The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent or incorrect installation or adjustment of the optional operating parameters of the equipment or from mismatching the variable speed drive with the motor.
The contents of this guide are believed to be correct at the time of printing. In the interests of a commitment to a policy of continuous development and improvement, the manufacturer reserves the right to change the specification of the product or its performance, or the contents of the guide, without notice.
All rights reserved. No parts of this guide may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electrical or mechanical including photocopying, recording or by an information storage or retrieval system, without permission in writing from the publisher.
Drive software version
This product is supplied with the latest software version. If this drive is to be connected to an existing system or machine, all drive software versions should be verified to confirm the same functionality as drives of the same model already present. This may also apply to drives returned from a Control Techniques Service Centre or Repair Centre. If there is any doubt please contact the supplier of the product.
The software version of the drive can be checked by looking at Pr 11.29 (di14/0.49) and Pr 11.34. This takes the form of xx.yy.zz where Pr 11.29 (di14/0.49) displays xx.yy and Pr 11.34 displays zz. (e.g. for software version 01.01.00, Pr 11.29 (di14/0.49) = 1.01 and Pr 11.34 displays 0).
Environmental statement
Control Techniques is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing operations and of its products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental Management System (EMS) which is certified to the International Standard ISO 14001. Further information on the EMS, our Environmental Policy and other relevant information is available on request, or can be found at www.greendrives.com.
The electronic variable-speed drives manufactured by Control Techniques have the potential to save energy and (through increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and scrap throughout their long working lifetime. In typical applications, these positive environmental effects far outweigh the negative impacts of product manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they must not be discarded but should instead be recycled by a specialist recycler of electronic equipment. Recyclers will find the products easy to dismantle into their major component parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap together and can be separated without the use of tools, while other parts are secured with conventional fasteners. Virtually all parts of the product are suitable for recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden crates, while smaller products come in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high recycled fibre content. If not re-used, these containers can be recycled. Polythene, used on the protective film and bags for wrapping product, can be recycled in the same way. Control Techniques' packaging strategy prefers easily-recyclable materials of low environmental impact, and regular reviews identify opportunities for improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation and best practice.
REACH legislation
EC Regulation 1907/2006 on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals (REACH) requires the supplier of an article to inform the recipient if it contains more than a specified proportion of any substance which is considered by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to be a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) and is therefore listed by them as a candidate for compulsory authorisation.
For current information on how this requirement applies in relation to specific Control Techniques products, please approach your usual contact in the first instance. Control Techniques position statement can be viewed at:

1 Safety Information

1.1 Warnings, Cautions and Notes

A Warning contains information which is essential for avoiding a safety hazard.
A Caution contains information which is necessary for avoiding a risk of damage to the product or other equipment.
A Note contains information which helps to ensure correct operation of the product.

1.2 Electrical safety - general warning

The voltages used in the drive can cause severe electrical shock and/or burns, and could be lethal. Extreme care is necessary at all times when working with or adjacent to the drive.
Specific warnings are given at the relevant places in this Guide.
1.3 System design and safety of
The drive is intended as a component for professional incorporation into complete equipment or system. If installed incorrectly, the drive may present a safety hazard.
The drive uses high voltages and currents, carries a high level of stored electrical energy, and is used to control equipment which can cause injury.
System design, installation, commissioning / start-up and maintenance must be carried out by personnel who have the necessary training and experience. They must read this safety information and this guide carefully.
The STOP and START controls or electrical inputs of the drive must not be relied upon to ensure safety of personnel. They do not isolate dangerous voltages from the output of the drive or from any external option unit. The supply must be disconnected by an approved electrical isolation device before gaining access to the electrical connections.
The drive is not intended to be used for safety-related functions.
Careful consideration must be given to the function of the drive which might result in a hazard, either through its intended behaviour or through incorrect operation due to a fault. In any application where a malfunction of the drive or its control system could lead to or allow damage, loss or injury, a risk analysis must be carried out, and where necessary, further measures taken to reduce the risk - for example, an over-speed protection device in case of failure of the speed control, or a fail-safe mechanical brake in case of loss of motor braking.
personnel

1.4 Environmental limits

Instructions within the supplied data and information within the Mentor MP User Guide regarding transport, storage, installation and the use of
the drive must be complied with, including the specified environmental limits. Drives must not be subjected to excessive physical force.

1.5 Access

Access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety regulations which apply at the place of use must be complied with.

1.6 Fire protection

The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire enclosure must be provided.

1.7 Compliance with regulations

The installer is responsible for complying with all relevant regulations, such as national wiring regulations, accident prevention regulations and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulations. Particular attention must be given to the cross-sectional areas of conductors, the selection of fuses and other protection, and protective ground (earth) connections.
The Mentor MP User Guide contains instructions for achieving compliance with specific EMC standards.
Within the European Union, all machinery in which this product is used must comply with the following directives:
2006/42/EC: Safety of machinery
2004/108/EC: Electromagnetic compatibility

1.8 Motor

Ensure the motor is installed in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Ensure the motor shaft is not exposed.
Low speeds may cause the motor to overheat because the cooling fan becomes less effective. The motor should be installed with a protection thermistor. If necessary, an electric forced ventilation fan should be used.
The values of the motor parameters set in the drive affect the protection of the motor. The default values in the drive should not be relied upon.
It is essential that the correct value is entered into Pr 5.07 (SE07, 0.28), Motor rated current. This affects the thermal protection of the motor.

1.9 Adjusting parameters

Some parameters have a profound effect on the operation of the drive. They must not be altered without careful consideration of the impact on the controlled system. Measures must be taken to prevent unwanted changes due to error or tampering.

1.10 Electrical installation

1.10.1 Electric shock risk

The voltages present in the following locations can cause severe electric shock and may be lethal:
AC supply cables and connections
Output cables and connections
Many internal parts of the drive, and external option units
Unless otherwise indicated, control terminals are single insulated and must not be touched.

1.10.2 Stored charge

The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the AC supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.

3 Mechanical Installation

3.1 Safety

Follow the instructions
The mechanical and electrical installation instructions must be adhered to. Any questions or doubt should be referred to the supplier of the equipment. It is the responsibility of the owner or user to ensure that the installation of the drive and any external option unit, and the way in which they are operated and maintained, comply with the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act in the United Kingdom or applicable legislation and regulations and codes of practice in the country in which the equipment is used.
Competence of the installer
The drive must be installed by professional assemblers who are familiar with the requirements for safety and EMC. The assembler is responsible for ensuring that the end product or system complies with all the relevant laws in the country where it is to be used.
If the drive has been used at high load levels for a period of time, the heatsink can reach temperatures in excess of 70°C (158°F). Human contact with the heatsink should be prevented.
Enclosure
The drive is intended to be mounted in an enclosure which prevents access except by trained and authorized personnel, and which prevents the ingress of contamination. It is designed for use in an environment classified as pollution degree 2 in accordance with IEC 60664-1. This means that only dry, non-conducting contamination is acceptable.

3.2.3 Cooling

The heat produced by the drive must be removed without its specified operating temperature being exceeded. Note that a sealed enclosure gives much reduced cooling compared with a ventilated one, and may need to be larger and/or use internal air circulating fans.
For further information, refer to section 3.6.2 Enclosure sizing on page 26.

3.2.4 Electrical safety

The installation must be safe under normal and fault conditions. Electrical installation instructions are given in Chapter 4 Electrical installation on page 32.

3.2.5 Electromagnetic compatibility

If it is necessary to meet strict emission limits, or if it is known that electromagnetically sensitive equipment is located nearby, then full precautions must be observed. The use of an external EMC filter may be required at the drive inputs, which must be located very close to the drives.
Space must be made available for the filters and allowance made for carefully segregated wiring. Both levels of precautions are covered in Table 12-42 Drive power stage terminals on size 2 drives on page 164.

3.2.6 Hazardous areas

The drive must not be located in a classified hazardous area unless it is installed in an approved enclosure and the installation is certified.
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire enclosure must be provided.
Many of the drives in this product range weigh in excess of 15kg (33lb). Use appropriate safeguards when lifting these models. See section 3.4 Mounting method on page 17.

3.2 Planning the installation

The following considerations must be made when planning the installation:

3.2.1 Access

Access must be restricted to personnel only. Safety regulations which apply at the place of use must be complied with.

3.2.2 Environmental protection

The drive must be protected from:
moisture, including dripping water or spraying water and condensation. An anti-condensation heater may be required, which must be switched off when the drive is running
contamination with electrically conductive material
contamination with any form of dust which may restrict the fan, or impair airflow over various components
temperature beyond the specified operating and storage ranges
corrosive gasses

3.3 Terminal cover removal

Isolation device The AC supply must be disconnected from the drive using an approved isolation device before any cover is removed from the drive or before any servicing work is performed.
Stored charge The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the AC supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.

3.3.1 Removing the terminal covers

The drive is installed with one control terminal cover.

Refer to section 12.1.2 Typical short-term overload limits on page 145 for drive losses.
Add the dissipation figures for each drive that is to be installed in the enclosure.
Add the power dissipation figures for each EMC filter that is to be installed in the enclosure.
Calculate the total heat dissipation (in Watts) of any other equipment to be installed in the enclosure.
Add the figures of all of the above to get a total heat dissipation figure (in Watts) for the equipment in the enclosure.
Calculating the size of a sealed enclosure
The enclosure transfers internally generated heat into the surrounding air by natural convection. The larger the surface area of the enclosure walls, the better is the dissipation capability. Only the surfaces of the enclosure that are not in contact with a wall or floor can dissipate heat.

4.3 AC supply requirements

The standard drive is rated for a nominal supply voltage up to 480Vrms.
An optional rating of 575Vrms is available for size 1 drives.
An optional rating of 575Vrms and 690Vrms is available for size 2 drives.
Grounded delta supplies exceeding 575V are not permitted for drives up to and including 210A. Grounded delta supplies exceeding 600V are not permitted for drives rated 350A and above.

4.3.1 Supply types

Drives rated for supply voltages of up to 575V (rated up to 210A) and 600V (350A and above), are suitable for use with any supply type i.e. TN-S, TN-C-S, TT, IT with grounding at any potential i.e neutral, centre or corner (“Grounded delta”).
Grounded delta supplies >575V are not permitted for drives rated up to and including 210A. Grounded delta supplies >600V are not permitted for drives rated 350A and above.

4.3.2 Supply fault current

The maximum fault current level of the supply to all circuits is 100kA subject to the capability of the semiconductor fuse fitted.

4.3.3 MOV ground disconnect

The facility for disconnecting the jumper (link) between varistors and ground is provided for special circumstances, where a sustained high voltage may be present between lines and ground, for example during a high potential test or in certain situations with IT supplies and multiple generators. If the jumper (link) is disconnected then the immunity of the drive to high voltage impulses is reduced. It is then only suitable for use with supplies having overvoltage category II, i.e. not for connection at the origin of the low voltage supply within a building.

4.4 Line reactors

The Mentor MP, in common with all naturally commutated thyristor drives, causes voltage notches at the input supply terminals. In order to avoid disturbance to other equipment using the same supply, the addition of external line inductance is strongly recommended in order to restrict the depth of the notches imposed on the shared supply. This is generally not necessary where a dedicated transformer is used to supply the drive.
The following recommendations for added line inductance, have been calculated based on the power drive systems standard: EN 61800­3:2004 “Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems – Part 3: EMC requirements and specific test methods”.
The current ratings specified in Table 4-2 are for typical motor currents where the motor current ripple is no more than 50% of drive rating.

It can be used as a back-up power supply to keep the control circuits of the drive powered up when the line power supply is removed. This allows any fieldbus modules, application modules, encoders or serial communications to continue to operate.
It can be used to commission the drive when the line power supply is not available, as the display operates correctly. However, the drive will be in the UV trip state unless the line power supply is enabled, therefore diagnostics may not be possible. (Power down save parameters are not saved when using the 24V back-up power supply input.)

In applications where the motor used is of a reduced rating, the cable sizing selected can be appropriate for that motor. To protect the motor and the output cabling the drive must be programmed with the correct motor rated current.
When using reduced cable sizes, the branch circuit protection fuse rating needs to be reduced in line with the cable size selected.
The following table shows typical cable sizes based on USA and International standards, assuming 3 conductors per raceway/conduit, an ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F) and applications with high output current ripple content.

4.6.3 Internal field fuses

The internal field fuses provide protection to the field controller. The fuses can rupture if there is a fault in the field circuit. The user should check the internal field fuses if the drive is tripping field loss (FdL) and the field controller is enabled.
Isolate the power before removing the internal field fuses.

4.7 External suppressor resistor

The Mentor MP range of drives provide internal suppression of the voltage overshoots created by commutation of the thyristors in the power stage during the operation of the product. The internal suppression is suitable for typical applications using recommended line reactors as defined in section 4.4 Line reactors on page 37. The Mentor MP drives provide the facility to allow for extra suppression for applications at the boundaries of the drive's operating area. Applications which may require an external suppression resistor to be installed have some or all the following characteristics:
1. Supplies rated 10kA with less than the recommend line reactance.
2. High line-to-line voltage
The recommended external suppressor resistor selections are shown in Table 4-18.

Shielded cable should be used for bucket suppressor connections. For UL applications the cable should comply with UL1063 in accordance with UL508a.
For applications where the external suppressor resistance is chosen to be less than the recommended value for reasons of economy, it is essential that the resistance is not less than the minimum resistance shown in Table 4-19. However selecting a resistance less than the recommended value requires a more complex installation. The power rating of the resistor can be selected by the user according to the dissipation required for the application, up to a maximum of the values specified in Table 4-19.

Overload Protection When using an external suppressor resistor of a resistance or power rating less than the recommended rating, it is essential that an overload protection device is incorporated in the resistor circuit (refer to Figure 4-13).
External suppressor resistor protection parameter settings The software provided by the Mentor MP provides overload protection. Failure to correctly configure Pr 11.62, Pr 11 .63 and Pr 11.6 4, as described in the Mentor MP Advanced User Guide could lead to the resistor being overloaded.

4.8 Ground leakage

The ground leakage current depends on whether an external EMC filter
Ω
is installed. Ground leakage currents for external EMC filters can be obtained from the manufacturers data sheet for the filter being used.
With no external EMC filter:
<1mA

4.8.1 Use of residual current device (RCD)

There are three common types of ELCB / RCD:
1. AC - detects AC fault currents
2. A - detects AC and pulsating DC fault currents (provided the DC current reaches zero at least once every half cycle)
3. B - detects AC, pulsating DC and smooth DC fault currents
Type’s A and AC should never be used with Mentor MP drives.
Type B must be used with all Mentor MP drives.
Only type B ELCB / RCD are suitable for use with Mentor
If an external EMC filter is used, a delay of at least 50ms should be incorporated to ensure spurious trips are not seen. The leakage current is likely to exceed the trip level if all of the phases are not energized simultaneously.
The installer of the drive is responsible for ensuring compliance with the EMC regulations that apply where the drive is to be used.
MP drives.

4.9 EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility)

The Mentor MP meets immunity requirements (specified in Table 12­43 Immunity compliance on page 164) with no special precautions.
N
Some special measures may be required in certain applications where the control cables are long or pass outside the building. See section
4.9.4 Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and connections
outside a building on page 47.
Radio frequency noise emission can occur from any of the power connections i.e. main and auxiliary A.C connections, armature and field output terminals.
For many applications in heavy industrial environments the noise emission is not sufficient to cause interference to other equipment.
When radio frequency emission must be limited the method used should be chosen to suit the situation.

4.9.1 Power drive systems standard

Compliance with the EMC standard for power drive systems (PDS) IEC 61800-3, EN 61800-3:2004 category C3
To meet this standard a standard armature filter and a standard field filter must be installed. See Table 4-20 Mentor MP and EMC filter cross references on page 47 for EMC filter cross references.
Shielded cables must be used for the field and armature and the shields must be clamped to ground at both ends. The standard is met for cable lengths up to 100m.

4.9.2 Generic standard and PDS category C2

Compliance with the generic emission standards for industrial environments category IEC 61000-6-4 and EN 61000-6-4:2007, and the PDS standard category C2.
To meet this standard a standard field filter and a high performance armature filter must be installed. See Table 4-20 Mentor MP and EMC filter cross references on page 47 for EMC filter cross references.
Shielded cables must be used for the field and armature and the shields must be clamped to ground at both ends. The standard is met for cable lengths up to 100m.

Refer to Figure 4-1 on page 33 for the location of the optional EMC filter. See Table 4-20 for EMC filters that can be sourced directly from Epcos and Schaffner.
It is essential that line reactors be connected between the filter terminals and the power input terminals, as shown in Figure 4-1. Failure to observe this requirement could result in destruction of the thyristors.

also includes establishments directly connected without intermediate transformers to a low-voltage power supply network which supplies buildings used for residential purposes.
The second environment is one that includes all establishments
other than those directly connected to a low-voltage power supply network which supplies buildings used for residential purposes.
Restricted distribution is defined as a mode of sales distribution in
which the manufacturer restricts the supply of equipment to suppliers, customers or users who separately or jointly have technical competence in the EMC requirements of the application of drives.
4.9.4 Surge immunity of control circuits - long
cables and connections outside a building
The input/output ports for the control circuits are designed for general use within machines and small systems without any special precautions.
In applications where they may be exposed to high-energy voltage surges, some special measures may be required to prevent malfunction or damage. Surges may be caused by lightning or severe power faults in association with grounding arrangements which permit high transient voltages between nominally grounded points. This is a particular risk where the circuits extend outside the protection of a building.
As a general rule, if the circuits are to pass outside the building where the drive is located, or if cable runs within a building exceed 30m, some additional precautions are advisable. One of the following techniques should be used:
1. Galvanic isolation, i.e. do not connect the control 0V terminal to
This is a product of the restricted distribution class according to IEC 61800-3. In a residential environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

The communications port applies a two-unit load to the communications network. Connectors 2, 3, 7 and shield must always be made to the serial communications port. Shielded cable must be used at all times.

4.10.1 Isolation of the serial communications port

The serial PC communications port is double insulated and meets the requirements for SELV in EN 50178:1998.
In order to meet the requirements for SELV in IEC 60950 (IT equipment) it is necessary for the control computer to be grounded. Alternatively, when a lap-top or similar device is used which has no provision for grounding, an isolation device must be incorporated in the communications lead.
An isolated serial communications lead has been designed to connect the drive to IT equipment (such as lap-top computers), and is available from the supplier of the drive. See Table 4-23 for details.
Table 4-23 Isolated serial comms lead details
Part number Description
Surge suppression devices are available as rail-mounting modules, e.g. from Phoenix Contact:
Unipolar TT-UKK5-D/24 DC Bipolar TT-UKK5-D/24 AC
These devices are not suitable for encoder signals or fast digital data networks because the capacitance of the diodes adversely affects the signal. Most encoders have galvanic isolation of the signal circuit from the motor frame, in which case no precautions are required. For data networks, follow the specific recommendations for the particular network.

4.10 Serial communications connections

The Mentor MP has a serial communications port (serial port) as standard supporting two wire EIA(RS)-485 communications. See Table 4-22 for the connection details for the RJ45 connector.
Figure 4-16 Serial communications port
The “isolated serial communications” lead has reinforced insulation as defined in IEC 60950 for altitudes up to 3,000m.
When using the CT EIA232 Comms cable the available baud rate is limited to 19.2k baud.

4.10.2 Multi-drop network

The drive can be used on a 2 wire EIA485 multi-drop network using the drive's serial communications port when the following guidelines are adhered to.
Connections
The network should be a daisy chain arrangement and not a star, although short stubs to the drive are allowed.
The minimum connections are pins 2 (RX TX), 3 (isolated 0V), 7 (RX\
4500-0087 CT EIA232 Comms cable
4500-0096 CT USB Comms cable
N
TX\) and the shield.
Pin 4 (+24V) on each drive can be connected together but there is no power sharing mechanism between drives and therefore the maximum power available is the same as a single drive. (If pin 4 is not linked to the other drives on the network and has an individual load then the maximum power can be taken from pin 4 of each drive.)
Termination resistors
If a drive is on the end of the network chain then pins 1 and 8 should be linked together. This will connect an internal 120Ω termination resistor between RXTX and RX\TX\. (If the end unit is not a drive or the user wishes to use their own termination resistor, a 120Ω termination resistor should be connected between RXTX and RX\TX\ at the end unit.)
If the host is connected to a single drive then termination resistors should not be used unless the baud rate is high.
CT Comms cable
The CT Comms cable can be used on a multi-drop network but should only be used occasionally for diagnostic and set up purposes. The

If the CT Comms cable is to be used, then pin 6 (TX enable) should be connected on all drives and pin 4 (+24V) should be linked to at least 1 drive to supply power to the converter in the cable.
Only one CT Comms cable can be used on a network.

4.11 Shield connections

These instructions must be followed to ensure suppression of radio­frequency emission and good noise immunity in the encoder circuit. It is recommended that the instructions for the connection of the encoder cable be followed closely and, to use the grounding bracket and grounding clamp supplied with the drive, to terminate the shields at the drive.

4.11.1 Motor cables

Use of a motor cable with an overall shield for the armature and field circuits may be needed if there is a critical EMC emissions requirement. Connect the shield of the motor cable to the ground terminal of the motor frame using a jumper (link) that is as short as possible and not exceeding 50mm (2in) long. A full 360° termination of the shield to the terminal housing of the motor is beneficial.

4.11.2 Encoder cable

To get the best results from shielding use cable with an overall shield and separate shields on individual twisted pairs. Refer to section
4.15 Connecting an encoder on page 54.

4.11.3 Control cables

It is recommended that signal cables should be shielded. This is essential for encoder cables, and strongly recommended for analog signal cables. For digital signals it is not necessary to use shielded cables within a panel, but this is recommended for external circuits, especially for inputs where a momentary signal causes a change of state (i.e. latching inputs).

4.11.4 Grounding hardware

The drive is supplied with a grounding bracket, to facilitate EMC compliance. This provides a convenient method for direct grounding of cable shields without the use of "pig-tails". Cable shields can be bared and clamped to the grounding bracket using metal clips, clamps or cable ties. Note that the shield must in all cases be continued through the clamp to the intended drive terminal in accordance with the connection details for the specific signal.

4.12 Connecting the fan on size 2C and 2D drives

A supply needs to be connected to the dual fan unit enclosed within the lower duct on Mentor MP size 2C and 2D. The fans can be configured for a 230Vac (factory setting) or 115Vac supply as shown below on the label next to the fan connections. When connecting the fan supply, the screws should be tightened with a maximum torque of 1.2 Nm (0.88 Ib ft) to 2 Nm (1.47 Ib ft).

If the control circuits are to be connected to other circuits classified as Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) (e.g. to a personal computer), an additional isolating barrier must be included in order to maintain the SELV classification.
If any of the digital inputs (including the drive enable input) are connected in parallel with an inductive load (i.e. contactor or motor brake) then suitable suppression (i.e. diode or varistor) should be used on the coil of the load. If no suppression is used then over voltage spikes can cause damage to the digital inputs on the drive.

4.15 Connecting an encoder

Additional measures to prevent unwanted emission of radio frequency noise are only required where the installation is subject to specific requirements for radio frequency emission.
Encoder connections:
To ensure suppression of radio frequency emission, observe the following:
Use an encoder with the correct impedance
Use a cable with individually shielded twisted pairs.
Connect the cable shields to 0V at both the drive and the encoder, using the shortest possible links (pig-tails).
The cable should not be interrupted. If interruptions are unavoidable, ensure the absolute minimum length of "pig-tail" in the shield connections at each interruption. Use a connection method that provides substantial metallic clamps for the cable shield terminations.
The above applies where the encoder body is isolated from the motor and where the encoder circuit is isolated from the encoder body. Where there is no isolation between the encoder circuits and motor body, and in case of doubt, the following additional requirements must be observed to give the best possible noise immunity.
The shields must be directly clamped to the encoder and to the drives grounding bracket. This may be achieved by clamping of the individual shields or by providing an additional overall shield that is clamped.
The recommendations of the encoder manufacturer should also be adhered to for the encoder connections.
In order to guarantee maximum noise immunity for any application double shielded cable as shown should be used.
In some cases single shielding of each pair of differential signals cables, or a single overall shield with individual shield on the thermistor connections is sufficient. In these cases all the shields should be connected to ground and 0V at both ends.
If the 0V is required to be left floating a cable with individual shields and an overall shield must be used.
Figure 4-21 and Figure 4-22 illustrate the preferred construction of cable and the method of clamping. The outer sheath of the cable should be stripped back enough to allow the clamp to be installed. The shield must not be broken or opened at this point. The clamps should be installed close to the drive or feedback device, with the ground connections made to a ground plate or similar metallic ground surface.

5 Getting started

This chapter introduces the user interfaces, menu structure and security level of the drive.

5.1 Understanding the display

There are two types of keypad available for the Mentor MP. The SM-Keypad has an LED display, and the MP-Keypad has an LCD display.

5.1.1 SM-Keypad (LED)

The display consists of two horizontal rows of 7 segment LED displays.
The upper display shows the drive status or the current menu and parameter number being viewed.
The lower display shows the parameter value or the specific trip type.
Figure 5-1 SM-Keypad Figure 5-2 MP-Keypad
The red stop button is also used to reset the drive.

5.1.2 MP-Keypad (LCD)

The display consists of three lines of text.
The top line shows the drive status or the current menu and parameter number being viewed on the left, and the parameter value or the specific trip type on the right.
The lower two lines show the parameter name or the help text.
UL
information

5.2 Keypad operation

Control buttons
The keypad consists of:
1. Joypad - used to navigate the parameter structure and change parameter values.
2. Mode button - used to change between the display modes – parameter view, parameter edit, status.
3. Three control buttons - used to control the drive if keypad mode is selected.
4. Help button (MP-Keypad only) - displays text briefly describing the selected parameter.
The Help button toggles between other display modes and parameter help mode. The up and down functions on the joypad scroll the help text to allow the whole string to be viewed. The right and left functions on the joypad have no function when help text is being viewed.
The display examples in this section show the SM-Keypad, seven segment, LED display. The examples are the same for the MP-Keypad, The exceptions is that the information displayed on the lower row on the SM-Keypad is displayed on the right hand side of the top row on the MP­Keypad.

When changing the values of parameters, make a note of the new values in case they need to be entered again.
For new parameter-values to apply after the AC supply to the drive is interrupted, new values must be saved (section 5.8 Saving parameters on page 61).
* Can only be used to move between menus if L2 access has been enabled Pr 11 .44 (SE14, 0.35) **Time-out defined by Pr 11.4 1 (default value = 240s).
Do not change parameter values without careful consideration; incorrect values may cause damage or a safety hazard.

5.3 Menu 0 (sub block)

Menu 0 can be accessed by 2 methods:
1. Pr 11.4 4 (SE14, 0.35) = 0. Sub block mode.
2. Pr 11.4 4 (SE14, 0.35) <>0. Linear mode.
Menu 23 contains the parameters to allow menu 0 to be customized in sub block mode. The first sub block is a user defined area (USEr) which is configured by the parameters in menu 22. As default there are no parameters configured to the user sub block and so it is empty. The next 7 sub blocks are pre-defined. Access to the pre-defined blocks is enabled or disabled by Pr 23.03 to Pr 23.09.
Movement between sub blocks is achieved with the left and right keys.
Pr 23.01 contains all the sub block headers.
Table 5-1 and Figure 5-5 show the result of the direction keys when Pr 11.44 (SE14, 0.35) is set to L1 (0). When Pr 11.4 4 (SE14, 0.35)is not 0 the left and right keys will allow access to the advance parameter set and menu 0 will become a linear menu.

Parameter
When moving to the user block header, the user block header is only displayed if there are some valid parameters in the block. When moving between pre-defined header blocks the pre-defined header block is only displayed if the pre-defined block is enabled.
When moving between parameters within a block, only valid parameters are displayed.

Coding
The coding defines the attributes of the parameter as follows.
Coding Attribute
{X.XX} Copied Mneu 0 or advanced parameter
Bit 1 bit parameter: ‘On’ or ‘OFF’ on the display
Bi Bipolar parameter
Uni Unipolar parameter
Txt Text: the parameter uses text strings instead of numbers.
SP Spare: not used
Filtered: some parameters which can have rapidly changing
FI
values are filtered when displayed on the drive keypad for easy viewing.
Destination pointer parameter: This parameter can be used
DE
to set up the location (i.e. menu/parameter number) where the destination data is to be routed.
Variable maximum: the maximum of this parameter can
VM
vary.
Decimal place: indicates the number of decimal places used
DP
by this parameter.
No default: when defaults are loaded (except when the drive
ND
is manufactured or on EEPROM failure) this parameter is not modified.
Rating dependant: this parameter is likely to have different values and ranges with drives of different voltage and current ratings. Parameters with this attribute will not be transferred to the destination drive by a SMARTCARD when the rating of the destination drive is different from the source
RA
drive if the drive voltage ratings are different or the file is a parameter file. However, the value will be transferred if only the current rating is different and the file is a differences from default type file.
Not copied: not transferred to or from SMARTCARD during
NC
copying.
NV Not visible: not visible on the keypad.
PT Protected: cannot be used as a destination.
User save: saved in drive EEPROM when the user initiates
US
a parameter save.
RW Read/write: can be written by the user.
RO Read only: can only be read by the user
Bit default one/unsigned: Bit parameters with this flag set to one have a default of one (all other bit parameters have a
BU
default of zero. Non-bit parameters are unipolar if this flag is one.
Power-down save: parameter automatically saved in drive EEPROM when the under volts (UV) trip occurs. Power-
PS
down save parameters are also saved in the drive when the user initiates a parameter save.

5.6 Menu structure

The drive parameter structure consists of menus and parameters.
The drive initially powers up in sub menu mode. Once Level 2 access (L2) has been enabled (refer to Pr 11.44 (SE14, 0.35)) the left and right buttons are used to navigate between numbered menus.
For further information, refer to section 5.13 Parameter access level and security on page 62.
Figure 5-7 Menu structure
The menus and parameters roll over in both directions.
For example:
If the last parameter is displayed, a further press will cause the display to roll-over and show the first parameter.
When changing between menus the drive remembers which parameter was last viewed in a particular menu and will display that parameter. The menus and parameters roll over in both directions.

5.5 Menu 0 (linear)

Menu 0 is used to bring together various commonly used parameters for basic easy set up of the drive.
Appropriate parameters are copied from the advanced menus into menu 0 and thus exist in both locations.
For further information, refer to section 5.3 Menu 0 (sub block) on page 58.

5.8 Saving parameters

When changing a parameter in Menu 0, the new value is saved when
pressing the Mode button to return to parameter view mode from parameter edit mode.
If parameters have been changed in the advanced menus, then the change will not be saved automatically. A save function must be carried out.
Procedure
1. Enter SAVE in Pr xx.00
2. Either:
Press the red reset button
Toggle the reset digital input, or
Carry out a drive reset through serial communications by setting Pr 10.38 to 100 (ensure that Pr xx.00 returns to 0).

5.9 Restoring parameter defaults

Restoring parameter defaults by this method saves the default values in the drive’s memory. (Pr 11.44 (SE14, 0.35) and Pr 11.30 are not affected by this procedure).
Procedure
1. Ensure the drive is not enabled, i.e. terminal 31 is open or Pr 6.15 is OFF (0)
2. Select Eur or USA in Pr xx.00.

Select dIS.dESt in Pr xx.00, the only parameters that will be visible to the user will be destination parameters. This function does not require a drive reset to become active. To deactivate this function, return to Pr xx.00 and enter a value of 0.
Please note that this function can be affected by the access level enabled You must refer to section 5.13 Parameter access level and security for further information regarding access levels.

5.13 Parameter access level and security

The parameter access levels determine whether the user has access to Menu 0 (in sub block mode) only or to all of the advanced menus (Menus 1 to 23), in addition to Menu 0 (in linear mode).
The user security determines whether the access to the user is read only or read write.
The user security and the parameter access level can operate independently of each other as shown in Table 5-5 .

www.controltechniques.com Issue: 4

5.13.2 Setting user security

Enter a value between 1 and 999 in Pr 11. 30 and press the button; the security code has now been set to this value. To activate the security, the access level must be set to Loc in Pr 11.44 (SE14, 0.35). When the drive is reset, the security code will have been activated and the drive returns to access level L1. The value of Pr 11.30 will return to 0 in order to hide the security code. At this point, the only parameter that can be changed by the user is the access level Pr 11.44 (SE14, 0.35).

5.13.3 Unlocking user security

Select a read write parameter to be edited and press the button; the upper display will now show CodE.
Use the arrow buttons to set the security code and press the button. With the correct security code entered, the display will revert to the parameter selected in edit mode. If an incorrect security code is entered the display will revert to parameter view mode.
To lock the user security again, set Pr 11. 44 (SE14, 0.35) to Loc and
press the reset button.

5.14 Serial communications

5.14.1 Introduction

The Mentor MP has a standard 2-wire EIA485 interface (serial communications interface) which enables all drive set-up, operation and monitoring to be carried out with a PC or controller if required. Therefore, it is possible to control the drive entirely by serial communications without the need for a keypad or other control cabling. The drive supports two protocols selected by parameter configuration:
Modbus RTU
CT ANSI Modbus RTU has been set as the default protocol, as it is used with the PC-tools commissioning/start-up software as provided on the CD ROM.
The serial communications port of the drive is a RJ45 socket, which is isolated from the power stage and the other control terminals (see section 4.10 Serial communications connections on page 48 for connection and isolation details).
The communications port applies a 2 unit load to the communications network.
USB/EIA232 to EIA485 Communications
An external USB/EIA232 hardware interface such as a PC cannot be used directly with the 2-wire EIA485 interface of the drive. Therefore a suitable converter is required.
Suitable USB to EIA485 and EIA232 to EIA485 isolated converters are available from Control Techniques as follows:
CT USB Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0096)
CT EIA232 Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0087)
When using one of the above converters or any other suitable converter with the Mentor MP, it is recommended that no terminating resistors be connected on the network. It may be necessary to 'link out' the terminating resistor within the converter depending on which type is used. The information on how to link out the terminating resistor will normally be contained in the user information supplied with the converter.

5.14.2 Serial communications set-up parameters

The following parameters need to be set according to the system requirements.

This parameter defines the communications protocol used by the 485 comms port on the drive. This parameter can be changed via the drive keypad, via a Solutions Module or via the comms interface itself. If it is changed via the comms interface, the response to the command uses the original protocol. The master should wait at least 20ms before sending a new message using the new protocol. (Note: ANSI uses 7 data bits, 1 stop bit and even parity; Modbus RTU uses 8 data bits, 2 stops bits and no parity.)

Used to define the unique address for the drive for the serial interface. The drive is always a slave.
ANSI
When the ANSI protocol is used the first digit is the group and the second digit is the address within a group. The maximum permitted group number is 9 and the maximum permitted address within a group is
9. Therefore, Pr 11. 23 (Si02, 0.67) is limited to 99 in this mode. The value 00 is used to globally address all slaves on the system, and x0 is used to address all slaves of group x, therefore these addresses should not be set in this parameter.
Modbus RTU
When the Modbus RTU protocol is used addresses between 0 and 247 are permitted. Address 0 is used to globally address all slaves, and so this address should not be set in this parameter.

6.1.2 Parameter x.00 reset

When an action is started by setting Pr x.00 to one of the above values and initiating a drive reset this parameter is cleared when the action is completed successfully. If the action is not started, e.g. because the drive is enabled and an attempt is made to load defaults, etc., Pr x.00 is not cleared and no trip is produced. If the action is started and then fails for some reason a trip is always produced and Pr x.00 is not cleared. It should be noted that parameter saves etc. can also be initiated with the copying parameter (Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30)). If actions that can be initiated by either parameter are started and then completed successfully Pr x.00 is cleared and Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is cleared if it has a value of less than 3.
It should be noted that there could be some conflict between the actions of Pr x.00 and Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) Parameter copying when the drive is reset. If Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) has a value of 1 or 2 and a valid action is required from the value of Pr x.00 then only the action required by Pr x.00 is performed. Pr x.00 and Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) are then reset to zero. If Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) has a value of 3 or 4 it will operate correctly causing parameters to be save to a SMARTCARD each time a parameter save is performed.

If this parameter is set to a non-zero value, the drive is enabled and a run command is applied in either direction the drive performs an auto­tune test. All tests that rotate the motor are carried out in the forward direction if di12 (Pr 0.47, 1.12) = 0 or the reverse direction if di12 (Pr 0.47, 1.12) = 1. For example, if the test is initiated by applying run reverse (Pr 6.32 = 1) the test is performed in the reverse direction. The test will not start unless the drive is disabled before the test is initiated by applying the enable or run, i.e. it will not start if the drive is in the stop state. It is not possible to go into the stop state if di12 (Pr 0.47, 1.12) has a non-zero value.
When the test is completed successfully the drive is disabled and will enter the inhibit state. The motor can only be restarted if the enable is removed either from the enable input, or Pr 6.15 is set to zero or from the control word (Pr 6.42) if it is active.

Motor constant (Pr 5.15) Continuous proportional gain (Pr 4.13) Continuous integral gain (Pr 4.14) Discontinuous integral gain (Pr 4.34) Back EMF set point (Pr 5.59) Armature resistance (Pr 5.61) Flux loop I gain (Pr 5.72)
Spinning autotune for motor saturation break points
When this operation is performed, the drive will estimate the following, with respect to the selected motor map, and store the values:
Motor saturation break points (Pr 5.29, Pr 5.30), by spinning the motor at 25% of it’s base speed (Pr 5.06)
Field current compensation factor (Pr 5.74)
Spinning autotune for inertia measurement
The drive can measure the total inertia of the load and motor. This is used to set the speed loop gains. See Pr 3.17 Speed controller setup method = 1 (bandwidth setup). During the inertia measurement test the
drive attempts to accelerate the motor to
3
/4 rated speed then back to a standstill. Several attempts may be made, starting with rated torque/16,
and then increasing the torque progressively to x
1
/8, x1/4, x1/2, and x 1
rated torque if the motor cannot be accelerated to the required speed. If the required speed is not achieved on the final attempt the test is aborted and a tuNE 1 trip is initiated. If the test is successful the acceleration and deceleration times are used to calculate the motor and load inertia and a value is written to Pr 3.18 Motor and load inertia.

The user may apply a filter to the speed controller input and the
drive encoder reference system input if required by setting Pr 3.42 to the required filter time. The encoder ripple seen by the speed controller is given by:
Encoder speed ripple = 60 / Filter time / (ELPR x 4)
If Pr 3.42 is set to zero (no filter) the ripple seen by the speed controller and drive encoder reference system is given by:

The speed feedback can be taken from the drive encoder port or tachometer or armature voltage or a position feedback module installed in any slot as selected with Fb01 (Pr 0.71, 3.26). di05 (Pr 0.40, 3.02) shows the level of the speed feedback selected for the speed controller. Display filtering is active when this parameter is viewed with one of the drive keypads. The value held in the drive parameter (accessible via comms or an option module) does not include this filter, but is a value that is obtained over a sliding 16ms period to limit the ripple seen in this parameter value. The speed feedback value includes encoder quantization ripple given by the following equation:
Ripple in di05 (Pr 0.40, 3.02) = 60 / 16ms / (ELPR x 4)
Where ELPR is the equivalent encoder lines per revolution as defined
overleaf:
Figure 6-1 shows the filter arrangement. It should be noted that the same filtering is provided at the speed controller input and for di05 (Pr 0.40, 3.02) when the feedback is obtained from an option module, but the variable length window filter is controlled by Pr x.19.
It is not advisable to set the speed feedback filter too high unless it is specifically required for high inertia applications with high controller gains because the filter has a non-linear transfer function. It is preferable to use the current demand filters (see Pr 4.12 or Pr 4.23) as these are linear first order filters that provide filtering on noise generated from both the speed reference and the speed feedback. It should be noted that any filtering included within the speed controller feedback loop, either on the speed feedback or the current demand, introduces a delay and limits the maximum bandwidth of the controller for stable operation.
The speed ripple can be quite high, for example with a 4096 line encoder the speed ripple is 14.6rpm, but this does not define the resolution of the speed feedback which is normally much better and depends on the length of the measuring period used to obtain the feedback. This is shown in the improved resolution of the value accessible in di05 (Pr
0.40, 3.02) which is measured over 16ms, i.e. a resolution of
0.23rpm with a 4096 line encoder. The speed controller itself accumulates all pulses from the encoder, and so the speed controller resolution is not limited by the feedback, but by the resolution of the speed reference. If a SINCOS encoder is used from an option the
encoder speed ripple is reduced by a factor of 2
(2-Interpolation bits)
. For example with the nominal 10 bits of interpolation information, the speed ripple is reduced by a factor of 256. This shows how a SINCOS encoder can reduce noise caused by encoder quantization without any filtering in the speed feedback or the current demand, so that high gains may be used to give high dynamic performance and a very stiff system.

Modbus RTU
When the Modbus RTU protocol is used addresses between 0 and 247 are permitted. Address 0 is used to globally address all slaves, and so this address should not be set in this parameter
ANSI
When the ANSI protocol is used the first digit is the group and the second digit is the address within a group. The maximum permitted group number is 9 and the maximum permitted address within a group is
9. Therefore, Si02 (Pr 0.67, 11.23) is limited to 99 in this mode. The value 00 is used to globally address all slaves on the system, and x0 is used to address all slaves of group x, therefore these addresses should not be set in this parameter.

7 Running the motor

This chapter takes the new user through all the essential steps to running a motor for the first time, in each of the possible operating modes.
Ensure that no damage or safety hazard could arise from the motor starting unexpectedly.
The values of the motor parameters affect the protection of the motor. The default values in the drive should not be relied upon. It is essential that the correct value is entered in Pr 5.07 (SE07, 0.28) Motor rated current. This affects the thermal protection of the motor.
If the keypad mode has been used previously, ensure that
the keypad reference has been set to 0 using the
buttons as if the drive is started using the keypad it will run to the speed defined by the keypad reference (Pr 1.17).
If the intended maximum speed affects the safety of the machinery, additional independent over-speed protection must be used.

8 Optimization

Before attempting to tune the drive the following data is required
Armature full load current
Armature voltage
Field current
Field voltage
Base speed
Maximum speed
In the following worked example the data below has been used
Armature full load current = 67A with an overload of 90A for up to 30 seconds
Armature voltage = 500V
Field current = 1.85A
Field voltage = 300V
Base speed = 1750 rpm
Maximum speed = 2500rpm

8.1 Armature current

Set the motor rated current in Pr 5.07 (SE07, 0.28) to 67A.
Set current limits in Pr 4.05 and Pr 4.06 to 90/67 x 100 = 134%
Set the motor thermal time constant in Pr 4.15 = -30 / ln(1 - (1.05 /

8.2 Speed feedback

8.2.1 Estimated speed feedback

For estimated speed feedback set Pr 3.26 (Fb01, 0.71) to ESt SPd. This uses an estimated speed feedback based on the motor back emf, motor rated speed, motor rated voltage, armature resistance, armature current and field flux feedback.

8.2.2 Tachometer speed feedback

For tachometer speed feedback set Pr 3.26 (Fb01, 0.71) to tACHO. Set the tachometer voltage rating in V/1000rpm in Pr 3.51 (Fb02, 0.72) and the tachometer input mode Pr 3.53 (Fb03, 0.73) to suit the type of tachometer used.

8.2.3 Encoder speed feedback

For encoder speed feedback set Pr 3.26 (Fb01, 0.71) to drv. Set the lines per revolution (Pr 3.34 (Fb05, 0.75)), encoder supply voltage (Pr 3.36 (Fb06, 0.76)) and encoder type (Pr 3.38 (Fb07, 0.77)).

8.2.4 Solutions Module speed feedback

If an Solutions Module is being used to provide speed feedback then Pr 3.26 (Fb01, 0.71) should be set to SLot1, SLot2, or SLot3.

8.3 Field current

The rated field current is set in Pr 5.70 (SE10, 0.31). When the field current equals the compensated rated field current (see Pr 5.74), 100% field flux is produced.

8.3.1 Field weakening with a speed feedback device

If field weakening is required the field compensation factor (Pr 5.74), the motor saturation breakpoints (Pr 5.29, Pr 5.30) and the voltage at which field weakening is required to begin (Pr 5.59) must be set.
Setting up the drive in field weakening is straightforward when a speed feedback device is available. The rotating autotune (Pr 5.12 (SE13,
0.34) = 2) automatically sets up the parameters above. Follow the quick
start commissioning / start-up (from European defaults) as shown in Table 6-1 on page 64 to set up the drive. Enable field weakening (Pr 5.64 = On). Save parameters.
For field weakening from USA defaults Pr 5.75 Field voltage mode should be set to OFF. Pr 5.28 Field weakening compensation disable should be set to OFF. Follow the quick start commissioning / start-up (from European defaults) as shown in Table 6-1 on page 64 to set up the drive. Enable field weakening (Pr 5.64 = On). Save parameters.

) = 31.5

8.3.2 Field weakening in estimated speed mode (no speed feedback device)

The Rotating Autotune (Pr 5.12 (SE13, 0.34) = 2) sets up the field controller for more accurate flux control and open loop speed accuracy. The rotating autotune needs to know the motor speed and so a speed feedback device has to be connected to the drive before a rotating autotune can be carried out. In some applications a speed feedback device may not be required and so the procedure below allows the user to manually adjust the field controller parameters to achieve better open loop speed control.
Follow the quick start commissioning / start-up (from European
defaults) as shown in Table 6-1 Pre-defined sub block parameters on page 64 until a static autotune (Pr 5.12 (SE13, 0.34) = 1) has been carried out.
•Set Pr 5.64 Field weakening enable to On.
Ensure that Pr 5.29 , Pr 5.30, Pr 5.68 and Pr 5.74 are set to their
default values of 50%, 75%, 100% and 100% respectively.
Set the speed demand to 1/4 of Base speed (Pr 5.08 (SE08, 0.29))
and run the machine up to speed and check the speed of the machine using a hand held device.
If the machine speed is lower than 1/4 of base speed (which is
normally the case) adjust the Field compensation factor (Pr 5.74) down until the correct machine speed is reached. If the machine
speed is higher than nameplate field current is low), adjust the rated field current (Pr 5.70
(SE10, 0.31)) up until the correct machine speed is reached.
•Set Pr 5.68 Maximum flux to 75% and measure the actual speed of
the machine (speed 75)
•Set Pr 5.68 Maximum flux to 50% and measure the actual speed of
the machine (speed 50).
Stop the machine and set Pr 5.68 Maximum flux back to 100%.
•Set Pr 5.29 Motor saturation breakpoint 1 = 50 x set speed / actual
speed (Speed 50)
•Set Pr 5.30 Motor saturation breakpoint 2 = 75 x set speed / actual
speed (speed 75).
Save parameters.
For field weakening from USA defaults Pr 5.75 Field voltage mode should be set to OFF. Pr 5.28 Field weakening compensation disable should be set to OFF. The procedure above should then be followed to set up the drive for field weakening.

8.3.3 Field economy

Field economy can be used to keep the field energized, at a low level of current (to prevent overheating), when the motor is not running to prevent condensation forming in the motor. The field economy level and the timeout can be adjusted.
To use this function it is necessary to set:
•Set Pr 5.65 to enable the field economy timeout
•Set Pr 5.67 to the percentage of full field that you want to use in
economy mode e.g 10%.
•Set Pr 5.66 to the time after the drive enable signal is removed to the
field current reducing to the economy level.

8.4 Current loop gains self-tuning

For optimum performance the current loop must be set-up. The dynamics of the current loop are principally a function of the electrical characteristics of a particular motor.
The drive determines the electrical characteristics of the motor by injecting current into the armature winding.

8.4.1 Static autotune for current loop gains

If Pr 5.12 (SE13, 0.34) is set to a 1, the drive is enabled and a run command is applied in either direction the drive performs a static autotune test. The test will not start unless the drive is disabled and before the test is initiated by applying the enable or run, i.e. it will not start unless the drive is in a stop state.

Information
When this operation is performed the drive will determine the Motor
constant (Pr 5.15), Continuous proportional gain (Pr 4.13), Continuous integral gain (Pr 4.14), Discontinuous integral gain (Pr 4.34), Back EMF set point (Pr 5.59), Armature resistance (Pr 5.60) and Flux loop I gain
(Pr 5.72) with respect to the selected motor map and store the values.

8.4.2 Continuous autotune for current loop gains

In the static autotune the armature current loop gains are set up with no flux in the motor. In some motors the inductance of the armature changes significantly when flux is present in the machine. If this is the case, a continuous autotune can be enabled to correct the gains for the fluxed machine.
When Pr 5.26 is set to On, the continuous autotune is enabled which continuously monitors the motor ripple and adjusts Motor constant (Pr 5.15), Continuous proportional gain (Pr 4.13) and Discontinuous integral gain (Pr 4.34) for optimum performance.
The static autotune should still be carried out because Continuous integral gain (Pr 4.14) is not set by the continuous autotune.
Calculation of the gains is suspended when the voltage field weakening loop becomes active so that the gains are not increased when the field is weakened (less flux in the machine).
This function does not operate when the drives are set-up in serial 12 pulse.

8.4.3 Drive commissioning output

The Mentor MP has a test pin that gives instantaneous armature current feedback. The pin is identified by a half sign wave symbol and is located to the right of the tachometer terminals. An oscilloscope probe can be attached to this pin to monitor the armature current.

8.5 Speed loop gains tuning

The speed loop gains control the response of the speed controller to a change in speed demand. The speed controller includes proportional (Kp) and integral (Ki) feed forward terms, and a differential (Kd) feedback term. The drive holds two sets of these gains and either set may be selected for use by the speed controller with Pr 3.16
Pr 3.16 may be changed when the drive is enabled or disabled.
If Pr 3.16 = 0 - gains Kp1, Ki1 and Kd1 are used
If Pr 3.16 = 1 - gains Kp2, Ki2 and Kd2 are used
8.5.1 Proportional gain (Kp) Pr 3.10 (SP01, 0.61) and
If Kp has a value and the integral gain Ki is set to zero the controller will only have a proportional term, and there must be a speed error to produce a torque reference. Therefore as the motor load increases there will be a difference between the reference and actual speeds.
This effect, called regulation, depends on the level of the proportional gain, the higher the gain the smaller the speed error for a given load.
If the proportional gain is too high either the acoustic noise produced by speed feedback quantization becomes unacceptable, or the stability limit is reached.
8.5.2 Integral gain (Ki) Pr 3.11 (SP02, 0.62) and
The integral gain is provided to prevent speed regulation. The error is accumulated over a period of time and used to produce the necessary torque demand without any speed error. Increasing the integral gain reduces the time taken for the speed to reach the correct level and increases the stiffness of the system, i.e. it reduces the positional displacement produced by applying a load torque to the motor. Unfortunately increasing the integral gain also reduces the system damping giving overshoot after a transient. For a given integral gain the damping can be improved by increasing the proportional gain. A compromise must be reached where the system response, stiffness and damping are all adequate for the application. The term is implemented in the form of the controller is active without causing large torque demand transients.

8.5.3 Differential gain (Kd) Pr 3.12 (SP03, 0.63) and Pr 3.15

The differential gain is provided in the feedback of the speed controller to give additional damping. The differential term is implemented in a way that does not introduce excessive noise normally associated with this type of function. Increasing the differential term reduces the overshoot produced by under-damping, however, for most applications the proportional and integral gains alone are sufficient.

8.5.4 Manually setting up the speed loop gains

Figure 8-1 Responses
There are two methods of tuning the speed loop gains dependant on the setting of Pr 3.17:
1. Pr 3.17 = 0, User set-up.
This involves the connecting of an oscilloscope to analog output 1 to monitor the speed feedback. Give the drive a step change in speed reference and monitor the response of the drive on the oscilloscope.
The proportional gain (Kp) should be set up initially. The value should be increased up to the point where the speed overshoots and then reduced slightly.
The integral gain (Ki) should then be increased up to the point where the speed becomes unstable and then reduced slightly.
It may now be possible to increase the proportional gain to a higher value and the process should be repeated until the system response matches the ideal response as shown.
Figure 8-1 shows the effect of incorrect P and I gain settings as well as the ideal response.
2. Pr 3.17 = 1, Bandwidth set-up
If bandwidth based set-up is required, the drive can calculate Kp and Ki if the following parameters are set up correctly:
Pr 3.18 - Motor and load inertia - it is possible to measure the load inertia as part of the auto-tuning process (see Pr 5.12 (SE13, 0.34)).
Pr 3.20 - Required bandwidth,
Pr 3.21 - Required damping factor,
Pr 5.32 - Motor torque per amp (Kt).

8.5.5 Speed loop gains for very high inertia

Pr 3.17 = 2 - Kp gain times 16
If this parameter is set to 2 the Kp gain (from whichever source), is multiplied by 16. This is intended to boost the range of Kp for applications with very high inertia. It should be noted that if high values of Kp are used it is likely that the speed controller output will need to be filtered, see (Pr 3.42). If the feedback is not filtered it is possible that the output of the speed controller will be a square wave that changes between the current limits causing the integral term saturation system to malfunction.

8.6 Current limit tapers

With some motors the commutation limit of the motor requires that the maximum armature current be reduced at higher speeds, the current limit tapers can be used to provide this speed dependent current limit.

9 SMARTCARD operation

9.1 Introduction

This is a standard feature that enables simple configuration of parameters in a variety of ways. The SMARTCARD can be used for:
Parameter copying between drives
Saving whole drive parameter sets
Saving ‘differences from default‘ parameter sets
Storing Onboard PLC programs
Automatically saving all user parameter changes for maintenance purposes
Loading complete motor map parameters.
Refer to Figure 9-1 for installing the SMARTCARD. Ensure the SMARTCARD is inserted with the MP arrow pointing upwards.
The drive only communicates with the SMARTCARD when commanded to read or write, this means that the card may be ‘hot swapped’.
Figure 9-1 Installation of the SMARTCARD

9.2 Easy saving and reading

The SMARTCARD has 999 individual data block locations. Each individual location from 1 to 499 can be used to store data.
The drive can support SMARTCARDS that have a capacity of between 4kB and 512kB.
The usage of the data block locations in the SMARTCARD are shown in Table 9-1.
Table 9-1 SMARTCARD data blocks
Data block Type Example of usage
1 to 499 Read / Write Application set-up
500 to 999 Read Only Macros
Parameter sets labelled as ‘Differences from default‘ will be much smaller than whole parameter sets. Therefore they use a lot less memory because most applications only require a few parameters to be changed from the default setting.
The whole card may be protected from writing or erasing by setting the read-only flag as shown in section 9.3.9 9888 / 9777 - Set / clear the SMARTCARD read only flag on page 83.

The card should not be removed during data transfer because the drive will trip. If a trip occurs you must either try to transfer the data again or, in the case of a card-to-drive transfer, the default parameters should be loaded.

9.3 Transferring data

When a code is entered into Pr xx.00 and the drive is subsequently reset, the drive will carry out the actions listed in Table 9-2.

Where yyy indicates the data block number 001 to 999, refer to Table 9­1 for restrictions on data block numbers.
If the read only flag is set then only codes 6yyy or 9777 are effective.

9.3.1 Writing to the SMARTCARD

3yyy - Transfer data to the SMARTCARD
The data block contains the complete parameter data from the drive, i.e. all user-save (US) parameters except parameters with the NC coding bit set. Power-down save (PS) parameters are not transferred to the SMARTCARD.
Transfer drive parameters as difference from default to SMARTCARD data block number 1.
Transfer drive parameters as difference from default to SMARTCARD data block number 2.
Transfer drive parameters as difference from default to SMARTCARD data block number 3.
Transfer drive parameters as difference from defaults to a bootable SMARTCARD data block with block number 1. This will clear data block 1 on the card if it already exists.
Transfer drive parameters to a SMARTCARD data block number yyy.
Transfer drive data as difference from defaults to SMARTCARD data block number yyy.
Transfer drive user program to SMARTCARD data block number yyy.
Transfer SMARTCARD data block 1 to the drive provided it is a parameter file.
Transfer drive parameters to a SMARTCARD data block number 1.
Transfer drive parameters to a SMARTCARD data block with data block number 1 provided.

4yyy - Write default differences to a SMARTCARD
The data block only contains the parameter differences from the last time default settings were loaded.
Six bytes are required for each parameter difference. The data density is not as high as when using the 3yyy transfer method as described in the section 3yyy - Transfer data to the SMARTCARD but in most cases the number of differences from default is small and the data blocks are therefore smaller. This method can be used for creating drive macros. PS parameters are not transferred to the SMARTCARD.
Writing a parameter set to the SMARTCARD
Setting Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) to Prog (2) and resetting the drive will save the parameters to the SMARTCARD, i.e. this is equivalent to writing 3001 to Pr xx.00. All SMARTCARD trips apply except 'C.Chg'. If the data block already exists it is automatically overwritten.
When the action is complete this parameter is automatically reset to nonE (0).

9.3.2 Reading from the SMARTCARD

6yyy - Read default differences from a SMARTCARD
When the data is transferred back to a drive, using 6yyy in Pr xx.00, it is transferred to the drive RAM and the drive EEPROM. A parameter save is not required to retain the data after power-down. Set-up data for any Solutions Modules installed are stored on the card and are transferred to the destination drive. If the Solutions Modules are different between the source and destination drive, the menus for the slots where the Solutions Module categories are different are not updated from the card and will contain their default values after the copying action.
The drive will produce a 'C.Optn' trip if the Solutions Modules installed to the source and destination drive are different or are in different slots. If the data is being transferred to a drive of a different voltage or current rating a 'C.rtg' trip will occur.
Table 9-3 lists the rating dependent parameters (RA coding bit set) that will not be written to the destination drive and will contain their default values after the copying action.
Table 9-3 Rating dependent parameters
Parameter Function
4.05 Current limit
4.06 Current limit
4.07 Current limit
4.24 User current maximum scaling
5.07 (SE07, 0.28) Motor rated current
5.09 (SE06, 0.27) Armature rated voltage
Reading a parameter set from the SMARTCARD
Setting Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) to rEAd (1) and resetting the drive will transfer the parameters from the card into the drive parameter set and the drive EEPROM, i.e. this is equivalent to writing 6001 to Pr xx.00. All SMARTCARD trips apply. Once the parameters are successfully copied this parameter is automatically reset to nonE (0). Parameters are saved to the drive EEPROM after this action is complete.
This operation is only performed if data block 1 on the card is a full parameter set (3yyy transfer) and not a default difference file (4yyy transfer). If data block 1 does not exist a 'C.dAt' trip occurs.

9.3.3 Auto saving parameter changes

This setting causes the drive to automatically save any changes made to Menu 0 parameters on the drive to the SMARTCARD. The latest Menu 0 parameter set in the drive is therefore always backed up on the SMARTCARD.
Changing Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) to Auto (3) and resetting the drive will immediately save the complete parameter set from the drive to the card, i.e. all User Save (US) parameters except parameters with the NC coding bit set. Once the whole parameter set is stored only the individual modified menu 0 parameter setting is updated.
Advanced parameter changes are only saved to the card when Pr xx.00 is set to a 1000 and the drive reset.

All SMARTCARD trips apply, except ‘C.Chg’. If the data block already contains information it is automatically overwritten.
If the card is removed when Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is set to 3, Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is then automatically set to nonE (0).
When a new SMARTCARD is installed Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) must be set back to Auto (3) by the user and the drive reset so the complete parameter set is rewritten to the new SMARTCARD if auto mode is still required.
When Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is set to Auto (3) and the parameters in the drive are saved, the SMARTCARD is also updated, therefore the SMARTCARD becomes a copy of the drives stored configuration.
At power up, if Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is set to Auto (3), the drive will save the complete parameter set to the SMARTCARD. The drive will display ‘cArd’ during this operation. This is done to ensure that if a user puts a new SMARTCARD in during power down the new SMARTCARD will have the correct data.
When Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is set to Auto (3) the setting of Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) itself is saved to the drive EEPROM but NOT to the SMARTCARD.

When Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is set to boot (4) the drive operates the same as Auto mode, except when the drive is powered up. The parameters on the SMARTCARD will be automatically transferred to the drive at power-up if the following are true:
A card is inserted in the drive
Parameter data block 1 exists on the card
The data in block 1 is type 1 to 5 (as defined in Pr 11.38)
•Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) on the card set to boot (4)
The drive will display 'boot' during this operation. If the drive mode is different from that on the card, the drive gives a 'C.Typ' trip and the data is not transferred.
If 'boot' mode is stored on the copying SMARTCARD this makes the copying SMARTCARD the master device. This provides a very fast and efficient way of re-programming a number of drives.
If data block 1 contains a bootable parameter set and data block 2 contains an Onboard PLC program (type 17 as defined in Pr 11 .38), then the onboard PLC program will be transferred to the drive at power up along with the parameter set in data block 1.
“Boot” mode is saved to the card, but when the card is read, the value of Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is not transferred to the drive.

9.3.5 Booting up from the SMARTCARD on every power up (Pr xx.00 = 2001)

It is possible to create a difference from default bootable file by setting Pr xx.00 to 2001 and resetting the drive. This type of file causes the drive to behave in the same way at power-up as a file created with boot mode set up with Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30). The difference from the default file is that it has the added advantage of including Menu 20 parameters.
Setting Pr xx.00 to 2001 will overwrite data block 1 on the card, if it already exists.
If a data block 2 exists and contains an Onboard PLC program (type 17 as defined in Pr 11. 38 ), this will also be loaded after the parameters have been transferred.
A bootable difference from default file can only be created in one operation and parameters cannot be added as they are saved via Menu
0.

9.3.6 Comparing drive full parameter set with the SMARTCARD values

Setting 8yyy in Pr xx.00, will compare the SMARTCARD file with the data in the drive:
If the compare is successful Pr xx.00 is simply set to 0
If the compare fails a ‘C.cpr’ trip is initiated

9.3.7 7yyy / 9999 - Erasing data from the SMARTCARD

Data can be erased from the SMARTCARD one data block at a time or with data blocks 1 to 499 in selected together.
Setting 7yyy in Pr xx.00 will erase SMARTCARD data block yyy
Setting 9999 in Pr xx.00 will erase SMARTCARD data blocks 1 to
499

9.3.8 9666 / 9555 - Set / clear SMARTCARD warning suppression flag

1. If the Solutions Module(s) installed to the source and destination
drive are different, or are in different slots, the drive will produce a 'C.Optn' trip.
2. If the data is being transferred to a drive of a different voltage or
current rating a 'C.rtg' trip will occur. It is possible to suppress these trips by setting the warning suppression flag. If this flag is set the drive will not trip if the Solutions Module(s) or drive ratings are different between the source and the destination drives. The Solutions Module or rating dependent parameters will not be transferred.
Setting 9666 in Pr xx.00 will set the warning suppression flag
Setting 9555 in Pr xx.00 will clear the warning suppression flag
9.3.9 9888 / 9777 - Set / clear the SMARTCARD read
only flag
The SMARTCARD may be protected from writing or erasing by setting the read only flag. If an attempt is made to write or erase a data block when the read only flag is set, a 'C.rdo' trip is initiated.
When the read only flag is set only codes 6yyy or 9777 are effective.
Setting 9888 in Pr xx.00 will set the read only flag
Setting 9777 in Pr xx.00 will clear the read only flag

9.4 Data block header information

Each data block stored on a SMARTCARD has header information detailing the following:
A number which identifies the data block (Pr 11.37)
Type of data stored in the data block (Pr 11.38)
Drive mode if the data is parameter data (Pr 11.38)
Version number (Pr 11.39)
Checksum (Pr 11.40)
Read-only flag
Warning suppression flag The header information for each data block that has been used can be viewed in Pr number set in Pr
If Pr 11. 37 is set to 1000: the checksum parameter (Pr 11.40) shows the number of bytes left on the card in 16 byte pages.
If Pr 11. 37 is set to 1001: the checksum parameter (Pr 11.40) shows the total capacity of the card in 16 byte pages. Therefore, for a 4kB card this parameter would show 254.
If Pr 11. 37 is set to 1002: the checksum parameter (Pr 11.40) shows the state of the read-only (bit 0) and warning suppression flags (bit 1).
If there is no data on the card: Pr 11. 37 can only have values of 0 or 1000 to 1002.

After an attempt to read, write or erase data to or from a SMARTCARD a trip may occur if there has been a problem with the command. Table 9-6 lists the trip indications and conditions that will cause the SMARTCARD to trip,
Table 9-6 Trip conditions
Trip Condition
C.boot
177
C.BUSy
178
C.Chg SMARTCARD trip: Data location already contains data
179 An attempt has been made to store data in a SMARTCARD data block that already exists.
C.Optn SMARTCARD trip: Solutions Modules installed are different between source drive and destination drive
180
C.Rdo SMARTCARD trip: SMARTCARD has the Read Only bit set
181
C.Err SMARTCARD trip: SMARTCARD data is corrupted
182
C.dat SMARTCARD trip: Data location specified does not contain any data
183
C.FULL SMARTCARD trip: SMARTCARD full
184 An attempt has been made to create a data block on a SMARTCARD, but there is not enough space on the card.
C.Acc SMARTCARD trip: SMARTCARD Read / Write fail
185
C.rtg SMARTCARD trip: The voltage and/or current rating of the source and destination drives are different
186
C.Typ SMARTCARD trip: SMARTCARD parameter set not compatible with drive
187
C.cpr SMARTCARD trip: The values stored in the drive and the values in the data block on the SMARTCARD are different
188
SMARTCARD trip: The menu 0 parameter modification cannot be saved to the SMARTCARD because the necessary file has not been created on the SMARTCARD
A write to a Menu 0 parameter has been initiated with the keypad by exiting edit mode and Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is set for auto or boot mode. However the necessary boot file has not been created on the SMARTCARD to take the new parameter value. This occurs when Pr 11.42 (SE09, 0.30) is changed to auto or boot mode, but the drive is not subsequently reset.
SMARTCARD trip: SMARTCARD can not perform the required function as it is being accessed by a Solutions Module
An attempt has been made to access a SMARTCARD. However an Solutions Module is already accessing the SMARTCARD.
Parameter data or default difference data is being transferred from a SMARTCARD to the drive, but the Solutions Module categories are different between source and destination drives. This trip does not stop the data transfer, but is a warning that the data for the Solutions Modules that are different will be set to the default values and not the values from the card. This trip also applies if a compare is attempted between the data block and the drive.
An attempt has been made to modify a read-only SMARTCARD (i.e. erase the card, erase a file or create a file). A SMARTCARD is read-only if the read-only flag has been set or the card contains data blocks with numbers from 500 to 999. Attempting to create data blocks with numbers from 500 to 999 will always cause a trip.
An attempt has been made to transfer a data block from a SMARTCARD to the drive or to compare a SMARTCARD data block and the checksum is incorrect or the data structure on the card is incorrect.
An attempt has been made to transfer a data block from a SMARTCARD to the drive or to compare a SMARTCARD data block and the block does not exist.
An attempt has been made to access a SMARTCARD, but a card is not present or communications failure has occurred between the drive and the card. This trip is also produced if an attempt is made to access a data block that has already been opened by an Solutions Module.
Parameter data or default difference data is being transferred from a SMARTCARD to the drive, but the current and /or voltage ratings are different between source and destination drives. This trip does not stop the data transfer, but is a warning that the data for the Solutions Modules that are different will be set to the default values and not the values from the card. This trip also applies if a compare is attempted between the data block and the drive.
This trip is produced during a compare if the drive mode in the data block is different from the current drive mode and the file is a parameter or defaults differences file. This trip is also produced if an attempt is made to transfer parameters from a parameter or default difference to the drive if the drive mode in the data block is outside the allowed range of drive modes for the drive.
A compare has been carried out between a data block on a SMARTCARD and the drive and the compare has failed. This trip only occurs if the compare has not already failed with the following trips: C.Typ, C.rtg, C.Optn, C.BUSy, C.Acc or C.Err.

10 Onboard PLC

10.1 Onboard PLC and SYPT Lite

The Mentor MP has the ability to store and execute a 6kB Onboard PLC ladder logic program without the need for additional hardware in the form of a Solutions Module.
The ladder logic program is written using SYPT Lite, a Windows™ based ladder diagram editor allowing the development of programs for execution in SM-Applications Plus.
Advantages of SYPT Lite:
SYPT Lite is designed to be easy to use and to make program development as simple as possible. The features provided are a sub-set of those in the SYPT program editor.
SYPT Lite programs are developed using ladder logic, a graphical language widely used to program PLCs (IEC 61131-3).
SYPT Lite allows the user to draw a ladder diagram representing a program.
SYPT Lite provides a complete environment for the development of ladder diagrams. Ladder diagrams can be created, compiled into user programs and downloaded to SM-Applications Plus for execution, via the RJ45 serial communications port on the front of the drive.
The run-time operation of the compiled ladder diagram on the target can also be monitored using SYPT Lite and facilities are provided to interact with the program on the target by setting new values for target parameters.
SYPT Lite is available on the CD that is supplied with the drive.

10.2 Benefits

The combination of the Onboard PLC and SYPT Lite means that Mentor MP can replace nano and some micro PLCs in many applications. The Onboard PLC programs can consist of up to a maximum of 50 ladder logic rungs (up to 7 function blocks and 10 contacts per rung). The Onboard PLC program can also be transferred to and from a SMARTCARD for backup or quick commissioning / start-up.
In addition to the basic ladder symbols, SYPT Lite contains a sub-set of the function from the full version of SYPT. These include:
Arithmetic blocks
Comparison blocks
•Timers
Counters
Multiplexers
•Latches
Bit manipulation
Typical applications for the Onboard PLC include,
Ancillary pumps
Fans and control valves
Interlocking logic
Sequences routines
Custom control words.

10.3 Limitations

Compared with the SM-Applications Plus or SM-Applications Lite V2 modules when programmed with SYPT, the Onboard PLC program has the following limitations:
The maximum program size is 6080 bytes including header and optional source code.
The Mentor MP is rated for 100 program downloads. This limitation is imposed by the flash memory used to store the program within the drive.
The user cannot create user variables. The user is only able to manipulate the drive parameter set.
The program cannot be downloaded or monitored over CTNet. The program is only accessible via the drives RJ45 serial communications port.

information
There are no real-time tasks, i.e. the scheduling rate of the program cannot be guaranteed. SM-Applications Plus tasks such as Clock, Event, Pos0 or Speed are not available.
The Onboard PLC should not be used for time-critical applications. For time-critical applications either the SM-Applications Plus or SM­Applications Lite V2 Solutions Modules should be used.
The program runs at a low priority. The Mentor MP provides a single background task in which to run a ladder diagram. The drive is prioritized to perform its major functions first, e.g. motor control, and will use any remaining processing time to execute the ladder diagram as a background activity. As the drive's processor becomes more heavily loaded, less time is spent executing the program.
Figure 10-1 Mentor MP Onboard PLC program scheduling
The user program is scheduled for a short period approximately once every 64ms. The time for which the program is scheduled will vary between 0.2ms and 2ms depending on the loading of the drive's processor.
When scheduled, several scans of the user program may be performed. Some scans may execute in microseconds. However, when the main drive functions are scheduled there will be a pause in the execution of the program causing some scans to take many milliseconds. SYPT Lite displays the average execution time calculated over the last 10 scans of the user program.
The Onboard PLC and SYPT Lite form the first level of functionality in a range of programmable options for Mentor MP.
SYPT Lite can be used with either the Onboard PLC or with SM­Applications Lite V2 to create ladder logic programs.
SYPT can be used with either the SM-Applications Lite V2 or SM­Applications Plus to create fully flexible programs using ladder logic, function blocks or DPL script.

10.7 Onboard PLC and the SMARTCARD

The Onboard PLC program in a drive may be transferred from the drive to a SMARTCARD and vice versa.
To transfer an Onboard PLC program from the drive to a SMARTCARD, set Pr xx.00 to 5yyy and reset the drive
To transfer an Onboard PLC program from the SMARTCARD to a drive, set Pr xx.00 to 6yyy and reset the drive.
(Where yyy is the data block location, see Table 9-1 SMARTCARD data blocks on page 81 for restrictions on block numbers).
If an attempt is made to transfer an Onboard PLC program from a drive to the SMARTCARD when the drive contains no program, the block is still created on the SMARTCARD but it will contain no data. If this data block is then transferred to a drive, the destination drive will then have no Onboard PLC program.
The smallest SMARTCARD compatible with Mentor MP has a capacity of 4064 bytes and each block can be up to 4064 bytes in size. The maximum size of a user program is 4032 bytes so it is guaranteed that any Onboard PLC program downloaded to a Mentor MP will fit on to an empty SMARTCARD. A SMARTCARD can contain a number of Onboard PLC programs until the capacity of the card is used.

Running the
motor
Parameter ranges and variable maximums:
The two values provided define the minimum and maximum values for the given parameter. In some cases the parameter range is variable and dependant on either:
other parameters
the drive rating
or a combination of these
The values given in Table 11-4 are the variable maximums used in the drive.
Table 11-4 Definition of parameter ranges & variable maximums
Maximum Definition
Maximum speed reference
MAX_SPEED_REF [10000.0rpm]
SPEED_LIMIT_MAX [10000.0rpm]
SPEED_MAX [10000.0rpm]
MAX_RAMP_RATE MAX_RAMP_RATE_M2 [3200.000]
RATED_CURRENT_MAX [9999.99A]
DRIVE_CURRENT_MAX [9999.99A]
MOTOR1_CURRENT_LIMIT_MAX [1000.0%]
MOTOR2_CURRENT_LIMIT_MAX [1000.0%]
TORQUE_PROD_CURRENT_MAX [1000.0%]
USER_CURRENT_MAX [1000.0%]
If Pr 1.08 = 0: MAX_SPEED_REF = Pr 1.06 (SE02, 0.23) If Pr 1.08 = 1: MAX_SPEED_REF is Pr 1.06 (SE02, 0.23) or – Pr 1.07 (SE01, 0.22) whichever is the largest (If the second motor map is selected Pr 21.01 is used instead of Pr 1.06 (SE02, 0.23) and Pr 21.02 instead of Pr 1.07 (SE01, 0.22))
Maximum applied to speed reference limits
A maximum limit may be applied to the speed reference to prevent the nominal encoder frequency from exceeding 500kHz. The maximum is defined by
SPEED_LIMIT_MAX (in rpm) = 500kHz x 60 / ELPR = 3.0 x 10 10,000 rpm. ELPR is equivalent encoder lines per revolution and is the number of lines that would be produced by a quadrature encoder. Quadrature encoder ELPR = number of lines per revolution F and D encoder ELPR = number of lines per revolution / 2 This maximum is defined by the device selected with the speed feedback selector (Pr 3.26 (Fb01, 0.71)) and the ELPR set for the position feedback device.
Maximum speed
This maximum is used for some speed related parameters in menu 3. To allow headroom for overshoot etc. the maximum speed is twice the maximum speed reference. SPEED_MAX = 2 x MAX_SPEED_REF
Maximum ramp rate
If (Pr 1.06 (SE02, 0.23) [Pr 21.01] >= 1000 and Pr 2.39 = 0) or Pr 2.39 >= 1000 then
MAX_RAMP_RATE = 3200.000
Else if Pr 2.39 = 0
MAX_RAMP_RATE = 3200 * Pr 1.06 (SE02, 0.23) [Pr 21.01] / 1000.0
Else
MAX_RAMP_RATE = 3200 * Pr 2.39 / 1000.0
End if
Maximum motor rated current
Maximum drive current
The maximum drive current is the current at the over current trip level and is given by: DRIVE_CURRENT_MAX = RATED_CURRENT_MAX x 2
Maximum current limit settings for motor map 1
This maximum current limit setting is the maximum applied to the current limit parameters in motor map 1. See introduction to Menu 4 for the definition.
Maximum current limit settings for motor map 2
This maximum current limit setting is the maximum applied to the current limit parameters in motor map 2. See introduction to Menu 4 for the definition.
Maximum torque producing current
This is used as a maximum for torque and torque producing current parameters. It is MOTOR1_CURRENT_LIMIT_MAX or MOTOR2_CURRENT_LIMIT_MAX depending on which motor map is currently active.
Current parameter limit selected by the user
The user can select a maximum for Pr 4.08 (torque reference) and Pr 4.20 (percentage load) to give suitable scaling for analog I/O with Pr 4.24. This maximum is subject to a limit of CURRENT_LIMIT_MAX. USER_CURRENT_MAX = Pr 4.24

480 +10% drive: 720 575 +10% drive: 860 690 +10% drive: 1025
For 4 quadrant drives maximum armature voltage = Vac x 1.15
Quadrant maximum
QUADRANT_MAX
0 for a 2 quadrant drive. 1 for a 4 quadrant drive.
Maximum power in kW
POWER_MAX [9999.99kW]
The maximum power has been chosen to allow for the maximum power that can be output by the drive with maximum DC output voltage and maximum controlled current. Therefore:
POWER_MAX = ARMATURE_VOLTAGE_MAX x DRIVE_CURRENT_MAX
The values given in square brackets indicate the absolute maximum value allowed for the variable maximum.
