The voltage of the frequency converter is
dangerous whenever the equipment is
connected to mains. Incorrect installation
of the motor or the frequency converter
may cause damage to the equipment, serious personal injury or death.
Consequently, the instructions in this
manual, as well as national and local rules
and safety regulations, must be complied
with.
The Protective Extra Low Voltage (PELV)
requirements stated in IEC 61800-5-1 are
not fulfilled at altitudes above 2000 m
(6562 ft.). For 200V frequency converters
the requirements are not fulfilled at altitudes above 5000 m (16 404 ft.). Please
contact Danfoss Drives for further information.
Safety regulations
6.Do
not remove the plugs for the motor and
main supply while the frequency converter is
connected to mains. Check that the mains
supply has been disconnected and that the
necessary time has expired before removing
motor and mains plugs.
7.Please note that the frequency converter has
more voltage inputs than L1, L2 and L3, when
loadsharing (linking of DC intermediate circuit) and external 24 V DC have been installed. Check that all voltage inputs have been
disconnected and that the necessary time
has passed before repair work is commenced.
1.The frequency converter must be disconnected from mains if repair work is to be carried
out. Check that the mains supply has been
disconnected and that the necessary time
has passed before removing motor and
mains plugs.
2.The [STOP/RESET] key on the control panel
of the frequency converter does not disconnect the equipment from mains and is thus
not to be used as a safety switch.
3.Correct protective earthing of the equipment
must be established, the user must be protected against supply voltage, and the motor
must be protected against overload in accordance with applicable national and local
regulations.
4.The earth leakage currents are higher than
3.5 mA.
5.Protection against motor overload is not included in the factory setting. If this function is
desired, set parameter 128 to data value ETRtrip or data value ETR warning.
Note: The function is initialised at 1.16 x rated
motor current and rated motor frequency. For
the North American market: The ETR functions provide class 20 motor overload protection in accordance with NEC.

5000 Design Guide
Control principle
A frequency converter rectifies AC voltage from mains
into DC voltage, after which this DC voltage is converted into a AC current with a variable amplitude and
frequency.
1. Mains voltage
3 x 200 - 240 V AC, 50 / 60 Hz.
3 x 380 - 500 V AC, 50 / 60 Hz.
3 x 525 - 600 V AC, 50 / 60 Hz.
3 X 525 - 690 V AC, 50 / 60 Hz.
2. Rectifier
A three-phase rectifier bridge that rectifies AC current
into DC current.
3. Intermediate circuit
DC voltage = 1.35 x mains voltage [V].
4. Intermediate circuit coils
Smooth the intermediate circuit current and limit the
load on mains and components (mains transformer,
wires, fuses and contactors).
The motor is thus supplied with variable voltage and
frequency, which enables infinitely variable speed
control of three-phased, standard AC motors.
6. Inverter
Converts DC voltage into variable AC voltage with a
variable frequency.
7. Motor voltage
Variable AC voltage, 0-100% of mains supply voltage.
Variable frequency: 0.5-132/0.5-1000 Hz.
8. Control card
This is where to find the computer that controls the inverter which generates the pulse pattern by which the
DC voltage is converted into variable AC voltage with
a variable frequency.
5. Intermediate circuit capacitors
Smooth the intermediate circuit voltage.

VVC
control principle
The frequency converter features an inverter control
SYSTEM called VVC
plus
, which is a further development of the Voltage Vector Control (VVC) known i.e.
from Danfoss VLT 3000 Series.
plus
VVC
controls an induction motor by energizing it
with a variable frequency and a voltage that matches
it. If the motor load is changed, the magnetisation of
the motor changes too, and so does its speed. Consequently, the motor current is measured continuously
and the actual voltage requirement and slip of the motor are calculated from a motor model. Motor frequency and voltage are adjusted to ensure that the motor
operating point remains optimum under varying conditions.
The development of the VVC
plus
principle is the result
of a wish to maintain robust, sensorless regulation that
is tolerant to different motor characteristics without
motor derating being required.
First and foremost, the current measurement and the
motor model have been improved. The current is split
into magnetising and torque-generating parts and provides for much better and quicker estimation of the
actual motor loads. It is now possible to compensate
for rapid load changes. Full torque as well as extremely
accurate speed control can now be obtained even at
low speeds or even at standstill.
In a "special motor mode", permanent magnet synchronous motors and/or parallel motors can be used.
Good torque control properties, smooth transitions to
and from current limit operation and robust pull-out
torque protection are ensured.

As standard, the frequency converter comes with a
number of integral components that would normally
have to be acquired separately. These integral components (RFI filter, DC coils, screen clamps and serial
communication port) are space-savers that simplify installation, since the frequency converter fulfills most
requirements without any supplementary components.
Programmable control inputs and signal outputs in four
Setups
The frequency converter uses a digital technique
which makes it possible to program the different control inputs and signal outputs and to select four different user-defined Setups for all parameters.
For the user, it is easy to program the desired functions
by means of the control panel on the frequency converter or the RS 485 user interface.
Protection against mains interference
The frequency converter is protected against the transients that occur in the mains supply, e.g. when switching power factor correction or when fuses blow.
The rated motor voltage and full torque can be maintained all the way down to 10% undervoltage in the
mains supply.
Minor interference on mains
Since as standard the frequency converter features
intermediate circuit coils, there is only a small amount
of harmonic mains supply interference. This ensures
a good power factor and lower peak current, which reduces the load on the mains installation.
Advanced VLT protection
Current measurement on all three motor phases provides perfect protection of the frequency converter
against earthing and short-circuiting faults on the motor connection.
Constant monitoring of all three motor phases enables
switching on the motor output, e.g. by means of a contactor.
Efficient monitoring of the three mains supply phases
ensures that the unit stops in the case of phase failure.
This avoids overloading the inverter and the capacitors
in the intermediate circuit, which would dramatically
reduce the service life of the frequency converter.
As standard, the frequency converter features integral
thermal protection. If a situation of thermal overload
occurs, this function cuts out the inverter.
Reliable galvanic isolation
In the frequency converter, all control terminals as well
as terminals 1-5 (AUX relays) are supplied by or connected to circuits that comply with PELV requirements
in relation to the mains potential.
Advanced motor protection
The frequency converter features integrated electronic, thermal motor protection.
The frequency converter calculates the motor temperature on the basis of current, frequency and time.
As opposed to the traditional bimetallic protection,
electronic protection takes account of the reduction in
cooling at low frequencies that comes from reduced
fan speed (motors with internal ventilation).
Thermal motor protection is comparable to a normal
motor thermistor.
To obtain maximum protection against overheating of
the motor if the motor is covered or blocked, or if the
fan fails, a thermistor can be integrated and connected
to the thermistor input of the frequency converter (terminals 53/54), see parameter 128 of the Operating
Instructions.

How to select your frequency converter
A frequency converter must be selected on the basis
of the given motor current at maximum load on the unit.
The rated output current I
must be equal to or
VLT,N
higher than the required motor current.
Normal/high overload torque mode
This function enables the frequency converter to perform a constant 100% torque, using an oversize motor.
The choice between a normal or a high overload torque characteristic is made in parameter 101.
This is also where to choose between a high/normal
constant torque characteristic (CT) or a high/normal
VT torque characteristic.
If a high torque characteristic is chosen, a rated motor
with the frequency converter obtains up to 160% torque for 1 min. in both CT and VT.
The frequency converter is supplied for four mains
voltage ranges: 200-240 V, 380-500 V, 525-600 V and
525-690 V.
If a normal torque characteristic is chosen, an oversize
motor allows up to 110% torque performance for up to
1 min. in both CT and VT. This function is used mainly
for pumps and fans, since these applications do not
require an overload torque.
The advantage of choosing a normal torque characteristic for an oversize motor is that the frequency
converter will be able constantly to yield 100% torque,
without derating as a result of a bigger motor.
NB!
This function
cannot be chosen for VLT
5001-5006, 200-240 Volts, and VLT
5001-5011, 380-500 Volts.
Type code ordering number string
The VLT 5000 series frequency converter is offered in
a large number of variants. On the basis of your order,
the frequency converter is given an ordering number
that can be seen from the nameplate on the unit. The
number may look as follows:

Selection of modules and accessories
Danfoss offers a wide range of modules and accessories for VLT 5000 Series.
Sine-wave filter module
The sine-wave filter reduces the voltage rise time (dU/
dt) and the ripple current (ΔI) to the motor, thereby
making current and voltage almost sinusoidal. The
acoustic motor noise is therefore reduced to a minimum.
See also instructions MI.56.DX.51.
LCP control unit
Control unit with display and keypad for programming
VLT frequency converters. Available as an option for
IP 00 and IP 20 units.
Enclosure: IP 65.
Remote-mounting kits for LCP
The remote kit option makes it possible to move the
display from the frequency converter e.g. to the front
panel of an integrated cabinet.

Contactors
Danfoss also manufactures a complete range of contactors.
Brake resistors
Brake resistors are used in applications where high
dynamics are needed or a high inertia load has to be
stopped. The brake resistor is used to remove the energy, see also Instructions MI.50.SX.YY and MI.
90.FX.YY.
Harmonic filter
Harmonic currents do not directly affect the electricity
consumption but has an impact on following conditions:
Higher total current to be handled by the installations
Increases load on transformer (sometimes it
-
will require a larger transformer, particular at
retrofit)
Increases heat losses in transformer and in-
-
stallation
In some cases demands larger cables,
-
switches and fuses
IP 4x top cover
IP 4x top cover is an optional enclosure element available for IP 20 Compact units.
If an IP 4x top cover is used, an IP 20 unit is upgraded
to comply with enclosure IP 4x from the top. In practice,
this means that the unit complies with IP 40 on upper,
horizontal surfaces.
A top cover is available for the following Compact
units:
VLT type 5001-5006, 200-240 V
VLT type 5001-5011, 380-500 V
VLT type 5001-5011, 525-600 V
Terminal cover
Using a terminal cover, it is possible to field mount an
IP 20 unit, type VLT 5008-5052.
A terminal cover is available for the following compact
units:
VLT type 5008-5027, 200-240 V
Higher voltage distortion due to higher current
Increase risk for disturbing electronic equip-
-
ment connected to same grid
A high percentage of rectifier load from eg frequency
converters, will increase the harmonic current, which
must be reduced to avoid the above consequences.
Therefore the frequency converter has as standard,
built in DC coils reducing the total current with about
40% (compared to devices without any arrangement
for harmonic suppression), down to 40-45% ThiD.
In some cases there is a need for further suppression
(eg retrofit with frequency converters). For this purpose Danfoss can offer two advanced harmonic filters
AHF05 and AHF10, bringing the harmonic current
down to around 5% and 10% respectively. For further

Modbus RTU
MODBUS RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) Protocol is a
messaging structure developed by Modicon in 1979,
used to establish master-slave/client-server communication between intelligent devices.
MODBUS is used to monitor and program devices; to
communicate intelligent devices with sensors and instruments; to monitor field devices using PCs and
HMIs.
MODBUS is often applied in Gas and Oil applications,
but also in building, infrastructure, transportation and
energy, applications are making use of its benefits.

Output Filters
The high speed switching of the frequency converter
produces some secondary effects, which influence the
motor and the enclosed environment. These side effects are addressed by two different filter types, -the
du/dt and the Sine-wave filter.
dU/dt filters
Motor insulation stresses are often caused by the combination of rapid voltage and current increase. The
rapid energy changes can also be reflected back to the
DC-line in the inverter and cause shut down. The du/
dt filter is designed to reduce the voltage rise time/the
rapid energy change in the motor and by that intervention avoid premature aging and flashover in the
motor insulation. du/dt filters have a positive influence
on the radiation of magnetic noise in the cable that
connects the drive to the motor. The voltage wave form
is still pulse shaped but the du/dt ratio is reduced in
comparison with the installation without filter.
®
VLT
5000 Design Guide
Sine-wave filters
Sine-wave filters are designed to let only low frequencies pass. High frequencies are consequently shunted
away which results in a sinusoidal phase to phase
voltage waveform and sinusoidal current waveforms.
With the sinusoidal waveforms the use of special frequency converter motors with reinforced insulation is
no longer needed. The acoustic noise from the motor
is also damped as a consequence of the wave condition.
Besides the features of the du/dt filter, the sine-wave
filter also reduces insulation stress and bearing currents in the motor thus leading to prolonged motor
lifetime and longer periods between services. Sinewave filters enable use of longer motor cables in applications where the motor is installed far from the
drive. The length is unfortunately limited because the
filter does not reduce leakage currents in the cables.

VLT 5001-5062, 525 - 600 V do not comply with EMC or Low Voltage Directives.
IP54 units are not intended for direct outdoor installation. The IP54 rating does not relate to other exposures as sun,
icing, wind blown driving rain. Under such circumstances Danfoss recommends to install the units in an enclosure
designed for these environmental conditions. Alternatively, an installation at minimum 0.5 m above surface and
covered by a shed is recommended
VLT 5000 Series protection:
Electronic motor thermal protection against overload.
Temperature monitoring of heat-sink ensures that the frequency converter cuts out if the temperature reaches 90°
C for IP 00, IP 20 and Nema 1. For IP 54, the cut-out temperature is 80°C. An overtemperature can only be reset
when the temperature of the heat-sink has fallen below 60°C.

The frequency converter is protected against short-circuiting on motor terminals U, V, W.
The frequency converter is protected against earth fault on motor terminals U, V, W.
Monitoring of the intermediate circuit voltage ensures that the frequency converter cuts out if the intermediate circuit voltage becomes
too high or too low.
If a motor phase is missing, the frequency converter cuts out, see parameter 234 Motor phase monitor.
If there is a mains fault, the frequency converter is able to carry out a controlled decelleration.
If a mains phase is missing, the frequency converter will cut out when a load is placed on the motor.

Electrical installation
The voltage on the frequency converter is
dangerous when the unit is connected to
mains. Incorrect installation of the motor
or the frequency converter may lead to
material damage or serious injury or it may
be fatal. Consequently, the instructions in
this manual as well as national and local
rules and safety regulations must be complied with.
Touching the electrical parts may be fatal,
even after the mains supply has been disconnected.
Using VLT 5001-5006, 200-240

minutes.
Using VLT 5008-5052, 200-240

NB!
The RFI switch must be closed (position
ON) when high voltage tests are carried
out (see section RFI Switch).
The mains and motor connection must be
interrupted in the case of high voltage
tests of the total installation if the leakage
currents are too high.
Safety earthing
NB!
The frequency converter has a high leakage current and must be earthed appropriately for safety reasons. Use earth
terminal (see section Electrical installation,power cables), which enables reinforced
earthing.
Apply national safety regulations.
Using VLT 5072-5302, 380-500

V: wait at least 20 minutes.
Using VLT 5402-5602, 525-690

NB!
It is the user's or certified electrician's responsibility to ensure correct earthing and
protection in accordance with applicable
national and local norms and standards.
Extra protection (RCD)
ELCB relays, multiple protective earthing or earthing
can be used as extra protection, provided that local
safety regulations are complied with.
In the case of an earth fault, a DC content may develop
in the faulty current.
If ELCB relays are used, local regulations must be observed. Relays must be suitable for protection of 3phase equipment with a bridge rectifier and for a brief
discharge on power-up.

If the EMC specifications regarding emission are to be complied with, the motor
cable must be screened, unless otherwise
stated for the RFI filter in question. It is
important to keep the motor cable as short
as possible so as to reduce the noise level
and leakage currents to a minimum.
The motor cable screen must be connected to the metal cabinet of the frequency
converter and to the metal cabinet of the
motor. The screen connections are to be
made with the biggest possible surface
(cable clamp). This is enabled by different
installation devices in the different frequency converters.
®
VLT
5000 Design Guide
Direction of motor rotation
Installation with twisted screen ends (pigtails) is to be
avoided, since these spoil the screening effect at higher frequencies.
If it is necessary to break the screen to install a motor
isolator or motor contactor, the screen must be continued at the lowest possible HF impedance.
The frequency converter has been tested with a given
length of cable and a given cross-section of that cable.
If the cross-section is increased, the cable capacitance
- and thus the leakage current - increases, and the cable length must be reduced correspondingly.
When frequency converters are used together with
sine-wave filters to reduce the acoustic noise from a
motor, the switching frequency must be set according
to the sine-wave filter instruction in Parameter 411.
When setting the switching frequency higher than 3
kHz, the output current is derated in SFAVM mode. By
changing Parameter 446 to 60° AVM mode, the frequency at which the current is derated is moved upwards. Please see Design Guide.
The factory setting is for clockwise rotation with the
frequency transformer output connected as follows.
Terminal 96 connected to U-phase
Terminal 97 connected to V-phase
Terminal 98 connected to W-phase
The direction of motor rotation can be changed by
switching two phases in the motor cable.
Parallel coupling of motors
Electrical installation
Connection of motor
All types of 3-phased asynchronous standard motors
can be used with the VLT 5000 Series.
Normally, small motors are star-connected (200/400
V, Δ/Y).
Large motors are delta-connected (400/690 V, Δ/Y).
MG.52.B2.02 - VLT

Frequency converters are able to control several motors connected in parallel. If the motors are to have
different rpm values, the motors must have different
rated rpm values. Motor rpm is changed simultaneously, which means that the ratio between the rated
rpm values is maintained across the range.
The total current consumption of the motors is not to
exceed the maximum rated output current I
VLT,N
for the
frequency converter.
Problems may arise at the start and at low rpm values
if the motor sizes are widely different. This is because
the relatively high ohmic resistance in small motors
calls for a higher voltage at the start and at low rpm
values.
In systems with motors connected in parallel, the electronic thermal relay (ETR) of the frequency converter
cannot be used as motor protection for the individual
motor. Consequently, additional motor protection is
required, such as thermistors in each motor (or individual thermal relays) suitable for frequency converter
use.
Please note that the individual motor cable for each
motor must be summed and is not to exceed the total
motor cable length permitted.
Motor thermal protection
The electronic thermal relay in UL-approved frequency
converters has received the UL-approval for single
motor protection when parameter 128 has been set for
ETR Trip and parameter 105 has been programmed to
the rated motor current (see motor nameplate).

note that a warning of low voltage will be given when
24 V DC has been connected; however, there will be
no tripping. If 24 V external DC supply is connected or
switched on at the same time as the mains supply, a
time of min. 200 msec. must be set in parameter 120
Start delay.
A pre-fuse of min. 6 Amp, slow-blow, can be fitted to
protect the external 24 V DC supply. The power consumption is 15-50 W, depending on the load on the
control card.
NB!
Use 24 V DC supply of type PELV to ensure correct galvanic isolation (type
PELV) on the control terminals of the frequency converter.

Electrical installation - EMC precautions
The following is a guideline to good engineering practice, when installing drives. Following these guidelines
is advised, where compliance with EN 61000-6-3, EN
61000-6-4, EN 55011 or EN 61800-3 First environ-
ment is required. If the installation is in EN 61800-3
Second environment, i.e. industrial networks or in an
installation that has its own transformer, it is acceptable to deviate from these guidelines. It is however not
recommended. See also CE labelling,Emission and
EMC test results under special conditions in the Design
Guide for further details.
Good engineering practice to ensure EMC-correct
electrical installation:
•Use only braided screened/armoured motor
cables and braided screened/armoured control cables. The screen should provide a minimum coverage of 80%. The screen material
must be metal, not limited to but typically copper, aluminium, steel or lead. There are no
special requirements for the mains cable.
•Installations using rigid metal conduits are
not required to use screened cable, but the
motor cable must be installed in conduit separate from the control and mains cables. Full
connection of the conduit from the drive to the
motor is required. The EMC performance of
flexible conduits varies a lot and information
from the manufacturer must be obtained.
•Connect the screen/armour/conduit to earth
at both ends for motor cables as well as for
control cables. In some cases, it is not possible to connect the screen in both ends. In
these cases, it is important to connect the
screen at the frequency converter. See also
Earthing of braided screened/armoured control cables.
•Avoid terminating the screen/armour with
twisted ends (pigtails). Such a termination increases the high frequency impedance of the
screen, which reduces its effectiveness at
high frequencies. Use low impedance cable
clamps or EMC cable glands instead.
•It is important to ensure good electrical contact between the mounting plate on which the
frequency converter is installed and the metal
chassis of the frequency converter. However,
this does not apply to IP 54 units as they are
designed for wall-mounting and VLT
5122-5552 380-500 V, 5042-5602 525-690 V
and VLT 5032-5052 200-240 V in IP20/
NEMA 1 enclosure and IP 54/NEMA 12 enclosure.
•Use starwashers and galvanically conductive
installation plates to secure good electrical
connections for IP00 and IP20 installations.
•Avoid using unscreened/unarmoured motor
or control cables inside cabinets housing the
drive(s), whenever this can be avoided.
•An uninterrupted high frequency connection
between the frequency converter and the
motor units is required for IP54 units.
The illustration shows an example of an EMC-correct
electrical installation of an IP 20 frequency converter;
the frequency converter has been fitted in an installation cabinet with an output contactor and connected to
a PLC, which in this example is installed in a separate
cabinet. In IP 54 units and VLT 5032-5052, 200-240 V
in IP20/IP21/NEMA 1 enclosure screened cables are
connected by using EMC conduits to ensure proper
EMC performance. See illustration. Other ways of
making the installation may have as good an EMC
performance, provided the above guide lines to engineering practice are followed.
Please note, that when the installation is not carried
through according to the guideline as well as when
unscreened cables and control wires are used, some
emission requirements are not complied with, although the immunity requirements are fulfilled. See the
section EMC test results in the Design Guide for further
details.

Use of emc-correct cables
Braided screened/armoured cables are recommended
to optimise EMC immunity of the control cables and
however, a screen with a lower transfer impedance
(Z
) value is more effective than a screen with a higher
T
transfer impedance (Z
the EMC emission from the motor cables.
The ability of a cable to reduce the in- and outgoing
radiation of electric noise depends on the transfer impedance (Z
). The screen of a cable is normally de-
T
signed to reduce the transfer of electric noise;

).
T
®
is a registered Danfoss trademark
VLT
®
5000 Design Guide
Transfer impedance (Z
) can be assessed on the basis
T
of the following factors:
The conductibility of the screen material.
-
The contact resistance between the individ-
-
ual screen conductors.
The screen coverage, i.e. the physical area
-
of the cable covered by the screen - often
stated as a percentage value.
Screen type, i.e. braided or twisted pattern.
-
Aluminium-clad with copper wire.
Twisted copper wire or armoured steel wire cable.
Single-layer braided copper wire with varying percentage
screen coverage.
This is the typical Danfoss reference cable.
Double-layer braided copper wire.
Twin layer of braided copper wire with a magnetic, screened/
armoured intermediate layer.
Cable that runs in copper tube or steel tube.
Electrical installation
Transfer impedance (ZT) is rarely stated by cable manufacturers, but it is often possible to estimate transfer
impedance (Z
) by assessing the physical design of

Electrical installation - earthing of control cables
Generally speaking, control cables must be braided
screened/armoured and the screen must be connected by means of a cable clampat both ends to the metal
cabinet of the unit.
The drawing below indicates how correct earthing is
carried out and what to be done if in doubt.
Correct earthing
Control cables and cables for serial communication
must be fitted with cable clamps at both ends to ensure
the best possible electrical contact
Wrong earthing
Do not use twisted cable ends (pigtails), since these
increase the screen impedance at high frequencies.
Protection with respect to earth potential between
PLC and VLT
If the earth potential between the frequency converter
and the PLC (etc.) is different, electric noise may occur
that will disturb the whole system. This problem can be
solved by fitting an equalising cable, to be placed next
to the control cable. Minimum cable cross-section: 16
2
.
mm
For 50/60 Hz earth loops
If very long control cables are used, 50/60 Hz earth
loops may occur. This problem can be solved by connecting one end of the screen to earth via a 100nF
capacitor (keeping leads short).
Cables for serial communication
Low-frequency noise currents between two frequency
converters can be eliminated by connecting one end
of the screen to terminal 61. This terminal is connected
to earth via an internal RC link. It is recommended to
use twisted-pair cables to reduce the differential mode
interference between the conductors.

RFI switch
Mains supply isolated from earth:
If the frequency converter is supplied from an isolated
mains source (IT mains) or TT/TN-S mains with grounded leg, the RFI switch is recommended to be turned
off (OFF)
case optimum EMC performance is needed, parallel
motors are connected or the motor cable length is
above 25 m, it is recommended to set the switch in ON
position.
In OFF position, the internal RFI capacities (filter capacitors) between the chassis and the intermediate
circuit are cut off to avoid damage to the intermediate
circuit and to reduce the earth capacity currents (according to IEC 61800-3).
Please also refer to the application note VLT on ITmains, MN.90.CX.02. It is important to use isolation
monitors that are capable for use together with power
electronics (IEC 61557-8).

Telegram Traffic
Control and response telegrams
Telegram traffic in a master-slave SYSTEM is controlled by the master. A maximum of 31 slaves can be
connected to a master, unless repeaters are used. If
repeaters are used, a maximum of 126 slaves can be
connected to a master.
The master constantly sends telegrams addressed to
the slaves and waits for response telegrams from
them. The slave's response time is a maximum of 50
ms.
Only a slave that has received an error-free telegram,
addressed to that slave can send a response telegram.
dress of the frequency converter (ADR). Then follows
a number of data bytes (variable, depending on the
type of telegram). The telegram is completed by a data
control byte (BCC).
Telegram timing
The communication speed between a master and a
slave depends on the baud rate. The frequency converter's baud rate must be the same as the master's
baud rate and be selected in parameter 501 Bau-drate.
After a response telegram from the slave, there must
be a pause of at least 2 characters (22 bits) before the
master can send a new telegram. At a baud rate of
9600 baud there must be a pause of at least 2.3 ms.
When the master has completed the telegram, the
slave's response time back to the master will be a
maximum of 20 ms, and there will be pause of at least
2 characters.
Broadcast
A master can send the same telegram simultaneously
to all slaves connected to the bus. During this broadcast communication the slave does not send any response telegrams back to the master as to whether the
telegram has been correctly received. Broadcast communication is set up in address format (ADR), see
Telegram structure.

Each character transferred begins with a start bit. Then
8 data bits are transferred, corresponding to a byte.
Each character is secured via a parity bit, which is set
at "1" when it reaches parity (i.e. when there is an equal
number of 1's in the 8 data bits and the parity bit in
total). A character is completed by a stop bit, thus consisting of 11 bits in all.
Pause time, min: 2 characters
Response time, min: 2 characters
Response time, max: 20 ms
The time between the individual characters in a telegram may not exceed 2 characters and the telegram
must be completed within 1.5 x nominal telegram time.
At a baud rate of 9600 baud and a telegram length of
16 bytes the telegram will be completed after 27.5
msec.
Telegram length (LGE)
The telegram length is the number of data bytes plus
the address byte ADR plus the data control byte BCC.
Telegram Structure
Each telegram begins with a start character (STX) =
02 Hex, followed by a byte that denotes the length of
the telegram (LGE) and a byte that denotes the ad-
84 MG.52.B2.02 - VLT
The length of telegrams with 4 data bytes is:
LGE = 4 + 1 + 1 = 6 bytes
The length of telegrams with 12 data bytes is:
LGE = 12 + 1 + 1 = 14 bytes

5000 Design Guide
The length of telegrams containing texts is 10+n bytes.
10 represents the fixed characters, while the 'n' is variable (depending on the length of the text).
Frequency converter address (ADR)
Two different address formats are used, with the frequency converter's address range being either 1-31 or
1-126.
1. Address format 1-31
The byte for address range 1-31 has the following pro-
file:
Bit 7 = 0 (address format 1-31 active)
Bit 6 is not used
Bit 5 = 1: Broadcast, address bits (0-4) are
not used
Bit 5 = 0: No Broadcast
Bit 0-4 = Frequency converter address 1-31
Data control byte (BCC)
The data control byte is explained in this example:
Before the first byte in the telegram is received, the
Calculated CheckSum (BCS) is 0.
When
the first byte (02H) has been received:
BCS = BCC EXOR “first byte”
(EXOR = exclusive-or)
BCS= 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (00 H)
EXOR
1. byte
BCC= 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 (02H)
= 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 (02H)
Each subsequent byte gates with BCS EXOR and produces a new BCC, e.g.:
2. Address format 1-126
The byte for address range 1 - 126 has the following
profile:
Bit 7 = 1 (address format 1-126 active)
Bit 0-6 = Frequency converter address 1-126
Bit 0-6 = 0 Broadcast
The slave sends the address byte back unchanged in
the response telegram to the master.
Example:
writing to frequency converter address 22 (16H) with
address format 1-31:
Data Character (byte)
The structure of data blocks depends on the type of
telegram. There are three types of telegram, and the
type of telegram applies for both control telegrams
(masterslave) and response telegrams (slavemaster).
The three types of telegram are:
Parameter block, used to transfer parame-
-
ters between master and slave. The data
block is made up of 12 bytes (6 words) and
also contains the process block.
The process block is made up of a data block
-
of four bytes (2 words) and contains:
Control word and reference value
-
Status word and present output fre-
-
quency (from slave to master)
Serial communication
MG.52.B2.02 - VLT
Text block, which is used to read or write texts

131Data change is not possible because
factory Setup is selected
Parameter number (PNU)
Bits no. 0-10 are used to transfer parameter numbers.
The relevant parameter's function is defined in the parameter description in the section entitled Program-ming.
Index
Index is
used together with the parameter number to read/
write-access parameters that have an index, e.g. parameter 615 Error code . The index is made up of 2
bytes, one lowbyte and one highbyte, but only the lowbyte is used as an index.
Example - Index:
The first error code (index [1]) in parameter 615 Errorcode must be read.
PKE = 1267 Hex (read parameter 615 Error code.)
IND = 0001 Hex - Index no. 1.
If the command cannot be performed the slave sends
this response: 0111 Command cannot be performed
and gives the following fault report in the parameter
value (PWE):
The frequency converter will respond in the parameter
value block (PWE) with a fault code value from 1 - 99.
See Summary of Warnings and Alarms to identify the
fault code.

Parameter value (PWE)
The parameter value block consists of 2 words (4 bytes), and
the value depends on the defined command (AK). If
the master prompts for a parameter value, the PWE
block does not contain a value.
If you wish the master to change a parameter value
(write), the new value is written in the PWE block and
sent to the slave.
If the slave responds to a parameter request (read
command), the present parameter value in the PWE
block is transferred and returned to the master.
If a parameter contains not a numerical value, but several data options, e.g. parameter 001 Language where
[0] corresponds to English , and [3] corresponds to
Danish, the data value is selected by entering the value
in the PWE block. See Example - Selecting a data val-ue.
Via serial communication it is only possible to read parameters that have data type 9 (text string). Parameter
621 - 635 Nameplate data is data type 9. For example,
in parameter 621 Unit type it is possible to read the unit
size and mains voltage range.
When a text string is transferred (read) the length of
the telegram is variable, as the texts are of different
lengths. The telegram length is defined in the telegram's second byte, known as LGE.
To be able to read a text via the PWE block the parameter command (AK) must be set to 'F' Hex.
Unsigned means that there is no operational sign in
the telegram.
Example - Write a parameter value:
Parameter 202 Output frequency high limit, f
MAX
to be
changed to 100 Hz. The value must be recalled after
a mains failure, so it is written in EEPROM.
PKE = E0CA Hex - Write for parameter 202

Serial communication
The index character is used to indicate whether it is a
read or write command.
In a read command the index must have the following
format:
Some frequency converters have parameters to which
a text may be written. To be able to write a text via the
PWE block the parameter command (AK) must be set
to 'F' Hex.
For a write command the text must have the following
format:
The response from the slave to the master will be:
Example - Selection of a data value:
You wish to select kg/hour [20] in parameter 416 Proc-ess units. The value must be recalled after a mains

number, a conversion factor must be used to transfer
decimals.
Example:
Parameter 201 Output frequency, low limit f
MIN
has a
conversion factor of 0.1. If you wish to preset the minimum frequency to 10 Hz, the value 100 must be
transferred, as a conversion factor of 0.1 means that
the value transferred is multiplied by 0.1. The value
100 will thus be perceived as 10.0.

Control Word According to FC Profile
To select FC protocol in the control word, parameter
512 Telegram Profile must be set to FC protocol [1].
The control word is used to send commands from a
master (e.g. a PC) to a slave (frequency converter).
Bit 00/01:
Bit 00/01 is used to select between the two pre-programmed references (parameters 215-218 Preset ref-erence) according to the following table:
Preset ref.ParameterBit 01Bit 00
121500
221601
321710
421811
NB!
In parameter 508 Selection of preset reference a selection is made to define how
Bit 00/01 gates with the corresponding
function on the digital inputs.
Bit 02, DC brake:
Bit 02 = '0' leads to DC braking and stop. Braking current and duration are set in parameters 125 and 126.
Bit 02 = '1' leads to ramping.
Bit 03, Coasting stop:
Bit 03 = '0' causes the frequency converter to immediately "let go" of the motor (the output transistors are
"shut off"), so that it coasts to a standstill.
Bit 03 = '1' causes the frequency converter to be able
start the motor if the other starting conditions have
been fulfilled. Note: In parameter 502 Coasting stop a
selection is made to define how Bit 03 gates with the
corresponding function on a digital input.
Bit 04, Quick stop:
Bit 04 = '0' causes a stop, in which the motor's speed
is ramped down to stop via parameter 212 Quick stopramp-down time.
Bit 05, Freeze output frequency:
Bit 05 = '0' causes the present output frequency (in Hz)
to freeze. The frozen output frequency can now only
be changed by means of the digital inputs programmed to Speed up and Speed down.
NB!
If Freeze output is active, the frequency
converter cannot be stopped via Bit 06
Start or via a digital input. The frequency
converter can only be stopped by the following:
•Bit 03 Coasting stop
•Bit 02 DC braking
•
Digital input programmed to DC
braking, Coasting stop or Reset
and coasting stop.

is ramped down to stop via the selected ramp down
parameter.
Bit 06 = '1' causes the frequency converter to be able
to start the motor, if the other starting conditions have
been fulfilled. Note: In parameter 505 Start a selection
is made to define how Bit 06 Ramp stop/start gates
with the corresponding function on a digital input.
Bit 07, Reset:
Bit 07 = '0' does not cause a reset.
Bit 07 = '1' causes the reset of a trip. Reset is activated
on the signal's leading edge, i.e. when changing from
logic '0' to logic '1'.
Bit 08, Jog:
Bit 08 = '1' causes the output frequency to be determined by parameter 213 Jog frequency.
Bit 09, Selection of ramp 1/2:
Bit 09 = “0” means that ramp 1 is active (parameters
207/208). Bit 09 = “1” means that ramp 2 (parameters
209/210) is active.
Bit 10, Data not valid/Data valid:
Is used to tell the frequency converter whether the
control word is to be used or ignored. Bit 10 = '0' causes the control word to be ignored, Bit 10 = '1' causes
the control word to be used. This function is relevant,
because the control word is always contained in the
telegram, regardless of which type of telegram is used,
i.e. it is possible to turn off the control word if you do
not wish to use it in connection with updating or reading
parameters.
Bit 11, Relay 01:
Bit 11 = "0" Relay not activated.
Bit 11 = "1" Relay 01 activated, provided Control wordbit has been chosen in parameter 323.
Bit 12, Relay 04:
Bit 12 = "0" Relay 04 has not been activated.
Bit 12 = "1" Relay 04 has been activated, provided
Control word bit has been chosen in parameter 326.

The function is only possible when Multi-Setups is selected in parameter 004 Active Setup .
Note: I parameter 507 Selection of Setup a selection is
made to define how Bit 13/14 gates with the corresponding function on the digital inputs.
Bit 15 Reversing:
Bit 15 = '0' causes no reversing.
Bit 15 = '1' causes reversing.
Note: In the factory setting reversing is set to digital in
parameter 506 Reversing. Bit 15 only causes reversing
when either Ser. communication, Logic or or Logicand is selected.

Example - Control word and serial communication ref.:
The frequency converter is to receive a start command
and the reference is to be set to 50% (2000 Hex) of the

Control word = 047F Hex ⇒ Start command.
Reference = 2000 Hex ⇒ 50% reference.
The frequency converter is to receive a start command
and the reference is to be set to -50% (-2000 Hex) of
the reference range.
The reference value is first converted to 1' complement, and then 1 is added binarily to obtain 2' complement:
Control word = 047F Hex ⇒ Start command.

Read parameter description elements
With Read Parameter Description Elements it is possible to read the characteristics of a parameter which
could be eg. Name, Default value, conversion, etc.
The table below shows the available parameter description elements:
IndexDescription
1Basic characteristics
2No of elements (array types)
4Unit of measure
6Name
7Lower limit
8Upper limit
20Default value
21Additional characteristics
In the following example Read Parameter DescriptionElements is chosen on parameter 001, Language, and
the requested element is index 1 Basic characteris-tics.
stxlgeadrpcd 1pcd 2bcc
0206040607000001
All numbers are in hex format.
Basic characteristics return a 16 bit value to the master
in PWE
LOW
.
The basic behaviour indicates whether eg. text is available or the parameter is an array as single bit information in the high byte of PWE
LOW
.
The datatype part indicates if a parameter is signed 16,
unsigned 32 in the low byte of PWE
LOW
.
Serial communication
Basis characteristics (index 1):
The Basic characteristics command is split up in two
parts representing basic behaviour and datatype. The

PWE high basic behaviour:
BitDescription

14Array
13Parameter value can only be reset
12Parameter value different from factory setting
11Text available
10Additional text available
9Read only
8Upper and lower limit not relevant
0-7Data type
Active parameter is only active when communicating
through Profibus.
Array means that the parameter is an array.
If bit 13 is true, the parameter can only be reset, not
written to.
If bit 12 is true, the parameter value is different from
the factory setting.
Bit 11 indicates that text is available.
Example
Bit 10 indicates that additional text is available. Eg.
parameter 001, Language, contains text for index field
0, English, and for index field 1, German.
If bit 9 is true, the parameter value is read-only and
cannot be changed.
If bit 8 is true, upper and lower limits of the parameter
value are not relevant.
In this example, the master reads the Basic characteristics of parameter 001, Language. The following
telegram must be sent to the frequency converter:
1, Danfoss format
4001; 4 in the PKE field indicates a ReadParameter Description and 01 indicates parameter number 001, Language
0001; 1 indicates that Basic characteristics
are required.
Basic characteristics are sent
bit 10 corresponds to Additional text. 05 is the
datatype which corresponds to Unsigned 8.

No of elements (index 2):
This function indicates the Number of elements (array)
of a parameter. The answer to the master will be in

Conversion and Unit of measurement (index 4):
The Conversion and unit of measurement command
indicates the conversion of a parameter and the unit of
measurement. The answer to the master will be in

. The conversion index will be in the high byte
LOW
and the unit index will be in the low byte of
LOW
. Note that conversion index is signed 8 and
LOW
unit index is unsigned 8, see tables below.
The unit index defines the “Unit of measure”. The conversion index defines how the value should be scaled
to get the basic representation of the “Unit of measure”. Basic representation is where conversion index
equals “0”.
Example:
A parameter has a “unit index” of 9 and a “conversion
index” of 2. The raw (integer) value read is 23. This
means that we have a parameter of the unit “Power”
and the raw value should be multiplied by 10 to the
power of 2 and the unit is W. 23 x 102 = 2300 W

The parameter value channel is now set up to a visible
string which returns an ASCII character for each letter
in the parameter name.
Lower limit (index 7):
The Lower limit returns the minimum allowed value of
a parameter. The data type of Lower limit is the same
as for the parameter itself.
Upper limit (index 8):
The Upper limit returns the maximum allowed value of
a parameter. The data type of Upper limit is the same
is for the parameter itself.
In this example the master reads the name of parameter 001, Language.
The following telegram must be sent to the frequency
converter:
HIGH

PCD1PCD2BCC
The response from the frequency converter will be:
If one of bit 0 Special Default Value, bit 1 Special UpperLimit and bit 2 Special Lower Limit are true, the parameter has power unit depending values.
Bit 7 and 8 indicates the attributes for the LCP access,
see table.
Bit 8Bit 7Description
00No access
01Read only
10Read/write
11Write with lock
Bit 9 indicates No bus Access.
Bits 10 and 11 indicates that this parameter can only
be read over the bus.
If bit 13 is true, the parameter cannot be changed while
running.
If bit 15 is true, the parameter is depending on the
power unit.
Default value (index 20):
The Default value returns the default value of a parameter, which is the factory setting. The data type of
Default value is the same as for the parameter itself.
Additional characteristics (index 21):
The command can be used for getting some additional
information on a parameter, eg. No bus Access, PowerUnit dependency, etc.. The Additional characteristics
returns an answer in PWE
