Powering on the Drive for the First Time

Performing a "First Setup"

A "First Setup" is required when the 24 Vdc control supply of the drive is powered on for the first time or after the factory settings have been restored.

Automatic Reading of the Motor Data Record

When the drive is powered on and if an encoder is connected to CN3, the drive automatically reads the electronic nameplate from the Hiperface encoder. The data record is verified and written to the nonvolatile memory.

The data record contains technical information on the motor such as nominal torque and peak torque, nominal current, nominal velocity and number of pole pairs. The data record cannot be modified by the user.

Manual Adjustment of the Motor Parameters

If the motor encoder is not connected to CN3, the motor parameters must be adjusted manually. Refer to the information in the user guide for the encoder modules.

Preparation

If the drive is not to be commissioned exclusively via the HMI, a PC with the commissioning software must be connected.

Powering On the Drive

  • Verify that the power stage supply and the 24 Vdc control supply are powered off.

  • Disconnect the product from the fieldbus during commissioning in order to help avoid conflicts by simultaneous access.

  • Power on the 24 Vdc control supply.

    The drive goes through an initialization routine. The segments of the 7-segment display and the status LEDs illuminate.

If a memory card is in the slot of the drive, the message (CARD) is displayed by the 7-segment display for a short period of time. This indicates that a memory card has been detected. If the message (CARD) is permanently displayed by the 7-segment display, there are differences between the content of the memory card and the parameter values stored in the drive. See section Memory Card for additional information.

Fieldbus Interface

After the initialization, the fieldbus interface must be configured. You must assign a unique network address to each device.

  • Enter the network address. The network address is stored in the parameter SercosAddress.

If modules are inserted, you must make additional settings depending on the module. Make these settings as described in the appropriate manuals for the modules.

Restarting the Drive

Depending on the settings of the parameters, a restart of the drive may be required for the modifications to become effective.

  • If the HMI shows (RDY) the drive is ready for operation.

  • If the HMI shows (nRDY) a restart of the drive is required. After the restart, the drive is ready for operation.

Identifying the Drive

The SERCOS function "IdentifyDevice" allows for identification of a slave in the control cabinet.

The function "IdentifyDevice" causes the LED SIII to flash. See section Fieldbus Status LEDs for more information on the LEDs.

The function "IdentifyDevice" requires that communication (CP2 ... CP4) has been established.

Further Steps

  • Attach a label to the drive that contains information for servicing the drive such as fieldbus type and device address.

  • Make the settings described below for commissioning.

NOTE: For more information on the presentation of parameters and a list of all operational parameters of the drive, see Parameters.
