i think thats what i have not sure as the unit was pre made by rotor motor but i assume you mean the dial that adjusts the freq and is displayed in the screen is there any way i can just set the inverter to just give me 3 phas at 50hz thanks
 
yeah youre right, most inverters can be wired for a remote pot though which was what i was thinking of, set your minimum speed to 50hz and your maximum to 51hz and increase your ramp up time to maybe 2 sec, sorry if im repeating but what make is your inverter?
 
just reread your parameters, you say youve set the pot to 50hz, what does that mean? is it possible youve set the speed source 0-10Vdc and the pot 4-20mA at 50hz??
 
thanks god its working that done the job all il have to do is pull in a 230 supply to the control circuit on the ramp it dont like running off one of the inverter phases
 
glad its working, as mentioned earlier, your inverter output is not true ac so never try to tap off it, its like a stepped square sine wave, but also you would create an imbalanced load on the output and most likely cause your inverter to trip out.
good luck.
 
Glad to see its working,should be a parameter which shows the current the motor is pulling, it would be worth while to check the current.
a clamp meter will not give an accurate reading!
