SynRM: Synchronous reluctance motor
3. Set the motor control mode:
Vector: Speed reference. This is suitable for most cases. The drive does an
automatic stand-still ID run.
Page 24
24 Start-up, ID run and use
Scalar: Frequency reference.
Use this mode when:
- The number of motors can change.
- The nominal motor current is less than 20% of the nominal drive current.
Scalar mode is not recommended for permanent magnet motors.
4. Set the nominal motor values:
•Nominal power
•Nominal current
•Nominal voltage
•Nominal frequency
•Nominal speed
•Nominal torque (optional)
•Nominal cosphi
5. Examine the direction of the motor.
If it is necessary, set the motor direction with the Phase order setting or with the
phase order of the motor cable.
6. In the Motor control view, set the start and stop mode.
7. Set the acceleration time and the deceleration time.
Note: The speed acceleration and deceleration ramp times are based on the
value in parameter 46.01 Speed scaling/46.02 Frequency scaling.
8. Set the maximum and minimum speed or frequency. For more information, see
parameters 30.11Minimum speed /30.13Minimum frequency and 30.12
Maximum speed/30.14 Maximum frequency on page 218.
9. In the Control macros view, select the applicable macro.
For units with a fieldbus adapter connected: you can see the fieldbus in the
Control macros view. There are certain parameters that you need to change, eg.
the station ID. See chapter Fieldbus control through a fieldbus adapter.
10. Tune the drive parameters to the application. You can use the Assistant control
panel (ACS-AP-x), or the Drive Composer PC tool with the drive.
Page 25
Start-up, ID run and use 25
Do the identification (ID) run
Background information
The drive automatically estimates motor characteristics using Standstill ID run when
the drive is started for the first time, and after any motor parameter (group 99 Motor
data) is changed. This is valid when:
• parameter 99.13 ID run requested selection is Standstill and
• parameter 99.04 Motor control mode selection isVector.
In most applications there is no need to perform a separate ID run. Select the ID run
for demanding motor control connections. For example:
• permanent magnet motor (PMSM) is used
• drive operates near zero speed references, or
• operation at torque range above the motor nominal torque, over a wide speed
range is needed.
Note: If you change the motor parameters after the ID run, you need to repeat the
run.
Note: If you have already parameterized your application using scalar motor control
mode and you need to change to vector:
• in the Motor data submenu, set Motor control to Vector , or set parameter 99.04Motor control mode selection to Vector.
• for I/O controlled drive, check parameters in groups 22 Speed reference
selection, 23 Speed reference ramp, 12 Standard AI, 30 Limits and 46
Monitoring/scaling settings.
• for torque controlled drive, check also parameters in group 26 Torque reference
chain.

Fieldbus control macro
Fieldbus control macro is suitable for a fieldbus-controlled drive. The I/O signal
interface is not in use as default.
In the initial start-up of the drive, the fieldbus control macro activates automatically
whenever it detects a fieldbus adapter. For more information, see Automatic drive
configuration for fieldbus control on page 491.
You can activate the macro manually from the Control macros view, or by setting
parameter 96.04Macro select to the correct value based on the selected fieldbus.
The macro is optimal for the configured variant (ACS380-04xC) which is equipped
with a fieldbus adapter module.

Control macros 37
When the fieldbus adapter module is connected, the drive control signals are
expected to come from the fieldbus typically.
When taking the drive variant ACS380-04xC +K495 (with the BCAN-11 CANopen
interface module) into use, it is recommended that the cord is not connected during
the first start. This is to avoid disturbing the CANopen bus when the drive attempts to
recognize the attached module.
The software automatically sets the relevant parameters when the fieldbus adapter
module is connected to the drive. For more information, see Automatic drive
configuration for fieldbus control on page 491. For CANopen parameters, see
CANopen parameter settings for embedded fieldbus interface on page 443.

Local and external control locations
There are two main control locations: local and external. Select the control by
pressing the Loc/Rem key on the panels, or from the Drive composer PC tool.
Local control
The control commands are given from the integrated control panel or from a PC
equipped with Drive composer when the drive is in local control. Local control is
mainly used during commissioning and maintenance. The control panel always
overrides the external control signal sources when used in local control.
Changing the control location to local can be prevented by parameter 19.17 Local
control disable.
Note: You can use both assistant control panel/drive composer tool at the same time,
but only one can be in local control at a time.

• the fieldbus interface (via the embedded fieldbus interface or an optional fieldbus
adapter module)
• external panel (assistant panel).
Two external control locations, EXT1 and EXT2, are available. You can select the
sources of the start and stop commands separately for each location by setting
parameters 20.01...20.10. The operating mode can be selected separately for each
location, which enables quick switching between different operating modes, for
example speed and torque control. Selection between EXT1 and EXT2 is done via
any binary source such as a digital input or fieldbus control word by parameter 19.11
Ext1/Ext2 selection. You can also select the source of reference for each operating
mode separately, and the operation mode.

Speed control mode
In speed control mode, the motor follows a speed reference given to the drive. This
mode can be used with either estimated or measured speed used as feedback.
Speed control mode is available in both local and external control locations. It is
supported in vector motor control only.
Speed control uses speed reference chain. Select speed reference with parameters
in group 22 Speed reference selection on page 177.
Torque control mode
In torque control mode, the motor torque follows a torque reference given to the drive.
Torque control mode is available in both local and external control locations. It is
supported in vector motor control only.
Torque control uses torque reference chain. Select torque reference with parameters
in group 26 Torque reference chain on page 199.
Frequency control mode
In frequency control mode, the motor follows the drive output frequency reference.
Frequency control is available in both local and external control location. It is
supported in scalar motor control only.
Frequency control uses frequency reference chain. Select frequency reference with
parameters in group 28 Frequency reference chain on page 203.
Special control modes
In addition to the above-mentioned operating modes, the following special operating
modes are available:
• Process PID control. For more information, see section Process PID control on
page 81.
• Emergency stop modes OFF1 and OFF3: Drive stops along the defined
deceleration ramp and drive modulation stops.
• Jogging mode: Drive starts and accelerates to the defined speed when the
jogging signal is activated. For more information, see section Jogging on page 70.
• Pre-magnetization: DC magnetization of the motor before start. For more
information, see section Pre-magnetization on page 77.
• DC hold: Locking the rotor at (near) zero speed in the middle of normal operation.
For more information, see section DC hold on page 77.
• Pre-heating (motor heating): Keeping the motor warm when the drive is stopped.
For more information, see section Pre-heating (Motor heating) on page 78.

Autophasing
Autophasing is an automatic measurement routine to determine the angular position
of the magnetic flux of a permanent magnet synchronous motor or the magnetic axis
of a synchronous reluctance motor. The motor control requires the absolute position
of the rotor flux in order to control motor torque accurately.
Sensors like absolute encoders and resolvers indicate the rotor position at all times
after the offset between the zero angle of rotor and that of the sensor has been
established. On the other hand, a standard pulse encoder determines the rotor
position when it rotates but the initial position is not known. However, a pulse encoder
can be used as an absolute encoder if it is equipped with Hall sensors, albeit with
coarse initial position accuracy. Hall sensors generate so-called commutation pulses
that change their state six times during one revolution, so it is only known within
which 60° sector of a complete revolution the initial position is.
Many encoders give a zero pulse (also called Z-pulse) once during each rotation. The
position of the zero pulse is fixed. If this position is known with respect to zero
position used by motor control, the rotor position at the instant of the zero pulse is
also known.
Using the zero pulse improves the robustness of the rotor position measurement. The
rotor position must be determined during starting because the initial value given by
the encoder is zero. The autophasing routine determines the position, but there is a
risk of some position error. If the zero pulse position is known in advance, the position
found by autophasing can be corrected as soon as the zero pulse is detected for the
first time after starting.
Page 58
58 Program features
The autophasing routine is performed with permanent magnet synchronous motors
and synchronous reluctance motors in the following cases:
1. One-time measurement of the rotor and encoder position difference when an
absolute encoder, a resolver, or an encoder with commutation signals is used
2. At every power-up when an incremental encoder is used
3. With open-loop motor control, repetitive measurement of the rotor position at
every start
4. When the position of the zero pulse must be measured before the first start after
power-up.
Note: In closed-loop control, autophasing is performed automatically after the motor
identification run (ID run). Autophasing is also performed automatically before starting
when necessary.
In open-loop control, the zero angle of the rotor is determined before starting. In
closed-loop control, the actual angle of the rotor is determined with autophasing when
the sensor indicates zero angle. The offset of the angle must be determined because
the actual zero angles of the sensor and the rotor do not usually match. The
autophasing mode determines how this operation is done both in open-loop and
closed-loop control.
The rotor position offset used in motor control can also be given by the user – see
parameter 98.15Position offset user. Note that the autophasing routine also writes its
result into this parameter. The results are updated even if user settings are not
enabled by 98.01User motor model mode.
Note: In open-loop control, the motor always turns when it is started as the shaft is
turned towards the remanence flux.
Bit 4 of 06.21Drive status word 3 indicates if the rotor position has already been
determined.
Autophasing modes
The ACS380 uses turning mode (see parameter 21.13Autophasing mode).
The turning mode (Turning ) is the most robust and accurate method. In turning mode,
the motor shaft is turned back and forward (±360/polepairs)° in order to determine the
rotor position. In case 3 (open-loop control), the shaft is turned only in one direction
and the angle is smaller.
The drive is capable of determining the rotor position when started into a running
motor in open-loop or closed-loop control. In this situation, the setting of 21.13
Autophasing mode has no effect.
The autophasing routine can fail and therefore it is recommended to perform the
routine several times and check the value of parameter 98.15Position offset user.
Page 59
Program features 59
An autophasing fault (3385 Autophasing) can occur with a running motor if the
estimated angle of the motor differs too much from the measured angle. This could
be caused by, for example, the following:
• The encoder is slipping on the motor shaft
• An incorrect value has been entered into 98.15 Position offset user
• The motor is already turning before the autophasing routine is started
• Turning mode is selected in 21.13Autophasing mode but the motor shaft is
locked
• The wrong motor type is selected in 99.03Motor type
• Motor ID run has failed.

Drive configuration and programming
The drive control program is divided into two parts:
• firmware program
• application program
Drive control program
The firmware program performs the main control functions, including speed, torque
and frequency control, drive logic (start/stop), I/O, feedback, communication and
protection functions. Firmware functions are configured and programmed with
parameters, and can be extended by application programming
Programming via parameters
Parameters configure all of the standard drive operations and can be set via
• the integrated panel, as described in chapter Control panel
• an external panel
• the Drive composer PC tool, as described in Drive composer PC tool user’s manual (3AUA0000094606 [English]), or
• the fieldbus interface, as described in chapters Fieldbus control through the
embedded fieldbus interface (EFB) and Fieldbus control through a fieldbus
adapter.
All parameter settings are stored automatically to the permanent memory of the drive.
However, if an external +24 V DC power supply is used for the drive control unit, it is
highly recommended to force a save by using parameter 96.07Parameter save
manually before powering down the control unit after any parameter changes have
been made.
If necessary, the default parameter values can be restored by parameter 96.06
Parameter restore.

Program features 61
Adaptive programming
Conventionally, you can control the operation of the drive by parameters. However,
the standard parameters have a fixed set of choices or a setting range. To further
customize the operation of the drive, an adaptive program can be constructed out of a
set of function blocks.
The Drive composer pro PC tool (version 1.11 or later, available separately) has an
Adaptive programming feature with a graphical user interface for building the custom
program. The function blocks include the usual arithmetic and logical functions, as
well as e.g., selection, comparison and timer blocks.
The physical inputs, drive status information, actual values, constants and
parameters can be used as the input for the program. The output of the program can
be used e.g., as a start signal, external event or reference, or connected to the drive
outputs. See the table below for a listing of the available inputs and outputs.
If you connect the output of the adaptive program to a selection parameter that is a
pointer parameter, the selection parameter will be write-protected.
Example:
If parameter 31.01 External event 1 source is connected to an adaptive
programming block output, the parameter value is shown as Adaptive program on
a control panel or PC-tool. The parameter is write-protected (= the selection
cannot be changed).
The status of the adaptive program is shown by parameter 07.30Adaptive program
status.
For more information, see the Adaptive programming application guide

Adaptive program fault and aux code formats
The format of the aux code:
Bits 24-31: State numberBits 16-23: block numberBits 0-15: error code
If the state number is zero but the block number has a value, the fault is related to a
function block in the base program. If both state number and block number are zero,
the fault is a generic fault that is not related to a specific block.
Sequence program
An adaptive program can contain base program and sequence program parts. Base
program is run continuously when adaptive program is in running mode. The
functionality of the base program is programmed using function blocks and system
inputs and outputs.
Sequence program is a state machine. This means that only one state of the

Motor types
The drive supports the following motor types:
• Asynchronous AC induction motors
• Permanent magnet (PM) motors
• Synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM).
Settings
Parameter 99.03Motor type (page 347).
Motor identification
The performance of vector control is based on an accurate motor model determined
during the motor start-up.
A motor Identification magnetization is automatically performed the first time the start
command is given. During this first start-up, the motor is magnetized at zero speed
for several seconds to allow the motor model to be created. This identification method
is suitable for most applications.
In demanding applications a separate Identification run (ID run) can be performed.
Settings
Parameter 99.13ID run requested (page 350).
Power loss ride-through
See section Undervoltage control (power loss ride-through) on page 90.
Vector control
Vector control is the motor control mode which is intended for applications where high
control accuracy is needed. It requires an identification run at startup. Vector control
cannot be used in all applications.
The switching of the output semiconductors is controlled to achieve the required
stator flux and motor torque. The switching frequency is changed only if the actual
torque and stator flux values differ from their reference values by more than the
allowed hysteresis. The reference value for the torque controller comes from the
speed controller or directly from an external torque reference source.
Motor control requires measurement of the DC voltage and two motor phase
currents. Stator flux is calculated by integrating the motor voltage in vector space.
Motor torque is calculated as a cross product of the stator flux and the rotor current.
By utilizing the identified motor model, the stator flux estimate is improved. Actual
motor shaft speed is not needed for the motor control.
Page 67
Program features 67
The main difference between traditional control and vector control is that torque
control operates at the same time level as the power switch control. There is no
separate voltage and frequency controlled PWM modulator; the output stage
switching is wholly based on the electromagnetic state of the motor.
The best motor control accuracy is achieved by activating a separate motor
identification run (ID run).

Settings
Parameters 99.04 Motor control mode (page 347) and 99.13ID run requested (page

Reference ramping
Acceleration and deceleration ramping times can be set individually for speed, torque
and frequency reference.
With a speed or frequency reference, the ramps are defined as the time it takes for
the drive to accelerate or decelerate between zero speed or frequency and the value
defined by parameter 46.01 Speed scaling or 46.02 Frequency scaling. The user can
switch between two preset ramp sets using a binary source such as a digital input.
For speed reference, also the shape of the ramp can be controlled.
With a torque reference, the ramps are defined as the time it takes for the reference
to change between zero and nominal motor torque (01.30 Nominal torque scale).
Variable slope
Variable slope controls the slope of the speed ramp during a reference change. With
this feature a constantly variable ramp can be used.
Variable slope is only supported in remote control.
Constant speeds and frequencies are predefined references that can be quickly
activated, for example, through digital inputs. It is possible to define up to 7 speeds
for speed control and 7 constant frequencies for frequency control.
WAR NIN G: Speeds and frequencies override the normal reference
irrespective of where the reference is coming from.
Settings
Parameter groups 22 Speed reference selection (page 177) and 28 Frequency
reference chain (page 203).
Critical speeds/frequencies
Critical speeds (sometimes called “skip speeds”) can be predefined for applications
where it is necessary to avoid certain motor speeds or speed ranges because of, for
example, mechanical resonance problems.
The critical speeds function prevents the reference from dwelling within a critical band
for extended times. When a changing reference enters a critical range, the output of
the function freezes until the reference exits the range. Any instant change in the
output is smoothed out by the ramping function further in the reference chain.
When the drive is limiting the allowed output speeds/frequencies, it limits to the
absolutely lowest critical speed (critical speed low or critical frequency low) when
accelerating from standstill, unless the speed reference is over the upper critical
speed/ frequency limit.

Scalar motor control
Scalar motor control is the default motor control method. It is suitable for applications
which do not require the control accuracy available in vector control. In scalar control,
you control the drive output frequency reference, and you do not need to do any
motor identification run at the first start.
It is recommended to activate scalar motor control mode in the following special
situations:
• In multimotor drives: 1) if the load is not equally shared between the motors, 2) if
the motors are of different sizes, or 3) if the motors are going to be changed after
motor identification (ID run)
• If the nominal current of the motor is less than 1/6 of the nominal output current of
the drive
Note: During this time, do not activate the motor phase loss fault (31.19Motor
phase loss) as the drive cannot measure the motor current accurately.
• If the drive is used without a motor connected (for example, for test purposes)
• If the drive runs a medium-voltage motor through a step-up transformer.
In scalar control, some features are not available.
See also section Operating modes and motor control modes on page 54.
IR compensation for scalar motor control
IR compensation (also known as
voltage boost) is available only when
the motor control mode is scalar. When
IR compensation is activated, the drive
gives an extra voltage boost to the
motor at low speeds. IR compensation
is useful in applications that require a
high break-away torque.
In vector control, no IR compensation is
possible or needed as it is applied
automatically.

The User load curve provides a supervisory function that monitors an input signal as
a function of frequency or speed, and load. It shows the status of the monitored signal
and can give a warning or fault based on the violation of a user defined profile.
The user load curve consists of an overload and an underload curve, or just one of
them. Each curve is formed by five points that represent the monitored signal as a
function of frequency or speed.
In the example below, the user load curve is constructed from the motor nominal
torque to which a 10% margin is added and subtracted. The margin curves define a
working envelope for the motor so that excursions outside the envelope can be
supervised, timed and detected.
An overload warning and/or fault can be set to occur if the monitored signal stays
continuously over the overload curve for a defined time. An underload warning and/or
fault can be set to occur if the monitored signal stays continuously under the
underload for a defined time.
Overload can be for example used to monitor for a saw blade hitting a knot or fan
load profiles becoming too high.
Underload can be for example used to monitor for load dropping and breaking of
conveyer belts or fan belts.

U/f ratio
The U/f function is only available in scalar motor control mode, which uses frequency
control.
The function has two modes: linear and squared.
In linear mode, the ratio of voltage to frequency is constant below the field weakening
point. This is used in constant torque applications where it may be necessary to
produce torque at or near the rated torque of the motor throughout the frequency
range
In squared mode, the ratio of the voltage to frequency increases as the square of the
frequency below the field weakening point. This is typically used in centrifugal pump
or fan applications. For these applications, the torque required follows the square
relationship with frequency. Therefore, if the voltage is varied using the square
relationship, the motor operates at improved efficiency and lower noise levels in
these applications.
The U/f function cannot be used with energy optimization; if parameter 45.11Energy
optimizer is set to Enable, parameter 97.20 U/F ratio is ignored.
Settings
Parameter 97.20U/F ratio (page 344).
Flux braking
The drive can provide greater deceleration by raising the level of magnetization in the
motor. By increasing the motor flux, the energy generated by the motor during
braking can be converted to motor thermal energy.
The drive monitors the motor status continuously, also during flux braking. Therefore,
flux braking can be used both for stopping the motor and for changing the speed. The
other benefits of flux braking are:
Page 77
Program features 77
• The braking starts immediately after a stop command is given. The function does
not need to wait for the flux reduction before it can start the braking.
• The cooling of the induction motor is efficient. The stator current of the motor
increases during flux braking, not the rotor current. The stator cools much more
efficiently than the rotor.
• Flux braking can be used with induction motors and permanent magnet motors.
Two braking power levels are available:
• Moderate braking provides faster deceleration compared to a situation where flux
braking is disabled. The flux level of the motor is limited to prevent excessive
heating of the motor.
• Full braking exploits almost all available current to convert the mechanical braking
energy to motor thermal energy. Braking time is shorter compared to moderate
braking. In cyclic use, motor heating may be significant.
WARNING: The motor needs to be rated to absorb the thermal energy
generated by flux braking.
Settings
Parameter 97.05Flux braking (page 341).
DC magnetization
The drive has different magnetization functions for different phases of motor
start/rotation/stop: pre-magnetization, DC hold, post-magnetization and pre-heating
(motor heating).
Pre-magnetization
Pre-magnetization refers to DC magnetization of the motor before start. Depending
on the selected start mode (vector or scalar) pre-magnetization can be applied to
guarantee the highest possible breakaway torque, up to 200% of the nominal torque
of the motor. By adjusting the pre-magnetization time, it is possible to synchronize the
motor start and, for example, the release of a mechanical brake.
Settings
Parameters 21.01Vector start mode (page 169), 21.19Scalar start mode (page 175)
and 21.02Magnetization time (page 170).
DC hold
The function makes it possible to lock the rotor at (near) zero speed in the middle of
normal operation. DC hold is activated by parameter 21.08. When both the reference
and motor speed drop below a certain level, the drive will stop generating sinusoidal

Parameters 21.08DC current control (page 173), 21.09DC hold speed (page 173)
and 21.10DC current reference (page 173).
Post-magnetization
The function keeps the motor magnetized for a certain period after stopping. This is to
prevent the machinery from moving under load, for example before a mechanical
brake can be applied. Post-magnetization is activated by parameter 21.08. The
magnetization current is set by parameter 21.10.
Note: Post-magnetization is only available when ramping is the selected stop mode.
Settings
Parameters 21.01Vector start mode (page 169), 21.02 Magnetization time (page

hold speed (page 173) and 21.11 Post magnetization time (page 173).
Pre-heating (Motor heating)
The pre-heating function keeps the motor warm and prevents condensation inside the
motor by feeding it with DC current when the drive has been stopped. The heating
can only be activated when the drive is in the stopped state, and starting the drive
stops the heating.
When pre-heating is activated and the stop command is given, pre-heating starts
immediately if the drive is running below the zero speed limit (see bit 0 in parameter
06.19 Speed control status word). If the drive is running above the zero speed limit,
Page 79
Program features 79
pre-heating is delayed by the time defined by parameter 21.15 Pre-heating time delay
to prevent excessive current.
The function can be defined to be always active when the drive is stopped or it can be
activated by a digital input, fieldbus, timed function or supervision function. For
example, with the help of signal supervision function, the heating can be activated by
a thermal measurement signal from the motor.
The pre-heating current fed to the motor can be defined as 0…30% of the nominal
motor current.
Notes:
• In applications where the motor keeps rotating for a long time after the modulation
is stopped, it is recommended to use ramp stop with pre-heating to prevent a
sudden pull at the rotor when the pre-heating is activated.
• The heating function requires that STO is not triggered.
• The heating function requires that the drive is not faulted.
• Pre-heating uses DC hold to produce current.
Settings
Parameters 21.14 Pre-heating input source (page 174), 21.15 Pre-heating time delay

Energy optimization
The Energy optimization function optimizes the motor flux so that total energy
consumption and motor noise level are reduced when the drive operates below the
nominal load. The total efficiency (motor and drive) can be improved by 1…20%
depending on load torque and speed.
Note: With a permanent magnet motor and synchronous reluctance motor, energy
optimization is always enabled.
Settings
Parameter 45.11Energy optimizer (page 286).
Switching frequency
The drive has two switching frequencies: reference switching frequency and
minimum switching frequency. The drive tries to keep the highest allowed switching
frequency (= reference switching frequency) if thermally possible, and then adjusts
dynamically between the reference and minimum switching frequencies depending
on the drive temperature. When the drive reaches the minimum switching frequency
(= lowest allowed switching frequency), it starts to limit output current as the heating
up continues.
For derating, see the hardware manual of the drive.

Example 1: If you need to fix the switching frequency to a certain value as with some
external filters, e.g. with EMC C1 filters (see the hardware manual), set both the
reference and the minimum switching frequency to this value and the drive will retain
this switching frequency.
Example 2: If the reference switching frequency is set to 12 kHz and the minimum
switching frequency is set to 1.5 kHz (or 1 kHz), the drive maintains the highest
possible switching frequency to reduce motor noise and only when the drive heats it
will decrease the switching frequency. This is useful, for example, in applications
where low noise is necessary but higher noise can be tolerated when the full output
current is needed.
Settings
Parameters 97.01Switching frequency reference (page 340) and 97.02Minimum
switching frequency (page 340).
Speed compensated stop
Speed compensation stop is available for example for applications where a conveyer
needs to travel a certain distance after receiving the stop command. At maximum
speed, the motor is stopped normally along the defined deceleration ramp, after the
application of a user defined delay to adjust the distance traveled. Below maximum
speed, stop is delayed still more by running the drive at current speed before the
motor is ramped to a stop. As shown in the figure, the distance traveled after the stop
command is the same in both cases, that is, area A + area B equals area C.
Speed compensation does not take into account shape times (parameters 23.32
Shape time 1 and 23.33 Shape time 2). Positive shape times lengthen the distance
traveled.

Control macros.
Process PID control
There is a built-in process PID controller in the drive. The controller can be used to
control process such as pressure or flow in the pipe or fluid level in the container.
In process PID control, a process reference (setpoint) is connected to the drive
instead of a speed reference. An actual value (process feedback) is also brought
back to the drive. The process PID control adjusts the drive speed in order to keep
the measured process quantity (actual value) at the desired level (setpoint). This
means that user does not need to set a frequency/speed/torque reference to the drive
but the drive adjust its operation according to the process PID.
The simplified block diagram below illustrates the process PID control.
The drive contains two complete sets of process PID controller settings that can be
alternated whenever necessary; see parameter 40.57PID set1/set2 selection.
Note: Process PID control is only available in external control; see section Local and
external control locations on page 52.
Page 82
82 Program features
Sleep and boost functions for process PID control
The sleep function is suitable for PID control applications where the consumption
varies, such as clean water pumping systems. When used, it stops the pump
completely during low demand, instead of running the pump slowly below its efficient
operating range. The following example visualizes the operation of the function.
Example: The drive controls a pressure boost pump. The water consumption falls at
night. As a consequence, the process PID controller decreases the motor speed.
However, due to natural losses in the pipes and the low efficiency of the centrifugal
pump at low speeds, the motor would never stop rotating. The sleep function detects
the slow rotation and stops the unnecessary pumping after the sleep delay has
passed. The drive shifts into sleep mode, still monitoring the pressure. The pumping
resumes when the pressure falls under the predefined minimum level and the wakeup delay has passed.
The user can extend the PID sleep time by the boost functionality. The boost
functionality increases the process setpoint for a predetermined time before the drive
enters the sleep mode.
In tracking mode, the PID block output is set directly to the value of parameter 40.50
Set 1 tracking ref selection (or 41.50 Set 2 tracking ref selection).The internal I term
of the PID controller is set so that no transient is allowed to pass on to the output, so
when the tracking mode is left, normal process control operation can be resumed
without a significant bump.

Mechanical brake control
A mechanical brake can be used for holding the motor and driven machinery at zero
speed when the drive is stopped, or not powered. The brake control logic observes
the settings of parameter group 44 Mechanical brake control as well as several
external signals, and moves between the states presented in the diagram on
page 85. The tables below the state diagram detail the states and transitions. The
timing diagram on page 87 shows an example of a close-open-close sequence.
For application example, see section Crane mechanical brake control on page 533.
Inputs of the brake control logic
The start command of the drive (bit 5 of 06.16Drive status word 1) is the main control
source of the brake control logic. An optional external open/close signal can be
selected by 44.12Brake close request. The two signals interact as follows:
• Start command = 1 AND signal selected by 44.12Brake close request = 0
→
Request brake to open
• Start command = 0 OR signal selected by 44.12Brake close request = 1
→
Request brake to close
Another external signal – for example, from a higher-level control system – can be
connected via parameter 44.11 Keep brake closed to prevent the brake from opening.

Outputs of the brake control logic
The mechanical brake is controlled by bit 0 of parameter 44.01Brake control status.
This bit should be selected as the source of a relay output (or a digital input/output in
output mode) which is then wired to the brake actuator through a relay. See the wiring
example on page 88.
The brake control logic, in various states, will request the drive control logic to hold
the motor, increase the torque, or ramp down the speed. These requests are visible in
parameter 44.01 Brake control status.

Wiring example
The figure below shows a brake control wiring example. The brake control hardware
and wiring is to be sourced and installed by the customer.
WAR NIN G! Make sure that the machinery into which the drive with brake
control function is integrated fulfills the personnel safety regulations. Note that
the frequency converter (a Complete Drive Module or a Basic Drive Module, as
defined in IEC/EN 61800-2), is not considered as a safety device mentioned in the
European Machinery Directive and related harmonized standards. Thus, the
personnel safety of the complete machinery must not be based on a specific
frequency converter feature (such as the brake control function), but it has to be
implemented as defined in the application specific regulations.
The brake is controlled by bit 0 of parameter 44.01Brake control status. The source
of brake acknowledge (status supervision) is selected by parameter 44.07Brake
acknowledge selection. In this example,
• parameter 10.24 RO1 source is set to Open brake command (ie. bit 0 of 44.01

• parameter 44.07 Brake acknowledge selection is set to DIO1.

DC voltage control
Overvoltage control
Overvoltage control of the intermediate DC link is typically needed when the motor is
in generating mode. The motor can generate when it decelerates or when the load
overhauls the motor shaft, causing the shaft to turn faster than the applied speed or
frequency. To prevent the DC voltage from exceeding the overvoltage control limit,
the overvoltage controller automatically decreases the generating torque when the
limit is reached. The overvoltage controller also increases any programmed
deceleration times if the limit is reached; to achieve shorter deceleration times, a
brake chopper and resistor may be required.
Undervoltage control (power loss ride-through)
If the incoming supply voltage is cut off, the drive will continue to operate by utilizing
the kinetic energy of the rotating motor. The drive will be fully operational as long as
the motor rotates and generates energy to the drive. The drive can continue
operation after the break if the main contactor (if present) remained closed.
Note: Units equipped with a main contactor must be equipped with a hold circuit (e.g.
UPS) to keep the contactor control circuit closed during a short supply break.
Page 91
Program features 91
Implementing the undervoltage control (power loss ride-through)
Implement the undervoltage control function as follows:
• Check that the undervoltage control function of the drive is enabled with
parameter 30.31 Undervoltage control.
• Parameter 21.01Vector start mode must be set to Automatic (in vector mode) or
parameter 21.19 Scalar start mode to Automatic (in scalar mode) to make flying
start (starting into a rotating motor) possible.
If the installation is equipped with a main contactor, prevent its tripping at the input
power break. For example, use a time delay relay (hold) in the contactor control
circuit.
WARNING! Make sure that the flying restart of the motor will not cause any
danger. If you are in doubt, do not implement the undervoltage control function.
Automatic restart
It is possible to restart the drive automatically after a short (max. 10 seconds) power
supply failure by using the Automatic restart function, provided that the drive is
allowed to run for 10 seconds without the cooling fans operating.
When enabled, the function takes the following actions upon a supply failure to
enable a successful restart:
• The undervoltage fault is suppressed (but a warning is generated).
• Modulation and cooling is stopped to conserve any remaining energy.
• DC circuit pre-charging is enabled.
If the DC voltage is restored before the expiration of the period defined by parameter
21.18 Auto restart time and the start signal is still on, normal operation will continue.
However, if the DC voltage remains too low at that point, the drive trips on a fault,
3220 DC link undervoltage.
WARNING! Before you activate the function, make sure that no dangerous
situations can occur. The function restarts the drive automatically and
continues operation after a supply break.
Voltage control and trip limits
The control and trip limits of the intermediate DC voltage regulator are relative to the
supply voltage as well as drive/inverter type. The DC voltage (U
1.35 times the line-to-line supply voltage, and is displayed by parameter 01.11 DC

Brake chopper
A brake chopper can be used to handle the energy generated by a decelerating
motor. When the DC voltage rises high enough, the chopper connects the DC circuit
to an external brake resistor. The chopper operation is based on hysteresis.
The internal brake choppers in the drive (in frames R0…R3) start conducting at
internal brake chopper start limit 780 V and stop conducting at internal brake chopper
stop limit 760 V (AC supply 380…480 V).
For information on external brake choppers, refer to the respective user manual.
Note: Overvoltage control needs to be disabled for the chopper to operate.

Limit to limit control
The Limit to limit control function restricts the forward and reverse movement of a
load inside two extreme points. The function supports the monitoring of two sensors
at both ends of the movement range: one for the slow down point and the other for
the stop point. The system installer must install the sensors (eg, limit switches) and
connect them to the drive.
In the forward direction, the function allows normal operation of the drive until the
movement reaches the forward limiting points:
- When the drive receives the forward slow down signal, it decelerates the speed
to the slow down speed. Slow down speed allows smooth transition to stop at a
later stage. Vector mode uses the Speed reference ramp (23.11... 23.15) and
Scalar mode the Freq reference ramp (28.71... 28.75).
- When the drive receives the forward stop signal, it stops the motor. It uses the
drive stop mode selection (21.03). The function allows start only in the reverse
direction.
In the reverse direction, the function monitors reverse slow down and reverse stop
signals. The operation is similar as in the forward direction.
You can enable the function by a parameter, and define the signal sources for the
forward slow down, forward stop, reverse slow down and reverse stop. You can also
define the slow down speed by a parameter.
The Limit to limit function detects the signal status changes only when the function is
active, and the load is moved by the drive and motor. The function does not update
the signal states in its state machine despite of the actual status changes:
1. when the user has deactivated or disabled the function
2. when the function has stopped the motor but the load is moved by a force other
than the drive and motor (e.g., by a gravity).
For application example, see sections Crane stop limit function on page 546, Crane
slowdown function on page 548, and Fast stop on page 550.

Limitations
• The external stop or slow down signals (in either direction) must not be on when
the Limit to limit function is activated for the first time. If that is not possible,
change the state manually to match the actual status in the Limit to limit state
parameter (76.01).
• When drive is stopped, the load must not be moved with external force (the drive
cannot monitor direction). If this happens, the Limit to limit state can be manually
changed to the correct one in parameter Limit to limit state parameter (76.01).
• Coast stop without mechanical brake may cause load moving without Limit to limit
control (drive is not controlling load movement). If this happens, the Limit to limit
state can be manually changed to the correct one in parameter Limit to limit state
parameter (76.01).
• When Limit to limit control is in Pulse mode then the state is saved over power
cycle. The load must not be moved when the drive is powered off. If this happens,
then Limit to limit state can be manually changed to the correct one in parameter
Limit to limit state parameter (76.01).

Tips
• You can connect Slow down and Stop signals into the same signal source by
setting the Stop limit and Slow down parameters to the same digital input (76.01
Forward stop limit = DI2 and 76.05 Forward slow down limit = DI2).
• You can change the Limit to limit state machine state with the parameter Limit to

Safety and protections
Fixed/Standard protections
Overcurrent
If the output current exceeds the internal overcurrent limit, the IGBTs are shut down
immediately to protect the drive.
DC overvoltage
See section Overvoltage control on page 90.
DC undervoltage
See section Undervoltage control (power loss ride-through) on page 90.
Drive temperature
If the temperature rises high enough, the drive first starts to limit the switching
frequency and then the current to protect itself. If it is still keeps heating up, for
example because of a fan failure, an overtemperature fault is generated.
Short circuit
In case of a short circuit, the IGBTs are shut down immediately to protect the drive.
Emergency stop
The emergency stop signal is connected to the input selected by parameter 21.05
Emergency stop source. An emergency stop can also be generated through fieldbus
(parameter 06.01 Main control word, bits 0…2).
The mode of the emergency stop is selected by parameter 21.04Emergency stop
mode. The following modes are available:
• Off1: Stop along the standard deceleration ramp defined for the particular
reference type in use
• Off2: Stop by coasting
• Off3: Stop by the emergency stop ramp defined by parameter 23.23Emergency
stop time.
• Stop torque.
With Off1 or Off3 emergency stop modes, the ramp-down of the motor speed can be
supervised by parameters 31.32 Emergency ramp supervision and 31.33 Emergency
ramp supervision delay.
Page 98
98 Program features
Notes:
• The installer of the equipment is responsible for installing the emergency stop
devices and all additional devices needed for the emergency stop function to fulfill
the required emergency stop categories.
• After an emergency stop signal is detected, the emergency stop function cannot
be canceled even though the signal is canceled.
• If the minimum (or maximum) torque limit is set to 0%, the emergency stop
function may not be able to stop the drive.
• During an emergency stop, the speed and torque reference parameters such as
reference ramp shapes (23.32Shape time 1 and 23.33 Shape time 2) are not
considered.
The control program features two separate motor temperature monitoring functions.
The temperature data sources and warning/trip limits can be set up independently for
each function.
The motor temperature can be monitored using
• the motor thermal protection model (estimated temperature derived internally
inside the drive), or
• sensors installed in the windings. This will result in a more accurate motor model.
Motor thermal protection model
The drive calculates the temperature of the motor on the basis of the following
assumptions:
1. When power is applied to the drive for the first time, the motor is assumed to be at
ambient temperature (defined by parameter 35.50Motor ambient temperature).
After this, when power is applied to the drive, the motor is assumed to be at the
estimated temperature.
2. Motor temperature is calculated using the user-adjustable motor thermal time and
motor load curve. The load curve should be adjusted in case the ambient
temperature exceeds 30 °C.
Note: The motor thermal model can be used when only one motor is connected to
the inverter.

Motor temperature measurement through the standard I/O
This section describes the temperature measurement of one motor when the drive
I/O terminals are used as the connection interface.
Motor temperature can be measured using Pt100 or PTC sensors connected to
analog input and output.
Warning! According to IEC 60664, the connection of the motor
temperature sensor requires double or reinforced insulation between
motor live parts and the sensor. Reinforced insulation entails a clearance
and creepage distance of 8 mm (0.3 in) (400/500 V AC equipment).
If the assembly does not fulfill the requirement, the I/O board terminals must be
protected against contact and they may not be connected to other equipment, or the
temperature sensor must be isolated from the I/O terminals.
Temperature monitoring using Pt100 sensors
1…3 Pt100 sensors can be connected in series to an analog input and an analog
output.
The analog output feeds a constant excitation current of 9.1 mA through the sensor.
The sensor resistance increases as the motor temperature rises, as does the voltage
over the sensor. The temperature measurement function reads the voltage through
the analog input and converts it into degrees Celsius.
It is possible to adjust the motor temperature supervision limits and select how the
drive reacts when overtemperature is detected.
For the wiring of the sensor, see chapter Electrical installation, AI1 and AI2 as Pt100, Pt1000, Ni1000, KTY83 and KTY84 sensor inputs (X1) in the Hardware manual of the
drive.
