Preparations for Startup

1.2.4 Installation of FR Configurator

To use the FR Configurator (FR-SW2-SETUP-WE), the files included in the setup disks must be installed onto the personal

computer.

REMARKS

FR configurator is installed in a different folder from that of the old version inverter setup software. The old version inverter setup software

can be also used continuously.

However, when installing the old version inverter setup software after the installation of FR Configurator, FR Configurator will not operate.

In this case, uninstall FR Configurator (refer to page 10) and then install it again.

If the older version of the FR Configurator is installed (version information can be checked in "About VFD Setup S/W" screen, refer to page

67), uninstall the older version, and then install the new version of the FR Configurator.

To install the old version of the FR configurator, use the setup program (SETUP.EXE) on the Setup Disk . The setup program

creates a directory on the specified hard disk and copies the required files.

CAUTION

Since the files in the Setup Disk are compressed, the FR-Configurator will not operate by merely copying the files. Always use the setup

CAUTION

If the value of Interrogate Time is set shorter, the menu or buttons of each window may

be slow to respond depending on operating model and communication speed.

CAUTION

When using FA transparent communication, communication error (Time Out) may occur when FR Configurator starts communication during Time Out occurrence in GOT (when GOT is monitoring the inverter which is not connected). In that case, set the Time Out value more than the following.

Time Out value of GOT[s] x (Retry count of GOT + 1) x 3 x1000[ms] (500ms increments)

If the value above is more than 30[s], make adjustment to "Time Out value" and "Retry count" of GOT so that the value above is less than 30[s].

2.11.1 Machine Analyzer (Vector Control only)

Machine Analyzer reads and analyzes the torque and speed data when the inverter oscillates the motor at random torque for

about 0.5 to 4s.

This allows measurement of the response frequency characteristic of speed relative to the motor torque of the machine so

that you can grasp the frequency at which the mechanical system has the resonance point.

CAUTION

1. The Machine Analyzer function is available only for the system that can perform PLG vector control (FR-A7AP required).

2. Machine Analyzer will not work in the following cases.

• Inverter running

• When the second motor is selected (Pr. 450 "9999")

• When the control mode is other than the vector control mode (Pr. 800 "0 to 5")

• When Modbus-RTU communication is selected (Pr. 549 = "1")

• When PLC function is valid (Pr. 414 = "1") (NA/EC only) (Machine Analyzer cannot be executed, when Machine Analyzer display is activated during PLC function. Disable the PLC function,

and then close and open again the Machine Analyzer display or activate the other display once to perform the Machine Analyzer.)

FUNCTIONS

Advanced Function

Starting Machine Analyzer operation

(1)Set Stml condition.

" % of rated Torque"................Set the maximum oscillation torque for oscillating the

motor under a random torque command. (Setting range: 1 to 100%)

"Stroke"...................................Set the rotation range permitted for oscillation,

beginning at the motor position when Machine Analyzer is started. If this range is exceeded, Machine Analyzer is stopped immediately, and the motor is coasted in the vertical shaft mode or is coasted after deceleration in the normal mode.(Setting range: 1 to 1000)

REMARKS

• If a measurement result varies, accurate measurement may not have been made.

• Accurate measurement may not be made in a mechanical system whose oscillation torque is too small or whose friction is large. In such a case, increase the oscillation torque and restart Machine Analyzer.

• If the oscillation torque is too large relative to the load inertia moment, an overcurrent or similar alarm may occur. At that time, reduce the oscillation torque and restart Machine Analyzer.

• Starting oscillation automatically switches to the torque control mode and shifts the position. Before starting operation after oscillation, therefore, always make a home position return.

(2)Select the Stml mode

"Normal mode".......................The inverter operates in the torque control mode and

oscillates the motor randomly.

"Vertical Axis Mode".................A servo lock is placed in the speed control mode,

preventing a fall. Gain setting must have been made to ensure that stable servo lock operation will be performed.

REMARKS

In "Vertical Axis Mode"

• The accuracy of 100Hz or less on the low frequency side may become poor.

• The measurement accuracy becomes poor if the position loop gain (Pr. 422) is set too high.

CAUTION

When the machine is a vertical axis, always perform this function in the "Vertical Axis Mode" since a fall may occur.

(3)Press the button to display the message to confirm that the operation is at a stop.

Check that the operation status is at a stop, and click [OK].

REMARKS

" Stml Condition "..............................The following screen appears if either or both "% of rated Torque" and "Stroke" are

set outside the setting ranges.

Click the [OK] button to return to the Machine Analyzer setting screen.

The following screen appears when the "Vertical Axis Mode" is selected.

Click the [Cancel] button to return to the Machine Analyzer setting screen. Click the [OK] button to display the Machine Analyzer Operation start screen.

CAUTION

1. When Machine Analyzer is executed in the vertical shaft mode, a servo lock is first placed, the "Operation ready 2" signal is output, and then the motor is started in 0.5 seconds.

2. When an electromagnetic brake is used, assign the "Operation ready 2" signal to any of the output terminals and modify the circuit to open the electromagnetic brake using this signal. If this is not done, a machine drop or an overcurrent or similar alarm may occur. (For details of Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 "output terminal function selection", refer to the Instruction Manual (applied) of the inverter.)

(7) The frequency characteristics measured by Machine analyzer are displayed in Bode diagram.

For the waveform data, you can change the vertical axis scale and/or move the resonance point and anti-resonance

point cursors.

1) Setting of the vertical axis scale Click the [ ] to display the drop-down list. The unit of the vertical axis scale can be selected from the list. Click the " Y-axis scale optimization" button to automatically change the scale to put the waveform within the screen.

2) Moving the position of zero in the vertical axis Click the [ ]/[ ] button to move the position of zero.

3) Resonance point, anti-resonance point cursors The resonance point (red cursor) and anti-resonance point (yellow cursor) are normally detected automatically , but depending on the characteristic, they may not be detected automatically. In such a case, move the cursors to the normal positions by directly writing the resonance point and anti-resonance point frequency.

4.1.1 Introduction

The parameter file edit software (hereafter "PrEdit") is specifically designed to make changes/additions of the models supported by the FR Configurator and additions/deletions/changes of the display parameters. Please acknowledge that the PrEdit is not supported. The PrEdit is installed in the "invsup2e" folder.

4.1.2 Parameter files (ine)

(1) What are parameter files (ine)?

Parameter files are text files which consist of information on the models compatible with the FR Configurator and the parameter information of those models. Installing the FR Configurator into the personal computer also installs the following files into the "files" folder at where the FR Configurator is installed.
