Introduction: Parameterising the controller
[2-1]
Exemplary constellation for parameterising the controller
Being a component of a machine which includes a speed-variable drive system, the
controller needs to be adjusted to its drive task and the motor. The controller is adjusted by
changing parameters which are saved in the memory module.
The parameters can optionally be accessed from the diagnosis terminal, or the L-force
»Engineer«, or a master control via fieldbus communication:
Simply connect the diagnosis terminal to the diagnostic interface being located on the
top of the device.
The USB diagnostic adapter, for instance, can be used for the communication between
the PC (including the L-force »Engineer« software) and the controller, see illustration.
The USB diagnostic adapter is the connection between the PC (free USB port) and the
controller (diagnostic interface).
For fieldbus communication, you can choose between different communication units:
AS-i, CANopen and PROFIBUS.
Danger!
In general, changing a parameter causes an immediate response in the
controller!
• This may lead to undesirable behaviour on the motor shaft if the controller
has been enabled!
• Setpoint sources, for instance, may switch over all of a sudden (e.g. when
configuring the signal source for the main setpoint).
Certain device commands or settings which may cause critical states of drive
behaviour constitute exceptions. Such parameter changes are only possible if
the controller is inhibited. Otherwise, a corresponding error message will be
issued.
Information on how to commission the 8400 motec using the diagnosis terminal
can be found in the hardware manual!
