2Introduction
2.1Features
The SM-I/O 24V Protected is designed as an over voltage protected I/O Solution
Module.
The Solutions Module is able to withstand a +48V input voltage being applied to the
+24V Digital I/O terminals.
The SM-I/O 24V Protected can be used on the following products:
•Unidrive SP
•Commander SK
•Commander GP20
The SM-I/O 24V Protected increases the I/O capability of the drive by adding the
following to the existing I/O:
•2 x Analogue current outputs
•4 x Digital inputs/outputs*
•3 x Digital inputs
•2 x Relay (30Vdc contact rating)**
All connections from the Solutions Module to the drive are made via the drive connector.
Connections from external equipment to the relay, digital I/O and analogue outputs are
made via a 17-way pluggable screw connector.
On the Unidrive SP a total of three SM-I/O 24V Protected modules can be fitted at any
one time. On the Commander SK only one can be fitted, on the Commander GP20 two
can be fitted.
*Only three digital outputs are available with Commander SK.
1. The label located on the underside of the Solutions Module.
2. The colour coding across the front of the Solutions Module, with the SM-I/O 24V
Protected being cobalt blue.

2.2.1Date code format
The date code is split into two sections: a letter followed by a number.
The letter indicates the year, and the number indicates the week number (within the
year) in which the Solutions Module was built.
The letters go in alphabetical order, starting with A in 1990 (B in 1991, C in 1992 etc.).
Example:
A date code of L35 would correspond to week 35 of year 2002.
2.3Conventions used in this guide
The configuration of the host drive and Solutions Module is done using menus and
parameters. A menu is a logical collection of parameters that have similar functionality.
In the case of a Solutions Module, the parameters will appear in menu 15 for the
Commander SK, and in menu 15, 16 or 17 for the Unidrive SP and 15, 16 on the
Commander GP20 depending on the slot the module is fitted into. The menu is
determined by the number before the decimal point.
The method used to determine the menu or parameter is as follows:
•Pr xx.00 - signifies any menu and parameter number 00.
•Pr x.XX - where x signifies the menu allocated to the Solutions Module (this could
be 15, 16 or 17 on the Unidrive SP, 15 or 16 on Commander GP20 but will always
be 15 on the Commander SK) and XX signifies the parameter number.

2.4Solutions Module I/O
How to use this guide Safety Information
NOTE
NOTE
NOTE
Solution Module I/O only operates in positive logic mode.
All I/O and relays are user programmable for function and signal processing.
All new source and destination routing only changes to new set up locations when the
drive is reset.
NOTE
By default, the digital inputs/outputs on the Solutions Module are configured to operate
as inputs, except Digital I/O 4 which is configured as an output (input only for
Commander SK).
NOTE
The logic state of a digital input will operate even without a destination parameter
programmed.
2.5Digital I/O
All digital I/O complies with IEC 61131-2, clause 3.3.1 type 1, (i.e. >2mA @ +15Vdc).
For type 2 input, the user will need to add extra load externally.
Three terminals are dedicated digital inputs (4 with Commander SK); the functionality of
these inputs is as follows:
•The logic state of the input is monitored by a RO parameter
•The logic state can be inverted
•The digital input can be programmed to any unprotected parameter. The destination
parameter value will always be either 0 or 1 depending on the state of the input.
Programmable digital inputs / outputs 4**
Four terminals are programmable as either digital inputs or output terminals (3 with
Commander SK), the functionality of these terminals is as follows:
Input
•The logic state of each input is monitored by a RO parameter
•The logic state can be inverted
•The digital input can be programmed to any unprotected parameter. The destination
parameter value will always be either 0 or 1 depending on the state of the input
Output
•The logic state of each output is monitored by a RO parameter
•The logic state can be inverted
•The digital outputs can be sourced from any parameter.
In the case where an integer parameter is used as the source, the threshold of
the output switching between low and high states is 50% of the parameter’s
maximum.
E.g. Source parameter = Pr 18.11 (maximum = 32767)
50% of 32767 = 16383 (due to integer truncation)
Therefore, if Pr 18.11 ≥ 16383 the output will be high
SM-I/O 24V Protected User Guide7
Issue Number: 2www.controltechniques.com
•The four digital outputs of the Solutions Module (three digital outputs with
Commander SK) are able to source 40 mA to the total combination of output
channels (e.g. 4 x 10mA or 1 x 40mA). When the current drawn exceeds safe limits,
all the outputs will be disabled through hardware and trip the drive to alert the user
to the fault condition.
**A maximum of three digital outputs are available with Commander SK.
2.6Analogue output
FunctionQuantity
Unipolar current output2
Two terminals have a dedicated analogue output with the following functions:
•The output can be used to convey the value of any valid source parameter to
external equipment*.
•The output operates in one of the following modes as set in Pr
and 20-4.
•A scaling factor can be applied to the analogue output signal*
*Only available on analogue output 1 with Commander SK.
2.7Relays
FunctionQuantity
Number of relays2 (1 on Commander SK)
The relay can be used to convey the logic state of any parameter to external equipment.
The logic state is processed as follows:
•Any source parameter is assigned to relay.
•The logic state can be inverted.
•The software state of the coil is monitored by a parameter.

Safety Information
A Caution contains information, which is necessary for avoiding a risk of damage to the
product or other equipment.
CAUT ION
NOTE
A Note contains information, which helps to ensure correct operation of the product.
3.2Electrical safety - general warning
The voltages used in the drive can cause severe electrical shock and/or burns, and
could be lethal. Extreme care is necessary at all times when working with or adjacent to
the drive.
Specific warnings are given at the relevant places in this User Guide.
3.3System design and safety of personnel
The drive is intended as a component for professional incorporation into complete
equipment or a system. If installed incorrectly, the drive may present a safety hazard.
The drive uses high voltages and currents, carries a high level of stored electrical
energy, and is used to control equipment which can cause injury.
Close attention is required to the electrical installation and the system design to avoid
hazards either in normal operation or in the event of equipment malfunction. System
design, installation, commissioning and maintenance must be carried out by personnel
who have the necessary training and experience. They must read this safety information
and this User Guide carefully.
The STOP and SECURE DISABLE functions of the drive do not isolate dangerous
voltages from the output of the drive or from any external option unit. The supply must
be disconnected by an approved electrical isolation device before gaining access to the
electrical connections.
With the sole exception of the SECURE DISABLE function, none of the drive
functions must be used to ensure safety of personnel, i.e. they must not be used
for safety-related functions.
Note that the SECURE DISABLE function is only available as standard on the Unidrive
SP and Commander GP20. The Commander SK does not have a SECURE DISABLE
input.
Careful consideration must be given to the functions of the drive which might result in a
hazard, either through their intended behaviour or through incorrect operation due to a
fault. In any application where a malfunction of the drive or its control system could lead
to or allow damage, loss or injury, a risk analysis must be carried out, and where
necessary, further measures taken to reduce the risk - for example, an over-speed
protection device in case of failure of the speed control, or a fail-safe mechanical brake
SM-I/O 24V Protected User Guide9
Issue Number: 2www.controltechniques.com
in case of loss of motor braking.
The SECURE DISABLE function and secure input meet the requirements of EN954-1
category 3 for the prevention of unexpected starting of the drive. They may be used in a
safety-related application. The system designer is responsible for ensuring that the
complete system is safe and designed correctly according to the relevant safety
standards.
3.4Environmental limits
Instructions in the Unidrive SP User Guide, Commander GP20 User Guide,
Commander SK Getting Started Guide, Commander SK Technical Data Guide
regarding transport, storage, installation and use of the drive must be complied with,
including the specified environmental limits. Drives must not be subjected to excessive
physical force.
3.5Compliance with regulations
The installer is responsible for complying with all relevant regulations, such as national
wiring regulations, accident prevention regulations and electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC) regulations. Particular attention must be given to the cross-sectional areas of
conductors, the selection of fuses or other protection, and protective earth (ground)
connections.
The Unidrive SP User Guide, Commander GP20 User Guide and Commander SK Technical Data Guide contain instructions for achieving compliance with specific EMC
standards.
Within the European Union, all machinery in which this product is used must comply
with the following directives:
98/37/EC: Safety of machinery.
89/336/EEC: Electromagnetic Compatibility.
3.6Motor
Ensure the motor is installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Ensure the motor shaft is not exposed.
Standard squirrel cage induction motors are designed for single speed operation. If it is
intended to use the capability of the drive to run a motor at speeds above its designed
maximum, it is strongly recommended that the manufacturer is consulted first.
Low speeds may cause the motor to overheat because the cooling fan becomes less
effective. The motor should be fitted with a protection thermistor. If necessary, an
electric forced vent fan should be used.
The values of the motor parameters set in the drive affect the protection of the motor.
The default values in the drive should not be relied upon.
It is essential that the correct value is entered in the motor rated current parameter:
Pr 0.46 for Unidrive SP / Commander GP20 and Pr 06 in Commander SK. This affects
the thermal protection of the motor.
3.7Adjusting parameters
Some parameters have a profound effect on the operation of the drive. They must not
be altered without careful consideration of the impact on the controlled system.
Measures must be taken to prevent unwanted changes due to error or tampering.

5Parameters
5.1Introduction
The parameters listed in this chapter are used for programming and monitoring the SMI/O 24V Protected.
5.1.1Parameter update times
The SM-IO 24V Protected is an intelligent Solutions Module. The update times for the
parameters are defined by the drive type in use. The following apply only when the
Solutions Module is used with a Unidrive SP:
Parameters shown as "Background" are updated at least once every 30ms.
If a destination pointer parameter is set up to pass data to a drive parameter including
parameters in the menu for this option module, the parameter is updated once every
4ms.
If a source pointer parameter is set up to get data from a drive parameter including
parameters in the menu for this option, the drive parameter is read once every 4ms.
The following apply only when the Solutions Module is used with a Commander SK:
The module has two parameter update times; background and fast update. The actual
update times for the two types of parameter are dependent upon the number of I/O used
(i.e. that are mapped to a valid source or destination) on the module.
The update rate for fast update parameters can be calculated with the following
expression:
t
(ms) = ((Number of I/O used) + 2 ) * 2ms
FU
The update time for background level parameters can be calculated with the following
expression:
t
(ms) = tFU * 33
BU
Only source and destination parameters that are routed to a valid parameter are
updated at the fast rate.

WARNING
The analogue output 2 source is always active (source always Pr 4.02 with Commander
SK), therefore the minimum fast update time with any other I/O active will be 8ms. The
background update time will be a minimum of 264ms.
On the Unidrive SP, the “x” in the parameter number (e.g. Pr x.01), is either Menu 15
(slot 1), 16 (slot 2) or 17 (slot 3) depending on which slot is used.
On the Commander GP20, the “x” in the parameter number (e.g. Pr x.01), is either Menu
15 (slot 1), or 16 (slot 2) depending on which slot is used.
On Commander SK the “x” in the parameter number is Menu 15.

Update rate: Write on power-up
On Unidrive SP / Commander GP20 the menu for the relevant slot appears for the new
Solutions Module category with the default parameter values for the new category. For
Commander SK it will always be menu 15.
When no Solutions Module is fitted in the relevant slot this parameter is zero. When a
Solutions Module is fitted this parameter displays the identification code as shown
below.
The new parameter values are not stored in the drive EEPROM until the user performs
a parameter save by setting Pr xx.00 to 1000 (or 1001 in the case of solely using the
24V back-up power supply) and pressing the stop/reset button. When parameters are
saved by the user in the drive EEPROM, the option code of the currently fitted Solutions
Module is saved in the drive EEPROM. If the drive is subsequently powered-up with a
different Solutions Module fitted, or no Solutions Module is fitted when one was
previously fitted, the drive will trip on SLx.dF or SLx.nF.

The error status is provided so that only one option error trip is required for each
Solutions Module slot. If an error occurs, the reason for the error is written to this
parameter and the drive may produce a ‘SLx.Er’ trip, where x is the slot number (SL.Er
on Commander SK). A value of zero indicates that the Solutions Module has not
detected an error, a non-zero value indicates that an error has been detected. (See
Chapter 6 Diagnostics for the meaning of the values in this parameter.) When the drive
is reset, this parameter is cleared for the relevant Solutions Module.
This Solutions Module includes a temperature monitoring circuit. If the PCB temperature
exceeds 90°C, the drive fan is forced to operate at full speed (for a minimum of 10s). If
the temperature falls below 90°C, the fan can operate normally again. If the PCB
temperature exceeds 100°C, the drive is tripped and the error status is set to 74.
If the PCB temperature exceeds 90°C on the Commander SK, the fan will operate at full
speed for a minimum of 20s.

If the drive trips, the output is disabled so that the drive stops controlling the motor. The
display indicates that a trip has occurred as shown in Figure 6-1 and Figure 6-3.
Trips are listed in section 6.2 Unidrive SP / Commander GP20 trip descriptions on
page 34 and section 6.3 Commander SK trip descriptions on page 35 based on the trip
indication shown on the drive display. Refer to Figure 6-1 for Unidrive SP / Commander
GP20 and Figure 6-3 for Commander SK.
If a display is not used on the Unidrive SP / Commander GP20, the drive LED Status
indicator will flash if the drive has tripped. Refer to Figure 6-2.
The trip indication can be read in Pr 10.20 providing a trip number.
