How to program synchronization
Change the value of parameter 701 to “2”. This will start the synchronization program of VLT 5000
.
To do the synchronization programming you use the following parameters:
Parameter 725
Type of operation: Record “2” or “5” for marker synchronization.
Parameter 732 Marker synchronization behaviour: Specify here how the slave drive is to react
while synchronizing to the master marker. “0” means the last marker pulse of
the master - the slave synchronizes to the last master marker pulse already
registered - it catches up. “1” means the next master marker pulse - the slave
waits for the next master marker and synchronizes to it - the slave slows down.
“2” means that the slave uses the nearest master marker - it decides for itself
whether to catch up or slow down.
Parameter 733 Accuracy: Record a value (quadcounts) for a tolerance within which the slave
position may deviate from the position of the master.
Parameter 734 Marker quantity Fault: Inaccuracy: Record the number of market signals to
generate a Fault signal.
Parameter 735 Marker quantity Ready: Accuracy: Record the number of marker signals to
generate a Ready signal.
Parameter 737 Gear ratio No.: Record the number of the gear ratio that is to be displayed in
Parameters 738 to 742. First set the number of the gear ratio, then in
Parameters 738 to 742 the necessary values for this gear ratio. The next gear
ratio is then selected in Parameter 737 and the same procedure is repeated.
Parameter 738 Gear ratio numerator: Record the numerator value for the gear ratio. That is
the encoder pulses of the slave drive. To make fine adjustment possible by
means of inputs 32 and 33 a ratio of for example 7:16 must be programmed
as 7000:16000.
Parameter 739 Gear ratio denominator: Record the denominator value of the gear ratio. This
value corresponds to the master pulses.
Parameter 740 Slave markers: Record the number of slave markers for the marker ratio.
Ensure that the gear ratio and the marker ratio match each other.
Parameter 741 Master markers: Record the number of master markers for the marker ratio.
Ensure that the gear ratio and the marker ratio match each other.
Parameter 742 Fixed Offset: Record a fixed position offset for the selected gear ratio (quad
counts). This value specifies the position deviation between the slave marker
and the master marker. During operation the offset can be changed by means
of inputs 32 and 33.
Note: Offset is related to the master position. Offset related to the slave
position can be calculated as follows:

Parameter 743 Step time: Record the delay in ms from one frequency change to another (hold
mode) and from one gear ratio numerator factor change to another
(synchronization mode) when there is a signal on terminal 32 or 33.
