Can someone point me to a write up of the very basic basics of hooking up a VFD? This thread, and most others that I read, seems to start at a level far beyond my current understanding. A couple of searches for the basic info have led to similar writeups, beyond my current level...
Thanks, and sorry for the thread hijack.
The manual they come with should have that. The short version is pretty simple, power in to a few screws, power out to the motor on 3 more. Everything else is generally optional. The main terminals are generally pretty well labeled. If you have a particular VFD in mind, we can probably find an online manual to help sort it out. Here's a random one. You care about the top left and right, input on the left, output on the right. There are generally controls on the unit to control it, the other terminals are mostly to make it possible to put controls somewhere else.
