Next, press
on the Digital Operator. The IMPULSE•G+/VG+ Series 4 will
now start the Auto-Tuning procedure. The display will show message “
Tune
Successful
” when the Auto-Tuning procedure has been successfully completed.
Please reference the technical manual or repeat the procedure again if the
display shows an error message.
Encoder Direction
Check the motor speed monitor U01-05
while turning the motor manually in forward
direction (CW). If the sign displayed is
negative, power down the drive,
wait at
least five minutes until the charge
indicator extinguishes completely
, then
swap encoder wires A+ with A- on the
PG-X3 card. Next, power up the drive and
repeat this test. Or, reverse the encoder
direction with parameter F01-02.
Frequently Asked Questions
Question:
How do I reset the drive back to factory
default settings?
Answer:
Go to parameter A01-05 and enter 1110.
Question:
How do I adjust the time it takes the motion to
speed up or slow down?
Answer:
Adjust the acceleration time parameter B05-01
and deceleration time parameter B05-02.
Question:
How do I prevent my drive from tripping on an
OV fault (overvoltage) while my motor is ramping down?
Answer:
Increase deceleration time parameter B05-02
and check braking resistor.
Question:
How do I prevent my drive from tripping on an
OL1 fault (overload) while my motor is ramping down?
Answer:
Verify motor rated current parameter E02-01
and motor overload protection time parameter L01-02.
Question:
How can I run my motor above the base
motor speed?
Answer:
Increase the value of parameter E01-04
Maximum Frequency.
Verify that the motor and system allow for this.
Question:
How can I change motor direction without
changing the motor leads?
Answer:
Set parameter B03-04 to 1 (exchange phases).
Question:
What should I do when the drive detects a
brake failure and displays a BE6 or BE8 fault?
Answer:
Do not turn off power! Lower the load to the
ground and inspect the brakes.
Question:
On an IMPULSE•VG+ Series 4 hoist
application, why does the brake stay open temporarily at
the end of a run?
Answer:
This feature is called Load Float and reduces
wear on the brakes. See parameter C08-10 to adjust the
time.
Question:
Where can I find troubleshooting information
regarding faults and alarms?
Answer:
Reference the technical manual.
