Addendum: Spinning motor software
TwoissueshavebeenfoundduringlaboratorytestingofCommanderSErelating
to the use of spinning motor software,parameter33 (parameter 6.09 in
advancedparameters).
The firstissue appears both in open loop vectorcontrol (as default)and fixed
boost mode. A conditionoccurs whenthe Drive's software releases the motor
from spinningmotor control back to normal control. This issue is more
pronounced on Commander SE sizes 3 and 4 but is present to a lesser extent
on CommanderSEsizes 1 and 2. Itis notbelievedthatthisissuewillcause any
field problems.
The secondissue relates to the operation of the spinningmotor software while
infixedboostmode,parameter5.14 setto mode2. (Note that Fixed boostmode
can only be selected from the advanced parameters throughserial
communications). The problem occurs if the motorto be 'caught' is rotating in
the reversedirection. While attempting to 'catch' the motor, theDrive will tripon
OI.AC. If the motor to be 'caught' is rotating in the forward direction or at
standstill, thisproblem will not occur. Also, if the Drive is set up in open loop
vectormode (as default) this problem will not occur.

A
The voltages used in the Drive can cause severe electricalshock and/orburns, and
couldbe lethal. Extreme care is necessaryat alltimes when workingwithor adjacent
to the Drive.
Specific warnings are given at the relevant places in this User Guide.
The Driveis intendedas a componentfor professional incorporation into complete
equipmentor a system. Ifinstalledincorrectly,theDrivemaypresentasafetyhazard.
The Drive uses high voltage and currents, carries a high level of stored electrical
energy,and is used to control equipment which can cause injury.
Close attention is required to the electrical installation andthe system designto avoid
hazards,either in normal operationor in the eventof equipment malfunction. System
design,installation,commissioningandmaintenancemustbecarriedoutbypersonnel
who have the necessary training and experience. They must read this safety
information and this User Guide carefully.
The STOP function of the Drive does notremove dangerous voltages from the output
of the Drive or from any external option unit.
Carefulconsiderationmust be givento the functionsof t he Drive which might resultin
a hazard, either throughtheir intendedfunctions or throughincorrect operationdue to
afault.
In any application where a malfunction of the Drive could lead to damage, loss or
injury,a risk analysismust be carried out, and where necessary,further measures
takentoreducetherisk.
The STOPand STARTcontrols or electrical inputs of the Drivemust notbe relied
upon to ensure safety of personnel. If a safety hazard could exist from
unexpected startingof t he Drive, an interlock that electricallyisolatesthe Drive
from the AC supply must be installed to prevent the motor being inadvertently
started.
To ensuremechanical safety, additionalsafety devices suchas electro-mechanical
interlocks and overspeed protection devices may be required. TheDrive must not be
used in a safety critical applicationwithout additional high integrity protection against
hazards arising from a malfunction.
Undercertain conditions, the Drivecan suddenlydiscontinue control of the motor.If
the load on the motor couldcausethe motor speed to be increased(e.g.in hoistsand

1.6Motor
Ensure the motorisinstalled in accordance withthe manufacturer’srecommendations.
Ensure the motor shaft is not exposed.
Standard squirrel cage induction motors are designedforsingle speed operation. Ifit
is intended to use the capabilityof the Drive to run a motor at speedsabove its
designed maximum,it is strongly recommended that the manufacturer is consulted
first.
Low speeds may causethe motor to overheatbecausethe cooling fan becomes less
effective. The motor should be fitted with a protection thermistor. If necessary, an
electric forced vent fan should be used.
1.7Adjusting parameters
Some parameters havea profoundeffect on the operation ofthe Drive. Theymust 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.

4.1Safety information
Follow the instructions
The mechanical and electrical installation instructions must be adhered to.
WARNING
WARNING
4.2Planning the installation
Any questions or doubt should be referred to thesupplierof 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 safetyand EMC. The assembler is responsible for
ensuring that the end product or system complies with all the relevant laws
inthecountrywhereitistobeused.
The following considerations must bemade when planning the installation:
Access
Access must be restricted to authorised personnel only. Safety regulations which
apply at the place of use must be complied with.
Environmental protection
The Drive must be protectedfrom:
•moisture, including dripping water or spraying water and condensation. An anticondensationheatermay be required, which must be switchedoff when the Drive
is r unning.
•contamination with electrically conductive material
•temperature beyond the specified operating and storage ranges
Cooling
The heat produced by the Drive mustbe removed without its specified operating
temperature being exceeded. Note that a sealed enclosure gives much reduced
coolingcomparedwithaventilatedone,andmayneedtobelargerand/oruseinternal
air circulatingfans. For furtherinformation on enclosure design, pleaserefer to the
Commander SE Advanced User Guide.
Electrical safety
The installationmust besafe undernormaland fault conditions. Electricalinstallation
instructions are given later in thischapter.
Fire protection
The Drive enclosureis not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire enclosure
must be provided.
Electromagnetic compatibility
Variable speed Drives are powerful electronic circuits which can cause
electromagneticinterferenceif not installed correctlywith careful attentionto the layout
of the wiring.
Some simple routine precautions canprevent disturbance to typical industrial control
equipment.

•AC supply cables and connections
•Output cables and connections
•Many internal parts of the Drive, and external option units
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.
STOP function
The STOP function does not remove dangerous voltages from the Drive or
any external option units.
Storedcharge
The Drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal
voltage after the AC supply has been disconnected. If the Drive has been
energised, the AC supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work
may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal resistor. Under
certain, unusual fault conditions, it is possible thatthe capacitors may failto
discharge,orbe preventedfrombeing dischargedbya voltageapplied t o the

conductors having a suitable voltage rating,for the following power connections:
•AC supply to RFI filter (when used)
•AC supply (or RFI filter) to Drive
•Drive to motor
•Driveto braking resistor
Fuses
The AC supply to theDrive must be fitted with suitable protection against

Motor cables
For routine EMC precautions
Use either of the following:
•Cables containing three power conductors plus a ground conductor
For full EMC precautions, whererequired (see section 4.5.2)
Use shielded (screened) or steel-wire armoured cable having three powerconductors

4.4.3 Input Line reactors
When the Drive is connected to an AC supply with a high fault current or which is
subjectto severe disturbances, excessive peak current may flow in the input power
supply circuit of the Drive, which may cause nuisance tripping, or in extreme cases,
Drive failure.
An input AC line reactor should be installed in the following cases as it will add the
required impedance to reducetransientcurrents to a level which can be tolerated by
the input rectifier:
•supply capacity exceeds200kVA
•fault current exceeds 5kA
•power factor correction equipmentis connectedclose to the Drive
•large DC Drives with no or ineffective line reactors are connected to the supply
•direct-on-line started motor(s) are connected to the same supply and, when any
of these motors are started, a dip is produced in excess of 20% ofthe actual
supply voltage
NOTE
EMC filters d o not provide the same protection as input reactors.
Line reactors also improve the input currentwaveform and reduce the input current
harmoniclevels.Further information is includedin the EMC Data sheet which is
available from Control Techniques’ Drive Centresor Distributors.
4.5Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
This section gives installation guidelines for ensuring electromagnetic compatibility.
Furtherdetailedinformation is provided in theEMC Data sheets which are available
from Control Techniques’ Drive Centres or distributors.
The Drivemeets the standards for electromagnetic immunity stated in section3.2
withoutany specialinstallation precautions. To prevent possible nuisance tripping, it
is recommended that all inductivecircuits associated with theDrive,for example relay
coils, electromagnetic brakes etc. should be fittedwith appropriate suppression.
The following precautionsshould be taken to preventthe Drivefrom causing

EN50081-2 is required.
•Where sensitiveradio receiving or similar equipment is in use nearby.
•Wheresensitiveelectronic equipment with poor electromagneticimmunityis in
use nearby.
4.5.1 Routine EMC precautions
The routine precautions are based on the following principles:
1 The motorcable carries a high levelof electrical ‘noise’. It should be segregated
from all signal circuits, and should include a ground conductor linking the Drive
grounddirectlyto the motor frame.
2 The mainssupply wiring also carries electrical noise and should be segregated
from signal circuits.
3 The Drive also generates a noise field so sensitive circuits should not be passed
closetoit.
4 “Noise” currentflows in power wiringand returnsthrough the ground (earth). To
minimisenoise loopareas, groundwires should be run as close as possibleto their
associated powerwires.
5 TheDrivegroundtendstobe ‘noisy’,so it ispreferableforthe controlcircuitstobe
grounded only at the controller and not at theDrive.
4.5.2 Full EMC precautions
Figure 4.7 shows the requirements which be followed closely in order to meet EMC
emission standards except for EN61800-3, second environment.Furtherguidance
and informationon EMC standards is givenin the EMC Data sheets which are

4.5.3 Special requirements
Specialconsiderationsare requiredfor the following requirements:
Meeting the residential emission standard, EN50081-1 (Size 1 only)
One of the footprint filters (part number4200-6102or 4200-6103) must be used.
Interruptions to the motor cable
The motor cable should ideallybe a single run of shieldedcable having no
interruptions. In somesituationsit maybe necessary to interrupt thecable, for example
to connect the motor cable to a terminal block withinthe Drive enclosure,or to fit an
isolator switch to allow safe working on the motor. In these cases both motor cable
shield connections must be clamped directly to the back-plate or other flat metallic
structure, as illustrated in figures 4.8 and 4.9. Keep the length of unscreened power
conductors to a minimum, keep them as close as possible to the metal plate, and
ensure that all sensitive equipment and circuits are at least 0.3m (12in) away from
them.

Figure 5.3 Control terminal connections
NOTE
The connection arrangement shown here illustrates how the terminals are
intended to be used. Screening of the analog signalwires is not essential, but
reduces the riskof electrical noise causing disturbanceto the signals.
Where full EMC precautions are required,the guidelines in section 4.5.2must
also be followed to ensure compliance with radio frequency emission limits.
This requires the use of one or more screened cables for all wiring to
terminals 1 to 14, with the screen bonded to the gland plate ( ground). This
results in the 0V common terminal being connected to ground through the
cable screen.
Where it is required to keep 0V separate from ground, there are two
possibilities:
•Use a multi-core cable with overall screen, using one core for the 0V
connection. There is a slight risk of electrical noise affecting the
analog inputs.
•Use a double screened cable for the analog inputs, with the inner
screen connected to 0V and the outer screen to ground.

Sets the acceleration and deceleration rate of the motorfor both directions of rotation.
The acceleration rate corresponds to thetime to accelerate from 0 to 100Hz.
Therefore, with a programmedramp time of 5 seconds, the ramp output will reach
50Hz from 0Hz in 2.5 seconds.
The decelerationrate corresponds to the time to deceleratefrom 100 to 0Hz.
Therefore, with a programmedramp time of 10 seconds, the ramp outputwill reach
0Hz from50Hz in 5 seconds.
The deceleration rate could be extended by the Drive to prevent over voltage

could trip on overvoltage (OU).
Fastrampisnormallythemodeselectedwhenusingabrakingresistor.
1 - Standard ramp with normal motor voltage
The Drivecontrolsthe motor voltage according to the motor ratedvoltage entered in
parameter 08. The Drive may extend the decelerationramp to prevent the Drive
tripping on overvoltage(OU) if the load inertia is too high for the programmed
deceleration ramp.
2 - Standard ramp withhigh motor voltage
TheDrive allowsthe motorvoltage to increasebya factorof 1.2 timesthemotorrated
voltageentered in parameter 08. This increase in voltage saturates themotor, which
increases the losses and therefore reduces the amount of regenerated energy
transferringfromthemotortotheDC Bus for agivendecelerationrate. TheDrivemay
extendthe deceleration ramp to preventthe Drive tripping on overvoltage (OU) if the
load inertia is too high for the programmeddeceleration ramp.

There are two levels of autotune that can be performed by the Commander SE.
Non-rotating static autotune
This autotune measures the motorstator resistance and system voltageoffset. The
resultsofthetestarestoredintheappropriate parameters. Afterthe testis carriedout,
the motor will run as requested.
NOTE
The motor must be at standstill before this test is initiated.
Rotating autotune
NOTE
The Drivewill always carryout a rotating autotuneon themotor in the forward
direction or motor rotationeven if the run reverse commandis givento initiate
the autotune routine.
In addition to the stator resistance and system voltage offset, the rated magnetising
current and totalsystem leakage inductance are measured. The motor isaccelerated
2
up to
/3ratedspeed in the forward direction of motorrotationto measurethe rated
magnetising current. The speed will be less if insufficient DC Bus voltage is available
to operate at
2
/3rated speed without fieldweakening. After this autotune has been
carriedout, the run forwardor run reverse terminalwillneed to be opened and closed
to allow the motor to run.
The stator resistance and voltage offset are stored in their appropriate parameters.
Theratedmagnetisingcurrentandtotalsystemleakage inductanceareusedto set u p
the motor rated power factor (parameter 09).
NOTE
The motor must be at standstill and unloaded before this test is initiated.
The main advantageof carryingout a rotatingautotuneover a non-rotating autotune
is that the Drive calculates the correct power factor, rated torquecurrent and
magnetising current for the motor. This will give more accurate slip compensation (if
enabled).
Autotune Procedure
Beforea non-rotatingstaticautotuneis carriedout, the Drive’smotor map parameters
should be correctly set:
Parameter 06 - motor rated currentParameter 08 - motorrated voltage
Parameter 07 - motor rated speedParameter 09 - motor power factor
Beforearotatingautotuneis carriedout,additional parametersshouldbecorrectlyset
(this is only true if the motor is not a standard 50/60Hzmotor).
Parameter 39 - motor rated frequency Parameter 02 - maximum speed

NOTE
NOTE
NOTE
Althoughparameter38isdefaultedto‘noautotune’,on the veryfirst powerup, Enable
and Run command of the Drive after delivery from the factory, the Drive will initiate a
non-rotatingstaticautotune.Afterthistest,theautotune will be dependentonthevalue
set in parameter 38. The results of this test will depend on what is connected to the
Drive’s motor terminals.
Whendefaultparameters are set (see parameter29) the firsttime the Drive is
given an Enable and Run command, a non-rotating autotune will be initiated.
No motor connected
Withno motor connected,the Drive will trip on ‘rS’ which indicatesa statorresistance
measurement failure. This will be stored in the Drive as zero ohms. The trip can be
reset and theDrive run as normal.If the Driveis powereddown and thenback up, after
an enable and run signal, it will again perform a non-rotating static autotune and trip
on ‘rS’.
Motor connected but stator resistance higher than allowable value
The Drive will again trip on ‘rS’ if the stator resistance being measuredis greater than
the Drive’s internalmaximumlimit. This can happen if a star connectedmotor is
connected to a 200V Commander SE or a motorof a lower kW rating is connected to
a largerkW Commander SE.Inthis case, the Drive will store the maximum allowable
stator resistance forthatsize ofDrive.If theDrive is powered down and then back up,
after an enable and run signal, it will not perform another autotune.
The Drivewill tripon ‘rS’if thecurrentlevels required to measurethe stator resistance
arenotreachedintheallowabletesttime.ThiswillbestoredintheDrive as zeroohms.
This can occur because a combination ofstator resistance andmotorvoltageprevents
therequiredcurrent levels being reached.If theDriveis powereddown andthenback
up, afteran enable and run signal,it will again perform a non-rotating staticautotune.
The current levelsrequired fora successful autotuneare bothhalf andfullmotorrated
current(parameter 06). Two measurementsare taken to ensure accurate results.
Important Notes:
It is importantto ensurethat the motorwiring configurationis correct (i.e. Star
/ Delta) before performing an autotune.
If any changes are made to theDrive’s motormap parameters, system wiring,
motor wiring configuration or motor type, the Drive must be re-autotuned to
the motor. Not performing another autotune will result in poor motor
performance or OI.AC trips.
