A - Programming

A.1 Menu display modes

The programming menu can be displayed in two modes, which can be selected using the Access mode parameter (04 -
DRIVE CONFIG menu):
• Easy (default) only the main parameters are displayed.
• Expert all the parameters are displayed.

A.2 Programming of “function block” analog and digital input signals
The signals, variables and parameters of each single “function block” of the drive are interconnected in order to achieve
the configurations and controls inside the control system.
These can be managed and modified using the keypad, PC configurator or fieldbus programming.
The programming mode is based on the following logic:

Src (source; i.e.: Ramp ref 1 src, PAR: 610)

This term defines the source of the function block input, i.e. the signal to be processed in the function
block.
The different configurations are defined in the relative selection lists.

Mon (display; i.e.: Ramp ref 1 mon, PAR: 620)

This term refers to the variable output from the function block, which is the result of the calculations
performed on the actual block.

Function block

Parameter

Input selected Variable

src Monitor
Parameter

A.3 Variable interconnections mode

The source (src) allows the desired control signal to be assigned to the function block input.
This operation is performed by using specific selection lists.

Possible control signal sources:

1 – Physical terminal
The analog and digital signals come from the terminal strip of the regulation card and/or from those of the expansion cards.

2 – Drive internal variables

Internal drive control system variables, from “function block” calculations, sent via keypad, PC configurator or fieldbus.

Practical example
The following examples illustrate the philosophies and methods with which more or less complex operations are performed
in the single “function blocks”, the results of which represent the output of the block.

• Example: Changing the Speed Reference source

The main drive reference (in the default configuration) Ramp ref 1 mon (PAR: 620) is generated by the output of the func-
tion block “Ramp setpoint Block”.
Its default source is the Analog input 1 mon signal, from the output of the function block “Analog input 1 Block”, which in

VDL200 • Functions description and parameters list 5

 this case refers to analog input 1 of the signal terminal strip.
To change the reference source from the analog input to a digital reference inside the drive, the input signal must be
changed to “Ramp setpoint Block”.
Enter the Ramp ref 1 src parameter (PAR: 610) and set a new reference, selecting it from among those listed in the L_ML-
TREF selection list, for example Dig ramp ref 1 (PAR: 600).

• Example: Inverting the analog reference signal

To invert the “Analog input 1X Block” output signal, the value of the An inp 1X sign src parameter (PAR: 1626), which
has a default setting of Null (no operation), must be changed by selecting the source of the command signal from among
those listed in the L_DIGSEL 2 selection list, for example Digital input X mon, One (function always enabled), etc.

* -1
Terminal input Analog input 1X Block Analog input 1X mon
* +1

Null An inp 1X sign src

+1
Ramp ref 1 src Ramp Setpoint Block Ramp ref 1 mon
-1

Null Ramp ref invert src

The diagrams above illustrate the internal processing philosophy of the single “function blocks” and the result of these
changes on the other interconnected “function blocks”.

Note ! This section contains a brief description of the functions of the other parameters in the function blocks not included for the changes in the
example.

The Ramp ref invert src parameter (PAR: 616) can be used to select the source for the command to reverse the “Ramp
setpoint” function block output.
The output signal from the “Ramp setpoint” block is displayed in the Ramp ref 1 mon parameter (PAR: 620).

4.2 552 Regulation mode ENUM SSC 0 3 RWZ FVS

The VDL200 is capable of operating with different control modes:
0 SSC (Sensorless Scalar Control)
1 Flux vector OL
2 Flux vector CL
3 Autotune
The open loop SSC mode is the simplest type of asynchronous motor control, as the only parameters required are the
rated voltage, current and frequency of the motor.
The open loop SSC control mode is factory-set and does not require any speed feedback. The natural variation in speed
generated by machine load induction (slippage) can be compensated using Slip comp and Slip comp filter.
In V/f mode a single drive can be used to control several asynchronous motors, even of different sizes, connected in
parallel, provided the sum of the currents of the single motors is less than the drive rated current. If using several motors
connected in parallel, be sure to provide adequate thermal protection for each single motor.
Closed loop control is also possible in the SSC mode. It requires a speed reading by a digital encoder on the motor shaft;
to enable encoder feedback, you must set parameter 2444 Slip comp mode =1.
An optional card is necessary in order to acquire the encoder signals. The speed feedback supplied by the encoder is used
to compensate motor slippage in the different load conditions, to achieve accurate control and greater precision of the
actual motor speed.

With the sensorless vector control (Flux vector OL) mode, high speed and torque precision can be achieved at low mo-
tor rpm. The drive has a powerful algorithm that uses a self-tuning procedure to obtain all the electric measurements of the
motor. This allows the speed and position of the motor shaft to be estimated, enabling operation similar to that of a drive with
feedback, both in terms of the response in torque to load variations, and of the regularity of rotation even at very low rmp.

In the field oriented vector mode (Flux vector CL) an encoder is required for closed loop feedback. With this mode it is
possible to achieve extremely high dynamic responses thanks to the regulation bandwidth, maximum torque even with the
rotor blocked, speed and torque control. Numerous regulation parameters can be used to adjust the drive to each specific
application, for instance adaptive gains, system inertia compensation, etc..

Note! When the drive is set to Flux vector CL mode you must set PAR 2132 Encoder mode = “DIGITAL FP” or “DIGITAL F” (15 - ENCODER CONFIG
menu).

If the Startup wizard procedure is not used, self-tuning of the motor parameters is possible in the self-tuning mode (Autotune).
This procedure must be used for both self-tuning with the engine standing still and with the motor turning.

5.2 – RAMPS
The lift application envisages an S-shaped ramp function with the possibility of setting 4 independent jerks and linear acceleration
and deceleration factors, as in the standard profile illustrated in the figure below.

Acc end jerk Dec ini jerk

Acceleration Deceleration

Dec end jerk

Acc ini jerk
Stop deceleration
Speed ref 1 Spd 0 ref thr

The Acc ini Jerk, Acceleration and Acc end jerk values used to execute the acceleration ramp are calculated by multiplying the cor-
responding parameters by the acceleration ramp factor (Percent acc factor), while the Dec ini jerk, Deceleration and Dec end jerk
values used to execute the deceleration ramp are calculated by multiplying the corresponding parameters by the deceleration ramp
factor (Percent dec factor, PAR 11056).

When the Start command is removed, the reference speed is zero regardless of the reference selected in the multispeeds. In this fi-
nal part of the profile the jerk deceleration values are used directly (not multiplied by Percent dec factor, PAR 11056) with the Stop
deceleration parameter as the linear deceleration. The factors for the final section of the profile are also used in case of a Stop lift
emergency condition.

8 When the delay before opening the brake has elapsed the Start lift command is sent and movement is enabled.

Sequence of movement:
1 The motor is started and moves slowly at the speed set in Smooth start speed for the time indicated in Smooth start
delay
2 At the end of Smooth start delay, movements are managed by the multispeeds and S-shaped ramp
3 When the set speed is exceeded, the Brake 2 mon output signal can be used to check that the brake has actually been
opened
4 The EFC function with space control can be used to change to a slower speed
5 When the Start forward/reverse signal is lowered the signal indicating arrival at the floor is enabled and the start lift
signal is disabled
6 The start command can be sent again until the drive reaches zero speed: the operating conditions are restored.

Stopping sequence:
1 When zero speed is reached the DC stop command is enabled (SSC control)
2 The application waits the time needed to reach zero speed and sends the command to close brakes 1 and 2
3 It waits the time necessary for the brakes to close (Brake close delay) and, if the current is to be reduced with a ramp, it
waits for the current limit to reach zero. The internal Enable lift, arrival zone and DC brake signals are then lowered.
4 The application waits the time set in Contactor open delay and checks that the current supplied is zero, before sending
a command to open the contactors.

It is essential to make sure that whenever a drive alarm condition is generated or the drive is disabled, the drive is stopped
and a command is sent to open the contactors.

motor torque when the brake is closed, which would cause mechanical strain in the cabin.
To avoid this phenomenon when the brake is closed the current limits are brought to the current value in use and then
lowered on the ramp.

If set to 1 the soft speed is automatically selected after the start command regardless of the selected multispeed. The
duration of the smooth speed depends on the Smooth start delay parameter: if this parameter is set to zero the selected
multispeed is used and not the soft speed. This setting is used in systems with a reducer, as it helps to overcome initial
friction before starting with the profile.
If set to 2 an even slower starting mode is set, which uses the start jerk of the variable acceleration in the smooth start
phase. Depending on the values set in Smooth start speed and Smooth start delay the jerk value is calculated at the
end of the soft start phase with a linear ramp that changes this jerk from 0 to the calculated value.
The use of a variable value jerk obtains a variable start acceleration that follows a parabolic trajectory, enabling extremely
reduced variations in initial speed. This setting is mainly used in systems with gearless motors.

5.4 – MECHANICAL DATA
The parameters described in this menu are used to define the mechanical and physical features of the system.

Mechanical constants
The mechanical constant defines the ratio between motor rpm and distance travelled by the cabin.
The ConstMech can be calculated in two ways, depending on which conversion method is used.

- Directly: Mechanical constant = System speed/(Full scale speed/60)

- Mechanical data: Mechanical constant = (π *Pulley diameter)/Reduction gear ratio

Pulley diameter

Gearbox ratio Rope weight

Motor Gearbox
Pulley
Car weight

Load weight

Counter weight

The mechanical constant is calculated when the drive is turned on and re-calculated each time one of the parameters used to deter-
mine this value is modified (Mechanical calc mode, Full scale speed, Contract speed, Pulley diameter, Gearbox ratio).
The method used to calculate the mechanical constant can be selected regardless of the control mode (SSC, Flux vector OL, Flux
vector CL) or the unit of measure to be used.

Weights and inertia

Entering the mechanical features of the system makes it possible to calculate the total inertia applied to the motor.
After modifying these parameters the calculated inertia value is automatically saved in the “Inertia comp” parameter to enable cor-
rect inertia compensation.
The value of the inertia that can be entered in the “Inertia“ parameter in the “16 - SPEED REG GAINS” menu is displayed to calcu-
late the speed loop parameters more accurately. This operation is performed automatically when PAR 11162 Calc spd reg gain is
enabled.

5.5 – DISTANCE
Use of the distances facilitates positioning of the deceleration sensors and is helpful for managing short floors.
The aim of the function that considers distances is to start decelerating from high speed in order to reach the approach speed in
proximity to the landing zone.
Up to a maximum of 8 different slow down distances can be managed (real distance between the start of the sensor and the floor)
associated with the different multispeeds. The distance to be used is selected after enabling the drive, before the cabin starts to
move. Different distances cannot be selected while the cabin is travelling.
If the slow down distance is shorter than the real deceleration distance for the selected target speed, the speed is automatically
limited so that the stop is always correct. When this speed limiter is enabled a Speed target alarm (warning) is generated.

Distance function: Speed limits

If the slow down sensor is met during acceleration, the distance required to terminate the acceleration and deceleration phases may
be greater than the distance available: in that case the last acceleration jerk is increased to enable correct landing.

Also note that when the position sensor is not enabled in the landing zone, its exact length is not known. To ensure correct decel-
eration this distance is estimated on the basis of the value entered in the Landing zone dist parameter.
When this is equal to zero the distance is calculated on the basis of the value of the low speed and deceleration parameters and
shown in the Landing zone space parameter. The user should make sure this distance is approximately the real length of the land-
ing zone.
In FOC mode the distance is calculated by reading the encoder position.
In the SSC and SLS modes the distance is estimated (SpdRef*Time) and is thus subject to errors due to the difference between the
real speed of the motor and the speed reference.

When mode 0 (Autoselect) is selected, Slow speed is automatically connected to the multispeed with absolute value of
less and other than zero. If repositioning speeds with a value of less than the Slow speed are used, the multispeed cor-
responding to the floor approach speed must be set.
When mode 9 (Null) is selected the floor approach spaces are never controlled. In this case the profile depends exclu-
sively on the multispeed selected.

5.5.10 11130 Enable landing sel

INT16 0 0 1 RW
FVS
Setting for enabling space control in the landing zone.
This function enables the cabin to arrive exactly at floor level by controlling the position of the encoder in the landing zone
sensor. Position control is only possible if an encoder is used (normally in FOC-BRS). SSC and SLS modes simply gener-
ate an appropriate profile on the position reference.
When the function is enabled, the Slow speed, PAR 11120 (speed at which the cabin enters the landing zone) no longer
depends on the relative multispeed but is calculated automatically according to the jerk and deceleration values to enable
stopping without exceeding the set limits.
The value of Slow speed (PAR 11120 = 1...8) is calculated using the jerk and deceleration values not multiplied by the
ramp factor.
During the landing procedure the speed profile is calculated using the fifth-degree polynomial method.
Direct arrival at floor level is also possible, without using the Slow speed. This is done by setting the Slow speed multi-
speed value to zero.

Given the solution that has been selected to calculate the speed profile, before enabling the landing zone function it is im-
portant to verify the exactness of the spaces that have been entered (for both slow down and landing), and of the mechani-
cal constants. Incorrect spaces could result in sudden decelerations and errors in arrival at floor level.

5.6 – EMERGENCY MODE
The possibility of operating on an emergency module power supply has been implemented in the drive, to overcome the problem of
sudden power failures.
The emergency operation condition signal must be connected to the Emergency command input (digital input 3 as default) which,
if active, disables the undervoltage alarm so that the drive can operate powered on the DC link by the EMS emergency module
(which is in turn powered by a buffer battery pack).
In order to use batteries with a lower power rating, a function has been implemented to allow the desired direction of travel to be
selected before starting an emergency start procedure.
The direction is selected after testing the movement in both directions, choosing the one that requires less current (for more details
see EMS manual).
In case of a blackout the drive can be powered by an Emergency Module Supplier (EMS) or by an Uninterruptible Power Supply
(UPS).
The emergency function signal must be connected to the input of the Emergency Mode command (default digital input DI3).

Operation with Emergency Module Supplier (EMS)

If digital input 3 DI3 is active, the Undervoltage (UV) alarm refers to the value set in parameter 448 (menu 4), allowing the drive to
run powered on the DC link. See the VDL200 Quick Start manual (paragraph 7.3.3) and the EMS Manual for the connection.

Operation with Single-phase Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)

When the emergency is activated by digital input DI3, the Drive can be powered by a 230V single-phase UPS. See the VDL200
Quick Start manual (paragraph 7.3.3) for the connection.

Arrival at floor in Emergency

For both closed-loop and open-loop configurations, arrival at the floor in an emergency is managed by trying to optimize the request
for current to the emergency modules.
The drive can select the more favorable direction for arriving at the floor without forward/reverse movements, thereby protecting the
parts in emergency.

FVS
Enabling of automatic selection of preferred direction before an emergency start.
0 OFF
1 ON
2 Recommended

This parameter lets you select how the drive calculates the more favorable riding direction of the cabin when it is in emer-
gency mode.
If 0 is selected, the drive does not calculate the more favorable direction, which is commanded manually.
If 1 is selected, as soon as the drive is in emergency condition it moves the motor with alternating forward and reverse
movements, calculating the value of the current delivered in each direction, and selects the more favorable one (less cur-
rent requested).
If 2 is selected (recommended mode), the drive evaluates the more favorable direction without making alternating forward
and reverse movements (avoiding requests for current from the EMS or UPS), already knowing the more favorable direc-
tion because it had already calculated it based on the value of current delivered and on the DC-Link voltage. If the drive
was in regeneration before the emergency, it keeps the same riding direction in emergency; if the drive was not in regener-
ation but was delivering current at a value below the value set in parameter PAR 11284 Detection Limit, it keeps the same
riding direction. Otherwise, the drive changes riding direction and considers the previous one unfavorable.

5.8 –PRE - TORQUE
The Pre-torque function helps to guarantee a linear start without any initial acceleration. This is possible by setting a torque value
that corresponds to the load before opening the brake. The value of the initial torque applied to the motor and the direction of the
torque applied can be supplied by installing a load cell on the lift cabin. The load cell signal is acquired via the analog input and ap-
propriately scaled if using the Pre-torque function.
If a load cell is not installed, a fixed torque value can be used, only supplying the direction of torque. In that case the fixed torque
value is only optimised for one load condition.

Plc1 fault Cont feedback Contactor feedback signal error
Plc2 fault Brake feedback Brake feedback signal error
Plc3 fault Door feedback Door feedback signal error
Plc6 fault Speed limited Warning of speed limit to guarantee stop
Plc7 fault Up/low limit Speed limit exceeded in power factor regulation zone

All alarms are associated with a parameter to configure the action taken when the alarm is activated.
Activity: used to set the action to be performed after activation of the alarm, as follows.

Action
Ignore The alarm is not included in the alarm list, it is not included in the alarm log, it is not signalled on the
digital outputs, commands to the drive are not modified.
Warning The alarm is included in the alarm list, it is included in the alarm log, it is signalled on the digital
outputs, First alarm information is updated, Enabled alarms information is updated, commands to the
drive are not modified.
Disable The alarm is included in the alarm list, it is included in the alarm log, it is signalled on the digital out-
puts, First alarm information is updated, Enabled alarms information is updated, a stop command is
sent, the motor is disabled and stops due to inertia.
Fast Stop The alarm is included in the alarm list, it is included in the alarm log, it is signalled on the digital
outputs, First alarm information is updated, Enabled alarms information is updated, a Stop command
is sent. The drive is set to zero speed with the maximum available current; when the Speed 0 delay
signal is activated the drive is disabled.
Lift Fast stop When there is an alarm occurrence, lift will be stopped (ramp reference is set to zero) immediately
with fast ramp, after that it will remain in alarm state. Attention: this will cause the cabin to stop out of
floor !
Lift stop When there is an alarm occurrence, lift will continue to run until next stop condition, after that it will
remain in alarm state.

a) Computation of the normalization factors necessary for regulation

b) Computation of the estimated values for the motor parameters necessary for regulation

Rated voltage, Rated speed, Rated frequency, Rated current, Cos phi, Basic voltage and Basic frequency must be entered (the Cos
phi default value can be used if this value it not present on the plate). After entering these parameters, send a Take parameters
command to calculate (a) and (b) above. The motor cannot be enabled until the Take parameters command has been set. If some
results are inconsistent, or if the motor is much smaller than the inverter, an error message is displayed indicating a numerical ca-
pacity overflow and the previous set of parameters is restored in the “Mot plate data” sub-menu.

erated by machine load induction, known as slippage, can be compensated by the speed feedback supplied by the encoder in SSC

According to international standards, positive references are associated with clockwise motor rotation, seen from the con-
trol side (shaft). To ensure correct operation, the regulation algorithms ensure that positive speed references correspond to
positive speed measurements.
If the motor pulley is mounted on the side opposite the command side, it will turn in an anticlockwise direction when the
speed is positive: to make the pulley turn in a clockwise direction, the motor phase sequence is modified, which inverts
the speed measurement sign. To restore the correct speed measurement sign, invert the incremental encoder A+ and A-

For further details reference should be made to the description of the Speed fbk loss alarm and to the SFL alarms chapter
according to the type of feedback.

Note ! For the correct interpretation of the cause of the alarm trigger, it is necessary to transform the hex code indicated in parameter 15.13 SpdFb-
kLoss code, PAR 2172 , in the corresponding binary and verify in the encoder table that the active bits and related description are used.
Example with digital incremental encoder:
PAR 2172 = 3 (hex value)
In the table “Speed fbk loss [22] alarm with digital incremental encoder” 0x03 is not indicated in the value column.
0x03 should be contemplated as a bitword with meaning 00011 -> bit 0 and bit 1 . The following causes simultaneously intervene:

Bit 0 = 0x01 Cause: no impulses or disturbance on incremental channel A.

Bit 1 = 0x02 Cause: no impulses or disturbance on incremental channel B.

16 - SPEED REG GAINS
The speed adaptive allows different speed regulator gains to be obtained according to the speed or another value. The behaviour of
the speed regulator can thus be configured in the best way for the specific application requirements.

Note ! C
urrent, flux and voltage regulators can be set using the self-tuning procedure. If this is not successful, current and flux regulators can be tuned
manually (this does not apply to voltage regulators, whch must not be modified by the user). The speed regulator must be tuned manually.
Gains are usually adjusted according to the drive speed.

Total gains used by the speed regulator are calculated as shown in the following examples. Results are in engineering units:
Speed reg P1 gain (PAR 2200)
Total proportional gain = * Speed reg P gain (PAR 2236)
100%

20.2 - FUNCTIONS/DC BRAKING

The drive is capable of managing a direct current injection phase. During this phase a braking torque is generated that can be used
to stop the motor or block the rotor.
The following characteristics can be configured:
- signal used to activate the direct current injection phase
- direct current injection phase activation mode
- delay between activation of request for DC braking and start of direct current injection
- duration of direct current injection phase
- intensity of injected direct current
This function is useful for:
- slowing the motor running at any speed to zero speed
- slowing a motor driven by the load before applying the start command
- keeping the rotor blocked at the end of a deceleration ramp following a stop command.
This function cannot be used for intermediate braking as the motor speed must be brought to zero.
During the direct current injection phase the kinetic energy of the motor is dissipated as heat in the motor.
The following parameters allow complete control of the function.

In “Off” mode the direct current injection phase is never executed.

In “At stop” mode the direct current injection phase is executed when the stop command is sent and the speed reference
threshold = zero has been reached.

Example:
With the motor running at any speed, when the stop command is enabled the ramp output decreases according to the
selected ramp time, when the speed reference threshold = zero is reached PAR 934 Reference = 0 the direct current
injection phase is enabled. When the command is enabled after the delay configured in PAR 3154 DC brake delay direct
current injection starts. PAR 3156 DC brake time is used to configure the duration of the injection phase and PAR 3158
DC brake curr is used to configure the intensity of the injection phase current.

In “At command” mode the direct current injection phase is executed when the DC braking command configured using
parameter PAR 3150 DC braking command src is sent.
Example:
Motor running driven by load. When the drive is enabled and the DC braking command is sent the direct current injection
phase is activated. When the command is enabled after the delay configured in PAR 3154 DC brake delay direct current
injection starts. PAR 3156 DC brake time is used to configure the duration of the injection phase and PAR 3158 DC brake
curr is used to configure the intensity of the injection phase current.
If the command is an impulse shorter than the time programmed with PAR 3156 DC brake time, the direct current injection

If the command is an impulse longer than the time programmed with 3156 DC brake time, the direct current injection
phase continues for as long as the command is present.

In “OnCmd & AtStop” modes the direct current injection phase is executed when one of the two conditions described in

Note! During braking the Enable command must be enabled. If this command is not present or is removed during the braking process, the drive
blocks the inverter bridge and the motor stops due to inertia, without braking.
During the direct current injection phase the Run command should not be enabled. If the Run command is sent to the drive, the ramp output
starts following the set reference; direct current output is produced in any case. The moment the DC braking command is removed there is
immediately a speed step without performing a change in the ramp.
During the direct current injection phase, for the Jog command follow the instructions provided for the Run command.

20.3.5 3216 Motor fan type ENUM Servo fan 0 1 ERW FVS
This parameter is used to set the type of motor cooling system.

0 Auto fan
1 Servo fan

Auto fan indicates the presence of a fan unit mounted on the motor shaft that therefore turns at a speed proportional to the mo-
tor speed. Cooling is not very effective at low motor speeds.

Servo fan indicates the presence of an independent fan unit that therefore always runs at the rated speed. It ensures optimum
cooling efficiency at all motor speeds.
When the current motor speed is below (PAR 2004 Rated speed / 2) and PAR 3216 Motor fan type = Auto fan; , the MOTOR
OVERLOAD protection intervention time must be reduced as cooling is insufficient.

At below (PAR 2004 Rated speed / 2) the protection intervention time is reduced by reducing the direct current of the MOTOR
OVERLOAD function.
When the motor speed is equal to (PAR 2004 Rated speed / 2) the direct current of the MOTOR OVERLOAD function is equal
to PAR 2002 Rated current * PAR 3206 Motor service factor, , whereas below that limit it is modified following a linear pattern
until PAR 2002 Rated current * 3206 Motor service factor * PAR 3218 Motor derat factor when the motor speed reaches
zero.

The overload current of the MOTOR OVERLOAD function is obtained by PAR 2002 Rated current * 3206 Motor service factor
* PAR 3202 Motor ovld factor and is the maximum current that can circulate in the motor. If the MOTOR OVERLOAD function
is enabled the drive automatically sets the torque current limit so that Iout max. does not exceed this value.

With the MOTOR OVERLOAD function a current equal to the Overload level is supplied to the motor for the maximum time set
in PAR 3204 Motor ovld time, The slower the motor speed, the shorter the time allowed (see figure at beginning of chapter).

After the set time, the MOTOR OVERLOAD function automatically sets the torque current limit so that Iout max. does not exceed
the direct current of the MOTOR OVERLOAD function.
When the motor current speed exceeds (PAR 2004 Rated speed / 2) and PAR 3216 Motor fan type = Auto fan, the direct cur-
rent is not reduced as cooling is sufficient.
When PAR 3216 Motor fan type = Servo fan, the direct current is not reduced as cooling is sufficient.

tion intervention time must be reduced as cooling is insufficient.
At below (PAR 2004 Rated speed / 2) sthe protection intervention time is reduced by reducing the direct current of the
MOTOR OVERLOAD function.

When the motor speed is equal to (PAR 2004 Rated speed / 2) ) the direct current of the MOTOR OVERLOAD function

VDL200 • Functions description and parameters list 75

 is equal to PAR 2002 Rated current * PAR 3206 Motor service factor, whereas below that limit it is modified following a
linear pattern until PAR 2002 Rated current * PAR 3206 Motor service factor * PAR 3218 Motor derat factor when the
motor speed reaches zero.

The overload current of the MOTOR OVERLOAD function is obtained by PAR 2002 Rated current * PAR 3206 Motor
service factor * PAR 3202 Motor ovld factor and is the maximum current that can circulate in the motor. If the MOTOR
OVERLOAD function is enabled the drive automatically sets the torque current limit so that Iout max. does not exceed this
value.

With the MOTOR OVERLOAD function a current equal to the Overload level is supplied to the motor for the maximum time
set in PAR 3204 Motor ovld time, The slower the motor speed, the shorter the time allowed (see graphs).
After the set time, the MOTOR OVERLOAD function automatically sets the torque current limit so that Iout max. does not
exceed the direct current of the MOTOR OVERLOAD function.

When the motor current speed exceeds (PAR 2004 Rated speed / 2) and PAR 3216 Motor fan type = Auto fan, the direct
current is not reduced as cooling is sufficient.
When PAR 3216 Motor fan type = Servo fan, the direct current is not reduced as cooling is sufficient.

If the value of parameter 3202 Motor ovld factor is 100 % the overload current of the Motor Overload function is equal
to the continuous current of the Motor Overload function. In this case the drive behaves as if the overload cycle has been
executed and so sets the torque current limit so that Iout max is not more than the continuous current, i.e. Rated current
(PAR 2002) * Motor service factor (PAR 3206) * Motor derat factor (PAR 3218).
We recommend setting parameter 3218 Motor derat factor to a value so that Rated current (PAR 2002) * Motor service
factor (PAR 3206) * Motor derat factor (PAR 3218) produces a result that is more than the motor magnetisation current.

1 Activate management of the double parameter set by enabling parameter 3300 Par set enable.
2 Copy set 0 onto set 1 using command 3306 Par set 0 to 1 copy.
This creates an initial parameter base in set 1 to which changes can be made.
Save the parameters.
3 Activate set 1 using parameter 3302 Par set select src.

VDL200 • Functions description and parameters list 77

 To select set 1 manually, set this parameter to “One”.
Otherwise select the desired source.
4 Modify the parameters in set 1 as necessary.
5 Save the parameters.

You can change the set being used by changing the source selected in parameter 3302 Par set select src. This can only
be changed with the drive disabled.

When the double parameter set is active, the number of the set being used is shown next to the number of each parameter
on the keypad.

Modifying and saving parameters:

When the double parameter set is active, any parameters that need to be the same in the two sets must be modified in
each set separately.
Parameters are only saved in the set that is active at the time. To save both sets, you must first save one and then select
and save the other.

Note! Any changes to the parameters regarding the “parameter sets”, performed when enabled, will be lost at the next switching unless a Par set 0
