1 INTRODUCTION
To help the customer during the configuration of the drive, the manual is organized to follow faithfully
the structure of the configurator (OPDExplorer) that allows, according to a logical sequence, to set all
the sizes needed for the proper functioning of the drive.
In particular, each chapter refers to a specific folder of OPDExplorer which includes all the relative
parameters.
Also, at the beginning of each chapter of the manual, is showed the location of the folder in the
OPDExplorer tree, which the chapter refer, and the complete table of sizes of the folder in question.
The control values are divided as follows:
• Parameters
• Connections
• Input logic functions
• Internal values
• Output logic functions
In the tables of the control value, the last column on the right “Scale” shows the internal
representation base of the parameters. This value is important if the parameters have to be read or
written with a serial line or fieldbus and represent the factor which to divide the value stored to
obtain the real value set, as following indicated:
Examples:
MAIN_SUPPLY Æ P87 – Main supply voltage
Value = 400
Scale = 10
Int. rep. = 4000
1.1 PARAMETERS (P)
The parameters are drive configuration values that are displayed as a number within a set range. The
parameters are mostly displayed as percentages, which is especially useful if the motor or drive size
have to be changed in that only the reference values (P61÷P65) have to be modified and the rest
changes automatically. The parameters are split up into free, reserved and TDE MACNO reserved
parameters.
The following rules apply:
Free parameters (black text in OPDExplorer): may be changed without having to open any key, even
when running;
Reserved parameters (blu text
opened the reserved parameter key in P60 or the TDE MACNO reserved parameters key in P99;
TDE MACNO reserved parameters (violet text
standstill after having opened the TDE MACNO reserved parameters key in P99. While the key for
these parameters is closed, they will not be shown on the display.
Take careful note of the reference values for each parameter so that they are set correctly.

1.2 CONNECTIONS (C)
The connections are drive configuration values that are displayed as a whole number in the same
way as a digital selector.

User’s manual
They are split up into free, reserved and TDE MACNO reserved connections, and are changed in the
same way as the parameters.
The internal representation base is always as whole number
1.3 INPUT LOGIC FUNCTIONS (I)
The input logic functions are 32 commands that come from configured terminal board logic inputs,
from the serial line, and from the fieldbus. The meaning of this logical functions depend on the
application, so please refer to specific documentation.
1.4 INTERNAL VALUES (D)
Internal values are 128 variables within the drive that can be shown on the display or via serial on the
supervisor. They are also available from the fieldbus.
The first 64 values are referred to motor control part and are always present. The second 64 values
are application specific.
Pay close attention to the internal representation base of these values as it is important if readings
are made via serial line or fieldbus.
1.5 OUTPUT LOGIC FUNCTIONS (O)
The logic functions are 64, the first 32 display drive status and second 32 are application specific.
All output functions can be assigned to one of the 4 logic outputs.

2 ASYNCHRONOUS PARAMETERS
The “Asyncrhonous Parameters” are used to control the current or speed of a feedback vector
induction motor. The speed and current reference values are generated by the application. See the
application parameters for further information. As an absolute position value is not required for the
sensors (managed with an optional internal electronic board) incremental TTL Encoders and
incremental Sin/Cos Encoders may be used. Absolute sensors such as Resolver can also be used,
as can digital sensors such as Endat or Hiperface if required.
The “Asyncrhonous Parameters” also manages the auto-tuning test, which is crucial if the control is
to adapt perfectly to the motor and to ensure excellent dynamic performance all-round.
2.1 DRIVE AND MOTOR COUPLING

2.1.1.1 DRIVE CURRENT OVERLOAD SELECTION
Four types of drive overload can be set on C56
NB: the choice also changes the rated drive current as shown by the tables in the installation file and
the correct value is always displayed in ampere rms in P53.
The delivered current is also used to calculate the operating temperature reached by the power
component junctions with the drive presumed to be working with standard ventilation at the maximum
ambient temperature permitted.
If this temperature reaches the maximum value permitted for the junctions, the delivered power limit
is restricted to a value that is just over the rated drive current, i.e. the system’s effective thermal
current (see following table).
Now the drive will only overload if the temperature drops below the rated value, which will only occur
after a period of operation at currents below the rated current.
The junction temperature calculation also considers the temperature increase that occurs while
operating at low frequencies (below 2.5 Hz) due to the fact that the current is sinusoidal and thus has
peak values that are higher than the average value. With electrical operating frequencies lower than
2.5Hz, the drive goes into maximum overload for 20-30ms after which the maximum current limit is
reduced by √2 as shown by the following table:
C56 Max. drive current Drive thermal current Limit below 2.5 Hz
0 120% I NOM AZ for 30 seconds 103% I NOM AZ 84% I NOM AZ
1 150% I NOM AZ for 30 seconds 108% I NOM AZ 105% I NOM AZ
2 200% I NOM AZ for 30 seconds 120% I NOM AZ 140% I NOM AZ
3٭
N.B. = the overload time illustrated is calculated with the drive running steady at the rated motor
current. If the average delivered current is lower than the rated motor current, then the overload time
will increase. Thus the overload will be available for a longer or identical time to the ones shown.
N.B. 3٭ = the 200% overload is available until junction temperatures are estimated to be 95% of the
rated value; at the rated value the maximum limit becomes 180%. For repeated work cycles, TDE
MACNO is available to estimate the drive’s actual overload capacity

These parameters are fundamental in that they are the basis of all the motor operating
characteristics: frequency, speed, voltage, current, torque and thermal protection.
P62 and P63 can be read directly on the motor rating plate and P61 can be calculated with the
following formula:

Name Description
SENSOR_SEL C00 - Speed sensor
and, for the specific sensor present, the following parameters.
For the TTL encoder and the incremental sin-cos encoder:
Name Description
ENC_PPR P69 - Number of encoder pulses/revolution
And for the resolver:

2.1.3.1 FINE SETUP MOTOR SENSOR
For some kind of sensor, after the auto tuning procedure is possible set some sensor parameter to
increase the performance.
2.1.3.1.1 FINE SETUP FOR RESOLVER
The fine tuning resolver setup allows to set, with a semiautomatic procedure, any offset
and a multiplicative factor to adjust the signals acquired by the resolver channels in order
to increase system performance.
The procedure begins by setting C68 = 1 and giving a reference speed that the motor can
run at 150 rpm.
The motor have to run for about 30 seconds after stop the test is completed.
Automatically updates the values of P165 and P166 (offset) and P164 (multiplication factor
to adjust the amplitude)
2.1.3.1.2 FINE SETUP FOR INCREMENTAL SIN/COS ENCODER
The fine tuning incremental sin/cos encoder setup allows to set, with a semiautomatic
procedure, any offset and a multiplicative factor to adjust the signals acquired by the
incremental sin/cos encoder channels in order to increase system performance.
The procedure begins by setting C68 = 2 and giving a reference speed that the motor can
do one o two turns .
After stop the test is completed.
Automatically updates the values of P165 and P166 (offset) and P164 (multiplication factor
to adjust the amplitude)

Speed test are useful for measure total system inertia and to set correctly speed regulator gains.
For safety reasons it’s possible to limit maximum speed test with parameter P130, maximum motor
torque with parameter P132 and maximum space admitted for test with P134 revolutions.
The drive doesn’t go over these limits during test execution.
2.1.4.1 START-UP TIME
Start-up time is defined like the time needed to reach maximum speed (P65) with nominal motor
torque.
This autotest is useful to measure total system inertia and frictions.
For enable this test set C53=1 (EN_TEST_SPD = 1 Start Up). In the display appears “Auto”.
Give the run command and automatically the motor starts to move and than return to zero speed.
At this point switch off the run command. Parameter P169 is set with the start-up time in milliseconds,
parameter P136 is set with friction measured in percent of motor nominal torque.
Automatically C53 is cleared to 0 and the test is finished.
If the space admitted is enough the speed profile is trapezoidal:

SPD_RIF=TEST_SPD_ MAX (P132)
T_RIF=TEST_SPD_T_MAX (P130)
T_RIF= - TEST_SPD_T_MAX (P130)

2.1.4.2 STEP RESPONSE
Step response is a common mode to test speed loop stability and dynamic performance.
For enable this test set C53=2 (EN_TEST_SPD = 2 Step). In the display appears “Auto”.
At this point all speed reference are ignored, instead a fixed speed reference is calculated equals to
maximum test torque (P130) divided by speed regulator proportional gain. In this way giving this step
speed reference, the torque requested doesn’t go over maximum torque admitted.
Linear ramps are automatically disabled. Giving the run command, motor starts and try to follow the
reference with its dynamic performance.
Evaluating the speed response it’s possible to understand the system stability and speed loop
bandwidth.
With Real Time Graph is possible to see the motor speed response. Set:
Post Trigger Points = 90% Trigger Type = standard +03 Speed Reference
Trigger level = 1% Trigger slope = ascending
Sample Time = 1
Channels = 2
Channel A = Standard - o03 Reference speed value after ramps
Channel B = Standard - o49 Rotation speed not filtered
Set speed regulator gain and look the step response. Try and repeat until the speed response has
good stability and bandwidth.
Motor runs at constant speed until the run command is on.
Switch off the run command to stop the motor and start a new test.
Step response test is finished only when C53 is manually clear to 0.
2.1.4.2.1 SPEED REGULATOR GAIN SETTING SUGGESTIONS
1. First of all disable integral part setting lead time constant P32 with a big value (>
500ms).
2. Try to find the best proportional gain P31 and filter time constant P33 to obtain a step
response with max overshoot of 20%. It’s important to evaluate also the acoustic and
electrical motor noise.
3. Reduce lead time constant P32 up to minimum value without increase the overshoot

correspond;
o Check that the number of motor poles is written correctly in parameter P67 and the
Encoder used is correctly define as pulses per revolution with parameter P69
Correct operation requires a no-load motor so decouple it from the load.
After setting the drive to STOP and opening the reserved parameter key (P60=95), set C41=1 to
enable the test. To start the test enable RUN command with its digital input.
Once the test has started the motor will rotate in the positive direction at low speed and all Encoder
edges are counted.
During the test, the motor will make a complete revolution at low speed.
Do not worry if this revolution is a little noisy
In the first step is checked if the cyclic sense of motor phases and Encoder channels is the same:
after 1 second parameter P79 is updated with the test result and the drive consequently goes in
alarm A14 or
it starts the second test:
oP79=0 : meaning that is missing at least one Encoder channel, therefore A14 code
0 is triggered
oP79<0 : meaning that Encoder channels are exchanged, therefore A14 code 0 is
triggered
oP79>0 : everything is ok
In the second part is checked the Encoder pulses reading, well known from P69 parameter the
number of edges in a mechanical turn (P69x4, because are counted both two channels edge).
At the end of the test, P79 is updated again with the total edges number:
o|P79- (P69x4)|/(P69x4) < 12,5% : test is successful
otherwise the alarm A15 code 3 is triggered. In the first check if it is correct the
Encoder number of pulses per revolution and the number of motor poles.
oP79 < (P69x4): the real pulses counted are less than expected. Encoder could
have some problems or the motor load is too high. Try to increase the test current
with parameter P114 that is the percentage of rated drive current applied in the test
oP79 > (P69x4) : the real pulses counted are more than expected. Could be some
noise in the Encoder signals.
The test is successful if the drive switch off and does not trigger an alarm. Now disable RUN
command by setting its digital input to 0. The subsequent tests can now be carried out.

Do not worry if this revolution is a little noisy.
In the first step is checked if the cyclic sense of motor phases and Resolver channels is the same:
after 1 second parameter P79 is updated with the pulses number counted (there are 65536 pulses
every turn/Resolver polar couples) and the drive consequently goes in alarm A14 or it starts the
second test:
oP79<0 : meaning that Resolver channels are exchanged, therefore A14 code 0 is
triggered
oP79>0 : everything is ok
In the second part is checked the Resolver channels reading, well known that current test frequency
is 0,5Hz the time needed for read again the same Resolver position is equal to:

2.1.4.6 AUTO-TUNING PROCEDURES
2.1.4.6.1 SENSOR TESTS
This is the first test to be carried out. It is in two parts:
o Check that the direction of rotation of the motor phases and the sensor correspond;
o Check that the number of motor poles is written correctly in parameter P67 and the
speed sensor used is set correctly.
Correct operation requires a no-load motor so decouple it from the load.
After setting the drive to STOP and opening the reserved parameter key (P60=95), set C41=1 to
enable the test. The following setting will appear on the display:
The drive is now ready to start the test. To start reading, enable RUN with its digital input or working
with connection C21 (commands in series)Once the test has started, this setting will appear on the
display:
and the motor will rotate in the positive direction first to ensure the direction matches and will then
rotate again to ensure the motor phases and the sensor are set correctly.
During the test, the motor will make a complete revolution at low speed.
Do not worry if this revolution is a little noisy.
If the drive sets off an alarm during the test, an error has occurred. Check to see which alarm has
been triggered and deal with the problem accordingly:
o If A14 code=1 is enabled, the test current is too low, check if the motor phases are
correctly connected to the drive
18
o If A14 code=0 is enabled, connections U,V,W do not match the internal phases of
the drive. Invert two phases and repeat the test.
o If A15 code=3 is enabled, the values set do not comply with the motor pole and
sensor settings.
At the end of the test, check parameter P79 as it may give some indication as to the problem. See
the “Feedback Option” file for the meaning of P79 as it depends on which sensor is used.
The test is successful if this setting appears on the display:
and the drive does not trigger an alarm.
Now disable RUN by setting its digital input to 0 or clearing C21.
The subsequent tests can now be carried out.

By default (C74=0)the speed is measuring counting the number of pulses in the PWM period.
This produces a poor resolution especially at low speed and the consequent need of signal filtering
(see the related core document, P33 parameter of speed regulator).
Setting C74=1 the speed calculation is done measuring the time between one Encoder pulse to the
other.
This technique has a maximum resolution of 12.5 ns, so the measure can be very accurate.
The Encoder time decode needs Incremental Encoder pulses with duty-cycle of 50%, a correct
pulses time distribution and the cables would be shielded very well

These parameters are extremely important for modelling the motor correctly so that it can be used to

is enabled with connection C42: this test must be carried out with the motor decoupled from the load.
Failure to do so may invalidate the results.
If the tests cannot be carried out for any reason, these values will have to estimated by reading the
motor plate and following these points:
• The magnetizing current value is sometimes shown on the motor plate under I0. In this case,

effective but slightly lower than the rated motor voltage. Then change P73 until d18 displays a

Establish fs by reading the rated slip value, usually in rpm, on the motor plate, then compare it
with the rated speed and multiply everything by the rated motor frequency.
Check P74 by forcing the motor to request a torque current:
- changing the speed reference value brusquely
- applying different loads to the motor
and observing the behaviour of the stator voltage module. If this value is correct, the voltage
should only vary slightly in the transient phase.
These other parameters are not as important and the default values may be left if more reliable data
are unavailable.
This test reads the basic electrical parameters that characterise the induction motor being used so
that it can be modelled according to the rotor magnetic flux. After these values have been
established, the PI regulators in the current and flux loops are self-set .
There are 4 test functions. Each requires a no-load motor, i.e. decoupled from th e load , if they
are to function correctly.
Connection C42 is used to enable these tests. See the table below:

2.1.5.1.1 TEST 1: READING STATOR DROP AND DEAD TIME
COMPENSATION
This test establishes the voltage drop caused by the stator resistor and the IGBT. It also estimates
the signal amplitude required to compensate for the effects of the dead times so that the internal
representation base of the stator voltage and the one actually generated match.
During this reading, the motor remains still in its original position and a range of flux currents are
emitted. By reading the voltages and the correlated voltages the required values can be collected.
This test modifies the following parameters:

2.1.5.1.2 TEST 2: LEARNING THE TOTAL LEAKAGE INDUCTION
DROP REPORTED TO THE STATOR
This test establishes the voltage drop due to the total leakage inductance reported to the stator in
order to calculate the proportional gain of the current loop PI.
During this test, the motor stays practically still in its original position. Flux currents in a range of
values and frequencies are emitted so that by reading the voltages and correlated voltages the
required values can be collected. The motor has a tendency to rotate, but this phenomenon is
managed in such a way that readings are only taken when the speed is equal to zero, otherwise the
results may be unreliable.
Nevertheless it is important that the motor does not rotate at a speed exceeding more than several
tens of revolutions per minute. If it does, stop the test by disabling RUN and lower parameter P129 as
this is the test current used to establish

2.1.5.1.3 READING THE MAGNETIZING CURRENT AND THE
MAGNETIZING CHARACTERISTIC
This test has the dual task of establishing the motor magnetizing current and reading its magnetic
characteristic.
During this test, the motor is rotated at high speed (about 80% of the rated speed) and readings are
taken at a range of voltages. After establishing the magnetizing value, 10 points of the magnetic
characteristic are taken, after which linear interpolation is carried out in order to obtain a curve similar
to the one below.
During this test the motor will rotate at a speed equal to about 80% of the rated value.

2.1.5.1.4 TEST 4: READING THE ROTOR TIME CONSTANT AND
ESTIMATING THE STATOR TIME CONSTANT
This test establishes the rotor time constant from the motor and helps to estimate the stator time
constant by using data from other auto-tuning values.
During the test, the motor is rotated at the same speed as the previous test and then it goes in free
revolution
During the test, the motor rotates at a speed equal to about 80% of the rated speed and is
temporarily left to idle.
The following parameters are modified at the end of the test:

V_REG_TF P82 - Tfi voltage regulator (filter) time constant
I_REG_TI P84 - Tic current regulator lead time constant
I_REG_TF P85 - Tfc current regulator (filter) time constant
By the end of this test, the current and flow regulators will have been completely self-set and made
compatible with the motor connected to the drive.
These readings also help estimate the Maximum motor torque (P41) which is important if the motor
flux has to be considerably weakened.
The speed regulator gains are set with the default values so that the user can set the most suitable
gains for the applications. The speed loop bandwidth depends heavily on the overall load inertia, thus
high frequency values can only be obtained if the motor-load coupling has no elasticity or mechanical
play and if the speed sensor resolution is good enough not to introduce too much noise.

2.2 MOTOR CONTROL
The regulation system consists of a speed regulation loop and a flux or voltage regulation loop
according to drive operation. These loops manage the reference values from the application and
generate reference values for the internal torque and flux current loops.
All the loops are controlled by integral proportional regulators with an error signal filter and work with
normalized signals so that the regulation constants are as independent as possible from the size of
the motor in relation to the drive and from the system mechanics. An additional space loop that
overlaps the speed loop can also be enabled.
23
User’s manual
Regulation controls speed by default; here the application manages the speed reference values, and
the torque request is used as a reference value added to the speed regulator output (feed-forward).
Note that it is a torque control and not a current control, consequently during flux weakening the
control automatically generates the request for the active current needed to obtain the required
torque.

In the standard application, by default (P236=1), the speed reference value passes across a ramp
circuit that graduates its variations before it is used. Parameters P21, P22, P23 and P24 can be used
to establish independent acceleration and deceleration slopes in both directions of movement,
establishing the time required to pass from 0 to 100% in seconds. In particular (see diagram):
P21 sets the time the reference value requires to accelerate from 0 to +100%
P22 sets the time the reference value requires to decelerate from 100% to 0%
P23 sets the time the reference value requires to accelerate from 0% to -100%
P24 sets the time the reference value requires to decelerate from -100% to 0%
Setting sensitivity is 10 msec and the time must be between 0.01 and 199.99 seconds.
The default values are the same for all the parameters and are equal to 10 sec.
In the standard application, ramps can be enabled via a configurable logic input (I22) which works
parallel to connection P236: I22=H is the same as setting P236=1. This input ensures maximum
flexibility in ramp use in that the ramps are enabled only when required.
In the other application please refer to the specific documentation in order to enable the ramps
The ramp may also be rounded in the starting and finishing phases by setting C27=1 via the rounding
time set in seconds in P25 with resolution 0.1 sec and a range from 1 to 199.9 sec. (default 10 sec).

2.2.1.1 FREQUENCY JUMPS TO AVOID RESONANCES
Using the parameters P179, P180, P181 and P182 it is possible to exclude, as working frequencies, all
those frequencies falling within the two bands defined between P179 - P77 and P78 – P182, where
P179, P77, P78 and P182 are expressed as % of the maximum working frequency (see diagram)
Wherever exclusion bands are pre-set the drive behaves in the following way:
If the set frequency reference falls within the exclusion band it is maintained at the lower value of the
band, if the set value is less than the mid band value, while if the value is greater than the mid band
value it assumes the upper value.
25
User’s manual
In a transitional phase however the system passes through all of the band’s frequencies (ramp). The
use or otherwise of the exclusion bands requires the setting of the corresponding connection C38:
Band 1 (P179-P180) C81=0 (Default) not excluded, C81=1 excluded
Band 2 (P181-P182) C81<2 not excluded, C81=2 excluded
For example if the working fmax = 50Hz and the plant presents two resonance frequencies which are
quite clear at 45Hz and 35Hz the frequencies between 43 - 47 Hz and 33 - 37 Hz could be excluded

2.2.2.1 MANAGING SPEED REFERENCE VALUES
The application generates two speed reference values:
o One , sysSpeedReference, is a percentage of the maximum speed (set in parameter P65)
displayed in internal value d33 and on monitor o41.
o The other, sysSpeedRefPulses is electrical pulses for a period of PWM. This particular
reference is used so as not to be lose any pulses if the frequency input is used. Internal
normalization is done with 65536 pulses per mechanical revolution.
After these two reference values have been processed they are added together in order to obtain the
total speed reference value.
2.2.2.2 INVERTING AND LIMITING SPEED REFERENCE VALUES
In the standard application, logic function I12 “Speed reference value inversion”, which is assigned
to an input (the default is input 6), or connection P237 are used to invert the reference value
according to the following logic (OR-exclusive):
I12 = 0 P237 = 0 Reference value not inverted (default values)
I12 = 1 P237 = 0 Reference value inverted
I12 = 0 P237 = 1 Reference value inverted
I12 = 1 P237 = 1 Reference value not inverted
The reference value is inverted before the ramp thus, if the ramp is not disabled, the direction of
rotation changes gradually (default C36=0 and I12=0).
There is another chance, to invert positive speed rotation setting C76=1.
Enabling this function, with the same speed reference and speed measured, the motor rotates in
reverse direction.
Parameters P18 and P19 are used to limit the total reference value within a range set between these
two values; P18 is the maximum limit (positive speed) and P19 is the minimum limit (negative speed).
These two parameters may be set at a range from
operation within the 2 quadrants or within just one quadrant.
The following settings are provided by way of example:
The speed regulator filter can be changed by using a 2nd order one.
To enable this function set C69=1. Parameter P33 will always set the filter time constant in
milliseconds, and thus its natural pulsation, given that internal damping is always set to 0.8 so that
the filter is quick to respond but does not overshoot.
Note that enabling a 2nd order filter means reducing the margin of system stability, hence the filter
time constant value must be thought through carefully before setting so as not to create instability:

By taking as reference the 1st order filter time constant tolerated by the system, the 2

has to be set to double frequency (half time) so that it has the same phase margin.
The effects of the 2nd order filter will be better than the 1st order filter only when the frequency is
double that of the 2nd order filter.
Example: if a 1st order filter with a time constant P33=0.8 ms passes to a 2nd order filter, P33=0.4
ms has to be set to have the same stability margin.
2.2.2.4 VARIABLE SPEED REGULATOR GAINS
Speed regulator gains can be varied according to actual speed: P45 is the proportional gain at zero
speed, P46 is the initial lead time constant and P34 is the initial filter time constant. Setting P44 (a
percentage of the maximum speed) with the end variation gain speed establishes a linear gain
variation that ranges from the initial values (P45,P46 and P34) to the final values in P31,P32,P33.
Setting P44=0.0 disables this function so that the gains set in P31, P32 and P33 are used.

2.2.2.5 TORQUE FEED-FORWARD ON SPEED REFERENCE
It’s possible to enable the Torque feed-forward on speed reference using C72 connection:
It’ possible to estimate the torque reference needing for the speed variation requested with the speed
reference derivative using a II° order filter (time constant in P168 in ms) and taking account of total
inertia (setting parameter P169 Startup time).

The Startup time is the time necessary for motor and load to reach the maximum speed (set in P65)
with the nominal motor torque. This data has to be set in milliseconds in parameter P169.
It’s useful to set some milliseconds of filter (P168) on order to avoid too much noise on torque
reference for the time derivative.
When it’s enabled this function the torque reference produced is added to the speed regulator output.
The torque feed-forward can be very useful in the servo-drive application when the target is to follow
very promptly the speed reference, because it increases the bandwidth without using high gains on
speed regulator.
Note1: torque feed-forward isn’t appropriate in load variable inertia applications.
The positive and negative torque limits are chosen to restrict the following values:
o P42 / P43 = maximum torque, in both directions according to rated torque;
o Maximum torque linked to maximum motor torque according to the rated torque
(parameter P41);
o Maximum torque set by the current limit;
o Maximum torque limit reference value generated by the application: sysMaxTorque
(symmetrical), sysMaxPositiveTorque and sysMaxNegativeTorque (asymmetrical)
o Maximum torque limited by the regulator output in order to back up the bus voltage
should the mains fail;
o Maximum torque controlled in the startup phase with the motor magnetized;
o Maximum torque limited in the controlled braking phase (as long as this function is
enabled by setting C47=1).

2.2.3.2 MAXIMUM MOTOR TORQUE LIMIT
The induction motor has a maximum torque that depends on its construction characteristics.
The graph below illustrates the progress of a torque curve according to speed with the motor
powered by a constant frequency (Ns). The same graph can also be referred to when an inverter is
used, reading it as torque delivered according to slip, i.e. the difference between the rotation speed of
the electrical values and the rotor (Ns – N in the graph).

The graph illustrates how the delivered torque increases according to slip up to a certain point

the torque decreases even when the current is increased.

It is proved that the maximum motor torque decreases during flux weakening in proportion to the
square of the φ/φnom ratio. Thus the motor has three working areas:
Constant torque: the maximum torque is available up to the rated speed (as long as the
current to deliver it is available);
Constant power: over the rated speed, flux is reduced proportionally to speed, the
available torque also drops in proportion to speed, the power delivered is constant;
Maximum torque: after reaching the maximum torque, which decreases with the square
of the speed, the available torque will start to drop with the square of the speed and the
power delivered will decrease in proportion to the speed.

To ensure regulation stability, P41 must be set with the Maximum torque divided by Rated motor

The drive is fitted with a maximum current limiting circuit that cuts in if exceeded, restricting the
maximum current delivered to the lowest value from among parameter P40, the value calculated by
the drive thermal image circuit, and the motor thermal protection circuit.
P40 is used to programme the maximum current limit delivered by the drive from 0% to the maximum

Current regulators generate the voltage reference values required to ensure torque and flux currents
that are equal to their reference values.
The current signals processed by these regulators are expressed according to the maximum drive
current, which means that they are affected by the ratio between the rated motor current and the
rated drive current (P61). To ensure good control, this ratio should not drop below 35 - 40% i.e. Do
not use a drive that is more than two and a half times larger than the motor, nor a motor that is more
than one and a half times larger than the drive.
The flux current is displayed as a percentage of the rated motor current in d16, while the torque
current is displayed as a percentage of the rated motor current in d15. The constants of these
regulators are established in engineering units by parameters P83, proportional gain Kp; P84, time in
ms of the lead time constant Ta equal to the integral regulator time constant multiplied by the gain
(Ta = Ti*Kp); and P85, filter constant in ms.
Parameters P83 and P84 cannot be changed directly because they are considered to be
perfectly calculated by the auto-tuning. P83 can only be changed by accessing TDE MACNO

When operating with Constant Power the regulator generates a request for the flux current required
to ensure the stator voltage module is the same as the voltage reference value and thus to weaken
the flux gradually as the speed increases.
The active voltage reference value (displayed in d09) is always the smallest of the three values,
which are all normalized in relation to the rated motor voltage (P62):
o Parameter P64 “Maximum operating voltage” multiplied by coefficient P36;
o A term linked to the direct bus voltage with a margin set with P125 (default 96%), because
the maximum stator voltage that can be delivered may not exceed the direct voltage divided
by √2;
A term linked to the estimated stator voltage to be applied during flux weakening based on the
required current so that there is a margin with regard to the maximum voltage available and thus to
be better equipped to deal with variations in the required torque

The flux current is normalized in relation to the magnetizing current (P73), the rotor flux is normalized
in relation to the rated flux and is displayed as a percentage in d27. The stator voltage module is
normalized in relation to the rated motor voltage (P62) and is displayed as a percentage in d18 and
as a value in Volt rms in d17
The constants of this regulator are established in engineering units by parameters P80, proportional
gain Kp; P81, time in ms of the lead time constant Ta equal to the integral regulator time constant
multiplied by the gain (Ta = Ti*Kp); and P82, filter constant in ms.
Parameters P80 and P81 cannot be changed directly because they are considered to be
perfectly calculated by the auto-tuning.
They can only be changed by accessing TDE MACNO reserved parameter P127 “Multiplication
coefficient Kp and Ta flux loop”
The voltage/flux regulator limit is normally set at
± rated motor current so that the total flux may be
changed quickly during the transient state.
If the estimated flux drops below 5% of the rated flux, the lower voltage regulator limit is brought to a
value that will generate a flux of at least 4%. This is done so as not to lose control in a zone where
the flux has been weakened widely.
2.2.5.1 STARTUP WITH A MOTOR MAGNETIZED
C38 provides 3 different ways for starting up the motor:
C38=0
C38=1 Enable independent flux
C38=2 Machine always magnetized

operation
When the machine is magnetized, it means that the motor is powered and th at a cu rrent equal
to the magnetizing current is being delivered. Thus special care must be taken especially
when C38
≠ 0 in that a voltage ≠ 0 may be created on terminals U,V,W without enabling the
When RUN is enabled, the machine is magnetized with the maximum
delivered torque at zero for a time equal to P29. The flux is then checked to
see whether it exceeds the minimum (P52). If it does, the torque is “freed”, if it
does not the drive triggers alarm A2 “Machine not magnetized”.
In this case, logic input (I15) is used to magnetize the machine. After setting
I15=H (configuring one of the logic inputs as required) the machine is
magnetized with the maximum delivered torque at zero for a time equal to P29.
The flux is then checked to see whether it exceeds the minimum (P52). If it
does, the torque is “freed”; the display shows that the machine has been
magnetized and the next time the RUN command is enabled, the motor will
start up straight away. If the flux does not exceed the minimum, the drive
triggers alarm A2 “Machine not magnetized”
The machine is always magnetized. If the flux drops below the minimum value
(P52) the drive triggers alarm A2.
If the drive is ready, the motor will start up as soon as the Run command is
enabled.

2.2.5.2 WAIT FOR MOTOR DEMAGNETIZING
When the drive is switched off it is dangerous to switch on immediately, due to the unknown magnetic
flux position that could produce a motor over–current. The only chance it’s to wait the time needed for
the magnetic flux to reduce itself with its time constant that depend on the motor type and can vary
from few milliseconds to hundreds of milliseconds.
For this reason has been introduced the parameter P28 that set the wait time after power switch off
after that, it’s possible to switch on the power another time: also if the user gives the RUN command
during this wait time, the drive waits to complete it before enabling another time the power.
Parameter P28 is defined in time units of 100us so the default value 10000 correspond to 1 second.

The bridge rectifier build in the drive may be uncontrolled (diode) or semi-controlled (up to OPEN 40
it is uncontrolled). If the diode bridge is implemented, the power soft start function acts bypassing a
soft start resistor (in series with the output of the power bridge), after the DC Bus Voltage has
charged; otherwise the same function unblocks the semi-controlled input power bridgepermitting the
gradual charge of the DC Bus voltage and supplying the drive feeding for the following work.
N.B: It is fundamental to correctly set up the connection C45 build in Power Bridge : 0=
uncontrolled (diode) ; 1 = semi-controlled
The function becomes active if the connection C37=1 and the presence of mains supply voltage
becomes noticed, with the following logic:
Mains supply presence: in case the presence of alternated mains supply voltage becomes noticed
once (at soft start) with the logic power input MAINS_OFF=H, from that moment the control refers
only to the MAINS_OFF to check the mains presence. Otherwise, in the case of drive feeding with a
continuous direct voltage on the DC Bus, it is possible to begin the soft start, even if the measured
voltage on the DC Bus exceeds the indicated value in P97.
Mains break out: the mains break becomes noticed either when the MAINS_OFF signal is
monitored (if this went to the high logic level at least one time during the soft start) either monitoring
directly the DC Bus voltage with minimum threshold setup in P97.
The function of “Soft start enable” may be assigned to one of the logic input thus to enable or disable
the soft start through an external contact.
The power fault alarm (power fault A03), that checks drive over current, insert the soft start limiting
current.
The soft start follows the following criteria

0 L X OFF L

From default PR.ON=1 and C37=1 thus connecting the drive to the mains supply, the power is
enable immediately with the soft charging of the capacitors.
The soft start charge of the intermediate circuit capacitors lasts a preset time set in P154, after this
time the voltage level is checked to verify the voltage level reached: if this is below the minimum
(P97), the soft start alarm starts.
The drive is not enabled to switch on if soft start function has not ended successfully.

2.3.1.2.1 CONTINUING TO WORK (C34=0; DEFAULT)
This operating procedure is adapted to those applications in which it is fundamental to have
unchanged working conditions in each situation. Setting C34=0 the drive, even if the mains supply
voltage is no longer available, continues to work as though nothing has been modified over the
control, pulling the energy from the present capacitor to the inner drive. This way making the
intermediate voltage of the DC Bus will begin to go down depending on the applied load; when it
reaches the minimum tolerated value (in parameter P106) the drive goes into alarm A10 of minimum
voltage and leaves to go to the motor in free evolution.
Therefore, this function will allow exceeding short-term mains break out (tenths/hundredths of
milliseconds on the basis of the applied load) without changing the motor operation in any way.

2.3.1.2.2 RECOVERY OF KINETIC ENERGY (C34=1)
This operating procedure is adapted to those applications in which it is temporarily possible to reduce
the speed of rotation to confront the mains break. This function particularly adapts in the case of
fewer applied motors and with high energy.
The qualification of such a function is obtained setting C34=1.
During the mains break out, the voltage control of the DC Bus is achieved using a proportional
regulator, with fixed proportional gain set in P86 (default=3.5), that controls the DC Bus voltage d24,
compare it with the threshold in P98 (default=600V) and functions on the torque limits d30 of the
motor that, in time, will slow down to work in recovery. Such regulation, when qualified (C34=1), at
mains break out (o.L.12=H) or if the DC Bus voltage goes below the threshold set in P97 (425V),
replaces the normal regulation (o.L.13=H) and is excluded when mains supply is on.

motor to resume when the mains returns.
The qualification of such a function is obtained setting C34=2.
When there is a mains break or if the voltage of the Bus goes below the threshold set in P97r (425
V), the drive is immediately switched off, the motor rotates in free evolution and the Bus capacitors
slowly discharges. If the mains returns in a few seconds, a fast recovery of the motor is carried out in
a way in which the working regulation of the machine is resumed.

emergency brake in case of mains breaks.
Under this circumstance, the linear ramps becomes qualified and the ramp time is imposed with the
parameter P30. When the minimum speed is reached, alarm A10 of minimum voltage starts and the

2.3.1.3 BRAKING MANAGEMENT
The drive is in a position to work on four quadrants, therefore is also in a position to manage the
motor recovery Energy. There are three different, possible controls:
2.3.1.3.1 RECOVERY MAINS ENERGY
To be able to restore the kinetic Energy into the mains, it is necessary to use another OPEN drive ,
specifically the AC/DC Active Front End (AFE). A Power Factor Controller deals with the position to
have a power factor close to unity.Specific documentation is sent back from specific details. This
solution is adapted to those applications in which the additional cost justifies another drive with a lot
of energy that is recovered in the mains or for particular thermal dissipation problems in the use of a
braking resistor.

There is a possibility to connect more than one drive to the DC Bus, with the advantage of energy
exchange between drives in case of contemporary movements and only one energy exchange with
the mains.

2.3.1.3.2 BRAKING WITH DC BUS CONTROL (C47=1)
A further possibility of recovery control of kinetic energy exists: if the outer braking resistance is not
present (or is not working properly), it is possible to enable (setting C47=1) the braking with DC Bus
control. This function, when the Bus voltage reaches the threshold set in P123, limits the maximum
admitted regenerated torque, slowing down the motor. In practice, the motor will slow down in
minimum time thus the over voltage alarm does not start.
This function is not active by default (C47=0) in a way to leave the intervention of the braking circuit.

2.3.1.3.3 KINETIC ENERGY DISSIPATION ON BREAKING
RESISTANCE
The standard solution for the OPEN drive is the dissipation of kinetic Energy on braking resistor. All
the OPEN drives are equipped with an eternal braking circuit, while the braking resistor must be
connected externally, with the appropriate precautions.
With this solution, the Bus’ maximum level of voltage becomes limited through a power device that
connects in parallel the resistor with the DC Bus capacitors, if the voltage exceeds the threshold
value in P108, the drive keeps it inserted until the voltage goes below the value of P109; in such a
way, the energy that the motor transfers onto the DC Bus during the braking, is dissipated from the
resistor.
This solution guarantees good dynamic behavior also in braking mode.
In the follow figure it’s shown the Bus voltage and the speed during a dissipation on breaking
resistance.

A maximum voltage limit allowed exists for the DC Bus voltage. This is checked by the software
(threshold P107), and by the hardware circuitry: in case the voltage exceeds this level, the drive will
immediately go into an over voltage alarm A11 to protect the internal capacitors.
In case of A11 alarm condition starts, verify the correct dimensioning of the braking resistor power.
Refer to the installation manual for the correct dimensioning of the outer braking resistor.

2.3.2.1 MOTOR THERMAL PROTECTION
.
Parameters P70 (thermal current as a % of the rated motor current), P71 (motor thermal constant in
seconds) and the current delivered by the drive are used to calculate the presumed operating
temperature of the motor considering an ambient temperature equal to the permitted maximum; the
losses are evaluated with the square of the absorbed current and filtered with the motor thermal
constant. When this value exceeds the maximum thermal current set in P70 (value proportional to the
square of this current) the thermal protection cuts in, enabling logic output o.L.1 and alarm A06. The
action taken may be programmed via connection C32 and by enabling alarm A06:
If A06 is disabled, no action will be taken.
If A06 is enabled, action will depend on C32:
• C32 = 0 (default value) the thermal alarm will cut in and reduce the current limit to match
the motor thermal current.
42
• C32 = 1 the thermal alarm cuts in and stops the drive immediately.
[%]
Internal value d28 and analog output 28 display a second-by-second reading of the motor thermal
current as a percentage of the rated motor current. When 100% is reached, the motor thermal switch
cuts in.
P96 can be set with an alarm threshold which, when breached, commutes logic output o.L.14 to a
high level indicating the approximation to the motor thermal limit.
The maximum motor thermal current depends on the operating frequency, provided that the motor
does not have assisted ventilation regardless of its revolutions.
Four permitted thermal current curves are used to reduce the current in accordance with motor
operating frequency (see diagram); the required curve is chosen with Connection C33 as per the

2.4.1 AUTOMATIC SETTING OF WORKING VOLTAGE/FREQUENCY
“V/f control” manages the an asynchronous motor without feedback.
This type of control has a good dynamic performance also in flux weakening area (4-5 times base
frequency) and it’s able to start the motor also with high load (2 times the nominal motor torque), but
44
it’s no useful in that application where it’s necessary to produce torque in steady state at frequency
below 1Hz (in this case we recommend to use a motor with feedback and a Vector control).
To enable the voltage-frequency control set C80=characteristic
The most easier way to set the voltage-frequency characteristic is to use the automatic procedure.
First of all set the maximum motor voltage (P64) and the maximum working speed (P65) and then set
C88=1 .
Automatically the drive set the voltage-frequency characteristic in two possible way:
1. Linear way :
In this case, none characteristic points are set (P174-P175-P176-P177=0) and the maximum
operating voltage P64 is set:
2. Characteristic FLUX WEAKENING AREA:
3.
When the maximum motor frequency is greater than nominal frequency automatically is set
one characteristic point into nominal knee:
P175= 100%
2.4.2 MANUAL SETTING OF WORKING VOLTAGE/FREQUENCY
CHARACTERISTIC
Using the parameters P175 , P176 , P177 and P178 it is possible to define a three-section working
curve by points (so as to be better able to adjust to the desired characteristics).
45
User’s manual
Points P176 and P178 define the frequency percentage with reference to the maximum working
frequency while points P175 and P177 define the percentage voltage with reference to the maximum
working voltage (P64).
The following curve should clarify the explanation.
"TYPICAL CURVE WITH QUADRATIC TORQUE LOAD"
If a number of points which is less than two is sufficient to define the curve just program at 0 the
frequencies of the points which are not used (P176 and/or P178), so that they will not be considered
in the interpolation.
There are some limitations on setting the characteristic:
- Frequencies (P176 and P178) must be in rising order and the distance between two
adjacent points must be greater than 5%
- Corresponding voltages (P175 and P177) must be in rising order.
If this limitations are not respected the system doesn’t take in account the point whose component
was set wrongly and it is cleared to 0. Every time one of this parameters (from P175 to P178) is
changed, it is better to verify if the system has accepted the new value.
A linear type Voltage-Frequency characteristic is provided for the default for which
P175=P176=P177=P178=0.
STANDARD CURVE FOR A MOTOR WORKING IN CONSTANT TORQUE IN ALL ITS
CHARACTERISTICS
46
As an example we calculate the settings of the parameters in the case of a motor with a rated voltage
of 380 Volts and a frequency of 50 Hz, which we want to work at full flux up to 50 Hz and a constant
voltage from 50 Hz to 75 Hz.
Having traced the desired voltage-frequency we see that to program it is sufficient to use only one
section point (see diagram).
From the maximum speed frequency desired (P65) and from the maximum working voltage (P64) we
can calculate the P177 and P178 values with reference to the maximum values, while P175 and
P176 will remain at 0.

2.4.3 LOAD EFFECT COMPENSATION
2.4.3.1 VOLTAGE STATOR DROP COMPENSATION (START UP
UNDER LOAD)
Using P36 parameter it is possible to increase the voltage value at low frequencies so as to
compensate for the drop due to the stator resistance and so as to be able to have current and the
refore torque even in the start up phase; this is necessary if the motors starts up under load. The
value which can be set refers to the drop voltage on the Stator Resistor (P66) and can be adjusted
from 0 up to a maximum of 400.0%. Particular care must be taken in setting the P172 value as it
determines the current values fed at low speed: a value too low for P30 results in limiting the torque
of the motor, while a value too high results in feeding high currents at low speed, whatever the load
condition is.
In the start up under load it is useful to introduce a waiting time on the common ‘converter running so
that the motor can magnetize itself, so that it has from the outset the torque expected available. The
P29 parameter makes it possible to quantify this wait time in milliseconds, in which the system is in an
on-line state, but the frequency reference is forcibly held at 0. The most suitable value for P29 should
be chosen according to the rating of the motor and the load conditions, but in any case should be
from a minimum of 400ms for motors of 7.5 KW up to 1s for motors of 55KW.
2.4.3.2 SLIP COMPENSATION
By using parameter P170 it is possible to partly compensate for the motor’s fall in speed when it takes
up the load; the adjustment is in fact that regulation of motor controls stator frequency and does not
control the real speed.
This compensation is obtained by increasing the motor’s working frequency by a quantity which is
proportional to the percentage working torque multiplied by the percentage value set in P170 , in
relation to the motor’s rated frequency.
The value to be set depends both on the motor’s rating and poles, in any case it can in general terms
vary from 4% for a 7.5 KW motor to 1,8 - 2.0% for 45 KW motors. In default the compensation is
excluded P170 = 0.

2.4.4 PARTICULAR CONTROL FUNCTIONS
2.4.4.1 MOTOR FLYING RESTART
Since the driver has a maximum current limit it can always be started running with no problems even
if the motor is already moving, for example, by inertia or dragged by part of the load. In that event, on
starting up, given that normally the frequency reference starts from values close to zero to gradually
rise with the ramp times to the working value, the motor is first subjected to a sudden deceleration,
within the limit, to then hook onto the reference and follow it with the ramp; this may be undesirable
from a mechanical standpoint, and the process could also trigger the overvoltage alarm for
converters which do not have a braking device. To avoid this it is possible to suitably program
connection C84 , “Enable motor flying restart“, which makes it possible to identify the speed of
rotation of the motor, stressing it as little as possible, and to position the output reference from the
ramp at a value corresponding to that rotation so as to start from that reference to then go on to
working values. This motor search function is primarily in one direction and thus needs to know in
advance the direction of rotation of the motor, positive frequency or negative frequency, which must
be programmed in C84 ; if the selection is wrong the motor is first braked to about zero speed to then
follow the reference to go to working speed (as if the search function had not been used). If there is a
passive load and the inertia keeps the motor in rotation, it’s possible to select a search dependently
upon the sign of enabled frequency reference (C84=3-4).
There are two different values for C84 to enable this kind of search, the only difference is for manage
the case in which the frequency reference was zero: in this particular situation with C84=3 the system
searches for positive frequency, while with C84=4 the search will be made for negative frequency.
The C50 connection has five programming values which are selected as indicated below :
o C84=0 flying restart doesn’t enabled
o C84=1 flying restart managed with positive frequency quadrant search
o C84=2 flying restart managed with negative frequency quadrant search
o C84=3 flying restart managed dependently upon the sign of enabled frequency
reference (like C84=1 for 0)
o C84=4 flying restart managed dependently upon the sign of enabled frequency
reference (like C84=2 for 0)
The start frequency in motor flying restart can be set in parameter P184 (default 100%) in percentage
of maximum frequency. This parameter can help the search algorithm limiting the range of frequency.
With parameter P185 it’s possible to set the minimum target frequency in order to inject an active
current also if the motor is stopped.
If the maximum frequency is greater than 250% of nominal motor frequency could be some problems
in the motor flying restart because it’s difficult to inject the active current with a slip so high. In that
case the only possibility is to reduce the start search frequency (with P184) on condition that really
the motor cannot run more quickly.
If it’s enabled the motor flying restart, the power is switch-on with the motor standstill and
there is low load, it’s possible to have a transient initial state in which the motor starts
running in the searching sense
If the flying restart doesn’t work correctly it’s possible to increase the reserved parameter P191
(default value 5%) for increase the admitted search window .
In default the flying restart isn’t managed ( C84=0 )
.

It’s possible to enable separately all references using connections or logic input functions.
For speed and torque references the active reference is the sum of all enabled references, for torque
limit prevails the more constrain active reference, between the sum of analog and the Fieldbus
references
There can be up to 3 differential analog inputs (A.I.1
÷ A.I.3) ± 10V which, after being digitally
converted with a resolution of 14 bits, can be:
o conditioned by digital offset and a multiplicative coefficient
o enabled independently through configurable logic inputs or connections
o configured as meaning through the corresponding connection (P203÷P205)
o added together for the references with the same configuration
For example in the case of A.I.1, the result of the conditioning is given by the following equation:
REF1= ((A.I.1/10)*P1) + P2
By selecting a suitable correction factor and offset the most varied linear relationships can be
obtained between the input signal and the reference generated, as exemplified below.

For example if P02=100 offset = 100/16383 = 0.61%

As said above, the enabling of each analog input is independent and can be set permanently by
using the corresponding connection or can be controlled by a logic input after it has been suitably
configured.
For example to enable input A.I.1 the connection P200 or the input logic function I03 can be used,
with the default allocated to logic input 3.
The connections P203
÷and P205 are used to separately configure the three analog inputs available:
C203 ÷ C205 Description
0 Speed ref.
1 Torque ref.
2 Torque limit ref.
3 Set point PID
4 Feedback PID
5 Manual set point PID
Several inputs can be configured to the same meaning so that the corresponding references, if
enabled, will be added together.
Note: using the appropriate multiplicative coefficient for each reference it is therefore possible to
execute the subtraction of two signals.
In the case of the torque limit, if there is no analog input configured to the given meaning and
enabled, the reference is automatically put at the maximum that can be represented, i.e. 400%. In
internal quantities d32 it is possible to view the torque limit imposed by the application.
In the case of the torque reference there is a first order filter with time constant that can be set in
milliseconds in parameter P206. In the internal quantity d10 the torque reference can be viewed as
set by the application

3.1.2.1 DIGITAL SPEED REFERENCE (JOG)
The value programmed in parameter P211 can be used as digital speed reference either by
activating the logic function “Enable Jog” I.05 assigned to an input (default input L.I.5) or with the
connection P212=1. The resolution is 1/10000 of the maximum working speed.
3.1.2.2 DIGITAL POTENTIOMETER SPEED REFERENCE
A function that makes it possible to obtain a terminal board adjustable speed reference through the
use of two logic inputs to which are assigned the input functions digital potentiometer up I09”
(ID_UP_POTD) and “Digital potentiometer down I10” (ID_DN_POTD) .
The reference is obtained by increasing or decreasing an internal counter with the ID_UP_POTD and
ID_DN_POTD functions respectively.
The speed of increase or decrease set by parameter P217 (acceleration time of the digital
potentiometer) which sets how many seconds the reference takes to go from 0 to 100%, keeping the
ID_UP_POTD active (this times is the same as to go from 100.0% to 0.0% by holding ID_DN_POTD
active). If ID_UP_POTD are ID_DN_POTD are activated at the same time the reference remains still.
The movement of the reference is only enabled when the converter is in RUN.
The functioning is summarised in the following table :

3.1.3.1 SPEED FREQUENCY REFERENCE MANAGEMENT
This speed reference in pulses can be provided in 4 different ways (alternatives to each other), that
can be selected by means of connection C09.
C09 Description Mode of working

Analogic
1 Digital encoder 4 track frequency reference (default)
2 Digital f/s Frequency reference (freq. and up/down) counting all edges
3 Digital f/s 1 edge Frequency reference (freq. and up/down) counting one edge
Analog reference ±10V (optional)
To be used Speed reference in pulses must be enabled either by activating the function “ Enable
reference in frequency I19 “assigned an input or by means of connection P223=1 .
The incremental position reference is always enabled and it’s possible to add an offset depending on
analog and digital speed reference enable.
3.1.3.2 DIGITAL FREQUENCY REFERENCE
About the digital frequency reference, there are two working modes can be selected with C09:
o Setting C09 = 1 a reference can be provided with an encoder signal with 4 tracks of a
maximum range varying between 5V and 24V and a maximum frequency of 300KHz.
o Setting C09 = 2 a speed reference can be provided with an frequency signal with a
maximum range varying between 5V and 24V and a maximum frequency of 300KHz.
(setting C09 =3 will be manage the same input, but internally will be count only rising edge,
this option is useful only if it is used the time decode)
The number N of impulses/revolution for the reference is set by connection C220:
There are the parameters P221 and P222 that permit specification of the ratio between the reference
speed and input frequency as a Numerator/Denominator ratio.
In general terms, therefore, if you want the speed of rotation of the rotor to be X rpm, the relationship
to use to determine the input frequency is the following:
and vice versa
Let us now look at a few examples of cascade activation (MASTER SLAVE) with frequency input
according to a standard encoder.
By a MASTER drive the simulated encoder signals A,/A,B,/B are picked up to be taken to the
frequency input of the SLAVE. By means of parameters P221 and P222 the slipping between the
two is programmed.
N° of pulses/revolution = 512 N° of pulses/revolution = 512

To obtain good performance at low speed it is necessary to select an encoder resolution for the
master that sufficiently high.
More precisely, the signal coming from the encoder can be adapted according to the report
P221/P222 and, if necessary, one of the analog input
3.1.3.3 FREQUENCY SPEED REFERENCE MANAGEMENT
The speed reference in pulses is very accurate (no pulses is lost) but for its nature it has an irregular
shape because are counted the edges every sampling period (TPWM) and this produce a speed
reference with many noise. Also if the frequency input is constant, between a PWM period and
another could be counted a variable number of pulses,
reference, expecially when the frequency input decreases.
For not use a big filter with frequency reference it’s possible to use its time decode that has a good
resolution. It is measured the time between various edges of frequency input with resolution of 25ns,
reaching a percentage resolution not less than 1/8000 (13 bit) working to 5KHz of PWM (increasing
PWM resolution decreases linearly).
There are 3 different ways to manage frequency speed reference, selectable with parameter
P224 (FRQ_REF_SEL):

This is the most complete and powerful mode, which makes use of both references:
the frequency speed reference decoded in time ("sysSpeedPercReference”) has very good

the pulses speed reference (“sysSpeedRefPulses "), going to impose a reference to the
integral part of the speed regulator, will not miss pulses, ensuring maximum precision in the

NB: pay particular attention to the fact that it is absolutely not possible to assign the same
logic function to two different logic inputs: after changing the connection value that sets a
determined input, check that the value has been accepted, if not check that another has not
already been allocated to that input. In order to disable a logic input it’s necessary to assign
to it the logic function -1 : this is the only value that can be assigned to more than one inputs.
For example, to assign a specific logic function to logic input 1 you must first write the desired logic
number for connection I01 :
I01 = 14 Æ logic input 1 can be used to enable Fieldbus references
The logic functions that have been configured become active ( H ) when the input level is at high
status (20V < V < 28V), and there is a 2.2ms hardware filter. With the connection C79 it’s possible to
enable the active logic low state for a particular digital input, it’s necessary to sum 2 to the power of
ordinal input number:
30
For example to set digital inputs I0 and I3 to active low state, set:
922C79
=+=
The functions that have not been assigned assume default value ; for example, if the function
“external enable“ is not assigned it becomes, as default, “active ( H )” so the converter is as if there
were no assent from the field
3.1.4.1 INPUT LOGIC FUNCTIONS SET IN OTHER WAYS
In reality the input logic functions can also be set by serial connection and by fieldbus, with the
following logic:
oI00 Run : stands alone, it has to be confirmed by terminal board inputs, by the serial
and by the fieldbus, though in the case of the latter the default is active and
so, if unaltered, controls only the terminal board input.
o I01
÷ I31: is the parallel of the corresponding functions that can be set at the terminal
board, the serial or the fieldbus

corresponding to the chosen logic function but with the value denied: for example, if you want to
associate the function “ end of ramp ” to logic output 1 active low, you have to program connection

There can be a maximum of two analog outputs, VOUTA and VOUTB
To each of the two outputs can be associated an internally regulated variables selected from the list
here below; the allocation is made by programming the connection corresponding to the output
concerned, C15 for VOUTA and C16 for VOUTB, with the number given in the table below
corresponding to the relative quantities. By means of the parameters P57 (for VOUTA) and P58 (for
VOUTB) it is also possible to set the percentage of the variables selected to correspond to the
maximum output voltage (default values are P57=P58=200% so 10V in output correspond to 200% of
variable selected). The default for VOUTA is a signal proportional to the current supplied by converter
(C15=11), in VOUTB the signal is proportional to the working speed (C16=4).
It is also possible to have the absolute internal variable value desired: to do this it is simply necessary
to program the connection corresponding to the denied desired number: for example taking C15=-21
there will be an analog output signal proportional to the absolute value of the working frequency.
It is also possible to have a analog output fixed to +10V: to do this it is simply necessary to program
the connection corresponding to 64.

3.2.3.1 SIMULATED ENCODER SIGNALS

and the selection made (see connection C51 in the core file) and their behaviour in time depends on
rotation sense (CW or CCW) and on C50 as shown in the figures below

User’s manual
The simulated encoder outputs are all driven by a “LINE DRIVER”. Their level in the standard drive
version is referred to +5V and then it is connected to the internal supply (TTL +5V).
In option (to be requested in the ordering) there is the possibility to refer the signal level to an
external supply whose value must be between +5V and +24V, connection on terminal 5 and 6.
In the connected device it is better to use a differential input to avoid loops with the 0V wire, to limit
noise effects it is better to load this input (10mA max).
It is necessary to use a twisted shielded cable
to make a proper connection.
WARNING: the external power supply GND is connected with the 0V of the drive (it is not
optoisolated).
WARNING: for the encoder simulation with internal supply (standard drive version) you must
not connect the terminal 5 (Vccin), because it could seriously damage the drive, and set the

3.2.3.2 CONFIGURATION OF THE ENCODER SIMULATION OUTPUT
The two bidirectional simulation encoder channels could have a number of pulses per motor
revolution selectable with C51 according to the following table, that also depends on the number of
sensor polar couples:

WARNING: The choice of the number of pulses for revolution depends on th e maximum speed
and the number of sensor polar couples (P68/2). In the following table are r ep orted this
limitation. If it is selected a number of pulses too high compared with the maximum speed it is
triggered the alarm A15 code =1.

25600 1024
32767 512
NB: In the particular case of Resolver decoded with RDC19224, the choice of the number of pulses
for revolution depends on the maximum speed and the number of sensor polar couples (P68/2) in
this way:
Maximum speed (rpm) x P68/2 Pul/rev motor/(P68/2)
1500 16384
6000 4096
24000 1024
The default value is C51=5 correspond to 1024 pul/rev.
As can be seen, the number of pulses also depends on the number of sensor poles which are set in
parameter P68, and, in particular, the above-mentioned values are valid if the sensor is two-pole
.
The pulse output is controlled by a line driver (ET 7272); the limitation of the number of pulses
regards the maximum speed is done for limit the maximum frequency for channel to 437KHz.
3.2.3.3 INCREMENTAL OR ABSOLUTE SIMULATED ENCODER
The C54 connection allows to select two different modes of working for simulated encoder:
In cremental Simulated Encoder C54=0 (default): in this mode the simulated encoder
channels follow the motor rotation in incremental way and the third channel (zero pulse)
looses of meaning
Absolu te Simu lated Encoder C54=1: in this mode also the third channel (zero pulse) is
managed but in the first edge of sensor zero pulse there will be a correction into simulated
encoder channels.
This choice is significant only for sensors with a zero pulse (Encoder, Encoder and Hall sensors,
Sin/Cos Encoder), in the other case (Resolver, Endat) the Simulated Encoder is always absolute,
without any correction into simulated encoder channels.
The third channel generates a number of zero pulses in phase with channel A, equal to the number of
sensor poles divided by two (P68/2); in particular there is one single zero pulse per motor revolution
with a two-pole sensor.
The position of the zero pulse depends on the fit of the sensor on the drive shaft; with reference to
the original position, decoding the zero of the sensor position, this position may be changed with
jumps of 90° electrical (with reference to the sensor) by means of connection C49 according to the
following table:
69
User’s manual
C49 Displacement
0 +0°
1 +90°
2 +180°
3 +270°
The default value is 0.
These electrical degrees correspond to the mechanical degrees if the resolver has two poles .
Connection C50 inverts the encoder B channel, thus inverting its phase with respect to channel A,
with the same motor rotation direction.
By default C50=0
By P124 (default = 100%) is possible to reduce the loop gain. This can increase the stability of the
system, but reduce the speed response.

3.3 MOTION CONTROL
3.3.1 INCREMENTAL POSITION LOOP
Name Description Min Max Default UM Scale
FLW_ERR_MAX_LSW
POS_REG_KP P38 - Kv position loop proportional gain 0.0 100.0 4 10
Continuous position control during rotation is used to synchronise both speed and space with the
speed reference value used.
To enable this function, set input function I17 “Enable overlapped space loop” to high logic level or
set C239=1. From then on, an internal counter will be save any position errors regarding the space
crossed by the reference value. If the drive RUN command is disabled, the error will be accumulated
until it can be corrected once RUN has been enabled again.
Using parameters P37 (65536=1 mechanical turn) and P39 (number of mechanical turns) it’s possible
to set a maximum tracking error threshold, if the absolute error value becomes greater than this
value, the logic output o.9 “Tracking error” goes at high level.
The overlapped space loop reference value is generated by the application and regards the
“theta_rif_pos” value, which is also expressed in electrical pulses for a period of PWM.
Note that once this function has been enabled, the overlapped space loop reference value will
become the real position reference value, while the other speed reference values will represent feedforward.
The space loop regulator is a pure proportional gain and its gain can be set on P38: set a value that
ensures a quick response, but one that does not make the motor vibrate at a standstill.
The continuous position control is most commonly applied to the electric axis: by taking the speed
reference value from the MASTER’s Simulated Encoder and taking it to the SLAVE’s frequency input,
the motion of the two motors can be synchronised. Once the overlapped space loop is enabled, the
two motors will always maintain the same relative position whatever their load. If the SLAVE reaches
its torque limit, the counter will save the position error and then correct it as long as the internal
counter limit has not been reached, in which case the synchronisation will be lost.

3.3.1.1 FREQUENCY SPACE REFERENCE (ELECTRICAL AXES)
Managing a frequency space reference means always guarantee the same phase angle between
master and slave. To do this work is necessary to enable the overlapped position loop with parameter
P239 or bringing at active state input function I17.
It should then provide a speed feed-forward reference, the best solution is to use the frequency
speed reference decoded in time (P224=1 and P219=0), alternatively, wanting to work in pulses,
clear P224=0.
Note: Wanting to manage in space the frequency reference, it’s not possible to enable pulses and
decoding in time reference(P224 = 2).

3.3.2 PID CONTROLLER
73
User’s manual
74
For a better understanding of the PID function it is useful to identify three parts of the controller
structure:
1. PID input signals. In this section conditioning and setting of the analog references (see
chapterxxx),Frequency reference (see chapter xxxx) and second sensor (see…) is
considered and managed. The output of this part can be used as input to the PID
regulator block.
2. PID Regulator Block. This is the PID regulator or controller with its parameter and
setting as gains and scaling factors.
3. PID output signals . This section is used for conditioning and managing the PID
regulator output signal to be used as reference input in the drive.
PID Input signals there considers three different possible setting of OPD Explorer: Set Point PID
Regulator, Feed back PID Regulator and Manual set point PID Controller.
In all the three different setting the signals coming from the analog inputs AI1,AI2, and AI3, from the
frequency input as speed reference and from the second sensor are eventually either added or
compared together.
With the exception of the feedback setting the reference can be a digital set point with the appropriate
configurations.
The three generated signals as from above will be then after treated thru a scaling block as here
below written:
With reference to the input signals and specifically for only the manual set point and the reference
set point it is possible to have an acceleration and deceleration time with the appropriate
parameters. The time has to be intended from the minimum value to reach the set value and
viceversa.
The PID regulator can work in two different ways as for the actual value of input “auto” handled with a
selector set by parameter P262 and the input I28.
If signal “auto” is “false” PID output is related to the manual set-point, while if “auto” is true the PID
works in automatic way.
With the following premises:
- Input “SP” is the regulation reference with PID enabled (“auto”=TRUE) displayed thru
internal value “ACT_SP_PID” (D83)
- Input “PV” is the feedback signal of the regulator with PID enabled (“auto”=TRUE)
displayed thru internal value “ACT_PV_PID” (D85)
- Input “KP_Filter” defines the time for the first order filter that acts only on the
proportional part
- Thru input “Man_SP” it is possible to set the output value “XOUT” when PID is disabled
(“auto”=”False”);
- The PID parameters are:
• “KP” proportional gain
• “TI” integral time defined in ms (if set = 0 integral gain is disabled)
• “TD” derivative time defined in ms (if set = 0 integral gain is disabled)
- Thru inputs “XMAX” (parameter “LMN_MIN_OUT_PID” P277) and “XMIN” (parameter
“LMN_MIN_OUT_PID” P276) it is possible to limit the regulation value as “XOUT”.
When output “XOUT” reaches its regulation limit the integral part will be freezed and
blocked.
In manual mode
“Error” (error value displayed in D92) = SP - PV;
“LMN_P” (proportional part displayed in D89) =0.0;

“LMN_D” (derivative part displayed in D91)=0.0;

4.1.2.1 01 READ COIL STATUS
This function allows the user to read the status of the digital inputs and outputs.
It is important to underline that the standard management of the digital inputs requires that the RUN
enable must be given both via terminal board and via serial line; all the other inputs instead can be
commanded by one of the two ways just listed. The default RUN input from the serial line is high
while all the others are low: in this way the user who is not using it, can have the total control of
digital inputs from the terminal board.
Thanks to Read Coil Status function it is possible to read the status of the digital inputs and related
outputs you are interested in, just specifying the correct address written in the following table :

ID_CANOPEN P162 - CAN BUS node ID 1 127 1
Range
0 1 M
1 800 k
CANOPEN_BAUD_SEL C48 - CAN Baud rate
These parameters must be rightly configured and saved in the permanent memory of the
drive (C63=1). At start up these data are considered and become operating.

4.2.1.2 CONFIGURATION OF THE COMMUNICATION OBJECTS
The configuration of the communication objects CAN OPEN DS301 can uniquely be done via CAN.
At first switch on, the drive is a non-configured node which satisfies the “pre defined connection set”
for the identifiers allocation; for this, the following objects are available:
rx SDO with COB-ID = 600h + ID CAN node (parameter P162)
tx SDO with COB-ID = 580h + ID CAN node
an emergency object with COB-ID = 80h + ID CAN node
NMT objects (Network Management) : in broadcast (COB-ID=0) for Module Control services and
COB-ID = 700h + ID CAN node for Error Control.
The SYNC object in broadcast with COB-ID = 80h
With the SDO available, the drive can be totally configured as CAN node and only after the
communication objects can be saved in the permanent memory using the proper command “store
parameters” (1010h)” on the Sub-Index 2.
Also the object “restore default parameters (1011h)” Sub-Index 2 is managed to load all the default
communication objects and to save them automatically in the permanent memory (switch off and then
on the drive to make objects operating ).
4.2.2 MANAGED SERVICES
4.2.2.1 SERVICE DATA OBJECT (SDO)
SDO are used to access the objects dictionary. In our implementation a maximum of 4 server SDO
can be available which can be configured with the following objects:
1200h 1
1201h 2
1202h 3
1203h 4
st
server SDO parameter
nd
server SDO parameter
rd

th
server SDO parameter
The transfer mode depends on the length of the data to be transferred : up to 4byte data length, the
modality expedited is used as it is simple and immediate; for bigger size objects the modality
segmented and block are both supported. See the specific Communication Profile DS301 for having
details on the different transmission modes; hereinafter are written only some peculiarities of our
implementation:
a writing access to SDO must indicate the number of significant byte (data set size)
the writing data by SDO is liable to the same rules ( drive state, keys, tolerated range…) seen for the
other modalities of parameters modify (serial and keyboard).
If SDO are structured in more segments, the drive will start writing the data at the indicated address
with the first segment, without using a temporary buffer
A controller is intended to avoid that two SDOs access the same object at the same time.
With the transmission in block modality, the computation of CRC and the “Protocol Switch Threshold”
are not supported.
It is possible to set the block size of the SDO Block Download service at the address 2000h of the
objects dictionary, in the manufacturer specific section.
4.2.2.2 PROCESS DATA OBJECT (PDO)
PDO are used for the data exchange in real-time in the objects dictionary that supports this function.
4.2.2.3 TRANSMIT PDO
In our implementation up to a maximum of 4 TPDO can be configured with the following objects :
1800h 1
1801h 2
1802h 3
1803h 4

the 5 Sub-Index related to every type of TPDO are all managed : it is possible to set the transmission
type (see the following table), the inhibit time with 100
μs resolution and the period of the event timer
with 1ms resolution
transmission type PDO transmission

Synchronous and cyclical: the number indicates how many SYNC arein between
two following transmissions
Data are refreshed and sent when the RTR is received (remote transmission
request)
Event timer : cyclical transmission with a period time settable in ms in the SubIndex 5
Note: in the transmission type 255, it is possible to choose on which event the TPDO transmission
works. The event choice can be effectuated only during the compiling the software code.
The TPDO mapping can be dynamically effectuated by rightly configuring the following
communication objects:

1A01h 2
1A02h 3
1A03h 4
st

the PDO mapping must be done by following these instructions:
1- the number of the mapped objects in Sub-Index 0 must be equal to zero
2- the addresses of all mapped objects must be configured
3- the correct number of mapped objects in the Sub-Index 0 must be
indicated
4.2.2.4 RECEIVED PDO
In our implementation a maximum of 4 RPDO can be configured with the following objects:
1400h 1
1401h 2
1402h 3
1403h 4
The first 2 Sub-Index related to each RPDO are managed: in this way it is possible to set the
transmission type:
254 Asynchronous: the values received in the RPDO are immediately activated.
synchronous: when the following SYNC is received, the values received on
the RPDO will be activated.
The RPDO mapping can be dynamically effectuated by rightly configuring the following
communication objects:
1600h 1
1601h 2
1602h 3
1603h 4
RPDO mapping must be executed by following the next directives as well:

4.2.3 EMERGENCY OBJECT (EMCY)
The emergency object is transmitted by the drive when a new enabled alarm comes trough or when
one or more alarms are reset. The Emergency telegram is made by 8byte as shown in the following
table:
Byte 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Emergency
meaning
Error Code
Error
register
Manufacturer specific
alarms LSB –MSB
In our implementation only two codes of the error code are implemented :
00xx = Error Reset or No Error
10xx = Generic Error
Speaking of the Error register (object 1001h), the following bits are managed corresponding to the
following alarms:
Bit Meaning Corresponding alarms
0 General error all
1 Current A3
2 Voltage A10 - A11 -A13
3 temperature A4 - A5 - A6
In Manufacturer specific only the bytes 3 and 4 are assigned which contain the state of the various
alarms of the drive. Further 3 bytes for the transmission of possible other user’s data are available.
The management of 1003h “pre-defined error field “ object memorises the chronology of the alarm
events (from start up of the drive) up to a maximum of 32 elements.
At every new alarm event 4 bytes are memorised, 2 are mandatory and correspond to the Error
Code; the other 2 are Manufacturer specific and in our specific case correspond to the state of all the
drive alarms.
This function allows the NMT master to check and set the state to every NMT slave.
All the services of Module Control and also the Node Guarding Protocol which uses the COB-ID =
700h + ID CAN node are implemented: this allows the slave to communicate that the bootup ended
and the pre-operational modality is active, thus the master can interrogate the different slaves with an
RTR.
The Life guarding function is implemented as well: the drive (NMT slave) can be set up by the
objects:
100Ch Guard time in ms
100Dh Life time factor (multiplier factor)
83
User’s manual
their product yields the Node life time
note: node life time is internally saturated in the
period time of 32767/fpwm sec.
Life guarding is enabled only if life time Node is different to zero; in this case the check-up starts after
having received the first RTR from the NMT master.
The Communication profile DS301 doesn’t decide which action it has to start if the time constrain of
life guarding hasn’t been respected. It’s possible to decide how to act, during the firmware
compilation step. By default, no action is done.

User’s manual
4.2.6.7 MANAGEMENT OF THE MONITOR (OBJECTS FROM 2009H TO
200CH +2012H)
These objects are related to the monitor of the drive internal values.
K_zz (2009h) is the internal counter of the 2000 points circular buffer.
Start_count If ≠0 it indicates that the trigger event set with C14 went off
Tab_monitor_A (200Bh) and Tab_monitor_B (200Ch) are circular buffer where the internal values
selected by C15 and C16 are stored
Moreover parameter P54,P55 and P56 are involved. P54 sets the sample time of the monitor( units =
PWM period); P55 sets the post-trigger points; P56 sets the trigger level if this is effectuated on the
monitored internal values
See the product documentation for detailing of the monitored internal values
The object Tab_osc (2012h) is an array of 64 internal values with the most recent values of all the
monitoring variables. In this way the single objects can be mapped as PDOs to keep under control
the internal values of the drive.
The management of the input logic functions is totally controlled via CAN.
In the variable inputs (2013h) it is possible to read the status of the 8 input available in the terminal-
box in the less significant bit. The 8 logic input are configured by the C1-C8 connections, each one
checking a particular input logic function.
Standard input logic functions (I00 ÷ I28)
The status of the 32 input logic functions is available in two different dictionary objects:
the array Tab_inp_dig (2010h) in which it’s possible to read function by function using sub-index (
logic state 0 = low ; 32767 = high) and the 32 bit variable Ingressi_standar d_rd (2021h) in which
every bit is related to the state of corresponding function.
Via CAN it’s possible to set the status of the input logic functions: writing function by function with the
array Tab_inp_dig_field (2016h) (0=low, 32767=high) or setting the state of all 32 logic functions
writing the 32bit variable Ingressi_standard_wr (201Fh).
The implemented logic provides that:
- The 0 logic input function (drive switch on/off) is given by the logic AND of the different input
channels : terminal board, field-bus and serial line
- All the other logic functions can be set high by the logic OR of the different channels.
At start up, Tab_inp_dig_field [0]=high : in this way if this value is never over-written, the drive can be
controlled via terminal-board.
Application input logic functions (I29 ÷ I63)
The status of the 32 application input logic functions is available in the 32 bit variable
Ingressi_appl_rd (2022h) in which every bit is related to the state of corresponding function.
Via CAN it’s possible to set the status of all application input logic functions writing the 32bit variable
Ingressi_appl_wr (2020h).
The implemented logic provides that:
- The 32 application input logic functions can be set via CAN
- If one application input logic function is configured to a connector logic input, the physical
state imposes the state of corresponding logic function.
Via CAN bus ,it is possible the monitoring the state of :
- the status of the 4 logic outputs in the 4 less significant bits of the variable output (2015h)
- the status of the 32 logic output functions in the array Tab_out_dig (2011h) using the subindex. Like the inputs logic levels are: 0=low and 32767=high
- the status of all 32 output logic functions in the 32 bit variable Uscite_logiche_rd (2023h) in
which every bit is related to the corresponding function
90
4.2.6.10 STATUS WORDS (OBJECTS 2017H, 2018 AND 2019H)
the object 2017h is available as status word of the drive with the following meaning:
1 = Mains break
Break :
0 = off ; 1 = on
15
Status
1 = Power switch
on
1 = Drive ready
The object 2018h is available as the status of the different alarms of the drive bit by bit; for example,
the status of A8 alarm is shown by the bit n.8 of the word.
The object 2019h is the alarm enabling mask. Again the meaning is bit by bit. This variable is
available as read only access ; see parameter P163 for read and write access.

4.2.6.11 CONTROL REFERENCE VIA CAN BUS (OBJECTS
201AH,201BH,201CH AND 201DH)
These objects can be used to give: speed-reference, torque-reference, torque-limit to the drive. For
doing this it is necessary to enable their management, setting C52=1.
f_fieldbus (201A) = speed reference in percent of the max speed set. Base representation is equal
to16384; thus 16384 is equal to 100%.
Theta_fieldbus (201D) = speed reference in electric pulses per period of PWM, considering that
there are 65536 pulses per revolution and that the term ‘electric’ means
they must be multiplied by the number of polar pairs of the motor.
Trif_fieldbus (201C) = couple reference in percent of the nominal torque of the motor. Base of
Representation = 4095 : thus 4095 is = 100%
Limit_fieldbus (201A) = torque limit in percent of the nominal torque of the motor ( it is in alternative
to the other existing limits, the most restricted is the one that values).
Representation base is 4095 : thus 4095 = 100%

5.2.1 STORAGE AND RECALL OF THE WORKING PARAMETERS
The drive has three types of memory:
The non permanent work memory (RAM), where the parameters become used for operation and
modified parameters become stored; such parameters become lost due to the lack of feeding
regulation.
The permanent work memory (FLASH), where the actual working parameters become stored to be
used in sequence (C63=1, Save Parameters on FLASH).
The permanent system memory where the default parameters are contained.
When switched on, the drive transfers the permanent memory parameters on to the working memory
in order to work. If the modifications carry out on the parameters, they become stored in the work
memory and therefore become lost in the break of feeding rather than being saved in the permanent
memory.
If after the work memory modifications wants to return to the previous security, it is acceptable to load
on such a memory, a permanent memory parameter (Load FLASH Parameter C62=1).
If for some reason the parameters in FLASH change, it is necessary to resume the default
parameters (C61=1 Load Default Parameters), to make the appropriate corrections and then save
them in the permanent working parameter (C63=1).
It is possible to save the data in the permanent memory also at drive switched on/RUN, while the
loading may only be affected aside with drive switched off/STOP, after having opened the key to
reserved parameters.

5.2.1.1 ACTIVE BANK PARAMETERS
This function allows to switch over the internal sets of parameters and connections between two
distinct memory banks (drive must be switched off, no RUN).
To activate this function, it is necessary to use the logic input I16, configuring it on a logic input on
both banks. The connection C60 indicates the actual data bank in the permanent memory: C60=0
bank 0; C60=1 bank 1. The commutation of the functions logic stage I16 brings an automatic
variation of data of C60 and a successive automatic reading of data from the permanent memory.
C60

On the front of commutation of I16
changes C60 and a reading from
FLASH is required
For initial configuration of the input function I16, follow these steps:
1. Prepare in RAM, the data in bank 0, configuring input function I16 and holding it to a
low logic level (make sure C60=0).
2. Save to the permanent memory with C63=1.
3. Always keep I16=L, prepare in RAM the data from bank 1, configuring the same input
to the function I16.
4. Set C60=1 and save the data in the permanent memory with C63=1.
5. At this point, changing the state of logic input corresponding to function I16, the
bank’s commutation will have automatic reading

5.3.1 DRIVE READY
The Drive Ready condition (o.L.0=H) is given by alarms are not active and at the same time both the
software and hardware enables:
* The software enable, given by state of the connection C29, (C29=1 of default).
* The external enable (the function of the input is assigned to the default input L.I.2)
If an enable is missing or an alarm is active, the ready drive signal goes into an non-active state
o.L.0=L and this state remains until the causes that brought about the alarm conditions are removed
and the alarms are reset. An alarm reset can be achieved by activating the function “Alarm reset”
that, by default, is assigned to input L.1 (or setting C30=1).
Keep in mind that the “Alarm reset” is achieved by the active front of the signal, not on the active
level.
5.3.2 DRIVE SWITCH ON / RUN
When the drive is “Ready to switch on / RUN” o.L.0=H, motor may start running “Drive switch on/run”
o.L.3=H, by activating both the hardware and software switch on enables:
* Function “Logic switch on/RUN input” (default input 4 assigned) RUN=H
* Software switch on/RUN C21 (C21=1) is active by default.
Switch on/RUN disable and enable (from STOP offline, to RUN online) is given by the logic of the
following table:
Drive ready o.L.0 Switch on / RUN C21 ON-LINE
L X X L
H L X L
H X 0 L
H H 1 H
It is mentioned that the input function “Switch on/RUN input” can given also via serial line or field-bus.
See for details the Standard Application Manual.
94
5.3.3 DRIVE SWITCH OFF / STOP
By default, the drive switch off instantaneously as soon as one of the switch on functions is disabled
(immediate shutdown); that may also cause an almost immediate rotation shutdown, if the motor is
loaded and the inertia is low, while coasting if the motor is without load and mechanical inertia is high.
Using the connection C28, it is possible to choose to switch off the drive only with motor at minimum
speed. With C28=1, 0=immediate switch off by default, when SWITCH ON/RUN function is disable,
the speed reference is brought to zero, thus the motor starts to slowdown following the ramp (the
drive is still switched on). The system is switched off /STOP (offline) only once the motor absolute
speed goes below the threshold set in P50 (2.0% default), that is when the motor is almost
motionless (shutdown for minimum speed).
Calibrating P50 may coincide the drive block with the motionless motor. The state of speed above
the minimum is signaled from the logical output function o.L.2, moreover the output function o.L.16 is
available, that signals the drive speed (absolute value) is above the threshold speed level P47. In
every way, whichever is the chosen type of shutdown, there is an immediate drive block in presence
of any alarm condition, oL.0 = L.
5.3.4 SAFETY STOP
The OPEN drive converters have the possibility to give the separated IGBT supply. This supply
voltage can be see like safety STOP input and there are two different managements for this input,
selectable with C73 connection:
For OPEN DRIVE versions with Safe Torque Off safety function (STO) according to EN 618005-2 and EN 13849-1 see STO installation manual
5.3.4.1 MACHINE SAFETY (C73=0)
Setting C73=0 (default) the Safety STOP is compatible with EN945-1 specification against accidental
starts. When this input is at low logical level the IGBT power bridge isn’t supplied and the motor
couldn’t run more than 180°/motor poles couple for brushless motor (for asynchronous motors the
movement is zero), also if there is a brake in the power bridge.
The converter signals this state with the alarm A13.1, the output o17 “Power electronic not supplied” goes at high level, the output o0 “Drive ready” goes at low level and the Power Soft start
command is taken off.
To recover the normal converter state, follow this steps:
Give +24V to the IGBT driver supply input (Safety STOP). At this point the converter
goes at low level the output o17 “Power electronic not supplied”.
Reset the converter alarms for eliminate the alarm A13.The normal converter state is
recovered.
After 500ms the converter is able to start the Soft start sequence
5.3.4.2 POWER PART ENABLE INPUT (C73=1)
Setting C73=1 the Safety STOP is like a Power part enable input. Like in the preceding case,
when this input is at low logical level the IGBT power bridge isn’t supplied and the motor couldn’t run
more than 180°/motor poles couple for brushless motor (for asynchronous motors the movement is
zero), also if there is a brake in the power bridge.
The converter signals this state with the output o17 “Power electronic not supplied” that goes at
high level, the Power Soft start command is taken off, but unlike before no alarms goes at active
state. To recover the normal converter state, follow this steps:
Give +24V to the IGBT driver supply input (Safety STOP). At this point the converter
goes at low level the output o17 “Power electronic not supplied”.
After 500ms the converter is able to start the Soft start sequence
In this case it isn’t necessary to reset the alarms after take back at high level the Safety STOP input,
it will be sufficient to wait 500ms + soft start time, after that the converter could be goes on run.

6 ALARMS
6.1 MAINTENANCE AND CONTROLS
The drive has a range of functions that cut in if there is a fault in order to prevent damage to both the
drive and the motor. If a protection switch cuts in, the drive output is blocked and the motor coasts.
If one or more of the protection switches (alarms) cut in, they are signalled on the displays, which
start to flash and to show a cycle of all the alarms triggered (the 7-segment display shows the alarms
that have been set off in hexadecimal).
Should the drive malfunction or an alarm be triggered, check the possible causes and act
accordingly.
If the causes cannot be traced or if parts are found to be faulty, contact TDE MACNO and provide a
detailed description of the problem and its circumstances.
The alarm indication are divide in 16 categories (A0÷A15) and for each alarm can be present code to

a PTC/NTC is being used and its
Ohm value (d41) has breached
the safety threshold (P95). If C46
= 3 a digital input has been
configured to I23 logical input

Check the connection wires on the motor side, in particular on
the terminals, in order to prevent leakages or short circuits.
Check the motor insulation by testing the dielectric strength,
and replace if necessary.
Check the drive power circuit is intact by opening the
connections and enabling RUN; if the safety switch cuts in,
replace the power. If the safety switch cuts in only during
operation, there may be a regulation problem (replace along

Check the temperature reading in d26 and then check the
motor. With a KTY84, if -273.15 appears the electrical
connection towards the motor heat probe has been interrupted.
If the reading is correct and the motor is overheating, check that
the motor cooling circuit is intact. Check the fan, its power unit,
the vents, and the air inlet filters on the cabinet. Replace or

An overvoltage in the mains may also trigger the safety switch.
If the drive is fitted with a braking circuit, check that the
resistance value is not too high to absorb the peak power.
If the resistor is not too hot, check the resistor and connection
continuity and ensure that the circuit functions correctly.

MiniOPD’s Specific Alarms Date:03/12/2010
The new MiniOPD consists of 2 fast-communicating microprocessors. One microprocessor is located
in the Regulation board (as in standard OPDs); the second one is located in the Power board.
Thanks to this new configuration, the MiniOPD features some types of alarms that are not included in
the OPD series. These alarms have been renamed, so as to guarantee maximum compatibility with
those who already use the OPD series.
MiniOPD’s specific alarms are listed in Table 1:
Alarm
A.10.0
A.10.5
A.10.6
A.10.7
A.10.8
A.10.15
These alarms take the form of sub-alarms of alarm A.10, to indicate that they all depend on the
Power board.
If Alarm A.10.0 – Minimum Voltage of Power Circuit – occurs first, followed by a second alarm from
the Power board (typically a Communication Alarm or 15V Wrong Power Supply Alarm), the latter
alarms are not shown by the Drive, as they are a direct consequence of alarm A.10.0.
