5.5.2 I²t monitoring synchronous motor
A synchronous motor by design has lower loss than an asynchronous motor,
because permanent magnets replace the magnetizing current. It is normally not
internally cooled, but discharges its heat loss by internal convection. For that reason
a synchronous motor has a different characteristic to an asynchronous motor. It is
necessary to adapt the I
2
t characteristic because the factory setting mostly does not
exactly map the present motor.

If the I
2
t type is set to "THERM(1) = Thermal time constant dependent", all settings
apart from the thermal time constant are disabled.
If the integrator exceeds its limit value, the error E-09-01 is triggered. The current
value of the integrator is indicated in P 701[0] - Mon_ActValues.
NOTE
l
The limits are specified in Servo Drive as percentages of the rated
quantities (e.g. current, torque, speed,...) of the motor. The defaults
relate to 100 % of the rated quantities.
