Drive firmware version
This product is supplied with the latest firmware version. If this drive is to be connected to an existing system or machine,
all drive firmware versions should be verified to confirm the same functionality as drives of the same model already
present. This may also apply to drives returned from a Control Techniques Service Centre or Repair Centre. If there is
any doubt please contact the supplier of the product.
The firmware version of the drive can be checked by looking at Pr 11.029.
Environmental statement
Control Techniques is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing operations and of its
products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental Management System (EMS) which is
certified to the International Standard ISO 14001. Further information on the EMS, our Environmental Policy and other
relevant information is available on request, or can be found at www.greendrives.com.
The electronic variable-speed drives manufactured by Control Techniques have the potential to save energy and
(through increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and scrap throughout their long
working lifetime. In typical applications, these positive environmental effects far outweigh the negative impacts of product
manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they must not be discarded but should
instead be recycled by a specialist recycler of electronic equipment. Recyclers will find the products easy to dismantle
into their major component parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap together and can be separated without the use
of tools, while other parts are secured with conventional fasteners. Virtually all parts of the product are suitable for
recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden crates, while smaller
products come in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high recycled fibre content. If not re-used, these
containers can be recycled. Polythene, used on the protective film and bags for wrapping product, can be recycled in the
same way. Control Techniques' packaging strategy prefers easily-recyclable materials of low environmental impact, and
regular reviews identify opportunities for improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation and best practice.
REACH legislation
EC Regulation 1907/2006 on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals (REACH) requires
the supplier of an article to inform the recipient if it contains more than a specified proportion of any substance which is
considered by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to be a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) and is
therefore listed by them as a candidate for compulsory authorisation.
For current information on how this requirement applies in relation to specific Control Techniques products, please
approach your usual contact in the first instance. Control Techniques position statement can be viewed at:

1 Safety information
1.1 Warnings, Cautions and Notes
A Warning contains information which is essential for
avoiding a safety hazard.
A Caution contains information which is necessary for
avoiding a risk of damage to the product or other equipment.
A Note contains information which helps to ensure correct operation of
the product.
1.2 Electrical 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.
1.3 System 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/
start-up 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 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.
None of the drive functions must be used to ensure safety of
personnel, i.e. they must not be used for safety-related functions.
Careful consideration must be given to the functions of the drive which
might result in a hazard, either through their intended behavior 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 in case of loss of motor braking.
1.6 Fire protection
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire
enclosure must be provided. For further information, refer to section
3.2.5 Fire protection on page 19.
1.7 Compliance 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 ground (earth) connections.
This User Guide contains instruction 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:
2006/42/EC Safety of machinery.
2004/108/EC: Electromagnetic Compatibility.
1.8 Motor
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 installed 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 Pr 00.006 motor rated
current. This affects the thermal protection of the motor.
1.9 Mechanical brake control
The brake control functions are provided to allow well co-ordinated
operation of an external brake with the drive. While both hardware and
software are designed to high standards of quality and robustness, they
are not intended for use as safety functions, i.e. where a fault or failure
would result in a risk of injury. In any application where the incorrect
operation of the brake release mechanism could result in injury,
independent protection devices of proven integrity must also be
incorporated.
1.10 Adjusting 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.
1.4 Environmental limits
Instructions in this User 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.
1.5 Access
Drive access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety
regulations which apply at the place of use must be complied with.

2.2 Ratings
The size 1 to 4 drive is Heavy Duty rated only.
The size 5 to 6 drive is dual rated.
The setting of the motor rated current determines which rating applies Heavy Duty or Normal Duty.
The two ratings are compatible with motors designed to IEC60034.
The graph aside illustrates the difference between Normal Duty and
Heavy Duty with respect to continuous current rating and short term
overload limits.
Normal DutyHeavy Duty (default)
For applications which use Self ventilated (TENV/TEFC) induction
motors and require a low overload capability, and full torque at low
speeds is not required (e.g. fans, pumps).
Self ventilated (TENV/TEFC) induction motors require increased
protection against overload due to the reduced cooling effect of the fan
2
at low speed. To provide the correct level of protection the I
t software
operates at a level which is speed dependent. This is illustrated in the
graph below.
The speed at which the low speed protection takes effect can be
changed by the setting of Low Speed Thermal Protection Mode
(04.025). The protection starts when the motor speed is below 15 % of
base speed when Pr 04.025 = 0 (default) and below 50 % when
Pr 04.025 = 1.
Operation of motor I2t protection
Motor I2t protection is fixed as shown below and is compatible with:
•Self ventilated (TENV/TEFC) induction motors
For constant torque applications or applications which require a high
overload capability, or full torque is required at low speeds (e.g. winders,
hoists).
The thermal protection is set to protect force ventilated induction motors
by default.
N
If the application uses a self ventilated (TENV/TEFC) induction motor
and increased thermal protection is required for speeds below 50 %
base speed, then this can be enabled by setting Low Speed Thermal Protection Mode (04.025) = 1.
Motor I2t protection defaults to be compatible with:
•Forced ventilation induction motors

2.2.1 Typical short term overload limits
The maximum percentage overload limit changes depending on the selected motor. Variations in motor rated current, motor power factor and motor
leakage inductance all result in changes in the maximum possible overload. The exact value for a specific motor can be calculated using the
equations detailed in Menu 4 in the Parameter Reference Guide.
Typical values are shown in the table below for RFC-A and open loop (OL) modes:
Table 2-5 Typical overload limits
Operating modeRFC From coldRFC From 100 %Open loop from cold Open loop from 100 %
Normal Duty overload with motor rated

180 % for 3 s180 % for 3 s150 % for 60 s150 % for 8 s
Generally the drive rated current is higher than the matching motor rated current allowing a higher level of overload than the default setting.
The time allowed in the overload region is proportionally reduced at very low output frequency on some drive ratings.
The maximum overload level which can be attained is independent of the speed.

2.3 Operating modes
The drive is designed to operate in any of the following modes:
The drive applies power to the motor at frequencies varied by the user. The motor speed is a result of the output frequency of the drive and slip due
to the mechanical load. The drive can improve the speed control of the motor by applying slip compensation. The performance at low speed depends
on whether V/F mode or open loop vector mode is selected.
Open loop vector mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the frequency except at low speed where the drive uses motor parameters to apply the
correct voltage to keep the flux constant under varying load conditions.
Typically 100 % torque is available down to 1 Hz for a 50 Hz motor.
Fixed V/F mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the frequency except at low speed where a voltage boost is provided which is set by the
user. This mode can be used for multi-motor applications.
Typically 100 % torque is available down to 4 Hz for a 50 Hz motor.
Square V/F mode
The voltage applied to the motor is directly proportional to the square of the frequency except at low speed where a voltage boost is provided which is
set by the user. This mode can be used for running fan or pump applications with quadratic load characteristics or for multi-motor applications. This
mode is not suitable for applications requiring a high starting torque.
2.3.2 RFC-A mode
Rotor Flux Control for Asynchronous (induction) motors (RFC-A) encompasses closed loop vector control without a position feedback device
Without position feedback sensor
Rotor flux control provides closed loop control without the need for position feedback by using current, voltages and key motor parameters to estimate
the motor speed. It can eliminate instability traditionally associated with open loop control for example when operating large motors with light loads at
low frequencies.

3 Mechanical installation
This chapter describes how to use all mechanical details to install the
drive. The drive is intended to be installed in an enclosure. Key features
of this chapter include:
•Through hole mounting
•High IP as standard or Through-panel mounting
•Enclosure sizing and layout
•Option module installing
•Terminal location and torque settings
3.1 Safety information
Follow the instructions
The mechanical and electrical installation instructions must
be adhered to. Any questions or doubt should be referred to
the supplier of the equipment. It is the responsibility of the
owner or user to ensure that the installation of the drive and
any external option unit, and the way in which they are
operated and maintained, comply with the requirements of
the Health and Safety at Work Act in the United Kingdom or
applicable legislation and regulations and codes of practice in
the country in which the equipment is used.
Competence of the installer
The drive must be installed by professional assemblers who
are familiar with the requirements for safety and EMC. The
assembler is responsible for ensuring that the end product or
system complies with all the relevant laws in the country
where it is to be used.
3.2.3 Cooling
The heat produced by the drive must be removed without its specified
operating temperature being exceeded. Note that a sealed enclosure
gives much reduced cooling compared with a ventilated one, and may
need to be larger and/or use internal air circulating fans.
For further information, refer to section 3.6 Enclosure for standard drives on page 34.
3.2.4 Electrical safety
The installation must be safe under normal and fault conditions.
Electrical installation instructions are given in Chapter 4 Electrical installation on page 45.
3.2.5 Fire protection
The drive enclosure is not classified as a fire enclosure. A separate fire
enclosure must be provided.
For installation in the USA, a NEMA 12 enclosure is suitable.
For installation outside the USA, the following (based on IEC 62109-1,
standard for PV inverters) is recommended.
Enclosure can be metal and/or polymeric, polymer must meet
requirements which can be summarized for larger enclosures as using
materials meeting at least UL 94 class 5VB at the point of minimum
thickness.
Air filter assemblies to be at least class V-2.
The location and size of the bottom shall cover the area shown in Figure
3-1. Any part of the side which is within the area traced out by the 5°
angle is also considered to be part of the bottom of the fire enclosure.
Figure 3-1 Fire enclosure bottom layout
Enclosure
The drive is intended to be mounted in an enclosure which
prevents access except by trained and authorized
personnel, and which prevents the ingress of contamination.
It is designed for use in an environment classified as
pollution degree 2 in accordance with IEC 60664-1. This
means that only dry, non-conducting contamination is
acceptable.
3.2 Planning the installation
The following considerations must be made when planning the installation:
3.2.1 Access
Access must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Safety
regulations which apply at the place of use must be complied with.
The IP (Ingress Protection) rating of the drive is installation dependent.
For further information, refer to section 3.9 Enclosing size 5 to 6 drive for high environmental protection on page 37
3.2.2 Environmental protection
The drive must be protected from:
•Moisture, including dripping water or spraying water and
condensation. An anti-condensation heater may be required, which
must be switched off when the drive is running.
•Contamination with electrically conductive material
•Contamination with any form of dust which may restrict the fan, or
impair airflow over various components
•Temperature beyond the specified operating and storage ranges
•Corrosive gasses
The bottom, including the part of the side considered to be part of the
bottom, must be designed to prevent escape of burning material - either
by having no openings or by having a baffle construction. This means
that openings for cables etc. must be sealed with materials meeting the
5VB requirement, or else have a baffle above. See Figure 3-2 for
acceptable baffle construction. This does not apply for mounting in an
enclosed electrical operating area (restricted access) with concrete floor.
Figure 3-2 Fire enclosure baffle construction
During installation it is recommended that the vents on the drive are
covered to prevent debris (e.g. wire off-cuts) from entering the drive.

3.2.6 Electromagnetic compatibility
Variable speed drives are powerful electronic circuits which can cause electromagnetic interference if not installed correctly with careful attention to
the layout of the wiring.
Some simple routine precautions can prevent disturbance to typical industrial control equipment.
If it is necessary to meet strict emission limits, or if it is known that electromagnetically sensitive equipment is located nearby, then full precautions
must be observed. In-built into the drive, is an internal EMC filter, which reduces emissions under certain conditions. If these conditions are exceeded,
then the use of an external EMC filter may be required at the drive inputs, which must be located very close to the drives. Space must be made
available for the filters and allowance made for carefully segregated wiring. Both levels of precautions are covered in section 4.8 EMC(Electromagnetic compatibility) on page 62.
3.2.7 Hazardous areas
The drive must not be located in a classified hazardous area unless it is installed in an approved enclosure and the installation is certified.
3.3 Terminal cover removal
Isolation device
The AC and / or DC power supply must be disconnected from the drive using an approved isolation device before any cover is removed
from the drive or before any servicing work is performed.
Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the AC and / or DC power supply has been
disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the power supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal resistor. Under certain, unusual fault conditions, it is possible that the capacitors may
fail to discharge, or be prevented from being discharged by a voltage applied to the output terminals. If the drive has failed in a manner that
causes the display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors will not be discharged. In this case, consult Control Techniques or
their authorized distributor.
3.3.1 Removing the terminal covers

The drives shown in Figure 3-3 have a single removable terminal cover which provides access to all electrical connections, i.e. Control, AC, Motor
and Brake functions. Figure 3-5 on page 21 illustrates the three steps required to remove the drive terminal covers.

1. Add the dissipation figures from section 11.1.2 Power dissipation on
page 163 for each drive that is to be installed in the enclosure.
2. If an external EMC filter is to be used with each drive, add the
dissipation figures from section 11.2.1 EMC filter ratings on
page 178 for each external EMC filter that is to be installed in the
enclosure.
3. If the braking resistor is to be mounted inside the enclosure, add the
average power figures from for each braking resistor that is to be
installed in the enclosure.
4. Calculate the total heat dissipation (in Watts) of any other equipment
to be installed in the enclosure.
5. Add the heat dissipation figures obtained above. This gives a figure
in Watts for the total heat that will be dissipated inside the enclosure.
Calculating the size of a sealed enclosure
The enclosure transfers internally generated heat into the surrounding
air by natural convection (or external forced air flow); the greater the
surface area of the enclosure walls, the better is the dissipation
capability. Only the surfaces of the enclosure that are unobstructed (not
in contact with a wall or floor) can dissipate heat.

Example
To calculate the size of an enclosure for the following:
•Two drives operating at the Normal Duty rating
•External EMC filter for each drive
•Braking resistors are to be mounted outside the enclosure
•Maximum ambient temperature inside the enclosure: 40°C
•Maximum ambient temperature outside the enclosure: 30°C
For example, if the power dissipation from each drive is 187 W and the
power dissipation from each external EMC filter is 9.2 W.
Total dissipation: 2 x (187 + 9.2) =392.4 W
Power dissipation for the drives and the external EMC filters can be
obtained from Chapter 11 Technical data on page 159.
The enclosure is to be made from painted 2 mm (0.079 in) sheet steel

If the enclosure is too large for the space available, it can be made
smaller only by attending to one or all of the following:
•Using a lower PWM switching frequency to reduce the dissipation in
the drives
•Reducing the ambient temperature outside the enclosure, and/or
applying forced-air cooling to the outside of the enclosure
•Reducing the number of drives in the enclosure
•Removing other heat-generating equipment

3.8 Heatsink fan operation
The drive is ventilated by an internal heatsink fan. The fan channels air
through the heatsink chamber.
Ensure the minimum clearances around the drive are maintained to
allow air to flow freely.
The heatsink fan on all drive sizes is a variable speed fan. The drive
controls the speed at which the fan runs based on the temperature of the
heatsink and the drive's thermal model system. The maximum speed at
which the fan operates can be limited in Pr 06.045. This could incur an
output current derating. Refer to section 3.12.1 Fan removal procedure on page 44 for information on fan removal. The size 6 is also
installed with a variable speed fan to ventilate the capacitor bank. The
heatsink fan on the size 5 to 6 is supplied internally by the drive.

3.9 Enclosing size 5 to 6 drive for high
environmental protection
An explanation of the environmental protection rating is provided in
section 11.1.9 IP / UL Rating on page 167.
The standard drive is rated to IP20 pollution degree 2 (dry, nonconductive contamination only). However, it is possible to configure the
size 5 to 6 drive to achieve IP65 rating at the rear of the heatsink for
through-panel mounting (some current derating is required).
Refer to Table 11-3 on page 160.
This allows the front of the size 5 to 6 drive, along with the various
switchgear, to be housed in an IP65 enclosure with the heatsink
protruding through the panel to the external environment. The majority of
the heat generated by the drive is dissipated outside the enclosure,
thereby maintaining a reduced temperature inside the enclosure.
This relies on a good seal being made between the heatsink and the
rear of the enclosure using the gaskets provided.

A current derating must be applied to the drive if the high IP insert is
installed. Derating information is provided in section 11.1.1 Power and current ratings (Derating for switching frequency and temperature) on
page 159.
Failure to do so may result in nuisance tripping.
When designing an IP65 enclosure, refer to Figure 3-29 on page 37 for
an example of an IP65 through-panel layout. Consideration should be
made with regard to the heat dissipation from the front of the drive.

Many cable management features have been incorporated into the
product and accessories, this chapter shows how to optimize them. Key
features include:
•Internal EMC filter
•EMC compliance with shielding / grounding accessories
•Product rating, fusing and cabling information
•Brake resistor details (selection / ratings)
Electric shock risk
The voltages present in the following locations can cause
severe electric shock and may be lethal:
•AC supply cables and connections
•DC and brake cables, and connections
•Output cables and connections
•Many internal parts of the drive, and external option units
Unless otherwise indicated, control terminals are single
insulated and must not be touched.
Isolation device
The AC and / or DC power supply must be disconnected
from the drive using an approved isolation device before any
cover is removed from the drive or before any servicing work
is performed.
STOP function
The STOP function does not remove dangerous voltages
from the drive, the motor or any external option units.
Stored charge
The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a
potentially lethal voltage after the AC and / or DC power
supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been
energized, the AC and / or DC power supply must be
isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.
Normally, the capacitors are discharged by an internal
resistor. Under certain, unusual fault conditions, it is possible
that the capacitors may fail to discharge, or be prevented
from being discharged by a voltage applied to the output
terminals. If the drive has failed in a manner that causes the
display to go blank immediately, it is possible the capacitors
will not be discharged. In this case, consult Control
Techniques or their authorized distributor.

Equipment supplied by plug and socket
Special attention must be given if the drive is installed in
equipment which is connected to the AC supply by a plug
and socket. The AC supply terminals of the drive are
connected to the internal capacitors through rectifier diodes
which are not intended to give safety isolation. If the plug
terminals can be touched when the plug is disconnected
from the socket, a means of automatically isolating the plug
from the drive must be used (e.g. a latching relay).

4.2 AC supply requirements
Voltage:
100 V drive: 100 V to 120 V ±10 %
200 V drive: 200 V to 240 V ±10 %
400 V drive: 380 V to 480 V ±10 %
575 V drive: 500 V to 575 V ±10 %
Number of phases: 3
Maximum supply imbalance: 2 % negative phase sequence (equivalent
to 3 % voltage imbalance between phases).
Frequency range: 48 to 62 Hz
For UL compliance only, the maximum supply symmetrical fault current
must be limited to 100 kA
4.2.1 Supply types
All drives are suitable for use on any supply type i.e TN-S, TN-C-S, TT
and IT.
•Supplies with voltage up to 600 V may have grounding at any
potential, i.e. neutral, centre or corner (“grounded delta”)
•Supplies with voltage above 600 V may not have corner grounding
Drives are suitable for use on supplies of installation category III and
lower, according to IEC60664-1. This means they may be connected
permanently to the supply at its origin in a building, but for outdoor
installation additional over-voltage suppression (transient voltage surge
suppression) must be provided to reduce category IV to category III.
Operation with IT (ungrounded) supplies:
Special attention is required when using internal or external
EMC filters with ungrounded supplies, because in the event
of a ground (earth) fault in the motor circuit the drive may not
trip and the filter could be over-stressed. In this case, either
the filter must not be used i.e. removed, or additional
independent motor ground fault protection must be provided.
For instructions on removal, refer to section 4.8.2 Internal EMC filter on page 63.
For details of ground fault protection contact the supplier of
the drive.

Line reactors are particularly recommended for use with the following
drive models when one of the above factors exists, or when the supply
capacity exceeds 175 kVA. Size 1 to 3.
Model sizes 04200133 to 06500350 have an internal DC choke so they
do not require AC line reactors except for cases of excessive phase
unbalance or extreme supply conditions.
When required, each drive must have its own reactor(s). Three individual
reactors or a single three-phase reactor should be used.
Reactor current ratings
The current rating of the line reactors should be as follows:
Continuous current rating:
Not less than the continuous input current rating of the drive
Repetitive peak current rating:
Not less than twice the continuous input current rating of the drive
4.2.3 Input inductor calculation
To calculate the inductance required (at Y%), use the following equation:
Where:
I = drive rated input current (A)
L = inductance (H)
f = supply frequency (Hz)
V = voltage between lines
A ground fault in the supply has no effect in any case. If the motor must
continue to run with a ground fault in its own circuit, then an input
isolating transformer must be provided, and if an EMC filter is required it
must be located in the primary circuit.
Unusual hazards can occur on ungrounded supplies with more than one
source, for example on ships. Contact the supplier of the drive for more
information.
4.2.2 Supplies requiring line reactors
Input line reactors reduce the risk of damage to the drive resulting from
poor phase balance or severe disturbances on the supply network.
Where line reactors are to be used, reactance values of approximately 2
% are recommended. Higher values may be used if necessary, but may
result in a loss of drive output (reduced torque at high speed) because of
the voltage drop.
For all drive ratings, 2 % line reactors permit drives to be used with a
supply unbalance of up to 3.5 % negative phase sequence (equivalent to
5 % voltage imbalance between phases).
Severe disturbances may be caused by the following factors, for
example:
•Power factor correction equipment connected close to the drive.
•Large DC drives having no or inadequate line reactors connected to
the supply.
•Across the line (DOL) started motor(s) connected to the supply such
that when any of these motors are started, the voltage dip exceeds
20 %.
Such disturbances may cause excessive peak currents to flow in the
input power circuit of the drive. This may cause nuisance tripping, or in
extreme cases, failure of the drive.
Drives of low power rating may also be susceptible to disturbance when
connected to supplies with a high rated capacity.

4.3 24 Vdc supply
The 24 Vdc supply connected to the +24 V supply terminals on the AIBackup adaptor provides the following functions:
•It can be used as a back-up power supply to keep the control circuits
of the drive powered up when the line power supply is removed. This
allows any fieldbus modules or serial communications to continue to
operate. If the line power supply is re-applied, then the normal
operation can carry on after the drive automatically re-initializes the
power board parameters.
•It can be used to clone or load parameters in order to pre-configure
drives when the line power supply is not available. The keypad can
be used to setup parameters if required. However, the drive will be in
the Under Voltage state unless the line power supply is enabled,
therefore diagnostics may not be possible. (Power down save
parameters are not saved when using the 24 V back-up power
supply input).
The working voltage range of the 24 V back-up power supply is as
follows:
0 V0 V
+ 24 V + 24 V Backup supply input
Nominal operating voltage 24.0 Vdc
Minimum continuous operating voltage19.2 V
Maximum continuous operating voltage30.0 V
Minimum start up voltage12.0 V
Minimum power supply requirement at 24 V20 W
Recommended fuse1 A, 50 Vdc
Minimum and maximum voltage values include ripple and noise. Ripple
and noise values must not exceed 5 %.

The input current is affected by the supply voltage and impedance.
Typical input current
The values of typical input current are given to aid calculations for power flow and power loss.
The values of typical input current are stated for a balanced supply.
Maximum continuous input current
The values of maximum continuous input current are given to aid the selection of cables and fuses. These values are stated for the worst case
condition with the unusual combination of stiff supply with bad balance. The value stated for the maximum continuous input current would only be
seen in one of the input phases. The current in the other two phases would be significantly lower.
The values of maximum input current are stated for a supply with a 2 % negative phase-sequence imbalance and rated at the supply fault current
given in Table 4-5.

The nominal cable sizes below are only a guide. The mounting and grouping of cables affects their current-carrying capacity, in some cases
smaller cables may be acceptable but in other cases a larger cable is required to avoid excessive temperature or voltage drop. Refer to
local wiring regulations for the correct size of cables.

PVC insulated cable should be used.
Cable sizes are from IEC60364-5-52:2001 table A.52.C with correction factor for 40°C ambient of 0.87 (from table A52.14) for cable installation
method B2 (multicore cable in conduit).
Installation class (ref: IEC60364-5-52:2001)
B1 - Separate cables in conduit.
B2 - Multicore cable in conduit.
C - Multicore cable in free air.
Cable size may be reduced if a different installation method is used, or if the ambient temperature is lower.
N
The nominal output cable sizes assume that the motor maximum current matches that of the drive. Where a motor of reduced rating is used the cable
rating may be chosen to match that of the motor. To ensure that the motor and cable are protected against overload, the drive must be programmed
with the correct motor rated current.
A fuse or other protection must be included in all live connections to the AC supply.
Fuse types
The fuse voltage rating must be suitable for the drive supply voltage.
MCB
Do not use an MCB instead of the recommended fuses.
Ground connections
The drive must be connected to the system ground of the AC supply. The ground wiring must conform to local regulations and codes of practice.
N
For information on ground cable sizes, refer to Table 4-1 Protective ground cable ratings on page 48.
4.4.1 Main AC supply contactor
The recommended AC supply contactor type for size 1 to 6 is AC1.
4.5 Output circuit and motor protection
The output circuit has fast-acting electronic short-circuit protection which limits the fault current to typically no more than 2.5 times the rated output
current, and interrupts the current in approximately 20 µs. No additional short-circuit protection devices are required.
The drive provides overload protection for the motor and its cable. For this to be effective, Rated Current (00.006) must be set to suit the motor.
Motor Rated Current (00.006) must be set correctly to avoid a risk of fire in the event of motor overload.
There is also provision for the use of a motor thermistor to prevent over-heating of the motor, e.g. due to loss of cooling.
4.5.1 Cable types and lengths
Since capacitance in the motor cable causes loading on the output of the drive, ensure the cable length does not exceed the values given in Table 414, Table 4-15, Table 4-16 and Table 4-17.
Use 105 °C (221 °F) (UL 60/75 °C temp rise) PVC-insulated cable with copper conductors having a suitable voltage rating, for the following power
connections:
•AC supply to external EMC filter (when used)
•AC supply (or external EMC filter) to drive
•Drive to motor
•Drive to braking resistor

4.5.2 High-capacitance / reduced diameter cables
The maximum cable length is reduced from that shown in section
4.5.1 Cable types and lengths on page 56 capacitance or reduced
diameter motor cables are used.
Most cables have an insulating jacket between the cores and the armor
or shield; these cables have a low capacitance and are recommended.
Cables that do not have an insulating jacket tend to have high
capacitance; if a cable of this type is used, the maximum cable length is
half that quoted in the tables, (Figure 4-13 shows how to identify the two
types).
Figure 4-13 Cable construction influencing the capacitance
Normal capacitance
Shield or armour
separated from the cores
High capacitance
Shield or armour close

The maximum motor cable lengths specified section 4.5.1 Cable types
and lengths on page 56 is shielded and contains four cores. Typical
capacitance for this type of cable is 130 pF/m (i.e. from one core to all
others and the shield connected together).
4.5.3 Motor winding voltage
The PWM output voltage can adversely affect the inter-turn insulation in
the motor. This is because of the high rate of change of voltage, in
conjunction with the impedance of the motor cable and the distributed
nature of the motor winding.
For normal operation with AC supplies up to 500 Vac and a standard
motor with a good quality insulation system, there is no need for any
special precautions. In case of doubt the motor supplier should be
consulted. Special precautions are recommended under the following
conditions, but only if the motor cable length exceeds 10 m:
•AC supply voltage exceeds 500 V
•DC supply voltage exceeds 670 V
•Operation of 400 V drive with continuous or very frequent sustained
braking
•Multiple motors connected to a single drive
For multiple motors, the precautions given in section 4.5.4 Multiple motors on page 58 should be followed.
For the other cases listed, it is recommended that an inverter-rated
motor be used taking into account the voltage rating of the inverter. This
has a reinforced insulation system intended by the manufacturer for
repetitive fast-rising pulsed voltage operation.
Users of 575 V NEMA rated motors should note that the specification for
inverter-rated motors given in NEMA MG1 section 31 is sufficient for

motoring operation but not where the motor spends significant periods
braking. In that case an insulation peak voltage rating of 2.2 kV is
recommended.
If it is not practical to use an inverter-rated motor, an output choke
(inductor) should be used. The recommended type is a simple iron-cored
component with a reactance of about 2 %. The exact value is not critical.
This operates in conjunction with the capacitance of the motor cable to
increase the rise-time of the motor terminal voltage and prevent
excessive electrical stress.
4.5.4 Multiple motors
Open-loop only
If the drive is to control more than one motor, one of the fixed V/F modes
should be selected (Pr 05.014 = Fixed or Squared). Make the motor
connections as shown in Figure 4-14 and Figure 4-15. The maximum
cable lengths in Table 4-14 to Table 4-17 apply to the sum of the total
cable lengths from the drive to each motor.
It is recommended that each motor is connected through a protection
relay since the drive cannot protect each motor individually. For
connection, a sinusoidal filter or an output inductor must be connected
as shown in Figure 4-15, even when the cable lengths are less than the
maximum permissible. For details of inductor sizes refer to the supplier
of the drive.

4.5.5 / Δ motor operation
The voltage rating for and Δ connections of the motor should always
be checked before attempting to run the motor.
The default setting of the motor rated voltage parameter is the same as
the drive rated voltage, i.e.
400 V drive 400 V rated voltage
230 V drive 230 V rated voltage
A typical 3 phase motor would be connected in
for 400 V operation or
Δ for 230 V operation, however, variations on this are common e.g.
Δ 400 V.

Incorrect connection of the windings will cause severe under or over
fluxing of the motor, leading to a very poor output torque or motor
saturation and overheating respectively.
4.5.6 Output contactor
If the cable between the drive and the motor is to be
interrupted by a contactor or circuit breaker, ensure that the
drive is disabled before the contactor or circuit breaker is
opened or closed. Severe arcing may occur if this circuit is
interrupted with the motor running at high current and low
speed.
A contactor is sometimes required to be installed between the drive and
motor for safety purposes.
The recommended motor contactor is the AC3 type.
Switching of an output contactor should only occur when the output of
the drive is disabled.
Opening or closing of the contactor with the drive enabled will lead to:
1. OI ac trips (which cannot be reset for 10 seconds)
2. High levels of radio frequency noise emission
3. Increased contactor wear and tear

When the regenerated power is likely to exceed these losses, the DC
bus voltage of the drive increases. Under default conditions, the drive
brakes the motor under PI control, which extends the deceleration time
as necessary in order to prevent the DC bus voltage from rising above a
user defined set-point.
If the drive is expected to rapidly decelerate a load, or to hold back an
overhauling load, a braking resistor must be installed.
Table 4-18 shows the default DC voltage level at which the drive turns on
the braking transistor. However the braking resistor turn on and the turn
off voltages are programmable with Braking IGBT Lower Threshold
(06.073) and Braking IGBT Upper Threshold (06.074).

When a braking resistor is used, Pr 02.004 should be set to Fast ramp
mode.
High temperatures
Braking resistors can reach high temperatures. Locate
braking resistors so that damage cannot result. Use cable
having insulation capable of withstanding high temperatures.
Failure to observe the following information may damage
the resistor.
The drive software contains an overload protection function
for a braking resistor.
For more information on the braking resistor software
overload protection, see Pr 10.030, Pr 10.031 and
Pr 10.061 full descriptions in the Parameter Reference Guide.
4.6.1 External braking resistor
Overload protection
When an external braking resistor is used, it is essential that
an overload protection device is incorporated in the braking
resistor circuit; this is described in Figure 4-16 on page 60.
When a braking resistor is to be mounted outside the enclosure, ensure
that it is mounted in a ventilated metal housing that will perform the
following functions:
•Prevent inadvertent contact with the resistor
•Allow adequate ventilation for the resistor
When compliance with EMC emission standards is required, external
connection requires the cable to be armored or shielded, since it is not
fully contained in a metal enclosure. See section 4.8.5 Compliance with generic emission standards on page 66 for further details.
Internal connection does not require the cable to be armored or
shielded.
4.6 Braking
Braking occurs when the drive is decelerating the motor, or is preventing
the motor from gaining speed due to mechanical influences. During
braking, energy is returned to the drive from the motor.
When motor braking is applied by the drive, the maximum regenerated
power that the drive can absorb is equal to the power dissipation
(losses) of the drive.

* Resistor tolerance: ±10 %
For high-inertia loads or under continuous braking, the continuous power
dissipated in the braking resistor may be as high as the power rating of
the drive. The total energy dissipated in the braking resistor is dependent
on the amount of energy to be extracted from the load.
The instantaneous power rating refers to the short-term maximum power
dissipated during the on intervals of the pulse width modulated braking
control cycle. The braking resistor must be able to withstand this
dissipation for short intervals (milliseconds). Higher resistance values
require proportionately lower instantaneous power ratings.
In most applications, braking occurs only occasionally. This allows the
continuous power rating of the braking resistor to be much lower than
the power rating of the drive. It is therefore essential that the
instantaneous power rating and energy rating of the braking resistor are
sufficient for the most extreme braking duty that is likely to be
encountered.
Optimization of the braking resistor requires careful consideration of the
braking duty.
Select a value of resistance for the braking resistor that is not less than
the specified minimum resistance. Larger resistance values may give a
cost saving, as well as a safety benefit in the event of a fault in the
braking system. Braking capability will then be reduced, which could
cause the drive to trip during braking if the value chosen is too large.
Thermal protection circuit for the braking resistor
The thermal protection circuit must disconnect the AC supply from the
drive if the resistor becomes overloaded due to a fault. Figure 4-16
shows a typical circuit arrangement.
Figure 4-16 Typical protection circuit for a braking resistor
60 Unidrive M200 / M201 User Guide
See Figure 4-1 on page 45 to Figure 4-6 on page 47 for the location of
the +DC and braking resistor connections.
The drive software contains an overload protection function for a braking
resistor. In order to enable and set-up this function, it is necessary to
enter three values into the drive:
•Braking Resistor Rated Power (10.030)
•Braking Resistor Thermal Time Constant (10.031)
•Braking Resistor Resistance (10.061)
This data should be obtained from the manufacturer of the braking
resistors.
Pr 10.039 gives an indication of braking resistor temperature based on a
simple thermal model. Zero indicates the resistor is close to ambient and
100 % is the maximum temperature the resistor can withstand. A ‘br.rES’
alarm is given if this parameter is above 75 % and the braking IGBT is
active. An It.br trip will occur if Pr 10.039 reaches 100 %, when
Pr 10.037 is set to 0 (default value) or 1.
If Pr 10.037 is equal to 2 or 3, an It.br trip will not occur when Pr 10.039
reaches 100 %, but instead the braking IGBT will be disabled until
Pr 10.039 falls below 95 %. This option is intended for applications with
parallel connected DC buses where there are several braking resistors,
each of which cannot withstand full DC bus voltage continuously. With
this type of application it is unlikely the braking energy will be shared
equally between the resistors because of voltage measurement
tolerances within the individual drives. Therefore with Pr 10.037 set to 2
or 3, then as soon as a resistor has reached its maximum temperature
the drive will disable the braking IGBT, and another resistor on another
drive will take up the braking energy. Once Pr 10.039 has fallen below
95 % the drive will allow the braking IGBT to operate again.
See the Parameter Reference Guide for more information on Pr 10.030,
Pr 10.031, Pr 10.037 and Pr 10.039.
This software overload protection should be used in addition to an
external overload protection device.
4.7 Ground leakage
The ground leakage current depends upon whether the internal EMC
filter is installed or not. The drive is supplied with the filter installed.
Instructions for removing the internal filter are given in section
4.8.2 Internal EMC filter on page 63.
With internal filter installed:
Size 1:
2.5 mA* AC at 230 V 50 Hz (line to line supply, star point ground)
9.2 mA* AC at 230 V 50 Hz (line to neutral supply, star point ground)

With internal filter removed:
Size 1: <1.5 mA (line to line supply, star point ground)
<1 mA (line to neutral supply, star point ground)
Size 2: <1.7 mA (line to line supply, star point ground)
<1.9 mA (line to neutral supply, star point ground)
Size 3: <3.3 mA (star point ground)
<4.9 mA (corner ground)
Size 4: < 3.5 mA (star point ground)
The above leakage currents are just the leakage currents of the drive
with the internal EMC filter connected and do not take into account any
leakage currents of the motor or motor cable.
When the internal filter is installed the leakage current is
high. In this case a permanent fixed ground connection must
be provided, or other suitable measures taken to prevent a
safety hazard occurring if the connection is lost.
When the leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA, a permanent
fixed ground connection must be provided using two
independent conductors each with a cross-section equal to
or exceeding that of the supply conductors. The drive is
provided with two ground connections to facilitate this. Both
ground connections are necessary to meet EN 61800-5-1:
2007.
4.7.1 Use of residual current device (RCD)
There are three common types of ELCB / RCD:
1. AC - detects AC fault currents
2. A - detects AC and pulsating DC fault currents (provided the DC
current reaches zero at least once every half cycle)
3. B - detects AC, pulsating DC and smooth DC fault currents
•Type AC should never be used with drives.
•Type A can only be used with single phase drives
•Type B must be used with three phase drives
Only type B ELCB / RCD are suitable for use with 3 phase
inverter drives.
If an external EMC filter is used, a delay of at least 50 ms should be
incorporated to ensure spurious trips are not seen. The leakage current
is likely to exceed the trip level if all of the phases are not energized
simultaneously.

4.8 EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility)
The requirements for EMC are divided into three levels in the following
three sections:
Section 4.10.3, General requirements for all applications, to ensure
reliable operation of the drive and minimise the risk of disturbing nearby
equipment. The immunity standards specified in Chapter 11 Technical data on page 159 will be met, but no specific emission standards are
applied. Note also the special requirements given in Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and connections outside a building on
page 68 for increased surge immunity of control circuits where control
wiring is extended.
Section 4.8.4, Requirements for meeting the EMC standard for
power drive systems, IEC61800-3 (EN 61800-3:2004).
Section 4.8.5, Requirements for meeting the generic emission
standards for the industrial environment, IEC61000-6-4, EN 61000-6-
4:2007.
The recommendations of section 4.8.3 General requirements for EMC
on page 65 will usually be sufficient to avoid causing disturbance to
adjacent equipment of industrial quality. If particularly sensitive
equipment is to be used nearby, or in a non-industrial environment, then
the recommendations of section 4.8.4 or section 4.8.5 should be
followed to give reduced radio-frequency emission.
In order to ensure the installation meets the various emission standards
described in:
•The EMC data sheet available from the supplier of the drive
•The Declaration of Conformity at the front of this manual
•Chapter 11 Technical data on page 159
The correct external EMC filter must be used and all of the guidelines in
section 4.8.3 General requirements for EMC on page 65 and section
4.8.5 Compliance with generic emission standards on page 66 must be
followed.

The installer of the drive is responsible for ensuring compliance with the
EMC regulations that apply in the country in which the drive is to be
used.
4.8.1 Grounding hardware
The drive is supplied with a grounding bracket / clamp to facilitate EMC
compliance. This provides a convenient method for direct grounding of
cable shields without the use of "pig-tails”. Cable shields can be bared
and clamped to the grounding bracket using metal clips or clamps
supplied) or cable ties. Note that the shield must in all cases be
continued through the clamp to the intended terminal on the drive, in
accordance with the connection details for the specific signal.

The grounding clamp is secured using the provided 2 x M4 x 10 mm
fasteners. The fasteners should be tightened with the maximum torque

4.8.2 Internal EMC filter
It is recommended that the internal EMC filter be kept in place unless
there is a specific reason for removing it. If the drive is used as a
motoring drive as part of a regen system, then the internal EMC filter
must be removed.
The internal EMC filter reduces radio-frequency emission into the line
power supply. Where the motor cable is short, it permits the
requirements of EN 61800-3:2004 to be met for the second environment
- see section 4.8.4 Compliance with EN 61800-3:2004 (standard for
Power Drive Systems) on page 66 and section on page 176. For longer
motor cables the filter continues to provide a useful reduction in
emission levels, and when used with any length of shielded motor cable
up to the limit for the drive, it is unlikely that nearby industrial equipment
will be disturbed. It is recommended that the filter be used in all
applications unless the instructions given above require it to be
removed, or where the ground leakage current of 9.2 mA for size 1 is
unacceptable. As shown in Figure 4-21 the size 1 internal EMC filter is
removed by removing the screw (1).
The supply must be disconnected before removing the
internal EMC filter.

4.8.3 General requirements for EMC
Ground (earth) connections
The grounding arrangements should be in accordance with Figure 4-27, which shows a single drive on a back-plate with or without an additional
enclosure.
Figure 4-27 shows how to configure and minimise EMC when using unshielded motor cable. However shielded cable is a better option, in which case
it should be installed as shown in section 4.8.5 Compliance with generic emission standards on page 66.

Operation in the second environment
In all cases a shielded motor cable must be used, and an EMC filter is
required for all drives with a rated input current of less than 100 A.
The drive contains an in-built filter for basic emission control. In some
cases feeding the motor cables (U, V and W) once through a ferrite ring
can maintain compliance for longer cable lengths.
For longer motor cables, an external filter is required. Where a filter is
required, follow the guidelines in Section 4.8.5 Compliance with generic emission standards .
Where a filter is not required, follow the guidelines given in section
4.8.3 General requirements for EMC on page 65.
The second environment typically includes an industrial lowvoltage power supply network which does not supply
buildings used for residential purposes. Operating the drive in
this environment without an external EMC filter may cause
interference to nearby electronic equipment whose sensitivity
has not been appreciated. The user must take remedial
measures if this situation arises. If the consequences of
unexpected disturbances are severe, it is recommended that
the guidelines in Section 4.8.5 Compliance with generic emission standards be adhered to.
Refer to section 11.1.25 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) on
page 176 for further information on compliance with EMC standards and
definitions of environments.
Detailed instructions and EMC information are given in the EMC Data Sheet which is available from the supplier of the drive.
4.8.5 Compliance with generic emission standards
The following information applies to frame sizes 1 to 6.
Use the recommended filter and shielded motor cable. Observe the
layout rules given in Figure 4-29. Ensure the AC supply and ground
cables are at least 100 mm from the power module and motor cable.
Figure 4-29 Supply and ground cable clearance (sizes 1 to 6)
N
Any signal cables which are carried inside the motor cable (i.e. motor
thermistor, motor brake) will pick up large pulse currents via the cable
capacitance. The shield of these signal cables must be connected to
ground close to the motor cable, to avoid this noise current spreading
through the control system.
4.8.4 Compliance with EN 61800-3:2004 (standard
for Power Drive Systems)
Meeting the requirements of this standard depends on the environment
that the drive is intended to operate in, as follows:
Operation in the first environment
Observe the guidelines given in section 4.8.5 Compliance with generic
emission standards on page 66. An external EMC filter will always be
required.
This is a product of the restricted distribution class according
to IEC 61800-3
In a residential environment this product may cause radio
interference in which case the user may be required to take
adequate measures.

A complete 360
termination of the shield to the terminal housing of the
motor is beneficial.
From an EMC consideration it is irrelevant whether the motor cable
contains an internal (safety) ground core, or if there is a separate
external ground conductor, or where grounding is through the shield
alone. An internal ground core will carry a high noise current and
therefore it must be terminated as close as possible to the shield
termination.

4.8.6 Variations in the EMC wiring
Interruptions to the motor cable
The motor cable should ideally be a single length of shielded or armored
cable having no interruptions. In some situations it may be necessary to
interrupt the cable, as in the following examples:
•Connecting the motor cable to a terminal block in the drive enclosure
•Installing a motor isolator / disconnect switch for safety when work is
done on the motor
In these cases the following guidelines should be followed.
Terminal block in the enclosure
The motor cable shields should be bonded to the back-plate using
uninsulated metal cable-clamps which should be positioned as close as
possible to the terminal block. Keep the length of power conductors to a
minimum and ensure that all sensitive equipment and circuits are at
least 0.3 m (12 in) away from the terminal block.

Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and
connections outside a building
The input/output ports for the control circuits are designed for general
use within machines and small systems without any special precautions.
These circuits meet the requirements of EN 61000-6-2:2005 (1 kV
surge) provided the 0 V connection is not grounded.
In applications where they may be exposed to high-energy voltage
surges, some special measures may be required to prevent malfunction
or damage. Surges may be caused by lightning or severe power faults in
association with grounding arrangements which permit high transient
voltages between nominally grounded points. This is a particular risk
where the circuits extend outside the protection of a building.
As a general rule, if the circuits are to pass outside the building where
the drive is located, or if cable runs within a building exceed 30 m, some
additional precautions are advisable. One of the following techniques
should be used:
1. Galvanic isolation, i.e. do not connect the control 0 V terminal to
ground. Avoid loops in the control wiring, i.e. ensure every control
wire is accompanied by its return (0 V) wire.
2. Shielded cable with additional power ground bonding. The cable
shield may be connected to ground at both ends, but in addition the
ground conductors at both ends of the cable must be bonded
together by a power ground cable (equipotential bonding cable) with
cross-sectional area of at least 10 mm
signal cable shield, or to suit the electrical safety requirements of the
plant. This ensures that fault or surge current passes mainly through
the ground cable and not in the signal cable shield. If the building or
plant has a well-designed common bonded network this precaution
is not necessary.
3. Additional over-voltage suppression - for the analog and digital
inputs and outputs, a zener diode network or a commercially
available surge suppressor may be connected in parallel with the
input circuit as shown in Figure 4-37 and Figure 4-38.
If a digital port experiences a severe surge its protective trip may operate
(O.Ld1 trip). For continued operation after such an event, the trip can be
reset automatically by setting Pr 10.034 to 5.

outputs

, or 10 times the area of the
Using a motor isolator / disconnect-switch
The motor cable shields should be connected by a very short conductor
having a low inductance. The use of a flat metal coupling-bar is
recommended; conventional wire is not suitable.
The shields should be bonded directly to the coupling-bar using
uninsulated metal cable-clamps. Keep the length of the exposed power
conductors to a minimum and ensure that all sensitive equipment and
circuits are at least 0.3 m (12 in) away.

Surge suppression devices are available as rail-mounting modules, e.g.
from Phoenix Contact:
Unipolar TT-UKK5-D/24 DC
Bipolar TT-UKK5-D/24 AC
These devices are not suitable for encoder signals or fast digital data
networks because the capacitance of the diodes adversely affects the
signal. Most encoders have galvanic isolation of the signal circuit from
the motor frame, in which case no precautions are required. For data
networks, follow the specific recommendations for the particular
network.
4.9 Communications connections
Installing an AI-485 Adaptor provides the drive with a 2 wire 485 serial
communications interface. This enables the drive set-up, operation and
monitoring to be carried out with a PC or controller as required.

4.9.1 485 serial communications
The drive only supports Modbus RTU protocol. See Table 4-24 for the
connection details.
Standard Ethernet cables are not recommended for use when
connecting drives on a 485 network as they do not have the correct
twisted pairs for the pinout of the serial comms port.

4.9.2 Isolation of the 485 serial communications
port
The serial PC communications port is single insulated and meets the
requirements for ELV.
When using the communications port with a personal
computer or centralised controller e.g. PLC, an isolation
device must be included with a rated voltage at least equal
to the drive supply voltage. Ensure that the correct fuses are
installed at the drive input, and that the drive is connected to
the correct supply voltage.
If a serial communications converter other than the CT
Comms cable is used to connect to other circuits classified
as Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) (e.g. to a personal
computer), then a safety isolating barrier must be included to
maintain the SELV classification.
An isolated serial communications lead has been designed to connect
the drive to IT equipment (such as laptop computers), and is available
from the supplier of the drive. See below for details:
Table 4-26 Isolated serial comms lead details

All digital terminal functions (including the relay) can be programmed in
menu 8.
The control circuits are isolated from the power circuits in the
drive by basic insulation (single insulation) only. The installer
must ensure that the external control circuits are insulated
from human contact by at least one layer of insulation
(supplementary insulation) rated for use at the AC supply
voltage.
If the control circuits are to be connected to other circuits
classified as Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) (e.g. to a
personal computer), an additional isolating barrier must be
included in order to maintain the SELV classification.
If any of the digital inputs (including the drive enable input)
are connected in parallel with an inductive load (i.e.
contactor or motor brake) then suitable suppression (i.e.
diode or varistor) should be used on the coil of the load. If no
suppression is used then over voltage spikes can cause
damage to the digital inputs and outputs on the drive.
N
Any signal cables which are carried inside the motor cable (i.e. motor
thermistor, motor brake) will pick up large pulse currents via the cable
capacitance. The shield of these signal cables must be connected to
ground close to the point of exit of the motor cable, to avoid this noise
current spreading through the control system.

once Pr 00.010 has been set to 'All' the up and down buttons are used to
navigate between menus.
For further information refer to section 5.9 Parameter access level and security on page 76.
The menus and parameters rollover in both directions i.e. if the last
parameter is displayed, a further press will cause the display to rollover
and show the first parameter.
When changing between menus, the drive remembers which parameter
was last viewed in a particular menu and thus displays that parameter.
5.4 Menu 0
Menu 0 is used to bring together various commonly used parameters for
basic easy set up of the drive. The parameters displayed in Menu 0 can
be configured in Menu 22.
Appropriate parameters are copied from the advanced menus into Menu
0 and thus exist in both locations.
For further information, refer to Chapter 6 Basic parameters on page 78.
Figure 5-5 Menu 0 copying
Do not change parameter values without careful
consideration; incorrect values may cause damage or a
safety hazard.
When changing the values of parameters, make a note of the new
values in case they need to be entered again.
For new parameter values to apply after the line power supply to the
drive is interrupted, new values must be saved. Refer to section
5.7 Saving parameters on page 75.

5.9.2 Changing the User Security Level /Access
Level
The security level is determined by the setting of Pr 00.010 or Pr 11.044.
The Security Level can be changed through the keypad even if the User
Security Code has been set.
5.9.3 User Security Code
The User Security Code, when set, prevents write access to any of the
parameters in any menu.
Setting User Security Code
Enter a value between 1 and 9999 in Pr 00.025 and press the
button; the security code has now been set to this value. In order to
activate the security, the Security level must be set to desired level in
Pr 00.010. When the drive is reset, the security code will have been
activated and the drive returns to Menu 0. The value of Pr 00.025 will
return to 0 in order to hide the security code.
Unlocking User Security Code
Select a parameter that need to be edited and press the button,
the display will now show ‘Co’. Use the arrow buttons to set the security
code and press the button. With the correct security code
entered, the display will revert to the parameter selected in edit mode.
If an incorrect security code is entered, the following message ‘Co.Err’ is
displayed, and the display will revert to parameter view mode.
Disabling User Security
Unlock the previously set security code as detailed above. Set Pr 00.025
to 0 and press the button. The User Security has now been
disabled, and will not have to be unlocked each time the drive is
powered up to allow read / write access to the parameters.

5.12 Communications
Installing an AI-485 Adaptor provides the drive with a 2 wire 485 serial
communications interface. This enables the drive set-up, operation and
monitoring to be carried out with a PC or controller as required.
5.12.1 485 Serial communications
Communication is via the RJ45 connector or screw terminals (parallel
connection). The drive only supports Modbus RTU protocol.
1
The communications port applies a
network.
USB to EIA485 Communications
An external USB hardware interface such as a PC cannot be used
directly with the 2-wire EIA485 interface of the drive. Therefore a
suitable converter is required.
A suitable USB to EIA485 isolated converter is available from Control
Techniques as follows:
•CT USB Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0096)
When using one of the above converters or any other suitable converter
with the drive, it is recommended that no terminating resistors be
connected on the network. It may be necessary to 'link out' the
terminating resistor within the converter depending on which type is used.
The information on how to link out the terminating resistor will normally be
contained in the user information supplied with the converter.
Serial communications set-up parameters
The following parameters need to be set according to the system
requirements.

changed via the drive keypad,
via a option module or via the
comms interface itself.
This parameter can be
changed via the drive keypad,
via a option module or via the
comms interface itself. If it is
changed via the comms
interface, the response to the

This chapter takes the new user through all the essential steps to
running a motor for the first time, in each of the possible operating
modes.
For information on tuning the drive for the best performance, see
Chapter 8 Optimization on page 89.
Ensure that no damage or safety hazard could arise from the
motor starting unexpectedly.
The values of the motor parameters 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 Pr 00.006Motor Rated Current. This affects the thermal protection of
the motor.
If the drive is started using the keypad it will run to the speed
defined by the keypad reference (Pr 01.017). This may not
be acceptable depending on the application. The user must
check in Pr 01.017 and ensure that the keypad reference
has been set to 0.
If the intended maximum speed affects the safety of the
machinery, additional independent over-speed protection
must be used.
7.2 Changing the operating mode
Procedure
Use the following procedure only if a different operating mode is
required:
1. Ensure that the drive is not enabled, i.e. terminal 11 is open or
Pr 06.015 is OFF(0).
2. Change the setting of Pr 00.079 as follows:

8.1 Motor map parameters
8.1.1 Open loop motor control
Pr 00.006 {05.007} Motor Rated CurrentDefines the maximum continuous motor current
•The rated current parameter must be set to the maximum continuous current of the motor. The motor rated current is used in the following:
•Current limits (see section section 8.3 Current limits on page 95, for more information)
•Motor thermal overload protection (see section section 8.4 Motor thermal protection on page 95, for more information)
•Vector mode voltage control (see Control Mode later in this table)
•Slip compensation (see Enable Slip Compensation (05.027), later in this table)
•Dynamic V/F control
Pr 00.008 {05.009} Motor Rated VoltageDefines the voltage applied to the motor at rated frequency
Pr 00.039 {05.006} Motor Rated FrequencyDefines the frequency at which rated voltage is applied
The Motor Rated Voltage (00.008) and the Motor Rated Frequency (00.039) are used to define the voltage to frequency characteristic applied to the
motor (see Control Mode, later in this table). The Motor Rated Frequency is also used in conjunction with the motor rated speed to calculate the
rated slip for slip compensation (see Motor Rated Speed, later in this table).
Pr 00.007 {05.008} Motor Rated SpeedDefines the full load rated speed of the motor
Pr 00.040 {05.011} Number of Motor PolesDefines the number of motor poles
The motor rated speed and the number of poles are used with the motor rated frequency to calculate the rated slip of induction machines in Hz.
Rated slip (Hz) = Motor rated frequency - (Number of pole pairs x [Motor rated speed / 60]) =
If Pr 00.007 is set to 0 or to synchronous speed, slip compensation is disabled. If slip compensation is required this parameter should be set to the
nameplate value, which should give the correct rpm for a hot machine. Sometimes it will be necessary to adjust this when the drive is commissioned
because the nameplate value may be inaccurate. Slip compensation will operate correctly both below base speed and within the field-weakening
region. Slip compensation is normally used to correct for the motor speed to prevent speed variation with load. The rated load rpm can be set higher
than synchronous speed to deliberately introduce speed droop. This can be useful to aid load sharing with mechanically coupled motors.
Pr 00.040 is also used in the calculation of the motor speed display by the drive for a given output frequency. When Pr 00.040 is set to ‘Auto’, the
number of motor poles is automatically calculated from the rated frequency Pr 00.039, and the motor rated speed Pr 00.007.
Number of poles = 120 x (Rated Frequency (00.039) / Rated Speed (00.007)) rounded to the nearest even number.
Pr 00.043 {05.010} Motor Rated Power FactorDefines the angle between the motor voltage and current
The power factor is the true power factor of the motor, i.e. the angle between the motor voltage and current. The power factor is used in conjunction
with the Motor Rated Current (00.006), to calculate the rated active current and magnetising current of the motor. The rated active current is used
extensively to control the drive, and the magnetising current is used in vector mode stator resistance compensation. It is important that this
parameter is set up correctly. The drive can measure the motor rated power factor by performing a rotating autotune (see Autotune (Pr 00.038),
below).

Pr 00.038 {05.012} Autotune
There are two autotune tests available in open loop mode, a stationary and a rotating test. A rotating autotune should be used whenever possible so
the measured value of power factor of the motor is used by the drive.
•A stationary autotune can be used when the motor is loaded and it is not possible to remove the load from the motor shaft. The stationary test
measures the Stator Resistance (05.017), Transient Inductance (05.024), Maximum Deadtime Compensation (05.059) and Current At Maximum Deadtime Compensation (05.060) which are required for good performance in vector control modes (see Control Mode later in this
table). The stationary autotune does not measure the power factor of the motor so the value on the motor nameplate must be entered into
Pr 00.009. To perform a Stationary autotune, set Pr 00.038 to 1, and provide the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal 11) and a run
signal (on terminals 12 or 13).
•A rotating autotune should only be used if the motor is unloaded. A rotating autotune first performs a stationary autotune, as above, then a
rotating test is performed in which the motor is accelerated with currently selected ramps up to a frequency of Motor Rated Frequency (05.006)
x 2/3, and the frequency is maintained at that level for 4 seconds. Stator Inductance (05.025) is measured and this value is used in conjunction
with other motor parameters to calculate Motor Rated Power Factor (05.010). To perform a Rotating autotune, set Pr 00.038 to 2, and provide
the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal 11) and a run signal (on terminals 12 or 13).
Following the completion of an autotune test the drive will go into the inhibit state. The drive must be placed into a controlled disable condition
before the drive can be made to run at the required reference. The drive can be put in to a controlled disable condition by removing the signal from
terminal 11, setting the Drive Enable (06.015) to OFF (0) or disabling the drive via the Control Word (06.042) and Control Word Enable (06.043).
Pr 00.041 {05.014} Control Mode
There are several voltage modes available which fall into two categories, vector control and fixed boost.
Vector control
Vector control mode provides the motor with a linear voltage characteristic from 0 Hz to Motor Rated Frequency, and then a constant voltage above
motor rated frequency. When the drive operates between motor rated frequency/50 and motor rated frequency/4, full vector based stator resistance
compensation is applied. When the drive operates between motor rated frequency/4 and motor rated frequency/2 the stator resistance
compensation is gradually reduced to zero as the frequency increases. For the vector modes to operate correctly the Motor Rated Power Factor,
Stator Resistance (05.017), Maximum Deadtime Compensation (05.059) and current at Maximum Deadtime Compensation (05.060) are all required
to be set up accurately. The drive can be made to measure these by performing an autotune (see Pr 00.038 Autotune). The drive can also be made
to measure the stator resistance automatically every time the drive is enabled or the first time the drive is enabled after it is powered up, by selecting
one of the vector control voltage modes.
(0) Ur S = The stator resistance is measured and the parameters for the selected motor map are over-written each time the drive is made to
run. This test can only be done with a stationary motor where the flux has decayed to zero. Therefore this mode should only be used if the motor
is guaranteed to be stationary each time the drive is made to run. To prevent the test from being done before the flux has decayed there is a
period of 1 second after the drive has been in the ready state during which the test is not done if the drive is made to run again. In this case,
previously measured values are used. Ur S mode ensures that the drive compensates for any change in motor parameters due to changes in
temperature. The new value of stator resistance is not automatically saved to the drive's EEPROM.
(4) Ur I = The stator resistance is measured when the drive is first made to run after each power-up. This test can only be done with a stationary
motor. Therefore this mode should only be used if the motor is guaranteed to be stationary the first time the drive is made to run after each
power-up. The new value of stator resistance is not automatically saved to the drive's EEPROM.
(1) Ur = The stator resistance and voltage offset are not measured. The user can enter the motor and cabling resistance into the Stator Resistance (05.017). However this will not include resistance effects within the drive inverter. Therefore if this mode is to be used, it is best to
use an autotune test initially to measure the stator resistance.
(3) Ur_Auto= The stator resistance is measured once, the first time the drive is made to run. After the test has been completed successfully the
Control Mode (00.041) is changed to Ur mode. The Stator Resistance (05.017) parameter is written to, and along with the Control Mode
(00.041), are saved in the drive's EEPROM. If the test fails, the voltage mode will stay set to Ur Auto and the test will be repeated next time the
drive is made to run.
Fixed boost
The stator resistance is not used in the control of the motor, instead a fixed characteristic with low frequency voltage boost as defined by Pr 00.042,
is used. Fixed boost mode should be used when the drive is controlling multiple motors. There are two settings of fixed boost available:
ixed = This mode provides the motor with a linear voltage characteristic from 0 Hz to Motor Rated Frequency (00.039), and then a constant
(2) F
voltage above rated frequency.
(5) Square = This mode provides the motor with a square law voltage characteristic from 0 Hz to Motor Rated Frequency (00.039), and then a
constant voltage above rated frequency. This mode is suitable for variable torque applications like fans and pumps where the load is
proportional to the square of the speed of the motor shaft. This mode should not be used if a high starting torque is required.

Pr 00.041 {05.014} Control Mode (cont)
For both these modes, at low frequencies (from 0 Hz to ½ x Pr 00.039) a voltage boost is applied as defined by Pr 00.042 as shown below:
Pr 05.027 Enable Slip Compensation
When a motor, being controlled in open loop mode, has load applied a characteristic of the motor is that the output speed droops in proportion to the
load applied as shown:
In order to prevent the speed droop shown above slip compensation should be enabled. To enable slip compensation Pr 05.027 must be set to a 1
(this is the default setting), and the motor rated speed must be entered in Pr 00.007 (Pr 05.008).
The motor rated speed parameter should be set to the synchronous speed of the motor minus the slip speed. This is normally displayed on the
motor nameplate, i.e. for a typical 18.5 kW, 50 Hz, 4 pole motor, the motor rated speed would be approximately 1465 rpm. The synchronous speed
for a 50 Hz, 4 pole motor is 1500 rpm, so therefore the slip speed would be 35 rpm. If the synchronous speed is entered in Pr 00.007, slip
compensation will be disabled. If too small a value is entered in Pr 00.007, the motor will run faster than the demanded frequency. The synchronous
speeds for 50 Hz motors with different numbers of poles are as follows:
2 pole = 3000 rpm, 4 pole = 1500 rpm, 6pole =1000 rpm, 8 pole = 750 rpm

8.1.2 RFC-A mode
Induction motor without Position feedback
Pr 00.006 {05.007} Motor Rated CurrentDefines the maximum motor continuous current
The motor rated current parameter must be set to the maximum continuous current of the motor. The motor rated current is used in the following:
•Current limits (see section 8.3 Current limits on page 95, for more information).
•Motor thermal overload protection (see section 8.4 Motor thermal protection on page 95, for more information)
•Vector control algorithm
Pr 00.008 {05.009} Motor Rated VoltageDefines the voltage applied to the motor at rated frequency
Pr 00.039 {05.006} Motor Rated FrequencyDefines the frequency at which rated voltage is applied
The Motor Rated Voltage (00.008) and the Motor Rated Frequency
(Pr 00.039) are used to define the voltage to frequency characteristic
applied to the motor. The motor rated frequency is also used in
conjunction with the motor rated speed to calculate the rated slip for slip
compensation (see Motor Rated Speed (00.007), later in this table).
Pr 00.007 {05.008} Motor Rated SpeedDefines the full load rated speed of the motor
Pr 00.040 {05.011} Number of Motor PolesDefines the number of motor poles
The motor rated speed and motor rated frequency are used to determine the full load slip of the motor which is used by the vector control algorithm.
Incorrect setting of this parameter has the following effects:
•Reduced efficiency of motor operation
•Reduction of maximum torque available from the motor
•Reduced transient performance
•Inaccurate control of absolute torque in torque control modes
The nameplate value is normally the value for a hot motor; however, some adjustment may be required when the drive is commissioned if the
nameplate value is inaccurate. A fixed value can be entered in this parameter.
When Pr 00.040 is set to 'Auto', the number of motor poles is automatically calculated from the Motor Rated Frequency (00.039), and the MotorRated Speed (00.007).
Number of poles = 120 x (Motor Rated Frequency (00.039 / Motor Rated Speed (00.007) rounded to the nearest even number.
Pr 00.009 {5.10} Motor Rated Power FactorDefines the angle between the motor voltage and current
The power factor is the true power factor of the motor, i.e. the angle between the motor voltage and current. If the Stator Inductance (05.025) is set
to zero then the power factor is used in conjunction with the Motor Rated Current (00.006) and other motor parameters to calculate the rated active
and magnetising currents of the motor, which are used in the vector control algorithm. If the stator inductance has a non-zero value this parameter
is not used by the drive, but is continuously written with a calculated value of power factor. The stator inductance can be measured by the drive by
performing a rotating autotune (see Autotune (Pr 00.038), later in this table).

Pr 00.038 {05.012} Autotune
There are three autotune tests available in RFC-A mode, a stationary test, a rotating test and an inertia measurement test. A stationary autotune will
give moderate performance whereas a rotating autotune will give improved performance as it measures the actual values of the motor parameters
required by the drive. An inertia measurement test should be performed separately to a stationary or rotating autotune.
It is highly recommended that a rotating autotune is performed (Pr 00.038 set to 2).
•A stationary autotune can be used when the motor is loaded and it is not possible to remove the load from the motor shaft. The stationary
autotune measures the Stator Resistance (05.017) and Transient Inductance (05.024) of the motor. These are used to calculate the current loop
gains, and at the end of the test the values in Pr 04.013 and Pr 04.014 are updated. A stationary autotune does not measure the power factor of
the motor so the value on the motor nameplate must be entered into Pr 00.009. To perform a Stationary autotune, set Pr 00.038 to 1, and
provide the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal 11) and a run signal (on terminal 12 or 13).
•A rotating autotune should only be used if the motor is unloaded. A rotating autotune first performs a stationary autotune, a rotating test is then
performed which the motor is accelerated with currently selected ramps up to a frequency of Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) x 2/3, and the
frequency is maintained at the level for up to 40 s. During the rotating autotune the Stator Inductance (05.025), and the motor saturation
breakpoints (Pr 05.029, Pr 05.030, Pr 05.062 and Pr 05.063) are modified by the drive. The power factor is also modified for user information
only, but is not used after this point as the stator inductance is used in the vector control algorithm instead. To perform a Rotating autotune, set
Pr 00.038 to 2, and provide the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal 11) and a run signal (on terminal 12 or 13).
•The inertia measurement test can measure the total inertia of the load and the motor. This is used to set the speed loop gains (see Frequency
loop gains) and to provide torque feed-forwards when required during acceleration. During the inertia measurement test motor is accelerated
with the currently selected ramps up to a speed of Motor Rated Speed (05.008) / 4, and this speed is maintained at this level for 60 seconds.
The Motor And Load Inertia (03.018) is measured. If the required speed is not achieved on the final attempt the test is aborted and an Autotune
trip is initiated. To perform an Inertia measurement autotune, set Pr 00.038 to 3, and provide the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal
11) and a run signal (on terminal 12 or 13). Following the completion of an autotune test the drive will go into the inhibit state. The drive must be
placed into a controlled disable condition before the drive can be made to run at the required reference. The drive can be put in to a controlled
disable condition by removing the drive enable signal from terminal 11, setting the Drive Enable (06.015) to OFF (0) or disabling the drive via the
control word (Pr 06.042 & Pr 06.043).
{04.013} / {04.014} Current Loop Gains
The current loop gains proportional (Kp) and integral (Ki) gains control the response of the current loop to a change in current (torque) demand. The
default values give satisfactory operation with most motors. However, for optimal performance in dynamic applications it may be necessary to
change the gains to improve the performance. The Current Controller Kp Gain (04.013) is the most critical value in controlling the performance. The
values for the current loop gains can be calculated by performing a stationary or rotating autotune (see Autotune Pr 00.038 earlier in this table) the
drive measures the Stator Resistance (05.017) and Transient Inductance (05.024) of the motor and calculates the current loop gains.
This will give a step response with minimum overshoot after a step change of current reference. The proportional gain can be increased by a factor
of 1.5 giving a similar increase in bandwidth; however, this gives a step response with approximately 12.5 % overshoot. The equation for the integral
gain gives a conservative value. In some applications where it is necessary for the reference frame used by the drive to dynamically follow the flux
very closely (i.e. high speed Sensorless RFC-A induction motor applications) the integral gain may need to have a significantly higher value.

Frequency Loop Gains
(00.065 {03.010}, Pr 00.066 {03.011}
The frequency loop gains control the response of the frequency controller to a change in frequency demand. The frequency controller includes
proportional (Kp) and integral (Ki) feed forward terms, and a differential (Kd) feedback term. The drive holds two sets of these gains and either set
may be selected for use by the frequency controller with Pr 03.016. If Pr 03.016 = 0, gains Kp1, Ki1 and Kd1 (Pr 03.010 to Pr 03.012) are used, and
if Pr 03.016 = 1, gains Kp2, Ki2 and Kd2 (Pr 03.013 to Pr 03.015) are used. Pr 03.016 may be changed when the drive is enabled or disabled.
Frequency Controller Proportional Gain (Kp), Pr 00.007 {03.010} and Pr 03.013
If the proportional gain has a value and the integral gain is set to zero the controller will only have a proportional term, and there must be a
frequency error to produce a torque reference. Therefore as the motor load increases there will be a difference between the reference and actual
frequencies. This effect, called regulation, depends on the level of the proportional gain, the higher the gain the smaller the frequency error for a
given load. If the proportional gain is too high either the acoustic noise produced by numerical quantization becomes unacceptable, or the stability
limit is reached.
Frequency Controller Integral Gain (Ki), Pr 00.008 {03.011} and Pr 03.014
The integral gain is provided to prevent frequency regulation. The error is accumulated over a period of time and used to produce the necessary
torque demand without any frequency error. Increasing the integral gain reduces the time taken for the frequency to reach the correct level and
increases the stiffness of the system, i.e. it reduces the positional displacement produced by applying a load torque to the motor. Unfortunately
increasing the integral gain also reduces the system damping giving overshoot after a transient. For a given integral gain the damping can be
improved by increasing the proportional gain. A compromise must be reached where the system response, stiffness and damping are all adequate
for the application. For RFC-A Sensorless mode, it is unlikely that the integral gain can be increased much above 0.50.
Differential Gain (Kd), Pr 03.012 and Pr 03.015
The differential gain is provided in the feedback of the frequency controller to give additional damping. The differential term is implemented in a way
that does not introduce excessive noise normally associated with this type of function. Increasing the differential term reduces the overshoot
produced by under-damping, however, for most applications the proportional and integral gains alone are sufficient.
Gain Change Threshold, Pr 03.017
If the Frequency Controller Gain Select (03.016) = 2, gains Kp1, Ki1 and Kd1 (Pr 03.010 to Pr 03.012) are used while the modulus of the frequency
demand is less than the value held by Gain Change Threshold (03.017), else gains Kp2, Ki2 and Kd2 (Pr 03.013 to Pr 03.015) will be used.
Tuning the frequency loop gains:

The integral gain (Ki) should then be increased up to the point where

8.2 Maximum motor rated current
Size 1 to 4:
The maximum motor rated current is the Maximum Heavy Duty Current
Rating (11.032).
The values for the Heavy Duty rating can be found in section
2.2 Ratings on page 10.
Size 5 onwards:
The maximum motor rated current allowed by the drive is greater than
the Maximum Heavy Duty Current Rating (11.032). The ratio between
the Normal Duty rating and the Maximum Heavy Duty Current Rating
(11.032) varies between drive sizes. The values for the Normal and
Heavy Duty rating can be found in section 2.2 Ratings on page 10. If the
Motor Rated Current (00.006) is set above the Maximum Heavy Duty
Current Rating (11.032), the current limits and the motor thermal
protection scheme are modified (see section 8.3 Current limits on
page 95 and section 8.4 Motor thermal protection below for further
information).
8.3 Current limits
The default setting for the current limit parameters is:
•165 % x motor rated current for open loop mode.
•175 % x motor rated current for RFC-A mode.
There are three parameters which control the current limits:
•Motoring current limit: power flowing from the drive to the motor
•Regen current limit: power flowing from the motor to the drive
•Symmetrical current limit: current limit for both motoring and regen
operation

Figure 8-1 Motor thermal protection (Heavy Duty)
If Pr 04.025 is 0 the characteristic is for a motor which can operate at
rated current over the whole speed range. Induction motors with this
type of characteristic normally have forced cooling. If Pr 04.025 is 1 the
characteristic is intended for motors where the cooling effect of motor
fan reduces with reduced motor speed below 50 % of base speed/
frequency. The maximum value for K1 is 1.05, so that above the knee of
the characteristics the motor can operate continuously up to 105 %
current.
Figure 8-2 Motor thermal protection (Normal Duty)
The lowest of either the motoring and regen current limit, or the
symmetrical current limit applies.
The maximum setting of these parameters depends on the values of
motor rated current, drive rated current and the power factor.
With size 5 upwards, increasing the motor rated current (Pr 00.006 /
Pr 05.007) above the Heavy Duty rating (default value), will
automatically reduce the current limits in Pr 04.005 to Pr 04.007. If the
motor rated current is then set to or below the Heavy Duty rating, the
current limits will be left at their reduced values.
The drive can be oversized to permit a higher current limit setting to
provide higher accelerating torque as required up to a maximum of
1000 %.
Both settings of Pr 04.025 are intended for motors where the cooling
effect of the motor fan reduces with reduced motor speed, but with
different speeds below which the cooling effect is reduced. If Pr 04.025
is 0 the characteristic is intended for motors where the cooling effect
reduces with motor speed below 15 % of base speed/frequency. If
Pr 04.025 is 1 the characteristic is intended for motors where the cooling
effect reduces with motor speed below 50 % of base speed/frequency.
8.4 Motor thermal protection
A time constant thermal model is provided to estimate the motor
temperature as a percentage of its maximum allowed temperature.
The motor thermal protection is modelled using losses in the motor. The
losses in the motor are calculated as a percentage value, so that under
these conditions the Motor Protection Accumulator (04.019) would
eventually reach 100 %.

The maximum value for K1 is 1.01, so that above the knee of the
characteristics the motor can operate continuously up to 101 % current
When the estimated temperature in Pr 04.019 reaches 100 % the drive
takes some action depending on the setting of Pr 04.016. If Pr 04.016 is
0, the drive trips when Pr 04.019 reaches 100 %. If Pr 04.016 is 1, the
current limit is reduced to (K - 0.05) x 100 % when Pr 04.019 reaches
100 %.
The current limit is set back to the user defined level when Pr 04.019
falls below 95 %. The thermal model temperature accumulator is reset
to zero at power-up and accumulates the temperature of the motor while
the drive remains powered-up. If the rated current defined by Pr 05.007
is altered, the accumulator is reset to zero.
The default setting of the thermal time constant (Pr 04.015) is 179 s
which is equivalent to an overload of 150 % for 120 s from cold.

8.5 Switching frequency
The default switching frequency is 3 kHz, however this can be increased
up to a maximum of 16 kHz by Pr 05.018 (dependent on drive size). The
available switching frequencies are shown below.

Drive
size

If switching frequency is increased from 3 kHz the following apply:
1. Increased heat loss in the drive, which means that derating to the
output current must be applied.
See the derating tables for switching frequency and ambient
temperature in section 11.1.1 Power and current ratings (Derating for switching frequency and temperature) on page 159.
2. Reduced heating of the motor - due to improved output waveform
quality.
3. Reduced acoustic noise generated by the motor.
4. Increased sample rate on the speed and current controllers. A trade
off must be made between motor heating, drive heating and the
demands of the application with respect to the sample time required.

The saturation breakpoint parameters (Pr 05.029, Pr 05. 030, Pr 05.062
and Pr 05.063) found during the autotune in RFC-A mode ensure the
magnetizing current is reduced in the correct proportion for the specific
motor. (In open loop mode the magnetizing current is not actively
controlled).
8.5.2 Maximum frequency
In all operating modes the maximum output frequency is limited to 550
Hz.
8.5.3 Over-modulation (open-loop only)
The maximum output voltage level of the drive is normally limited to an
equivalent of the drive input voltage minus voltage drops within the drive
(the drive will also retain a few percent of the voltage in order to maintain
current control). If the motor rated voltage is set at the same level as the
supply voltage, some pulse deletion will occur as the drive output voltage
approaches the rated voltage level. If Pr 05.020 (Over-modulation
enable) is set to 1 the modulator will allow over modulation, so that as
the output frequency increases beyond the rated frequency the voltage
continues to increase above the rated voltage. The modulation depth will
increase beyond unity; first producing trapezoidal and then quasi-square
waveforms.
This can be used for example:
•To obtain high output frequencies with a low switching frequency
which would not be possible with space vector modulation limited to
unity modulation depth,
or
•In order to maintain a higher output voltage with a low supply
voltage.
The disadvantage is that the machine current will be distorted as the
modulation depth increases above unity, and will contain a significant
amount of low order odd harmonics of the fundamental output frequency.
The additional low order harmonics cause increased losses and heating
in the motor.
8.5.1 Field weakening (constant power) operation
The drive can be used to run an induction machine above synchronous
speed into the constant power region. The speed continues to increase
and the available shaft torque reduces. The characteristics below show
the torque and output voltage characteristics as the speed is increased
above the rated value.
Figure 8-3 Torque and rated voltage against speed
Care must be taken to ensure the torque available above base speed is
sufficient for the application to run satisfactorily.

9 NV Media Card
9.1 Introduction
The Non-Volatile Media Card feature enables simple configuration of
parameters, parameter back-up and drive cloning using an SD card.
The SD card can be used for:
•Parameter copying between drives
•Saving drive parameter sets
The NV Media Card (SD card) is located in the AI-Backup adaptor.
The drive only communicates with the NV Media Card when
commanded to read or write, meaning the card may be "hot swapped".
Figure 9-1 Installation of the SD card
1
1. Installing the SD card
A flat bladed screwdriver or similar tool is required in order to insert /
remove the SD card fully into the AI-Backup adaptor.
Before inserting / removing the SD card into / from the AI-Backup
adaptor, the AI-Backup adaptor must be removed from the drive.
9.2 SD card support
An SD memory card can be inserted in the AI-Backup Adaptor in order
to transfer data to the drive, however the following limitations should be
noted:
If a parameter from the source drive does not exist in the target drive
then no data is transferred for that parameter.
If the data for the parameter in the target drive is out of range then the
data is limited to the range of the target parameter.
If the target drive has a different rating to the source drive then the
normal rules for this type of transfer apply as described later.
No checking is possible to determine if the source and target product
types are the same, and so no warning is given if they are different.
If an SD card is used then the drive will recognise the following file types
through the drive parameter interface.
File TypeDescription

The same as a parameter file, but defaults are not
loaded before the data is transferred from the
card
9.2.1 Changing the drive mode
If the source drive mode is different from the target drive mode then the
mode will be changed to the source drive mode before the parameters
are transferred. If the required drive mode is outside the allowed range
for the target then a {C.typ} trip is initiated and no data is transferred.
9.2.2 Different voltage ratings
If the voltage rating of the source and target drives is different then all
parameters except those that are rating dependent (i.e. attribute RA=1)
are transferred to the target drive. The rating dependent parameters are
left at their default values. After the parameters have been transferred
and saved to non-volatile memory a {C.rtg} trip is given as a warning.
The table below gives a list of the rating dependent parameters.

9.2.3 Different option modules installed
If the option module ID code (15.001) is different for any option module
installed to the source drive compared to the destination drive, then the
parameters for the set-up for that option module are not transferred, but
and are instead set to their default values. After the parameters have
been transferred and saved to non-volatile memory, a {C.OPt} trip is
given as a warning.
These files can be created on a card by the drive and then transferred to
any other drive including derivatives. If the Drive Derivative (11.028) is
different between the source and target drives then the data is
transferred but a {C.Pr} trip is initiated.
It is possible for other data to be stored on the card, but this should not
be stored in the <MCDF> folder and it will not be visible via the drive
parameter interface.

are still written to the target drive, but some may be limited by their

9.2.5 Different variable maximums
It should be noted that if ratings of the source and target drives are
different, it is possible that some parameters with variable maximums
may be limited and not have the same values as in the source drive.
9.2.6 Macro files
Macro files are created in the same way as parameter files except that
NV Media Card Create Special File (11.072) must be set to 1 before the
file is created on the NV media card. NV Media Card Create Special File
(11.072) is set to zero after the file has been created or the transfer fails.
When a macro file is transferred to a drive the drive mode is not changed
even if the actual mode is different to that in the file and defaults are not
loaded before the parameters are copied from the file to the drive.

10 Advanced parameters
This is a quick reference to all parameters in the drive showing units,
ranges limits etc, with block diagrams to illustrate their function. Full
descriptions of the parameters can be found in the Parameter Reference
Guide.
These advanced parameters are listed for reference
purposes only. The lists in this chapter do not include
sufficient information for adjusting these parameters.
Incorrect adjustment can affect the safety of the system,
and damage the drive and or external equipment. Before
attempting to adjust any of these parameters, refer to
the Parameter reference guide.

Operation mode abbreviations:
Open-loop: Sensorless control for induction motors
RFC-A: Asynchronous Rotor Flux Control for induction motors
Default abbreviations:
Standard default value (50 Hz AC supply frequency)
USA default value (60 Hz AC supply frequency)
Parameter numbers shown in brackets {...} are the equivalent Menu 0
parameters. Some Menu 0 parameters appear twice since their function
depends on the operating mode.
In some cases, the function or range of a parameter is affected by the
setting of another parameter. The information in the lists relates to the
default condition of any parameters affected in this way.
Table 10-2 Key to parameter table coding
CodingAttribute
RWRead/Write: can be written by the user
RORead only: can only be read by the user
Bit1 bit parameter. ‘On’ or ‘Off’ on the display
NumNumber: can be uni-polar or bi-polar
TxtText: the parameter uses text strings instead of numbers.
BinBinary parameter
IPIP Address parameter
MacMac Address parameter
DateDate parameter
TimeTime parameter
ChrCharacter parameter
Filtered: some parameters which can have rapidly changing
FI
values are filtered when displayed on the drive keypad for
easy viewing.
Destination: This parameter selects the destination of an
DE
input or logic function.
Rating dependent: this parameter is likely to have different
values and ranges with drives of different voltage and
current ratings. Parameters with this attribute will be
transferred to the destination drive by non-volatile storage
RA
media when the rating of the destination drive is different
from the source drive and the file is a parameter file.
However, the values will be transferred if only the current
rating is different and the file is a difference from default
type file.
No default: The parameter is not modified when defaults are
ND
loaded
Not copied: not transferred to or from non-volatile media
NC
during copying.
PTProtected: cannot be used as a destination.
User save: parameter saved in drive EEPROM when the
US
user initiates a parameter save.
Power-down save: parameter automatically saved in drive
PS
EEPROM when the under volts (UV) state occurs.
