If you need to run the drive open circuit without the motor connected:
Turn off the Drive and wait until the DC bus caps have discharged.
Turn off OPL ( F605) , set to 0  then set up F307 to 2
Now with the motor disconnected  you can run the VFD open circuit at 20  40 and 60hz.  Check your output voltage at each stage.
