Program features
Chapter overview
The chapter describes program features. For each feature, there is a list of related
user settings, actual signals, and fault and warning messages.
Typical crane configuration
The Crane control program can be used, for example, in the following kinds of
applications:
• Hoist drives: Closed-loop motor control with an incremental encoder for:
- additional safety and performance
- anti-sway control (hook position needed)
- Master/Follower synchro control
• Trolley drives: Open-loop motor control without an incremental encoder
• Long travel drives: Open-loop motor control without an incremental encoder.
Local control vs. external control
The drive can receive Start, Stop and Direction commands and reference values
from the control panel or through digital and analogue inputs. An optional fieldbus
adapter module enables control over an open fieldbus link. A PC equipped with
DriveWindow can also control the drive. DriveWindow is mainly used to select
parameters and monitor signals. See page
for a screenshot of DriveWindow
connected to an ACS800 drive with the Crane control program.
Note
: The crane drive is not ready for start if the drive status displayed in the upper
right corner of the control panel is not “0”.
