Setting the drive parameters

Check the settings of the drive parameters against the recommendations below. This is 
not the complete list of settings, just settings for the common DC system to work 
effectively. The list is valid for the ACS880 primary control program.

Recommendation: Set parameter 

99.04 Motor ctrl mode

 to 

DTC

 in all drives.

Set parameter 

30.26 Power motoring limit

 to the maximum motoring power of the drive 

load cycle.

Set parameter 

30.27 Power generating limit

 to the maximum generating power of the 

drive load cycle. 

When you use a brake chopper:

Set parameter 

30.30 Overvoltage control 

to 

Disable

 in all drives.

Set parameter 

43.06 Brake chopper

 to 

Enabled with thermal model

 or 

Enabled 

without thermal model

 in those drives that you use the chopper.

Set parameter 

31.23 

to 

No action

 in all drives to prevent unnecessary fault trips.

For more information, see the drive firmware manual.
