Vacon PPT 2
The Keypad: exercise 1

• Running the Startup Wizard

● Configure the drive for control through I/O
● Use standard application
● Name plate data
● Un = 230V AC
● In = 0,4A
● fn = 60Hz
● Cos phi = 0,7
● nn = 1560 rpm

The Keypad: exercise 2

• Search and set

● Acceleration in 6s (0 - Max speed)
● Deceleration in 3s (Max speed - 0)
● Stop by ramping (P3.2.5)
● Activate the Motor Switch function (P3.1.2.6)

Vacon PPT 4
The Keypad: exercise 3

• Local Control
● Switch from remote to local control with FUNCT

● Change the content of the monitor values on the
control page
● Motor Current -> Motor Voltage

Vacon PPT 5
The Keypad: exercise 4

• PID Control
● Set the drive up for PID control
by using the application
selection parameter (P1.2)
● Setpoint from AI1 (0..10V)
Feedback from AI2(0..20mA)
● Process units in bar. Sensor
range 0…10bar.
● No sleep function

Vacon PPT 6
The Keypad: exercise 5

• Trend Curves
● Plot the trends for PID Setpoint and Feedback values
● The Trend Curves can be found in the Monitor Menu
● PID1 Setpoint & PID1 Feedback
● Use autoscale

Vacon PPT 7
Vacon Live & Loader

Drive Customizer: Demo

• Start from AI1

● The drive is controlled from I/O
● Frequency reference is given by analog input (AI1)
● The drive is started when the AI1 signal exceeds 5%
level and stopped when the signal goes below 4%
level.
