3.20.4 23-6* Trending
Trending is used to monitor a process variable over time
and record how often the data falls into each of 10 user-
defined data ranges. This is a convenient tool to obtain a
quick overview indicating where to focus on improvement
of operation.
2 sets of data for trending can be created to make it
possible to compare current values for a selected operating
variable with data for a certain reference period, for the
same variable. This reference period can be pre-
programmed (
parameter 23-63 Timed Period Start and
parameter 23-64 Timed Period Stop ). The 2 sets of data can
be read from parameter 23-61 Continuous Bin Data (current)
and parameter 23-62 Timed Bin Data (reference).
It is possible to create trending for the following operation
variables:
•
Power.
•
Current.
•
Output frequency.
•
Motor speed.
The trending function includes 10 counters (forming a bin)
for each set of data containing the numbers of
registrations reflecting how often the operating variable is
within each of 10 pre-defined intervals. The sorting is
based on a relative value of the variable.
The relative value for the operating variable is determined
as:
•
Actual/rated x 100% - for power and current.
•
Actual/max x 100% - for output frequency and
motor speed.
The size of each interval can be adjusted individually, but
is 10% for each as default. Power and current can exceed
rated value, but those registrations are included in 90–
100% (MAX) counter.

Illustration 3.77 Time and Relative Values
Once per second, the value of the operating variable
selected is registered. If a value has been registered to
equal 13%, the counter 10 to <20% is updated with the
value 1. If the value stays at 13% for 10 s, 10 is added to
the counter value.
The contents of counters can be shown as bars on the LCP.

NOTICE
The counters start counting whenever the frequency
converter is powered up. A power cycle shortly after a
reset resets the counters. EEPROM data is updated once
per hour.
23-60 Trend Variable
Option: Function:
Select the required operating variable to be
monitored for trending.
[0] Power [kW] Power yielded to the motor. Reference for the
relative value is the rated motor power
programmed in
parameter 1-20 Motor Power
[kW] or parameter 1-21 Motor Power [HP] . The
actual value can be read in
parameter 16-10 Power [kW] or
parameter 16-11 Power [hp] .
[1] Current [A] Output current to the motor. Reference for the
relative value is the rated motor current
programmed in
parameter 1-24 Motor Current .
The actual value can be read in
parameter 16-14 Motor current .
[2]
*
Frequency
[Hz] Output frequency to the motor. Reference for
the relative value is the maximum output
frequency programmed in
parameter 4-14 Motor Speed High Limit [Hz] . The
actual value can be read in
parameter 16-13 Frequency .
[3] Motor
Speed
[RPM]
Reference for the relative value is the
maximum motor speed programmed in
parameter 4-13 Motor Speed High Limit [RPM] .
