Free-run Stop
When the terminal [FRS] is turned ON, the inverter stops the output and the motor
enters the free-run state (coasting). If terminal [FRS] is turned OFF, the output
resumes sending power to the motor if the Run command is still active. The free-run
stop feature works with other parameters to provide flexibility in stopping and starting
motor rotation.
In the figure below, parameter B088 selects whether the inverter resumes operation
from 0 Hz (left graph) or the current motor rotation speed (right graph) when the [FRS]
terminal turns OFF. The application determines the best setting.
Parameter B003 specifies a delay time before resuming operation from a free-run stop.
To disable this feature, use a zero delay time.

Code
Terminal
Symbol
Function Name State Description
ON Causes output to turn OFF, allowing motor to free
run (coast) to stop
11 FRS Free-run Stop
OFF Output operates normally, so controlled
deceleration and stops motor
Valid for inputs: C001~C005
Required settings B003, B088, C011 to C015
Notes:
• When you want the [FRS] terminal to be active
low (normally closed logic), change the setting
(C011 to C015) that corresponds to the input
(C001 to C005) that is assigned the [FRS]
function.
