Safety instructions
What this chapter contains
This chapter contains the safety instructions you must follow when installing,
operating and servicing the drive. If ignored, physical injury or death may follow, or
damage may occur to the drive, the motor or driven equipment. Read the safety
instructions before you work on the unit.

To which products this chapter applies

The information is valid for the whole range of the product DCS800, the converter
modules DCS800-S0x size D1 to D7, field exciter units DCF80x, etc. like the
Rebuild Kit DCS800-R00-9xxx.

Usage of warnings and notes

There are two types of safety instructions throughout this manual: warnings and
notes. Warnings caution you about conditions which can result in serious injury or
death and/or damage to the equipment, and advise on how to avoid the danger.
Notes draw attention to a particular condition or fact, or give information on a
subject. The warning symbols are used as follows:

Dangerous voltage warning warns of high voltage which can cause

physical injury or death and/or damage to the equipment.

General danger warning warns about conditions, other than those

caused by electricity, which can result in physical injury or death
and/or damage to the equipment.
Electrostatic sensitive devices warning warns of electrostatic
discharge which can damage the equipment.

Installation and maintenance work

These warnings are intended for all who work on the drive, motor cable
or motor. Ignoring the instructions can cause physical injury or death
and/or damage to the equipment.

WARNING!

• Only qualified electricians are allowed to install and maintain

the drive!
• Never work on the drive, motor cable or motor when main power is
applied.
Always ensure by measuring with a multimeter (impedance at least
1 Mohm) that:
1. Voltage between drive input phases U1, V1 and W1 and
the frame is close to 0 V.
2. Voltage between terminals C+ and D- and the frame is
close to 0 V.
• Do not work on the control cables when power is applied to the
drive or to the external control circuits. Externally supplied control
circuits may cause dangerous voltages inside the drive even when
the main power on the drive is switched off.
• Do not make any insulation resistance or voltage withstand tests
on the drive or drive modules.
• Isolate the motor cables from the drive when testing the insulation
resistance or voltage withstand of the cables or the motor.
• When reconnecting the motor cable, always check that the C+ and
D- cables are connected with the proper terminal.

Note:

• The motor cable terminals on the drive are at a dangerously high

voltage when the main power is on, regardless of whether the
motor is running or not.
• Depending on the external wiring, dangerous voltages (115 V,
220 V or 230 V) may be present on the relay outputs of the drive
system (e.g. SDCS-IOB-2 and RDIO).
• DCS800 with enclosure extension: Before working on the drive,
isolate the whole drive system from the supply.

Grounding

These instructions are intended for all who are responsible for the
grounding of the drive. Incorrect grounding can cause physical injury,
death and/or equipment malfunction and increase electromagnetic
interference.

WARNING!

• Ground the drive, motor and adjoining equipment to ensure

personnel safety in all circumstances, and to reduce
electromagnetic emission and pick-up.
• Make sure that grounding conductors are adequately sized and
marked as required by safety regulations.
• In a multiple-drive installation, connect each drive separately to
protective earth (PE ).
• Minimize EMC emission and make a 360° high frequency
grounding (e.g. conductive sleeves) of screened cable entries at
the cabinet lead-through plate.
• Do not install a drive equipped with an EMC filter to an
ungrounded power system or a high resistance-grounded (over 30
ohms) power system.

Note:

• Power cable shields are suitable as equipment grounding

conductors only when adequately sized to meet safety regulations.
• As the normal leakage current of the drive is higher than 3.5 mA
AC or 10 mA DC (stated by EN 50178, 5.2.11.1), a fixed protective
earth connection is required.

Printed circuit boards and fiber optic cables

These instructions are intended for all who handle the circuit boards
and fiber optic cables. Ignoring the following instructions can cause
damage to the equipment.

WARNING! The printed circuit boards contain components sensitive to

electrostatic discharge. Wear a grounding wrist band when handling
the boards. Do not touch the boards unnecessarily.

Use grounding strip:

ABB order no.: 3ADV050035P0001

WARNING! Handle the fiber optic cables with care. When unplugging
optic cables, always grab the connector, not the cable itself. Do not
touch the ends of the fibers with bare hands as the fiber is extremely
sensitive to dirt. The minimum allowed bend radius is 35 mm (1.38 in.).

Mechanical installation
These notes are intended for all who install the drive. Handle the unit
carefully to avoid damage and injury.

WARNING!

• DCS800 sizes D4 ... D7: The drive is heavy. Do not lift it alone. Do
not lift the unit by the front cover. Place units D4 and D5 only on its
back.
DCS800 sizes D5 ... D7: The drive is heavy. Lift the drive by the
lifting lugs only. Do not tilt the unit. The unit will overturn from a tilt
of about 6 degrees.
• Make sure that dust from drilling does not enter the drive when
installing. Electrically conductive dust inside the unit may cause
damage or lead to malfunction.
• Ensure sufficient cooling.
• Do not fasten the drive by riveting or welding.

Operation
These warnings are intended for all who plan the operation of the drive
or operate the drive. Ignoring the instructions can cause physical injury
or death and/or damage to the equipment.

WARNING!

• Before adjusting the drive and putting it into service, make sure
that the motor and all driven equipment are suitable for operation
throughout the speed range provided by the drive. The drive can
be adjusted to operate the motor at speeds above and below the
base speed.
• Do not control the motor with the disconnecting device
(disconnecting mains); instead, use the control panel keys and
, or commands via the I/O board of the drive.
• Mains connection
You can use a disconnect switch (with fuses) to disconnect the
electrical components of the drive from the mains for installation
and maintenance work. The type of disconnect switch used must
be as per EN 60947-3, Class B, so as to comply with EU
regulations, or a circuit-breaker type which switches off the load
circuit by means of an auxiliary contact causing the breaker's main
contacts to open. The mains disconnect must be locked in its
"OPEN" position during any installation and maintenance work.
• EMERGENCY STOP buttons must be installed at each control
desk and at all other control panels requiring an emergency stop
function. Pressing the STOP button on the control panel of the
drive will neither cause an emergency stop of the motor, nor will
the drive be disconnected from any dangerous potential.
To avoid unintentional operating states, or to shut the unit down in
case of any imminent danger according to the standards in the
safety instructions it is not sufficient to merely shut down the drive
via signals "RUN", "drive OFF" or "Emergency Stop" respectively
"control panel" or "PC tool".
• Intended use
The operating instructions cannot take into consideration every
possible case of configuration, operation or maintenance. Thus,
they mainly give such advice only, which is required by qualified
personnel for normal operation of the machines and devices in
industrial installations.
If in special cases the electrical machines and devices are in-
tended for use in non-industrial installations - which may require
stricter safety regulations (e.g. protection against contact by
children or similar) - these additional safety measures for the
installation must be provided by the customer during assembly.

Note:

• When the control location is not set to Local (L not shown in the
status row of the display), the stop key on the control panel will not
stop the drive. To stop the drive using the control panel, press the
LOC/REM key and then the stop key .

Start-up
Chapter overview
This chapter describes the basic start-up procedure of the drive. A more detailed
description of the signals and parameters involved in the procedure can be found
in section Signal and parameter list.
488H

General
The drive can be operated:
− locally from DriveWindow, DriveWindow Light or DCS800 Control Panel
− respectively remote from local I/O or overriding control.

The following start-up procedure uses DriveWindow (for further information about
DriveWindow, consult its online help). However, parameters can also be changed
with DriveWindow Light or the DCS800 Control Panel.

The start-up procedure includes actions that need only be taken when powering up
the drive for the first time in a new installation (e.g. entering the motor data). After
the start-up, the drive can be powered up without using these start-up functions
again. The start-up procedure can be repeated later if the start-up data needs to be
altered.

Refer to section Fault tracing in case problems should arise. In case of a major
489H

problem, disconnect mains and wait for 5 minutes before attempting any work on
the drive, the motor, or the motor cables.

 23

Start-up procedure
The Safety Instructions at the beginning of this manual have to be observed with
49 0H

extreme care during the start-up procedure!

The start-up procedure should only be carried out by a qualified electrician.

Check the mechanical and electrical installation the drive according to the DCS800
Hardware Manual (3ADW000194).

Checking with the power switched off

Check the settings of:
− the main breaker (e.g. overcurrent = 1.6 * In, short circuit current = 10 * In,
time for thermal tripping = 10 s),
− time, overcurrent, thermal and voltage relays,
− the earth fault protection (e.g. Bender relay)

Check the insulation of the mains voltage cables or busbars between the
secondary side of the dedicated transformer and the drive:
− disconnect the dedicated transformer from its incoming voltage,
− check that all circuits between the mains and the drive (e.g. control /
auxiliary voltage) are disconnected,
− measure the insulation resistance between L1 - L2, L1 - L3, L2 - L3, L1 -
PE, L2 - PE, L3 - PE,
− the result should be MΩs

Check the installation:

− crosscheck the wiring with the drawings,
− check the mechanical mounting of the motor and pulse encoder or analog
tacho,
− make sure that the motor is connected in a correct way (armature, field,
serial windings, cable shields),
− check the connections of the motor fan if existing,
− make sure that the converter fan is connected correctly especially in
modules size D6 and D7 were star or delta connection is possible,
− if a pulse encoder is used make sure that pulse encoder's auxiliary voltage
connection corresponds to its voltage and that the channel connection
corresponds to correct direction of rotation,
− check that the shielding of the pulse encoder's cable is connected to the TE
bar of the DCS800,
− if an analog tacho is used make sure that it is connected to the proper
voltage input at the SDCS-CON-4:
X3:1 - X3:4 (90 - 270 V)
X3:2 - X3:4 (30 - 90 V)
X3:3 - X3:4 (8 - 30 V)
− for all other cables make sure that both ends of the cables are connected
and they do not cause any damage or danger when power is being
switched on

Start-up

3ADW000193R0601 DCS800 Firmware Manual e f

24

Measuring the insulation resistance of the motor cables and the motor:
− isolate the motor cables from the drive before testing the insulation
resistance or voltage withstand of the cables or the motor,

Instructions how to measure the insulation resistance

− measure the insulation resistance between:

1. + cables and PE,
2. - cables and PE,
3. armature cables and field cables,
4. field - cable and PE,
5. field + cable and PE,
− the result should be MΩs

Setting of Jumpers:
The boards of the DCS800 include jumpers to adapt the boards to different
applications. The position of the jumpers must be checked before connecting
voltage. For specific jumper settings consult the DCS800 Hardware Manual
(3ADW000194).

Drive data
Check following items for each drive and mark the differences in the delivery
documents:
− motor, analog tacho or pulse encoder and cooling fan rating plates data,
− direction of motor rotation,
− maximum and minimum speed and if fixed speeds are used,
− speed scaling factors:
e.g. gear ratio, roll diameter,
− acceleration and deceleration times,
− operating modes:
e.g. stop mode, E-stop mode,
− the amount of motors connected

 25

Checking with the power switched on

There is dangerous voltage inside the cabinet!

Switching the power on:

− prior to connecting the voltage proceed as follows:
1. ensure that all the cable connections are checked and that the
connections can't cause any danger,
2. close all doors of enclosed converter before switching power on,
3. be ready to trip the supply transformer if anything abnormal occurs,
4. switch the power on

Measurements made with power on:

− check the operation of the auxiliary equipment,
− check the circuits for external interfaces on site:
1. E-stop circuit,
2. remote control of the main breaker,
3. signals connected to the control system,
4. other signals which remain to be checked

Connecting voltage to the drive:

− check from the delivery diagrams the type of boards and converters which
are used in the system,
− check all time relay and breaker settings,
− close the supply disconnecting device (check the connection from the
delivery diagrams),
− close all protection switches one at a time and measure for proper voltage

Manual tuning of the field current controller:
− connect DriveWindow to the drive and choose local mode,
− monitor Mot1FldCurRef (1.29) and FldCurRefM1 (3.30),
− set M1FldMinTrip (30.12) = 0 %,
− set M1FldRefMode (45.05) = M1FldRefExt,
− give On via DriveWindow,
− use M1FldRefExt (45.06) to step the field current controller,
− tune the field current controller by means of M1KpFex (44.02) and M1TiFex
(44.03),
o steps size: about 2 % - 5 % of nominal field current (do not hit any
limits during the step and the step response, e.g. max. field current,
or supply voltage),

Armature current controller

To keep a PI-controller as fast as possible idealistically the integral part should
Control
stay at zero. The worst case is that the integral part is running into the limits and
principle
thus needs a long time to recover. To prevent this and to achieve an integral part
as small as possible two feed forwards are used for the current controller:
1. During discontinuous current the signal from the current controller is
boosted by means of the discontinuous current adaptation, depending on
discontinuous current limit, current reference and EMF. The discontinuous
current limit has to be determent during the commissioning.
2. Additionally the EMF itself is used as feed forward. Unfortunately it is not
possible to measure the EMF directly. It has to be calculated by means of
following formula:

EMF = U A − ( RA * I A + LA * )

Speed controller
When tuning the drive, change one parameter at a time, then monitor the effect on
Basics
the step response and possible oscillations. The effect of each parameter change
must be checked over a wide speed range and not just at one point. The set speed
controller values mainly depend on:
− the relationship between the motor power and the attached masses,
− backlashes and natural frequencies of the attached mechanics (filtering)

The step response tests must be carried out at different speeds, from minimum up
to maximum speed, at several different points. The whole speed range must also
be tested carefully, e.g. at 25 % - 30 % of maximum speed (step has to be in base
speed range) and 80 % of maximum speed (step has to be in field weakening
area) in order to find any oscillation points.
A suitable speed step is about 2 % of maximum speed. A too large step reference
or incorrect values of the speed controller might force the drives into torque /
current limits, damage the mechanical parts (e.g. gear boxes) or cause tripping of

Flux linearization
In case the motor needs to be used in the field weakening area the flux

linearization has to be set. The flux linearization is needed because of the non-
linear relation of flux and field current due to saturation effects of the field winding.

Flux of DC-motor versus field current

The magnetization of the motor starts to saturate at a certain field current and thus
the flux does not increase linearly. For this reason the field current cannot be
directly used to calculate the flux inside the motor.
In base speed area EMF and speed are directly proportional because the flux is
kept constant:

Example:
If the nominal armature voltage is 440 V and the motor is running at half speed
with full flux, then the armature voltage is about 220 V. Now the flux is reduced to
50 % at constant speed, then the armature voltage drops to about 110 V.
Since the EMF is directly proportional to the flux it is possible to define a
relationship between the field current and the flux by means of measuring the
armature voltage without load (= EMF).

Thus the main idea of the flux linearization is to find field currents which produces
desired EMF-voltage at a certain speed. The flux linearization is done by means of
a function block defined by 3 values:
− field current at 40 % flux, FldCurFlux40 (44.12),
− field current at 70 % flux, FldCurFlux70 (44.13),
− field current at 90 % flux, FldCurFlux90 (44.14)
The intermediate values are interpolated. During commissioning all 3 parameters
must be set, if the flux linearization is needed.

Start and stop sequences

General
The drive is controlled by control words [MainCtrlWord (7.01) or UsedMCW (7.04)]
respectively. The MainStatWord (8.01) provides the hand shake and interlocking
for the overriding control.
The overriding control uses the MainCtrlWord (7.01) or hardware signals to
command the drive. The actual status of the drive is displayed in the MainStatWord
(8.01).
The marks (e.g. n) describe the order of the commands according to Profibus
standard. The overriding control can be:
− AC 800M via DDCS communication,
− serial communication (e.g. Profibus),
− hardware signals - see CommandSel (10.01) = Local I/O,
− master-follower communication,
− Adaptive Program or
− application program.

Field excitation
General
Depending on the application the DCS800 has the capability to use several
different kinds of field exciters or combinations of them. The differences of the field
exciters and their functions are explained here.

Field Reversal
Changing the field current direction is needed when the armature converter has
only one bridge (2-quadrant). Field reversal is changing the direction of the field
current. Thus the direction of the speed is changing and it is possible to regenerate
energy back into the mains. For example to decelerate a large inertia.
To initiate the field reversal the sign of TorqRefUsed (2.13) is taken and defines
the desired direction of the field current. Armature converters with two anti-parallel
bridges (4-quadrant) do not require field reversal.

Overview field reversal and optitorque

Field reversal is activated by means of parameter FldCtrlMode (44.01):

Field
To prevent field reversal from continuous toggling due to a too small torque
reference
reference, a torque reference hysteresis is available. The hysteresis is symmetrical
hysteresis
and is set by FldRefHyst (45.10):
If

TorqRefUsed (2.13)

FldRefHyst (45.10)

Field reference hysteresis

With ForceFldDir (45.07) it is possible to force and clamp the field current direction.
Force field
This gives the user the possibility to control the field current direction or change it
current
in case of need. Thus unnecessary field current changes at low torque are
direction
prevented and it is also possible to release field reversal for certain occasions, e.g.
jogging or E-stop.

The physical reversal time can be reduced by increasing the input voltage of the
Reversal time
field exciter.
Please note that the output voltage of the field exciter is limited by means of
M1PosLimCtrl (45.02) or M2PosLimCtrl (45.16). This can also increase the
physical reversal time.

Optitorque
Due to high inductances of motors, the field reversal takes a relatively long time. In
certain cases this time can be reduced by means of optitorque - see FldCtrlMode
(44.01). In case the process requires only a small torque during field reversal, the
field current is decreased and the armature current is increased prior to the field
current change. This speeds up the field reversal. The rate of the field current
reduction depends on the process. E.g. if the speed direction is changed rather
slowly, the required torque may also be quite small. This allows the reduction of
the field current. Thus by means of optitorque it is possible to shorten the field
reversal time.

In optitorque mode the field current will be reduced proportionally to TorqRefUsed

Field current
(2.13). The relation between TorqRefUsed (2.13) and field current is defined by
reference
FldRefGain (45.11):

Field current reference gain

For example with FldRefGain (45.11) = 20 %, 100 % field current is generated at

TorqRefUsed (2.13) = 20 %.

Field current monitoring

During normal operation the field current is compared with M1FldMinTrip (30.12).
Field
The drive trips with F541 M1FexLowCur [FaultWord3 (9.03) bit 8] if the field
minimum trip
current drops below this limit.
During field reversal the situation is different. M1FldMinTrip (30.12) is disabled for
FldCtrlMode (44.01) = Fix/Opti, EMF/Opti, Fix/Rev/Opti or EMF/Rev/Opti. In this
case the trip level is automatically set to 50 % of FldCurRefM1 (3.30). The drive
trips with F541 M1FexLowCur [FaultWord3 (9.03) bit 8] if 50 % of FldCurRefM1
(3.30) is still undershot when FldMinTripDly (45.18) is elapsed.

If actual flux and armature voltage of the motor cannot follow the field current
Flux reversal
during field reversal it is necessary to delay the active field direction.
FluxRevMonDly (45.08) is the maximum allowed time within Mot1FldCurRel (1.29)
and the internal motor flux doesn’t correspond to each other during field reversal.
During this time F522 SpeedFb [FaultWord2 (9.02) bit 5] is disabled.

Field Heating
Field heating (also referred to as “field warming and field economy”) is used for a

couple of reasons.
Previous generations of DC-drives used voltage-controlled field supplies, meaning
that the only thing the field supply could directly control was the field voltage. For
DC-motors to maintain optimal torque it is important to maintain the field current.
Ohm’s law (U = R*I) tells us that voltage equals resistance multiplied by current.
So as long as resistance remains constant, current is proportional to voltage. But
field resistance increases with temperature. Therefore, a cold motor would have a
higher field current than a warm motor, even though voltage remained unchanged.
To keep the resistance and thus the current constant, the field was left on to keep

it warm. Then the voltage-controlled field supply works just fine.

The new generation of drives, including all field supplies used with the DCS800,
are current controlled. Thus the field supply directly controls field current. This
means that field heating may no longer be necessary when the DCS800 is
employed.
Another reason field heating is used is to keep moisture out of the motor.
Following parameters are used to turn on and control field heating:
− FldHeatSel (21.18),
− M1FldHeatRef (44.04)

There are basically two modes of operation. In both modes, the field current will be

Field exciter mode

General
The standard DCS800 module can be operated as large field exciter by simply
setting parameters. It is either controlled by a DCS800 armature converter or can
be configured as stand alone field exciter. Thus the current of the converter
[ConvCurAct (1.16)] equals the field current of the motor. For these configurations
an overvoltage protection (DCF505 or DCF506) is mandatory.

DC-breaker
General
The DC-breaker is used to protect the DC-motor or - in case of too low mains
voltage or voltage dips - the generating bridge of the drive from overcurrent. In
case of an overcurrent the DC-breaker is forced open by its own tripping spring.
DC-breakers have different control inputs and trip devices:
− an On / Off coil with a typical time delay of 100 to 200 ms,
− a high speed tripping coil (e.g. Secheron = CID) to trip the DC-breaker
within 2 ms from e.g. the drive,
− an internal tripping spring which is released by overcurrent and set
mechanically
There are different ways how to control the DC-breaker depending on the available
hardware and the customers on / off philosophy. Following are the most common
examples.

In the above example both, the AC- and the DC-breaker are controlled by the

DC BreakAck (10.23). In case the main contactor acknowledge is missing F524
MainContAck [FaultWord2 (9.02) bit 7] is set. In case the DC-breaker
acknowledge is missing A103 DC BreakAck [AlarmWord1 (9.06) bit 2] is set, is
forced to 150° and single firing pulses are given.
The DC-breaker can be tripped actively by the command Trip DC-breaker.

Command Trip DC-breaker

Command Trip DC-breaker

The firmware sets the:

− command Trip DC-breaker (continuous signal) [CurCtrlStat1 (6.03) bit 14]
and
− command Trip DC-breaker (4 s pulse signal) [CurCtrlStat1 (6.03) bit 15]

− F502 ArmOverCur [FaultWord1 (9.01) bit 1] or
− F539 FastCurRise [FaultWord3 (9.03) bit 6] (see chapter Motor protection) 491H

In case a digital output - see group 14 - is assigned to one of the two signals, it is
updated immediately after detecting the fault and thus actively tripping the DC-
breaker.

Position counter
General
The position counter is used for position measurements. It can be synchronized,
that is preset, with an initial value. The counter output value and its initial value are
32-bit signed values. The 32-bit position value is sent to and received as two 16-bit
values. Thus the low word dose not possess a sign.

Counting procedure
The position counting is only possible when using an encoder, see M1SpeedFbSel
(50.03). Its measurement mode is selected by means of M1EncMeasMode (50.02)
and PosCountMode (50.07). Counting is increasing when the motor is rotating
forward and decreasing when the motor is rotating backward. A loss free algorithm
is used in order to avoid an increasing error due to rounding errors.

Synchronization
The position counter can be synchronized with an initial value. This initial value is
set by means of PosCountInitLo (50.08) and PosCountInitHi (50.09).
At the synchronization event the position counter output - PosCountLow (3.07) and
PosCountHigh (3.08) - is preset with the initial value and SyncRdy [AuxStatWord
(8.02), bit 5] is set:

PosCountInitLo (50.08) Ö PosCountLow (3.07)

PosCountInitHi (50.09) Ö PosCountHigh (3.08)

The synchronization command is chosen by means of SyncCommand (10.04). It

can either be SyncCommand [AuxCtrlWord (7.02), bit 9] or hardware. The fastest
synchronization is achieved by the encoder zero pulse. Synchronization by DI7 is
delayed due to its scan time and additional hardware filter times.
The synchronization can be inhibited by setting SyncDisable [AuxCtrlWord (7.02),
bit 10].
SyncRdy [AuxStatWord (8.02), bit 5] can be reset by means of ResetSyncRdy
[AuxCtrlWord (7.02), bit 11].
With PosSyncMode (50.15) either single or cyclic synchronization is selected. With
single synchronization, the next synchronization event must be released with
ResetSyncRdy [AuxCtrlWord (7.02), bit 11].

I/O configuration
Chapter overview
This chapter describes the I/O configuration of digital and analog inputs and
outputs with different hardware possibilities.

Digital inputs (DI’s)

The basic I/O board is the SDCS-CON-4 with 8 standard DI’s. All 8 standard DI’s
can be replaced with SDCS-IOB-2 and extended by means of one or two RDIO-01
digital I/O extension modules. Thus the maximum number of DI’s is 14.

The hardware source is selected by:

− DIO ExtModule1 (98.03) for DI9 to DI11
− DIO ExtModule2 (98.04) for DI12 to DI14 and
− IO BoardConfig (98.15)

Note:
The maximum amount of digital I/O extension modules is two regardless if an
AIMA-01 board is used.

SDCS-CON-4 / SDCS-IOB-2
On the SDCS-CON-4 the standard DI's are filtered and not isolated. On the SDCS-
IOB-2 the standard DI’s are filtered and isolated. Selectable hardware filtering time
(DI7 and DI8 on the SDCS-IOB-2):
− 2 ms or 10 ms (jumper S7 and S8)
Input voltages:
− 24 VDC to 48 VDC, 115 VAC or 230 VAC depending on the hardware
− for more details see Hardware Manual
Scan time for DI1 to DI6:
− 5 ms
Scan time for DI7 and DI8:
− 3.3 ms / 2.77 ms (synchronized with mains frequency)

1st and 2nd RDIO-01

The extension DI’s are isolated and filtered. Selectable hardware filtering time:
− 2 ms or 5 ms to 10 ms
Input voltages:
− 24 VDC to 250 VDC, 110 VAC to 230 VAC
− for more details see RDIO-01 User’s Manual
Scan time for DI9 to DI14:
− 5 ms connected at SDCS-CON-4
− 14 ms connected via SDCS-COM-8

Attention:
To ensure proper connection and communication of the RDIO-01 boards with the
SDCS-CON-4 use the screws included in the scope of delivery.

Digital outputs (DO’s)

The basic I/O board is the SDCS-CON-4 with 7 standard DO’s. Standard DO8 is
located on the SDCS-PIN-4. All 8 standard DO’s can be replaced with SDCS-IOB-
2 and extended by means of one or two RDIO-01 digital I/O extension modules.
Thus the maximum number of DO’s is 12.

The hardware source is selected by:

− DIO ExtModule1 (98.03) for DO9 and DO10
− DIO ExtModule2 (98.04) for DO11 and DO12
− IO BoardConfig (98.15)

Note:
The maximum amount of digital I/O extension modules is two regardless if an
AIMA-01 board is used.

SDCS-CON-4 / SDCS-IOB-2
On the SDCS-CON-4 the standard DO’s are relay drivers. DO8 is located on the
SDCS-PIN-4 and a isolated by means of a relay. If the SDCS-IOB-2 is being used
DO6 and DO7 are isolated by means of optocouplers, while the others (DO1 to
DO5 and DO8) are isolated by means of relays.
Output values SDCS-CON-4:
− DO6 to DO7 max. 50 mA / 22 VDC at no load
− for more details see Hardware Manual
Output values SDCS-PIN-4:

Set the node numbers, transmission speed and the communication supervision
In all bus systems unique node ID numbers are required and have to be set in the
armature converter and the FEX-4. Two stations with the same node ID number
are not allowed.
For example set the armature converter node ID number to 1 and the FEX-4 node
ID number to 21.
The communication supervision is activated in the armature converter.
Also the transmission speed of all converters has to match:

Set the node ID numbers and transmission speed

In all bus systems unique node ID numbers are required and have to be set in the

allowed.
For example set the masters node ID number to 1 and add one for each follower.
Also the transmission speed of all converters has to match:

Activate the mailboxes

The master-follower communication utilizes 4 mailboxes for data transfer. Thus
data transfer to any device / node in the system is possible.
Positive mailbox node ID numbers only transmit data, negative only receive data.
To get communication mailbox node ID pairs (e.g. 5 and -5) are needed:
th
Firmware master Firmware first follower Firmware 10 follower
MailBox1 (94.12) = 5 MailBox1 (94.12) = -5 MailBox1 (94.12) = -5

Attention:
Positive mailbox node ID numbers must be unique. Negative mailbox node ID
numbers can be used by several mailboxes.
The master mailbox one for example is set to 5 and thus transmitting data. Mailbox
one of the followers is set to -5 and thus receiving data.

Activate the communication supervision

The communication supervision is activated by means of MailBoxCycle1 (94.13).
The function of MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) is depending on the setting of MailBox1
(94.12).
If MailBox1 (94.12) is positive:
− data will be transmitted.
− MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) sets the transmitting and receiving intervals.
− if MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) is set to 3 ms the transmit and receiving intervals
are synchronized with mains frequency, either 3.3 ms or 2.77 ms.
− values from 1 - 2 ms are too fast and will generate a fault.
− the communication is inactive, if MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) is set to 0 ms.
If MailBox1 (94.12) is negative:
− data will be received.
− MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) sets the communication timeout. This is the time
delay before a drive-to-drive or master-follower communication break is
declared. Depending on the setting of ComLossCtrl (30.28) either F544
P2PandMFCom [FaultWord3 (9.03) bit 11] or A112 P2PandMFCom
[AlarmWord1 (9.06) bit 11] is set.
− the communication fault and alarm are inactive, if MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) is
set to 0 ms.
Attention:
The communication timeout has to be set at least twice as long as the
corresponding mail box cycle time parameter:

Send and receive values

Each mailbox can transmit / receive up to 4 values depending on the sign of the
mailbox node ID number. The master-follower communication usually needs to
send 3 values from the master to the followers, thus the follower is completely
controlled by the master:

In case of an E-stop the master must be in control of all followers. Thus set:
− E Stop (10.09) = NotUsed and
− TorqSelMod (26.03) = Fix

Connection to overriding control:

In case followers are connected to an overriding control make sure, that the
overriding control is not writing on the same signals (via group 51 and / or group
90) as the master (via the master-follower link). There is always a problem when
two sources writing on one sink. Be very carefully with e.g. MainCtrlWord (7.01),

DDCS channels with SDCS-COM-8

General
The following table describes the usage of the DDCS channels of the SDCS-COM-
8 board.
Channel Standard usage SDCS-COM-81 SDCS-COM-82

Ch1 I/O extensions via AIMA board 5 Mb 5 Mb
Ch2 Master-follower link 10 Mb 10 Mb
Ch3 DriveWindow or NETA-01 10 Mb 10 Mb
connection
The communication protocol of Ch0 to Ch3 is DDCS (Distributed Drives
Communication System). The Ch0 of the SDCS-COM-8 supports either DDCS or
DriveBus, see Ch0 DriveBus (71.01). Both, the DDCS and DriveBus link between
the overriding control and the drive, using data sets for information exchange.
Each data set is a package of three words (signals or parameters). If a data set is
received by the drive the corresponding data set is automatically transmitted to the
overriding control as response:
Drive Received data Transmitted data
ÆÆÆ data set 10 data set 11 ÆÆÆ
ÆÆÆ data set 12 data set 13 ÆÆÆ
The data received from the overriding control affects only the RAM (not FPROM)
memory in the drive.

Integer scaling on the DDCS link

Communication between the drive and the overriding control uses 16 bit integer
values. The overriding control has to use the information given in integer scaling to
be able to change values of parameters properly.
Example1:
If TorqMaxSPC (20.07) is written to from the overriding control an integer value of
100 corresponds to 1 % torque.
Example2:
If SpeedRef (23.01) is written to from the overriding control 20.000 equals the
speed (in rpm) shown in SpeedScaleAct (2.29).
1.08 MotTorq (motor torque)
Motor torque in percent of MotNomTorque (4.23):

Ch0 communication to overriding control

ABB overriding control
The communication between the overriding control and the SDCS-COM-8 via Ch0
uses data sets. The data sets are connected to the firmware by read- and write
pointers - see sections Received data set table and Transmitted data set table.
497H 49 8H

Received and transmitted values are set according to groups 90 to 93. Received
data sets are typically connected to MainCtrlWord (7.01) and SpeedRef (23.01),
whereas transmitted data sets are connected to MainStatWord (8.01) and
MotSpeed (1.04).

Note:
The update time is the time within the drive is reading values from the data sets.
Since the drive is a slave, the actual communication cycle time depends on the
master’s cycle time.

Fieldbus communication (Nxxx)

The communication between the fieldbus adapter (Nxxx) and the SDCS-COM-8
uses data sets. The data set base address is set by means of CH0 DsetBaseAddr
(70.24) = 1. The communication for the fieldbus adapters is activated by means of
CommModule (98.02) = COM-8/Nxxx. The contents of the fieldbus data sets is set
by means of the same pointers as for the ABB overriding control data sets - see
sections Received data set table and Transmitted data set table. Received and
499H 5 00H

transmitted values are set according to groups 90 to 93. Also the update times are
the same.

Ch1 I/O devices

All optional I/O devices are connected via AIMA-01 board to Ch1. The SDCS-
COM-8 is the master in the communication link. Each device has an individual
address, set with switches on the I/O device. Before use, each I/O device must be
activated by means of a parameter in group 98.

Ch2 Master-follower link

General
The master-follower link is designed for applications in which the system is
operated by several drives and the shafts are coupled to each other via gearing,
chains, belts etc. The master controls all followers via a fiber optic serial
communication link. Pulse encoders are recommended for the master and all
followers.

The master is typically speed controlled and the other drives follow the masters
torque or speed reference. In general, torque control or window control of the
followers should be used when the motor shafts of the master and the followers
drives are fixed coupled to each other via gearing, chains, belts etc. and no speed
differences between the drives is possible.

Link configuration
Ch2 on the SDCS-COM-8 board is used for the master-follower link between the
drives. Ch2 is configurable by Ch2 MaFoMode (70.09) either to be master or
follower in the communication in broadcast mode. Typically the speed controlled
process master drive is configured also to be the communication master.

Master
The master mode is selected by Ch2 MaFoMode (70.09). The torque reference
source address is defined in the master by Ch2 MasSig3 (70.12) to be sent via
broadcast to the followers. Also two other signals can be sent through the link if
required. Their addresses are defined by Ch2 MasSig1 (70.10) and Ch2 MasSig2
(70.11). Typical / default addresses are:

Signal addresses in the master

Update Parameter name and index of the default Master drive selection
time values parameters
2 ms MainCtrlWord (7.01) or UsedMCW (7.04) Ch2 MasSig1 (70.10)
2 ms SpeedRefUsed (2.17) Ch2 MasSig2 (70.11)
2 ms TorqRef3 (2.10) Ch2 MasSig3 (70.12)

Above parameters are not valid in the follower. The master cyclically sends Ch2
MasSig1 … 3 in one DDCS message as broadcast every 2 ms.

Followers
The follower mode is selected by Ch2 MaFoMode (70.09). To control start and
stop from the master set CommandSel (10.01) = MainCtrlWord. The connections

according to the following table:

Above parameters are not valid in the master. The follower cyclically reads Ch2
FolSig1 … 3 every 2 ms.

Note:
In default setting master signal TorqRef3 (2.10) is send via master parameter Ch2
MasSig3 (70.12) to follower signal TorqRefA (25.01) via follower parameter Ch2
FolSig3 (70.20).

Toggle between speed- and torque control

In some application, both speed- and torque control of the followers are required,
e.g. if it is necessary to accelerate all drives along the same speed ramp up to a
certain speed before the torque control can be started. In those cases, a flying
switch over between speed- and torque controls is required. The switch over can
be done by e.g. the overriding control using TorqSel (26.01). See also TorqMux
(26.05) and TorqMuxMode (26.04).

Follower diagnostics
All the followers receive the torque reference via TorqRefA (25.01). All followers
are able to detect communication breaks, after the first valid message is received.
The action due to a communication break is defined by Ch2 TimeOut (70.14) and
Ch2 ComLossCtrl (70.15). Feedback for all alarms and faults from the followers
must be handled by the overriding control through the Ch0 on the SDCS-COM-8
board.

Master-follower link specification

Size of the link: One master and maximum ten followers are allowed. If more than
ten followers are required, a local ABB agent should be consulted.

Configuration: Link is configurable by the overriding control using Ch2

MaFoMode (70.09). This makes possible to change between master and follower
by the overriding control without changes in the hardware.

Transmission rate: 4 Mbit/s

Total performance of the link: 2 ms (between master and followers)

DriveWindow
DriveWindow can be connected to Ch3 in either ring (max. 5 drives) or star
connection using NDBU-xx branching units, see Ch3 HW Config (70.21). The node
numbers - Ch3 NodeAddr (70.32) - must be set for each drive individually before
starting the communication through the connection. This setting has to be made by
a point to point connection using either the DCS800 Control Panel, DriveWindow
or DriveWindow Light. The new node address becomes valid after the next SDCS-
COM-8 power-up. The SDCS-COM-8 Ch3 has been configured to be a slave in the
communication point of view. With DeviceName (99.09) and DriveWindow it is
possible to fill in a string (name) with a maximum of 12 characters for individual
drive identification. See also:

Modbus (RTU) communication with fieldbus adapter RMBA-01

General
This chapter gives additional information using the Modbus adapter RMBA-01
together with the DCS800.

RMBA-01 - DCS800
The Modbus communication with the drive requires the option RMBA-01.
The protocol Modbus RTU is supported.

Related documentation
User’s Manual Modbus Adapter Module RMBA-01 (3AFE 64498851 REV A).

The quoted page numbers correspond to the User’s Manual.

Mechanical and electrical installation

If not already done so insert RMBA-01 into a slot of the drive. Slot 1 has to be
used, if the Modbus should control the drive.

Drive configuration
The Modbus adapter is activated by means of CommModule (98.02) and
ModBusModule2 (98.08).
The serial communication parameters of the RMBA-01 adapter have to be set by
means of group 52.
Up to 12 data words in each direction are possible.

Parameter setting example …

The Modbus adapter can be either used to control the drive with the overriding
control system or only for monitoring purposes together with another fieldbus which
is responsible for the control. Therefore different parameter settings are necessary.

… when controlling a drive

In data set mode (cyclic communication) the drive will be controlled from the
overriding control using the Modbus.
Up to 12 data words in each direction are possible. The following table shows the
parameter settings.

Profibus communication with fieldbus adapter RPBA-01

General
This chapter gives additional information using the Profibus adapter RPBA-01
together with the DCS800.

RPBA-01 - DCS800
The Profibus communication with the drive requires the option RPBA-01.

Related documentation
User’s Manual PROFIBUS DP Adapter Module RPBA-01 (3AFE64504215 Rev. F).

The quoted page numbers correspond to the User’s Manual.

Overriding control configuration

Supported operation mode is VENDOR SPECIFIC for ABB Drives (see page 19
and 20).
The RPBA-01 uses data consistent communication, meaning that the whole data
frame is transmitted during a single program cycle. Some overriding controls
handle this internally, but others must be programmed to transmit data consistent
telegrams.

Mechanical and electrical installation

If not already done so insert RPBA-01 into slot 1 of the drive (see page 21).

Drive configuration
The Profibus adapter is activated by means of CommModule (98.02) (see page
22).
Please note that the DCS800 works only with the ABB Drives profile.

Parameter setting example 1 using PPO Type 1

− PZD3 OUT (51.05) = 2501 [TorqRefA (25.01)] and
− PZD3 IN (51.06) = 107 [MotTorqFilt (1.07)].
After changing parameters in group 51 please don’t forget to reset the RPBA-01
adapter by means of FBA PAR REFRESH (51.27) = RESET. Now the
corresponding parameters in group 90 and group 92 are disabled.

Adaptive Program (AP)

Chapter overview
This chapter describes the basics of the Adaptive Program and instructs how to
build a program.

What is the Adaptive Program

Conventionally, the user can control the operation of the drive by parameters. Each
parameter has a fixed set of choices or a setting range. The parameters make the
programming easy, but the choices are limited: you cannot customize the
operation any further. The Adaptive Program makes customizing possible without
the need of a special programming tool or language:
• The program is built of function blocks.
• The DCS800 Control Panel is the programming tool.
• The user can document the program by drawing it on block diagram template
sheets.
The maximum size of the Adaptive Program is 16 function blocks. The program
may consist of several separate functions.

Features
The Adaptive Program of DCS800 provides the following features:
• 16 function blocks
• more than 20 block types
• password protection
• 4 different cycle times selectable
• shift functions for function blocks
• debug functions
• output forcing
• breakpoint
• single step
• single cycle
• additional output write pointer parameter for each block (group 86)
• 10 additional user constants (group 85) used as data container

Adaptive Program

3ADW000193R0601 DCS800 Firmware Manual e f

 141

How to build the program

The programmer connects a function block to other blocks through a Block
Parameter Set. The sets are also used for reading values from the firmware and
transferring data to the firmware. Each Block Parameter Set consists of six
parameters in group 84 and a write pointer in group 86.

The figure below shows the use of Block Parameter Set 1 in the firmware
(parameters 84.04 to 84.09 and 86.01):
- Parameter 84.04 selects the function block type.
- Parameter 84.05 selects the source that input IN1 of the function block is
connected to. A negative value means that the signal will be inverted.
- Parameter 84.06 selects the source that input IN2 of the function block is
connected to. A negative value means that the signal will be inverted.
- Parameter 84.07 selects the source that input IN3 of the function block is
connected to. A negative value means that the signal will be inverted.
- Parameter 84.08 defines the attributes of inputs.
- Parameter 84.09 contains the value of the function block output, which can
be used further for other input selections. The user cannot edit this parameter
value.
- The output value is also available in write pointer 86.01. Parameter 86.01
contains the destination parameter, which should get the value.

How to connect the program to the firmware

The output of the Adaptive Program needs to be connected to the firmware. For
that purpose there are two possibilities:
• The output, e.g. 84.09, can be selected for further functions.
• The signal output is available with the write pointer, e.g. 86.01. This
parameter is to be set with the destination parameter, which needs the output
value of this function block.

5. Set 84.08=4000h (because Input 3 = constant -> Bit 14=1 --> 4000h)
6. 84.09=xxxx (contains the computed value; can be read from system’s parts e.g. Master Follower channel,

7. Set 86.01=xx.xx (write computed value to destination for further processing)

How to control the execution of the program

The Adaptive Program executes the function blocks in numerical order, all blocks
on the same time level. This cannot be changed by the user. The user can:
• select the operation mode of the program (stop, start, editing, single cycling,
single stepping)
• adjust the execution time level of the program
• delete or add blocks
• the execution order is given by the block number 1 ... 16

Insert function blocks

It is possible to insert up to 16 function blocks from the list to the desktop. With the
button Change Block xx the selected block will be changed. The button Insert
Before Block xx means that the new block will be inserted before the selected
block. Button Insert After Block xx means that the new block will be inserted after
the selected block.

Connection of function blocks

Function blocks can be connected to others or to firmware parameters. When
connecting packed Boolean values it is important to select the correct bit. To
connect click (Ctrl + left mouse button) on the red cross at the input and choose
one of the three possibilities:
− Select a Parameter from the list and set the bit

Adaptive Program

146

− Connect a Constant to the input (block constant)

− Select undefined if there is no connection required.

If an output of a function block should be connected with an input it is necessary to

select the parameter of the output at the input. Connections of outputs to firmware
parameters are not shown on the desktop. In this case it is necessary to connect
them to the output pointers on the right side of the desktop.

Function blocks
General rules
The use of block input 1 (BlockxIn1) is compulsory (it must not be left
unconnected). Use of input 2 (BlockxIn2) and input 3 (BlockxIn3) is voluntary for
the most blocks. As a rule of thumb, an unconnected input does not affect the
output of the block.
The Attribute Input (BlockxAttrib) is to set with the attributes, like declaration of
constant and bits, of all three inputs.
The constant attribute define a block constant which can only be changed or
modified in EDIT mode.

Block inputs
The blocks use two input formats:
• integer
• boolean
The used format varies depending on the block. For example, the ADD block uses
integer inputs and the OR block boolean inputs.

Note: The inputs of the block are read when the execution of the block starts, not
simultaneously for all blocks!

Block input attributes

Block inputs gets the parameter of signal source or user constants (e.g. 85.01).
Depending on the used block function and depending on the desired function the
attributes of all three inputs are to be set as integer, constant or as selection of a
bit of a 16-bit word source.
Therefore it is used a 16-bit word, which is defined as following:

Parameter value as an integer input

How the block handles the input

The block reads the selected value in as an integer.

Note: The parameter selected as an input should be an integer value. The internal
scaling for each parameter is given in the Firmware Manual.

How to select the input

• Scroll to the input selection parameter of the block and switch to edit mode
(Enter).
• Set the address, from which the input value is to be read, with group x 100 +
index (e.g. parameter 22.01 = 2201). A negative address (e.g. –2201) will act
an inversion of the connected value.
The figure below shows the DCS800 Control Panel display when the input
BlockxIn1 (with e.g. x = 1 for 1. block) selection parameter is in edit mode.

Example: Analog input AI1, which is supplied with a voltage source of 5.8 V. How
is the signal connected to the MAX block as function block 1 in the Adaptive
Program? What is the value at the block input?
AI1 is connected to the block as follows:
• Scroll to the input Block1In1 selection parameter 84.05 and shift to edit mode
(Enter).
• Set the address of 503, because group 5 and index 3 contains the input value
of AI1 (05.03 = 05x100+3 = 503).
The value at the input of the block is 5800, since the integer scaling of actual
signal 5.03 is: 0.001 V = 1 (with default setting of AI1, given in the Firmware
Manual).

• Connect the user constant to a block as usual by the input selection parameter.
The user constants can be changed while the Adaptive Program is running. They
may have values from –32767 to 32767.

Note: A constant (Block constant) like option 1 can only be changed in Edit mode.
If the constant may be modified during running, a user constant like option 2 is
needed

Parameter value as a boolean input

How the block handles the input

• The block reads the selected value as an integer.

• The block uses the bit defined by the bit field as the boolean input.

Bit value 1 is boolean value true and 0 is boolean value false

Example: The figure below shows the value of input BlockxIn1 selection parameter

Function blocks
General Each of the 16 function blocks has three input parameters (group 84), which are
connected to the firmware, outputs of other function blocks or constants.
One further parameter is used for the attributes of these inputs. This attribute
parameter is to be edited manually, if functions blocks are edited by using DCS800
Control Panel or by using the parameter browser of DriveWindow or DriveWindow
Light. The attribute parameter is set automatically when DWL AP is used.
The output OUT (group 84) can connected with the inputs of function blocks. To
write output values into firmware parameters connect the necessary output pointer
(group 86) to the desired parameter.

IN1 and IN2 are read as absolute numbers:
Out = | IN1 | * | IN 2 |
With IN3 = false (0) OUT is set to zero if a square rood should be taken from a
negative IN1*IN2:
Out = IN1* IN 2 when IN1* IN 2 > 0 and
Out = 0 when IN1* IN 2 < 0

Connections Input IN1: 16 bit integer value (15 bits + sign)

Input IN2: 16 bit integer value (15 bits + sign)
Input IN3: boolean value
Output OUT: 16 bit integer value

Signal and parameter list

Signals and parameters
This chapter contains all signals and parameters.

Signals
Signals are measured and calculated actual values of the drive. This includes the
control-, status-, limit-, fault- and alarm words. The drive’s signals can be found in
groups 1 to 9. None of the values inside these groups is stored in the flash and
thus volatile.

Note:
All signals in group 7 can be written to by means of DWL, DCS800 Control Panel,
Adaptive Program, application program or overriding control.

The following table gives an overview of all signal groups:

Sample of signals

All signals are read-only. However the overriding control can write to the control
words, but it only affects the RAM.

Min., max., def.:

Minimum, maximum and default values are not valid for groups 1 to 9.

Unit:
Shows the physical unit of a signal, if applicable. The unit is displayed in the
DCS800 Control Panel and PC tools.

E/C:
By means of USI Sel (16.09) it is possible to change between compact (C) and
extended (E) signal and parameter list. The compact list contains only signals and
parameters used for a typical commissioning.

Group.Index:
Signal and parameter numbers consists of group number and its index.

Integer Scaling:
Communication between the drive and the overriding control uses 16 bit integer
values. The overriding control has to use the information given in integer scaling to
read the value of the signal properly.
Example1:
If MotTorq (1.08) is read from the overriding control an integer value of 100
corresponds to 1 % torque.
Example2:
If SpeedRefUsed (2.17) is read from the overriding control 20.000 equals the
speed (in rpm) shown in SpeedScaleAct (2.29).

Type:
The data type is given with a short code:
I = 16-bit integer value (0, …, 65536)
SI = 16-bit signed integer value (-32768, …, 32767)
C = text string (ENUM)

Volatile:
Y = values are NOT stored in the flash, they will be lost when the drive is de-
energized
N = values are stored in the flash, they will remain when the drive is de-
energized

Attention:
Diagnosis (9.11) is set to zero by means of Reset.
Displays diagnostics messages:
0= no message

Firmware:
1= default setting of parameters wrong
2= parameter flash image too small for all parameters
3= reserved
4= illegal write attempt on a write-protected parameter
5= reserved
6= wrong type code
7= an un-initialized interrupted has occurred
8, 9 = reserved
10 = wrong parameter value

Autotuning:
11 = autotuning aborted by fault or removing the Run command [UsedMCW (7.04) bit 3]
12 = autotuning timeout, RUN command [UsedMCW (7.04) bit 3] is not set in time
13 = motor is still turning, no speed zero indication
14 = field current not zero
15 = armature current not zero
16 = armature voltage measurement circuit open (e.g. not connected) or interrupted, check also current
and torque limits
17 = armature circuit and/or armature voltage measurement circuit wrongly connected
18 = no load connected to armature circuit
19 = invalid nominal armature current setting;
armature current M1MotNomCur (99.03) is set to zero
20 = field current does not decrease when the excitation is switched off
21 = field current actual doesn't reach field current reference;
no detection of field resistance;
field circuit open (e.g. not connected) respectively interrupted
22 = no writing of control parameters of speed controller
23 = tacho adjustment faulty or not OK or the tacho voltage is too high during autotuning
24 = tuning of speed controller, speed feedback assistant or tacho fine tuning not possible due to speed
limitation - see e.g. M1SpeedMin (20.01) and M1SpeedMax (20.02)
25 = Tuning of speed controller, speed feedback assistant or tacho fine tuning not possible due to voltage
limitation. During the tuning of the speed controller, the speed feedback assistant or the tacho fine
tuning base speed [M1BaseSpeed (99.04)] might be reached. Thus full armature voltage
[M1NomVolt (99.02)] is necessary. In case the mains voltage is too low to provide for the needed
armature voltage the autotuning procedure is canceled.
Check and adapt if needed:
Mains voltage
M1NomVolt (99.02)
M1BaseSpeed (99.04)
26 = field weakening not allowed, see M1SpeedFbSel (50.03) and FldCtrlMode (44.01)
27 - 30 reserved
30 = DCS800 Control Panel up- or download not started
32 = DCS800 Control Panel data not up- or downloaded in time
33 = reserved
34 = DCS800 Control Panel up -or download checksum faulty
35 = DCS800 Control Panel up- or download software faulty
36 = DCS800 Control Panel up- or download verification failed
37 - 49 reserved

Hardware:
50 = parameter flash faulty (erase)
51 = parameter flash faulty (program)
52 = check connector X12 on SDCS-CON-4 and connector X12 and X22 on SDCS-PIN-4/51

Check if:
− M1NomCur (99.03) is set to zero,
− M1NomVolt (99.02) and M1NomCur (99.03) are fitting with the drive. In case they are

− To lock parameters set SysPassCode (16.03) to the desired value and change ParLock
(16.02) from Open to Locked.
− Unlocking of parameters is only possible if the proper pass code (the value which was
present during locking) is used. To open parameters set SysPassCode (16.03) to the
proper value and change ParLock (16.02) from Locked to Open.
After the parameters are locked or opened the value in SysPassCode (16.03) is automatically
changed to 0:
0 = Open parameter change possible, default
1 = Locked parameter change not possible

If parameters are written to cyclic, e.g. from an overriding control, they are only stored in the RAM
and not in the flash. By means of ParApplSave (16.06), all parameter values are saved from the
RAM into the flash.
ParApplSave (16.06) is also used to save/load a parameter set on/from the memory card and to
enable/disable application programs:
0 = Done parameters are saved or all other actions are finished, default
1 = Save saves the actual used parameters into the flash
3 = SaveToMemC saves a complete parameter set - actual used parameters, User1 and
User2 - from control board to memory card
4 = LoadFromMemC loads a complete parameter set - actual used parameters, User1 and
User2 - from memory card to control board
4 = EableAppl enables the application program
5 = DisableAppl disables the application program
6 = DeleteAppl To un-protect DeleteAppl set ServiceMode (99.06) = DeleteAppl.
Deletes the application and the complete parameter set - actual used
parameters, User1 and User2 - stored on the memory card. Also all
user defined parameters will be erased from the actual parameter set.
Parameter sets User1 or User2 stored in the drive itself will not be
influenced.
In case an application will be loaded anew all user defined parameters
are set to default.
This procedure can also be used to repair a memory card.
After an action (e.g. save, load, …) is finished ParApplSave (16.06) is changed back to Done. This
will take max. 1 second.

Note1:
Do not use the parameter save function unnecessarily
Note2:
Parameters changed by DCS800 Control Panel or commissioning tools are immediately saved into
the flash.

Conditions for motor deceleration when UsedMCW (7.04) bit 2 Off3N (respectively E-stop) is set
low:
0 = RampStop The input of the drives ramp is set to zero. Thus the drive stops according
to E StopRamp (22.04). When reaching M1ZeroSpeedLim (20.03) the firing
pulses are set to 150 degrees to decrease the armature current. When the
armature current is zero the firing pulses are blocked, the contactors are
opened, field exciter and fans are stopped.
In case TorqSelMod (26.03) = Auto and Off3N is set to low the torque
selector is bypassed and the drive is forced to speed control, default.
1 = TorqueLimit The output of the drives ramp is set to zero. Thus the drive stops at the
active torque limit. When reaching M1ZeroSpeedLim (20.03) the firing
pulses are set to 150 degrees to decrease the armature current. When the
armature current is zero the firing pulses are blocked, the contactors are
opened, field exciter and fans are stopped.
In case TorqSelMod (26.03) = Auto and Off3N is set to low the torque
selector is bypassed and the drive is forced to speed control.
2 = CoastStop The firing pulses are immediately set to 150 degrees to decrease the
armature current. When the armature current is zero the firing pulses are
blocked, the contactors are opened, field exciter and fans are stopped.

Idea of Window Control:

The idea of the Window Control is to block the speed controller as long as the speed error (Δn)
respectively speed actual remains within the window set by WinWidthPos (23.08) and
WinWidthNeg (23.09). This allows the external torque reference [TorqRef1 (2.08)] to affect the
process directly. If the speed error (Δn) respectively actual speed exceeds the programmed
window, the speed controller becomes active. This function could be called over/underspeed
protection in torque control mode:

Speed control

The Speed controller is based on a PID algorithm and is presented as follows:

⎡ ⎛ s TD ⎞⎤ 100% * Tn
Tref ( s ) = KpS * ⎢(nref ( s ) − nact ( s ) )* ⎜⎜1 +
1
+ ⎟⎟⎥ *
⎣ ⎝ s TiS s TF + 1 ⎠⎦ (2.29)
with:
Tref = torque reference
KpS = proportional gain [KpS (24.03)]
Nref = speed reference
Nact = speed actual
TiS = Integration time [TiS (24.09)]
TD = Derivation time [DerivTime (24.12)]
TF = Derivation filter time [DerivFiltTime (24.13)]
Tn = nominal motor torque

The amount of speed decrease caused by the load is determined by DroopRate (24.02). The result
is a load dependent speed decrease in percent of SpeedScaleAct (2.29).
Example:
With DroopRate (24.02) = 3 % and TorqIntegRef (2.05) = 100 % (nominal motor torque) the actual
speed decreases 3 % of SpeedScaleAct (2.29).

Proportional gain of the speed controller can be released by means of Par2Select (24.29).

Load adaptive proportional gain:

p-part
The adaptive proportional gain of the
speed controller is used to smooth out
disturbances which are caused by low
KpS (24.03)
loads and backlash. Moderate filtering of
KpSWeakpFiltTime (24.06)
the speed error (Δn) is typically not
enough to tune the drive.
The load adaptation is valid for positive
KpSMin (24.04) and negative torque.

Integral time of the speed controller can be released by means of Par2Select (24.29). TiS (24.09)
defines the time within the integral part of the controller achieves the same value as the
proportional part.
Example:
The controller generates 15 % of motor nominal torque with KpS (24.03) = 3, if the speed error (Δn)
is 5 % of SpeedScaleAct (2.29). On that condition and with TiS (24.09) = 300 ms follows:
− the controller generates 30 % of motor nominal torque, if the speed error (Δn) is constant,
after 300 ms are elapsed (15 % from proportional part and 15 % from integral part).
Setting TIS (24.09) to 0 ms disables the integral part of the speed controller and resets its
integrator.

decrease / increase the integral time [TiS (24.09)] at low speeds to improve the performance of the
speed control. The linear increase and decrease of these parameters starts at KpSTiSMaxSpeed

FaultStopMode (30.30) determines the reaction to a fault of trip level 4:
0 = RampStop The input of the drives ramp is set to zero. Thus the drive stops according
to E StopRamp (22.04). When reaching M1ZeroSpeedLim (20.03) the firing
pulses are set to 150 degrees to decrease the armature current. When the
armature current is zero the firing pulses are blocked, the contactors are
opened, field exciter and fans are stopped.
In case TorqSelMod (26.03) = Auto and a trip of level 4 is active the torque
selector is bypassed and the drive is forced to speed control, default.
1 = TorqueLimit The output of the drives ramp is set to zero. Thus the drive stops at the
active torque limit. When reaching M1ZeroSpeedLim (20.03) the firing
pulses are set to 150 degrees to decrease the armature current. When the
armature current is zero the firing pulses are blocked, the contactors are
opened, field exciter and fans are stopped.
In case TorqSelMod (26.03) = Auto and a trip of level 4 is active the torque
selector is bypassed and the drive is forced to speed control.
2 = CoastStop The firing pulses are immediately set to 150 degrees to decrease the
armature current. When the armature current is zero the firing pulses are
blocked, the contactors are opened, field exciter and fans are stopped.

Brake control

Brake Control is activated by means of M1BrakeCtrl (42.01) and controls a mechanical brake
automatically with the Run [MainCtrlWord (7.01) bit 3] command. The internal logic is designed to
meet the requirements of holding brakes, e.g. carriage drives or coilers, as well as the
requirements for hanging load, e.g. cranes.

All speed references have to be routed via the speed ramp.

With brake control On [M1BrakeCtrl (42.01)] and RdyRef [MainStatWord (8.01) bit 2] = 1 the
torque proving is done, if selected. Afterwards the torque reference is set to StrtTorqRef (42.08)
and the brake open (lift) command is given.

The brake open (lift) command BrakeCmd [AuxStatWord (8.02) bit 8] is send delayed by
M1BrakeLiftDly (42.11) to the brake. Then M1BrakeLiftDly (42.11) and M1BrakeRefDly (42.03) are
started at the same time. During M1BrakeRefDly (42.03) the speed ramp is clamped to zero and
the torque reference equals StrtTorqRef (42.08). After M1BrakeRefDly (42.03) is elapsed and the
brake acknowledge - if selected with M1BrakeAckSel (42.02) - is active, clamp of speed reference
is removed. This function compensates for the mechanical open (lift) delay of the brake.
With Run [UsedMCW (7.04) bit 3] = 0 and motor speed below M1ZeroSpeedLim (20.03),
M1ZeroSpeedDly (42.04) starts to compensate for the time the drive needs to decelerate from
M1ZeroSpeedLim (20.03) to actual speed = 0. Until M1ZeroSpeedDly (42.04) is elapsed the brake
is kept open (lifted).

After M1ZeroSpeedDly (42.04) is elapsed, the brake open (lift) command BrakeCmd
[AuxStatWord (8.02) bit 8] is removed and the brake close (apply) delay M1BrakeStopDelay
(42.13) is started. During M1BrakeStopDelay (42.13) the motor control remains active with speed
reference set to zero and the speed controller stays alive. This function compensates for the
mechanical close (apply) delay of the brake.
The brake can be forced by ForceBrake [AuxCtrlWord2 (7.03) bit 12]
ForceBrake = 1 If ForceBrake is set the brake remains closed (applied).
If the Run [MainCtrlWord (7.01) bit 3] command is given to a drive in
state RdyOn or RdyRef [MainStatWord (8.01) bit 0 and 1], the brake
logic will be started up to the point of the brake open (lift) command.
A drive in state Running [MainStatWord (8.01) bit 2] will be stopped by
ramp, the brake will be closed (applied), but the drive will remain in
state Running.
ForceBrake = 0 The brake is controlled by the internal brake logic in group 42 (Brake
control).

The reversal delay time starts when zero current has been detected, after a command to change
current direction has been given. After a command to change the current direction the opposite
current has to be reached before ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) has been elapsed otherwise the drive
trips with F557 ReversalTime [FaultWord4 (9.04) bit 8].

RevDly (43.14) must have the same setting for 12-pulse master and 12-pulse slave with one
exception only:
− If there is no current measurement in the 12-pulse serial slave, set RevDly (43.14) in the
12-pulse serial slave to minimum (0 ms). Thus the 12-pulse serial slave uses the reversal
command of the 12-pulse master for its own bridge changeover, see CtrlStatMas (6.09)
bit 12. No additional reversal delay is added, since the master delays bit 12 according to
its own RevDly (43.14).
Note1:
12P RevTimeOut (47.05) must be longer than ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) and
ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) must be longer than RevDly (43.14).

%
E
Optitorque calculates the field current reference depending on TorqRefUsed (2.13). Thus, the field
current is reduced to a smaller value, if TorqRefUsed (2.13) is accordingly low. This speeds up the
field reversal, assuming TorqRefUsed (2.13) is low during field reversal. Optitorque is activated by
means of FldCtrlMode (44.01) and like field reversal only available for motor 1 field exciter.
The relation between TorqRefUsed (2.13) and FldCurRefM1 (3.30) is linear and without offset. It is
defined by means of the FldRefGain (45.11). The gain is related to M1NomFldCur (99.11) as well
as to MotNomTorque (4.23).

Example:
With FldRefGain (45.11) = 20 %, 100 % field current is generated at TorqRefUsed (2.13) = 20 %.
Note1:
FldRefGain (45.11) is only effective for FldCtrlMode (44.01) = Fix/Opti, EMF/Opti, Fix/Rev/Opti or

Example:
The controller generates 15 % of motor nominal current [M2NomCur (49.02)] with M2KpArmCur
(49.14) = 3, if the current error is 5 % of M2NomCur (49.02). On that condition and with
M2TiArmCur (49.15) = 50 ms follows:
− the controller generates 30 % of motor nominal current, if the current error is constant,
after 50 ms are elapsed (15 % from proportional part and 15 % from integral part).
Setting M2TiArmCur (49.15) to 0 ms disables the integral part of the current controller and resets

− 20.000 speed units == M2SpeedScale (49.22), in case M2SpeedScale (49.22) ≥ 10
− 20.000 speed units == maximum absolute value of M2SpeedMin (49.19) and
M2SpeedMax (49.20), in case M2SpeedScale (49.22) < 10

rpm
Motor 1 speed scaling in rpm. M1SpeedScale (50.01) defines the speed - in rpm - that corresponds
to 20.000 speed units. The speed scaling is released when M1SpeedScale (50.01) ≥ 10:
− 20.000 speed units == M1SpeedScale (50.01), in case M1SpeedScale (50.01) ≥ 10
− 20.000 speed units == maximum absolute value of M1SpeedMin (20.01) and
M1SpeedMax (20.02), in case M1SpeedScale (50.01) < 10
or mathematically
− If (50.01) ≥ 10 then 20.000 == (50.01) in rpm
− If (50.01) < 10 then 20.000 == Max [|(20.01)|, |(20.02)|] in rpm
The actual used speed scaling is visible in SpeedScale Act (2.29).

Note1:
M1SpeedScale (50.01) has to be set in case the speed is read or written by means of an overriding
control (e.g. fieldbus).
Note2:
M1SpeedScale (50.01) is must be set in the range of:
0.625 to 5 times of M1BaseSpeed (99.04), because the maximum amount of speed units
is 32.000.
If the scaling is out of range A124 SpeedScale [AlarmWord2 (9.07) bit 7] is generated.
Commissioning hint:
− set M1SpeedScale (50.01) to maximum speed
− set M1BaseSpeed (99.04) to base speed
− set M1SpeedMax (20.02) / M1SpeedMin (20.01) to ±maximum speed

E
When an encoder is used as speed feedback device the actual speed is measured by counting the
amount of pulses per cycle time. The cycle time for the measurement is synchronized with the
mains (every 3.3 ms or 2.77 ms).
In case very small speeds have to be measured - that means there is less than one pulse per cycle
time - it is possible to increase the measuring time by means of MaxEncoderTime (50.05). The
speed is set to zero after MaxEncoderTime (50.05) is elapsed without a measured pulse.

Note1:
MaxEncoderTime (50.05) is valid for motor 1, motor 2, encoder 1 and encoder 2.
Note2:

This parameter group defines the communication parameters for the DCSLink board SDCS-DSL-4.
For communication between the armature converter and the field exciters respectively 12-pulse
communication only the basic communication parameters [(94.01) to (94.09)] have to be set.

For master-follower and drive-to-drive communication the basic communication parameters have
to be set. The data transfer is done by means of the 4 available mailboxes [(94.12) to (94.35)].
Parameter settings, default values:
single drive with excitation DCSLinkNodeID (94.01) = 1 see example 1
M1FexNode (94.08) = 21

The drive-to-drive and master-follower communication utilizes 4 mailboxes to transfer data. Thus
data transfer to any station in the system is possible. Each mailbox can transmit / receive up to 4
values. Positive mailbox node ID numbers only transmit data, negative only receive data. To get
communication mailbox node ID pairs are needed.

− values from 1 - 2 ms are too fast and will generate a fault
− the communication is inactive, if MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) is set to 0 ms
If MailBox1 (94.12) is negative:
− data will be received
− MailBoxCycle1 (94.13) sets the communication timeout. This is the time delay before a
drive-to-drive or master-follower communication break is declared. Depending on the
setting of ComLossCtrl (30.28) either F544 P2PandMFCom [FaultWord3 (9.03) bit 11] or

The measured phase angle of the firing unit's PLL can be corrected in order to compensate the
error caused by the commutation related voltage drops. The compensation depends on the uk

CompUkPLL (97.12) defines the mains short circuit voltage - in percent of NomMainsVolt (99.10) -

Sc
CompUkPLL = uk * *100%

with: uk = related mains short circuit voltage,
Sc = apparent power of converter and
St = apparent power of transformer
Commissioning hint:
CompUkPLL (97.12) is used to compensate for the phase shift of the mains due to commutation
notches, in case the mains are measured on the secondary side of the dedicated transformer.

E
After a command to change current direction the opposite current has to be reached before
ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) has been elapsed otherwise the drive trips with F557 ReversalTime
[FaultWord4 (9.04) bit 8].

The reversal delay time starts when zero current has been detected, after a command to change
current direction has been given.
The time needed to change the current direction can be longer when changing from motoring
mode to regenerative mode at high motor voltages, because the motor voltage must be reduced
before switching to regenerative mode - see also RevVoltMargin (44.21).

ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) must have the same setting for 12-pulse master and 12-pulse slave with
one exception only:
If there is no current measurement in the 12-pulse serial slave, set ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) in
the 12-pulse serial slave to maximum (12000 ms).
Note1:
12P RevTimeOut (47.05) must be longer than ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) and

Start-up assistants mode:

Use the start-up assistants mode for basic commissioning of the drive.
When the drive is powered up the first time, the start-up assistants guides you
through the setup of the basic parameters.
There are seven start-up assistants available. They can be activated one after the
other, as the ASSISTANTS menu suggests, or independently. The use of the
assistants is not required. It is also possible to use the parameter mode instead.
The assistant list in the following table is typical:

1. Name plate data − Enter the motor data, the mains (supply) data, the most important
protections and follow the instructions of the assistant.
− After filling out the parameters of this assistant it is - in most cases -
possible to turn the motor for the first time.

2. Macro assistant − Selects an application macro.

3. Autotuning field current − Enter the field circuit data and follow the instructions of the assistant.
controller − During the autotuning the main respectively field contactor will be
closed, the field circuit is measured by means of increasing the field
current to nominal field current and the field current control parameters
are set. The armature current is not released while the autotuning is
active and thus the motor should not turn.
− When the autotuning is finished successfully the parameters changed by
the assistant are shown for confirmation. If the assistant fails it is
possible to enter the fault mode for more help.

4. Autotuning armature − Enter the motor nominal current, the basic current limitations and follow
current controller the instructions of the assistant.
− During the autotuning the main contactor will be closed, the armature
circuit is measured by means of armature current bursts and the
armature current control parameters are set. The field current is not
released while the autotuning is active and thus the motor should not
turn, but due to remanence in the field circuit about 40% of all motors
will turn (create torque). These motors have to be locked.
− When the autotuning is finished successfully the parameters changed by
the assistant are shown for confirmation. If the assistant fails it is
possible to enter the fault mode for more help.

5. Speed feedback − Enter the EMF speed feedback parameters, - if applicable - the
assistant parameters for the pulse encoder respectively the analog tacho and
follow the instructions of the assistant.
− The speed feedback assistant detects the kind of speed feedback the
drive is using and provides help to set up pulse encoders or analog
tachometers.
− During the autotuning the main contactor and the field contactor - if
existing - will be closed and the motor will run up to base speed
[M1BaseSpeed (99.04)]. During the whole procedure the drive will be in
EMF speed control despite the setting of M1SpeedFbSel (50.03).
− When the assistant is finished successfully the speed feedback is set. If
the assistant fails it is possible to enter the fault mode for more help.

6. Autotuning speed − Enter the motor base speed, the basic speed limitations, the speed filter
controller time and follow the instructions of the assistant.
− During the autotuning the main contactor and the field contactor - if
existing - will be closed, the ramp is bypassed and torque respectively
current limits are valid. The speed controller is tuned by means of speed
bursts up to base speed [M1BaseSpeed (99.04)] and the speed
controller parameters are set.
Attention:
During the autotuning the torque limits will be reached.
− When the autotuning is finished successfully the parameters changed by
the assistant are shown for confirmation. If the assistant fails it is
possible to enter the fault mode for more help.

Fault tracing
Chapter overview
This chapter describes the protections and fault tracing of the drive.

General
Fault modes
Depending on the trip level of the fault the drive reacts differently. The drive’s
reaction to a fault with trip level 1 and 2 is fixed. See also paragraph Fault signals
of this manual. The reaction to a fault of level 3 and 4 can be chosen by means of
SpeedFbFltMode (30.36) respectively FaultStopMode (30.30).

Converter protection
Auxiliary undervoltage
If the auxiliary supply voltage fails while the drive is in RdyRun state (MSW bit 1),
fault F501 AuxUnderVolt is generated.

Auxiliary supply voltage Trip level

230 VAC < 185 VAC
115 VAC < 96 VAC

Armature overcurrent
The nominal value of the armature current is set with M1NomCur (99.02).

The overcurrent level is set by means of ArmOvrCurLev (30.09).

Additionally the actual current is monitored against the overcurrent level of the
converter module. The converter’s actual overcurrent level can be read from
ConvOvrCur (4.16).
Exceeding one of the two levels causes F502 ArmOverCur.

Converter overtemperature / converter fan current

Converter overtemperature:
The maximum temperature of the bridge can be read from MaxBridgeTemp (4.17)
and is automatically set by TypeCode (97.01) or manually set by S MaxBrdgTemp
(97.04).
Note:
When setting the air entry temperature for D6 and D7 modules manually use
MaxBrdgTemp (97.04) = 50 °C as absolute maximum.

Exceeding this level causes F504 ConvOverTemp. The threshold for A104
ConvOverTemp, is 5 °C below the tripping level. The measured temperature can
be read from BridgeTemp (1.24).

If the measured temperature drops below minus 10 °C, F504 ConvOverTemp is

generated.

Auto-reclosing (mains undervoltage)

Auto-reclosing allows to continue drive operation immediately after a short mains
undervoltage without any additional functions in the overriding control system.

In order to keep the overriding control system and the drive control electronics
running through short mains undervoltage, an UPS is needed for the 115/230 VAC
auxiliary voltages. Without the UPS all DI like e.g. E-stop, start inhibition,
acknowledge signals etc. would have false states and trip the drive although the
system itself could stay alive. Also the control circuits of the main contactor must
be supplied during the mains undervoltage.

Auto-reclosing defines whether the drive trips immediately with F512

MainsLowVolt or if the drive will continue running after the mains voltage returns.

Short mains undervoltage

The supervision of mains undervoltage has two levels:
1. UNetMin1 (30.22) alarm, protection and trip level
2. UNetMin2 (30.23) trip level
If the mains voltage falls below UNetMin1 (30.22) but stays above UNetMin2
(30.23), the following actions take place:
1. the firing angle is set to ArmAlphaMax (20.14),
2. single firing pulses are applied in order to extinguish the current as fast as
possible,
3. the controllers are frozen,
4. the speed ramp output is updated from the measured speed and
5. A111 MainsLowVolt is set as long as the mains voltage recovers before
PowrDownTime (30.24) is elapsed, otherwise F512 MainsLowVolt is
generated.
If the mains voltage returns before PowrDownTime (30.24) is elapsed and the
overriding control keeps the commands On (MCW bit 0) and Run (MCW bit 3) = 1,
the drive will start again after 2 seconds. Otherwise the drive trips with F512
MainsLowVolt.
When the mains voltage drops below UNetMin2 (30.23), the action is selected by
means of PwrLossTrip (30.21):
1. the drive is immediately tripped with F512 MainsLowVolt or
2. the drive starts up automatically, see description for UNetMin1 (30.22).
Below UNetMin2 (30.23) the field acknowledge signals are ignored and
blocked

Note1:
UNetMin2 (30.23) isn't monitored, unless the mains voltage drops below UNetMin1
(30.22). Thus, for proper operation, UNetMin1 (30.22) must be larger than
UNetMin2 (30.23).

Note2:
If no UPS is available, set PwrLossTrip (30.21) to Immediately. Thus the drive will
trip with F512 MainsLowVolt avoiding secondary phenomena due to missing
power for AI’s and DI’s.

Mains synchronism
As soon as the main contactor is closed and the firing unit is synchronized with the

synchronization fails, F514 MainsNotSync will be generated.

The permitted deviation of the cycle time between 2 measurements is set by

means of DevLimPLL (97.13).

Fan, field and mains contactor acknowledge
When the drive is switched On (MCW bit 0), the firmware closes the fan contactor
and waits for acknowledge. After it is received, the field contactor is closed
respectively the field converter is started and the firmware waits for the field
acknowledge. Finally the main contactor is closed and its acknowledge is waited
for.
If the acknowledges are not received during 10 seconds after the On command
(MCW bit 0) is given, the corresponding fault is generated. These are:
1. F521 FieldAck, see Mot1FexStatus (6.12)
2. F523 ExtFanAck, see MotFanAck (10.06)
3. F524 MainContAck, see MainContAck (10.21)

External fault
The user has the possibility to connect external faults to the drive. The source can
be connected to DI’s, MainCtrlWord (7.01) or AuxCtrlWord (7.02) and is selectable
by ExtFaultSel (30.31). External faults generate F526 ExternalDI.

ExtFaultOnSel (30.33) selects the reaction:

1. external fault is always valid independent from drive state
2. external fault is only valid when drive state is RdyRun (MSW bit 1) for at
least 6 s

Note:
In case inverted fault inputs are needed, it is possible to invert the DI’s.

Bridge reversal
With a 6-pulse converter, the bridge reversal is initiated by changing the polarity of
the current reference (command to change direction). Upon zero current detection,
the bridge reversal is started. Depending on the moment involved, the new bridge
may be “fired” either in the same or in the next current cycle.

The switchover can be delayed by RevDly (43.14). The delay starts after zero
current has been detected. Thus RevDly (43.14) is the length of the forced current
gap during a bridge changeover. After the reversal delay is elapsed the system
changes to the selected bridge without any further consideration.

This feature may prove useful when operating with large inductances. Also the
time needed to change the current direction can be longer when changing from
motoring mode to regenerative mode at high motor voltages, because the motor
voltage must be reduced before switching to regenerative mode - see also
RevVoltMargin (44.21).

After a command to change current direction the opposite current has to be

reached before ZeroCurTimeOut (97.19) has been elapsed otherwise the drive
trips with F557 ReversalTime [FaultWord4 (9.04) bit 8].

Armature overvoltage
The nominal value of the armature voltage is set with M1NomVolt (99.02).

The overvoltage level is set by means of ArmOvrVoltLev (30.08). Exceeding this

level causes F503 ArmOverVolt.

Residual current detection

The residual current detection (earth fault) is based on:
− a sum current transformer at the AC-side of the converter or
− an external device (e.g. Bender relays).
If a current transformer is used its secondary winding is connected to AI4 (X3:11
and X3:12) on the SDCS-IOB-3 board. The sum current of all three phases has to
be zero, otherwise a residual current is detected and F505 ResCurDetect is set.

ResCurDetectSel (30.05) activates the residual current detection and selects the
choice of connected hardware (transformer or external device).

The residual current detection tripping level is set with ResCurDetectLim (30.06), if
a sum current transformer is used. In case an external device is used
ResCurDetectLim (30.06) is deactivated.

ResCurDetectDel (30.07) delays F505 ResCurDetect.

Measured motor temperature

General
The temperatures of motor 1 and motor 2 (parameter for motor 2 see group 49)
can be measured at the same time. Alarm and tripping levels are selected by
means of M1AlarmLimTemp (31.06) and M1FaultLimTemp (31.07). If the levels
are exceeded A106 M1OverTemp respectively F506 M1OverTemp is set. The
motor fan will continue to work until the motor is cooled down to alarm limit.

The measurement is configured by means of M1TempSel (31.05) and the

measured temperature is shown in Mot1TempMeas (1.22). The unit of the
measurement depends on the selected measurement mode. For PT100 the unit is
degree Celsius and for PTC the unit is Ω.

The temperature measurements uses either AI2 and AI3 of the SDCS-IOB-3 or AI7
and AI8 of the RAIO for motor temperature measurement. Additionally the SDCS-
IOB-3 features a selectable constant current source for PT100 (5 mA) or PTC (1.5
mA).

Klixon
The temperature of motor 1 and motor 2 can be supervised by means of klixons.
The klixon is a thermal switch, opening its contact at a defined temperature. This
can be used for supervision of the temperature by means of connecting the switch
to a digital input of the drive. The digital input for the klixon(s) is selected with
M1KlixonSel (31.08). The drive trips with F506 M1OverTemp when the klixon
opens. The motor fan will continue to work until the klixon is closed again.

Note:
It is possible to connect several klixons in series.

Motor thermal model

General
The drive includes two thermal models one for motor 1 and one for motor 2. The
models can be used at the same time. Two models are needed in case one
converter is shared by two motors (e.g. shared motion). During normal operation
only one thermal model is needed.

It is recommended to use the thermal model of the motor if a direct motor

temperature measurement isn't available and the current limits of the drive are set
higher than the motor nominal current.

The thermal model is based on the actual motor current related to motor nominal
current and rated ambient temperature. Thus the thermal model does not directly
calculate the temperature of the motor, but it calculates the temperature rise of
the motor. This is based on the fact that the motor will reach its end temperature
after the specified time when starting to run the cold motor (40°C) with nominal

Fault tracing

414

current. This time is about four times the motor thermal time constant.

The temperature rise of the motor behaves like the time constant which is
proportional with the motor current to the power of two:
I2 ⎛ − ⎞
t
Φ = 2act * ⎜⎜1 − e ⎟⎟
τ
(1)
I Motn ⎝ ⎠

When the motor is cooling down, following temperature model is valid:

2 t

with:
Φtrip = temperature rise == [M1FaultLimLoad (31.04)]
2

Φ = temperature rise == Mot1TempCalc (1.20)

Iact = actual motor current (overload e.g. 170%)
IMotN = nominal motor current (100%)
t = length of overload (e.g. 60 s)
τ = temperature time constant (in seconds) == M1ModelTime (31.01)

As from the formulas (1) and (2) can be seen, the temperature model uses the
same time constant when the motor is heating or cooling down.

Alarm and tripping levels

Alarm and tripping levels are selected by means of M1AlarmLimLoad (31.03) and
M1FaultLimLoad (31.04). If the levels are exceeded A107 M1OverLoad
respectively F507 M1OverLoad is set. The motor fan will continue to work until the
motor is cooled down under the alarm limit.

The default values are selected in order to achieve quite high overload ability.
Recommended value for alarming is 102 % and for tripping 106 % of nominal
motor current. Thus the temperature rise is:
− Φalarm == [M1AlarmLimLoad (31.03)] = (102%) = 1.02 = 1.04 and
2 2 2

− Φtrip == [M1FaultLimLoad (31.04)] = (106%) = 1.06 = 1.12.

2 2 2

The temperature rise output of the model is shown in Mot1TempCalc (1.20).

Thermal model selection

The activation of the thermal models is made by setting M1ModelTime (31.01)
greater than zero.

Thermal time constant

The time constant for the thermal model is set by means of M1ModelTime (31.01).
If the thermal time constant of a motor is given by the manufacturer just write it into
M1ModelTime (31.01).
In many cases the motor manufacturer provides a curve that defines how long the
motor can be overloaded by a certain overload factor. In this case the proper
thermal time constant must be calculated.

Example:
The drive is desired to trip if the motor current exceeds 170 % of motor nominal

Field overcurrent
The nominal value of the field current is set with M1NomFldCur (99.11).

The overcurrent level is set by means of M1FldOvrCurLev (30.13). Exceeding this

level causes F515 M1FexOverCur.

Armature current ripple

The current control is equipped with a current ripple monitor.
This function detects:
1. a broken fuse or thyristor
2. too high gain (e.g. wrong tuning) of the current controller
3. a broken current transformer (T51, T52)

The current ripple monitor level is set by means of CurRippleLim (30.19).

Exceeding this level causes either F517 ArmCurRipple or A117 ArmCurRipple
depending on CurRippleSel (30.18).

Current ripple monitor method is based on comparing positive and negative

currents of each phase. The calculation is done per thyristor pair:

Commissioning hint:
It is not possible to pre-calculate clear levels.
The current control reacts to unstable current feedback.
The load is continuously driving the current if a thyristor is not fired.

Speed feedback monitor

The speed feedback monitor supervises an attached analog tacho or encoder for
proper function by means of measured speed and measured EMF. Above a certain
EMF the measured speed feedback must be above a certain threshold. The sign of
the speed measurement must be correct as well:

Speed measurement supervision

The drive reacts according to SpeedFbFltSel (30.17) when:

1. the measured EMF is greater than EMF FbMonLev (30.15) and
2. the measured speed feedback SpeedActEnc (1.03), SpeedActTach (1.05)
or SpeedActEnc2 (1.42) is lower than SpeedFbMonLev (30.14).
Example:
− SpeedFbMonLev (30.14) = 15 rpm
− EMF FbMonLev (30.15) = 50 V
The drive trips when the EMF is greater than 50 V while the speed feedback is ≤
15 rpm.

SpeedFbFltSel (30.17) selects the reaction to a speed feedback problem:

1. the drive is immediately tripped with F522 SpeedFb
2. the speed feedback is switched to EMF and the drive is stopped according
to E StopRamp (22.11), then F522 SpeedFb is set
3. the speed feedback is switched to EMF and A125 SpeedFb is set
4. This selection is only valid if 2 pulse encoders are connected. Depending
on the setting of M1SpeeFbSel (50.03) the speed feedback is switched
from pulse encoder 1 to pulse encoder 2 or vice versa in case of a problem
and A125 SpeedFb [AlarmWord2 (9.07) bit 8] is set.
In case the field is weakened the drive is immediately tripped with F522 SpeedFb,
except two pulse encoders are in use.

Stall protection
The stall protection trips the converter with F531 MotorStalled when the motor is
in apparent danger of overheating. The rotor is either mechanically stalled or the
load is continuously too high. It is possible to adjust the supervision (time, speed
and torque).

The stall protection trips the drive if:

1. the actual speed is below StallSpeed (30.02) and
2. the actual torque exceeds StallTorq (30.03)
3. for a time longer than programmed in StallTime (30.01).

Overspeed protection
The motor is protected against overspeed e.g. in a case when the drive is in torque
control mode and the load drops unexpected.
The overspeed level is set by means of M1OvrSpeed (30.16). Exceeding this level
causes F532 MotOverSpeed.

Current rise
The protection against fast current rise during generating is configured by means
of ArmCurRiseMax (30.10).
Exceeding this level causes F539 FastCurRise. If present the DC-breaker is
tripped and the main contactor is opened.

Field undercurrent
The nominal value of the field current is set with M1NomFldCur (99.11).
The minimum field current level is set by means of M1FldMinTrip (30.12).
Undershooting this level causes F541 M1FexLowCur.
FldMinTripDly (45.18) delays F541 M1FexLowCur.

Tacho polarity respectively pulse encoder polarity

The polarity of the analog tacho respectively pulse encoder [depending on
M1SpeedFbSell (50.03)] is checked against the EMF. If the polarity is wrong F553
TachPolarity is generated.
Tacho range
If an overflow of the AITacho input is imminent F554 TachoRange is generated.
Check for the right connections (X3:1 to X3:4) on the SDCS-CON-4.

Fault signals (F)

To avoid dangerous situations, damage of the motor, the drive or any other
material some physical values must not exceed certain limits. Therefore limit
values can be specified for these values by parameter setting which cause an
alarm or a fault when the value exceeds the limits (e.g. max. armature voltage,
max. converter temperature). Faults can also be caused by situations which inhibit
the drive from normal operation (e.g. blown fuse).

A fault is a condition which requires an immediate stop of the drive in order to

avoid danger or damage. The drive is stopped automatically and cannot be
restarted before removing its cause.

All fault signals, with the exception of:

− F501 AuxUnderVolt,
− F525 TypeCode,
− F547 HwFailure and
− F548 FwFailure
are resetable in case the fault is eliminated.
To reset a fault following steps are required:
− remove the Run and On commands [UsedMCW (7.04) bit 3 and 0]
− eliminate the faults
− acknowledge the fault with Reset [UsedMCW (7.04) bit 7] via digital input,
overriding control system or in Local mode with DCS800 Control Panel,
DriveWindow or DriveWindow Light
− depending on the systems condition, generate Run and On commands
[UsedMCW (7.04) bit 3 and 0] again

The fault signals will switch the drive off completely or partly depending on its trip
level.
Trip level 1:
− main contactor is switched off immediately
− field contactor is switched off immediately
− fan contactor is switched off immediately
Trip level 2:
− main contactor is switched off immediately
− field contactor is switched off immediately
− fan contactor stays on as long as the fault is pending or as long as FanDly
(21.14) is running
Trip level 3:
The drive is stopping via SpeedFbFltMode (30.36) , thus the
− main contactor is switched off immediately
− field contactor is switched off immediately in case of SpeedFbFltMode
(30.36) = CoastStop, but it stays on in case of field heating or
SpeedFbFltMode (30.36) = DynBraking
− fan contactor stays on
At standstill the
− main contactor cannot be switched on again
− field contactor stays on in case of field heating
− fan contactor stays on as long as FanDly (21.14) is running

3ADW000193R0601 DCS800 Firmware Manual e f

422

Trip level 4:
As long as the drive is stopping via FaultStopMode (30.30) , the
− main contactor is switched off immediately in case of FaultStopMode
(30.30) = CoastStop or DynBraking, but it stays on in case of
FaultStopMode (30.30) = RampStop or TorqueLimit
− field contactor is switched off immediately in case of FaultStopMode (30.30)
= CoastStop, but it stays on in case of field heating or FaultStopMode
(30.30) = RampStop, TorqueLimit or DynBraking
− fan contactor is switched off immediately in case of FaultStopMode (30.30)
= CoastStop, but stays on in case of FaultStopMode (30.30) = RampStop,
TorqueLimit or DynBraking
At standstill the
− main contactor is switched off immediately
− field contactor stays on in case of field heating
− fan contactor stays on as long as FanDly (21.14) is running
Trip level 5
As long as the drive is stopping via any communication loss control [LocalLossCtrl
(30.27), ComLossCtrl (30.28), Ch0ComLossCtrl (70.05) or Ch2ComLossCtrl
(70.15)], the
− main contactor is switched off immediately or stays on depending on the
selected communication loss control
− field contactor is switched off immediately or stays on depending on the
selected communication loss control, but it stays on in case of field heating
− fan contactor is switched off immediately or stays on depending on the
selected communication loss control
At standstill
− main contactor is switched off immediately
− field contactor stays on in case of field heating
− fan contactor stays on as long as FanDly (21.14) is running

In case a fault occurs, it stays active until the cause is eliminated and a Reset
[UsedMCW (7.04) bit 7] is given.

Alarm signals (A)

An alarm is a message, that a condition occurred, which may lead to a dangerous
situation. It is displayed and written into the fault logger. However, the cause for
the alarm can inhibit the drive from continuing with normal operation. If the cause
of the alarm disappears the alarm will be automatically reset. The fault logger
shows the appearing alarm with a plus sign and the disappearing alarm with a
minus sign. An appearing user defined alarm has a three as first digit. A
disappearing user defined alarm has a four as first digit.

The alarm handling must provides 4 alarm levels.

Alarm level 1:
− the main contactor cannot be switched on again, after the drive stopped (no
re-start possible)
Alarm level 2:
− fan contactor stays on as long as the alarm is pending
− if the alarm disappears FanDly (21.14) will start
Alarm level 3:
− AutoReclosing (auto re-start) is [AuxStatWord (8.02) bit 15] active
− RdyRun [MainStatWord (8.01) bit 1] is disabled, but the drive is
automatically restarted when the alarm condition vanishes
− α is set to 150°
− single firing pulses
Alarm level 4:
− drive keeps on running and the alarm is indicated

In case an alarm occurs, it stays active until the cause is eliminated. Then the
alarm will automatically disappear, thus a Reset [UsedMCW (7.04) bit 7] is not
needed and will have no effect.
