•

the I/O of the AC drive.

A sleep mode function that automatically enables and disables the operation of the drive

•

to save energy.

A 2-zone PID controller with 2 different feedback signals: minimum and maximum

•

control.

2 setpoint sources for the PID control. You can make the selection with a digital input.

•

A function for PID setpoint boost.

•

A feedforward function to make the response to the process changes better.

•

A. The BACK/RESET button. Use it to move

back in the menu, exit the Edit mode,

reset a fault.
B. The arrow button UP. Use it to scroll the

menu up and to increase a value.
C. The FUNCT button. Use it to change the

rotation direction of the motor, access

the control page, and change the control

place. See more in Table 38 Frequency

reference parameters.

D. The arrow button RIGHT.
E. The START button.
F. The arrow button DOWN. Use it to scroll

the menu down and to decrease a value.
G. The STOP button.
H. The arrow button LEFT. Use it to move

the cursor left.
I. The OK button. Go into an active level or

item, accept a selection.

1.2 THE DISPLAYS

There are 2 display types: the graphical display and the text display. The control panel always
has the same keypad and buttons.

The display shows this data.

The status of the motor and the drive.

After these selections, the Start-up wizard is completed. To start the Start-up wizard again,
you have 2 alternatives. Go to the parameter P6.5.1 Restore Factory Defaults or to the
parameter B1.1.2 Start-up Wizard. Then set the value to Activate.

1.4 DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICATIONS

Use the parameter P1.2 (Application) to make a selection of an application for the drive.
Immediately when the parameter P1.2 changes, a group of parameters get their preset
values.

1.4.1 STANDARD APPLICATION

You can use the Standard application in speed-controlled processes where no special
functions are necessary, for example pumps, fans, or conveyors.

It is possible to control the drive from the keypad, Fieldbus or I/O terminal.
When you control the drive with the I/O terminal, the frequency reference signal is connected

to AI1 (0…10V) or AI2 (4…20mA). The connection depends the type of the signal. There are
also 3 preset frequency references available. You can activate the preset frequency
references with DI4 and DI5. The start/stop signals of the drive are connected to DI1 (start
forward) and DI2 (start reverse).

It is possible to configure all the drive outputs freely in all the applications. There are 1
analogue output (Output Frequency) and 3 relay outputs (Run, Fault, Ready) available on the
basic I/O board.

1.4.2 LOCAL/REMOTE APPLICATION

Use the Local/Remote application when, for example, it is necessary to switch between 2
different control places.

To change between the Local and the Remote control place, use DI6. When Remote control is
active, you can give the start/stop commands from Fieldbus or from I/O terminal (DI1 and
DI2). When Local control is active, you can give the start/stop commands from the keypad,
Fieldbus or I/O terminal (DI4 and DI5).

For each control place, you can make a selection of the frequency reference from the
keypad, Fieldbus or I/O terminal (AI1 or AI2).

It is possible to configure all the drive outputs freely in all the applications. There are 1
analogue output (Output Frequency) and 3 relay outputs (Run, Fault, Ready) available on the
basic I/O board.

You can use the Multi-step speed application with processes where more than 1 fixed
frequency reference is necessary (for example test benches).

It is possible to use 1 + 7 frequency references: 1 basic reference (AI1 or AI2) and 7 preset
references.

Make a selection of the preset frequency references with digital signals DI4, DI5 and DI6. If
none of these inputs are active, the frequency reference is removed from the analogue input
(AI1 or AI2). Give the start/stop commands from the I/O terminal (DI1 and DI2).
