Analog Input Operation
The WJ200 inverters provide for analog input to
command the inverter frequency output value.
The analog input terminal group includes the [L],
[OI], [O], and [H] terminals on the control logic
terminal, which provide for Voltage [O] or Current
[OI] input. All analog input signals must use the
analog ground [L].
If you use either the voltage or current analog
input, you must select one of them using the logic
input terminal function [AT] analog type. Refer to
the table on next page showing the activation of
each analog input by combination of
parameter and [AT] terminal condition. The [AT]
terminal function is covered in "Analog Input
Current/Voltage Select" in page3-16 of Instruction
Manual. Remember that you must also set

to select analog input as the frequency source.
NOTE: If no logic input terminal is configured for the [AT] function, then inverter recognizes
that [AT]=OFF and MCU recognizes [O]+[OI] as analog input.
Using an external potentiometer is a common way to
control the inverter output frequency (and a good way
to learn how to use the analog inputs). The
potentiometer uses the built-in 10V reference [H] and
the analog ground [L] for excitation, and the voltage
input [O] for the signal. By default, the [AT] terminal
selects the voltage input when it is OFF.
Take care to use the proper resistance for the
potentiometer, which is 1 to 2 k
Voltage Input – The voltage input circuit uses
terminals [L] and [O]. Attach the signal cable's
shield wire only to terminal [L] on the inverter.
Maintain the voltage within specifications (do not
apply negative voltage).
Current Input – The current input circuit uses
terminals [OI] and [L]. The current comes from a
sourcing type transmitter; a sinking type will not
work! This means the current must flow into
terminal [OI], and terminal [L] is the return back to
the transmitter. The input impedance from [OI] to
[L] is 100 Ohms. Attach the cable shield wire only
to terminal [L] on the inverter.
