I got my Huanyang 110 volt input VFD working with the 800 watt water cooled motor from Automation Tech. The motor is very nice looking and very quiet. I checked all the basic parameters to make sure nothing was dangerously wrong. Set up functions to do basically what the old motor did. Disabled reverse, set to use switch for forward. Changed ramp time to .5 seconds and did a few other things. The manual does have all the necessary information spread throughout in a not very well presented manner. I am used to manuals that have basic setup first and that tell you things like button press sequences to get things working. Also a big fan of reference in a manual matching what is in the device. None of that with this manual. Still I managed to get it working.

If there is interest (unless it was done already) i might write a simple quick start guide for these inverters. An explanation of the basic concepts such as multifunction ins and outs and step by step instructions for programming and also what the parameters really mean in terms of actual use instead of theoretical (especially when terms do not match from one place to another) would also be useful.

It would be good to have others read what i write to make sure i understand it and that it it not as confusing as the original manual.

I have my Huanyang running under Mach3 control thru the RS485 port and a plugin for Mach.

Setting up the VFD may be problematic. It will not hurt the motor for short spins.

i got my motor and had the mill head bored to accept it. all is ready to test. i have the Huanyang 110 volt inverter that came with the instructions for the 220 volt input version. should not be much difference but i am still a little hesitant to hook it up and destroy things. i have an 800 watt motor, water cooled.

any recommendations on setting that might be critical? i did get a manual but it is very difficult to digest. it sort of looks like factory defaults might be OK. the manual has all the details but no quick start guide.

is there any risk in running it for a minute or two without cooling? i would like to bench test it before hooking up the pump and water supply.

and you will then be completely au fait with all aspects of the VFD etc
