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.
1.1Specific 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 expansion.

2.3.9Group Protections: Menu PAR G9
NOTE!
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
fies 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.
Visibility of the group depends on P1.16.
speci-
T
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.
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 (
and P9.6 (
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 (
frequency load
Stall frequency limit). If the current is as high as the P1.5 (Current Limit) and the cur-
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.

quency and the field weakening point. The protection is not active below 5Hz (the underload
time counter is stopped).
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
are used to find the scaling ratio for the internal torque val-
L
ue. 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.

P2.1 START/STOPLOGIC
These logics are based on Start sgn1 and Start sgn 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

Figure 8. Start/Stop logic = 3.
Start sgn 1 activates causing the output frequency to rise. The motor runs forward.
Start sgn 2 activates causing the motor drops to
0. Warning 55 appears on the keypad.
Start sgn 1 is inactivated which causes the direction to start changing (FWD to REV) because
Start sgn 2 is still active.
Start sgn 2 inactivates and the frequency fed to
the motor drops to 0.
Start sgn 2 activates again causing the motor to
accelerate (REV) towards the set frequency.
Start sgn 2 inactivates and the frequency fed to
the motor drops to 0.
Start sgn 1 activates and the motor accelerates
7
(FWD) towards the set frequency
Run enable signal is set to FALSE, which drops
8
the frequency to 0. The run enable signal is configured with parameter P4.7.
Run enable signal is set to TRUE, which, unlike if
value 0 is selected for this parameter, has no
9
effect because rising edge is required to start
even if Start sgn 1 is active.
Keypad stop button is pressed and the frequency
10
fed to the motor drops to 0. (This signal only
works if P2.22 Keypad stop button = Yes)
Start sgn 1 is opened and closed again which
11
causes the motor to start.
Start sgn 1 inactivates and the frequency fed to

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.

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),

P9.14 MOTORTHERMALTIMECONSTANT
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.

This function will put the drive into sleep mode if the setpoint is reached and the output frequency stays below the sleep limit 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

(P12.10) the drive will activate the run request again if the start command is still on.

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.

Check cables and connections.
Make identification run.
Check ramp times.
Make deceleration time longer.
Use brake chopper or brake resistor (available as options).
Activate overvoltage controller.
Check input voltage.
Check motor cables and motor.
Reset the fault and restart.
Should the fault re-occur, contact
the distributor near to you.
In case of temporary supply voltage break reset the fault and
restart the AC drive. Check the
supply voltage. If it is adequate, an
internal failure has occurred.
Contact the distributor near to
you.
Check supply voltage, fuses and
cable.
Check the ambient temperature.
Check the correct amount and
flow of cooling air.
Check the heatsink for dust.
Check the ambient temperature.
