

@Alexander See my previous post for PDF translations of the manual.

@Alexander here is a copy of the ATLAS VFD-S manual in English that an AliExpress seller sent to me.

Also, a zipped XLSX file.

Hi! The same inverter with other brand... IMHO.
