Warning
If the Drive has been used
previously in keypad mode,
check that the value of
parameter 0.35 is zero
before proceeding with the
next step. If it is not zero,
use the speed control keys as

bipolar speed reference, continuing to press
this key after the motor has stopped will cause
the speed to increase in the reverse direction.
(For operation with a bipolar speed reference,
see the Commander Gp Advanced User Guide.)

speed at a convenient value and then press this
key. The speed reduces to zero then increases
to the set value in the opposite direction.
