Chapter 2 Faults and Troubleshooting

Introduction

For information on using the keypad refer to the drive User's Guide, GEH-6382.
GEH-6401 describes the toolbox.
The drive software includes selftest diagnostics to aid in troubleshooting. When these tests detect an unfavorable condition, they output fault indications to the drive’s operator interfaces: the door-mounted Drive Diagnostic Interface (DDI, referred to as the keypad) or a connected PC running the GE Control System Toolbox (the toolbox). An operator can then use either interface to examine the fault and clear it, as applicable.
This chapter lists and defines the relevant fault messages for the drive, with troubleshooting suggestions. It is organized as follows:

Types of Faults

Fault Indication

There are currently two types of fault conditions:
Alarm faults indicate conditions that you should note, but that are not serious
enough to automatically shut down or trip the drive. If the condition goes away, some alarm faults clear themselves and the display then identifies the alarm as brief. Otherwise, you must stop the drive to clear this type of fault.
Trip faults indicate a more serious condition that needs to be corrected.
Therefore, it trips the drive. The drive should not be restarted until the condition is corrected.
You can clear most faults by selecting Clear Faults on the drive’s keypad or in the (optional) toolbox program.
The DSPX board is the IS200DSPX Digital Signal Processor, located in the drive control rack.
The drive indicates a fault condition on the keypad, toolbox display, and on the DSPX board.
On the keypad, a fault icon appears in the right side of the display: The operator can then use the keypad to access the fault/alarm description (see Figure 5-1) and to clear the fault.

The toolbox uses a Windows-based PC display. When a fault occurs, the word
Alarm or Trip appears in the lower right corner of the screen. You can view a description and clear the fault using the toolbox functions. (GE publication GEH­6401 describes these tools and this feature.)
The DSPX Fault LED displays at the front of the drive’s control rack. This red indicator is on solid for a fault and flashes for an alarm.
A fault is identified by an assigned number and abbreviated description. Both of these are displayed when an operator examines a fault using the keypad (see Figure 2-1) or the toolbox.

1 CPFP isolation lost Trip
2 Illegal seq state Trip
The CPFP isolation lost trip fault is hardware generated. The CPFP power supply isolation card is indicating that power supply isolation to the phase modules has been compromised. The CPFP card is designed to provide control power to circuit cards in the high voltage compartment. This card has a double voltage barrier that isolates the phases from each other and from the control. This fault indicates that one of these voltage barriers has failed. This is a dangerous situation since failure of the second barrier could cause dangerous voltages to conduct into the control cabinet or cause a phase­phase short on the CPFP card. The fault is generated when the status light conducted via fiber from the CPFP goes out. The fiber connects CPFP (PWR OK) to FOSA (SPARE-R). Check that the fiber is installed correctly. Disconnect the fiber from FOSA and look for the status light traveling up the fiber. If you do not see a light then the problem is on CPFP. If there is light then the problem is on FOSA or BICM.
Primary causes:
CPFP power supply failure Fiber not connected
Possible board failures:
CPFP FOSA BICM
Possible wiring faults:
Power distribution wiring to CPFP.
The Illegal seq state trip fault occurs when the sequencer state (variable Sequencer state) is unrecognized. This trip may occur during system development but should not occur in the field.

6 Run cmd during init Alarm
The Cont failed to close trip fault occurs when contactor A is commanded to open or close and fails to do so within the allowed time (defined by parameter MA pickup time).
Primary causes:
The contactor A feedback is missing or bad.
Possible configuration faults:
The allowed time for contactor A to open and close is too short. The allowed time is represented by parameter MA pickup time. Contactor A feedback is enabled when no contactor is present in the system. In the absence of the contactor, parameter MA contactor fbk should be set equal to Disable.

The Run cmd during init alarm occurs when a Run request, Jog request, Full flux request, or diagnostic test (cell test, pulse test, autotune) request is issued during drive initialization. When the alarm occurs, the request to perform a drive action is ignored.
Primary causes:
The external application layer issues a request to perform a drive action during drive initialization. An external input (i.e. digital input) used to request a drive action was high during drive initialization.

function on the BICM is not functioning correctly. You will not receive this warning unless you are using drive firmware version V02.21.00B or higher AND you have a BICMH1AB version card or higher. Older versions of software and hardware suffer from Vdc feedback inaccuracy, which can lead to problems in some circumstances. Getting the trim function to operate properly is important to optimum performance of the drive. There are several situations that can lead to this alarm. First, make sure you have run the Cell Test Wizard (either fiber optic test or bridge cell test) at least once when the DC link is fully discharged (<100V). This wizard calibrates the DC bus feedback and saves a parameter in the drive. This procedure does not need to be repeated unless hardware has changed in the drive or the previously saved parameter was overwritten by a parameter downloaded from the toolbox. If this procedure has not been performed then this alarm is generated. Second, make sure that JP1 on the BICMH1AB card has been moved to the non-default position. This jumper enables the circuit that this alarm is concerned with. The jumper JP1 being in the dashed-box indicates the non­default position. The jumper being in the solid box indicates the default position. The default position is used only when the card is placed in drives that have software versions prior to V02.21.00B If both if these steps fail to clear this alarm then your BICM card may be defective. Primary board failures BICM
the capture buffer. The capture buffer has been disabled and will not run. However the drive should operate normally. A new version of firmware is required to correct this problem.
The MA cont not closed trip fault occurs when the MA feedback indicates that the MA contactor is open when it is commanded to close.

The Power dip trip fault occurs when the DC link voltage feedback (variable DC bus voltage) falls below the power dip level and remains below the power dip level longer than the power dip time. The power dip time is configurable through parameter Power dip control. If the DC link voltage feedback is at some moments below the power dip level and at some moments above the power dip level, the trip fault can occur. If over any time interval the DC link feedback spends more time below the power dip level than above the power dip level, and the time difference is greater than the power dip time, Power dip occurs.
Possible configuration faults:
Power dip functionality is disabled because param eter Power dip control is set incorrectly. To enable power dip functionality parameter Power dip control should be set equal to 0.500 sec (Enable).

measurements are invalid when the drive is started. Generally the alarm occurs when the drive is stopped and quickly started again. The voltage offsets are represented by variables A-B, Voltage offset and B-C, Voltage offset. They are the outputs of automatic voltage offset measurements. They are valid for a certain length of time after the measurements are performed. The voltage offset measurements are performed when the drive is started and enough time has elapsed to cause the previous voltage offset measurements to be invalid. However, there is an exception to this statem ent. The offset measurements are not performed during the flux decay time, which begins when the drive is stopped and continues for 8 rotor time constants. When the drive is started during the flux decay tim e, and the previous offset measurements are invalid because too much time has elapsed since they were performed, the Motor volt offs high alarm occurs.

135 AC line transient Alarm
The AC line transient alarm occurs as a result of significant phase lock loop error or significant phase imbalance. A phase imbalance signal is calculated by subtracting a control calculated threshold from a filtered signal which is formed by filtering the sum of two signals. One of these signals is the phase lock loop error and the other is the error between the demodulated real component of line voltage and the measured magnitude of the line. The calculated threshold phase imbalance level which is computed by the control is based on the magnitude of the input line voltage. This calculated phase imbalance threshold represents a phase imbalance of about 18% or a phase lock loop error of about 6.7 degrees. The phase imbalance signal which is a result of the previously mentioned subtraction is equal to about 18% imbalance when it becomes positive. The phase imbalance signal feeds an integrator designed to cause the AC line transient alarm when the threshold has been exceeded for a very short time. That amount of time is dependent upon the amount of the phase imbalance, but the alarm will occur eventually if the imbalance signal remains positive.
Primary causes:
AC line disturbances. Transient phase imbalances. Weak control of frequency on diesel generator sets or gas turbine generator sets. Very fast voltage magnitude changes. Damaged reactor or transformer

A phase imbalance signal is calculated by subtracting a control calculated threshold from a filtered signal which is formed by filtering the sum of two signals. One of these signals is the phase lock loop error and the other is the error between the demodulated real component of line voltage and the measured magnitude of the line.

That amount of time is dependent upon the amount of the phase imbalance, but the alarm will occur eventually if the imbalance signal remains positive. If the alarm persists continuously for about one second, the AC line watchdog trip fault will occur.

Possible board failures:
VATF-SRC FOSA BICM DSPX
The AC line rev phs seq trip fault occurs when the control senses that the rotation of the AC line is opposite of what is expected. This condition is checked only one time after the control is powered up. When the phase lock loop locks for the first time, just after the charging sequence has begun, the sign of PLL frequency is checked against the expected sign. The expected sign is determined by the setting of Phase rotation req. If Forward sequence is selected, the sign of PLL frequency is expected to be positive, otherwise, it must be negative. If the expected sign is not found, the trip fault is given. AC line rev phs seq requires a hard reset to clear. Before changing Phase rotation req, review the rotation of any AC cooling pumps or blowers in the drive. Incorrect phase sequence can lead to ineffective air or water flow in the cooling system.
Primary causes:
Control senses wrong phase sequence.
Possible board failures:
VATF-SRC FOSA BICM DSPX

Primary causes:
The saturation curve data entered by the operator is bad. The saturation curve data calculated by autotune is bad.
Possible configuration faults:
One or more of the saturation curve parameters is bad. The saturation curve parameters are Flux curve amps 1, Flux curve amps 2, Flux curve amps 3,
Flux curve amps 4, Flux curve amps 5, Flux curve voltage 1, Flux curve voltage 2, Flux curve voltage 3, Flux curve voltage 4, and Flux curve voltage 5.
The Rated flux data bad trip fault occurs when the motor control calculation of rated flux (variable 100% Flux) does not converge to a stable value.
151 Leakage curve bad Trip The Leakage curve bad trip fault occurs when the leakage flux curve is not
monotonic (i.e. Point 1 < point 2 < point 3 < point 4 < point 5).
Primary causes:
The calculated leakage curve has been derived from bad motor reactance data. The leakage curve data entered by the operator is bad. The leakage curve data calculated by autotune is bad.
Possible configuration faults:
When the leakage curve is not entered specifically point-by-point (see below) one is calculated from Starting react Xst, Magnetizing react Xm, Stator lkg react X1, and Rotor lkg react X2. The relationship between these parameters should be: (Rotor lkg react X2 || Magnetizing react Xm) + Stator lkg react X1 > Starting react Xst. If Motor reac parms bad fault is also present, this is the likely cause. When the leakage curve is not entered specifically point-by-point, one or more of the leakage curve parameters is bad. The leakage curve parameters are
Lkg flux current 1, Lkg flux current 2, Lkg flux current 3, Lkg flux current 4, Lkg flux current 5, Lkg flux voltage 1, Lkg flux voltage 2, Lkg flux voltage 3, Lkg flux voltage 4, and Lkg flux voltage 5. If the leakage parameters are not set, the
leakage curve is determined as above, or as the results of autotune.

Capture Buffer

The Innovation Series capture buffer is used to collect coherent data at a specified rate in the drive. The capture buffer is circular, and will collect a fixed number of samples of each data channel before overwriting the oldest data. The capture buffer can be triggered on any available variable signal in the drive by using a Boolean trigger mode or comparison to a value. The capture buffer will also trigger on a Trip fault. It is useful for capturing drive variables for troubleshooting field problems and capturing specific drive events. The Trend Recorder can display the capture buffer output.
Function Inputs
The following table specifies the input parameters to the Capture Buffer function.
Parameter Description
Capture ch1 select Selects capture buffer channel #1 variable.
Capture ch2 select Selects capture buffer channel #2 variable.
Capture ch3 select Selects capture buffer channel #3 variable.
Channels 3 & 4 are active when Capture buff
config is set to either 4 channels enabled or 8 channels enabled.
Capture ch4 select Selects capture buffer channel #4 variable.
Capture ch5 select Selects capture buffer channel #5 variable.
Channels 5, 6, 7, & 8 are active when Capture buff config is set to 8 channels enabled.
Capture ch6 select Selects capture buffer channel #6 variable.
Capture ch7 select Selects capture buffer channel #7 variable.
Capture ch8 select Selects capture buffer channel #8 variable.

Function Configuration
The following table specifies the parameters that configure the size and execution rate of the capture buffer.
Parameter Description
Capture buff config
Capture period
Specifies the number of channels to collect. The depth of the capture buffer is inversely proportional to the number of channels collected. Possible values are:
2 channels enabled
4 channels enabled
8 channels enabled
Note Whenever this parameter is modified, the capture buffer must be re-enabled to collect data with the new channel configuration.
Determines the rate at which the capture buffer collects data. Each rate in the enumeration list is based on a particular execution rate in the processor. Actual execution rates vary between each Innovation Series product. Possible values are:
Disable - Disables the capture buffer from collecting data.
Task 1 rate - Collects data at the fastest execution rate of the processor.
Task 2 rate - Collects data at n times slower than Task 1 rate. (n Task 1’s are executed every 1 Task 2).
Task 3 rate - Collects data at m times slower than Task 2 rate. (m Task 2’s are executed every 1 Task 3).
Note Whenever this parameter is modified, the capture buffer must be re-enabled to collect data at the new rate.
Capture period gain Increases the collection period of the capture buffer
(data is collected at a slower rate). For an integer value, n (>1), the capture buffer would collect data
th
execution of the Capture period.
Cap re-enable delay
every n
Controls an auto re-enable function for the capture buffer. This param eter sets the delay from when the capture buffer has completed its collection to when the capture buffer is re-enabled automatically. Minutes.
The capture buffer will only re-enable when the drive is not stopped (Stopped is False). If Cap re-enable delay expires when the drive is stopped, the capture buffer will not re-enable until the drive is running again.
Note A value of –1 disables the auto re-enable function.

Capture Buffer Compatible Behavior
To view more than 4 channels or more than 512 samples, the Capture Buffer function should be used with a GE Control System Toolbox with a release of at least V6.1. Toolbox version prior to the V6.1 release can handle a maximum capture buffer size of 4 channels x 512 samples.
The capture buffer will present the collected data in a backward compatible format if used in conjunction with an older Toolbox release, however, because the capture buffer size has increased, only a sub-set of the data will be presented when viewed with an older Toolbox.

General Purpose Constants

Each Innovation Series product provides three general purpose constants. The general purpose constants allow users to place constant values in device variables. The general purpose constants are particularly useful in configuring diagnostic functions.
Function inputs
The following table specifies the input parameters of the General Purpose Constants function.
Parameter Description
GP Constant 1 User defined constant 1
GP Constant 2 User defined constant 2
GP Constant 3 User defined constant 3
Function outputs
The following table specifies the output variables of the General Purpose Constants function.
Variable Description
GP Constant 1 User defined constant 1
GP Constant 2 User defined constant 2
GP Constant 3 User defined constant 3
Function description
The General Purpose Constants function sets the general purpose constant output variables equal to the general purpose constant input parameters:
GP Constant 1 = GP Constant 1
GP Constant 2 = GP Constant 2
GP Constant 3 = GP Constant 3
The units of the general purpose constants are determined by their use. For example, if one of the constants is used as a comparison level in a diagnostic function such as an SLD, the implied units of the constant are the internal control units of the signal against which the comparison is made. The units of the general purpose constant are not necessarily the display units of the comparison signal. For more information on the difference between display units and internal control units, see the Language and Units Presentation function help.

General Setup Functions

Keypad Overview

The Drive Diagnostic Interface (DDI; also known as the keypad) is mounted on the door of an Innovation Series drive. The DDI provides a simple, easily accessible means for a user to set, monitor, and maintain the drive locally.
The DDI provides both analog and digital representations of drive functions and values. Its keypad is logically organized into two functional groups: navigation keys and drive control keys. The Run and Stop keys are set to the side for easy access.
The operator can use the DDI to perform the following common tasks:
Monitor speed / current / voltage / power
Start/Stop the drive
Adjust a configuration parameter
Reset a fault condition
Commission the drive through a wizard
Each drive has its own DDI for local control.

Keypad Contrast Adjustment

Normally the LCD contrast of the Drive Diagnostic Interface (DDI) should be adjusted at the DDI or keypad. The user can modify the Keypad contrast adj parameter under the General Setup -> Keypad -> Keypad Functions menu.
A special keypad key sequence is also available to make this adjustment and is especially useful when the contrast is too light or too dark to navigate the menus. The sequence is to hold down the Menu key and press either the up (darker) or down (lighter) arrow keys until the contrast is acceptable.
If your DDI firmware version is prior to V02.01.03C and the DDI contrast is too light or too dark to navigate through the menus you will need to use Toolbox to find the Keypad contrast adj parameter and make the adjustment.
Function configuration
Parameter Description
Keypad contrast adj Adjusts the contrast of the DDI LCD screen. Values are
from 0 to 63 where 63 is the darkest contrast. Setting Keypad contrast adj to 0 will cause the DDI to adjust the contrast to a middle value.
Note Once Keypad contrast adj has been modified in the toolbox and then saved in the drive, a hard reset must be performed for the user to see their modification to the contrast reflected in the DDI.

Analog Inputs/Outputs and Mapping

Analog Inputs
Two bipolar (±10 volts) analog inputs are available at the terminal board (ATB).
Jumpers on the BAIA board connect a burden resistor that allow these inputs to be used for 4-20 ma references.
Analog in 1 offset and Analog in 2 offset provide a voltage offset adjustment. Analog in 1 gain and Analog in 2 gain can be used to scale the inputs from volts to
appropriate application units. Analog in 1 filter and Analog in 2 filter provide first- order signal softening at Analog input 1 and Analog input 2.
Loss of 4-20 ma signal can be configured by selecting a lower threshold Analog in 1
flt lev and Analog in 2 flt lev and then selecting the appropriate fault type, Analog in 1 flt mode and Analog in 2 flt mode.
Analog Outputs
Two bipolar (±10 volts) DAC outputs are available at the terminal board (ATB).
The signal to be output is selected by Analog out 1 select. This signal can be offset by Analog out 1 offset using the same units as the signal to be output. The signal is scaled for output by setting Analog out 1 scale to the value that will produce +10 volts. The second DAC is configured in a similar manner.
Meters
Four bipolar (±10 volts) meter drivers are available for use with the optional meter
assembly. This assembly is connected to the drive at connector J8 on the backplane.
The signal to be metered is selected by Analog meter 1 sel. This signal can be offset by Meter 1 offset using the same units as the signal to be metered. The signal is scaled for output by setting Analog meter 1 scale to the value which shall produce +10 volts. Meter 1 mode is used to accommodate both 0 - +10 volt meters and -10 ­+10 volt meters. Analog meter 1 scale is unaffected by Meter 1 mode. The remaining three meters are configured similarly.

Digital Inputs/Outputs and Mapping

Digital inputs and outputs provide an interface between the outside world and the control. The ATB (terminal board) provides six general purpose digital inputs. Three dry contact relays and one solid state relay driver are provided as outputs. System and Local fault strings provide start and trip interlocks to the control.
Isolated digital inputs are listed with their associated terminal board points. A filter debounces a noisy input signal. The filter should be set to zero in most instances, since the hardware provides a level of debounce conditioning. The variables Digital input 1 through Digital input 6 indicate the logical state of each digital input and are used to interface to functions in the drive that require a Boolean signal.
Each relay output may be used by setting the parameters Relay 1 select through Relay 3 select to the variables whose logical states are desired to drive the corresponding relay. The associated terminal board points are shown for output terminals of each relay. The variables Relay 1 state, Relay 2 state, and Relay 3 state indicates whether the relay coils are energized.
Relay four is a solid-state relay driver that should be used for driving a 24 V dc, 10 mA relay. The relay driver output may be used by setting the parameter SS relay
driver sel to the variable whose logical state is desired to drive the relay. Solid state relay indicates the status of the relay driver.
In addition to the four programmable outputs available on ATB, the drive provides 3 additional application outputs through the CTBC terminal board. The CTBC outputs are not programmable but instead are mapped to some commonly used signals in the drive. CTBC outputs are solid-state relay drivers that can be used for driving 24 V dc, 10 mA relays. Signals available on CTBC are as follows:
CTBC Output Pre-programmed function
D08 (pins 33 & 35)
D07 (pins 29 & 31)
D06 (pins 25 & 27)
Closed when No trip fault is True
Closed when Running is True
Closed when No faults active is True
A pilot relay controls a main contactor. Most applications do not require a contactor (see MA contactor absent). This contactor is normally controlled through drive sequencing, but it may be controlled alternately by MA close req sel. The contactor cannot be energized if either the Local Fault String or the System Fault String are open. If the contactor is closed and the Local Fault String or the System Fault String open, the contactor will be de-energized.
Contactor status feedback is available (MA contactor closed). MA contactor fbk determines if the drive sequencer requires MA contactor closed to be active in response to a contactor close command.

Expected communication frame period. Allowed frame periods are 1, 2, 4, and 8 milliseconds.
Function description
The product completely handles configuration of the Frame Phaselock Loop function. Appropriate user selections of Network interface activate the function, and user specification of LAN frame time sets the nominal period.
The Boolean variable Frame PLL OK status indicates the status of the Frame Phaselock Loop. The asserted state indicates that the function has been activated and that lock status has been validated. The unasserted state indicates that the function is not activated or that lock status is not validated.
The FPLL Phase error signal reflects the phase error when valid phase information has been extracted from the interface. A signal value of zero indicates either zero phase error or invalid phase information. Scaling is such that one per-unit phase error represents a full communication frame period.
The FPLL Freq Output signal is the frequency adjustment output of the function; the authority of the function to modify away from nominal frequency is strictly limited. When the function is not activated, the FPLL Freq Output signal is zero. When the function is activated but no valid phase information is detected, then FPLL Freq Output maintains its last valid calculated value.
When phaselock is achieved, Frame PLL OK status is asserted, FPLL Phase error is at a zero-mean steady-state value, and FPLL Freq Output is at a non-zero, but very small, steady-state value. When the Frame Phaselock Loop has been requested by configuration but phaselock is not achieved, then Frame PLL not OK is shown.

Function description
Determining the integrity of the LAN interface involves several communication layers, and may vary depending upon the specific communication options in use. The Innovation Series Drive has two levels of validation available: LAN watchdog and LAN heartbeat. Status information is conveyed to the user and/or application by status signals and fault declarations.
GEH-6385 Reference and Troubleshooting, 2300 V Drives Chapter 3 Paramters/Functions
••••
3-37
The LAN watchdog function describes the set of mechanisms the drive uses to determine the status of the connection between DSPX and the module immediately “above” the drive in the LAN hierarchy. For Dual-Port RAM interfaces, such as that used for an embedded ACLA controller and for a direct LAN interface, the watchdog takes the form of a handshake protocol. In this handshake protocol, the drive determines the presence of a minimum level of intelligence on the host on the LAN side of the shared memory. For ISBus interfaces, such as that used by a remote or embedded ACLA controller, the watchdog reflects the reception of ISBus frame synchronization codes. The watchdog function’s immediate authority is limited to alarms and status variables, although the status information does play a functional role in the interface management. Note that the watchdog does not offer information about the LAN connection’s status which may be supported beyond the immediate interface to DSPX. In fact, many device networks offer no means of determining basic network health.
The LAN heartbeat function is visible to the user. The heartbeat function uses published signal map channels, and is available for use by the application. It provides a means to “loop back” a signal between the drive and any level in the LAN hierarchy so a higher-level controller can validate the entire connection pathway, including the drive itself. Locally, the drive can be configured to trigger a trip or alarm if the heartbeat reference signal fails to transition within a configurable period of time. The heartbeat offers the most robust validation options from a system perspective, although it offers the least information about the detected problem’s location.
The System ISBus error alarm occurs when an ISBus fault is detected in the DSPX control. The variable Sys ISBus error reg contains the bit-coded value of the last ISBus fault detected; each bit indicates a particular ISBus fault seen by the control. The variable Sys ISBus error cnt increments upon fault detection. When initializing the interface, the user should expect the alarm to signal intermittently.
The Frame PLL not OK alarm occurs when phase-lock between the DSPX control and the System ISBus or (local ACL) is not assured. Detection of the fault is enabled when the parameter Network interface is configured to select an interface for which synchronized operation is supported. This alarm indicates that data coherency is compromised. Status of the Frame Phaselock Loop function can be observed via the signals Frame PLL OK status, FPLL Phase error, and FPLL Freq Output.

LAN Signal Map

The following information describes the primary signal interface between the Innovation Series Drive and the product application layer interface. The application layer may consist of an embedded ACL card, a direct LAN interface card, or an application-level ISBus serial bus.
The LAN Signal Map is a fixed signal map that defines dedicated registered communication channels for specific signals. It is defined in terms of paired reference and feedback pages that are the same size physically. The internal data organization of the reference and feedback pages may differ. The standard Innovation Series signal map page consists of eight 32-bit elements.

Motor Control Functions

Motor Control Overview

The Innovation Induction motor control algorithm utilizes a Flux-Vector control strategy. The motor control features include the following:
Motor torque, flux and thermal models
Online motor parameters adaptation
Voltage and current regulators
Voltage feedback offset correction
Power-Dip ride through control
Tach and Tachless mode operation
Tach loss detection
Current limit and Motor pull-out limit
Automatic field-weakening control
Torque Compensation
Cross-over voltage control
Motor Equivalent Circuit parameter information is required for the motor controller. These parameters can be obtained by running the Motor Control Tuneup wizard during commissioning of the drive. The motor parameters will change due to motor temperature variations; because of this, on-line parameter adaptation, motor thermal model and torque compensation schemes (shown in diagram, Motor Control (Ovr_MCtrl) are incorporated in the motor control to enable accurate tracking of torque, flux and calculated speed.
Motor electrical models are used to form feedforward models, feedback torque, flux and speed calculations.
The induction motor controller can be used with or without tachometer. It can also be configured to operate in tachometer control mode with automatic switch over to Tachless control upon detection of a Tach-loss situation (comparison between model calculated speed and actual speed feedback signal).
Field flux control can be manipulated by Flux ref ratio (inputs to motor control shown in the diagram, Motor Control (Ovr_MCtrl). However, if the inverter output voltage approaches its limit (Crossover Voltage) by increasing speed, an automatic field-weakening control will take action to limit the output voltage (by reducing flux command) to the Crossover Voltage level.
Current limits in the drive are affected by motor Pull-out torque capability, Power Dip Protection control, and user current limit setting (as shown in diagram Motor Control Interface (Core)). Motor pullout limit normally occurs when a large torque is demanded in deep field-weakening operating region.

Flux Curve

The Flux Curve describes the relationship between the induction motor voltage and current. Specifically, each point of the curve specifies the voltage that is measured at the motor terminals for a particular excitation current, under no load conditions at the nameplate frequency.
Function configuration
The Flux Curve consists of five voltage and current points. Two parameters are associated with each point. The following table lists the parameters that configure the Flux Curve.
Parameter Description
Flux curve voltage 1 No load voltage for data point 1. RMS volts
Flux curve voltage 2 No load voltage for data point 2. RMS volts
Flux curve voltage 3 No load voltage for data point 3. RMS volts
Flux curve voltage 4 No load voltage for data point 4. RMS volts
Flux curve voltage 5 No load voltage for data point 5. RMS volts
Flux curve amps 1 No load current for data point 1. RMS amps
Flux curve amps 2 No load current for data point 2. RMS amps
Flux curve amps 3 No load current for data point 3. RMS amps
Flux curve amps 4 No load current for data point 4. RMS amps
Flux curve amps 5 No load current for data point 5. RMS amps
The parameters listed above specify the curve if they contain meaningful values. If all the parameters are set to <No Value>, then the control uses the curve measured during Motor Control Tuneup.
Function description
Often the motor data sheet contains four or five voltage and current measurements that specify the Flux Curve. The voltage points are generally labeled "VNL" and the current points "INL".
If five data points are available on the motor data sheet, they can be entered directly into the configuration parameters. Flux curve voltage 1 and Flux curve amps 1 represent the smallest voltage and current, and Flux curve voltage 5 and Flux curve amps 5 represent the largest voltage and current.
If fewer than five data points are available on the motor data sheet, the highest data points should contain meaningful values and the lowest data points should be set to <No Value>. To reset one of the parameters to <No Value>, highlight the value and press the Delete key.
If the curve data is not available, all the configuration parameters should be set to
<No Value>, and the Flux Curve should be determined using the Motor Control Tuneup.

Leakage Inductance Curve

The Leakage Inductance Curve describes the relationship between motor leakage flux and torque current. The motor data sheet does not provide Leakage Inductance Curve information. The characteristics of the curve can be obtained experimentally or by running the Motor Control Tuneup.

The Line Transfer function transfers a motor from the drive to the utility line and captures a motor from the utility line to return control to the drive. In addition to the parameters and variables documented here the Line Transfer Tuneup wizard is provided to simplify and automate many of the tasks required to correctly commission this function. To use this function you must have the necessary contactors and operator interfaces as described in the "Innovation Series Line Transfer Application Guide".
