Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
109 words
A process for controlling the operation of an inverter and an associated motor, characterized by the steps of: defining, individually, multiple operation commands in said inverter required for operation of the motor controlled by said inverter, said defining process being accomplished by means of an operation command input means; storing said multiple operation commands in a storage means as an operation command group, at selected addresses in said storage means; selecting an operation command group from among those stored in said storage means; reading said selected operation command group from said storage means; and operating said inverter to control said motor in accordance with said selected operation command group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
35 words
A process according to claim 1, characterized in that said storing of said modified operation command group stores said modified operation command group at the same addresses as those of said selected operation command group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
A process according to one of claims 1 or 2, characterized in that said defining and storing steps are repeated to store a plurality of operation command groups.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
91 words
A process for controlling the operation of an inverter, characterized by the steps of; defining, individually, multiple operation commands in said inverter required for operation of a device controlled by said inverter, said defining process being accomplished by means of an operation command input means; storing said multiple operation commands in a storage means as an operation command group, at selected addresses in said storage means; and repeating said defining and storing steps a plurality of times so that a plurality of operation command groups are stored in said storage means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
53 words
A process according to claim 2, characterized by further comprising the steps of: selecting one of said plurality of operation command groups stored in said storage means; reading said selected operation command group from said storage means; and operating said inverter to control said device in accordance with said selected operation command group.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
61 words
A process according to one of claims 1 - 5, characterized by further comprising the steps of: modifying, in whole or in part, the individual operation commands in said selected operation command group; and storing said modified operation command group in said storage means as a new operation command group at addresses different from those of said selected operation command group.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
73 words
An apparatus for controlling the operation of an inverter (4), characterized by: operation command input means (22, 34) for defining, individually, multiple operation commands in said inverter (4) required for operation of a device (5) controlled by said inverter (4); memory means (32) for storing said multiple operation commands as an operation command group; and means (31) for writing said multiple operation commands into said memory means (32) as said operation command group.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
63 words
An apparatus according to claim 7, characterized by further comprising: selecting means (31) for selecting an operation command group stored in said memory means (32); reading means for reading said selected operation command group from said memory means; and operating means (33) for operating said inverter (4) to control said device (5) in accordance with operation commands from said selected operation command group.
Claim 9
Independent Claim
25 words
An apparatus according to one of claims 7 or 8, characterized in that said device (5) controlled by said inverter (4) is an induction motor.
Claim 10
Independent Claim
46 words
An apparatus according to one of claims 6 - 9, characterized in that said memory means (32) stores a plurality of different operation command groups, each of said plurality of different operation command groups corresponding to different application purpose and load conditions of said device (5).
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
63 words
An apparatus according to claim 8, characterized in that said memory means (32) stores a plurality of different operation command groups, each of said plurality of different operation command groups corresponding to a different application or load condition of said device (5); and said selecting means (31) selects one of said plurality of said operation command groups stored in said memory means (32).
