2.2.2 Multimonitor Monitoring
2.2.2.1 Changing the Items to Monitor
On the Multimonitor page, 4–9 items can be monitored. Select the number of items with the parameter Multimonitor View (ID 1196)
in the Application Settings menu.
Procedure
1.
Go into the Monitor menu with the [OK] button.
2.
Go into Multimonitor.
To replace an old item, activate it. Use the arrow buttons.

2.2.6 Faults
2.2.6.1 Uses of the Active Faults Submenu
When there is a fault or many faults, the display shows the name of the fault and blinks. Push [OK] to go back to the Diagnostics
menu. The submenu Active faults shows the number of faults. To see the fault-time data, select a fault and push [OK].
The Active faults submenu can keep storage of maximum 10 faults. The submenu shows the faults in the sequence in which they
occurred.
When the drive shows a fault and stops, examine the cause of fault, and reset the fault. The fault stays active until it is reset.
There are 2 procedures to reset a fault in the local control place: with the [BACK/RESET] button and with a parameter. It is also possi-
ble to reset faults by using I/O, a fieldbus, or a PC tool.
N O T I C E
Before resetting the fault, remove the external control signal to prevent restarting the drive accidentally.
2.2.6.2.1 Resetting Faults with the [BACK/RESET] Button
Procedure
1.
Push the [BACK/RESET] button on the keypad of the control panel for 2 seconds.
2.2.6.2.2 Resetting Faults with a Parameter on the Graphical Display
Faults can be reset with the parameter Reset Faults.
Procedure
1.
Go to the Diagnostics Menu.
2.
Go to the submenu Reset faults.
Select the parameter Reset Faults.
3.
2.2.6.3 Uses of the Fault History
The Fault history shows more data on the faults. There is a maximum number of 40 faults in the Fault history.

User Interfaces
2.2.7.1 Different Control Places
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 Keypad. The Remote control
place is I/O or Fieldbus. The status bar of the display shows the current control place.
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. Select 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. Select the digital
input with parameter P3.5.1.7 (I/O B Control Force).
Keypad is always used as a control place when the control place is Local. Local control has higher priority than Remote control. For
example, if parameter P3.5.1.7 bypasses the control place with a digital input, and Local is selected in Remote control, Keypad becomes the control place. Use the [FUNCT] button or P3.2.2 Local/Remote to change between the Local and Remote control.
2.2.7.2 Changing the Control Place
This topic gives instructions on how to change the control place on the control panel.
Procedure
Anywhere in the menu structure, push the [FUNCT] button.
1.
To select Local/Remote, use the arrow buttons Up and Down. Push the [OK] button.
To select Local or Remote, use the arrow buttons Up and Down again. To accept the selection, push the [OK] button.
User Interfaces
4.
If Remote control place is changed to Local, that is, Keypad, give a keypad reference.
After the selection, the display goes back into the same location where it was when the [FUNCT] button was push-
ed.
2.2.7.3 Going into the Control Page
It is easy to monitor the most important values in the Control page.
If other control places or reference values are used, the display shows the frequency reference, which cannot be edited. The other
values on the page are Multimonitor values. These monitoring values can be selected.
Procedure
Anywhere in the menu structure, push the [FUNCT] button.
1.
2.
To select the Control page, push the arrow buttons Up and Down. Go in with the [OK] button.
The Control page opens.
With the Local control place and the keypad reference selected, P3.3.1.8 Keypad Reference can be set with the [OK] button.
3.
To change the digits in the value, push the arrow buttons Up and Down. Accept the change with the [OK] button.
4.
2.2.7.4 Changing the Rotation Direction
The rotation direction of the motor can be changed quickly with the [FUNCT] button.
N O T I C E

Procedure
1.
Anywhere in the menu structure, push the [FUNCT] button.
2.
To select Change direction, push the arrow buttons Up and Down. Push the [OK] button.
The rotation direction changes immediately. The arrow indication in the status field of the display changes.

This function is available only in the graphical display.
Use the arrow buttons Up and Down to select a function. Accept the selection with the [OK] button.
User Interfaces
The command Restore factory defaults brings back the parameter settings that were made at the factory. Use the command Save to keypad to copy all the parameters to the control panel. The command Restore from keypad copies all the
parameters from the control panel to the drive.
2.
Detach the control panel and connect it to another drive.
3.
Download the parameters to the new drive with the command Restore from keypad.

It is possible to add frequently used items into Favourites where they are easily accessible.
Procedure
1.
Find the item to be added to Favourites. Push the [OK] button.
2.
Select Add to favourites and push the [OK] button.
The steps are now completed.
3.
To continue, read the instructions on the display.
2.2.11.2 Removing an Item from the Favourites
Procedure
1.
Go to the Favourites.
2.
Find the item to be removed. Push the [OK] button.
Make the connection between the AC drive and the PC tool with the VACON® serial communication cable. The serial communication drivers are installed automatically during the installation of VACON® Live. After the cable is installed, VACON® Live finds the
connected drive automatically.
See more on how to use VACON® Live in the help menu of the program.
The programming of inputs of the AC drive is flexible. It is possible to use freely the available inputs of the standard and optional I/O
for different functions.
It is possible to expand the available capacity of I/O with option boards. It is possible to install the option boards in the slots C, D,
and E. For more data on the installation of option boards, see the Installation Guide.

The INU application is used to control the INU phase modules of the VACON® 3000.
It is possible to control the drive from the control panel (keypad), Fieldbus, or I/O terminal.
When controlling the drive with the I/O terminal, the frequency reference signal is connected to AI1 (0…10 V) or AI2 (4…20 mA).
The connection depends the type of the signal. There are also 3 preset frequency references available. The preset frequency references can be activated with DI4 and DI5. The start/stop signals of the drive are connected to DI1 (start forward) and DI2 (start reverse).
It is possible to configure all the drive outputs freely. There is 1 analog output (Output Frequency) and 3 relay outputs (Run, Fault,
Ready) available on the Basic I/O board.
