Safety Instructions
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 or damage 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 speed provided by connecting the motor directly
to the power line.
• Do not activate automatic fault reset functions of the Standard Application
Program if dangerous situations can occur. When activated, these functions
will reset the drive and resume operation after a fault.
• Do not control the motor with the disconnecting device (disconnecting means);
instead, use the control panel keys
and , or commands via the I/O
board of the drive. The maximum allowed number of charging cycles of the DC
capacitors (i.e. power-ups by applying power) is five in ten minutes.
• Do not use the optional Prevention of Unexpected Start function for stopping
the drive when the drive is running. Give a Stop command instead.
Note:
• If an external source for start command is selected and it is ON, the drive (with
Standard Application Program) will start immediately after fault reset unless the
drive is configured for 3-wire (a pulse) start/stop.
• 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 .
