I've just picked up a Sako SKI780 750w VFD

It works out of the box, but is a little underpowered, and anything past 15.00hz and the motor starts to squeal.

(Note: fixed this by increasing the carrier frequency to 110).

A few other queries - I see it exposes P+ and PB for breaking. I had hoped these could be used for access to the high power DC bus, but it only puts out ~10v DC so I doubt it. Wondered if there were any Chinese VFDs that would expose this bus, allowing parallel operation or DC only input.

Also, I noted it has an RJ45 port - but can see no reference to this in the manual, nothing about its purpose, default IP address, Modbus port etc. Am wondering if it is for a custom HMI and not Ethernet?

Thanks
