Introduction

Introduction
This VLT 3000 to 5000 converter is a tool intended
for the conversion of a VLT 3000 to a VLT 5000,
which replaces the VLT 3000. The conversion is
possible for all VLT 3000s with the serial numbers
from XXXXXXG265.
To purchase (obligatory):
- VLT 5000 175X
- Software version 17.1x incl. memory option for
standard RS 485 communication,
ordering no.
175z3389
- Software version 17.1x incl. memory option and
Profibus option,
ordering no.
175z4668
Optional:
- Backplate for 5001-5005 Compact IP 20, ordering
no.
175Z2349
- Separate relay card, ordering no.
175Z1814
If two high voltage relays are needed in VLT 5000 a
separate relay card must be purchased

For the VLT 5001-5005 Compact IP20 the conversion
the purchase of a backplate (ordering number
175Z2349) is optional aswell.
Please notify some parameters in the VLT 3000 are
not supported in the VLT 5000 (see for example
page 5, parameter 107) and some VLT 5000
parameters can not be accessed via serial
communication.
■
Configuration
With the 17.1x software the VLT 5000 will react on
the Profibus network or the Standard Serial RS485
as a VLT 3000; it means that it is not necessary to
change anything in the PLC programme. A write
command to for example ramp up time in VLT 3000
is automatically linked to the corresponding ramp
up time parameter in VLT 5000. The GSD file in the
VLT 5000 will also be as the VLT 3000.
Please note that the converter software will only
work on a Profibus DP Norm network. It will not
work on a Sinec L2 or a Siemens DP network. You
can check your Profibus network either by the VLT
3000 or by the master.
After copying the baud rate, PPO type and station
address from the VLT 3000 to the VLT 5000, power
must be re-cycled to the VLT 5000 as these
parameters are only valid after power up. The
master should now recognize VLT 5000.
The two LED next to the Profibus connector should
now be solid green which indicates that
communication between master and slave is
established.

Profibus DP Norm
We support Profibus DP Norm by VLT 3000 with a
software version that should be higher than version
3.00. The software version number can be read
out in parameter 603, choice 3. The master must
be a Profibus DP Norm master. If a master from
Siemens S5 series is used the master must be an
IM-308C or IM-308B and higher or equal to version
6. All Siemens S7 series are Profibus DP Norm.

Setup of the converter software
Before VLT 3000 can be replaced with a VLT 5000
some parameters need to be setup in the VLT 5000.
Ensure that the parameters in the below table have
the same setting in VLT 5000 as in VLT 3000.
