    Would it not have been easier to keep the original drive but reverse the motor by using relays or contactors to swap the motor phases?

    As for the new drive, you should be able to set its parameters to take a 0-5V or 0-10V input signal from the pot (assuming that the 5K pot outputs 0-5V?). For the latching circuit, there should be a way to set that on the drive but you might need a linking wire somewhere in the start/stop/run terminals. Otherwise, you'll have to latch a relay instead.

    Hi and thanks for the response.
    Well, the original VFD I accidentally damaged. Its power module...a Gentron Powertherm B412F needs replacement but I have not managed to locate one yet.
    On the other hand, in order to set parameters for the IMO I need the user manual for VC150 and this is something really rare to find today.
    That's why i asked for help.
    Parajust pot outputs 0-10 volts thats the only thing i know.

    0-10V is the standard signal, so that's good news. Bad news is that you're gonna need a manual for that drive in order to set it up properly. You'll probably find that the manual for ANY if the IMO Jaguar range will be OK as they standardise on parameter numbers and functions and the start/stop/run/speed/etc terminal connections will be the same.

    Maybe one of these? Power Drive Services - Electric Motor Specialists - Fuji Manuals

    Damn it, I've somehow ended up on eBay looking at Jaguar XKR's and XF's. I hate this forum. :)
