AC BOOST is similar to FX BOOST, but is only active when the drive is accelerating. During acceleration,
theoutputvoltageisincreasedaccordingtothesettingofACBOOST,whichincreasesmotortorque.Refer

ThediagrambelowillustrateshowFXBOOSTandACBOOSTaltertheV/Hzratiotoincreasemotor
torque.
FX BOOST sets the boost at 0 Hz (approximately 15% in the example above), and as the output
frequencyapproaches30Hz,theboostdecreasestozero.

21 SLIP CMP (SLIPCOMPENSATION)
SLIPCOMPENSATIONisusedtocompensateforchangesinmotorspeed(“slip”)whichoccurdueto
changes in load. In a standard AC induction motor, as the load on the motor increases, the motor cur-
rentincreasesandthemotorshaftspeeddecreases.Byincreasingtheoutputfrequencyinresponsetothe
increased motor current, SLIP COMPENSATION is able to counteract the reduction in motor speed due
to increased load. This parameter is useful in applications where precise speed regulation is needed, even
under changing load conditions. The use of SLIP COMPENSATION can result in speed regulation of
less than 1% of base speed in most applications. SLIP COMPENSATION is often set to 3%, which is the
standard slip rating of most AC induction motors.
