System Design
The 590+ Series Converter is designed for use in a suitable enclosure, with associated control
equipment. The unit accepts a variety of standard three-phase ac supply voltages depending
upon the model, and is suitable for the powering of DC shunt field and permanent magnet
motors, providing controlled dc output voltage and current for armature and field.
All units are designed for simple and economical panel mounting using keyhole slots. Plug-in
control connectors simplify the fitting and removal of the unit to the panel.
Where possible, standard parts are used throughout the range thereby reducing the variety of
spare parts required to maintain a multi-drive system. For example, the same basic control
boards are used in all types of three-phase armature controller regardless of horsepower or
bridge configuration.
The control circuit is totally isolated from the power circuit thus simplifying the interconnection
of controllers within a system and improving operator safety. The coding circuitry adjusts
automatically to accept supply frequencies between 45-65Hz and possesses high immunity to
supply-borne interference. The armature controllers are phase rotation insensitive.
Control and Communications
The Converter is controlled by a 16 bit Microcontroller providing advanced features such as:
Complex control algorithms which are not achievable by simple analog techniques.
Software-configurable control circuitry built around standard software blocks.
Serial link communications with other drives or a PC for advanced process systems.
The Operator Station gives access to parameters, diagnostic messages, trip settings and full
application programming.
Regenerative and Non-Regenerative Models
The motor armature controllers include both regenerative and non-regenerative models:
Regenerative controllers consist of two fully-controlled thyristor bridges and a field bridge
with full transient and overload protection, together with sophisticated electronic control of
acceleration and deceleration, speed and torque in both directions of rotation.
Non-regenerative controllers consist of one fully-controlled thyristor bridge and a field
bridge with full transient and overload protection, together with its associated electronic
control circuitry, and provide accurate speed and/or torque control in one selected direction
of rotation.
Field Regulator
A field regulator is fitted as standard. The regulator consists of a full-wave half controlled single
phase thyristor bridge with transient and overload protection. It provides either a fixed voltage
or fixed current source, depending upon the selected mode of operation for constant torque
applications. The field current mode of operation can be further enhanced to provide field
weakening for drive control motors which require extended speed or constant horsepower
control.

AN OVERVIEW OF THE CONVERTER

How it Works
Note: Refer to Chapter 9: Control Loops for a more detailed explanation.
In very simple terms, the Converter controls the dc motor with the use of Control Loops - an
inner Current Loop and an outer Speed Loop. These control loops can be seen in the
Application Block Diagram. The block diagram shows all the Converters software connections.
Using the Operator Station, you can select the control loops to be used by the Converter to
provide either:
Current Control
Speed Control (default)
It is usual to supply a Current or Speed Feedback signal to the appropriate loop for more
effective control of the Converter. Current Feedback sensors are built-in, whereas Speed
Feedback is provided directly from the armature sensing circuit (default), or by tachogenerator,
encoder or Microtach connection to the relevant option board.
When in Speed Control,
you can modify the
performance of the
Converter further by
controlling the motor
field, i.e. Field Control.
By weakening the field
current, you can obtain
an increase in motor
speed beyond that
normally achievable for
the rated Armature
Voltage of the dc motor.

Mounting the Converter


Note:

General installation details are given below for mounting the Converter, however, if you
are installing the unit with an EMC filter refer to External AC Supply EMC Filter
Installation, page 3-27.
Mount the unit vertically on a solid, flat, vertical surface. It is mounted using bolts or screws
into four fixing points (keyhole slots). The design allows the use of 100mm grid fixing.
It must be mounted inside a suitable cubicle. To comply with the European safety standards
VDE 0160 (1994)/EN50178 (1998), the cubicle must require a tool for opening.

Note:

Holes for the mounting bolts or screws must be placed accurately.


Cover any units all ready mounted to the panel to protect them from stray metal filings while
drilling mounting holes.
General Mounting Hints
Insert the mounting studs from the rear of the panel. Attach lock washers and nuts part way on
to the lower mounting studs; these will help to keep the drive in place when mounting.
Caution
Use proper lifting techniques when lifting and moving.
Lift the drive and engage the bottom slots safely on to the studs between the panel and lock
washers/nuts you have just fitted. Engage the top slots with the remaining mounting studs and
finger tighten the drive to the panel with lock washers and nuts. Finally, use the socket wrench
to tighten all nuts securely.
Check the drive and its housing for packing material, mounting debris, or any other material that
could damage and/or restrict the operation of the equipment.

Ventilation and Cooling Requirements


Refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications - Cooling.
The Converter gives off heat in normal operation and must therefore be mounted to allow the
free flow of air through the air entries and exits. Maintain the minimum air clearances given on
the drawings to ensure that heat generated by other adjacent equipment is not transmitted to the
Converter. Be aware that other equipment may have its own clearance requirements. When
mounting two or more 590+s together, these clearances are cumulative.
Ensure that the mounting surface is normally cool.

Installing the Fan (Frame H)


Refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications - Cooling for fan ratings
The fan unit supplied should be installed on the cubicle, with or without ducting (refer to the
Installation Drawing). The drive is force-cooled using the fan units supplied with the drive. As a
general rule allow at least 150mm (6 inches) of clear space above and below the drive for free
air flow. We suggest the cubicle has an air inlet at the base of the cubicle equivalent to 4ft,
variable depending upon the filter type used, to allow the maximum throughput of air.
The fan assembly provided is permanently wired as shown below.

AC Line Choke
We recommend that you always use the specified ac line choke with the Converter
to provide a known supply impedance for effective operation of the thyristor transient
suppression circuits. At least 1% line impedance should be provided in the supply side of the
converter.
Refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications - AC Line Choke for selection details.

Filtering
Note:

Refer to Chapter 12: "Certification for the Drive" - European Directives and the CE Mark.
For compliance in Europe with EN61800-3 Table 11:

The CE marking of drives whose armature current >100A is applicable without


filtering.

The CE marking of drives whose armature current <100A is only applicable with
filtering. The drive requires one of the following:
1.

The specified filter given in Chapter 11

If the controller is to be operating in a regenerating mode for extended periods acting as a load
generator for another machine, it is advisable to fit additional protection in the armature circuit.
A dc fuse or high speed circuit breaker will provide this protection. If in doubt, contact SSD
Drives.

Cable Gland Requirements


Use a metal gland to
connect to the cubicle
backplate, near the
VSD (variable speed
drive). It must be
capable of securing a
360 degree screened
connection to give
EMC compliance. A
360 degree screened
connection can be
achieved as shown.
We suggest a rubber
grommet should be
fitted on holes where a
cable gland is not used.

Minimum Connection Requirements


IMPORTANT: If in doubt about the connection of the DC motor to the drive, contact SSD Drives.
Note: Because of the complexity of showing all possible configurations, this Chapter deals only
with a `general purpose operation as a basic speed controller. Special wiring options
usually form part of a customer-specific system and connection details will be provided
separately.
Minimum connections to operate the drive safely are shown using bold lines in the
following circuit diagrams. These connections are highlighted in text with the
symbol opposite. The remaining connections are not necessary for a quick startup.
The Converter is using the default Armature Voltage feedback when following the
`minimum connection instructions.

WARNING!
Power terminals carry electrical voltage which can be lethal. Never work on any
control equipment or motors without first removing all power supplies from the
equipment.

Caution
Make sure all wiring connections meet or exceed applicable local and National Electrical
Codes. Be sure to fit branch circuit and motor overload protection.

IMPORTANT: If fitting your own "Power On" indicator lamp, annunciator, etc., this should be switched
by an auxiliary contactor of the main contactor, not by the controller auxiliary relay.
To avoid damaging the drive NEVER carry out high voltage resistance or dielectric
strength tests without first completely disconnecting the drive from the circuit being tested.

Power Cables
Note:

Refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications - Wire Sizes and Termination Tightening
Torques.

minimum rating of 1.1 x full load current (Europe)

minimum rating of 1.25 x full load current (UL)

Control Wiring
Note: Refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications for Control Terminal information.

Control wiring must have a minimum cross-section area of 0.75mm2 (18AWG).

Use screened control cables to comply with EMC requirements.

Feed the control cables into the drive and connect to the control terminals. Refer to the
connection label on the inside of the terminal cover. Close the terminal cover.

IMPORTANT: All connections made to terminal blocks A, B and C must be isolated signal voltages.

Important Connections
The following connections must be made for the drive to run:

Terminals TH1 and TH2 must be linked if a thermostat is not fitted.

Terminals C1 and C2 must be linked if an External Trip interlock is not required.

Monitoring Systems, page 3-28).
Also refer to Chapter 12: Certification for the Converter - Requirements for UL
Compliance.

Semi-Conductor Protection
Frame H drives contain high speed semi-conductor fuses. For all other frame sizes,
always provide high-speed thyristor fusing to protect the thyristor stack in the case of
direct output short circuits. Semiconductor fuses may be used as Branch Protection on
single-drive systems.
IMPORTANT: If a motor becomes completely short-circuited, the current trip
(OVER I TRIP) will not protect the Converter.

FILTER

(optional)

Diagram
shows

of units

The contactor does not switch current and is primarily for disconnection and sequencing
of the power bridge. It must be energised directly from the controller by a coil with a
rating suitable (AC1) for the controller concerned. No additional series contacts or
switches are permitted since they will interfere with the sequencing of the controller and
cause unreliability and possible failure. Connect to main contactor terminals Con L
and Con N only as described in Chapter 11, otherwise unreliable or dangerous
operation may occur - do not connect to a PLC input or sensitive relay.
Slave Relay : If the 3-phase contactor has a coil with an inrush greater than 3A, a slave
relay MUST be used to drive the contactor coil. The contactor and slave relay (if
required) MUST have coil voltages compatible with the controller auxiliary supply
voltage.
DO NOT use a slave relay with a coil current less than 25mA as it may be
energised by the contact suppression network.
Frames 4 & 5 : A relay jumper (CONN1) is provided on the power board enabling
terminals 3 & 4 to be powered (auxiliary supply - default position), or to be volt-free (for
customers own contactor supply). Refer to Chapter 13: AH466701U001, U002, U003
(Frames 4 & 5).
DC Contactor : A DC contactor can be used but the sequencing must be adjusted to
accomodate its use: an auxilliary normally open volt-free contact of the contactor must
be connected in series with the "ENABLE" input (C5) to disable the drive until after the
contactor is closed.

AC Line Choke
IMPORTANT: Always fit the recommended choke. Refer to Chapter 11:
Technical Specifications - AC Line Choke.
We can provide suitable chokes, designed to connect directly to the drive terminals.

Terminals Th1 and Th2 must be linked if sensors are not fitted.
(Thermistor terminals for Frames 3 & H are on the Control Door Board).
We recommend that you protect the dc motor against overtemperature by the use of
temperature sensitive resistors or switches in the field and interpole windings of the
machine. When the motor is fitted with over-temperature sensing devices, such as
thermostats or PTC thermistors, these should be connected (in series) between terminals
TH1 and TH2.
Thermistors must have a combined working resistance of 750 or less, rising to
4k at over-temperature. These thermistors are classified by IEC34-II as Mark A.

Temperature switches must be normally closed, and open at rated temperature.

The over temperature alarm will activate at 3k. It is latched in software and must be

IMPORTANT: The connection of the controller and the external field supply
must be consistent when using an externally supplied field
regulator. Always derive the 1phase, 50/60Hz supply from the
L1 (Red) and L2 (Yellow) phases of the main power supply,
directly or indirectly through a single-phase transformer, with the
Red phase connected to terminal FL1 and the Yellow phase to

permitted without consultation from SSD Drives.
Use suitable external fuse protection: the steady state current absorbed by the controller
is nominal, the external fuse is determined chiefly by considering the contactor holding
VA and the controller cooling fans. (Frame H fans are powered separately).

The "Emergency Stop" relay (normally-open, delay on de-energisation) should not be
part of the normal sequencing system which is implemented via the Start contacts, but is
a relay which can be operated in exceptional circumstances where human safety is of
paramount importance.

Removing 24V from B9 opens the main contactor via the relay

Removing 24V from B8 provides regenerative braking for 4 Quadrant 590+ drives

A regenerative drive can be stopped using a Normal Stop, a Program Stop, or an


Emergency Stop. However, a non-regenerative drive can only be made to stop faster
than friction and loading will allow by Dynamic Braking.

Terminal C5 (Enable) must be connected to C9 (+24V) to allow the drive to run.


IMPORTANT: Connection via a switch is useful to inhibit the drive without
opening the main contactor, however, it is not a safe mode of
operation as the drive dc output is only reduced to zero. If the
equipment controlled by the drive is to be serviced, then this
method should be avoided and the drive disabled and isolated.

When the single contact between C3 and C9 is closed the drive will run provided that:

B8 & B9 are TRUE (+24V) - see "Emergency Stop" above

C5 is TRUE (+24V) - see "Enable" above

When the single contact between C3 and C9 is opened the drive will decelerate the

Motor Field Options


WARNING!
Isolate the drive before converting to internal/external supply.
The FIELD CONTROL function block controls the motor field. The FLD CTRL MODE
parameter allows you to select either Voltage or Current Control mode.
In Voltage Control mode, the RATIO OUT/IN parameter is used to scale the motor field
output voltage as a percentage of the input supply voltage.
In Current Control mode, the SETPOINT parameter is used to set an absolute motor field
output current, expressed as a percentage of the calibrated field current (IF CAL).

Internal/External Supply (Frames 2, 3, 4 & 5)


Note: The Frame 1 unit uses only an internal motor field supply. The Frame H unit uses only an
external motor field supply. For information about the following terminal/power boards
refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications - Power Board Types, and Terminal
Information (Power Board).
The internal motor field is more widely used, however, there is provision on the unit for an
external motor field supply to be connected (perhaps for where the field voltage is greater than
the input voltage and therefore not attainable, or where the motor field is switched separately for
convenience).

Internal Motor Field (default for this board)


Terminals F+ and F-, the motor field outputs, are energised when the 3-phase supply is
connected to L1/L2/L3. Terminals FL1 and FL2 are not required. The internal motor field
supply is fused by 10A fuses, FS5 & FS6.
External Motor Field
Terminals FL1 and FL2 can be used for external ac supply connection for the Motor Field
Supply. You should provide suitably rated external, fast-acting semi-conductor fusing, to a
maximum of 10A.
Caution
When using an external ac input it is important to have the correct phase relationship on
the terminals. The supply must be derived from L1 (Red) and L2 (Yellow) phases directly
or indirectly through a single-phase transformer.
L1 must be connected to FL1, and L2 connected to FL2.
The external field supply can now be connected and power restored to the drive.

External AC Supply EMC Filter Installation


Refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications - Environmental Details, and External AC
Supply (RFI) Filters and Line Choke for selection details.
A filter is used with the Converter to reduce the line conducted emissions produced by the
Converter. Filters are used in parallel on the higher current Converters. When installed correctly
and used with the specified 2% minimum line chokes, conformance with EN55011 Class A can
be achieved (suitable for both generic environments: RF Emission and Immunity).

Cubicle-Mounting the 590+ Converter with Filter


WARNING!
Do not touch filter terminals or cabling for at least 3 minutes after removing the
ac supply.
Only use the ac supply filter with a permanent earth connection.
The filter should be fitted on the mains side of the contactor.
The Converter must be mounted vertically on a solid, flat, vertical surface. It must be installed
into a cubicle.
The recommended EMC filter is mounted to the left, right, above, below, or spaced behind the
Converter. It can be mounted flat against the surface, or projecting out from the surface if the
filter type has side fixings.
1. Mount the filter securely at the four fixing points (flat or on its side).
2. Mount the Converter next to the filter, allowing for the required airgap between the
Converter, the filter and any adjacent equipment.

Connection Details
The connection between the Converter, choke and filter must always be as short as possible and
must be segregated from all other cables. Ideally, mount the filter and choke onto the same
metallic panel as the Converter. Take care not to obstruct any ventilation spacing.
If this cable/busbar exceeds 0.6m (2 feet) in length, it must be replaced with a
screened/armoured cable. The screen/armour must be earthed at both the filter, choke and
Converter ends with large-area contact surfaces, preferably with metal cable glands.
You should enhance the RF connection between the Converter, choke, filter and panel as
follows:
1. Remove any paint/insulation between the mounting points of the EMC filter, choke,
Converter and the panel. Liberally apply petroleum jelly over the mounting points and
securing threads. This will prevent corrosion. Alternatively, conducting paint could be used
on the panel.
2. If 1 above is not possible, then improve the RF earth bond between the filter and Converter
by making an additional RF earth connection. Use wire braid of at least 10mm crosssectional area.
Note: Metal surfaces, such as anodised or yellow chromed (with cable mounting or 35mm DIN
rails, screws and bolts) have a high impedance which can be very detrimental to EMC
performance.
3. A low RF impedance path must be provided between the motor frame and back panel on
which the drive, choke and EMC filters are mounted. This low impedance RF path should
follow the path of the motor cables in order to minimise the loop area. Failure to do so will
result in increased conducted emissions.
A low RF impedance path will normally be achieved by:
Bonding the armour of the motor supply cables at one end to the motor frame, and at the
590+ Series DC Digital Converter

3-28

Installing the Converter


other end to the cubicle back panel. Ideally 360o bonding is required, which can be achieved
with cable glands, refer to Figure 3-7 360 Degree Screened Connection, page 3-7.
Ensuring that conduit containing the motor supply cables are bonded together using braid.
The conduit should also be bonded to the motor frame and the cubicle back panel.
Earthing Details
The protective earth (PE) conductor exiting the filter must be connected to the protective earth
connection of the Converter. Any additional RF earth, such as a cable screen, is not a
protective earth. The EMC filter must be permanently earthed to prevent the risk of electric
shock under abnormal operating instances (such as the loss of one phase of the ac supply).
You can achieve permanent earthing by either:
using a copper protective earth conductor of at least 10mm
installing a second conductor, in parallel connection with the protective conductor, to a
separate protective earth terminal
Each conductor must independently meet the requirements for a protective earth conductor.

Operating Conditions
The recommended EMC filters operate from normal three-phases supplies which are balanced
with respect to earth (earth referenced supplies - TN). This minimises the earth leakage current
due to the filter capacitors between phase and earth.
IMPORTANT: We do not recommend the use of ac supply filters on non earth-referenced supplies - IT.
The supplies cause earth leakage currents to increase, and interfere with the operation of
earth fault monitoring equipment. In addition, EMC performance of the filter is
degraded.
As with all power electronic drives, conducted emissions increase with motor cable length.
EMC conformance is only guaranteed up to a cable length of 50m. The cable length can be
increased. Refer to SSD Drives for more information.

Earth Fault Monitoring Systems


WARNING!
Circuit breakers used with VSDs and other similar equipment are not suitable for
personnel protection. Use another means to provide personal safety. Refer to
EN50178 (1998) / VDE0160 (1994) / EN60204-1 (1994)
We do not recommend the use of circuit breakers (e.g. RCD, ELCB, GFCI), but where their use
is mandatory, they should:

Operate correctly with dc and ac protective earth currents (i.e. type B RCDs as in
Amendment 2 of IEC755).

Have adjustable trip amplitude and time characteristics to prevent nuisance tripping on
switch-on.

Note: When the ac supply is switched on, a pulse of current flows to earth to charge the EMC
filter internal capacitors which are connected between phase and earth. This has been
minimised in SSD Drives filters, but may still trip out any circuit breaker in the earth
system. In addition, high frequency and dc components of earth leakage currents will
flow under normal operating conditions. Under certain fault conditions larger dc
protective earth currents may flow. The protective function of some circuit breakers cannot
be guaranteed under such operating conditions.

Pre-Operation Checks
Initial checks before applying power:
Mains power supply voltage is correct.
Auxiliary power supply voltage is correct.
Motor is of correct armature voltage and current rating.
Check all external wiring circuits - power, control, motor and earth connections.
Note: Completely disconnect the Converter before point-to-point checking with a buzzer, or
when checking insulation with a Megger.
Check for damage to equipment.
Check for loose ends, clippings, drilling swarf etc. lodged in the Converter and system.
If possible check that the motor can be turned freely, and that any cooling fans are intact and
free from obstruction.
Ensure the safety of the complete system before the Converter is energised:
Ensure that rotation of the motor in either direction will not cause damage.
Ensure that nobody else is working on another part of the system which will be affected by
powering up.
Ensure that other equipment will not be adversely affected by powering up.
Prepare to energise the Converter and system as follows:
Remove the main external HRC fuses to prevent the main 3-phase and single phase auxiliary
supply from being connected.
Disconnect the load from the motor shaft, if possible.
If any of the Converters control terminals are not being used, check whether these unused
terminals need to be tied high or low. Refer to Chapter 11: Technical SpecificationsControl Terminals.
If there is any doubt about the integrity of a particular installation, insert a high wattage
resistor, i.e. fire elements, in series with the motor armature.
Check external run contacts are open.
Check external speed setpoints are all zero.

Local or Remote Start/Stop decides how you will start and stop the Converter.

Local or Remote Speed Control determines how you will control the motor speed.

In each case, Local and Remote control are offered by using the following:
Local:

The Operator Station

Remote: Analog and digital inputs and outputs, System Port P3 or the Technology Option
Thus the Converter can operate in two modes:

DEFAULT

The default is for the L/R key to be set for Remote control, i.e. both the SEQ and REF LEDs will
be off.

If the default Remote Start/Stop and Speed Control is not suitable for your application, follow
the instructions below using the Operator Station or a suitable PC programming tool to select
Local Start/Stop and Speed Control.
Note: You can only change between Local and Remote control when the Converter is
stopped.
The L/R key on the Operator Station toggles between Local and Remote control, changing both
Start/Stop and Speed Control modes at the same time.

LED Indications
The mode of control is indicated by the

Setting-up the Converter


The following start-up routine assumes that the Operator Station is fitted and is in default mode,
and that the Converters control terminals are wired as shown in the Minimum Connection
diagrams in Chapter 3.
The following instructions are written in logical order. Complete each stage successfully
before progressing to the next.

Calibrating the Control Board


AUXILIARY POWER ONLY IS CONNECTED AT THIS STAGE
You must first calibrate the Converter for use with the motor.
Connect the auxiliary power supply to auxiliary supply terminals L &
N (Frame 3: Terminals L & N = D8 & D7), but do not connect the
main 3-phase power supply at this stage. Check that the correct voltage
appears between these terminals.
The Operator Station will now display the Welcome screen, and the
Health and Overcurrent Trip Operator Station LEDs will be illuminated
(assuming that the Converters control terminals are wired as shown in
Figure 3-4, Minimum Connection Requirements).
Note:

The CONFIGURE DRIVE menu at the top of the menu tree contains
many of the important parameters used during set-up.

Calculate the tacho voltage by multiplying the required maximum speed by the tacho calibration
factor, e.g. motor speed 1500 rpm and tacho calibration factor 60V per 1000 rpm is 90V.
The tacho calibration volts are set using the 2 in-line switches (10-way). The switches set Volts
in units and tens. The hundreds are set by the 1-way switch. The illustration above shows a
setting of 90V. When setting switches for AC tachos, calibrate the switches for 2 x voltage
feedback required, i.e. 2 x 90V = 127V. This adjusts the rms value received from an AC tacho
into the required peak value.
Note: Do not set the calibration volts to greater than 200V, the maximum terminal block rating.

Step 16 Adjustment for field weakening:


If the drive is to be run with a top speed greater than the base speed then `field weakening is
used to achieve that top speed. (Refer to Chapter 9: Control Loops - Field Control for a more
detailed explanation).
Note: The drive must be operating in Field Current Control. Select
CURRENT CONTROL on the FLD CTRL MODE parameter. Also,
field weakening cannot be used if you have Armature Voltage
feedback selected.
Run the drive up to base speed and check the motor volts are correct.
In the FLD WEAK VARS menu, verify that field weakening is
selected (FIELD WEAK ENABLE) and that the MIN FLD CURRENT
parameter is set appropriately. Adjust the maximum armature volts to
the required scaled level by setting the MAX VOLTS parameter.
Increase the speed above the base speed, checking that the armature
volts remain constant whilst the field current reduces.

PROCEED WITH CARE - MAKE SMALL ADJUSTMENTS.

Trim the MIN FLD CURRENT parameter to the appropriate setting (5% lower than the field
current at full speed).
IR COMPENSATION (CALIBRATION function block) is also used in field weakening
applications to improve dynamic response and speed holding stability.
To set up IR COMPENSATION:
Set FIELD ENABLE to DISABLED (FIELD CONTROL function block). Start the drive with a
5% speed demand and ensure the ACTUAL POS I LIMIT is 100% (diagnostic). This should
stall the drive at zero speed and cause it to pass 100% current. Monitor the BACK EMF
diagnostic and note the value (typically anything up to 17% is normal). Stop the drive and enter
this value into IR COMPENSATION and repeat the test to ensure that BACK EMF then reads
zero.

Adjustment for reversing drives:

For reversing drives, check the maximum reverse speed.


Imbalance in reversing drives can only be corrected by adjusting the

operation at Zero Setpoint.

Note: The controller cannot achieve 200% current unless the CUR.
LIMIT/SCALER parameter is increased to 200% (from its default

MAIN CURR.LIMIT

If the current limit is set higher (maximum 200%) and the motor runs into an overload
condition, the current is automatically reduced from the current limit level down to 103%

If the motor is overloaded, the controller will reduce the current to 103% of the current
calibration. (If the motor continues to rotate it may overheat and thermal protection should
be provided).
If the motor is overloaded and the current provided by the controller is not enough to
maintain rotation, i.e. it stalls, the controller will trip out showing STALL TRIP alarm, if

speed, or the field current is detected above 6% of rated field current, then the Autotune
sequence is suspended causing the main contactor to drop out.
Note: Refer to Chapter 9: Control Loops - Current Control for manual tuning instructions.

Speed Loop
You will need to adjust the Speed Loop for your particular application although in most cases
the default settings are acceptable. The optimum Speed Loop performance is achieved by
adjusting the PROP. GAIN and INT. TIME CONST. parameters.
PID is used to control the response of any closed loop system. It is used specifically in system
applications involving the control of drives to provide zero steady state error between Setpoint
and Feedback, together with good transient performance.

Proportional Gain (PROP. GAIN)


This is used to adjust the basic response of the closed loop control system. The PID error is
multiplied by the Proportional Gain to produce an output.

Integral (INT.TIME CONST.)


The Integral term is used to reduce steady state error between the setpoint and feedback values
of the PID. If the integral is set to zero, then there will always be a steady state error.
A Method for Setting-up the PID Gains
590+ Series DC Digital Converter

The gains should be set-up so that a critically damped response is achieved for a step change in
setpoint. An underdamped or oscillatory system can be thought of as having too much gain, and
an overdamped system has too little.
Underdamped (oscillatory)

Critically Damped

OUTPUT

Overdamped

SETPOINT

To set up the P gain, set the I gain to zero. Apply a step change in setpoint that is typical for the
System, and observe the response. Increase the gain and repeat the test until the system becomes
oscillatory. At this point, reduce the P gain until the oscillations disappear. This is the maximum
value of P gain achievable.
If a steady state error is present, i.e. the feedback never reaches the setpoint value, the I gain
needs to be increased. As before, increase the I gain and apply the step change. Monitor the
output. If the output becomes oscillatory, reduce the P gain slightly. This should reduce the
steady state error. Increasing the I gain further may reduce the time to achieve zero steady state
error.
These values of P and I can now be adjusted to provide the exact response required for this step
change.
Produce a small step-change to the speed setpoint and observe the response on the
tachogenerator feedback. If the drive is using Microtach/Encoder feedback, then the speed
response can be monitored on Terminal A7.
Adjust the two parameters until you have rapid change of speed feedback between the setpoint
values, but with minimum overshoot.

Starting and Stopping Methods


Stopping Methods
Note:
If the Converter is non-regenerative (2-quad - 591+) it effectively coasts to a stop once the
current demand reverses.
590+ Series DC Digital Converter

4-16

Operating the Converter


If the Converter is regenerative (4-quad - 590+) then it can stop faster because it uses
energy from the load, i.e. reverse current is allowed to flow.
Normal Stop and Program Stop are only relevant for a regenerative controller.
The parameters STOP TIME and PROG STOP TIME have associated
timers which initiate a Coast Stop after the timed period.
The Coast Stop has direct control of the Run relay with no intervening
electronics.

Normal Starting Method


To achieve a normal start of the Converter:
1. Apply 24V to Terminal C5 (Enable)
2. Apply 24V to Terminal C3 (Start)
Note: The Converter will not start if there are alarms present, or if Terminals B8 (Program Stop)
or B9 (Coast Stop) are low, 0V.
Ensure that Program Stop and Coast Stop are valid before Start/Run is applied.

Advanced Starting Methods


Starting Several Converters Simultaneously
1. Apply 24V to Terminal C3 (Start)
2. Use Terminal C5 (Enable) to synchronise the start-up of the Converters

Jog
1. Apply 24V to Terminal C5 (Enable)
2. Apply 24V to Terminal C4 (Jog Mode)
Note: The Converter will not start if there are alarms present.
The Converter can be started using JOG SPEED 1, JOG SPEED 2 (allowing for two different
setpoints, or perhaps to provide an Inch Forward/Inch Reverse).
Refer to Chapter 6: Programming Your Application - JOG/SLACK for further information.
Also refer to the STOP RATES function block: the CONTACTOR DELAY parameter is used to
prevent multiple operations of the main contactor from rapid use of the Jog switch.

Crawl
1. Apply 24V to Terminal C3 (Start)
2. Apply 24V to Terminal C4 (Jog Mode)
Note: The Converter will not start if there are alarms present.
Start the Converter using a crawl speed, in Forward or Reverse.

The drive can operate in one of two modes:
Remote Control Mode:

Allowing complete access for application programming

Local Control Mode:

Providing local control and monitoring of the drive

Local control keys are inactive when Remote control mode is selected and vice versa, with one
exception; the L/R key toggles Local or Remote control modes and so is always operative.
The drive always initialises in Remote control mode, and with the Local control keys inactive, it
is unlikely that the motor could be started accidentally.

The Menu System


The menu system is divided into a `tree structure
with 9 MENU LEVEL main menus. Consider
these main menus to be at Menu Level 1 (refer to the
Menu System Map on the next page). Parameters
contained in Menu Level 1 are the most frequently
used, as you descend the menu levels the parameters
are less frequently used.
The Operator Station has selectable viewing levels
which can restrict the view of the Remote menu
system, refer to Selecting a Menu Viewing Level,
page 5-10.
Below is a simple description of the main menus:
DIAGNOSTICS: a view of important diagnostic
parameters contained in the FUNCTION
BLOCKS menu.
SETUP PARAMETERS: contains all the
function block parameters for programming your
application, including parameters for tuning the
Converter.

The L/R Key


The L/R key (Local/Remote) only operates when the motor is stopped.
It toggles the drive between Local or Remote control and an appropriate menu on the Operator
Station is displayed; either a Local menu when in Local control, or a main programming menu
from the Menu System when in Remote control.
When in Local control, the Local LEDs, SEQ and REF, are illuminated and the RUN, STOP,
JOG, FORWARD/REVERSE, UP and DOWN local control keys can be used to control the
motor speed and direction.
Pressing the L/R key when in Local control mode selects Remote control mode and returns you
to your previous menu in the Menu System.

The PROG Key


The PROG key only operates when in Local control mode.
It toggles the display between the Local menu and the main Menu System but the drive remains
in Local control.
Thus, the PROG key allows you to make changes to parameters normally available in Remote
control mode whilst remaining in Local mode operation.
HINT: When operating the drive locally, it is quite useful to have a relevant parameter
selected in the main Menu System for easy access.

HINT: Remember that because the Menu and Parameter lists are looped, the key can
quickly move you to the last Menu or Parameter in the loop. The keys will repeat if you
hold them down. This is an easy way to step through and view a menus contents.

Note: The local setpoint parameter value is not saved on power-down.

Restoring Saved Settings


If you are unsure about any changes you have made and you have not yet performed a
PARAMETER SAVE, simply switch the Converter off, and power-up again. The last saved
parameter settings will be restored.

Copying an Application
Copying an application requires a host computer connection to the Converters System Port

Programming with Block Diagrams


You can program the Converter for specific applications using the MMI or suitable
programming tool, such as ConfigEd Lite which is SSD Drives block programming
software.
The Converter is supplied with a basic set-up which can be used as a starting point for
application-specific programming. This programming could simply involve the inputting of
parameter values, or it may require the making or breaking of programmable links, which is a
feature of this unit.
Block diagram programming provides a visual method of planning the software to suit your
application. The basic block diagram is provided in Chapter 15 and shows the software
connections consisting of function blocks and links:

Each function block contains the parameters required for setting-up a particular
processing feature. Sometimes more than one function block is provided for a feature, i.e.
for multiple digital inputs.

Software links are used to connect the function blocks. Each link transfers the value of an
output parameter to an input parameter of another (or the same) function block.

Each individual block is a processing feature: it takes the input parameter, processes the
information, and makes the result available as one or more output parameters.

Modifying a Block Diagram

Setup and Configuration Modes


There are two modes of operation used while modifying a block
diagram: Setup and Configuration modes.

The CONFIGURE ENABLE command is used to toggle between


these two modes of operation.

MMI Menu Map


1

SYSTEM

CONFIGURE I/O
CONFIGURE ENABLE

Setup Mode (CONFIGURE ENABLE = DISABLED)


In setup mode you can change parameter values. The Converter can be running or
stopped. Note that some parameters can only be changed when the Converter is
stopped. It is not possible to modify the internal links when the Converter is in setup
mode.

DEFAULT

Configuration Mode (CONFIGURE ENABLE = ENABLED)


In the configuration mode you can modify connections between the function blocks
in the drive. You can also change parameter values, as above. The Converter cannot
run in this mode. Output values are not updated.

Making and Breaking Function Block Connections


Links can be changed, added or deleted from a block diagram whilst in the Configuration
mode. There are 12 general-purpose links available, each has its own identification number
(link number). You make a link by setting the links source and destination tags to be
the two parameter tag numbers to be linked. The outputs of function blocks are not updated
whilst in this mode.
Note: Links 11 and 12 can be configured to perform one of a number of basic functions upon
the source and/or auxiliary source tag values, to be output at the selected destination
tag.

Special Links
In addition to these 12 general-purpose links, there are some links permanently associated with
particular input parameters. It is only necessary to enter the source tag number to activate
these links. Similarly, there are some links permanently associated with particular output
parameters. It is only necessary to enter the destination tag number to activate these links.
All these links may be found in the SYSTEM::CONFIGURE I/O menu.

Programming Your Application


Programming Rules
The following rules apply when programming:
Setup Mode (CONFIGURE ENABLE = DISABLED)
Function block output parameter values cannot be changed (because they are a result of
the function blocks processing)

Function block input parameter values that receive their values from a link cannot be
changed (as the link will overwrite the value when the Converter is running).

Configuration Mode (CONFIGURE ENABLE = ENABLED)


A links destination tag must be set to an input parameter (only one link per input
parameter).

A links source tag may be set to any parameter. Both input and output parameters can be
used as a source.

Disable a link/function block by setting the destination and source tag to zero.

Saving Your Modifications


Ensure that CONFIGURE ENABLE = DISABLED before performing a PARAMETER
SAVE.
If parameter values or links have been modified, the new settings must be saved. The
Converter will then retain the new settings during power-down. Refer to Chapter 5: The
Operator Station - Saving Your Application.

Understanding the Function Block Description


The following function
blocks show the parameter
information necessary for
programming the Converter.
Input parameters are shown
on the left hand side, and
output parameters are shown
on the right hand side of the
block.
Some parameters are
indicated as Reserved,
these parameters are for use
by SSD Drives' engineers.

MMI Menu Maps


The function block descriptions include an easy-find menu showing the menu levels and
titles encountered to find the appropriate menu title, and the parameters contained in the
menu(s).
The menu maps are shown as if the full view level is selected.
Where there is more than one sub-menu, i.e. ANALOG INPUTS as illustrated, the
parameters shown will be for the last sub-menu. In many cases, these parameters will reflect
the name and number of the last sub-menu.
MMI parameters are named intuitively to make the keypad easier to use, however, they may
vary slightly from function block names.
A function block may contain more than one MMI menu, for example, FIELD CONTROL.
In contrast, the DIAGNOSTICS function block has many fewer parameters than the
DIAGNOSTICS MMI menu because the parameters are distributed to related function

blocks.

Note: Terminal ANIN 2 (A3) is permanently


connected to SETPOINT 2 (A3) in the SPEED
LOOP function block and to the Current
Demand via I DEMAND ISOLATE (the current demand isolate switch) in the CURRENT
LOOP function block.

To avoid interference with other drive functions when not required: the parameter
RATIO 2 (A3) (Tag 7 in the SPEED LOOP function block) must be set to zero; and the I
DMD. ISOLATE parameter (Tag 119 in the CURRENT LOOP function block) must be set
to DISABLED, i.e. selecting the Speed Loop as shown in the Main Block Diagram.
Because ANIN 2 (A3) is scanned synchronously with the current loop (typically every
3.3/2.6ms, 50/60Hz), it should be used for any signal whose response is critical e.g. a
trim input from an external positioning system or load share.

The parameters in Block Diagram connect the outputs of RAISE/LOWER, RAMPS,
SETPOINT SUM 1, and the Special Blocks (MMI menu) function blocks to destinations as
required.
These function blocks are only executed when the destinations are connected to a non-zero
tag. If a function block is not required, set its destination tag to zero. This causes the processor
to ignore the function and reduces processor loading.

POSITION COUNT

267

0x0000 to 0xFFFF

Reserved parameter for use by SSD Drives.


The POSITION COUNT and POSITION DIVIDER parameters allow basic position control
using a PLC (programmable logic controller), the optional COMMS techbox, and a speed
feedback encoder mounted on the motor shaft.
The position counter counts pulses is hexadecimal format. It begins incrementing from
0000 when you start the drive in the forward direction, then rolls over to 0000 on the count
after FFFF. If you start and run the drive in reverse, the counter begins at 0000, rolls over to
FFFF and then counts down to 0000. On reaching 0000, the counter rolls over to FFFF on
the next count. After the drive is stopped and/or restarted, the counter retains its count.
To read the position count using a PLC, enable CONFIGURE ENABLE and connect the
POSITION COUNT output in the CALIBRATION function block to a free serial PNO slot
(PNO 112 to 120) using ConfigEd Lite or the MMI. The PNO parameters are located in the
SERIAL LINKS::PNO CONFIG menu.
POSITION DIVIDER

275

1 to 30000

Reserved parameter for use by SSD Drives.


The divider provides scaling capability. The divider scales the 1000 pulses per revolution
provided by the encoder before the pulses reach the position counter. A separate register
accumulates the remainders.

Current Loop

It takes the current demand, imposes limits


through four clamps, and then uses a PI loop
to control the output.
The four separate clamps - current profile,
inverse time overload, bipolar clamps and
main current clamp - the clamps are in
series and lowest clamp takes effect. The
resultant clamp value can be seen in the
diagnostics ACTUAL POS I LIM and
ACTUAL NEG I LIM.
The inputs to this block are: the current
demand from the speed loop or terminal A3
(selected via I DMD. ISOLATE); the
current limit clamps from CURRENT
PROFILE and INVERSE TIME (note that
the bipolar clamps and main current clamp
are resident in the CURRENT LOOP block);
current feedback from CALIBRATION.

DISABLED / ENABLED
Selects between bipolar (asymmetric) or unipolar (symmetric) current clamps for the 4
quadrants of operation. Default setting of DISABLED means UNIPOLAR clamps selected.
DISABLED - unipolar (symmetric)
ENABLED - bipolar (asymmetric)
With BIPOLAR CLAMPS disabled, the clamps are symmetrical and are set by POS. I
CLAMP. With BIPOLAR CLAMPS enabled, the clamps are assymmetrical, bipolar. In
bipolar mode, POS. I CLAMP sets the maximum positive current and NEG. I CLAMP sets
the maximum negative current. POS. I CLAMP must always be set algebraically higher than
NEG. I CLAMP. As a result, NEG. I CLAMP can be set to a positive value. CUR.
LIMIT/SCALER scales both POS. I CLAMP and NEG. I CLAMP.
REGEN MODE
201
DISABLED / ENABLED
When disabled, sets the drive for non-regenerative (2-quadrant) operation.
Note: We recommend that this parameter is not changed whilst the machine is running.
DISABLED - non-regenerative (2-quadrant)
ENABLED - regenerative (4-quadrant)
When REGEN MODE is DISABLED, negative current demands are clamped to zero.
Current feedback is subtracted from the current demand and the result is controlled by the PI
loop. The result provides SCR phase angle control.

Note on bipolar current clamps: these clamps in bipolar mode can cross-over onto the same
quadrant as long as the POS. I CLAMP is always greater (algebraically) than the NEG. I
CLAMP.
I DMD. ISOLATE
119
DISABLED / ENABLED
Speed loop bypass; the current demand is taken from ANIN 2 (A3).
With I DMD. ISOLATE disabled, the current loop uses the current demand from the speed
loop. With I DMD. ISOLATE enabled, ANALOG I/P 2, terminal A3, supplies the current
demand. With default scaling, 10V dc on terminal A3 is 100% current demand. An additional
current input, ADDITIONAL DEM, can be added to the current demand. The simplified

The input to the block is SPEED FEEDBACK from the SPEED LOOP function block. The
output of the block changes the current limit clamp in the current loop.

When SPEED FEEDBACK exceeds SPD BRK 1 (LOW), the current profile begins
scaling the current limit as set by IMAX BRK 1 (SPD1).

As the SPEED FEEDBACK increases toward SPD BRK2 (HIGH), the current limit is
reduced linearly toward IMAX BRK2 (SPD2).

When the speed exceeds SPD BRK2 (HIGH), the current limit remains at the IMAX

DIAMETER CALC calculates the diameter of a reel as a function of the reel speed and the
line speed. The resulting diameter is a percentage of the maximum full roll diameter. A lead
section, adjacent line section, or surface driven speed sensing device is required to supply the
line speed signal. The winder or unwind drive's motor speed feedback provides the reel speed
input.
The ratio of the minimum core diameter to the maximum roll diameter determines the
operating range of the diameter calculator. Set MIN DIAMETER to that ratio using the
expression:
Minimum Core Outside Diameter Maximum Full Roll Diameter x 100%
The magnitude of LINE SPEED is compared with MIN SPEED to determine when the
diameter calculator will operate:

When LINE SPEED is above MIN SPEED the calculator is on

When LINE SPEED is below MIN SPEED, DIAMETER is held at the last calculated
diameter
When EXTERNAL RESET is ENABLED, RESET VALUE is used as the diameter output.
Note: In turret winder applications, LINE SPEED will usually be above MIN SPEED. During roll
changes, EXTERNAL RESET must be held ENABLED for the new spindle until the web has
been transferred and the diameter is calculated properly. RESET VALUE must be set to
the appropriate new core value for a rewind, or new roll diameter for an unwind.
RAMP RATE adjusts the filtering of the diameter output. Its setting is the time it takes for a
100% change in DIAMETER. For example, at the default setting of 5.0 seconds, a 50% step
change in diameter would take 2.5 seconds for the output diameter output to display the
change.

Digital Input Examples


Using Digital Inputs with LOGIC Parameters
Logic parameters have values of 1/0: TRUE/FALSE, ON/OFF, ENABLED/DISABLED etc.
For example, the default connections in the drive allow the Digital Inputs to switch LOGIC
parameters. These are the connections from:

Terminal C6 to Tag 90 (BIPOLAR CLAMPS)

Terminal C7 to Tag 118 (RAMP HOLD)

Terminal C8 to Tag 119 (I DMD. ISOLATE)

In each case, the state of the terminal (24V or 0V) switches the destination parameter by
sending a 1 or 0.
The format for the VALUE TRUE and VALUE FALSE parameters is in percent, thus 0.00%
= 0 and 0.01% (or any other non-zero number) = 1.

590+ Series DC Digital Converter

Programming Your Application

DIGITAL INPUTS
Inverting the Input Signal
The default setting is for VALUE TRUE to be 0.01% and VALUE FALSE to be 0.00%.
Inverting the digital input is therefore simple; set VALUE TRUE to 0.00% and VALUE
FALSE to 0.01% (or any other non-zero number).
To do this:
1. Set CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to ENABLE
2. Set DIGIN 1 (C6)::VALUE FOR TRUE to 0.00%
3. Set VALUE FOR FALSE to 0.01%
4. Reset CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to DISABLE
Digital Input 1 now sends a 0 when the input signal is TRUE, and 1 when it is FALSE.
Using Digital Inputs with VALUE Parameters
Value parameters have values such as 100.00, or with units like 50.00%, 10.0 SECS etc.
You can use a Digital Input to send two fixed values to a VALUE parameter depending upon
the state of the input terminal, 24V or 0V. You set the two fixed values you require in the
VALUE TRUE and VALUE FALSE parameters.
For example, to connect Digital Input 1 to SPEED LOOP::SPD.PROP.GAIN :
1.
2.

Set CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to ENABLE


Find the tag number for SPD.PROP.GAIN either from the function block detail in
this chapter, or from the Parameter Table: MMI Order - refer to Chapter 10. (It is 14).
3. Set DIGIN 1 (C6)::DESTINATION TAG to 14
4. Set VALUE FOR TRUE to 10.00%
5. Set VALUE FOR FALSE to 30.00%
6. Reset CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to DISABLE
Digital Input 1 will now set SPD.PROP.GAIN to two values depending upon the state of the
input signal:

When the input terminal is at 24V, SPD.PROP.GAIN is set to 10.00


When the input terminal is at 0V, SPD.PROP.GAIN is set to 30.00

DIGITAL INPUT C4 and DIGITAL INPUT C5


You can configure digital input terminals C4 (Jog) and C5 (Enable) for your own use when
you do not need the external jog or current loop enable functions.
You can only configure the DESTINATION parameter for each of these blocks. Internally,
VALUE TRUE is fixed at 0.01% (+24V dc), and VALUE FALSE is fixed at 0.00% (0V).
This makes them suitable for switching LOGIC parameters only.
DIGITAL INPUT C4
Refer to the DIAGNOSTICS function block description, page 6-23.
To use terminal C4 as a spare digital input, remove the link between the output JOG
INPUT (C4) and the input JOG/SLACK in the AUX I/O function block, using
ConfigEd Lite. You can then tag the block's output JOG INPUT (C4) to a digital
parameter. Or, you may re-tag the parameter using the MMI.. The destination tag for
DIGITAL INPUT (C4) can be found in the SYSTEM::CONFIGURE I/O::DIGITAL
INPUTS menu in the MMI.

Refer to the DIAGNOSTICS function block description, page 6-23.
Caution
If you are isolating power on the drive output using a DC contactor, you must
use an auxiliary, normally-open contact connected to terminal C5 to
immediately disable the drive's current loop when the contactor coil deenergises. Free-up terminal C5 for other uses only when isolating main power
on the input side of the drive using an AC contactor.
Note: Some 590 DRV models isolate power on the 590 drive output using a DC contactor, so
you cannot use terminal C5 as an additional digital input.
To use terminal C5 as a spare digital input you must release it from its default duty.
To do this, remove the link between the output ENABLE (C5) and the input

DIGITAL OUTPUTS
Digital Output Examples
Using Digital Outputs with LOGIC Parameters
Logic parameters have values of 1/0: TRUE/FALSE, ON/OFF, ENABLED/DISABLED etc.
For example, the (logic) default connections in the drive allow the Digital Outputs to provide
(source) 24V or 0V dc depending upon the state of following tag connections:

Terminal B5, Digital Output 1 is linked to Tag Number 77 (AT ZERO SPEED)

Terminal B6, Digital Output 2 is linked to Tag Number 122 (HEALTH LED)

Terminal B7, Digital Output 3 is linked to Tag Number 125 (READY)

In each case, the state of the source parameter defines the voltage available at the terminal
(TRUE = 24V, FALSE = 0V when INVERTED = FALSE). Inverting the digital output is
simple; set INVERTED to TRUE.
Using Digital Outputs with VALUE Parameters (Up-to-speed Detector)
Value parameters have values such as 100.00, or with units like 50.00%, 10.0 SECS etc.
For example, to connect Digital Output 1 to read UNFIL.SPD.FBK:
1.

Set CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to ENABLE

2.

Find the tag number for UNFIL.SPD.FBK either from the function block detail in
this chapter, or from the Parameter Table: MMI Order - refer to Chapter 10. (It is 62).

3.

Set DIGITAL OUTPUTS::DIGOUT 1 (B5)::SOURCE TAG to 62

4.

Set DIGITAL OUTPUTS::DIGOUT 1 (B5)::THRESHOLD(>) to 50.00%

5.

Set DIGITAL OUTPUTS::DIGOUT 1 (B5)::MODULUS to TRUE

6.

Set DIGITAL OUTPUTS::DIGOUT 1 (B5)::INVERTED to FALSE

7.

Set CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to DISABLE

This option is useful for generating an "up-to-speed" output. The MODULUS removes the
sign from the value (so -100 becomes 100). The THRESHOLD(>) parameter determines when
the output is 24V or 0V dc (the input signal must exceed this setting for the output to go high).
Set INVERTED to TRUE to invert the result of the output.

FIELD ENABLE disables the field thyristor bridge and is used in permanent motor
applications. Disabling the field automatically overrides the field fail alarm. If FIELD
ENABLE is enabled, you can select between voltage and current control using the FLD CTRL
MODE parameter. The default is VOLTAGE CONTROL.
The diagnostic DRIVE ENABLE (Tag 84) is also used by the FLD. QUENCH DELAY to
delay disabling the field when Run is removed.

FLD.WEAK VARS

In VOLTAGE CONTROL mode, set the value of RATIO OUT/IN (FLD.VOLTS RATIO) to
provide the correct field voltage. This control mode provides open-loop phase angle control of
the thyristor bridge. To calculate RATIO OUT/IN, divide the desired DC field voltage by the

CURRENT CONTROL mode uses actual field current feedback for closed-loop control giving
accurate motor field control independent of motor temperature. This is a pre-requisite for field
weakening.

FLD WEAK VARS : MMI Sub-Menu


In certain applications of a DC motor controller, high speeds can only be achieved by reducing
the field current and therefore the resultant torque. This is termed as the Constant-Horsepower
region or Field-Weakening region, and the speed at which it begins is known as the Base
Speed.

EMF GAIN
177
0.00 to 100.00
This is the gain adjustment of the field weakening PID loop.
With a default of 3.00, real gain = 30.
MIN FIELD CURRENT
179
0.00 to 100.00 %
(MIN FLD.CURRENT)
The field weakening loop reduces the field current to achieve speed control above base
speed. At top speed the field reaches a minimum value. MIN FIELD CURRENT should be
set below this minimum value to allow reasonable margin for transient control near the top
speed but not lower than 6% as this could then cause the "Field Fail" alarm to operate.
MAX VOLTS
178
0.00 to 100.00 %
Maximum volts is the voltage level at which field weakening begins. It is also known as
"Spillover Bias". The default value is 100% of the nominal value as set by the armature
voltage calibration value. For commissioning purposes this value can be set to another
(lower) desirable level. Subsequently, it is advisable to return it to 100% for normalisation.
BEMF FBK LEAD
191
10 to 5000
This is the lead time constant of the back emf feedback filter which is used for reducing
armature voltage overshoots when accelerating fast through base speed.
BEMF FBK LAG
192
10 to 5000
This is the lag time constant of the above feedback filter. If the filter is active, the ratio of
lead / lag should always be greater than 1 to give an overall lead action which reduces the
voltage overshoot and less than, typically, 3 for stable control. The default values 100/100 =
1 cancel each other and make the filter inactive.
FLD. QUENCH DELAY
185
0.0 to 600.0 s
(FLD.QUENCH DELAY)
If dynamic breaking is used the field must be maintained for a period after the drive is
disabled until the motor reaches zero speed. The field quench delay is the period of time
that the field is maintained for when the drive is disabled.
FLD. QUENCH MODE
186
QUENCH / STANDBY
After the field quench delay has expired, the field can be entirely quenched or put into a
standby mode at 50% of rated current or volts depending whether in current or voltage
control mode respectively. (The default standby value of 50% can be modified through the
"SYSTEM / Reserved" Menu which is primarily for factory use only and requires the
super password.)

INTERNAL LINKS
Internal Links - Example
Controlling both the acceleration and deceleration times of the drive ramp
through analog input 1 (default terminal A2)
This example is similar to the first example in ANALOG INPUTS, page 6-5.
As before, the ends of the external potentiometer are connected to the drive's 0V and +10V dc
supply (terminals A1 and B3). The wiper of the potentiometer is connected to terminal A2.
The CALIBRATION parameter of ANALOG INPUT 1 (Tag 230) is set to 5.00%. This scales
the input signal (from 0.1 to 600 seconds) to 30 seconds maximum.
However, in this example INTERNAL LINK is used to allow the external potentiometer to
control both the acceleration and deceleration times of the ramp.
To do this:
1.

Set CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to ENABLE.

2.

Find the tag number for RAMP ACCELTIME and RAMP DECEL TIME either from
the RAMPS function block detail in this chapter, or from the Parameter Table: MMI
Order - refer to Chapter 10. (They are 2 and 3 respectively).

3.

Set ANIN 1 (A2)::DESTINATION TAG (OUTPUT) to 2 (for RAMP ACCEL


TIME).

4.

Set ANIN 1 (A2)::CALIBRATION to 0.500 (5.00%).

5.

Set ANIN 1 (A2)::MAX VALUE to 100.00%.

6.

Set ANIN 1 (A2)::MIN VALUE to 0.00%.

7.

Exit the ANALOG INPUTS sub-menu and scroll down to INTERNAL LINKS. Enter
the INTERNAL LINKS sub-menu.

8.

Set LINK 1::SOURCE TAG to 2 (for RAMP ACCEL TIME), which is also the
destination tag for the output of the ANIN 1 (A2) function block.

9.

Set LINK1::DESTINATION TAG to 3 (for RAMP DECEL TIME).

10. Set CONFIGURE I/O::CONFIGURE ENABLE to DISABLE.


Analog Input 1 (terminal A2) now controls both the speed ramp acceleration and deceleration
times, over a range of 0 to 30 seconds. An input of 10V dc sets the ramp up and down times to
30 seconds.

The JOG/SLACK parameters modify or replace

spare digital input to switch between modes to achieve full functionality.
The ramp input speed demand from RAMPS is modified as required by MODE, Start, and
Jog. These settings are shown in the Setpoint Selection table.

Jog: With the Start signal OFF, the jog speed demand replaces the ramp input speed
demand. MODE selects between jog setpoints 1 and 2. The jog RAMP RATE replaces
the RAMP ACCEL TIME and RAMP DECEL TIME in the RAMPS function block. % SRAMP is also set to 0.00%.

Take Up Slack: With the Start signal ON, the jog signal performs a "take up slack"
function. When a jog signal is received, the take up slack setpoint is added to the ramp
input speed demand. MODE and Jog settings, from the table, select between the two takeup slack setpoints.

Crawl: CRAWL SPEED replaces the ramp input speed demand as the output signal when
both Start and Jog signals are ON, and MODE is TRUE.

For Mode = 2, Profiled Gain = A * (diameter - min diameter)^2 + B.
For Mode = 3, Profiled Gain = A * (diameter - min diameter)^3 + B.
For Mode = 4, Profiled Gain = A * (diameter - min diameter)^4 + B.
MIN PROFILE GAIN
474
0.00 to 100.00 %
This expresses the minimum gain required at minimum diameter (core) as a percentage of
the (maximum) P gain at full diameter (100%), when MODE > 0.
PROFILED GAIN
475
xxxx.x

against varying diameter and therefore inertia.
When MODE is not ZERO (see above) this overrides the P gain above.
When MODE = 0, then PROFILED GAIN = PROP. GAIN.

PID

Functional Description
The following block diagram shows the internal structure of the PID block.
PID is used to control the response of any closed loop system. It is used specifically in system
applications involving the control of drives to allow zero steady state error between Reference
and Feedback, together with good transient performance.
The block executes a Proportional Gain + Integral + Derivative control algorithm, with an
added filter to attenuate high-frequency noise. You can select P, PD, PI or PID as required.
Proportional Gain (PROP. GAIN)
This is used to adjust the basic response of the closed loop control system. It is
defined as the portion of the loop gain fed back to make the complete control loop
stable. The PID error is multiplied by the Proportional Gain to produce an output.
Integral (INT. TIME CONST.)
The Integral term is used to give zero steady state error between the setpoint and
feedback values of the PID. If the integral is set to a small value, this will cause an
underdamped or unstable control system.
Derivative (DERIVATIVE TC)
This is used to correct for certain types of control loop instability, and therefore
improve response. It is sometimes used when heavy or large inertia rolls are being
controlled. The derivative term has an associated filter to suppress high frequency
signals.
The algorithm modifies the error between the setpoint and the feedback with the proportional,
integral, and derivative terms. The error is clamped internally to 105% maximum.
The proportional, integral, and derivative terms are scaled by PROP. GAIN, INT. TIME
CONST., and DERIVATIVE TC respectively. An additional gain profiler can modify the
proportional gain as the roll diameter changes. The block diagram shows how the proportional
gain changes when using the profiler.

Proportional Gain
Proportional gain scales the
output based upon the input
error. Increasing PROP.
GAIN will improve the
response time while
increasing overshoot. MODE
selects the proportional gain
profile. When set to 0, the
proportional gain remains
constant over the entire roll.
Changing the value of
MODE increases the profile
as shown opposite.
You should try to achieve a
critically damped response
which allows the mechanics
to track as precisely as
possible a step change on the

Integral eliminates steady-state error. Reducing INT. TIME CONST. improves the response,
however, if it is set too short it will cause instability. The integral value is clamped internally
by the settings of POSITIVE LIMIT and NEGATIVE LIMIT. It is also held at the last value
when the PID CLAMPED output is TRUE. Setting INT. DEFEAT to ON will disable the
integral gain term.

PID
Derivative Gain
Derivative gain instantaneously boosts the PID output signal. Increasing DERIVATIVE TC
decreases the damping, which in most cases causes overshoot and oscillations resulting in an
unacceptable system response.
Note: For most applications, derivative gain is never used and is usually left at its default value
of 0.000 seconds.
Derivative gain can improve response in some dancer tension controlled systems, particularly
those systems with high inertia dancers which need an instantaneous response to overcome the
weight of the dancer roll. For loadcell controlled tension systems, derivative gain is almost
never used.
The block diagram below shows the types of system responses possible, MODE = 0 to MODE
= 4.

In underdamped systems, the output oscillates and the settling time increases.
Critically damped systems have no overshoot or oscillations. They reach the setpoint
within the desired response time.
Overdamped systems do not oscillate but do not reach the setpoint within the desired
response time.

MIN. SPEED

The input signal to the block is clamped by MIN SPEED, which sets the minimum ramp input
speed when the drive is enabled.
RAMP INPUT is routed to the JOG/SLACK function block to be modified as determined by
the JOG inputs. The RAMPS block then shapes the signal to produce the RAMP OUTPUT
signal.
The RAMPING output becomes TRUE when the absolute value of the difference between
RAMP OUTPUT and the JOG/SLACK function block output exceeds RAMPING THRESH.
RAMP ACCEL TIME and RAMP DECEL TIME set the acceleration and deceleration times
taken for input changes. % S-RAMP adds a "S" shaped section to the linear ramp. When set to
0.00%, the ramp will be linear. As the percentage is increased, 350% of the ramp time is
added to the linear ramp creating more gradual starting and stopping. The formula for the
actual ramp time is shown below. Ramp time is the value of parameters RAMP ACCEL TIME
or RAMP DECEL TIME.
Actual Ramp Time = RAMP TIME x (3.5 x % S-RAMP/100 + 1)
RAMP HOLD stops the ramp from changing. When DIGIN 2 (C7) is ON, the ramp stays at
the last ramp value.
The reset signal can have two sources, a RUN signal or an external reset signal. When AUTO
RESET is ENABLED, the ramp resets whenever a Run signal is given at terminal C3.
Connecting a digital input to EXTERNAL RESET allows an external source to reset the ramp.

Functional Description
Speed Loop PI Output
The PI output is accessible via Tag No. 356. This point is before the I Limit clamps and the
summing of the additional current demand.
This Tag is not visible on the MMI.
Speed Loop PI with Current Demand Isolate
The speed loop output is still valid (active) with the I DMD. ISOLATE parameter enabled.
Note: 1

The speed loop is reset by unquenching the speed loop/current loop.

I DMD. ISOLATE is overridden by Program Stop (B8) or Normal Stop (C3).

The speed loop PI is holding the integral term as soon as the PI output reaches
current limit. This is true even in Current Demand Isolate mode where it may
interfere depending on the way the speed PI is used. This feature is currently not
suppressible.

105% Speed Demands


The speed demand clamping allows the speed setpoint to reach 105%. This applies only to the
final summing junction immediately before the speed loop and also to the Setpoint Sum 1
output. Individual speed setpoints are still clamped to 100%.

ADAPTION : MMI Sub-Menu


This menu allows you to profile the drive's speed loop proportional and integral gains to
certain drive parameters. The gains change when the motor speed feedback reaches the
thresholds set by SPD BRK 1 (LOW) and SPD BRK 2 (HIGH).

At or below SPD BRK 1 (LOW), the speed loop uses the PROP. GAIN and INT. TIME
CONST. values in ADAPTION as its PI loop gains.

Between SPD BRK 1 (LOW) and SPD BRK 2 (HIGH), profiling occurs and the speed
loop gains are determined by another parameter value (according to the selection of the
MODE parameter).

Above SPD BRK 2 (HIGH), the PROP. GAIN and INT. TIME CONST. settings in the
SPEED LOOP function block are used.

ZERO IAD LEVEL

MODE selects the parameter for profiling the speed loop PI gains when the motor speed is

ZERO SPD. QUENCH : MMI Sub-Menu


When ZERO SPD. QUENCH is TRUE, the current loop is disabled when SPEED DEMAND,
SPEED FEEDBACK and CURRENT DEMAND have all dropped to the threshold levels set
by ZERO SPD. LEVEL and ZERO IAD LEVEL.
This is similar to Standstill logic (it stops making current but the contactor stays energised)
except that the speed loop remains enabled and this will cause the current loop to unquench
very quickly.

The outputs are AT ZERO SPEED, AT


STANDSTILL, and AT ZERO SETPOINT. AT ZERO SPEED is connected to DIGOUT 1
(B5) in the default configuration. A "not at standstill" signal is sent to the drive enable logic.
When SPEED FEEDBACK is less than ZERO THRESHOLD, AT ZERO SPEED is TRUE.
When SPEED SETPOINT is less than ZERO THRESHOLD, AT ZERO SETPOINT is
TRUE. When both AT ZERO SPEED and AT ZERO SETPOINT are TRUE, AT
STANDSTILL is TRUE signalling the motor has stopped.
If AT STANDSTILL is TRUE and STANDSTILL LOGIC is ENABLED, then the speed and
current loops are quenched. The SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier)/thyristor firing circuits are
disabled, the main contactor remains energised and the RUN LED stays on when the drive is
at standstill. The drive remains in this state until standstill drops out. That is, when the speed
setpoint or speed feedback rise above the zero threshold.
STANDSTILL LOGIC is useful in maintaining absolute zero speed and aids in preventing
gearbox wear due to chattering.
However, it can cause problems in web handling applications using tension feedback: at zero
speed, the SCR/thyristors turn off allowing the web tension to pull the driven roll in reverse.
When the drive no longer senses it is at zero speed, the SCR/thyristors turn back on causing
the motor to move forward and regulate tension. An oscillation condition can result as the
drives SCR/thyristors turn on and off trying to maintain a fixed position.

Regenerative drives use STOP TIME to set the duration of the stop.

After the stop, the contactor de-energises and the drive disables.
The STOP LIMIT timer starts when C3 goes to 0V (the Run signal is removed). If the drive
speed has not reached STOP ZERO SPEED within the STOP LIMIT time, the contactor deenergises and the drive disables.
During Normal Stops after the motor reaches zero speed, CONTACTOR DELAY delays the
de-energising of the contactor. When STOP ZERO SPEED is set above 0.25%, the drive
disables during the contactor delay. Below 0.25%, the drive disables after the contactor delay.
This is useful when using the Jog function to prevent multiple operations of the contactor.
CONTACTOR DELAY is overridden when terminal C5 (Enable Input) is at 0V.
Program Stop
PROGRAM STOP provides a controlled fast stop for regenerative drives. The stop time is set
by PROG STOP TIME. This timer starts once terminal B8 (Program Stop) goes to 0V. When
the drive reaches STOP ZERO SPEED, the contactor de-energises and the drive disables.
PROG STOP LIMIT sets the maximum time the Program Stop can take before the contactor
de-energises and the drive disables.
PROG STOP I LIM sets the current limit in the current loop during a Program Stop. Other
current limits can override it.

The function block uses two inputs, tension setpoint and taper setpoint, to create the tension
demand. The operator usually controls these setpoints.
Taper is a common requirement for winders. It reduces the tension as the roll diameter
increases.
A profiler adjusts the tension using the equation:

Tapered Demand = Tension Spt 100%

Taper

(Diameter Min Diameter )


Diameter

to yield a hyperbolic taper output. MIN DIAMETER and DIAMETER are linked internally to
the DIAMETER CALC function block. The taper tension characteristics are shown below:

The result is multiplied by TENSION SPT. to get TAPER DEMAND. When the taper setpoint
is at 100%, the motor produces constant torque. That is, a constant torque from core to full
roll, and the tension falls off as the roll builds.
TENSION TRIM allows the tension demand to be adjusted, for example, when using closed
loop trim. The result is TOT. TENS DEMAND.

You should output TENS+COMP to TORQUE


DEMAND (Tag 432) in the TORQUE CALC. function block for open loop winder
applications.
Static and Dynamic Frictional Losses
Static and dynamic friction are due to gearbox resistance and mechanical binding in the winder
spindle and motor bearings. Both absorb motor output torque and require compensation to
maintain accurate winder tension.
Static friction, or "stiction", is a constant offset most noticeable at or near zero speed. The
compensation torque required to overcome static friction is fixed over an entire operating
speed range. You can ignore "stiction" for winders which do not normally operate at zero
speeds.
Torque
Dynamic friction results from friction
(Armature Current)
losses within the drive train, which
includes gearboxes and chain belting
linkages. The oil viscosity in
gearboxes and windage losses in the
Dynamic
motor armature fans also contribute to
Compensation
dynamic frictional losses.

The effects of static and dynamic


friction are shown opposite.
Inertia Compensation
Many winders need inertia compensation
to add or subtract torque during
acceleration and deceleration to maintain
constant tension, especially at large roll
diameters. Without compensation, the
tension holding capability of open loop
winders diminishes during speed changes
causing tension sag.
The inertia compensation characteristics
is shown opposite.
For winder applications, inertia
compensation is split into two
components:
1.

2.

590+ Series DC Digital Converter

Fixed inertia compensation for the


fixed motor, transmission and load
components.
Variable inertia compensation for the

Trips and Fault Finding

TRIPS AND FAULT FINDING

Trips
What Happens when a Trip Occurs
When a trip occurs, the Converters power stage is immediately disabled causing the motor and
load to coast to a stop. The trip is latched until action is taken to reset it. This ensures that trips
due to transient conditions are captured and the Converter is disabled, even when the original
cause of the trip is no longer present.

Converter Indications
If a trip condition is detected the unit displays and performs the following actions.
1.

The HEALTH LED goes out indicating a Trip condition has occurred. (Investigate, find
and remove the cause of the trip.)

2.

Terminal B6 (Healthy) goes low (0V).

Operator Station Indications


If a trip condition is detected the MMI displays and performs the following actions.
1.

The HEALTH LED goes out indicating a Trip condition has occurred. The MMI displays
the activated alarm. (Investigate, find and remove the cause of the trip.)

2.

Terminal B6 (Healthy) goes low (0V).

3.

The alarm message(s) can be acknowledged by pressing the E key, however, the unit will
not restart at this point.

Resetting a Trip Condition


All trips must be reset before the Converter can be re-enabled. A trip can only be reset once the
trip condition is no longer active, i.e. a trip due to a heatsink over-temperature will not reset
until the temperature is below the trip level.
Note: More than one trip can be active at any time. For example, it is possible for both the
HEATSINK TRIP and the OVERVOLTS (VA) trips to be active. Alternatively it is possible for
the Converter to trip due to a FIELD OVER I error and then for the HEATSINK TRIP trip to
become active after the Converter has stopped (this may occur due to the thermal time
constant of the heatsink).
You can reset the trip(s) in one of two ways:
1. Power-up, or remove and re-apply the auxiliary power supply.
2. Stop and start the converter, i.e. remove and re-apply the Start/Run signal (terminal C3 or
C4, or the STOP and RUN keys on the MMI).
Success is indicated by the HEALTH LED (on the unit or MMI) illuminating. The MMI will
return to its original display.

Alarm Messages
When a trip occurs an alarm message is displayed on the MMI, and information about the trip is
stored in the ALARM STATUS menu.
The alarm message and the LAST ALARM parameter are displayed in the selected language of
the MMI.
The HEALTH STORE and HEALTH WORD parameters display information as hexadecimal
values, or the sum of the hexadecimal values when more than one alarm is active. Thus the
unique value can represent one or more alarms.
Note: Hexadecimal refers to the common practice of counting to the base of 16 in computing
rather than the base of 10. The sixteen `numbers used being 0 to 9, A to F. Thus an 8
bit byte is represented by two characters in the range 00 to FF, while a 16 bit word is
represented by four characters in the range 0000 to FFFF.

LAST ALARM
(Tag 528). This display shows the last alarm message to have been displayed. To reset the
parameter simply press the (DOWN) key to clear the alarm. Alternatively, you can switch the

Trips and Fault Finding

Using the MMI to Manage Trips


Trip Messages
Most of the alarms have a delay timer so that the Converter only trips if the condition persists
for the whole of the delay period.
If the Converter trips, then the display immediately shows a message indicating the reason for
the trip. The possible trip messages are given in the table below.
Trip Message and Meaning

Possible Reason for Trip

OVERSPEED
Motor overspeed - the speed feedback
signal has exceeded 125% of rated
speed.

Badly adjusted speed loop (alarm only operates with


encoder or armature volts feedback selected)
Alarm time delay : 0.1 seconds

MISSING PULSE
A missing pulse from the 6-pulse
armature current waveform. Trips when
the motor loading exceeds 1.5 times the
DISCONTINUOUS parameter value.

Firing plug failure


Connection failure
Alarm time delay : 60 seconds

FIELD OVER I
The motor field current has exceeded
120% of the calibrated value

Regulator failure
Badly tuned control loop (alarm only operates with
field current control mode selected)
Alarm time delay : 15 seconds

HEATSINK TRIP
The Converter heatsink temperature is
too high

The ambient air temperature is too high


Poor ventilation or spacing between Converters
Fan failure, check fuse on power board, wrong
rotation (models above 70A bridge rating)
Blocked ventilation slots
Clogged air filters
Excessive armature current - nominal armature
current on motor nameplate should be checked
against the current calibration for the Converter.

Note: The stack must be allowed to cool in


order to re-start the Converter.
Alarm time delay : 0.75 seconds
THERMISTOR
The motor temperature is too high

Inadequate ventilation
Blower failure -check for direction, clogged air filters
(models above 70A bridge rating)
Excessive armature current - check nominal armature
current on nameplate against current calibration)

Note: The motor must be allowed to cool in


order to re-start the Converter.
Alarm time delay : 15 seconds
OVER VOLTS (VA)
Motor armature voltage has exceeded
120% of rated volts

Loose armature connection


Badly adjusted field voltage setting
Badly adjusted field current loop
Badly adjusted field-weakening bemf loop
Badly adjusted speed loop
Alarm time delay : 1.5 seconds

590+ Series DC Digital Converter

Trips and Fault Finding


Trip Message and Meaning

7-9

Possible Reason for Trip

SPEED FEEDBACK
The difference between speed feedback
and armature voltage feedback is
greater than the SPDFBK ALM LEVEL
parameter value
If FLD WEAK ENABLE parameter is
enabled, speed feedback is less than
10% when in the field weakening region

Analog tacho feedback polarity incorrect (terminals


G3 and G4)
The ENCODER SIGN parameters polarity is incorrect
Disconnection of wiring, including fibre optics
Tachogenerator failure
Tachogenerator coupling failure
Alarm time delay : 0.4 seconds

ENCODER FAILED
No speed feedback signal

The SPEED FBK SELECT parameter is set to ENCODER


but an optional Encoder board is not fitted
Where applicable, check fibre optic cable for
damage, bend radius, operating length - refer to
Microtach handbook.
Check cable and connections on wire-ended encoder

FIELD FAIL
Field current is less than 6% of rated
current when in Current Control mode

Open circuit motor field - check connection and


measure field resistance

Field current is less than 50mA when in


Voltage Control mode (with default
current burden of 15K)

Faulty operation of field controller


Where an ac supply feeds the onboard field
regulator, check connections FL1 & FL2 for line-to-line
voltage (rather than line-to-neutral) - L1 into FL1, L2
into FL2. Note that the 3-phase supply must be
present for mains synchronisation purposes.
For loads where no field supply is required, e.g. a
permanent magnet motor, set the FIELD ENABLE
parameter to disable to suspend this alarm.
Alarm time delay : 0.75 seconds

3-PHASE FAILED
3-phase supply failure

Total failure of supply, or missing phase of 3-phase


supply (detected under most circumstances) - check
supply to the controller, check high-speed thyristor
stack protection fuses, check power chassis coding
fuses.
Check the mains voltage of the Converter (refer to
Product Code). This alarm may not operate properly
with controller if the voltage is incorrect, i.e. wrong
unit or controller.

PHASE LOCK
Supply frequency is outside the
frequency band limits 45 - 65Hz

Check supply frequency


Synchronisation errors caused by distorted supply

5703 RCV ERROR

Trips and Fault Finding


Trip Message and Meaning

Possible Reason for Trip

OVER I TRIP
Current feedback value has exceeded
280% of rated current

(300% loading not exceeding 15ms or 325% not


exceeding 6.6ms is acceptable)
Motor armature windings failure - check insulation
resistance.
Badly tuned current loop
Faulty Converter - refer to SSD Drives

ACCTS FAILED
AC current transformer plug connection
to Converter power board missing

Check armature current transformer plug for correct


installation.
Frame 5 only : Load imbalance between the two
parallel power stacks

Note: The trip prevents the contactor closing


and the current loop activating without
armature current feedback - important
in the case of external stack controllers
where the thyristor stack is remote from
the control board.
AUTOTUNE ERROR
Speed feedback has exceeded 20% of
rated speed, or field current feedback
has exceeded 6% of rated field current

(Alarm only operates during the Autotune sequence).

AUTOTUNE ABORT
The Autotune sequence has been
aborted.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR


Maintenance
Because of its solid state design, the 590+ Digital drive has few items requiring service or
maintenance. Service typically is a matter of replacing fuses, checking electrical contacts, and
isolating problems in the overall system application.
Caution
Service procedures must be performed by qualified personnel with an understanding of
the dangers inherent in high voltage applications and the precautions necessary when
servicing industrial equipment. The customer is responsible for assessing the technical
competency of in-house service personnel.

Service Procedures
Required Tools and Equipment
Tools needed for routine service operations include basic hand tools screwdrivers, wrenches,
etc.

WARNING!
Only qualified service personnel should attempt to repair or replace parts in the
590+.
Isolate the entire 590+drive from electrical power before attempting to work on
it.

Preventive Maintenance
You should perform regular preventive maintenance every six months to ensure long life and
continued usefulness of the 590+. Keep the drive and its components clean, check auxiliary
fans if fitted, and make sure connections and mounting bolts have not loosened from vibration.
The control and field wires can be checked by gently attempting pulling the wires out of the
terminals. The terminals should hold the wires firmly in place.
All the remaining wires should be checked with a torque wrench. Refer to Chapter 11:
Technical Specifications - Termination Tightening Torque tables.

Repair
There are no user-serviceable components.
IMPORTANT: MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE UNIT - RETURN IT TO EUROTHERM DRIVES.

Saving Your Application Data


The Converter retains saved settings during power-down. You can download and upload this
back into the repaired unit, if necessary. You may, depending upon your knowledge of the fault,
attempt the back-up of your application data now, refer to Chapter 5: The Operator Station Copying an Application.
If the fault clearly lies within the MMI, then return the unit for repair.

Phase Assembly Removal Procedure


1. Referring to Figure 8-1 (590+) or Figure 8-2 (591+), remove the M12 screw (A). Undo the
four screws (B, C, D, E) which allows the CT plate and fuse assembly to be removed.
2. Unplug the thyristor gate leads and the heatsink overtemperature leads from the relevant
phase assembly trigger board. Remove the same leads from the adjacent phase assembly or
assemblies (this is necessary to gain complete access to the interconnecting plates.) If you
are removing the phase assembly from a 591+ (2Q) product, also disconnect the thyristor
suppression lead from the trigger boards.
3. Remove the trigger board by releasing the four M6 Sems nuts fixing the PCB to the
assembly. If you are working on a 590+ (4Q), remove the dummy trigger board, or if
working on a 591+ (2Q) remove the thyristor suppression board. Remove the air duct from
the top of the phase assembly to gain access to the DC interconnection plates.
Do not remove the trigger board support spacers.
4. Remove the DC interconnection plates between the phase assembly and its adjacent
assemblies, either output terminals or phase assemblies.
5. If changing an upper phase assembly on a 590+ or 591+ remove the top baffle. This is
achieved by pushing out the two end flaps of the plenum chamber and unclipping the top
baffle from the top cover baffle stops and the top of the phase assemblies. Remove the
vertical baffles between phase assemblies.
6. If changing a lower phase assembly on a 590+, remove the lower air duct.
7. Remove the complete phase assembly by removing the four M6 Sems nuts at the top and
bottom of the phase assembly.
Note: On the 591+ 2Q, the left hand screw retains the phase coding connection which should
be pushed to one side before lifting the phase assembly.
Phase Assembly Fitting Procedure
1. Position the repaired or spare phase assembly on to the back panel spacer. (Remember to reconnect the coding lead to the bottom of the phase assembly when working on a 591+ 2Q).
Check for correct orientation of the assembly. Fix in position with 4 x M6 Sems nuts and
tighten to the correct torque level.
Refit the interconnecting plate stacks between the phase assemblies. A stack of three plates
are used on a 1200 Amp unit, four on a 1700 Amp unit, five on a 2200 Amp unit and six on
a 2700 Amp unit. On a 4Q unit the plates interconnect both the upper and lower thyristors
and adjacent phase assemblies. On the 2Q unit the plates interconnect adjacent phase
assemblies. Tighten to the correct torque level.
Note: a) When fitting a spare phase assembly there may be some misalignment to the new
phase where the interconnection plates do not fit easily. In this case, loosen the trigger
support spacers which will allow adjustment of the support bars. Fit the interconnecting
plates and re-tighten all units, including spacers.
b) When re-assembling the interconnection plates it is important that a good electrical
contact is made between the plates and the aluminium heatsink. Apply a layer of `zincloaded jointing compound between the interconnection plates and the heatsink.
3. Refit the air duct on the phase assembly ensuring that the duct fits inside the side ducting of
the phase assembly.
4. Refit the trigger board (thyristor suppression board or dummy board as appropriate) and
secure with the M6 Sems nuts.
5. Reconnect the gate leads, thermostat and suppression lead as necessary. The gate leads
cannot be fitted incorrectly as they are polarised by the plugs.
6. Re-fit the top baffle (either plenum cover or lower 4Q air duct) and vertical baffles.
7. Replace the fuse.
8. Re-close the swing-frame.
9. Replace the trigger board connectors.

Principle of Operation
Note: Selection between Current Control or Speed Control (default) is
made by the I DMD ISOLATE (current demand isolate) parameter
using Digital I/P3 (Terminal C8). If ENABLED the Converter
operates as a current controller, and if DISABLED (the default) it
operates as a speed controller.

SETUP PARAMETERS

CURRENT LOOP
I DMD ISOLATE

Current Loop
The current loop accepts a demand from either the speed loop, or directly from the plant, and
forms an error signal which is the difference between demand and average value of feedback.
The error signal is fed into a Proportional + Integral compensator which produces the output of
the current loop, i.e. the firing angle signal.
In the Converter, the error signal is created in two different forms:
1. The average error is computed as the difference between demand and average value of
feedback and fed into the Integral part of the P + I algorithm.
2. The instantaneous error is computed as the difference between demand and instantaneous
value of feedback and is fed into the Proportional part of the P + I algorithm. This gives
higher transient performance since it does not contain any time lag, unlike the average which
has a built-in lag of 1/6 of mains cycle. However, the average is the true measurement of
torque which is the objective of the current control and this is not affected by the small time
lag in achieving zero steady-state error.
The firing angle signal is translated into a certain time delay from the mains zero cross point
(obtained via a Phase-Lock-Loop) and this results in a firing command being issued to the
thyristor stack every 1/6 of a mains cycle in steady-state.
Some special features of the current controller are discussed separately below.

Adaptive Current Control


The gain of a thyristor 6-pulse converter (voltage-time area over firing angle) drops dramatically
at discontinuous values of armature current. Therefore a gain boost is required in the current
controller to compensate for that.
In the Converter, this is handled by an adaptive algorithm which allows the current to follow the
demand in one step (firing) within the discontinuous region of operation.

Back EMF (BEMF) Estimate


With the motor at standstill, the firing angle for zero current is 120 degrees. When the motor is
rotating at different speeds the firing angle for zero current follows a cosine locus.
It is of paramount importance to track this locus as close as possible throughout the speed range
if the current loop bandwidth is to be maintained at its highest possible level during current
reversals from master to slave bridge and visa-versa.
There are two reasons for the loss of bandwidth at current reversals.
Firstly, the loss of converter gain needs to be compensated in an accurate way which is the
objective of the adaptive algorithm.
Secondly, the above algorithm also relies on the right start-up value of firing angle in the
incoming bridge in order to minimise both the "dead-time" (time interval of zero current referred
to below) as well as the rise time to the required current demand.
In order to get the right start-up value of firing angle the knowledge of the operating BEMF is
necessary. In the Converter, this is achieved by a combination of a hardware peak current
detector and appropriate software algorithm.

Control Loops
Bridge Changeover Delay
The bridge changeover "dead-time", i.e. time interval of zero current, is programmable from 1 to
1500 (via Reserved Menu) with a default value of 1.
For values from 1 to 6:
The delay can be set at multiples of 1/6 mains period, i.e. max. 6 x 3.33 = 20ms at 50Hz. This is
relevant for use with large power converters where it is advisable to allow more time for
snubber currents to subside before reversal is enabled. It is also relevant for motors with very
large armature inductance where zero current detection is more sensitive and therefore a "factor
of safety" in the bridge changeover delay is advisable.
For values from 7 to 1500:
The delay corresponds to 7 x 1.33s up to 1500 x 1.33s = 2ms maximum.

Manual Tuning
Note: This procedure is rarely used or required, if possible use Autotune.
You may need to perform a manual tuning as Autotune does have two limitations:
1. It requires the field to be switched off and therefore the shaft will need clamping when
autotuning a permanent-magnet motor or very rarely with a wound-field motor of relatively
high permanent magnetism.
2. Part 1 of Autotune determines the discontinuous to continuous boundary level, i.e. the
average value at which the armature current becomes "just" continuous. This is achieved by
automatically disabling the field and advancing the firing angle at small steps until the slope
of the current "envelope" changes substantially indicating continuous region of operation.
Part 2 of Autotune applies a step change in the current demand within the continuous region
as determined by Part 1. When the current feedback approaches the final settling value
within 1 to 2 steps, the autotune function terminates and returns the "FIELD ENABLE" to its
previous state. The P & I gains and the value of discontinuous boundary current should then
be saved.
If the value of boundary current (Part 1) is very high (larger than 150% or so), then the
Autotune Part 2 step change will be in the region above 200% which might result in
overcurrent trip. In this case it is advisable to set the I gain to a large enough value (typically
10) to give fast response throughout the discontinuous region, a low value for the P gain
(typically 1, not important since there is no effective armature time constant in the
discontinuous region to compensate for) and finally eliminate the adaptive mode by setting
"Discontinuous" to zero. At the same time though, one must disable the Missing Pulse alarm;
this is activated when the load current is above the "Discontinuous" level and in this case it
would give erroneous trips if left enabled. In order to disable this alarm the special "superpassword" reserved for SSD Drives personnel needs to be entered. Next in the "Reserved"
menu, which will then appear as a submenu of "SYSTEM", a parameter called SYS
HEALTH INHIB should be set to the hexadecimal value 0x0002.
The above suggestion assumes that the current limit will prevent the motor from operating in the
continuous region, i.e. above 150% in the example above. If this is not the case, as for example
when the current limit is set at 200%, then a manual tuning will be necessary.
Set the DISCONTINUOUS parameter to the correct value by disabling or disconnecting the
field, set the current limit to zero and start the drive. Gradually increase the current limit
observing the current feedback waveform (see Diagnostics below) on an oscilloscope beam.
When the pulses "just come together", with no zero interval between them, read the value of
current limit (or indeed current demand) and set the DISCONTINUOUS parameter to this value.
If this value is very high (above the current limit), then it should be set to zero and follow the
suggestion in 2 above. In this case the drive will not perform any adaption in the discontinuous
region, so some loss in performance may be noticed in the current loop response.

Subsequently either
a squarewave signal should be applied to the current demand input (Terminal A3) with
Current Demand Isolate (terminal C8) on
or "toggle" between two values of current limit into terminal A6 and operate in normal speed
loop mode.
Ideally this input signal should be offset above the Discontinuous level, such that the drive is
operating in the continuous current region. Then you could increase the value of I gain to give a
fast rise with no more than 10% overshoot and subsequently increase the P gain towards
critically damped response, i.e. practically no overshoot.

Tuning Hints
If the I gain is too high, the response will be underdamped (overshoot will be excessive with
long oscillatory settling). If the I gain is too low, the response will be overdamped (long
exponential rise).
With the I gain optimally set, if the P gain is too low the response will be overdamped. If P is
too high the response will revert to underdamped with the tendency to go totally unstable.

Diagnostics
The diagnostic point for "real" armature current is the first (left-hand side) test point below the
calibration panel. This will give 1.1V average for 100% current. It will also give the operating
bridge, i.e. it will be negative for the Master bridge (positive current demand) and positive for
the Slave bridge (negative current demand).

590+ Series DC Digital Converter

Control Loops

Speed Loop
The speed loop accepts a demand from either an outside loop (i.e. position loop) or directly from
the plant and forms the error signal which is the difference between demand and feedback. The
error signal is fed into a Proportional + Integral compensator which produces the output of the
speed loop, i.e. the current demand signal.
The integral gain is translated into a Time Constant (secs) in the MMI which defines more
clearly the function of the compensator against a certain load time constant.

Speed Loop Synchronised with Current Loop


The proportional part of the P+I algorithm is executed immediately before each run of the
current loop, thus ensuring minimum time lag and therefore maximum bandwidth.

Combined Analog Tacho / Encoder Feedback


By using the analog tacho f/b on the Proportional part of the P + I algorithm and the encoder f/b
on the Integral part (using similar principle as in the current loop), the Converter combines
maximum transient response with the increased steady-state accuracy of the digital feedback.
Please refer to SSD Drives Engineering Department for assistance in the use of this feature.

Current Demand Rate Limit (di/dt)


Access to the di/dt limit is currently reserved for SSD Drives personnel only in the Reserved
Menu.
This is a limit imposed on the rate of change of the current demand. It is to be used for motors
with commutation limitations, mechanical systems that cannot absorb rapid torque transients and
also as a means of limiting current overshoot for large current swings (e.g. 0 200%). The
default value is set at 35% (i.e. maximum allowable change is 35% of FLC in 1/6 mains cycle)
which has no practical effect on the current response between 0 and 100%.

Field Control
Set-up Notes
The setting of the P + I gains for the current controller is done manually in much the same way
as described in Chapter 4: Current Loop - Manual Tuning, and one convenient way is to
switch several times from "quench" to "standby" mode and observe the current response 0
50% for rise time and overshoot.
The setting of the field weakening gains is achieved by observing the armature voltage feedback
for overshoot and settling time. The EMF GAIN parameter defaults to 0.30 (real gain of 30) and
normally lies in the region 0.20 to 0.70 (larger settings normally lead to instability). The EMF
LEAD parameter should be set at around the time constant for the field current loop. It defaults
to 2.00 (200ms). Finally, the EMF LAG parameter defaults to 40.00 (4000ms) and it should
generally lie in the region of 10 to 50 times the "emf lead".
The tuning of the field weakening loop is also very dependent on the acceleration rate through
base speed and visa-versa. If armature voltage overshoot is a problem for rapid acceleration
rates, then the use of the "feedback lead/lag" compensator is recommended to limit the
overshoot as discussed above. If not, then the default values for the above bemf fbk gains are
recommended (i.e. disabled) which will probably allow further increase in the forward path
transfer function gains ("emf gain" and "emf lead") for faster field response.
In summary, the increased attenuation at the higher frequencies will allow an increase in the
gain whilst maintaining the desired phase margin. Bearing in mind that the negative angle of the
compensator lowers the angle curve, in order to maintain the desired phase margin (45 to 60
degrees) a reduction in the phase-margin frequency is required. This is the frequency at which
the log magnitude curve crosses the 0db line. Since the phase-margin frequency is indicative of
the speed of response of the system, its reduction should be kept to a minimum. This is
achievable by trying to keep the value of the corner-frequency 1 / T1 as low as possible by
setting T1 at values greater than 100ms or so. The upper limit for T1 will be dictated by the
settling time requirement.

590+ Series DC Digital Converter

Control Loops

9-5

Current Control
The field current loop can accept a demand directly from the plant and/or an outside field
weakening loop and forms the error signal which is the difference between demand and
feedback. The error signal is fed into a P + I compensator which produces the output of the field
loop, i.e. the field firing angle signal.
The firing angle signal is translated into a certain time delay from the mains zero cross point
(obtained via the same Phase-Lock-Loop as for the armature) and this results into a firing
command being issued to the field bridge every 1/2 of a mains cycle in steady-state.

Voltage Control
This offers the facility of an open-loop voltage control for motors which do not provide in the
nameplate the field current rating. The field voltage is controlled by the specified RATIO
OUT/IN which defaults to 90%. This is the maximum dc Volts that can be obtained for a given
ac RMS input in a single-phase rectifier, i.e. 370V dc for 415V ac supply. The specified ratio
determines directly the firing angle at which the controller operates and therefore the thermal
effects on the field resistance as well as mains voltage variations are not compensated for. It is
also worth noting that in this mode the field overcurrent alarm is not active (since there is no
current scaling) and therefore this mode is not recommended for use with supplies much greater
than the field voltage rating.

Field Weakening
The field weakening loop accepts a demand for MAX VOLTS (default 100%) and forms the
error signal which is the difference between demand and arm. volts feedback. The error signal is
fed into a Lead/Lag compensator which produces the output of the field weakening loop, i.e. the
field weakening demand. This gets subtracted from the field setpoint (default 100%) to produce
the field demand into the field current loop. A MIN FLD CURRENT parameter (default 10%)
limits the minimum level in the field weakening region.
The Lead/Lag compensator has a dc gain ("emf gain" = Kp), a lead time constant ("emf lead" =
T1) and a lag time constant ("emf lag" = T2).
Note: Field weakening is not possible when running with Armature Volts feedback. Although
field weakening can be enabled in this instance, a software interlock clamps the field
demand at 100% and will not allow the field weakening to reduce it.

Lead/Lag
The slight disadvantage of Lead/Lag { transfer function = Kp * ( 1+sT1 ) / ( 1+sT2 ) }
versus P + I { transfer function = Kp * ( 1+sT ) / sT } is that the DC gain is not "infinity"
and therefore there is a "finite" steady-state error. This is kept sufficiently small for values of
"emf gain" > 0.20 ( i.e. real 20).
The advantage of the Lead/Lag is that it allows greater attenuation at higher frequencies. The
high frequency gain is Kp T1 / T2 and therefore by keeping the ratio T2 / T1 high (generally at
values above 10) the log magnitude is reduced by 20log(T2/T1) for frequencies above 1 / T1.
An extra feedback lead/lag compensator has been added into the arm. volts f/b to minimise the
overshoot in volts. This is particularly useful when accelerating fast through base speed and
therefore increasing the motor bemf at a faster rate than the field current can possibly weaken,
due to the normally large field time constant. The ratio of "bemf fbk lead" / "bemf fbk lag"
should always be greater than 1 to give a "lead" function to allow the field to start weakening
early enough. However, it is not recommended to raise the ratio much higher than 2 to 3 times,
otherwise instability will start creeping in. The absolute setting of the above parameters in
milliseconds depends on the overall field time constant. The default value is set to 1 (100ms /
100ms) which means that the function is disabled.

Standby Field
When the armature current gets quenched, a timer starts timing-out and after a certain delay
("fld quench delay") it will either quench the field totally ("fld quench mode" = "quench") or
will reduce it to 50% of the current or voltage setpoint ("fld quench mode" = "standby"). This
applies to both current and voltage modes.

Technical Specifications

AC Line Choke (Frames 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5)


To correctly isolate the 590+ drive from the ac power system, and to protect other equipment
from transients on the power system, always use the recommended external ac line choke (or
alternatively a transformer may achieve the necessary isolation).
Note that the Frame 5 requires two ac line chokes (one in front of each of the paralleled
converters). This provides isolating impedance between the drive and its ac power source. It
also provides the necessary impedance between the paralleled converters, forcing them to
share the total motor current evenly. The Frame 5 drive must still use two ac line chokes when
a transformer is used for isolation, however, the chokes can be of a much lower inductance,
typically 3-5 H.
Drives below 100A Armature Current rating cannot achieve confromance with EN61800-3
Table 11 using only a 50H line choke. Capacitors must be fitted between phase and earth to
achieve conformance.

Earthing/Safety Details
Grounding

Permanent earthing is mandatory on all units because the earth leakage current exceeds 3.5mA
ac/10mA dc under normal operating conditions. Permanent earthing can be made in two ways:
1.

By using a copper conductor of at least 10mm cross-sectional area.

2.

By using a second conductor, through separate terminals electrically parallel to the


protective conductor.

Note: Each conductor itself must meet the local requirements for a protective earth
conductor.
Input Supply Details
(TN) and (IT)

Units with or without external filters are suitable for use on earth referenced (TN) supplies, but
units used with a filter are not recommended for non-earth referenced (IT) supplies..

Terminal Definitions (Digital/Analog Inputs & Outputs)


User inputs/outputs are IEC1131 compliant.
Digital Input

Digital Output
These outputs are active
high and source current
from the terminal to the
load. Thus the load must
be connected between the
output and the signal
ground. A free-wheel
diode is included in the
output to protect the
output transistor when
switching inductive loads
such as relays.
Analog Input/Output
Terminal blocks A, B, and
C are located on the
control board each block
being a 9 way plug-in
connector. In addition to
terminal blocks A, B and

The field regulator will control the field current
provided that the Nominal DC Output voltage
exceeds the field voltage by at least 10%.
i.e.

VAC = 1.11 x VDC


and

VDC = 1.1 x VFIELD

therefore

VAC = 1.22 x VFIELD

The external AC supply must be fitted with high


speed fuses to protect the field regulator. For
controllers with 10A field capability 10A fuses
should be used.
Note: When using an external ac input it is
important to have the correct phase relationship
on the terminals. The supply must be derived
from L1 (Red) and L2 (Yellow) phases directly or
indirectly through a transformer. L1 must be
connected to FL1, and L2 to FL2.

The DC output voltage at these terminals will

Voltage Control
The output voltage will be determined by the ratio
parameter in the field variables. The relationship
between the dc output voltage and AC input
voltage is determined by the equation:-

Vdc =

This terminal is the switched output from the

auxiliary supply at terminal D8. The output is
internally fused at 3A hence contactor coils
having a high pick-up current must be operated
via a slave relay.

Note: When using a Slave Relay, the contacts of


the Contactor Control Relay are internally
suppressed by a series connected resistor (680

contacts. Users should be aware that when the
Contactor Control Relay is De-energised, a
leakage current of approximately 2mA @ 220V
can be expected and this should be considered
when interfacing to these terminals. Typically,
there could be the energisation of very sensitive

Caution
The integration of this product into other apparatus or systems is not the responsibility of
SSD Drives, with respect to applicability, effectivity, or safety of operation of the other
apparatus or systems.

Requirements for EMC Compliance


All Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) potentially produce electrical emissions which are radiated
into the environment and conducted back into the ac supply. VSDs are inherently immune to
any additional external electrical noise. The following information is provided to maximise the
Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) of VSDs and systems in their intended operating
environment, by minimising their emissions and maximising their immunity.

Minimising Radiated Emissions


EN55011/EN55022 radiated emission measurements are made between 30MHz and 1GHz in
the far field at a distance of 10 to 30 metres (32.8 to 98.4 feet). Limits lower than 30MHz or in
close proximity are not specified. Emissions from individual components tend to be additive.

Use a screened/armoured cable between VSD/cubicle and motor containing the motor
protective earth (PE) connection. It should have a 360 screen termination. Earth screen at
both ends connecting to the motor frame and VSD/cubicle backplate. Maintain the screen
integrity using 360 terminations.

Note: Some hazardous area installations may preclude direct earthing at both ends of the
screen, in this case earth one end via a 1F 50Vac capacitor, and the other must be
directly earthed.

Keep unshielded cable as short as possible inside the cubicle.

Always maintain the integrity of the shield.

If the cable is interrupted to insert contactors etc., re-connect the screen using the shortest
possible route.

Keep the length of screen stripped-back as short as possible when making screen
connections.

Ideally use 360 screen terminations using cable glands or `U clips on power screen rails.

If a shielded cable is not available, lay unshielded motor cables in a metal conduit which will act
as a shield. The conduit must be continuous with a direct electrical contact to the VSD and
motor housing. If links are necessary, use braid with a minimum cross sectional area of 10mm2.
Note: Some motor gland boxes, conduit and conduit glands are made of plastic, if this is the
case, then braid must be connected in parallel to maintain screen integrity. In addition at
the motor end, ensure that the screen is electrically connected to the motor frame since
some terminal boxes are insulated from the frame by gasket/paint.

Earthing Requirements
IMPORTANT: Protective earthing always takes precedence over EMC earthing.

Protective Earth (PE) Connections


Note: In accordance with installations to EN60204, only one protective earth conductor is
permitted at each VSD protective earth terminal contacting point.
Local wiring regulations may require the protective earth connection of the motor to be
connected locally, i.e. not as specified in these instructions. This will not cause shielding
problems because of the relatively high RF impedance of the local earth connection.
590+ Series DC Digital Converter

12-2

Certification for the Converter


Control/Signal EMC Earth Connections
For compliance with EN60204 and EMC requirements, the 0V/signal ground must be
separately earthed. When a number of units are used in a system, these terminals should be
connected together at a single, local earthing point.
Control and signal cables for the encoder, all analogue inputs, and communications require
screening with the screen connected only at the VSD end. However, if high frequency noise is
still a problem, earth screen at the non VSD end via a 0.1F, 50Vac capacitor.
Note: Connect the screen (at the VSD end) to the VSD protective point, and not to the control
board terminals.

Cabling Requirements
Note: Refer to Chapter 11: Technical Specifications for additional Cabling Requirements.

Planning Cable Runs

Use the shortest possible motor cable lengths.

Keep electrically noisy and sensitive cables apart.

Keep electrically noisy and sensitive parallel cable runs to a minimum. Separate parallel
cable runs by at least 0.25 metres (0.8 feet). For runs longer than 10 metres (32.8 feet),
separation should be increased proportionally. For example if the parallel runs were 50m
(164 feet), then the separation would be (50/10) x 0.25m = 1.25m (164/32.8 x 0.8 = 4 feet).

Sensitive cables should cross noisy cables at 90.

Never run sensitive cables close or parallel to the motor cable for any distance.

Never run supply or motor cables in the same bundle as the signal/control and feedback
cables, even if they are screened.

Ensure EMC filter input and output cables are separately routed and do not couple noise
across the filter (i.e. bypass the filter).

Increasing Motor Cable Length


Because cable capacitance and hence conducted emissions increase with motor cable length,
conformance to EMC limits is only guaranteed with the specified ac supply filter option using a
maximum cable length as specified in Chapter 11: Technical Specifications.
Screened/armoured cable has significant capacitance between the conductors and screen which
increases linearly with cable length (typically 200pF/m but varies with cable type and current
rating).
Long cable lengths may have the following undesirable effects:

Producing increased conducted emissions which degrade the performance of the EMC filter
due to saturation.

Causing RCDs (Residual Current Devices) to trip due to increased high frequency earth
current.

Producing increased heating inside the EMC ac supply filter from the increased conducted
emissions.

These effects can be overcome by adding chokes at the output of the VSD.

EMC Installation Options


The unit, when installed for Class A operation, will be compliant with EN55011 (1991)/
EN55022 (1994) for radiated emissions, as described below.

Screening & Earthing (cubicle mounted, Class A)


Note: The installation requirements of local safety standards must be achieved regarding the
safety of electrical equipment for machines.
The unit is installed for Class A operation when mounted inside a cubicle having 10dB
attenuation between 30 and 100MHz (typically the attenuation provided by a metal cabinet with
no aperture of dimension greater than 0.15m (0.5 feet), using the recommended ac supply filter
and having met all cabling requirements.
Note: Radiated magnetic and electric fields inside the cubicle will be high and any components
fitted inside must be sufficiently immune.
The VSD, external filter and associated equipment are mounted on to a conducting, metal
mounting panel. Do not use cubicle constructions that use insulating mounting panels or
undefined mounting structures. Cables between the VSD and motor must be screened or
armoured and terminated at the VSD or locally on the back panel.

Single VSD - Single Motor


Apply a single point series earthing strategy for a single VSD mounted in a cubicle as shown.
The protective earth connection (PE) to the motor must be run inside the screened cable between
the motor and VSD and be connected to a separate star point earth terminal near the VSD.

Star Point Earthing
A star-point earthing policy separates `noisy and `clean earths. Four separate earth busbars
(three are insulated from the mounting panel) connect to a single earth point (star point) near the
incoming safety earth from the main supply. Flexible, large cross-section cable is used to ensure
a low HF impedance. Busbars are arranged so that connection to the single earth point is as
short as possible.

1 Clean Earth Busbar (insulated from the mounting panel)
Used as a reference point for all signal and control cabling. This may be further subdivided into
an analogue and a digital reference busbar, each separately connected to the star earthing point.
The digital reference is also used for any 24V control.
2 Dirty Earth Busbar (insulated from the mounting panel)
Used for all power earths, i.e. protective earth connection. It is also used as a reference for any
110 or 220V control used, and for the control transformer screen.
3 Metal Work Earth Busbar
The back panel is used as this earth busbar, and should provide earthing points for all parts of
the cubicle including panels and doors. This busbar is also used for power screened cables
which terminate near to (10cm/4 inches) the VSD - such as motor cables, braking choppers and
their resistors, or between VSDs. Use U-clips to clamp the screened cables to the back panel to
ensure optimum HF connection.
4 Signal/Control Screen Earth Busbar (insulated from the mounting panel)
Used for signal/control screened cables which do not go directly to the VSD. Place this busbar
as close as possible to the point of cable entry. `U clamp the screened cables to the busbars to
ensure an optimum HF connection.

Sensitive Equipment
The proximity of the source and victim circuit has a large effect on radiated coupling. The
electromagnetic fields produced by VSDs falls off rapidly with distance from the
cabling/cubicle. Remember that the radiated fields from EMC compliant drive systems are
measured at least 10m from the equipment, over the band 30-1000MHz. Any equipment placed
closer than this will see larger magnitude fields, especially when very close to the Converter.
Do not place magnetic/electric field sensitive equipment within 0.25 metres (0.8 feet) of the
following parts of the VSD system:

Variable Speed Drive (VSD)

Input or output chokes/transformers

The cable between VSD and motor (even when screened/armoured)

AC/DC brushed motors (due to commutation)

Relays and contactors (even when suppressed)

From experience, the following equipment is particularly sensitive and requires careful
installation.

Any transducers which produce low level analogue outputs (<1V) , e.g. load cells, strain
gauges, thermocouples, piezoelectric transducers, anemometers, LVDTs

Wide band width control inputs (>100Hz)

AM radios (long and medium wave only)

Video cameras and closed circuit TV

Office personal computers

Capacitive devices such as proximity sensors and level transducers

Mains borne communication systems

Equipment not suitable for operation in the intended EMC environment, i.e. with
insufficient immunity to new EMC standards

Requirements for UL Compliance


Motor Overload Protection
Note: An external motor overload protective device must be provided by the installer.
The maximum internal overload protection level (current limit) is 150% for 30 seconds and
200% for 10 seconds.
Motor overload protection is provided by means of the thermal device in the motor winding.
This protection cannot be evaluated by UL, hence it is the responsibility of the installer and/or
the local inspector to determine whether the overload protection is in compliance with the
National Electrical Code or Local Code requirements.

Branch Circuit/Short Circuit Protection Requirements


The controller requires branch circuit protection. Branch circuit protection requirements must be
in accordance with the latest addition of the National Electrical Code, NEC/NFPA-70.
UL Recognized Component (JFHR2) semiconductor fuses with current ratings and maximum
I2t ratings as specified below must be used in the controller. Refer to the table below for the
recommended fuse manufacturer and part number.

European Directives and the CE Mark


The following information is supplied to provide a basic understanding of the EMC and low
voltage directives CE marking requirements. The following literature is recommended for
further information:

Recommendations for Application of Power Drive Systems (PDS), European Council


Directives - CE Marking and Technical Standardisation - (CEMEP)
Available from your local trade association or SSD Drives office

EMC Installation Guidelines for Modules and Systems - (SSD Drives)


Available from your local SSD Drives office, part number HA388879

Short Form Overview of European Directives for Variable Speed Drives and Applications (SSD Drives)
Available from your local SSD Drives office, part number HA389770

The European machines and drives manufacturers via their national trade associations have
formed the European Committee of Manufacturers of Electrical Machines and Power
Electronics (CEMEP). SSD Drives and other major European drives manufacturers are working
to the CEMEP recommendations on CE marking. The CE mark shows that a product complies
with the relevant EU directives, in our case the Low Voltage Directive and, in some instances,
the EMC Directive.

CE Marking for Low Voltage Directive


When installed in accordance with this manual, the 590+ Series Converter is CE marked by SSD
Drives Ltd in accordance with the low voltage directive (S.I. No. 3260 implements this LVD
directive into UK law). An EC Declaration of Conformity (low voltage directive) is included at
the end of this chapter.

CE Marking for EMC - Who is Responsible?


Note: The specified EMC emission and immunity performance of this unit can only be achieved
when the unit is installed to the EMC Installation Instructions given in this manual.
According to S.I. No. 2373 which implements the EMC directive into UK law, the requirement
for CE marking this unit falls into two categories:
1.

Where the supplied unit has an intrinsic/direct function to the end user, then the unit is
classed as relevant apparatus.

2.

Where the supplied unit is incorporated into a higher system/apparatus or machine which
includes (at least) the motor, cable and a driven load but is unable to function without this
unit, then the unit is classed as a component.

Relevant Apparatus - SSD Drives Responsibility


Occasionally, say in a case where an existing fixed speed motor - such as a fan or pump - is
converted to variable speed with an add-on drive module (relevant apparatus), it becomes the
responsibility of SSD Drives to apply the CE mark and issue an EC Declaration of Conformity
for the EMC Directive. This declaration and the CE mark is included at the end of this chapter.
Component - Customer Responsibility
The majority of SSD Drives products are classed as components and therefore we cannot apply
the CE mark or produce an EC Declaration of Conformity in respect of EMC. It is therefore the
manufacturer/supplier/installer of the higher system/apparatus or machine who must conform to
the EMC directive and CE mark.

Legal Requirements for CE Marking
For compliance in Europe with EN61800-3 Table 11:

The CE marking of drives whose armature current >100A is applicable without


filtering.

The CE marking of drives whose armature current <100A is only applicable with
filtering.

IMPORTANT: Before installation, clearly understand who is responsible for conformance with the EMC
directive. Misappropriation of the CE mark is a criminal offence.
It is important that you have now defined who is responsible for conforming to the EMC
directive, either:
SSD Drives Responsibility
You intend to use the unit as relevant apparatus.
When the specified EMC filter is correctly fitted to the unit following EMC installation
instructions, it complies with the relevant standards indicated in the following tables. The fitting
of the filter is mandatory for the CE marking of this unit to apply.
The relevant declarations are to be found at the end of this chapter. The CE mark is displayed on
the EC Declaration of Conformity (EMC Directive) provided at the end of this chapter.
Customer Responsibility
You intend to use the unit as a component, therefore you have a choice:
1.

To fit the specified filter following EMC installation instructions, which may help you gain
EMC compliance for the final machine/system.

2.

Not to fit the specified filter, but use a combination of global or local filtering and screening
methods, natural migration through distance, or the use of distributed parasitic elements of
the existing installation.

Note: When two or more EMC compliant components are combined to form the final
machine/system, the resulting machine/system may no longer be compliant, (emissions
tend to be additive, immunity is determined by the least immune component). Understand
the EMC environment and applicable standards to keep additional compliance costs to a
minimum.

Applying for CE Marking for EMC


We have supplied a Manufacturers EMC Declaration at the end of this chapter that you can use
as a basis for your own justification of overall compliance with the EMC directive. There are
three methods of demonstrating conformity:
1.

Self-certification to a relevant standard

2.

Third party testing to a relevant standard

3.

Writing a technical construction file stating the technical rationale as to why your final
machine/system is compliant. An EMC competent body must then assess this and issue a
technical report or certificate to demonstrate compliance.
Refer to Article 10(2) of Directive 89/336/EEC.

With EMC compliance, an EC Declaration of Conformity and the CE mark will be issued for
your final machine/system.
IMPORTANT: Professional end users with EMC expertise who are using drive modules and cubicle
systems defined as components who supply, place on the market or install the relevant
apparatus must take responsibility for demonstrating EMC conformance and applying
the CE mark and issuing an EC Declaration of Conformity.

Which Standards Apply?


The standard applied to this unit covers both:
1.

Emission - these requirements limit the interference caused by operating (this) drive
module.

2.

Immunity - these requirements limit the effect of interference (on this unit) from other
electrical and electronic apparatus.

The following tables indicate the section of standard with which the unit complies, dependent
upon how the unit is installed and used.

Heatsink Cooling Fan Connections
When fitted, these fans are connected on the power board to FAN LIVE (F27), FAN
NEUTRAL (F24) and FAN COMMON (F23) as described below:
A single fan must be matched to the auxiliary supply and connected to F27 and F24.
Two fans using a 110/115V auxiliary supply must be connected in parallel to F27 and F24.
Two fans using a 220/240V auxiliary supply must be connected in series to F27 and F24
using F23 as the centre point.

Contactor Supply
The controller requires an ac or dc power
contactor in series with the main power
path to ensure correct power-up
sequencing. This contactor is directly
initiated by the Microcontroller via an
isolating relay which drives the contactor
coil with the same voltage as that of the
auxiliary supply.
This is achieved by the brown wire
connection from COIL LIVE (F28) to
RELAY (F25) and the blue wire
connection from COIL NEUTRAL (F21)
to CONTACTOR RETURN (F26).
However, if an alternative supply for the
contactor coil is required move the brown
wire from F25 to F22 , and move the blue
wire from F21 to F25. The external coil
supply can now be switched using a voltfree contact between terminals D5 and D6.

(590+ - 4 Quad and 591+ - 2 Quad; Low and High Volt)
Power supplies for the controller are generated from the single phase auxiliary supply via a
Switched Mode Power Supply. The incoming supply is directly rectified to provide a high
voltage dc power rail. A high voltage transistor switches this rail on to the primary of a high
frequency transformer, the output of which is rectified and smoothed to provide the dc power
supply rails. The 5V dc rail is monitored via a reference element and a control signal returned
via an opto-isolator to the control element of the high voltage switching transistor. The other dc
rails (-15V & +24V dc) are generated via separate secondary windings which are rectified and
smoothed, with individual linear regulators providing 15V dc rail. The SMPS operates over an
input voltage range of 110V to 240V ac 10%, 50/60Hz.

UDP Support
The P3 port can be used to transfer an ASCII representation of the converter's settings between
the Converter and a host computer.
The transfer uses a simple ASCII file structure and XON / XOFF protocol. This is provided by
most communications packages. Host computers tested include IBM PCs XT/AT, running both
Windows and MSDOS, Psion Organiser 3 and many more.
Transferring data from a host computer to the Converter is defined as Uploading.

5703 Support
This unit provides the facility to run a line of converters in speed-lock without the use of a 5720
Quadraloc controller; for accurate speed-holding, encoder feedback is required. Ratioed speedlocking is supported, although the unit is not intended to replace the Quadraloc in applications
requiring high accuracy.
A 16-bit speed signal is passed between drives through a fibre-optic link and the P3 port on each
Converter (a port otherwise used only off-line for the upload and download of EEPROM data).
The port operates RS232 compatible signal levels, the 5703/1 converts these signal levels to
fibre optic signals for transmission and from fibre optics to RS232 for reception.

Hardware Description
The 5703/1 is housed in a DIN rail mounted box and is provided with a cable to connect into the
P3 port. The cable is 400mm long to limit transmission errors, the primary unit -to-unit
interconnection is intended to be achieved by a fibre optic cable.
The 5703 unit itself is simply an electric signal-to-light converter and does not alter the signal in
any way, this is achieved within the software data of the Converter.
It is fitted with one fibre optic receiver and two fibre optic transmitters, the fibre optic receiver
has a fixed function to receive data from the preceding unit while the transmitter sends data to
the following unit. The additional transmitter can be used either to re-transmit the incoming
signal or provide a second transmission of the output signal, this gives the unit wide
functionality. When the link is in the normal right hand position, assuming the board is mounted
with the fibre optics downward, the second transmitter repeats the output signal. In the left hand
position it repeats the input signal.
The 5703/1 can be configured to point to any relevant parameter in the block diagram, the
default connections are such that the scaled input is connected to the "additional speed demand"
and the output to the "speed demand".

Commissioning the 5703/1
The P3 port is configured for 5703 support using the MMI. The
Converters RS422 serial link will then allow control over the scaling
of the input by an operator station or by a host processor. Refer to
Chapter 15: The Default Application for the block diagram, and

The Inputs of the Drive
The speed setpoint from the 5703/1 enters the drive via the P3 port and, after scaling, is added
together with analog inputs 1, 2 and 3 (ramped).

IN BASIC TACHO-FOLLOWER MODE, ALL THE ANALOG INPUTS MUST BE


DISABLED TO PREVENT LOSS OF ACCURACY, yet it may be necessary in some
applications to provide analog inputs for trim signals or inch setpoints:
1. The ramp input may be disabled by taking terminal C7 (Ramp Hold) permanently high; the
ramp is automatically cleared when the drive is quenched, and its output will never move
from (exactly) zero. The ramp input may often be of use in line master drives; but the ramp
should be disabled in slave drives. Note that the P3 setpoint may be passed through the ramp
function; in such a case, the analog input to the ramp (terminal A4) is automatically
disconnected.
2. Analog input 1 (terminal A2) is used for inch setpoints. During normal running, the terminal
is shorted to 0V and the deadband function is used so that no signal at all passes to the
summing junction. The analog inch setpoints are set a little above the threshold of the
deadband so as to give the required inching speeds, forward or backward. Selection between
analog inching and absolutely zero analog input is thus accomplished automatically.
3. Analog input 2 (terminal A3) may be disabled by writing zero to its scaling block; this will
normally be done through the MMI at commissioning, but may be overridden by the serial
link. Alternatively, this input may be used for a local analog trim.
