DIRECT SETPOINT
Use the Direct Setpoint (CP-06) to set the drive output that is used when the MLP–Drive is in the
Direct Mode of operation. Direct mode is an open-loop mode of operation. Scaling,
Acceleration/Deceleration, and closed loop compensation (PID) software are not involved in the
Direct mode. The Direct mode is used in conjunction with the Run and Stop controls.

this RPM level.
CP-09
MAXIMUM LIMIT
This parameter sets the maximum level of operation in the Run state. It is possible to enter a
setpoint above this limit, however, the control will always attempt to maintain a speed at or below
this RPM level.
