3.5 Serial Number Label

All X4 AC drives are warranted for three years from date of manufacture, or two years from the date of installation, whichever comes first. For a more detailed description of the warranty policy, visit our web site at http://www.vacon.com. To determine if your drive is within the warranty time frame, find the bar code label or look in the lower left of the technical nameplate. The serial number can be broken down as follows:
yywwxxxx = yy...year of manufacture
ww...week of manufacture
xxxx...sequential number drive during that week

3.6 Conduit Usage

The X4 drive in the NEMA 4X / IP66 enclosure is rated for 1000 psi washdown from 6 inches. To keep this rating, the use of a sealed conduit is required. The use of a Romex-type conduit will not prevent water entry into the enclosure. If the approved conduit is not used, all warranty claims against water damage will be void.

3.7 Condensation

The washdown process of an X4 drive may create a temperature and humidity change in and around the drive. If the unit is mounted in a cool environment and washed down with higher-temperature water, as the drive cools to room temperature, condensation can form inside the drive, especially around the display. To prevent this from happening, avoid using sealed connectors around rubber­coated cables to seal the drive. These do not allow any air transfer and hence create a level of condensation and humidity that exceeds the drive’s rating.

X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 4: Connections

4.1 Introduction

This chapter provides information on connecting power and control wiring to the X4 AC drive.

4.2 General Wiring Information

4.2.1 Wiring Practices

When making power and control connections, observe these precautions:
Never connect input AC power to the motor output terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W. Damage to the drive will result.
Power wiring to the motor must have the maximum possible separation from all other power wiring. Do not run in the same conduit; this separation reduces the possibility of coupling electrical noise between circuits.
Cross conduits at right angles whenever power and control wiring cross.
Good wiring practice also requires separation of control circuit wiring from all power wiring. Since power delivered from the drive contains high frequencies which may cause interference with other equipment, do not run control wires in the same conduit or raceway with power or motor wiring.

4.2.2 Considerations for Power Wiring

Power wiring refers to the line and load connections made to terminals L1/R, L2/S, L3/T, and T1/U, T2/V, T3/W respectively. Select power wiring using these guidelines:
Use only UL-recognized wire.
Wire voltage rating must be a minimum of 300 V for 230 Vac systems and 600 V (Class 1 wire) for 460 or 575 Vac systems.
Wire gauge must be selected based on 125% of the continuous input current rating of the drive. Wire gauge must be selected from wire tables for 75 °C insulation rating, and must be of copper construction. The 230 V 7.5 and 15 HP models, and the 460 V 30 HP models require 90 °C wire to meet UL requirements. See Chapter 2 for the continuous output ratings for the drive.
Grounding must be in accordance with NEC and CEC. If multiple X4 drives are installed near each other, each must be connected to ground. Take care not to form a ground loop.
See Table 4-1 on page 26 and Table 4-2 on page 26 for information on power terminal wiring specifications.

4.2.3 Considerations for Control Wiring

Control wiring refers to the wires connected to the control terminal strip. Select control wiring as follows:
Shielded wire is recommended to prevent electrical noise interference from causing improper operation or nuisance tripping.
Use only UL recognized wire.
Wire voltage rating must be at least 300 V for 230 Vac systems. It must be at least 600 V for 460 or 575 Vac systems.
See Table 4-3 below for a summary of control terminal wiring specifications.

4.3 Input Line Requirements

4.3.1 Line Voltage

See “Power and Current Ratings” on page 12 for the allowable fluctuation of AC line voltage for your particular X4 model. A supply voltage above or below the limits given in the table will cause the drive to trip with either an overvoltage or undervoltage fault.
Exercise caution when applying the X4 AC drive on low-line conditions.
For example, an X4 2000 series unit will operate properly on a 208 Vac line, but the maximum output voltage will be limited to 208 Vac. If a motor rated for 230 Vac line voltage is controlled by this drive, higher motor currents and increased heating will result.
Therefore, ensure that the voltage rating of the motor matches the applied line voltage.

4.3.2 Line Capacity

If the source of AC power to the X4 AC drive is greater than 10 times the kVA rating shown in Ta ble
4-4 below, an isolation transformer or line reactor is recommended. Consult the factory for
assistance in sizing the reactor.
Table 4-4: X4 Line Capacity (kVA)
Drive HP 12357.51015202530405060 75 100125150200
Transformer kVA
Note: X4 AC drive devices are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 65,000 rms symmetrical amperes at 10% above the maximum rated voltage.
2459131823283642577090112150180220250

4.3.3 Phase Imbalance

Phase voltage imbalance of the input AC source can cause unbalanced currents and excessive heat in the drive’s input rectifier diodes and DC bus capacitors. Phase imbalance can also damage motors running directly across the line. The phase imbalance should not exceed 2% of the voltage rating.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Never use power-factor correction capacitors on motor terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W of the X4 AC drive. Doing so will damage the semiconductors.
Failure to follow this instruction can result in injury or equipment damage.
ATTENTION
RISQUE DE DOMMAGES MATÉRIELS
Ne raccordez jamais de condensateurs de correction du facteur de puissance aux bornes T1/U, T2/V, ou T3/W du moteur du variateur de vitesse X4. Car cela endommagera les semiconducteurs.
Si cette directive n’est pas respectée, cela peut entraîner des blessures corporelles ou des dommages matériels.
DPD00088A - 27 - © 2009 Vacon Incorporated All Rights Reserved
X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 4: Connections

4.3.4 Single-phase Operation

X4 AC drive 230 Vac models ranging from 1 to 5 HP are designed for both three-phase and single­phase input power. If one of these models is operated with single-phase power, use any two line input terminals. The output of the device will always be three-phase.
The safe derating of the X4 series of drives is 50% of the nominal current (HP) rating. Consult the factory with the particular application details for exact derating by model.

4.3.5 Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters

X4 drives rated for 115 Vac are not designed to operate with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI). The GFCI breakers are designed for residential use to protect personnel from stray currents to ground. Most GFCI breakers will shut off at 5 mA of leakage. It is not uncommon for an AC drive to have 30 to 60 mA of leakage.

4.3.6 Motor Lead Length

Vacon, Inc. recommends that the total lead length should not exceed the motor manufacturer’s guidelines. Line disturbance and noise can be present in motor wiring of any distance. As a rule of thumb, any non-inverter duty motor should have a reactor or filter added when the motor lead length exceeds 150 feet. The carrier frequency for the drive should also be reduced using parameter 803
(PWM Frequency).
Nuisance trips can occur due to capacitive current flow to ground. These currents can cause shock to personnel and can create problems within the motor. Care should be taken when working in these areas.
Some applications can have a restricted lead length because of type of wire, motor type, or wiring placement. Consult the factory and the motor manufacturer for additional information.

4.3.7 Using Output Contactors

Contactors in the output wiring of an AC drive may be needed as part of the approved safety circuit. Problems can arise if these contactors are opened for the safety circuit and the drive is left in run mode of operation. When the contactor is open, the drive is in a no-load, no-resistance state, but is still trying to supply current to the motor. However, when the contactor closes, the drive sees the motor resistance and instantly demands current. This inrush of current when the contactor closes can fault or cause failure to the drive.
To prevent problems, interlock an auxiliary contact to the drive’s Run or Enable circuit to stop the drive when the contactor opens. In this way, the drive will be disabled and no inrush will occur when the contactor is closed again.

Note that earth ground is on the terminal strip (see Figure 4-1 below). Dynamic brake (DB) connections are not on the terminal strip, but on “fast on” (spade) connectors for models up to 30 HP, and on the terminal strip for models 40 HP and larger. See page 32 for specific information about dynamic braking.
These terminals are the line connections for input power. (Single-phase 115 and 230 Vac, 1 to 5 HP models connect to any two of these terminals.)
These terminals are for motor connections.

X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 4: Connections
Figure 4-2: Power Terminals on Higher-HP Models

4.4.2 Typical Power Connections

See Section 4.3 starting on page 27 for input line requirements.
Note that when testing for a ground fault, do not short any motor lead (T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W) back to an input phase (L1/R, L2/S, or L3/T).
It is necessary to provide fuses and a disconnect switch for the input AC line in accordance with all applicable electrical codes. The X4 AC drive is able to withstand a 150% overload for 60 seconds for heavy duty rating, and 120% overload for normal duty rating.
The fusing and input protection of the drive must always meet UL, NEC (National Electric Code), and CEC (Canadian Electric Code) requirements. All fuse ratings included in Table 4 -6 below are for reference only and do not supersede code requirements. The recommended supplier is Bussman.

X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 4: Connections

4.5 Dynamic Braking

The X4 AC drive is supplied with an integrated dynamic braking (DB) resistor, and is designed to have adequate dynamic braking for most applications. In cases where short stopping times or high inertia loads require additional braking capacity, install an external resistor.
Note: External braking cannot be added to Size 0 models. For Size 4 (60-100 HP) and Size 5 (125­200 HP) models, additional external dynamic braking requires a kit that provides the connections to the braking transistors. The XDBKITS4 and XDBKITS5 kits can be purchased through local distributors. Frame Sizes 3 - 5 have both the DC positive and negative bus terminals available, making the drive compatible with either an external resistor or a combination resistor / chopper type of dynamic braking kit.
If an external resistor is used for dynamic braking (not applicable for Size 0 models), the internal resistor must be disconnected. Internal DB resistors are connected with fast-on terminals. To install an external resistor, first disconnect the internal DB resistor (or resistors in 460 and 575 Vac models) and properly terminate the wires leading to it. Then connect the external resistor fast-on terminals where the internal resistor had been connected.
Changes to parameter 410 (DB Config) must be made when using external DB resistors.
Verify with the manufacturer of the selected resistor that the resistor is appropriate for your application. Contact Vacon’s Electronic Application Engineering (see inside front cover of this
manual) for further assistance with other possible sizing limitations.
Refer to Table 4-7 on page 32 for information about dynamic braking capacity for each X4 model.

4.6 Terminals Found on the X4 Control Board

4.6.1 Description of the Control Terminals

Figure 4-3 shows the control terminals found on the I/O board of the X4 AC drive. See page 14 for specifications. Table 4-8 on page 35 describes the control terminals.
The drive’s control terminals are referenced to earth ground through a resistor / capacitor network. Use caution when connecting analog signals not referenced to earth ground, especially if the communications port (J3) is being used. The J3 port includes a common reference that can be connected to earth ground through the host PLC or computer.

4.7 Reducing Current Surges and Voltage Transients

Inrush currents to coils of magnetic contactors, relays, and solenoids associated with or near the drive can induce high current spikes in the power and control wiring, causing faulty operation. If this occurs, a snubber network consisting of a series resistor and capacitor for AC loads, or a free­wheeling or flyback diode for DC loads, can be placed across the relay coil to prevent this condition. The following component values should be used for 115 VAC or 230 VAC relays or solenoids.

Chapter 5: Keypad Operation and Programming

5.1 Introduction

The X4 AC drive is pre-programmed to run a standard, 4-pole AC induction motor. For many applications, the drive is ready for use right out of the box with no additional programming needed. The digital keypad controls all operations of the unit. The ten input keys allow “press and run” operation of the motor (Operation mode) and straightforward programming of the parameters (Program mode)..
Figure 5-1: The X4 Keypad
To simplify programming, the parameters are grouped into three levels:
1. Enter Level 1 by pressing the Program (PROG) key at any time. Level 1 allows you to access the most commonly used parameters.
2. Enter Level 2 by holding down the SHIFT key while pressing the PROG key. Level 2 allows
access to all X4 parameters, including those in Level 1, for applications which require more advanced features.
3. Enter Macro mode by holding the Program (PROG) key down for more than 3 seconds. The
display then shows “Hold PROG for Macro Mode.” See Chapter 6, “Using Macro Mode,”
starting on page 49, for more information.
The summary of parameters found before the Table of Contents notes whether a parameter is in Level 1. “Chapter 7: X4 Parameters” on page 59 gives full information about what level a parameter is in.
Note that all parameters can be addressed by adding 40000 to the parameter number. For example, parameter 201 (Input Mode) can be addressed by Modbus address 40201.
Want to get started quickly? See the “Quick Start” section on page 58.

X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 5: Programming with the X4 Keypad

5.2 Keypad Operation

Parameter 201, Input Mode (see page 62), determines whether the X4 AC drive accepts its Run/ Stop and speed commands from the digital keypad or from the input terminals. Table 5-1 describes the function of the keys in Operation mode.
Table 5-1: Function of Keys in Operation Mode (X4 Running or Stopped)
Initiates forward run when pressed momentarily. If the drive is running in reverse when FWD is pressed, it will decelerate to zero speed, change direction, and accelerate to the set speed. The green FWD designation in the key illuminates whenever a FWD command has been given. When both the FWD and REV lights are on, the DC braking function is active.
Initiates reverse run when pressed momentarily. If the drive is running in forward when REV is pressed, it will decelerate to zero speed, change direction, and accelerate to the set speed. The green REV in the key illuminates whenever a REV command has been issued. When both the FWD and REV lights are on, the DC braking function is active.
Causes a Ramp-to-Stop when pressed. Programmable to Coast-to-Stop by parameter 401,
Ramp Select (page 66). The red STOP indicator in the key illuminates whenever a STOP
command has been given. If the drive has stopped because of a fault, this indicator flashes to call attention to the display. The STOP key also functions as a fault RESET key.
Press the JOG key to enter Jog mode. The green JOG indicator in the key illuminates when the drive is in the JOG mode of operation. To jog the motor in either direction, press either the
FWD or REV (if REV is enabled in parameter 202). The motor will operate at the speed
programmed in parameter 303. To exit Jog mode, press the JOG key again.
When the drive is stopped, pressing this key increases the desired running speed. When the drive is running, pressing this key increases the actual running speed in 0.1 Hz increments. Holding the SHIFT key while pressing the INC (UP arrow) key moves the decimal place to the left with each press (0.1 Hz, 1.0 Hz, 10.0 Hz increments).
When the drive is stopped, pressing this key decreases the desired running speed. When the drive is running, pressing the DEC (down arrow) key decreases the actual running speed in
0.1 Hz increments. Holding the SHIFT key while pressing the DEC key moves the decimal place to the right with each press (10.0 Hz, 1.0 Hz, 0.1 Hz increments).
NOTE: The operating speed for the drive is stored on Power Down.
Pressing this key while a parameter is displayed allows that parameter to have its value changed by use of the INC and DEC (up and down arrow) keys. The P indicator flashes to show that the parameter can be programmed. See also the descriptions for the INC and DEC
keys to see how they work with the SHIFT key.
The ENTER key has no function when the drive is running or stopped. ENTER can be used to store the speed command so that it is saved through a power-down. To enable this function, see the description for parameter 802 (Start Options) on page 78.
Whether the drive is running or stopped, pressing this key places the drive in Program mode. See Table 5-2 on page 42 for more information on how this key functions.
Pressing this key toggles drive control between the LOCal and REMote control modes, as selected by parameter 201 (Input Mode). It can be configured to shift:
• the Run/Stop command (either FWD or REV)
• the speed reference signal
• both of the above
It can also be set to “disabled,” which is the factory setting. It will operate either in Stop mode or while the drive is running. If power is removed and reapplied, the memory will retain the last selected function.

X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 5: Programming with the X4 Keypad
You can access Program mode by stopping the X4 drive and pressing the Program (PROG) key for Level 1 access; or holding down SHIFT while pressing PROG for Level 2 access. Pressing and holding the Enter key and then pressing the Program key will show only those parameters that have been changed from the factory defaults. Table 5-2 describes the function of the keys in Program mode.
Table 5-2: Function of Keys in Program Mode
Press this key to have the drive enter Program mode and have Level 1 parameters available. (To access Level 2 parameters, hold down SHIFT while pressing this key; to access Macro mode, hold down the PROG key for more than 3 seconds.) Once Program mode is active, pressing this key at any time returns the drive to the Operation mode. If an Access Code has been programmed, it must be entered to proceed with programming. See Parameter
NOTE: To see what parameters have changed from the factory default, press ENTER + PROG. If the display flashes “Factory Defaults,” no parameters have changed.
In the Program mode, pressing this key scrolls forward through the parameters. If the P indicator is flashing, it increases the value of the parameter. To change the scroll rate, hold the SHIFT key at the same time to increase the scroll rate; release the SHIFT key to return to the normal scroll rate. Press the ENTER key to store the new value.
In the Program mode, pressing this key scrolls backward through the parameters. If the P indicator is flashing, it decreases the value of the parameter. To change the scroll rate, hold the SHIFT key at the same time to increase the scroll rate; release the SHIFT key to return to the normal scroll rate. Press the ENTER key to store the new value.
NOTE: If the P indicator on the keypad display is flashing, momentarily pressing and releasing both the INC and DEC keys at the same time restores the parameter to the factory default value. Press ENTER to store the new value.
Pressing this key while a parameter is displayed allows that parameter to have its value changed by use of the INC and DEC (up and down arrow) keys. The P indicator flashes to show that the parameter can be programmed. See also the descriptions for the INC and DEC keys to see how they work with the SHIFT key.
811 (Access Code) (page 79).
This key must be pressed after the value of a parameter has been changed to store the new value. The display will show “stored” for one second indicating that the new value has been entered into memory.
NOTE: The X4 unit allows you to view only those parameters that have changed. If you press keypad keys ENTER and PROGram simultaneously, only those parameters that have been changed from the factory defaults will be shown.
Table 5-3: Function of Keys in Fault Mode
In Fault mode, pressing the INC (up arrow) and DEC (down arrow) keys allows the operator to view the drive’s status immediately before the fault occurred. Use the INC or DEC keys to scroll through the status parameters. Press the STOP (Reset) key to return to normal operation.
See “Chapter 8: Troubleshooting” on page 93 for information about viewing Advanced Fault Codes and understanding error codes.
The red STOP key functions as a reset button when in Fault mode. If the drive has stopped because of a fault, this light flashes to call attention to the display.

5.5 Programming

5.5.1 Accessing Parameters

When PROG (or SHIFT+PROG) is pressed after application of power or a fault reset, parameter 201, Input Mode, is always the first parameter displayed. Figure 5-3 shows a typical programming
display.
Figure 5-3: Typical Programming Display
If a different parameter is accessed and Program mode is exited, that parameter is the first one displayed the next time Program mode is entered. The drive remembers a different “last parameter accessed” for Levels 1 and 2.

5.5.2 Changing the Display Scroll Rate

Pressing the INC or DEC keys (up or down arrows) causes the display to scroll at a slow rate. To increase the scroll rate, hold the SHIFT key at the same time that you press the INC key. Release the SHIFT key to return to the slow scroll rate. This procedure works in all programming and operation modes.

5.5.3 Programming Procedure

To program the value of a parameter, follow these steps:
1. Press the Program (PROG) key to enter Level 1 Program mode. To enter Level 2, press SHIFT+PROG. The P indicator will appear on the display. You must enter one level of programming or the other; you cannot switch between levels without exiting Program mode.
Note that some parameters cannot be changed in Run mode. For example, if you wish to program
parameter 201, Input Mode, you must stop the drive before beginning programming. Refer to the Parameter Summary Table at the front of this manual to see which parameters cannot be changed in
Run mode (they appear as shaded entries in the table).
2. Press the INC or DEC keys to access the desired parameter.
3. Press the SHIFT key to allow the value to be changed. The P indicator starts to blink.
4. Press the INC or DEC keys to select the new value.

5.5.4 Restoring Factory Settings

Whenever a parameter’s value is being changed (noted by the P indicator flashing), the original factory setting for that parameter may be restored by pressing and releasing both the INC and DEC keys simultaneously and then pressing the ENTER key.
To restore ALL parameters to factory settings, or to recall a previously stored parameter set, see
parameter 801, Program Number (page 77).

5.5.5 Viewing Parameters That Have Changed

The X4 unit allows you to view only those parameters that have changed. If you press the ENTER and PROG keys simultaneously, only those parameters that have been changed from the factory defaults will be shown. Note that all parameters, regardless of Level 1 or 2 default location, will be shown. If other parameters need to be changed, press the PROG key to exit this mode in either Level 1 or 2, as needed.

5.5.6 Using Macro Mode

A special Macro programming mode is available with the X4 series of AC drives. The Macro programming mode allows you to customize the most common parameters for your application in the Level 1 group. Macro mode provides special parameters for activating modes of operation by macros, program sequencer, or serial communications.
Parameters that are important to the drive’s operation are also included in the Macro mode. Although these parameters are also available with standard programming, the Macro mode allows you to quickly and easily configure the drive with essential parameters.
See “Chapter 6: Using Macro Mode and Getting a Quick Start” on page 49, for detailed information about using macros to program the X4 drive.

5.6 Measuring Stator Resistance (RS Measurement)

5.6.1 Activating Automatic RS Measurement Using the Keypad

1. Make sure there is no load applied to the motor and that the motor shaft is free to spin without
damage or injury.
2. Enter the Macro programming mode of the X4 keypad by pressing and holding the PROG
key until the parameter “Appl Macro” appears on the keypad. This takes about two seconds.
3. Scroll through the parameters of the X4 Macro programming mode and configure the
following parameters to the data provided on the nameplate of the motor:
• Rated Volt (509)
• Rated Mtr FLA (510)
• Rated Mtr RPM (511)
• Power Factor (515)
4. Change parameter “Find Mtr Data” (parameter 519) to a value of “Motor RS.” At this point,
the RS Measurement will be armed.
5. Exit the Macro programming mode by pressing the PROG key.
6. The Operate screen shows in two ways that an RS Measurement is ready to be made. First,
the Control path status field displays “MEA.” Second, a “Mtr Measure” warning flashes, both of these signifying that a measurement is about to be taken.
DPD00088A - 47 - © 2009 Vacon Incorporated All Rights Reserved
X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 5: Programming with the X4 Keypad
7. Start the RS Measurement by pressing the FWD key. The measurement can only be made
with the FWD key. The FWD / REV terminals and the REV key will not work.
8. The measurement will begin as the drive injects voltage to the motor at zero frequency. The
test lasts about two seconds.
9. If the test was successful, the drive will stop and return to the configured control path. The
“Motor RS” parameter will contain a new value that is the calculated resistance of the motor.
10. If the test was not successful, the drive will fault with a “RS Meas. Fail” message (Fault 34).
If the test fails, you may want to try the test again with a different “Rated Mtr FLA” or different Current Limit percentage.
11. If the measurement process fails for any reason, it is possible to physically measure motor
resistance by using an ohmmeter and dividing the result by 2. Then enter this value manually into parameter 514 (Motor RS).

5.6.2 Activating Automatic RS Measurement via Serial Link (Modbus)

1. Make sure there is no load applied to the motor and that the motor shaft is free to spin without
damage or injury.
2. Configure the following parameters to the data provided on the nameplate of the motor:
• Rated Volt (509)
• Rated Mtr FLA (510)
• Rated Mtr RPM (511)
• Power Factor (515)
3. Change parameter “Find Mtr Data” (519) to a value of “Motor RS.” At this point, the RS
Measurement will be armed.
4. Start the RS Measurement by writing a value of 0x0007 to parameter “SIO Cntl Word” (904).
5. The measurement begins as the drive injects voltage to the motor at zero frequency. The test
lasts about two seconds.
6. If the test was successful, the drive will stop and return to the configured control path. The
“Motor RS” parameter will contain a new value that is the calculated resistance of the motor.
7. If the test was not successful, the drive will fault with a “RS Meas. Fail” message (Fault 34).
If the test fails, you may want to try the test again with a different “Rated Mtr FLA” or different Current Limit percentage.
8. If the measurement process fails for any reason, it is possible to physically measure motor
resistance by using an ohmmeter and dividing the result by 2. Then enter this value manually into parameter 514 (Motor RS).

Chapter 6: Using Macro Mode and Getting a Quick Start

A special Macro programming mode is available with the X4 series of AC drives. The Macro programming mode allows you to customize quickly the most common parameters for your application in the Level 1 group. Macro mode provides special parameters for activating modes of operation by macros, program sequencer, or serial communications.
Parameters important to the drive’s operation are also included in Macro mode. Although these parameters are also available with standard programming, the Macro mode allows you to easily configure the drive with essential parameters.
Macros configure what advanced functions will be active in the drive. A macro can also change the default or visibility of a parameter within the programming levels. Parameter 490 (Appl Macro) configures what macro will be active in the drive. Parameter 491 (Seq Appl) configures the visibility of sequencer parameters and the time base of the sequencer. Parameter 492 (SIO Visible) configures whether or not SIO parameters are visible. (See page 50.)
Note that all parameters can be addressed by adding 40000 to the parameter number. For example, parameter 201 (Input Mode) can be addressed by Modbus address 40201.

6.1 Entering Macro Mode

To enter the Macro mode, press and hold the PROGram key for more than three seconds. The drive then enters Macro mode and displays “Hold PROG for Macro Mode.” Following is a list of the different macros available and their features. A description of parameters used in Macro mode begins on page 50.
Factory The Factory macro provides a simple way to restore the factory default parameter listings. Fan The Fan macro provides a basic set-up for Fan applications. Parameters such as the V/Hz curve
and terminal strip operation are available in Level 1 programming.
Fan w/ PI The Fan w/ PI macro allows for a simple set-up for Fan applications requiring process control.
Parameters such as the V/Hz curve, terminal strip operation, and PI configuration parameters are available in Level 1 programming.
Pump The Pump macro provides a basic set-up for Pump applications. Parameters such as the V/Hz
curve and terminal strip operation are available in Level 1 programming.
Pump w/ PI The Pump w/ PI macro allows for a simple set-up for Pump applications requiring process
control. Parameters such as the V/Hz curve, terminal strip operation, and PI configuration parameters are available in Level 1 programming.
Vector The Vector macro activates the sensorless vector control algorithm. When an operation
requires low speed and high torque, this macro should be activated.

6.4 Quick Start

The following procedure is for operators using simple applications, who would like to get started quickly. Be sure to read and understand all the sections in this chapter before proceeding with these
instructions. If you are using remote operators, substitute the speed potentiometer for the INC and DEC keys (up and down arrows), and the remote Run/Stop switch for the FWD key in the following
instructions.
CAUTION
IMPROPER EQUIPMENT COORDINATION
Verify that proper voltage is connected to the drive before applying power.
Failure to observe this instruction can result in injury or equipment damage.
ATTENTION
MAUVAISE COORDINATION DES APPAREILS
Vérifiez que l’onduleur est raccordée à la bonne tension avant de le mettre sous tension.
Si cette directive n’est pas respectée, cela peut entraîner des blessures corporelles ou des dommages matériels.
1. Follow all precautions and procedures in “Chapter 3: Receiving and Installation” on page 20.
2. Find the motor nameplate, and using parameters 509 (Rated Mtr Volt), 510 (Rated Mtr FLA), 511
(Rated Mtr RPM), and 515 (Power Factor), set up the motor parameters appropriately. Parameter 514 (Motor RS) should also be set up accurately so the drive can run its routine to measure motor stator
resistance. (See “Measuring Stator Resistance (RS Measurement)” on page 47.)
3. Apply AC power to the input terminals. For about 2 seconds the display will show all segments active. The display then changes to zeros.
4. The factory settings are for keypad-only operation in the forward direction—that is, the REV key is disabled. Press the FWD key, which causes the FWD indicator to illuminate.
5. Press the INC key to increase the desired running frequency. When the display gets to 0.1 Hz, the drive starts to produce an output.
6. When the motor starts to turn, check the rotation. If the motor is turning in the wrong direction, press STOP, remove AC power, and wait for all indicators to go out. After the STATUS indicator has gone out, reverse any two of the motor leads at T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W.
7. The X4 drive is preset to run a typical NEMA B 4-pole induction motor to a maximum speed of 60.0 Hz with both acceleration and deceleration times set to 5.0 seconds.
8. Use the INC and DEC keys to set the proper running speed of the motor and the FWD and STOP keys to control its operation.
Note that the X4 external cooling fans operate continuously for the first five minutes of power-up time; after this point, they operate only as needed to control the operating temperature of the drive.

309 Cut-Off Freq Default: 0.0 Hz
This parameter sets the point where the drive no longer attempts to spin the motor. The range of this parameter is 0.0-
5.0 Hz. When the parameter is configured to a value of 0.0 Hz, the drive will operate with no Cut-off Frequency. If the function is enabled, the drive will be able to ramp up through the cut-off frequency range, as in normal operation. If the speed command falls below the cut-off frequency, the drive stops “gating” the outputs and coasts down to zero speed. The keypad display will indicate Zero Speed, and the Forward or Reverse LED will be lit depending on the command. When the reference returns to a value greater than the cut-off frequency, the drive will ramp from 0.0 Hz to the reference frequency.

403 Decel Time 1 Default: 5.0 s
This parameter configures the default length of time to decelerate from the value of parameter 302 (Max Frequency) to 0 Hz. The deceleration ramp is selected by parameter 401 (Ramp Select).
Note that extremely short deceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips or may require an external dynamic brake or regen current limit.

404 Accel Time 2 Default: 3.0 s
This parameter provides an alternate ramping time for the drive when accelerating, configuring the length of time to accelerate from 0 Hz to the value of parameter 302 (Max Frequency). This acceleration ramp is selected by parameter
401 (Ramp Select) or Sequencer configuration.
Note that extremely short acceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips.
405 Decel Time 2 Default: 3.0 s
This parameter provides an alternate ramping time for the drive when decelerating, configuring the length of time to decelerate from the value of parameter 302 (Max Frequency) to 0 Hz. This deceleration ramp is selected by parameter
401 (Ramp Select) or Sequencer configuration.
Note that extremely short deceleration times may result in nuisance fault trips or may require an external dynamic brake or regen current limit.
406 DC Inject Config Default: DC at Stop
DC injection braking may be used to stop the motor more quickly than is possible by either a ramp-to-stop or a coast­to-stop. The X4 drive allows DC braking to be initiated either when a digital input assigned to DC braking becomes true, when a specified frequency is reached, or when either of these events occurs.
When using a digital input for DC braking, you must use one of the DI parameters to configure the selected digital input for DC braking. The amount of braking force is set by parameter 408 (DC Inject Level). The length of time that the braking force is applied is determined by the time that the selected digital input is active. The second type of DC injection braking supported by the X4 drive is where DC braking occurs at a specified frequency. The duration of the braking is adjusted by parameter 407 (DC Inject Time).
With this type of braking, as the drive slows down after a Stop command, DC braking begins when the frequency reaches the value set in parameter 409 (DC Inj Freq). If the frequency at the time of a Stop command is less than that of DC Inj Freq, DC braking begins immediately. The braking continues for the time period specified by parameter DC Inj Freq. Once the time period elapses, the drive may be restarted.
Parameter Value
DC at Stop DC inject only on Stop DC at Start DC inject only on Start DC at Both DC inject only on both Start and Stop DC on Freq DC inject only on Stop below the set frequency
407 DC Inject Time Default: 0.2 sec
If parameter 406 is set to DC at Stop (see page 67), direct current is applied to the motor. This parameter, DC Inject
Time, determines how long the direct current will be applied, and how long DC is applied at Start if programmed accordingly.
This parameter works in tandem with parameter 410 (DC Inject Config) and the other parameters associated with DC Inject Config. That is, the time period configured by this parameter, DC Inject Time, determines how long DC injection braking will be active. When DC injection braking is controlled by a digital input, the braking continues for as long as the digital input is true, plus the time set by parameter 407 (DC Inject Time). When it is controlled by frequency, however, it continues for the length of time once the drive reaches the frequency set by parameter 409 (DC Inj Freq).
408 DC Inject Level Default: 50.0%
Configures the amount of DC injection that will occur when direct current is injected into the motor windings, which acts as a braking force. The amount of current is expressed as a percentage of nominal motor current. The braking force may be applied when starting or stopping. If this parameter is set to 0.0%, the DC injection is disabled.

Configures the frequency under which direct current will be applied to the drive when DC Inject Config is set to “DC on Freq.” If this parameter is set to 0.0, the parameter operates in the same way as “DC at Stop.”
410 DB Config Default: DB Internal
Determines whether an external or internal dynamic brake is utilized or disabled. The drive provides an internal dynamic brake (DB) to assist in stopping. If desired, an external resistor can be connected to DB and B+ for additional capacity. (Note: Size 0 models cannot have an external brake added.)

drops below -7 degrees C. When the DB becomes active, an “ARCTIC Mode” warning flashes on the keypad. If the drive drops below -10 degrees C, the drive will be disabled and not allowed to run. The keypad will indicate a “Not enabled” state at this point. If the drive heats up after being below -10 degrees C, the drive must meet the following criteria before operating again:
a) Drive temperature must be above -9 degrees C, and b) Drive temperature must stay above -9 degrees C until a time period has elapsed. The time period is
dependent on how far below -10 degrees C the drive was. Each degree below -10 degrees C adds another 4 minutes before restart.

414 S Ramp Rounding Default: 25%
This parameter is used to define the amount of rounding or S-curve to the Accel and Decel ramp. The amount of rounding is split evenly between the beginning and the end of the ramp. A value of 1% would mean that the rounding of the ramp is near linear. A value of 50% would have 25% rounding at the start of the ramp and 25% at the end of the ramp.

503 V/Hz Knee Freq Default: 60 Hz
This parameter sets the point on the frequency scale of the V/Hz curve at which the output is at full line voltage. Normally, this is set at the base frequency of the motor, but it may be increased to enlarge the constant torque range on special motors. Setting this parameter to a higher value can reduce motor losses at low frequencies.

504 Skip Freq Band Default: 0.2 Hz
To reduce mechanical resonances in a drive system, the drive may be configured to “skip” certain frequencies. Once configured, the drive will accelerate or decelerate through the prohibited frequency band without settling on any frequency in the band.
The X4 AC drive provides the capability to configure four prohibited frequency bands. Parameter 504 (Skip Freq Band), the Skip Frequency Band parameter, sets the width of the band above and below each of the prohibited frequencies set in parameters 505, 506, 507, and 508 (Skip Freq 1,2,3, 4).
For example, if this parameter is set to its default value of 1 Hz and parameter 505 (Skip Freq 1) is set to 20 Hz, a skip band from 19 to 21 Hz is established.
505 Skip Freq 1 506 Skip Freq 2 507 Skip Freq 3 508 Skip Freq 4
As discussed in the description of parameter 504 (Skip Freq Band), the drive may be configured to skip certain frequencies. These three parameters set the center of the three skip frequency bands (with the width of each band being twice the value of parameter 504 — an equal amount above and below the skip frequency).
For example, if parameter 504 is set to 2.5 Hz and parameter 508 (Skip Freq 4) is set to 55 Hz, a skip band from 52.5 to 57.5 Hz is established.
509 Rated Mtr Volt Default: Model dependent
The Rated Motor Voltage parameter configures the rated motor voltage, and allows a user to enter the rated voltage from the motor nameplate to provide optimal control and protection. This is usually the amount of voltage delivered to the motor terminals at the setting of 503 (V/Hz Knee Freq).
510 Rated Mtr FLA Default: ND Rating
The Rated Motor FLA parameter allows a user to enter the rated FLA from the motor nameplate to provide optimal control and protection. This parameter should be configured to the value on the nameplate of the motor, as that value is used in calculating the percentage of current at which the drive is operating.
For information on motor timed overload operation, and how parameter 510 works with it, see page 74.
511 Rated Mtr RPM Default: 1750 rpm
This parameter replaces the slip compensation parameter setting of the drive so the user does not need to calculate it.
512 Midpoint Freq Default: 60.0 Hz
When parameter 501, V/Hz Select, is configured to “Linear 2pc,” this parameter, together with parameter 513, Midpoint
Vol t, defines an additional point in the V/Hz characteristic.
513 Midpoint Volt Default: 100.0%
When parameter
Freq, defines an additional point in the V/Hz characteristic.
514 Motor RS Default: Model dependent
This parameter allows direct entry of the Stator Resistance (Rs) of the motor for better vector performance. The motor manufacturer can provide this information, or you can physically measure this value with an ohmmeter. From the line­to-line measurement of motor resistance, enter half the measured value. (See page 47 for more information.)
515 Power Factor Default: 0.80

be assigned:
Parameter Value
Not Active No stator RS measurement. Motor RS Automatic RS measurement using macro procedure.
520 Filter FStator Default: 8 ms
Description
Range: 1 - 100 ms
Level 2
This parameter filters the stator frequency applied to the motor, which can help tune the acceleration behavior of the motor. This is particularly helpful when using short ramps and operating the motor at a frequency above the “V/Hz Knee Freq” (parameter 503) value (field weakening area). Lower values allow dynamic currents to be produced, but with greater peaks. This could produce unstable states in the field weakening area. Low values for this parameter can cause overcurrent faults while accelerating to frequencies over the Knee Frequency. Higher values allow the drive to run more smoothly at frequencies over the Knee Frequency and protect the drive against overcurrents--often the case when using special motors or spindle drives.
521 Start Field En Default: No
Parameter Value
Description
Range: text string
Level 2
No The shaft will begin rotating after receiving a Start command, without delay. If the application has
heavy load conditions or short ramp times, this setting can produce very large starting currents, to overcome the inertia of the system. This may produce nuisance trips when starting.
Yes The shaft will begin rotating after receiving a Start command, with delay. During this delay, the drive
is building up the magnetic field in the motor. This allows the drive to start in vector mode with less starting current.
522 Filter Time Slip Default: 100 ms
Range: 10 - 1000 ms
Level 2
This parameter filters the slip frequency applied to the motor, which can help improve the dynamic response of the drive. This parameter produces the following results based on the parameter value:
If the parameter is configured to 100 ms, the drive will produce stable conditions to a change in load, in most cases. If the parameter is configured to less than 100 ms, the drive will be able to react quickly to a change in load, but may
over-compensate its reaction to the load. If the parameter is configured to greater than 100 ms, the drive will react very slowly to a change in load and will need
a longer time to compensate for the difference between the setpoint and the actual frequency.

600 Current Lim Sel Default: Fixed Lvls
The X4 drive provides a Current Limit feature. With this feature enabled, the drive’s frequency is automatically reduced when operating in motoring mode to keep the measured torque within limits. When operating in regenerative mode, the output frequency can be automatically increased for the same reason. In addition to the current limit parameters that activate the Current Limit mode, more current limit parameters are available to adjust the drive’s response to the load demands. The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:
Parameter Value Fixed Lvls The fixed levels set in parameters 601, 602, 603 and 604 determine the current limit in each of the
Vin2 Vin2 analog input sets the current limit value, range 0-200%
Cin Cin analog input sets the current limit value, range 0-200%
Vin2 Motor Vin2 analog input sets the motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Cin Motor Cin analog input sets the motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Vin2 F-Mtr Vin2 analog input sets the FWD motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Cin F-Motor Cin analog input sets the FWD motoring current limit value, range 0-200%
Note: Current limit is only available when Parameter 502 is set to Linear Auto. If Parameter 502 is set to Vector, then the Current Limiting values will actually be Torque Limiting values.
601 Cur Lim Mtr Fwd Default: 120%
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in motoring mode in the forward direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
602 Cur Lim Mtr Rev Default: 120%
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in motoring mode in the reverse direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
603 Cur Lim Reg Fwd Default: 80%
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in regenerative mode in the forward direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
604 Cur Lim Reg Rev Default: 80%
This parameter sets the current limiting point when the drive is in regenerative mode in the reverse direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the current capacity of the drive.
605 Cur Lim Freq Default: 3.0 Hz
This parameter sets the frequency where current limit becomes active. This value will also be the frequency point the drive will decelerate the motor to during Motoring Current Limit.
606 Ramp Time CL Default: 1.0 sec
This parameter determines the ramp rate when the drive enters Current Limit, and defines the ramping rate of the drive when in a current limiting mode. If the drive is in regenerative current limit, it is an acceleration time. If the drive is in motoring current limit, it is a deceleration time.
607 Cur Lim Minimum Default: 10%
This parameter limits the lowest amount of current (or torque) limiting that can occur when the limit threshold is determined by an analog input.

608 Restart Number 609 Restart Delay
You may configure the drive to attempt to re-start a specified number of times after certain faults occur. Chapter 8 lists all faults and notes which ones may be reset automatically.
The number of attempts at re-starting is set with parameter 608 (Restart Number). A value of 0 prevents the drive from attempting a re-start). The time duration that must elapse between re-start attempts is set with parameter 609 (Restart Delay). The type of start to be attempted is set with parameter 802 (Start Options); see page 78).
If the number of attempted re-starts is exceeded, the drive will trip with a fault and will stop operating. Resetting the fault can result in instant starting. (See page 93 for more information on faults and troubleshooting.)
Note that for 2-wire operation, the FWD or REV terminal must still be active for the drive to attempt a re-start.
Also note that the counter for attempted re-starts will not reset to zero until ten minutes after a successful re-start.

610 Timed OL Select Default: Std Ind 60s
Two parameters in the X4 work together to configure how the motor timed overload operates: Parameter 510 (Rated
Mtr FLA) and parameter 610 (Timed OL Select).
Parameter 510 (Rated Mtr FLA) should be configured to the value on the nameplate of the motor. This value is used
in calculating the percentage of current at which the drive is operating. Set parameter 610 to one of the following data values to configure the desired overload characteristic:
Options Std Ind Shp 0 sec Standard Induction N/A Std Ind 30s 30 sec Standard Induction 1 Std Ind 60s 60 sec Standard Induction 2

Timed OL Select determines the graph of Trip (Fault) Time vs. Percent Current that is used by the Motor TOL functionality. This protective feature is speed-dependent to handle standard induction motors whose cooling is limited by the shaft-mounted fan. Blower-cooled motors and most inverter-duty motors do not have this limitation.
613 Max Regen Ramp Default: 300%
This parameter operates as a percentage of the longest ramp time. This time then defines the amount of time a deceleration to stop can take without causing a “Regen Timeout” fault. For example, if “Decel Time 1” is 5.0 seconds, “Decel Time 2” is 10.0 seconds, and “Max Regen Ramp” is 300%, a deceleration to stop that takes more than 30 seconds will cause a “Regen Timeout” fault in the drive.

803 PWM Frequency Default: 3.0 kHz
The PWM Carrier Frequency parameter sets the carrier frequency of the Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) waveform supplied to the motor. Low carrier frequencies provide better low-end torque, but produce some audible noise from the motor. Higher carrier frequencies produce less audible noise, but cause more heating in the drive and motor.
804 Display Mode Default: Std Disply
The Display Mode parameter determines how the reference or output of the drive will be displayed to the user. If User Units is selected, parameter 805 allows you to customize the 3 unit values on the display. The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:

When using any of the Time functions, these refer to “Retention Time.” Retention time is an inverse function: as speed goes up, time goes down, and vice versa. It is typically used in oven-type applications. The value set in
parameter 809 (Display Scale) references the time of operation when running at Max. Frequency. For instance, if parameter 302 (Max. Frequency) is set for 60 Hz, 804 (Display Mode) is set for Time min, and 809 (Display
Scale) is set for 600, the scales of the display will read 60.0 min at maximum speed and increase in time (in
minutes) up to the maximum scale of 6553.5 at minimum frequency.

805 Display Units Default: RPM: 1
This parameter determines the three-character customer display units used when parameter 804 is set to User Units. The last digit indicates the number of decimal places to be shown on the display. Up to three decimal places are possible.
809 Display Scale Default: 1
This parameter determines how the reference or output of the drive will be displayed to the user. It selects the maximum scaling of the display when running at maximum frequency.
810 Language Default: English
This parameter configures the language text strings will be displayed in. The following data values may be assigned:
Parameter Value
English Italian Spanish French German
811 Access Code Default: 0
The security Access Code allows the user to control access to the programmable functions of the inverter. The initial value of this parameter is 000, which signifies that no access code is necessary. Any number between 001 and 999 may be used for an access code, but is not necessary. If an access code is entered, you will not be able to view the values while scrolling through parameters. Only after the Shift key is pressed will the actual value appear.
To enter an access code, re-program parameter 811 as you would any other parameter. After the new value is stored, you have 10 minutes of free access. If you remove power and then restore it, you will need to enter the access code to change any program parameter. If you enter an incorrect access code, the drive displays **WRONG CODE** and allows only viewing rights to the various parameters. Once the correct code is entered, you again have 10 minutes of free access unless power is removed and restored. To disable the access code requirement, set parameter 811 back to 000.
812 Freq Ref Output Default: 6FS
The Frequency Reference Output parameter determines the frequency pulse-train output from the DOP terminal. This digital output is a pulse train that can be linked to another drive or to a field meter for speed indication. The pulse train is a 50% duty cycle signal and requires a pull-up resistor of approximately 4.7 kOhms.
The following data values may be assigned to this parameter:
Parameter Value
6FS 48FS
813 Speed Ratio Default: 100.0%
The Master / Follower Speed Ratio parameter allows the pulse train output of one X4 series drive (master) to be used to control the speed of up to 8 other follower drives. The output of each follower can be individually programmed, or trimmed “ON-THE-FLY” with this parameter. The range of adjustment is 0-200% of the master. This function only works when using the 6FS and 48FS functions in parameter 204.

7.4 Using the X4 Program Sequencer

The X4 AC drive offers functionality that allows users to program up to nine independent operation states of the drive. This functionality is called the “program sequencer” because it allows the drive to sequence through the operation states programmed by the user. The X4 Program Sequencer can be used in applications that would normally require external intelligence, such as a simple programmable logic controller.

7.4.1 Enabling the X4 Program Sequencer

The X4 Program Sequencer can be enabled with parameter 491 (Seq Appl), found in the Application Macro programming mode of the X4 keypad. This parameter configures:
Whether the sequencer is enabled,
The time base used for all timing of the sequencer,
Whether other sequencer parameters are visible in Level 2 programming.
Table 7-3 shows the options for this parameter:

Options Value Meaning
Disabled 0

.1 sec base 2
.01 sec base 3
The Sequencer mode of the X4 is not active and the sequencer parameters are not visible in Level 2 programming.
The Sequencer mode of the X4 is active, sequencer parameters are visible in Level 2, and all timing for the sequencer will be on a 1-second base.
The Sequencer mode of the X4 is active, sequencer parameters are visible in Level 2, and all timing for the sequencer will be on a .1-second base.
The Sequencer mode of the X4 is active, sequencer parameters are visible in Level 2, and all timing for the sequencer will be on a .01-second base.

7.4.2 Controlling the X4 Program Sequencer

The Program Sequencer can be activated and controlled from either the keypad or the terminal strip. It is not possible to control the sequencer through the serial link. The control method of the program sequencer is determined by parameter 201, Input Mode. Setting the Input Mode parameter also

allows switching from Sequencer mode to normal keypad operation by way of the Local/Remote switch. Table 7-4 illustrates possible program sequencer control configurations.

When activating or controlling the X4 Program Sequencer from the keypad, pressing the FWD key commands the drive to cycle through the programmed states of the sequencer one time only (one­shot operation). One-shot operation will run the sequencer until state 9 is reached, or until any state that is not changed from the default is reached.
Pressing the SHIFT and FWD keys simultaneously causes the programmed sequence to repeat until the Stop key is pressed (continuous operation). In continuous mode, the sequencer runs until state 9 or any state that is not changed from the default is reached; it then jumps back to state 1.
Note that the REV key has no function in the sequencer mode.
Terminal Control of the X4 Program Sequencer
When activating or controlling the X4 Program Sequencer from terminals, continuous and one-shot operation is determined by whether the drive is wired for 2-wire or 3-wire control. If the terminal is set up for 2-wire control, the sequencer operates in continuous mode (R/J terminal inactive). This will run the sequencer until the Forward command is removed. If the terminal is set up for 3-wire control, the sequencer runs one cycle when the FWD terminal is activated.
Note that the REV terminal has no function in sequencer mode.
X4 Sequencer Dwell Functionality
The X4 sequencer has the capability to dwell, or pause, in a state and disregard any command to advance to the next state. This can be done in two different ways, and both methods can be used at the same time.
DPD00088A - 85 - © 2009 Vacon Incorporated All Rights Reserved
X4 AC Drive User’s Manual Chapter 7: X4 Parameters
If the sequencer is actively running and the Enter key is pressed from the Operate screen of the X4 keypad, the sequencer will dwell in the current state (it will never advance to the next state). While the sequencer is dwelling, a warning of “Seq Dwell” will flash on the Operate screen. To leave the dwell state, press the Enter key again from the Operate screen.
The sequencer Dwell mode can also be entered by programming a digital input to “Seq Dwell.” The sequencer will then dwell in the current state, for as long as the digital input is active.
X4 Sequencer Advance Functionality
The sequencer has the ability to allow the user to advance to the next state without satisfying the conditions programmed to advance. To do this, program a digital input to “Seq Advance.” When a digital input program to this option changes from inactive to active, a running sequencer will advance one state. This feature is useful when debugging a sequence with long time intervals.

7.4.3 Sequencer State Configuration Overview

Each state of the program sequencer is defined by five characteristics:
Direction in which the drive will operate
Speed at which the drive will operate
Ramp selection of the drive
Output configuration (relays and digital outputs) of the drive
How the sequencer advances to the next state.
These five characteristics are configured by two parameters for each state. These parameters are named “Seq Cntl X” and “Seq Count X,” where X represents the state number of the sequencer. The “Seq Cntl X” parameter is a binary parameter that sets each of the five characteristics listed above. “Seq Count X” configures the threshold that the sequencer will use in determining when to advance by the method programmed in the control parameter. The bit patterns of the Seq Cntl X” parameters are shown in Figure 7-1:

X4 Sequencer Speed Selection
Table 7-5 gives more information on the speed selection options available in the X4 sequencer by programming bits 0, 1, and 2 of each state’s control parameter. The options include any Preset Speed, Max Frequency, or allowing the reference to be determined in the normal X4 control path.

111 Value of parameter Max Frequency (302)
X4 Sequencer Ramping Selection
Speed selection as in normal X4 operation, as defined by parameters 204 (Ref Select) and 201
(Input Mode).
When the sequencer is active, the active ramp is no longer determined by parameter “Ramp Select.” The user, however, does have the choice of using the main ramps (Accel Time 1/Decel Time1), or the alternate ramps (Accel Time 2/Decel Time 2) for each independent state. This is determined by bit 3 of the control parameter. If bit 3 is set to 1, then the alternate ramps are used (Accel Time 2/ Decel Time 2).
Sequencer Output Configuration
The X4 Program Sequencer allows digital outputs to be activated during states of the sequencer. This function could be used to activate other devices in a system or to signal to an operator when a part of the sequence is active. The user sets the digital output by setting bits 9 and 10 of the control parameter with a binary value, and then sets a digital output parameter with the option for that same binary value. For example, if a control state was output configured for a binary value of 11, then any digital output configured to “SeqOut-11” would be activated during that time.
Sequencer Direction Selection
The sequencer allows each state to be configured as running Forward, Reverse, Stopped, or DC Injected by setting bits 7 and 8 of the control parameters.
Sequencer State Duration
Bits 4, 5, and 6 of each sequencer control parameter specify how that step will allow advancement to the next step. The options for advancement are time, pulse input, voltage threshold, current threshold, or digital input comparison. After the advancement method is selected with these bits, the threshold of advancement is determined by the state’s count parameter (see the next paragraph).
Sequencer State Advance Threshold (via Count Parameter)
The sequencer count parameters work in conjunction with the state duration configuration in the control parameter to determine when to advance to the next state. The function of this parameter is dependent on the state duration configuration as defined in Table 7-6 on page 88. The range of data

7.4.4 Sequencer Status Indicators

When the sequencer is enabled, the control path indication field on the keypad will indicate SQx, where x represents the active state of the sequencer. A sample operate screen (where the sequencer is in state 1) is shown below:
Q 1 : S t o p p eS d
0 . 0 H z + 0 %
When the sequencer is running, a warning, “Seq Running,” will flash on the screen to indicate that the drive control state may change without user input. For example:
Q 1 : S t o p p eS d
0 . 0 H z + 0 %
Q 1 : S e q R u n n i nS g
0 . 0 H z + 0 %
When the sequencer is dwelling (pausing) in a state, a warning, “Seq Dwell,” will flash on the screen to indicate that the sequencer will not advance. For example:
Q 1 : S t o p p eS d
0 . 0 H z + 0 %
Q 1 : S e q D w e lS l
0 . 0 H z + 0 %

7.4.5 Sample Sequencer Program

A machine is required to run in the forward direction at 50 Hz for one hour, then quickly decelerate to a stop. While stopped, a digital output must be enabled to sound an alarm to an operator. After two minutes, the machine must accelerate in the reverse direction to 5 Hz until a limit switch is activated., causing the drive to decelerate to a stop. The following three sequential states can be programmed using only the drive:
Table 7-7: Sample Sequencer Program Requirements
State 1 State 2 State 3
Direction Selection Forward Stop Reverse
Speed Selection 50 Hz Zero speed 5 Hz
Ramp Selection Primary Alternate Primary
Output Configuration SeqOut-00 SeqOut-01 SeqOut-10
State Duration 1 hour 2 minutes Until DI active
First, since two of the sequential states are time-based, the proper setting of the “Seq Appl” parameter must be determined. Since there is not time required that has resolution needed of less than one second, the “1 sec Base” option is the easiest to use. If greater resolution is needed (for example, if a state needed to last for 2.5 seconds), another option should be chosen.
Since the sequence requires use of a digital input and a digital output, two non-sequencer parameters need to be used. Set the parameter “DI1 Configure” to “Seq1” and the parameter “DO1 Configure” to “SeqOut-01.”
Since control of the sequencer is only needed from the keypad, the configuration of the “Input Mode” parameter should be “Local Only.”

This fault occurs if a power dip occurs when the drive is
0
operating, and the drive is not able to ride through the power dip before shutting off outputs.
This fault occurs when an undervoltage condition (power­down) is detected, and when
parameter 501 is set for Vector or
1
Linear Auto mode, with “Coast Stop” assigned as the parameter value. In undervoltage conditions, the drive coasts to a stop, and generates an undervoltage fault.
This fault occurs when an undervoltage condition (power­down) is detected, and when
parameter 501 is set for Vector or
Linear Auto mode, with “Controlled” assigned as the
2
parameter value. In undervoltage conditions, the drive decelerates the motor. If power is restored, the drive accelerates to the command frequency without faulting; if the drive stops, it generates an undervoltage fault.
If the user configures parameter
517 (Single Phase) for single-
phase operation, this fault occurs if the bus voltage ripple is outside the limit of the drive.
If the drive cannot measure the
0
stator resistance properly, this fault occurs.
There is a problem with the heat
0
sink fan.
There is a problem with the internal fan. This occurs only on Size 4 and 5 models. All other models display a fan error warning.
Note that this is lack of fan
1
control, so the fan can be spinning and this fault will still occur. This can happen if the fan is on and should not be, or if the fan feedback signals are obstructed from getting to the control board.
Note: Shaded faults are auto-resettable, except where noted.
Verify that input line power is within the drive’s specifications. Add a transformer or reduce demands to power feed.
Consult factory.
Check that input power demand does not exceed the drive’s capacity for single-phase operation. Consult factory.
Try the routine again and if the fault occurs twice, consult the factory.
Consult factory.
