Resetting Parameters to Factory Default Settings

When the drive leaves the factory, each parameter has a default setting value associated to it. The user can return the drive to the factory default state by following the below procedure.

image2.jpeg

Note:

  • Parameters cannot be defaulted whilst P11-03=1 (parameter set locked).

  • Factory defaults can also be performed if display shows Inhibit

Resetting Parameters to User Default Settings

The current parameter settings of the drive can be stored internally within the drive as the standard default settings. This does not affect the procedure for returning the drive to factory default settings as described above.

P11-01 (Save user parameters as default) can be enabled (set to 1) to invoke a parameter save of the current parameter values as the standard

defaults for the drive, USR-PS will be shown to indicate a successful save.

The user can recall User default settings by following the below procedure.

image2.jpeg

Note:

  • Parameters cannot be defaulted whilst P11-03=1 (parameter set locked).

  • User defaults can also be performed if display shows Inhibit

Showing Difference from defaults.

Difference from default values can be shown by setting parameter P0-00 (Show Difference from defaults) to a value of 1, once set only the parameters which have been changed by the user will be displayed.

Drive Operating Displays

Status

Stop

Drive mains power applied, but no Enable or Run signal applied

Auto-tx

Motor Autotune in progress. x indicates which autotune is being performed

H x.x

Drive running, display shows output frequency (Hz)

Whilst the drive is running, the following displays can be selected by briefly pressing the mode button on the drive.

Each press of the image17.emf button will cycle the display through to the next selection.

R H_H

Drive running, display shows motor Speed in rpm providing P4-06 (Motor Rated speed) value has been entered, if not entered then this Display status is skipped

A x.x

Drive running, display shows motor current (Amps)

P x.x

Drive Running, display shows motor power (kW)

L x.x

Drive Running, display shows motor speed in linear units (e.g. m/s or ft/s). P3-08 (Sheave diameter), P3-09 (Roping Ratio) , P3-10 (Gear Ratio), P4-06 (Motor rated speed) must be set correctly.

C x.x

Drive Running, display shows customer selected units, see parameters P11-11 and 11-12

Up H_H

dn H_H

When in rescue mode (With encoder) the direction of travel can be displayed, it is assumed that when a run up (forward) command (e.g. terminal 2 closed) is given the motor rotates clockwise (looking at the motor with the sheave facing you).

Etl-24

Drive mains power not present, external 24 Volt control power supply present only

Inhibt

Output power hardware inhibited, Safe Torque Off function activated. Both STO inputs need to be high to take the drive out of this state, this is normally part of the system safety chain.

P-def

Parameters reset to factory default settings

U-def

Parameters reset to User default settings (P11-01=1)

USB C

Drives is powered from the USB-C port

USB P

Drives is powered from the USB-C port, but data transfer is disabled (P2-13=0)

Fault messages can be found in section 22.1

Elevator Specific Linear Units

The drive provides the user with the option to operate the drive in elevator units e.g. m/s, the drive calculates the value internally providing the correct values are entered into the below parameters.

To enable this feature the user must program the following parameters:

  • Motor Rated Speed (P4-06)

  • Sheave Diameter (P3-08) (<100 drive assumes inches)/(>100 drive assumes mm)

  • Roping Ratio (P3-09)

  • Gear Ratio for Geared (Induction) systems (P3-10)

  • P3-11 to set the units.

Note: If P4-06 and P3-08 are zero then the function is inactive.

Once the above parameters are programmed the user can view the real time travel speed by pressing the image17.emf button until “L“ is shown in the left side of the display, this is further detailed in section 11.7.
