AC Drives
Unidrive SP
Solutions Platform
OVERVIEW
The Unidrive SP is “The Benchmark” for AC drive and
servo controls in the automation industry. It is a truly
scalable “Solutions Platform” with the fl exibility to be
personalized to customer requirements, and lower true
total cost while maximizing productivity.
The Unidrive SP “Solution Platform” incorporates many
cost saving and performance improvement features
based on input from end users and OEMs. These include
Secure Disable, Multiple Fieldbus capability, on-board
EMC fi lter, Universal feedback device support, and the
facility for up to three Solution Modules to tailor the drive
to specifi c application needs. Open loop, closed loop
vector, servo control modes make the Unidrive SP the
ideal “Solutions Platform.”

Standard Features of the Unidrive SP
앫 5 Operating modes: V/Hz, open loop vector, closed
loop vector, servo, and regen
앫 Encoder feedback as standard (select from 14 types)
앫 Built-in shaft orientation mode
앫 Digital lock with adjustable ratio (frequency slaving)
Comprehensive Autotune
Inertia monitoring and static autotune reduce startup
time.
Univeral Feedback Interface
Supports 14 different feedback configurations,
including several absolute encoders. No need for
additional components.
High Resolution Analog Input
16-bit, 250 µsec interface for high performance
applications. Two additional 10-bit analog inputs for
low level controls.
Extensive Fieldbus Connectivity
ModbusRTU (Standard), Profibus-DP (12Mbit),
Ethernet, DeviceNet, CAN, CANOpen, Interbus-S and
CTNet optional via zero-space SM modules. Up to
four fieldbuses can connect to a single drive,
eliminating the need for expensive gateways.
Three Universal Option Slots
Fieldbus, control and application SM modules fit in
any of the three option slots beneath the drive cover.
Secure Disable Function
Conforms to IEC954-1 Category 3 for machine safety
with system cost reduction.
앫 Programmable boolean logic (AND, NAND, OR,
NOR) gates with delay outputs
앫 Programmable threshold comparators
앫 Built-in PID controller
앫 S-ramp accel/decel profiling
앫 Built-in MOP (motorized potentiometer)
앫 8 Preset speeds and independent accel/decel rates
앫 3 Skip frequencies with adjustable bandwidths
앫 Run time chronometers
앫 Configurable analog and digital I/O
앫 Selectable Stopping modes including Coast, Ramp,
and DC injection
앫 Dynamic Braking capability
앫 Removable control terminals common to all sizes
Feature Enhancements to Unidrive SP
앫 Output frequencies up to 3000Hz
앫 Intelligent Thermal Management (ITM) technology
with switching frequencies up to 16kHz
SmartCard for Simple Setup and Cloning
Easy-to-use card stores drive configuration for simple
startup and parameter cloning. Supplied free with
Unidrive SP.
Keypad Options
Choose no keypad, LED keypad or LCD keypad based
on the system design and operating environment.
Drive Mounted Brake Resistor
Unidrive SP sizes 1 and 2 feature a drive mounted
brake resistor option to reduce panel space
requirements.
