Start-up
What this chapter contains
This chapter describes the basic start-up procedure of the drive and instructs in how
to control the drive through the I/O interface.
How to start up the drive
The drive can be operated:
• locally from PC tool or control panel
• externally via I/O connections or fieldbus interface.
The start-up procedure presented uses the DriveStudio PC tool program. Drive
references and signals can be monitored with DriveStudio (Data Logger or Monitor
Window). For instructions on how to use DriveStudio, see
DriveStudio User Manual
[3AFE68749026 (English)].
The start-up procedure includes actions which need to be performed only when the
drive is powered up for the first time (eg, entering the motor data). After the first start-
up, the drive can be powered up without using these start-up functions. The start-up
procedure can be repeated later if start-up data needs to be changed.
In addition to the PC tool commissioning and drive power-up, the start-up procedure
includes the following steps:
• entering the motor data and performing the motor identification run
• setting up the encoder/resolver communication
• checking the emergency stop and Safe Torque Off circuits
• setting up the voltage control
• setting the drive limits
• setting up the motor overtemperature protection
• tuning the speed controller
• setting up the fieldbus control.
If an alarm or a fault is generated during the start-up, see chapter Fault tracing for
the possible causes and remedies. If problems continue, disconnect the main power
and wait 5 minutes for the intermediate circuit capacitors to discharge and check the
drive and motor connections.
Before you start, ensure you have the motor nameplate and encoder data (if
needed) at your hand.
