Work-saving set-up
Setting up Omron inverter and servo drives is now easier than
ever, following the release of a new version of the company’s
versatile CX-Drive drive configuration software package.
New features, all of which save time, include automatic recognition
of drive series and type, an oscilloscope function, and facilities
for connecting a single PC running Configurator to multiple drives.
During parameter selection, all parameters are fully described,
and many, including those associated with PID loops and jump
frequency operation, are set with the aid of graphical control
diagrams. Extensive help screens and tool tips are also provided.
In addition to aiding drive setup, Omron’s CX-Drive also provides
comprehensive facilities, status indications and alarms to assist
with commissioning and fault-finding. Drive inputs and outputs
can be monitored in real time, while the oscilloscope function
allows detailed analysis of drive operation, without the need for
additional test equipment CX-Drive enhances connectivity through
Omron’s PLC and motion controllers by supporting DeviceNet,
SCU, Mechatrolink and Profibus connectivity.
Time-saving safety feature
Safety is embedded in the V1000 from the inside out, making it easy for you to integrate
the inverter into your machine system and avoid difficult connections to safety controllers.
Dual safety inputs (acc. To EN954-1 Safety Category 3) will disconnect the motor faster
at the first sign of trouble, while reducing external wiring and contactors.
Convenient on-line tuning
Unlike previous inverters, the V1000
has a smart ‘on-line tuning’ feature
that takes ‘auto-tuning’ a stage further.
This continuous method of tuning
ensures that any temperature
deviation large enough to affect
electrical parameters governing the
motor speed will be adjusted before
any speed variance can occur.
