Okay so here’s what I found after I managed to get the boxes open for a peek inside. Appears to me that the VFD needs 3ph and the smaller box is sort of a remote for lack of a better word.
I’ve looked at the static converters that can be had cheaply, $75 or so. But the fact that it would derate my motor that’s already only a 1hp scares me. I’ve never run any machine and said to myself “I wish I had less power” but I’ve said the opposite on many occasions.
