So I got the VFD and the motor all wired up. Kind of not the way I had originally envisioned the setup and probably not permanent. But I wanted to try and get it running. I was hoping for a simple "turn it on and go" but something is not right. The VFD powers up but the motor seems to be locked up like it does not know which way to turn. I can hear something spinning inside the motor but the shaft does not start spinning. The readout on the VFD reads 21.5 and none of the buttons seem to do anything except the "Run/Stop" button which turns on and off whatever is spinning inside the motor. Input checks out at 220. Motor wiring is correct for 220. All connections are solid. Perplexed....
