ACS880
Local control vs. external control
The ACS880 has two main control locations: external and local. The control location
is selected with the Loc/Rem key on the control panel or in the PC tool.
Local control
The control commands are given from the control panel keypad or from a PC
equipped with Drive composer when the drive is in local control. Speed and torque
control modes are available for local control; frequency mode is available when scalar
motor control mode is used (see parameter 19.16 Local control mode).
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.
The user can select by a parameter (49.05 Communication loss action) how the drive
reacts to a control panel or PC tool communication break. (The parameter has no
effect in external control.)
Control locations and operating modes 19
External control
When the drive is in external control, control commands are given through the
fieldbus interface (via or an optional fieldbus adapter module), the I/O terminals
(digital and analog inputs), or optional I/O extension modules.
Two external control locations, EXT1 and EXT2, are available. The user can select
the sources of the start and stop commands separately for each location by
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 (see parameter
19.11 Ext1/Ext2 selection). The source of reference is selectable for each operating
mode separately.

Operating modes of the drive
The drive can operate in several operating modes with different types of reference.
The mode is selectable for each control location (Local, EXT1 and EXT2) in
parameter group 19 Operation mode.
The following is a general representation of the reference types and control chains.
The page numbers refer to detailed diagrams in chapter Control chain diagrams.
Speed control mode
The motor follows a speed reference given to the drive. This mode can be used either
with estimated speed used as feedback, or with an encoder or resolver for better
speed control accuracy.
Control locations and operating modes 21
Speed control mode is available in both local and external control. It is also available
both in DTC (Direct Torque Control) and scalar motor control modes.
Torque control mode
Motor torque follows a torque reference given to the drive. This mode can be used
either with or without an encoder or resolver. When used with an encoder or resolver,
this mode provides for more accurate and dynamic motor control.
Torque control mode is available in both local and external control.
Frequency control mode
The motor follows a frequency reference given to the drive. Frequency control is only
available for scalar motor control.
Special control modes
In addition to the above-mentioned control modes, the following special control
modes are available:
• Process PID control. For more information, see section Process PID control (page
38).
• 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 (page 31).

Drive configuration and programming
The drive control program is divided into two parts:
• firmware program
• application program.
The firmware program performs the main control functions, including speed and
torque control, drive logic (start/stop), I/O, feedback, communication and protection
functions. Firmware functions are configured and programmed with parameters.
Programming via parameters
Parameters can be set via
• the control panel, as described in chapter Using the control panel
• the Drive composer PC tool, as described in Drive composer 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 96.07 Parameter save
before powering down the control unit after any parameter changes.
If necessary, the default parameter values can be restored by parameter 96.06
Parameter restore.
Application programming
The functions of the firmware program can be extended with application
programming. (A standard drive delivery does not include an application program.)
Program features 25
Application programs can be built out of function blocks based on the IEC-61131
standard.
26 Program features
Control interfaces
Programmable analog inputs
The drive control unit has two programmable analog inputs. Each of the inputs can be
independently set as a voltage (0/2…10 V or -10…10 V) or current (0/4…20 mA)
input by a jumper on the drive control unit. Each input can be filtered, inverted and
scaled. The number of analog inputs can be increased by using FIO-xx I/O
extensions.
Settings
Parameter group 12 Standard AI (page 93).
Programmable analog outputs
The drive control unit has two current (0…20 mA) analog outputs. Each output can be
filtered, inverted and scaled. The number of analog outputs can be increased by
using FIO-xx I/O extensions.
Settings
Parameter group 13 Standard AO (page 95).
Programmable digital inputs and outputs
The drive has six digital inputs, a digital start interlock input, and two digital
input/outputs.
One digital input (DI6) doubles as a PTC thermistor input. See section Motor thermal
protection (page 49).
Digital input/output DIO1 can be used as a frequency input, DIO2 as a frequency
output.
The number of digital inputs/outputs can be increased by using FIO-xx I/O
extensions.
Settings
Parameter groups 10 Standard DI, RO (page 83) and 11 Standard DIO, FI, FO (page

Programmable relay outputs
The drive control unit has three relay outputs. The signal to be indicated by the
outputs can be selected by parameters.
Relay outputs can be added by using FIO-0x I/O extensions.

28 Program features
Motor control
Direct torque control (DTC)
The motor control of the ACS880 is based on direct torque control (DTC). 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.
The main difference between traditional control and DTC is that torque control has
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).
See also section Scalar motor control (page 33).
Settings
Parameters 99.04 Motor ctrl mode (page 220) and 99.13 Identification run request
(page 222).
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 (parameter 01.30 Nominal torque
scale).
Program features 29
Special acceleration/deceleration ramps
The acceleration/deceleration times for the jogging function can be defined
separately; see section Jogging (page 31). Furthermore, a deceleration ramp can be
defined for emergency stop (“Off3” mode).
Settings
• Speed reference ramping: Parameters 23.11…23.19 and 46.01
(pages 119 and 189).
• Torque reference ramping: Parameters 01.30, 26.18 and 26.19
(pages 77 and 133).
• Frequency reference ramping: Parameters 28.71…28.75 and 46.02
(pages 139 and 189).
• Jogging: Parameters 23.20 and 23.21 (page 122).
• Emergency stop (“Off3” mode): Parameter 23.23 Emergency stop time
(page 122).
Constant speeds (frequencies)
It is possible to predefine up to 7 constant speeds. Constant speeds can be activated,
for example, through digital inputs. Constant speeds override the normal speed
reference.
For frequency control, seven constant frequencies can be defined in the same way.
Settings
Parameter groups 22 Speed reference selection (page 113 ) and 28 Frequency
reference chain (page 135).
Critical speeds (frequencies)
A critical speeds function is available for applications where it is necessary to avoid
certain motor speeds or speed ranges because of, for example, mechanical
resonance problems.
A similar function is available for scalar motor control with a frequency reference.

• enable the critical speeds function by turning on bit 0 of parameter 22.51 Critical
speed function, and
• set the critical speed ranges as in the figure below.
Settings
Parameter groups 22 Speed reference selection (page 113 ) and 28 Frequency
reference chain (page 135).
Encoder support
The program supports two single-turn or multiturn encoders (or resolvers). The
following optional interface modules are available:
• Absolute encoder interface FEN-11: absolute encoder input, TTL input, TTL
output (for encoder emulation and echo) and two digital inputs for position latching
• Resolver interface FEN-21: resolver input, TTL input, TTL output (for encoder
emulation echo) and two digital inputs for position latching
• HTL encoder interface FEN-31: HTL encoder input, TTL output (for encoder
emulation and echo) and two digital inputs for position latching.
The interface module is installed onto any option slot on the drive control unit, or onto
an FEA-xx extension adapter.
Quick configuration of HTL encoder feedback
1. Specify the type of the encoder interface module (parameter 91.11 Module 1 type
= FEN-31) and the slot the module is installed into (91.12 Module 1 location).
2. Specify the type of the encoder (92.01 Encoder 1 type = HTL). The parameter
listing will be re-read from the drive after the value is changed.
