Using the OIM to Monitor and
Control the Drive
The OIM allows you to monitor the outputs to the motor, such as speed, voltage,
amperage, and power. You can choose one of several viewing options.
The OIM also allows you to control the motor. Motor control options available through
the OIM include starting, stopping, jogging, and setting the manual reference and
control source.
6.1 Using the OIM to Monitor Drive Outputs
You can monitor up to six drive outputs when the OIM is in monitor mode. To enter
monitor mode, press until the key indicator reads MONITOR. A sample of the
six-output monitor mode screen when vector regulation is selected is shown in figure
6.1.
The items that can be monitored depend on the regulation type set for the drive.
6.1.1 Description of the Monitor Mode Outputs
You can monitor:
• Motor speed: The actual speed of the motor as measured by a speed feedback
device or regulator calculation. Displayed as a percentage, RPM (Vector regulation),
hertz (V/Hz regulation), or user-defined speed units.
• Motor voltage: Drive output volts. This value is not DC bus volts.
• Motor amperage: Drive output amps.
• Motor torque: Vector regulation only. Motor output torque in percent.
• Output frequency: V/Hz regulation only. Drive output frequency in hertz.
