1. MULTIPURPOSE APPLICATION

The VACON® 20 CP/X drive contains a preloaded application for instant use.

The parameters of this application are listed in chapter 2.3 of this manual and explained in
more detail in chapter 2.

1.1 Specific functions of Vacon Multipurpose application

The Vacon Multipurpose allows flexible use of VACON® 20 CP/X frequency converters.

Features

The drive can be controlled through I/O terminals, a fieldbus or the optional keypad.Two pro­grammable control places and sources for the frequency reference are available, for easy lo­cal/remote control.

Frequency reference can be direct (analogue input, preset speeds, motor potentiometer, field­bus) or controlled by the internal PID regulator.

PID setpoint and actual value are totally programmable. A "sleep" function is available, with
possibility of pressure boost and check of the losses before entering the stand-by state.

All the functionalities can be controlled through a fieldbus.

The motor identification function allows automatic optimization of the voltage/frequency curve,
for a optimal torque response also at low motor speed.

It is possible to install one optional board for I/O or fieldbus expansion.

Both AC induction motor and PM motor can be controlled.

1.3 Optional boards

One optional I/O expansion board can be installed into the slot on the right side of the drive. The
following boards are supported:

OPTB1: 6 Digital Inputs-Outputs

The first 3 terminals are reserved as digital inputs (DI7, DI8, DI9). The second 3 terminals can
be used as inputs (DI10, DI11, DI12) or digital outputs (EO1, EO2, EO3). The number of terminals
used as input must be declared in parameter P2.24 (hidden if the board is not installed). This
number determines the higher value for the selection of the digital input connected to a certain
logical function. It also changes the visibility of parameters for the selection of digital outputs
function (P5.9, P5.10, P5.11).

OPTB2: 1 Thermistor Input, 2 Relays Outputs

Response to thermistor fault can be programmed with parameter P9.16. Relays functions can
be programmed with parameters P5.9, P5.10 (hidden if the board is not installed).

One more input is available as frequency reference. Signal programmable with parameters
P3.9 - 12. Two more outputs are available to monitor motor/drive signals. Outputs are pro­grammable with parameters P6.5 - 12.

Parameters are hidden if the board is not installed.

OPTB5: 3 Relays Outputs

Relays functions can be programmed with parameters P5.9, P5.10, P5.11 (hidden if the board
is not installed).

OPTB9: 5 Digital Inputs, 1 Relay Output

The higher value for the selection of the digital input (DI7, DI8, DI9, DI10, DI11) connected to a
certain logical function is set to 11. Relay functions can be programmed with parameter P5.9
(hidden if the board is not installed).

OPTBF: 1 Analogue Output, 1 Digital Output, 1 Relay Output

The analogue output can be programmed with parameters P6.5 - 8. The digital output can be
programmed with parameter P5.12. The relay output can be programmed with parameter
P5.9. Parameters are hidden if the board is not installed.

OPTBH: 3 temperature sensors

When the board is installed, the specific menu G13 is visible. Temperature measurement can
be used to set a digital/relay output and/or to trigger a fault. It can also be used as direct fre­quency reference or as actual value for PID regulation.

OPTBK: 4 ASi Outputs, 4 ASi Inputs

ASi outputs are managed as 4 optional digital inputs (DI7, DI8, DI9, DI10). The higher value for
the selection of the digital input connected to a certain logical function is set to 10.

(board OPTE7).

OPTCI: Modbus TCP fieldbus board

Vacon 20CP/X frequency converters can be connected to Ethernet using an Ethernet fieldbus
board OPTCI. Every appliance connected to an Ethernet network has two identifiers; a MAC ad­dress and an IP address. The MAC address (Address format: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ) is unique to the
appliance and cannot be changed. The Ethernet board's MAC address can be found on the
sticker attached to the board or by using the Vacon IP tool software NCIPConfig. Please find
the software installation at www.vacon.com. In a local network, IP addresses can be defined by
the user as long as all units connected to the network are given the same network portion of
the address. For more information about IP addresses, contact your Network Administrator.
Overlapping IP addresses cause conflicts between appliances.

2.3.9 Group Protections: Menu PAR G9

Parameters of Motor thermal protection (P9.11 to P9.14 and P9.21-P9.22)

The motor thermal protection is to protect the motor from overheating. The drive is capable of
supplying higher than nominal current to the motor. If the load requires this high current there
is a risk that the motor will be thermally overloaded. This is the case especially at low frequen­cies. At low frequencies the cooling effect of the motor is reduced as well as its capacity. If the
motor is equipped with an external fan the load reduction at low speeds is small.

The motor thermal protection is based on a calculated model and it uses the output current of
the drive to determine the load on the motor.

The motor thermal protection can be adjusted with parameters. The thermal current I

T

speci­fies the load current above which the motor is overloaded. This current limit is a function of the
output frequency.

The thermal stage of the motor can be monitored on the control keypad display. See chapter 1.

Parameters of Stall protection (P9.4 to P9.6)

The motor stall protection protects the motor from short time overload situations such as one
caused by a stalled shaft. The reaction time of the stall protection can be set shorter than that
of motor thermal protection. The stall state is defined with two parameters, P9.5 (

Stall time)

and P9.6 (

Stall frequency limit). If the current is as high as the P1.5 (Current Limit) and the cur-

rent limiter has reduced the output frequency below the P9.6 for the time P9.5 than the set limit
the stall state is true. There is actually no real indication of the shaft rotation. Stall protection
is a type of overcurrent protection.

Parameters of Underload protection (P9.7 to P9.10)

The purpose of the motor underload protection is to ensure that there is load on the motor
when the drive is running. If the motor loses its load there might be a problem in the process,
e.g. a broken belt or a dry pump.

Motor underload protection can be adjusted by setting the underload curve with parameters
P9.8 (Underload protection: Field weakening area load) and P9.9 (

Underload protection: Zero

frequency load

), see below. The underload curve is a squared curve set between the zero fre­quency and the field weakening point. The protection is not active below 5Hz (the underload
time counter is stopped).

If you use long motor cables (max. 100m) together with small drives (≤1.5 kW) the
motor current measured by the drive can be much higher than the actual motor
current due to capacitive currents in the motor cable. Consider this when setting up
the motor thermal protection functions.

The calculated model does not protect the motor if the airflow to the motor is
reduced by blocked air intake grill. The model starts from zero if the control board is
powered off.

If you use long motor cables (max. 100m) together with small drives (≤1.5 kW) the
motor current measured by the drive can be much higher than the actual motor
current due to capacitive currents in the motor cable. Consider this when setting up
the motor thermal protection functions.

vacon • 27 Description of Groups

2

The torque values for setting the underload curve are set in percentage which refers to the
nominal torque of the motor. The motor's name plate data, parameter motor nominal current
and the drive's nominal current I

L

are used to find the scaling ratio for the internal torque val­ue. If other than nominal motor is used with the drive, the accuracy of the torque calculation
decreases.

If you use long motor cables (max. 100m) together with small drives (≤1.5 kW) the
motor current measured by the drive can be much higher than the actual motor
current due to capacitive currents in the motor cable. Consider this when setting up
the motor thermal protection functions.

3.2 Advanced settings

P2.1 START/STOP LOGIC

These logics are based on Start sign 1 and Start sign 2 signals (defined with P4.1 and P4.2).
Usually they are coupled to inputs DIN1 and DIN2.

Values 0...3 offer possibilities to control the starting and stopping of the AC drive with digital
signal connected to digital inputs.

The selections including the text 'edge' shall be used to exclude the possibility of an uninten­tional start when, for example, power is connected, re-connected after a power failure, after a
fault reset, after the drive is stopped by Run Enable (Run Enable = False) or when the control
place is changed to I/O control. The Start/Stop contact must be opened before the motor can

be started.

The used stop mode is

Coasting in all examples.

Selection

number

Selection name Description

0Coasting

The motor is allowed to stop on its own inertia. The control
by the drive is discontinued and the drive current drops to
zero as soon as the stop command is given.

1Ramp

After the Stop command, the speed of the motor is deceler­ated according to the set deceleration parameters to zero
speed.

P2.8 PRESET SPEED 1 TO 7

You can use the preset frequency parameters to define certain frequency references in ad­vance. These references are then applied by activating/inactivating digital inputs connected to
parameters P4.8, P4.9 and P4.10 (binary code). The values of the preset frequencies are auto­matically limited between the minimum and maximum frequencies.

P2.13 S RAMP SHAPE 1

When value is greater than zero, acceleration and deceleration ramps have a S shape. The pa­rameter is the time needed to reach full acc/dec.

The start and end of acceleration and deceleration ramps can be smoothed with this parame­ter. Setting value 0 gives a linear ramp shape which causes acceleration and deceleration to
act immediately to the changes in the reference signal.

Setting value 0.1…10 seconds for this parameter produces an S-shaped acceleration/deceler­ation. The acceleration time is determined with parameters P1.3 and P1.4.

Figure 9. Acceleration/deceleration (S-shaped).

These parameters are used to reduce mechanical erosion and current spikes when the refer­ence is changed.

P2.26 S RAMP SHAPE 2

When value is greater than zero, acceleration and deceleration ramps have a S shape. The pa­rameter is the time needed to reach full acc/dec.

The start and end of acceleration and deceleration ramps can be smoothed with this parame­ter. Setting value 0 gives a linear ramp shape which causes acceleration and deceleration to
act immediately to the changes in the reference signal.

Setting value 0.1…10 seconds for this parameter produces an S-shaped acceleration/deceler­ation. The acceleration time is determined with parameters P2.9 and P2.10.

(from voltage P8.7 at 0Hz, to voltage P8.3 at P8.2 frequency)

The voltage of the motor changes from zero point voltage P8.7 following a squared curve form
from zero to the field weakening point P8.3. The motor runs under-magnetized below the field
weakening point and produces less torque. Squared U/f ratio can be used in applications where
torque demand is proportional to the square of the speed, e.g. in centrifugal fans and pumps.

The U/f curve can be programmed with three different points: Zero frequency voltage (P1),
Midpoint voltage/frequency (P2) and Field weakening point (P3).

Programmable U/f curve can be used if more torque is needed at low frequencies. The optimal
settings can automatically be achieved with Motor identification run.

P9.14 MOTOR THERMAL TIME CONSTANT

Time at nominal current, to reach nominal temperature.

The time constant is the time within which the calculated thermal stage has reached 63% of its
final value. The bigger the frame and/or slower the speed of the motor, the longer the time
constant.

The motor thermal time is specific to the motor design and it varies between different motor
manufacturers. The default value of the parameter varies from size to size.

If the motor's t6-time (t6 is the time in seconds the motor can safely operate at six times the
rated current) is known (given by the motor manufacturer) the time constant parameter can be
set basing on it. As a rule of thumb, the motor thermal time constant in minutes equals to 2*t6.
If the drive is in stop stage the time constant is internally increased to three times the set pa­rameter value. The cooling in stop stage is based on convection and the time constant is in­creased.

P12.11 PID ERROR LIMIT

If lower than 100%, determines a limit on max error. Useful to avoid excessive reaction at mo­tor startup.

P12.12 S

LEEP FREQUENCY

This function will put the drive into sleep mode if the setpoint is reached and the output fre­quency stays below the sleep frequency for a longer time than that set with the Sleep Delay
(P12.13). This means that the start command remains on, but the run request is turned off.
When the PID error value goes below, or above, the wake-up level depending on the set acting
mode (P12.10) the drive will activate the run request again if the start command is still on.

P12.13 S

LEEP TIME DELAY

Time of working at minimum frequency, before entering sleep condition.

P12.14 W

AKE UP LIMIT

The drive exits from sleep if the error exceeds this value. Direction of regulation (P12.10) is in­ternally considered.

P12.15 S

LEEP SETPOINT BOOST

P12.16 SLEEP BOOST TIME

P12.17 SLEEP MAX LOSS

P12.18 SLEEP LOSS CHECK TIME

These parameters manage a more complex sleep sequence. After the time in P12.13, the set­point is increased of the term in P12.15, for the time in P12.16. This will cause an higher output
frequency. Frequency reference is then forced at minimum frequency and the feedback value
is sampled.

If the variation on actual value stays then lower than P12.17 for the time in P12.18, the drive
will enter sleep condition.

If this sequence is not needed, program P12.15=0%, P12.16=0s, P12.17=50%, P12.18=1s.
