Resolution:
These drives do a calculation using the measured DC bus voltage to estimate the mains voltage (line supply). The drive measures the DC Bus internally and divides it by 1.414 (square root of 2) and then displays it as the Mains Voltage (ULn) In the monitor menu.
So, when given ULn, simply multiply by 1.414 to get the measured DC bus voltage value.
