Introduction

VLT® Midi Drive FC 280

1	1	1.2.5 Miscellaneous
		Analog inputs
		The analog inputs are used for controlling various
		functions of the frequency converter.
		There are 2 types of analog inputs:
		•	Current input, 0–20 mA and 4–20 mA.
		•	Voltage input, 0 to +10 V DC.

Analog outputs

The analog outputs can supply a signal of 0–20 mA, or 4– 20 mA.

Automatic motor adaptation, AMA

The AMA algorithm determines the electrical parameters for the connected motor at standstill.

Brake resistor

The brake resistor is a module capable of absorbing the brake power generated in regenerative braking. This regenerative brake power increases the intermediate circuit voltage, and a brake chopper ensures that the power is transmitted to the brake resistor.

CT characteristics

Constant torque characteristics used for all applications such as conveyor belts, displacement pumps, and cranes.

Digital inputs

The digital inputs can be used for controlling various functions of the frequency converter.

Digital outputs

The frequency converter features 2 solid-state outputs that can supply a 24 V DC (maximum 40 mA) signal.

ETR

Electronic thermal relay is a thermal load calculation based on present load and time. Its purpose is to estimate the motor temperature.

FC standard bus

Includes RS485 bus with FC protocol or MC protocol. See parameter 8-30 Protocol.

Initializing

If initializing is carried out (parameter 14-22 Operation Mode or 2 €nger reset), the frequency converter returns to the default setting.

Intermittent duty cycle

An intermittent duty rating refers to a sequence of duty cycles. Each cycle consists of an on-load and an off-load period. The operation can be either periodic duty or nonperiodic duty.

LCP

The local control panel makes up a complete interface for control and programming of the frequency converter. The control panel is detachable and can be installed up to 3 m (9.8 ft) from the frequency converter, that is, in a front panel with the installation kit option.

GLCP

The graphic local control panel (LCP 102) interface for control and programming of the frequency converter. The display is graphic and the panel is used to show process values. The GLCP has storing and copy functions.

NLCP

The numerical local control panel (LCP 21) interface for control and programming of the frequency converter. The display is numerical and the panel is used to show process values. The NLCP has storing and copy functions.

lsb

Least signi€cant bit.

msb

Most signi€cant bit.

MCM

Short for mille circular mil, an American measuring unit for cable cross-section. 1 MCM = 0.5067 mm2.

On-line/off-line parameters

Changes to on-line parameters are activated immediately after the data value is changed. Press [OK] to activate changes to off-line parameters.

Process PID

The PID control maintains speed, pressure, and temperature by adjusting the output frequency to match the varying load.

PCD

Process control data.

Power cycle

Switch off the mains until the display (LCP) is dark, then turn power on again.

Power factor

The power factor is the relation between I1 and IRMS.

Introduction	Programming Guide

RCD

Residual current device.

Set-up

Save parameter settings in 4 set-ups. Change among the 4 parameter set-ups and edit 1 set-up while this set-up is inactive.

SFAVM

Acronym describing the switching pattern stator fluxoriented asynchronous vector modulation.

Slip compensation

The frequency converter compensates for the motor slip by giving the frequency a supplement that follows the measured motor load, keeping the motor speed almost constant.

Smart logic control (SLC)

The SLC is a sequence of user-de€ned actions executed when the associated user-de€ned events are evaluated as true by the smart logic controller (parameter group 13-** Smart Logic Control).

STW

Status word.

THD

Total harmonic distortion states the total contribution of harmonic distortion.

Thermistor

A temperature-dependent resistor placed where the temperature is monitored (frequency converter or motor).

Trip

1 1

A state entered in fault situations, for example if the frequency converter is subject to overvoltage or when it is protecting the motor, process, or mechanism. Restart is prevented until the cause of the fault has disappeared, and the trip state is canceled by activating reset or, sometimes, by being programmed to reset automatically. Do not use trip for personal safety.

Trip lock

A state entered in fault situations when the frequency converter is protecting itself and requiring physical intervention, for example if the frequency converter is subject to a short circuit on the output. A locked trip can only be canceled by cutting off mains, removing the cause of the fault, and reconnecting the frequency converter. Restart is prevented until the trip state is canceled by activating reset or, in some cases, by being programmed to reset automatically. Do not use trip lock for personal safety.

VT characteristics

Variable torque characteristics used for pumps and fans.

VVC+

If compared with standard voltage/frequency ratio control, voltage vector control (VVC+) improves the dynamics and stability, both when the speed reference is changed and in relation to the load torque.

60° AVM

Refers to the switching pattern 60° asynchronous vector modulation.

Introduction	Programming Guide

In rare cases, long control cables and analog signals result in 50/60 Hz ground loops due to noise from mains supply cables. If this occurs, break the shield or insert a 100 nF capacitor between shield and chassis.

Connect the digital and analog inputs and outputs separately to the common inputs (terminal 55) of the frequency converter to avoid that ground currents from both groups affect other groups. For example, switching on the digital input could disturb the analog input signal.

3.1.9 Restoring Default Settings with LCP

NOTICE

Risk of losing programming, motor data, localization, and monitoring records by restoration of default settings. To

3 3 provide a back-up, upload data to the LCP before initialization.

Restoring the default parameter settings is done by initialization of the frequency converter. Initialization is carried out through parameter 14-22 Operation Mode

(recommended) or manually. Initialization does not reset the settings for parameter 1-06 Clockwise Direction and parameter 0-03 Regional Settings.

•Initialization using parameter 14-22 Operation Mode does not reset frequency converter settings, such as operating hours, serial communication selections, fault log, alarm log, and other monitoring functions.

•Manual initialization erases all motor, programming, localization, and monitoring data and restores factory default settings.

Recommended initialization procedure, via parameter 14-22 Operation Mode

1.Select parameter 14-22 Operation Mode and press [OK].

2.Select [2] Initialisation and press [OK].

3.Remove power to the unit and wait until the display turns off.

4.Apply power to the unit.

Default parameter settings are restored during start-up.

This may take slightly longer than normal.

5.Alarm 80, Drive initialised to default value is shown.

6.Press [Reset] to return to operation mode.

Manual initialization procedure

1.Remove power to the unit and wait until the display turns off.

2.Press and hold [Status], [Main Menu], and [OK] at the same time on the GLCP, or press [Menu] and [OK] at the same time on the NLCP while applying power to the unit (approximately 5 s or until a click is heard and the fan starts).

Factory default parameter settings are restored during start-up. This may take slightly longer than normal.

Manual initialization does not reset the following frequency converter information:

•Parameter 15-00 Operating hours.

•Parameter 15-03 Power Up's.

•Parameter 15-04 Over Temp's.

•Parameter 15-05 Over Volt's.

3.2Basic Programming

3.2.1 Asynchronous Motor Set-up

Enter the following motor data in the listed order. Find the information on the motor nameplate.

1.Parameter 1-20 Motor Power.

2.Parameter 1-22 Motor Voltage.

3.Parameter 1-23 Motor Frequency.

4.Parameter 1-24 Motor Current.

5.Parameter 1-25 Motor Nominal Speed.

For optimum performance in VVC+ mode, extra motor data is required to set up the following parameters.

6.Parameter 1-30 Stator Resistance (Rs).

7.Parameter 1-31 Rotor Resistance (Rr).

8.Parameter 1-33 Stator Leakage Reactance (X1).

9.Parameter 1-35 Main Reactance (Xh).

The data is found in the motor datasheet (this data is typically not available on the motor nameplate). Run a complete AMA using parameter 1-29 Automatic Motor Adaption (AMA) [1] Enable Complete AMA or enter the parameters manually.

Application-specific adjustment when running VVC+

VVC+ is the most robust control mode. In most situations, it provides optimum performance without further adjustments. Run a complete AMA for best performance.

3.2.2 PM Motor Set-up in VVC+

Initial programming steps

1.Set parameter 1-10 Motor Construction to the following options to activate PM motor operation:

1a [1] PM, non salient SPM

1b [3] PM, salient IPM

2.Select [0] Open Loop in parameter 1-00 Con‚guration Mode.

NOTICE

Encoder feedback is not supported for PM motors.

Programming motor data

After selecting 1 of the PM motor options in

parameter 1-10 Motor Construction, the PM motor-related parameters in parameter groups 1-2* Motor Data, 1-3* Adv. Motor Data, and 1-4* Adv. Motor Data II are active.

Find the information on the motor nameplate and in the motor datasheet.

Program the following parameters in the listed order:

1.Parameter 1-24 Motor Current.

2.Parameter 1-26 Motor Cont. Rated Torque.

3.Parameter 1-25 Motor Nominal Speed.

4.Parameter 1-39 Motor Poles.

5.Parameter 1-30 Stator Resistance (Rs).

Enter line-to-common stator winding resistance (Rs). If only line-line data is available, divide the line-line value by 2 to achieve the line-to- common (starpoint) value.

It is also possible to measure the value with an ohmmeter, which also takes the resistance of the cable into account. Divide the measured value by 2 and enter the result.

6.Parameter 1-37 d-axis Inductance (Ld).

Enter line-to-common direct axis inductance of the PM motor.

If only line-to-line data is available, divide the line-line value by 2 to achieve the line-common (starpoint) value.

It is also possible to measure the value with an inductance meter, which also takes the inductance of the cable into account. Divide the measured value by 2 and enter the result.

7.Parameter 1-40 Back EMF at 1000 RPM.

Enter line-to-line back EMF of the PM motor at 1000 RPM mechanical speed (RMS value). Back EMF is the voltage generated by a PM motor when no frequency converter is connected and the shaft is turned externally. Back EMF is normally speci€ed for nominal motor speed or for 1000 RPM measured between 2 lines. If the value

is not available for a motor speed of 1000 RPM, calculate the correct value as follows: For example, if back EMF at 1800 RPM is 320 V, the back EMF at 1000 RPM is:

Back EMF=(Voltage/

RPM)x1000=(320/1800)x1000=178. 3 3

Program this value for parameter 1-40 Back EMF at 1000 RPM.

Test motor operation

1.Start the motor at low speed (100–200 RPM). If the motor does not turn, check installation, general programming, and motor data.

Parking

This function is the recommended option for applications where the motor rotates at slow speed (for example windmilling in fan applications). Parameter 2-06 Parking Current and parameter 2-07 Parking Time are adjustable. Increase the factory setting of these parameters for applications with high inertia.

Start the motor at nominal speed. If the application does not run well, check the VVC+ PM settings. Table 3.13 shows recommendations in different applications.

Application	Settings
Low inertia applications	•	Increase the value for
ILoad/IMotor <5		parameter 1-17 Voltage ‚lter time
		const. by factor 5–10.
	•	Reduce the value for
		parameter 1-14 Damping Gain.
	•	Reduce the value (<100%) for

3.2.3 Automatic Motor Adaptation (AMA)

3 3 To optimize compatibility between the frequency converter and the motor in VVC+ mode, run AMA.

•

•

•

•

The frequency converter builds a mathematical model of the motor for regulating output motor current, thus enhancing motor performance.

Some motors may be unable to run the complete version of the test. In that case, select [2] Enable reduced AMA in parameter 1-29 Automatic Motor Adaption (AMA).

If warnings or alarms occur, see chapter 6.1 Warnings and Alarms.

For best results, run this procedure on a cold motor.

To run AMA using the LCP

1.By default parameter setting, connect terminals 13 and 27 before running AMA.

2.Enter the Main Menu.

3.Go to parameter group 1-** Load and Motor.

4.Press [OK].

5.Set motor parameters using nameplate data for parameter group 1-2* Motor Data.

6.Set motor cable length in parameter 1-42 Motor Cable Length.

7.Go to parameter 1-29 Automatic Motor Adaption (AMA).

8.Press [OK].

9.Select [1] Enable complete AMA.

10.Press [OK].

11.The test runs automatically and indicates when it is complete.

Depending on the power size, the AMA takes 3– 10 minutes to complete.

NOTICE

The AMA function does not cause the motor to run and it does not harm the motor.
