General Information
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent or incorrect installation or adjustment of the optional operating parameters of the equipment or from mismatching the variable speed drive with the motor.
The contents of this guide are believed to be correct at the time of printing. In the interests of a commitment to a policy of continuous development and improvement, the manufacturer reserves the right to change the specification of the product or its performance, or the contents of the guide, without notice.
All rights reserved. No parts of this guide may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electrical or mechanical including photocopying, recording or by an information storage or retrieval system, without permission in writing from the publisher.
Drive software version
This product is supplied with the latest software version. If this drive is to be connected to an existing system or machine, all drive software 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 software version of the drive can be checked by looking at Pr 11.29 and Pr 11.34. This takes the form of xx.yy.zz where Pr 11.29 displays xx.yy and Pr 11.34 displays zz. (e.g. for software version 01.01.00, Pr 11.29 = 1.01 and Pr 11.34 displays 0).
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, whilst 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: http://www.controltechniques.com/REACH

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
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 and SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function functions of the drive do not isolate dangerous voltages from the output of the drive or from any external option unit. The supply must be disconnected by an approved electrical isolation device before gaining access to the electrical connections.
With the sole exception of the SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function, none of the drive functions must be used to ensure safety of personnel, i.e. they must not be used for safety­related functions.
Careful consideration must be given to the functions of the drive which might result in a hazard, either through their intended behaviour or through incorrect operation due to a fault. In any application where a malfunction of the drive or its control system could lead to or allow damage, loss or injury, a risk analysis must be carried out, and where necessary, further measures taken to reduce the risk - for example, an over-speed protection device in case of failure of the speed control, or a fail-safe mechanical brake in case of loss of motor braking.
The SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function has been approved
prevention of unexpected starting of the drive. It may be used in a safety-related application. The system designer is responsible for
ensuring that the complete system is safe and designed correctly according to the relevant safety standards.

as meeting the requirements of EN954-1 category 3 for the

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 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 earth (ground) 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:
98/37/EC: Safety of machinery. 89/336/EEC: Electromagnetic Compatibility.

1.6 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 parameter 0.46 motor rated current. This affects the thermal protection of the motor.

1.7 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.

2.2 Ratings

The Unidrive SP 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 Duty Heavy 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
at low speed. To provide the correct level of protection the I
2
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 Pr 4.25. The protection starts when the motor speed is below 15% of base speed when Pr 4.25 = 0 (default) and below 50% when Pr 4.25 = 1.
Operation of motor I2t protection (It.AC trip)
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 and permanent magnet servo 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 Pr 4.25 = 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 Advanced User Guide.
Typical values are shown in the table below for closed loop vector (VT) and open loop (OL) modes:
Table 2-5 Typical overload limits for size 6 to 9
Operating mode Closed loop from cold Closed loop from 100% Open loop from cold Open loop from 100%
Normal Duty overload with motor rated current = drive rated current 110% for 165s 110% for 9s 110% for 165s 110% for 9s Heavy Duty overload with motor rated current = drive rated current 150% for 60s 150% for 8s 129% for 97s 129% for 15s
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 Unidrive SP is designed to operate in any of the following modes:
1. Open loop mode Open loop vector mode Fixed V/F mode (V/Hz) Quadratic V/F mode (V/Hz)
2. RFC mode
3. Closed loop vector
Servo
4. Regen

2.3.1 Open loop mode

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.
For further details refer to section 8.1.1 Open loop motor control on page 106.
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 1Hz for a 50Hz 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 4Hz for a 50Hz motor.
Quadratic 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 mode

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 such as operating large motors with light loads at low frequencies.
For further details, refer to section 8.1.2 RFC mode on page 108.

2.3.3 Closed loop vector mode

For use with induction motors with a feedback device installed. The drive directly controls the speed of the motor using the feedback
device to ensure the rotor speed is exactly as demanded. Motor flux is accurately controlled at all times to provide full torque all the way down to zero speed.

2.3.4 Servo

For use with permanent magnet brushless motors with a feedback device installed.
The drive directly controls the speed of the motor using the feedback device to ensure the rotor speed is exactly as demanded. Flux control is not required because the motor is self excited by the permanent magnets which form part of the rotor.
Absolute position information is required from the feedback device to ensure the output voltage is accurately matched to the back EMF of the motor. Full torque is available all the way down to zero speed.

2.3.5 Regen

Free Standing drives are not intended to be used in regen mode.

3 Mechanical Installation

This chapter describes how to use all mechanical details to install the drive. Key features of this chapter include:
Baying of Free Standing drives
Terminal location and torque settings
Solutions Module installation

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.
The weights of the size 6 to 9 Free Standing drives are as follows:
Size 6: 199 kg (438 lb) Size 7: 214 kg (471 lb) Size 8: 266 kg (586 lb) Size 9: 532 kg (1173 lb)
Lift the drive by the method detailed in Figure 3-2 on page 20. Do not tilt the drive. The centre of gravity of the unit is high. An overturning unit can cause physical injury.

2. Attach each shackle to the lifting plate. Ensure angle of each rope is
>45°.

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 standard Free Standing drive is rated for IP21. An IP23 version is also available.

3.2.2 Environmental protection

The drive must be protected from:
moisture, including dripping water or spraying water and condensation.
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

3.2.3 Cooling

The inlet and outlet vents on the drive must not be restricted or covered. The ambient temperature must not exceed the specified operating temperature of the drive. Some size 8 and size 9 models are installed with a fan in the roof of the enclosure.
Care must be taken when installing Unidrive SP Free Standing drives side by side, to prevent recirculation of heated air. Where a Free Standing drive with no roof fan is installed next to a drive with a roof fan it is recommended that some additional baffling be added between the roof canopies to prevent recirculation of heated air in the drive with no roof fan. If no baffling is added between drives fitted with roof fans and those without a distance of 0.5 metres must be maintained between drives.
Certain Unidrive SP size 6 and 7 Free Standing drives are fitted with smaller roof fans, baffling should also be fitted if installed side by side

with a Unidrive size 8 or 9 Free Standing drive (with larger roof fan) or a distance of 0.5 metres (19.69in) must also be maintained between drives.
A distance of 300mm (11.81in) should be maintained between the top of the Free Standing drive roof canopy and the ceiling of the room in which the Free Standing drive is installed.
Refer to Table 12-8 Roof mounted fans on page 236 for details of which Free Standing models have roof fans fitted.

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 44.

3.2.5 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 as close to the drive as possible. A suitable location, such as a SP-Incomer Shell, must be made available for the housing filters and allowance made for carefully segregated wiring. Both levels of precautions are covered in section
4.9 EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) on page 59.

3.2.6 Hazardous areas

The drive must not be located in a classified hazardous area .

3.3 Terminal cover removal

Isolation device The AC 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 supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC 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.

4 Electrical Installation

Many cable management features have been incorporated into the product, this chapter shows how to optimize them. Key features include:
SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function
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 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.
Fuses
The AC supply to the drive must be installed with suitable protection against overload and short circuits. Table 4-3 on page 54 shows the recommended fuse ratings. Failure to observe this requirement will increase the risk of fire.
SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function
The SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) 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 supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC 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).
Permanent magnet motors
Permanent magnet motors generate electrical power if they are rotated, even when the supply to the drive is disconnected. If that happens then the drive will become energized through its motor terminals. If the motor load is capable of rotating the motor when the supply is disconnected, then the motor must be isolated from the drive before gaining access to any live parts.

4.2 AC supply requirements

Voltage:
SPx4xx 380V to 480V ±10%
SPx6xx 500V to 690V ±10% Number of phases: 3 Maximum supply imbalance: 2% negative phase sequence (equivalent
to 3% voltage imbalance between phases). Frequency range: 48 to 65 Hz For UL compliance only, the maximum supply symmetrical fault current
must be limited to 100kA

4.2.1 Supply types

Drives rated for supply voltage up to 575V are suitable for use with any supply type, i.e. TN-S, TN-C-S, TT, IT, with grounding at any potential, i.e. neutral, centre or corner ("grounded-delta").
Grounded delta supplies >575V are not permitted. 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 (removed) or additional independent motor ground fault protection must be provided. Refer to Table 4-1. For details of ground fault protection contact the supplier of the drive.
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.

Information
Large DC drives having no or inadequate line reactors connected to the supply.
Direct-on-line 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.
All Free Standing drives have internal AC line chokes, so they do not require additional 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
May not trip – precautions required
Do not use EMC filter
Use ground leakage relay
6 to 9
May not trip – precautions required
Remove the EMC filter
Use ground leakage relay

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.

4.3 Auxiliary power supply

Model sizes 8 and 9 with date code Q45 and earlier, require an auxiliary 230V power supply to each enclosure for the roof fan (mounted to SP8XX4 and SP9XX5) and to feed the internal 24V power supply. The 24V power supply is used to supply the rectifier control electronics and the heatsink fans on the power module.

For all size 6 & 7, and size 8 & 9 units that have a date code of R48 and later, a mains transformer has been introduced for Unidrive SP 8XXX and 9XXX Free Standing drives. The new transformer eliminates the requirement for a separate external 230V power source. A connection from the L1 and L2 input phases is transformed to 230V single phase to supply the AC to DC 24V power supply and directly supply the 230Vac roof fan in the SP84x4 and SP94x5 models.

The transformer has a number of selectable input voltages. As standard, the spur connection from the L1 phase is now parked in the lower right hand terminal during shipment. This parked terminal is not connected to any of the primary windings, therefore depending on variances in the 400V or 690V supply, this cable must be connected by the user to either the 380V, 400V, 480V, 575V or 690V connection.
Until the cable is moved from the parked position to the terminals identified above, the drive will not power up using the three phase supply. The ground and 0V wires are also pre-fitted and must not be changed.

4.4 Control 24Vdc supply

The 24Vdc input on the Unidrive SP has three main functions.
It can be used to supplement the drive’s own internal 24V when multiple SM-Universal Encoder Plus, SM-Encoder Output Plus or SM-I/O Plus or SM-I/O32 modules are being used, and the current drawn by these modules is greater than the drive can supply. (If too much current is drawn from the drive, the drive will initiate a 'PS.24V' trip).
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, application modules, encoders or serial communications to continue to operate.
It can be used to commission / start the drive when line power supply voltages are not available, as the display operates correctly. However, the drive will be in the UV trip state unless the line power supply is present, therefore diagnostics may not be possible. (Power down save parameters are not saved when using the 24V back-up power supply input).
The working voltage range of the 24V power supply is as follows:
Maximum continuous operating voltage: 30.0 V Minimum continuous operating voltage: 19.2 V Nominal operating voltage: 24.0 V Minimum start up voltage: 21.6 V Maximum power supply requirement at 24V: 60 W Recommended fuse: 3 A, 50 Vdc
Minimum and maximum voltage values include ripple and noise. Ripple and noise values must not exceed 5%.

4.5 Ratings

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 4-2.

UL listing is dependent on the use of the correct type of UL-listed fuse, and applies when symmetrical short-circuit current does not exceed 100kA. See Chapter 14 UL Listing Information on page 260 for sizing information.
Fuses
The AC supply to the drive must be installed with suitable protection against overload and short-circuits. Table 4-3 on page 54 and Table 4-4 on page 54 show the recommended fuse ratings. Failure to observe this requirement will cause risk of fire.
A fuse or other protection must be included in all live connections to the AC supply.
See Chapter 14 UL Listing Information on page 260 for UL listing requirements.
Fuse types
The fuse voltage rating must be suitable for the drive supply voltage.
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.

4.5.1 Main AC supply contactor

The recommended AC supply contactor type is AC1.

4.6 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 five times the rated output current, and interrupts the current in approximately 20µs. No additional short-circuit protection devices are required.
The drive provides overload protection for the motor and its cable. For this to be effective, Pr 0.46 Motor rated current must be set to suit the motor.
Pr 0.46 Motor rated current 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 over­heating of the motor, e.g. due to loss of cooling.

4.6.1 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 4-7.
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

Cable lengths in excess of the specified values may be used only when special techniques are adopted; refer to the supplier of the drive.
The default switching frequency is 3kHz for open-loop and closed­loop vector and 6kHz for servo.
High-capacitance cables
The maximum cable length is reduced from that shown in Table 4-7, if high capacitance 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 4-10 shows how to identify the two types.)
Figure 4-10 Cable construction influencing the capacitance
The cable used for Table 4-7 is shielded and contains four cores. Typical capacitance for this type of cable is 130pF/m (i.e. from one core to all others and the shield connected together).

4.6.2 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.

the motor
For normal operation with AC supplies up to 500Vac 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 10m:
AC supply voltage exceeds 500V
Operation of 400V drive with continuous or very frequent sustained braking
Multiple motors connected to a single drive
For multiple motors, the precautions given in section 4.6.3 Multiple motors should be followed.
For the other cases listed, it is recommended that an inverter-rated motor be used. This has a reinforced insulation system intended by the manufacturer for repetitive fast-rising pulsed voltage operation.
Users of 575V 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 2.2kV 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.

4.6.3 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 5.14 = Fd or SrE). Make the motor connections as shown in Figure 4-11 and Figure 4-12. The maximum cable lengths in Table 4-7 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 sinusoidal filter or an output inductor must be connected as shown in Figure 4-12, even when the cable lengths are less than the maximum permissible. For details of inductor sizes refer to the supplier of the drive.

4.6.4 A / Δ motor operation
The voltage rating for A 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.
400V drive 400V rated voltage 690V drive 690V rated voltage
A typical 3 phase motor would be connected in for 200V operation, however, variations on this are common e.g.
A for 400V operation or Δ
A 690V Δ 400V
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.

4.6.5 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 The Drive Enable terminal (T31) when opened provides a SECURE
DISABLE function. This can in many cases replace output contactors. For further information see section 4.13 SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE
DISABLE) on page 69.

4.7 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 the motor is being braked by the drive, the maximum regenerated power that the drive can absorb is equal to the power dissipation (losses) of the drive.
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 4-8 shows the DC voltage level at which the drive turns on the braking transistor.
Table 4-8 Braking transistor turn on voltage
Drive voltage rating DC bus voltage level
400V 780V 690V 1120V
N
When a braking resistor is used, Pr 0.15 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.

4.7.1 Braking resistor

Overload protection
When a braking resistor is used, it is essential that an overload protection device is incorporated in the braking resistor circuit; this is described in Figure 4-13 on page 59.
Ensure that the braking resistor 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.
Internal connection does not require the cable to be armored or shielded.

* Resistor tolerance: ±10%
Connections from the brake resistor should be kept separate. The resistor tolerance should not be more than ± 10 % and the resistor should be matched to within ± 5%.
On SP Size 8, 12 pulse drives the DC bus connections are commoned between the SPMD modules, hence one braking resistor can be used when braking power required is low.
On SP Size 9, 12 pulse drives the DC bus connections are commoned between the SPMD modules in each enclosure, but this is not connected between the enclosures, hence two bake resistors (one resistor with each enclosure) can be used when the required braking power is low.
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 essential, though, 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 a 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 4-13 shows a typical circuit arrangement.

4.8 Ground leakage

The ground leakage current is dependant on whether the internal EMC filter is fitted or not. By default, the drive is supplied with the filter installed.
Size 6 to 9 Free Standing: 56mA* AC at 400V 50Hz
18µA DC with a 600V DC bus (33MΩ)
* Proportional to the supply voltage and frequency. Note that there is an internal voltage surge protection device connected
to ground. Under normal circumstances this carries negligible current.
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.

4.8.1 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

4.7.2 Braking resistor software overload protection

The Unidrive SP software contains an overload protection function for a braking resistor. In order to enable and set-up this function, it is necessary to enter two values into the drive:
Resistor short-time overload time (Pr 10.30)
Resistor minimum time between repeated short-time overloads (Pr 10.31)
This data should be obtained from the manufacturer of the braking resistors.
Pr 10.39 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. An OVLd alarm is given if this parameter is above 75% and the braking IGBT is active. An It.br trip will occur if Pr 10.39 reaches 100%, when Pr 10.37 is set to 0 (default value) or 1.
If Pr 10.37 is equal to 2 or 3 an It.br trip will not occur when Pr 10.39 reaches 100%, but instead the braking IGBT will be disabled until Pr 10.39 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 10.37 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 10.39 has fallen below 95% the drive will allow the braking IGBT to operate again.
See the Unidrive SP Advanced User Guide for more information on Pr 10.30, Pr 10.31, Pr 10.37 and Pr 10.39.
This software overload protection should be used in addition to an external overload protection device.
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 50ms 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.

4.9 EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility)

The requirements for EMC are divided into three levels in the following three sections:
1. Section 4.9.2 General requirements for EMC Ground (earth) connections for all applications, to ensure reliable operation of the drive and minimize the risk of disturbing nearby equipment. The immunity standards specified in Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and connections outside a building on page 62 will be met, but no specific emission standards. Note also the special requirements given in Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and connections outside a building Surge immunity of control circuits - long cables and connections outside a building on page 62 for increased surge immunity of control circuits where control wiring is extended.
2. Section 4.9.3 Compliance with EN 61800-3 (standard for Power Drive Systems) , requirements for meeting the EMC standard for power drive systems, IEC61800-3 (EN61800-3).
3. Section 4.9.4 Variations in the EMC wiring Interruptions to the motor cable , requirements for meeting the generic emission. Standards for the industrial environment, IEC61000-6-4, EN61000­6-4, EN50081-2.
The recommendations of section 4.9.2 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 non­industrial environment, then the recommendations of section 4.9.3 or section 4.9.4 should be followed to give reduced radio-frequency emission.

In order to ensure the installation meets the various emission standards described in:
The Declaration of Conformity at the front of this manual.

section 4.9.2 must be followed.
High ground leakage current
When an EMC filter is used, a permanent fixed ground connection must be provided which does not pass through a connector or flexible power cord. This includes the internal EMC filter.
The installer of the drive is responsible for ensuring compliance with the EMC regulations that apply where the drive is to be used.

4.9.1 Grounding hardware

The master/slave interface is supplied with a grounding clamp and a grounding bracket to facilitate EMC compliance. They provide 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
1
(not 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.

A suitable clamp is the Phoenix DIN rail mounted SK14 cable clamp (for cables with a maximum outer diameter of 14mm). Figure 4-14 shows details for the installation of the grounding bracket.
Figure 4-14 Installation of grounding bracket (master/slave)
Loosen the ground connection nuts and slide the grounding bracket in the direction shown. Once in place, re-tighten the ground connection nuts.
A faston tab is located on the grounding bracket for the purpose of connecting the drive 0V to ground should the user require to do so.

4.9.2 General requirements for EMC Ground (earth) connections

If ground connections are made using a separate cable, they should run parallel to the appropriate power cable to minimize emissions.
If the control circuit 0V is to be grounded, this should be done at the system controller only to avoid injecting noise currents into the 0V circuit.
The incoming supply ground should be connected to the earth/ground terminal inside the cubicle. This should be used as a common ‘clean’ ground for all components inside the drive.
Use four core cable to connect the motor to the drive. The ground conductor in the motor cable must be connected directly to the earth/ ground terminal of the drive and motor. It must not be connected directly to the power earth/ground busbar.

Information
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.
Feedback device cable shielding
Shielding considerations are important for PWM drive installations due to the high voltages and currents present in the output (motor) circuit with a very wide frequency spectrum, typically from 0 to 20 MHz.
The following guidance is divided into two parts:
1. Ensuring correct transfer of data without disturbance from electrical noise originating either within the drive or from outside.
2. Additional measures to prevent unwanted emission of radio frequency noise. These are optional and only required where the installation is subject to specific requirements for radio frequency emission control.
To ensure correct transfer of data, observe the following:
Resolver connections:
Use a cable with an overall shield and twisted pairs for the resolver signals.
Connect the cable shield to the drive 0V connection by the shortest possible link ("pigtail").
It is generally preferable not to connect the cable shield to the resolver. However in cases where there is an exceptional level of common-mode noise voltage present on the resolver body, it may be helpful to connect the shield there. If this is done then it becomes essential to ensure the absolute minimum length of "pigtails" at both shield connections, and possibly to clamp the cable shield directly to the resolver body and to the drive grounding bracket.
The cable should preferably not be interrupted. If interruptions are unavoidable, ensure the absolute minimum length of "pigtail" in the shield connections at each interruption.
Encoder connections:
Use a cable with the correct impedance.
Use a cable with individually shielded twisted pairs.
Connect the cable shields to 0V at both the drive and the encoder, using the shortest possible links ("pigtails").
The cable should preferably not be interrupted. If interruptions are unavoidable, ensure the absolute minimum length of "pigtail" in the shield connections at each interruption. Preferably, use a connection method which provides substantial metallic clamps for the cable shield terminations.
The above applies where the encoder body is isolated from the motor and where the encoder circuit is isolated from the encoder body. Where there is no isolation between the encoder circuits and the motor body, and in case of doubt, the following additional requirement must be observed. This gives the best possible noise immunity.
The shields must be directly clamped to the encoder body (no pigtail) and to the drive grounding bracket. This may be achieved by clamping of the individual shields or by providing an additional overall shield which is clamped.
The recommendations of the encoder manufacturer must also be adhered to for the encoder connections.
In order to guarantee maximum noise immunity for any application double shielded cable as shown should be used.
In some cases single shielding of each pair of differential signals cables, or a single overall shield with individual shield on the thermistor connections is sufficient. In these cases all the shields should be connected to ground and 0V at both ends.

If the 0V is required to be left floating a cable with individual shields and an overall shield must be used. Figure 4-15 and Figure illustrate the preferred construction of cable and the method of clamping. The outer sheath of the cable should be stripped back enough to allow the clamp to be installed. The shield must not be broken or opened at this point. The clamps should be installed close to the drive or feedback device, with the ground connections made to a ground plate or similar metallic ground surface.

Operation in the first environment
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 counter measures.
Operation in the second environment
In all cases a shielded motor cable must be used. Where a filter is required, follow the guidelines given in section 12.1.23 Electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) on page 240.
The second environment typically includes an industrial low voltage 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 considered. The user must take remedial measures if this situation arises. If the consequences of unexpected disturbance are severe, it is recommended that the guidelines in section 4.9.4 Variations in the EMC wiring Interruptions to the motor cable be adhered to.
Refer to section 4.9 EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) on page 59 for further information on compliance with EMC standards and definitions of environments.

4.9.4 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 0.3m (12 in) away from the terminal block.
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 0.3m (12 in) away.
The coupling-bar may be grounded to a known low-impedance ground nearby, for example a large metallic structure which is connected closely to the drive ground.
4.9.3 Compliance with EN 61800-3 (standard for
Meeting the requirements of this standard depends on the environment
Power Drive Systems)
that the drive is intended to operate in, as follows:

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 EN61000-6-2 (1kV surge) provided the 0V 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 30m (98.5 ft), some additional precautions are advisable. One of the following techniques should be used:
1. Galvanic isolation, i.e. do not connect the control 0V terminal to ground. Avoid loops in the control wiring, i.e. ensure every control wire is accompanied by its return (0V) 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 10mm2, or 10 times the area of the 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 4-18 and Figure 4-19. If a digital port experiences a severe surge its protective trip may operate.
(O.Ld1 trip code 26). For continued operation after such an event, the trip can be reset automatically by setting Pr 10.34 to a value of 5.

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.

4.10 Serial communications connections

The Unidrive SP has a serial communications port (serial port) as standard supporting 2 wire EIA485 communications. Please see Table 4-10 for the connection details for the RJ45 connector.
Figure 4-20 Location of the RJ45 serial comms connector
Table 4-10 Connection details for RJ45 connector
Pin Function
1 120Ω Termination resistor 2RX TX 3 Isolated 0V 4 +24V (100mA) 5 Isolated 0V 6 TX enable 7RX\ TX\
RX\ TX\ (if termination resistors are required, link to pin 1)
8
Shell Isolated 0V
The communications port applies a 2 unit load to the communications network.
Minimum number of connections are 2, 3, 7 and shield. Shielded cable must be used at all times.

4.10.1 Isolation of the serial communications port

The serial communications port of the Unidrive SP is double insulated and meets the requirements for SELV in EN50178.
In order to meet the requirements for SELV in IEC60950 (IT equipment) it is necessary for the control computer to be grounded. Alternatively, when a lap-top or similar device is used which has no provision for grounding, an isolation device must be incorporated in the communications lead.
An isolated serial communications lead has been designed to connect the Unidrive SP to IT equipment (such as lap-top computers), and is available from the supplier of the drive. See below for details:
Table 4-11 Isolated serial comms lead details
The “isolated serial communications” lead has reinforced insulation as defined in IEC60950 for altitudes up to 3,000m.
When using the CT EIA232 Comms cable the available baud rate is limited to 19.2k baud.

N

4.10.2 Multi-drop network

The Unidrive SP can be used on a 2 wire EIA485 multi-drop network using the drive's serial communications port when the following guidelines are adhered to.
Connections
The network should be a daisy chain arrangement and not a A, although short stubs to the drive are allowed.
The minimum connections are pins 2 (RX TX), 3 (isolated 0V), 7 (RX\ TX\) and the shield.
Pin 4 (+24V) on each drive can be connected together but there is no power sharing mechanism between drives and therefore the maximum power available is the same as a single drive. (If pin 4 is not linked to the other drives on the network and has an individual load then the maximum power can be taken from pin 4 of each drive.)
Termination resistors
If a drive is on the end of the network chain then pins 1 and 8 should be linked together. This will connect an internal 120Ω termination resistor between RXTX and RX\TX\. (If the end unit is not a drive or the user wishes to use their own termination resistor, a 120Ω termination resistor should be connected between RXTX and RX\TX\ at the end unit.)
If the host is connected to a single drive then termination resistors should not be used unless the baud rate is high.
CT Comms Cable
The CT Comms Cable can be used on a multi-drop network but should only be used occasionally for diagnostic and set up purposes. The network must also be made up entirely of Unidrive SPs.
If the CT Comms Cable is to be used, then pin 6 (TX enable) should be connected on all drives and pin 4 (+24V) should be linked to at least 1 drive to supply power to the converter in the cable.
Only one CT Comms Cable can be used on a network.

All digital terminal functions (including the relay) can be programmed in menu 8.
The setting of Pr 1.14 and Pr 6.04 can cause the function of digital inputs T25 to T29 to change. For more information, please refer to section
11.21.1 Reference modes on page 224 and section 11.21.7 Start / stop
logic modes on page 230.
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 or outputs (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.

SSI encoders typically have maximum baud rate of 500kBaud. When a SSI only encoder is used for speed feedback with a closed loop vector or servo motor, a large speed feedback filter (Pr 3.42) is required due to the time taken for the position information to be transferred from the encoder into the drive. The addition of this filter means that SSI only encoders are not suitable for speed feedback in dynamic or high-speed applications.

For the SinCos encoder to be compatible with Unidrive SP, the output signals from the encoder must be a 1V peak to peak differential voltage (across Sin to Sinref and Cos to Cosref).
The majority of encoders have a DC offset on all signals. Stegmann encoders typically have a 2.5Vdc offset. The Sinref and Cosref are a flat DC level at 2.5Vdc and the Cos and Sin signals have a 1V peak to peak waveform biased at 2.5Vdc.
Encoders are available which have a 1V peak to peak voltage on Sin, Sinref, Cos and Cosref. This results in a 2V peak to peak voltage seen at the drive's encoder terminals. It is not recommended that encoders of this type are used with Unidrive SP, and that the encoder feedback signals should meet the above parameters (1V peak to peak).
Resolution: The sinewave frequency can be up to 500kHz but the resolution is reduced at high frequency. Table 4-15 shows the number of bits of interpolated information at different frequencies and with different voltage levels at the drive encoder port. The total resolution in bits per revolution is the ELPR plus the number of bits of interpolated information. Although it is possible to obtain 11 bits of interpolation information, the nominal design value is 10 bits.

4.13 SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE)

The SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function provides a means for preventing the drive from generating torque in the motor, with a very high level of integrity. It is suitable for incorporation into a safety system for a machine. It is also suitable for use as a conventional drive enable input.
The SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function makes use of the special property of an inverter drive with an induction motor, which is that torque cannot be generated without the continuous correct active behavior of the inverter circuit. All credible faults in the inverter power circuit cause a loss of torque generation.
The SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function is fail-safe, so when the SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) input is disconnected the drive will not operate the motor, even if a combination of components within the drive has failed. Most component failures are revealed by the drive failing to operate. SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) is also independent of the drive firmware.

consult the separate guide for lift applications for further information. SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) can be used to eliminate
electro-mechanical contactors, including special safety contactors, which would otherwise be required for safety applications.
Note on response time of SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE), and use with safety controllers with self-testing outputs (drives with date code P04 and later).
SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) has been designed to have a response time of greater than 1ms, so that it is compatible with safety controllers whose outputs are subject to a dynamic test with a pulse width not exceeding 1ms.
For applications where a fast-acting disable function is required, please see section 11.21.10 Fast Disable on page 232.
Note on the use of servo motors, other permanent-magnet motors, reluctance motors and salient-pole induction motors
When the drive is disabled through SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE), a possible (although highly unlikely) failure mode is for two power devices in the inverter circuit to conduct incorrectly.
This fault cannot produce a steady rotating torque in any AC motor. It produces no torque in a conventional induction motor with a cage rotor. If the rotor has permanent magnets and/or saliency, then a transient alignment torque may occur. The motor may briefly try to rotate by up to 180° electrical, for a permanent magnet motor, or 90° electrical, for a salient pole induction motor or reluctance motor. This possible failure mode must be allowed for in the machine design.

The following diagrams illustrate how the SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) input can be used to eliminate contactors and safety contactors from control systems. Please note these are provided for illustration only, every specific arrangement must be verified for suitability in the proposed application.
In the first example, illustrated in Figure 4-23, the SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function is used to replace a simple power contactor in applications where the risk of injury from unexpected starting is small, but it is not acceptable to rely on the complex hardware and firmware/software used by the stop/start function within the drive.
Figure 4-23 Start / stop control EN954-1 category B - replacement
of contactor
The design of safety-related control systems must only be done by personnel with the required training and experience.
The SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) function will only ensure the safety of a machine if it is correctly incorporated into a complete safety system. The system must be subject to a risk assessment to confirm that the residual risk of an unsafe event is at an acceptable level for the application.
To maintain category 3 according to EN954-1 the environment limits given in section 12.1 Drive technical data on page 233 must be adhered to.
SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) inhibits the operation of the drive, this includes inhibiting braking. If the drive is required to provide both braking and SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) in the same operation (e.g. for emergency stop) then a safety timer relay or similar device must be used to ensure that the drive is disabled a suitable time after braking. The braking function in the drive is provided by an electronic circuit which is not fail-safe. If braking is a safety requirement, it must be supplemented by an independent fail-safe braking mechanism.
SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) does not provide electrical isolation. The supply to the drive must be disconnected by an approved isolation device before gaining access to power connections.
In the second example, illustrated in Figure 4-24 and Figure 4-25, a conventional high-integrity system which uses two safety contactors with auxiliary contacts with connected movement is replaced by a single SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) system. This arrangement meets EN954-1 category 3.

The safety function of the example circuit is to ensure that the motor does not operate when the interlocks are not signalling a safe state. The safety relay is used to check the two interlock channels and detect faults in those channels. The stop/start buttons are shown for completeness as part of a typical arrangement, they do not carry out a safety function and are not necessary for the safe operation of the circuit.
Figure 4-25 Category 3 interlock using SAFE TORQUE OFF
(SECURE DISABLE) with protected wiring
In the conventional system, a contactor failure in the unsafe direction is detected the next time the safety relay is reset. Since the drive is not part of the safety system it has to be assumed that AC power is always available to drive the motor, so two contactors in series are required in order to prevent the first failure from causing an unsafe event (i.e. the motor driven).
With SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) there are no single faults in the drive which can permit the motor to be driven. Therefore it is not necessary to have a second channel to interrupt the power connection, nor a fault detection circuit.
It is important to note that a single short-circuit from the Enable input (SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE)) to a DC supply of approximately +24V would cause the drive to be enabled. For this reason, Figure 4-25 shows the wire from the Enable input to the safety relay as "protected wiring" so that the possibility of a short circuit from this wire to the DC supply can be excluded, as specified in ISO 13849-2. The wiring can be protected by placing it in a segregated cable duct or other enclosure, or by providing it with a grounded shield. The shield is provided to avoid a hazard from an electrical fault. It may be grounded by any convenient method, no special EMC precautions are required.
If the use of protected wiring is not acceptable, so that the possibility of this short circuit must be allowed for, then a relay must be used to monitor the state of the Enable input, together with a single safety contactor to prevent operation of the motor after a fault. This is illustrated in Figure 4-26.
N
The auxiliary relay K2 must be located in the same enclosure and close to the drive, with its coil connected as closely as possible to the drive enable / SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) input.

5 Getting Started

This chapter introduces the user interfaces, menu structure and security level of the drive.

5.1 Understanding the display

There are two keypads available for the Unidrive SP. The SM-Keypad has an LED display and the SM-Keypad Plus has an LCD display. Both keypads can be installed on the drive but the SM-Keypad Plus can also be remotely mounted on an enclosure door.

5.1.1 SM-Keypad (LED)

The display consists of two horizontal rows of 7 segment LED displays. The upper display shows the drive status or the current menu and
parameter number being viewed. The lower display shows the parameter value or the specific trip type.
Figure 5-1 SM-Keypad Figure 5-2 SM-Keypad Plus
The red stop button is also used to reset the drive.
Both the SM-Keypad and the SM-Keypad Plus can indicate when a SMARTCARD access is taking place or when the second motor map is active (menu 21). These are indicated on the displays as follows.
SMARTCARD access taking place
Second motor map active
The decimal point after the fourth digit in the upper display will flash.
The decimal point after the third digit in the upper display will flash.

5.1.2 SM-Keypad Plus (LCD)

The display consists of three lines of text. The top line shows the drive status or the current menu and parameter
number being viewed on the left, and the parameter value or the specific trip type on the right.
The lower two lines show the parameter name or the help text.

The symbol ‘CC’ will appear in the lower left hand corner of the display
The symbol ‘Mot2’ will appear in the lower left hand corner of the display

5.2 Keypad operation

5.2.1 Control buttons

The keypad consists of:
1. Joypad - used to navigate the parameter structure and change parameter values.
2. Mode button - used to change between the display modes – parameter view, parameter edit, status.
3. Three control buttons - used to control the drive if keypad mode is selected.
4. Help button (SM-Keypad Plus only) - displays text briefly describing the selected parameter. The Help button toggles between other display modes and parameter help mode. The up and down functions on the joypad scroll the help text to
allow the whole string to be viewed. The right and left functions on the joypad have no function when help text is being viewed. The display examples in this section show the SM-Keypad 7 segment LED display. The examples are the same for the SM-Keypad Plus except that
the information displayed on the lower row on the SM-Keypad is displayed on the right hand side of the top row on the SM-Keypad Plus.

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 AC supply to the drive is interrupted, new values must be saved. Refer to section 5.7 Saving parameters on page 76.
Do not change parameter values without careful consideration; incorrect values may cause damage or a safety hazard.

5.3 Menu structure

The drive parameter structure consists of menus and parameters. The drive initially powers up so that only menu 0 can be viewed. The up
and down arrow buttons are used to navigate between parameters and once level 2 access (L2) has been enabled (see Pr 0.49) the left and right buttons are used to navigate between menus. For further information, refer to section 5.9 Parameter access level and security on page 77.

Setting User Security
Enter a value between 1 and 999 in Pr 0.34 and press the button; the security code has now been set to this value. In order to activate the security, the Access level must be set to Loc in Pr 0.49. When the drive is reset, the security code will have been activated and the drive returns to Access Level L1. The value of Pr 0.34 will return to 0 in order to hide the security code. At this point, the only parameter that can be changed by the user is the Access Level Pr 0.49.
Unlocking User Security
Select a read write parameter to be edited and press the button, the upper display will now show CodE. 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 display will revert to
parameter view mode.
To lock the User Security again, set Pr 0.49 to Loc and press the reset button.

Please note that this function can be affected by the access level enabled, refer to section 5.9 Parameter access level and security for further information regarding access level.

5.11 Displaying destination parameters only

By entering 12001 in Pr xx.00, the only parameters that will be visible to the user will be destination parameters. This function does not require a drive reset to become active. In order to deactivate this function, return to Pr xx.00 and enter a value of 0.
Please note that this function can be affected by the access level enabled, refer to section 5.9 Parameter access level and security for further information regarding access level.

5.12 Serial communications

5.12.1 Introduction

The Unidrive SP has a standard 2-wire EIA485 interface (serial communications interface) which enables all drive set-up, operation and monitoring to be carried out with a PC or controller if required. Therefore, it is possible to control the drive entirely by serial communications without the need for a SM-keypad or other control cabling. The drive supports two protocols selected by parameter configuration:
Modbus RTU
CT ANSI
Modbus RTU has been set as the default protocol, as it is used with the PC-tools commissioning/start-up software as provided on the CD ROM.
The serial communications port of the drive is a RJ45 socket, which is isolated from the power stage and the other control terminals (see section 4.10 Serial communications connections on page 63 for connection and isolation details).
The communications port applies a 2 unit load to the communications network.
USB/EIA232 to EIA485 Communications
An external USB/EIA232 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.
Suitable USB to EIA485 and EIA232 to EIA485 isolated converters are available from Control Techniques as follows:
CT USB Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0096)
CT EIA232 Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0087)
When using one of the above converters or any other suitable converter with the Unidrive SP, 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.

5.12.2 Serial communications set-up parameters

The following parameters need to be set according to the system requirements.
0.35 {11.24} Serial mode
RW Txt US
Ú
AnSI (0)
rtU (1)
Ö
This parameter defines the communications protocol used by the 485 comms port on the drive. This parameter can be changed via the drive keypad, via a Solutions Module or via the comms interface itself. If it is changed via the comms interface, the response to the command uses the original protocol. The master should wait at least 20ms before send a new message using the new protocol. (Note: ANSI uses 7 data bits, 1 stop bit and even parity; Modbus RTU uses 8 data bits, 2 stops bits and no parity.)

Modbus RTU
When the Modbus RTU protocol is used addresses between 0 and 247 are permitted. Address 0 is used to globally address all slaves, and so this address should not be set in this parameter
ANSI
When the ANSI protocol is used the first digit is the group and the second digit is the address within a group. The maximum permitted group number is 9 and the maximum permitted address within a group is
9. Therefore, Pr 0.37 is limited to 99 in this mode. The value 00 is used to globally address all slaves on the system, and x0 is used to address all slaves of group x, therefore these addresses should not be set in this parameter.

Pr 0.15 sets the ramp mode of the drive as shown below:
0: Fast ramp
Fast ramp is used where the deceleration follows the programmed deceleration rate subject to current limits. This mode must be used if a braking resistor is connected to the drive.
1: Standard ramp
Standard ramp is used. During deceleration, if the voltage rises to the standard ramp level (Pr
2.08
) it causes a controller to operate, the output of which changes the demanded load current in the motor. As the controller regulates the link voltage, the motor deceleration increases as the speed approaches zero speed. When the motor deceleration rate reaches the programmed deceleration rate the controller ceases to operate and the drive continues to decelerate at the programmed rate. If the standard ramp voltage (Pr
2.08
) is set lower than the nominal DC bus level the drive will not decelerate the motor, but it will coast to rest. The output of the ramp controller (when active) is a current demand that is fed to the frequency changing current controller (Open-loop modes) or the torque producing current controller (Closed-loop vector or Servo modes). The gain of these controllers can be modified with Pr
4.13

Closed-loop vector
The motor rated full load rpm parameter (Pr 0.45) in conjunction with the motor rated frequency parameter (Pr 0.46) defines the full load slip of the motor. The slip is used in the motor model for closed-loop vector control. The full load slip of the motor varies with rotor resistance which can vary significantly with motor temperature. When Pr 0.33 is set to 1 or 2, the drive can automatically sense if the value of slip defined by Pr 0.45 and Pr 0.46 has been set incorrectly or has varied with motor temperature. If the value is incorrect parameter Pr 0.45 is automatically adjusted. The adjusted value in Pr 0.45 is not saved at power-down. If the new value is required at the next power-up it must be saved by the user.
Automatic optimization is only enabled when the speed is above 12.5% of rated speed, and when the load on the motor load rises above 62.5% rated load. Optimization is disabled again if the load falls below 50% of rated load.
For best optimization results the correct values of stator resistance (Pr
5.17), transient inductance (Pr 5.24), stator inductance (Pr 5.25) and saturation breakpoints (Pr 5.29, Pr 5.30) should be stored in the relevant parameters. These values can be obtained by the drive during an autotune (see Pr 0.40 for further details).
Rated rpm auto-tune is not available if the drive is not using external position/speed feedback.
The gain of the optimizer, and hence the speed with which it converges, can be set at a normal low level when Pr 0.33 is set to 1. If this parameter is set to 2 the gain is increased by a factor of 16 to give faster convergence.

Open-Loop
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.
The stationary autotune can be used when the motor is loaded and it is not possible to remove the load from the motor shaft.
A rotating autotune first performs a stationary autotune, before rotating the motor at
2
/3 base speed in the forward direction for
several seconds. The motor must be free from load for the rotating autotune.
To perform an autotune, set Pr 0.40 to 1 for a stationary test or 2 for a rotating test, and provide the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal 31) and a run signal (on terminal 26 or 27).
To perform an autotune, set Pr 0.40 to 1 for a stationary test or 2 for a rotating test, and provide the drive with an enable signal (on terminal 31) and press the green (hand) button.
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 SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) signal from terminal 31, setting the drive enable parameter Pr 6.15 to OFF (0) or disabling the drive via the control word (Pr 6.42 & Pr 6.43).
For further information refer to section Pr 0.40 {5.12} Autotune on page 106.
Closed-loop
There are three autotune tests available in closed loop vector 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.
The stationary autotune can be used when the motor is loaded and it is not possible to remove the load from the motor shaft.
A rotating autotune first performs a stationary autotune, before rotating the motor at
2
/3 base speed in the forward direction for
approximately 30 seconds. The motor must be free from load for the rotating autotune.

Running
the motor
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 Speed loop gains, below) and to provide torque feed forwards when required during acceleration. During the inertia measurement test
the motor speed changes from
1
/3 to 2/3 rated speed in the forward
direction several times. The motor can be loaded with a constant torque load and still give an accurate result, however, non-linear loads and loads that change with speed will cause measurement errors.
To perform an autotune, set Pr 0.40 to 1 for a stationary test, 2 for a rotating test, or 3 for an inertia measurement test and provide the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal 31) and a run signal (on terminal 26 or 27).
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 SAFE TORQUE OFF (SECURE DISABLE) signal from terminal 31, setting the drive enable parameter Pr 6.15 to OFF (0) or disabling the drive via the control word (Pr 6.42 & Pr 6.43).
Setting Pr 0.40 to 4 will cause the drive to calculate the current loop gains based on the previously measured values of motor resistance and inductance. The drive does apply any voltage to the motor during this test. The drive will change Pr 0.40 back to 0 as soon as the calculations are complete (approximately 500ms).
For further information refer to section Pr 0.40 {5.12} Autotune on page 109.
Servo
There are five autotune tests available in servo mode, a short low speed test, a normal low speed test, an inertia measurement test, a stationary test and a minimal movement test. A normal low speed should be done where possible as the drive measures the stator resistance and inductance of the motor, and from these calculates the current loop gains. An inertia measurement test should be performed separately to a short low speed or normal low speed autotune.
A short low speed test will rotate the motor by 2 electrical revolutions (i.e. up to 2 mechanical revolutions) in the forward direction, and measure the encoder phase angle. The motor must be free from load for this test.
A normal low speed test will rotate the motor by 2 electrical revolutions (i.e. up to 2 mechanical revolutions) in the forward direction. This test measures the encoder phase angle and updates other parameters including the current loop gains. The motor must be free from load for this test.
The inertia measurement test can measure the total inertia of the load and the motor. This is used to set the speed loop gains and to provide torque feed forwards when required during acceleration. During the inertia measurement test the motor speed changes from
1
/3 to 2/3 rated speed in the forward direction several times. The
motor can be loaded with a constant torque load and still give an accurate result, however, non-linear loads and loads that change with speed will cause measurement errors.
The stationary test only measures the motor resistance and inductance, and updates the current loop gain parameters. This test does not measure the encoder phase angle so this test needs to be done in conjunction with either the short low speed or minimal movement tests.
The minimal movement test will move the motor through a small angle to measure the encoder phase angle. This test will operate correctly when the load is an inertia, and although a small amount of cogging and stiction is acceptable, this test cannot be used for a loaded motor.
To perform an autotune, set Pr 0.40 to 1 for a short low speed test, 2 for a normal low speed test, 3 for an inertia measurement test, 4 for a stationary test or 5 for a minimal movement test, and provide the drive with both an enable signal (on terminal 31) and a run signal (on terminal 26 or 27).

This parameter defines the required switching frequency. The drive may automatically reduce the actual switching frequency (without changing this parameter) if the power stage becomes too hot. A thermal model of the IGBT junction temperature is used based on the heatsink temperature and an instantaneous temperature drop using the drive output current and switching frequency. The estimated IGBT junction temperature is displayed in Pr 7.34. If the temperature exceeds 145°C the switching frequency is reduced if this is possible (i.e >3kHz). Reducing the switching frequency reduces the drive losses and the junction temperature displayed in Pr 7.34 also reduces. If the load condition persists the junction temperature may continue to rise again above 145°C and the drive cannot reduce the switching frequency further the drive will initiate an ‘O.ht1’ trip. Every second the drive will attempt to restore the switching frequency to the level set in Pr 0.41.
The full range of switching frequencies is not available on all ratings of Unidrive SP. See section 8.5 Switching frequency on page 117, for the maximum available switching frequency for each drive rating.

The power factor is the true power factor of the motor, i.e. the angle between the motor voltage and current.
Open-loop
The power factor is used in conjunction with the motor rated current (Pr 0.46) to calculate the rated active current and magnetizing current of the motor. The rated active current is used extensively to control the drive, and the magnetizing current is used in vector mode Rs compensation. It is important that this parameter is set up correctly.
This parameter is obtained by the drive during a rotational autotune. If a stationary autotune is carried out, then the nameplate value should be entered in Pr 0.43.
Closed-loop vector
If the stator inductance (Pr 5.25) contains a non-zero value, the power factor used by the drive is continuously calculated and used in the vector control algorithms (this will not update Pr 0.43).
If the stator inductance is set to zero (Pr 5.25) then the power factor written in Pr 0.43 is used in conjunction with the motor rated current and other motor parameters to calculate the rated active and magnetizing currents which are used in the vector control algorithm.
This parameter is obtained by the drive during a rotational autotune. If a stationary autotune is carried out, then the nameplate value should be entered in Pr 0.43.

The phase angle between the rotor flux in a servo motor and the encoder position is required for the motor to operate correctly. If the phase angle is known it can be set in this parameter by the user. Alternatively the drive can automatically measure the phase angle by performing a phasing test (see autotune in servo mode Pr 0.40). When the test is complete the new value is written to this parameter. The encoder phase angle can be modified at any time and becomes effective immediately. This parameter has a factory default value of 0.0, but is not affected when defaults are loaded by the user.

synchronous speed - slip speed). Entering the correct value into this parameter allows the drive to increase the output frequency as a function of load in order to compensate for this speed drop.
Slip compensation is disabled if Pr 0.45 is set to 0 or to synchronous speed, or if Pr 5.27 is set to 0.
If slip compensation is required this parameter should be set to the value from the rating plate of the motor, 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.
Closed loop vector
Rated load rpm is used with motor rated frequency to determine the full load slip of the motor which is used by the vector control algorithm. Incorrect setting of this parameter can result in the following:
Reduced efficiency of motor operation
Reduction of maximum torque available from the motor
Failure to reach maximum speed
Over-current trips
Reduced transient performance
Inaccurate control of absolute torque in torque control modes The nameplate value is normally the value for a hot machine, however, some adjustment may be required when the drive is commissioned if the nameplate value is inaccurate. The rated full load rpm can be optimized by the drive (For further information, refer to section 8.1.3 Closed loop vector motor control on page 111).

7 Running the motor

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 .
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 0.46 Motor rated current. This affects the thermal protection of the motor.
If the keypad mode has been used previously, ensure that
the keypad reference has been set to 0 using the buttons as if the drive is started using the keypad it will run to
the speed defined by the keypad reference (Pr 0.35).
If the intended maximum speed affects the safety of the machinery, additional independent over-speed protection must be used.
Speed and position feedback
Suitable devices are:
Incremental encoder (A, B or F, D with or without Z) with commutation signals (U, V, W)
Incremental encoder with forward and reverse outputs (F, R with or without Z) and commutation outputs (U, V, W)
SINCOS encoder (with Stegmann Hiperface, EnDat or SSI communications protocols)
EnDat absolute encoder
For Solutions Module terminal information see section 11.15 Menus 15, 16 and 17: Solutions Module set-up on page 185 or the appropriate Solutions Module option user guide.

7.2 Changing the operating mode

Changing the operating mode returns all parameters to their default value, including the motor parameters. (Pr 0.49 and Pr 0.34 are not affected by this procedure.)
Procedure
Use the following procedure only if a different operating mode is required:
1. Enter either of the following values in Pr xx.00, as appropriate: 1253 (EUR, 50Hz AC supply frequency) 1254 (USA, 60Hz AC supply frequency)
2. Change the setting of Pr 0.48 as follows:

The drive is able to perform either a stationary or a rotating autotune. The motor must be at a standstill before an autotune is enabled. 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 uncouple the load from the motor shaft. A stationary autotune measures the stator
Autotune
resistance of the motor and the voltage offset in the drive. These are required for good performance in vector control modes. A stationary autotune does not measure the power factor of the motor so the value on the motor nameplate must be entered into Pr 0.43.
A rotating autotune should only be used if the motor is uncoupled. A rotating autotune first performs a stationary autotune before rotating the motor at

If catch a spinning motor mode is not required then set Pr 6.09 to 0. If catch a spinning motor mode is required then leave Pr 6.09 at the default of 1, but depending on the size of the motor the value in Pr 5.40 may need to be adjusted. Pr 5.40 defines a scaling function used by the algorithm that detects the speed of the motor. The default value of Pr 5.40 is 1 which is suitable for small motors (<4kW). For larger motors the value in Pr 5.40 will need to be increased. Approximate values of Pr 5.40 for different motor sizes are as follows, 2 for 11kW, 3 for 55kW and 5 for 150kW. If the value of Pr 5.40 is too large the motor may accelerate from standstill when the drive is enabled. If the value of this parameter is too small the drive will detect the motor speed as zero even if the motor is spinning.
The drive is able to perform either a stationary or a rotating autotune. The motor must be at a standstill before an autotune is enabled. 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.
It is highly recommended that a rotating autotune is performed (Pr 0.40 set to 2).
