3-1 Uploading and Downloading Parameters

Before inverter parameters can be uploaded or downloaded, the inverter product type must be selected, and the inverter must be connected, or brought online, with the InverterWin software. See Chapter 2 for more information on Operation Online.

Inverter parameters may be uploaded from the inverter or downloaded to the inverter. Once parameters are uploaded to the PC, they may be saved, printed, or downloaded at any time.

! Uploading Parameters to the PC

When the inve rter is brought onlin e, the initial param eter values will be uploaded to the PC. To upload new parameters to the PC, first determine if only a single parameter should be read or if all parameters are needed. Click on or Parameters > Read All for all parameters. Click on or Parameters > Read for individual parameters,

If single read is or individual parameter is selected, only the highlighted parameter will be read. Otherwise, all parameters will be read and updated. If all parameters are read, then the progress screen will be displayed. If single read is selected, the progress screen will not appear.

! Downloading Parameters to the Inverter

To download parameters to the Inverter, first determine if only a single parameter should be sent or if all parameters are needed. Click on or Parameters > Send for individual parameters, or click on Parameters > Send All for all parameters.

If single send is selected, only the highlighted parameter will be sent to the inverter and updated in that inverter. Otherwise, all parameters will be sent to the inverter and upda ted.

3-2 Opening an Existing Parameter File

To open an existing file for the current inverter product click on the file open icon or select File >Open File from the menu. The window in Figure. 3.1 will appear.

Click on the file to be opened, and click on Open, or double-click on the file to be opened. To change the inverter product file to be selected, click on the down arrow in the Files of type window. A drop-down selection menu will appear. Click on the appropriate inverter product to continue.

To find a parameter data file that is not in the current directory, click on the down arrow in the Look in window. Choose the proper directory, using the mouse. Double-click on the desired directory to continue.

InverterWin 3.00 uses .P5P file extension instead of .P5 that was used in InverterWin2.12. The file contents are identical. To open an older .P5

Multiple functions can be traced at any point. Up to eight monitors may be used. Different line colors would be used to track different monitors. See Figure 3.6 for a sample setup window.

Click on the Graph Setup button or View > Graph Setup on the toolbar to alter the appearance of the graph. Graph # tabs are used to set up multiple monitors. Click on the down arrow in the Trace Selection window to choose a function to track. Select a function from the drop-down list to continue. Line Color may be chosen by the user or by software default. Line Thickness may be selected to highlight certain monitors as necessary, or to make them easier to see. The Scale Factor adjusts the scaling of the graphed variable. 100 means that if the inverter variable is at full scale the trace displayed will be 100%.

TM.IW.01

After the trace selection has been made, click on OK to display the trace selections next to the graph.

Note!

Figure 3.6: Graph Setup

The InverterWin software remembers the selections on the graph setup by inverter type. However, ever time the graph function is used for the first time after going online with the inverter, each tab of the graph setup window that you wish to graph will have to be selected by clicking on the tab to activate that graph function.

TM.IW.01

Once monitor mode is enabled and trace selection is completed, a screen similar to Figure

3.7 will appear:

To begin graphing inverter operation click on the Start button beside the graph. The graph will begin accumulating information and tracking from right to left. Each colored tracking line represents one of the items to be monitored. Take care not to use the same color for more than one item, or the graph could become confusing. The monitor items that are being graphed appear on the right hand side of the graphing window. The color of the text matches the graph trace color. The number to the right of the colored text shows the current value of the monitored variable being graphed. When the graph is stopped, the values will freeze, i.e. they are only updated while the graph is running.

! Adjusting the Scale & Timeline

When the graph is tracking, the scale may be adjusted by “pulling” on the anchors on the X and Y axes. See Figure 3.8 for an example.

Anchors

Figure 3.8: Changing Graph Scale

To find a segment of the graph that has passed out of view, slide the anchors until the necessary information is disp layed. Pulling the anchors down or to the lef t takes the graph back to the starting point. Pulling them up or to the righ t moves the scale to the p resent poin t in time. At various points in the axes the gradients on the scale become closer together or farther apart. The effect of these variations is to give very precise views of any point in time on the graph. To print a portion of a graph, click on F

ile > Print. Only the viewable portion of the graph will be printed. Use the anchors to highlight the appropriate area of the chart, and the proper resolution.

TM.IW.01

3-7 Inverter Fault History

The InverterWin software may be used to upload the fault history of the inverter. The information held in the fault history monitor U-09 is uploaded and displayed in text form.

! Using the Fault History Feature

To activate the Inverter Fault History function, the inverter must be online (Refer to Section 2-4). Click on the Fault-History tab, and a window similar to that in Figure 3.9 will appear.

Figure 3.9: Initial Fault History Window

TM.IW.01

To retrieve the fault history information from the inverter, click on the Update button and the function will retrieve the fault history information from the inverter. A screen similar to Figure 3.10 will appear. To refresh the information, click on the Update button again.

TM.IW.01

3-8 Monitoring I n ve rter Operation

The InverterWin software may be used to monitor status of the inverter at any point while it is online. Many of the inverter monitor parameters available from the inverter keypad can be monitored from InverterWin. The monitor function, when activated, opens a new window on the left side of the screen that is always visible when the monitor mode is active.

! Using the Monitor Feature

To use the monitor function, please follow this procedur e:

1. Go online with the inverter.

2. Go to the menu and click on Operations > S monitor function. A window with the monitored pa rameters will appear on the left

tart Monitor/Status to activate the

hand side of the screen (Figure 3.11). The monitor configuration icon become active, indicating that the monitored parameters can be changed.

3. If you are using the monitor function for the first time or there are no monitor parameters selected, the window that opens up on the left side will be blank (See Figure 3.13).

4. Click on the enable button for each monitor parameter to start/stop the polling of each monitor parameter. The button toggles in and out to turn off or on that monitor parameter (Figure 3.12).
