Manual’s Purpose and Scope

This manual provides information on how to download, install, and operate the ASD Pro Software. The
information provided in this manual applies to the ASD Pro Software and how the software is used
with related Toshiba products.

Safe and proper operation of the ASD Pro Software will require that the user be familiar with the
contents of this manual and the contents of the manual of the ASD for which the ASD Pro Software is
to support.

The ASD Pro Software is designed to support the 7-Series and 9-Series family of ASDs. Because of the
inherent differences in the ASD types, there may be some accessible parameters for a given ASD for
which there will be no function. An example would be as with the My Function feature and its related
parameters of the 9-Series family — when connected to a 7-Series ASD, the related parameters will
have no function.

ASD-to-PC Connectivity Precautions

DANGER

WARNING

ASD-to-PC connectivity may be carried out via the Toshiba NetPac Wireless System or via the USB­to-RJ45 cable. The content of this manual will cover the RJ45 cable connection method as the primary
means of connectivity for software use. The Toshiba NetPac Wireless System is discussed only as it
applies to the Network Window of the software that is used to manage the connected nodes of the
Toshiba NetPac Wireless System.

Note: See the NetPac Wireless System Installation and Operation Manual for specifics on

the setup, installation, and use of the wireless system.

Connecting a personal computer (PC) to an ASD via a communication cable is potentially very
dangerous. When using a communication cable, ensure that the cable is not in contact with any
energized part of the ASD.

Ensure that all personnel are in a safe location and that the equipment connected to the ASD will not
cause equipment damage or injury to personnel from any sudden or unexpected starting or stopping of
the motor.

ASD parameter changes made using the ASD Pro Software may cause unexpected starting or stopping
of the connected motor. Always turn off ASD power and then turn it on again before the final checkout.
This ensures that parameters are written to the ASD memory correctly.

DO NOT use a cable that is frayed or that shows any signs of damage when connecting the PC to the
ASD.

The routing of the cable through the ASD is critical. Avoid areas of the ASD where electrical noise may
be induced into the cable. The cable must be routed and secured to avoid any areas where high voltages
may be present. High voltage entering the cable may result in equipment damage, injury to personnel or
loss of life.

DO NOT exert any force on the RJ45 wires or connections. Tension from pulling on RJ45 cables may
damage the connections within the connector shell. Damaged wires can result in intermittent
communication or no communication.

DO NOT plug an EOI/keypad into an energized ASD. The ASD should always be Off prior to removal
or installation of an EOI/keypad.

The ASD Pro Software enhances the programmability of TIC’s ASDs. ASDs produced by TIC are
installed as a part of a larger system and may present hazards to equipment or personnel if improperly
programmed.

If using the Toshiba NetPac Wireless System to connect the ASD to the PC, once connectivity is
established, DO NOT swap the routers of the connected ASDs.

If using the Toshiba NetPac Wireless System to connect the ASD to the PC, set the ASD
Communications Time Out Time and the Communications Time Out Action parameters to a
disposition in the event of a loss of communication.

ONLY qualified personnel should make changes to the parameters of the ASD.

ASD Pro Software Installation and Operation Manual 5

System Protection

DANGER

• Ensure that primary protection exists for the input wiring to the equipment. This protection must be
able to interrupt the available fault current from the power line. The equipment may or may not be
equipped with an (optional) input disconnect.

• Improper programming of the ASD Pro Software can result in loss of control. Ensure that the
Emergency Off braking system of the ASD is properly set up. The function of the Emergency Off
braking function is to remove output power from the drive in the event of an emergency. A
supplemental braking system may also be engaged in the event of an emergency.

Note: A supplemental emergency stopping system should be used with the ASD. Emergency

stopping should not be a task of the ASD alone.

• Follow all warnings and precautions and do not exceed equipment ratings.

ASD Setup Requirements

• When using the ASD Pro Software as an integral part of a larger system, it is the responsibility of
the ASD installer/maintenance personnel and the software user/installer to ensure that there is a
fail-safe in place (i.e., an arrangement designed to switch the system to a safe condition if there is a
fault or failure).

• System safety features should be employed and designed into the integrated system in a manner
such that system operation, even in the event of system failure or programming error, will not cause
harm or result in system damage or injury to personnel (i.e., E-Off, Auto-Restart settings, System
Interlocks, etc.).

• The programming setup and system configurations of the ASD Pro Software may allow it to start
the motor unexpectedly. A familiarity with the Auto-Restart and system protection settings are a
requirement to use this product.

• Improperly designed or improperly installed system interlocks, or improper system settings may
render the motor unable to start or stop on command. Know and understand the parameter values
and settings that are being changed.

• Use of the built-in system protective features of the ASD Pro Software is highly recommended
(i.e., E-Off, Overload Protection, etc.).

• It is the responsibility of the ASD installer/maintenance personnel and the software user/installer to
know the outcome of changes made to the ASD parameters while using the ASD Pro Software.
