FUNCTIONS OF THE VACON® AC DRIVE

Wizards for startup, PID control, multipump and fire mode to make the commissioning

•

easy.

The Funct button for an easy change between the local and the remote control place. The

•

remote control place can be I/O or fieldbus. You can make a selection of the remote

control place with a parameter.

Run interlock input (Damper interlock). Drive does not start before this input is activated.

•

A control page to operate and monitor of the most important values quickly.

•

Different pre-heat modes to prevent condensation problems.

•

A maximum output frequency of 320 Hz.

•

A Real time clock and timer functions (an optional battery is necessary). It is possible to

•

program 3 time channels to get different functions on the drive.

An external PID controller is available. You can use it, for example, to control a valve with

•

the I/O of the AC drive.

A sleep mode function that automatically enables and disables the operation of the drive

•

to save energy.

A 2-zone PID controller with 2 different feedback signals: minimum and maximum

•

control.

2 setpoint sources for the PID control. You can make the selection with a digital input.

•

A function for PID setpoint boost.

•

A feedforward function to make the response to the process changes better.

•

A process value supervision.

•

A multipump control.

•

A pressure loss compensation to compensate pressure losses in the pipework for

•

example when the sensor is incorrectly placed near the pump or fan.

1 QUICK STARTUP GUIDE

1.1 CONTROL PANEL AND KEYPAD

The control panel is the interface between the AC drive and the user. With the control panel,
you can control the speed of a motor and monitor the status of the AC drive. You can also set
the parameters of the AC drive.

Fig. 1: The buttons of the keypad

A. The BACK/RESET button. Use it to move

back in the menu, exit the Edit mode,

reset a fault.
B. The arrow button UP. Use it to scroll the

menu up and to increase a value.
C. The FUNCT button. Use it to change the

rotation direction of the motor, access

the control page, and change the control

place. See more in Table 12 Control

reference settings.

D. The arrow button RIGHT.
E. The START button.
F. The arrow button DOWN. Use it to scroll

the menu down and to decrease a value.
G. The STOP button.
H. The arrow button LEFT. Use it to move

the cursor left.
I. The OK button. Use it to go into an active

level or item, or to accept a selection.

1.2 THE DISPLAYS

There are 2 display types: the graphical display and the text display. The control panel always
has the same keypad and buttons.

The display shows this data.

The application wizard helps you to set the basic parameters that are related to the
application.

To start the PID mini-wizard, set the value Activate to parameter P1.17 PID Mini-Wizard in the
Quick Setup menu.

The default settings tell you to use the PID controller in the one feedback / one setpoint
mode. The default control place is I/O A, and the default process unit is %.

3.2.2 RESETTING A FAULT

To reset a fault, you can use the Reset button or the parameter Reset Faults. See the
instructions in 11.1 A fault comes into view.

3.2.3 THE FUNCT BUTTON

You can use the Funct button for 3 functions.

To have an access to the Control page.

•

To easily change between the Local and Remote control places.

•

To change the rotation direction.

•

The selection of the control place determines from where the AC drive takes the start and
stop commands. All the control places have a parameter for the selection of the frequency
reference source. The Local control place is always the keypad. The Remote control place is
I/O or Fieldbus. You can see the current control place on the status bar of the display.

It is possible to use I/O A, I/O B and Fieldbus as Remote control places. I/O A and Fieldbus
have the lowest priority. You can make a selection of them with P3.2.1 (Remote Control
Place). I/O B can bypass the Remote control places I/O A and Fieldbus with a digital input.
You can make a selection of the digital input with parameter P3.5.1.5 (I/O B Control Force).

The keypad is always used as a control place when the control place is Local. Local control
has higher priority than Remote control. For example, when you are in Remote control, if
parameter P3.5.1.5 bypasses the control place with a digital input, and you make a selection
of Local, Keypad becomes the control place. Use the Funct button or P3.2.2 Local/Remote to
change between the Local and Remote control.
