AFDG/AFDU Startup Procedure

AFDG-SVU01L-EN

35 

Note:

If the set values do not match, contact the 
local Trane Service agency first, or, the 
La Crosse Business Unit Technical Service 
Department. The correct values are listed 
on the unit nameplate shipped with each 
unit.

5. In order to view the AFDG/AFDU configurable settings, 

go to the Chiller Configuration tab in the Tracer® TU 
service tool and select the AFD expanding section.

6. If the drive LLID is not found or if it is necessary to re-

bind the drive LLID, follow the procedure below.

a. The drive’s main DC bus must be charged in order 

for the drive LLID to be recognized or bound. Close 
the drive disconnect and apply line power to the 
drive. 

b. With a laptop connected to the chiller and with 

Tracer® TU running, enter the binding view menu 
of Tracer® TU and locate the “Starter” LLID in the 
menu. Select the “Bind” button for the AFD Starter 
LLID.

c. The screen “Is the device alone selected?” displays. 

In the AFD, wave magnet on the LLID and light the 
“service” LED. 

d. On the Tracer® TU screen, select the “yes” button 

to indicate the LLID has been selected. 

e. When properly bound, exit the binding view.

f. Perform any remaining startup items.

7. When ready, start the drive from the Tracer® 

AdaptiView™ display.

8. Check the AFDG/AFDU chiller drive response to the 

UC800. Initially, the drive will go to 38 hertz and stay 
there until the CenTraVac™ chiller vanes open based 
on load. The drive will change the speed from there 
based on load demand.

9. Document all information on the Startup log.

Drive Settings

Set the values in the order shown in 

Table 10

 based on 

information obtained from the chiller nameplate.

For additional information, refer to the programming 
manual that is shipped with the drive. The programming 
manual includes a detailed section that discusses 
accessing the parameters in the drive.

This process is summarized briefly below:

1. To access the parameters, press the 

Main Menu

 key.

2. If required, enter the password (

999

).

3. To select a parameter group, use the up/down arrow 

keys to highlight the parameter group, and then press 
the 

Enter

 key to access that group.

4. Use the up/down arrow keys to access the parameter 

number, and then press the 

OK

 key. 

5. Use the up/down arrow keys to change the parameter, 

and then press the 

OK

 key to change the setting.

6. If the chiller does not start, re-enter the motor kW, 

voltage, and current. The stator resistance and main 
reactance values will change based on the motor table 
look up that is built into the drive. 

If the motor still will 

not start,

 then perform an AMA (the AMA will 

physically measure the stator resistance and main 
reactance values, including the connecting cables 
between the drive and the motor; the values will then 
be set in the drive when the AMA is complete).

To perform an AMA:

a. Change the following parameters:

0-40 Hand on key; set to enable.

0-41 Off key; set to enable.

5-12 Terminal 27 digital input; set to 0, no 
function.

b. Go to parameter 1-29 automatic motor adaptation 

(AMA) and enter 1 to enable complete AMA.

c. Press the hand key “on” to start the AMA. The 

display should now begin to show the steps 
completing; there are approximately 16 steps that 
need to be completed. If the drive displays an Alarm 
53, change the motor voltage value in parameter 
1-22 (for example, change from 460 volt to 480 volt 
or visa versa) and then try running the AMA again.

d. After the AMA is finished, the display will read 

“Press OK to finish AMA.” Press 

OK

.

Important:

After the AMA is finished, set parameters 
0-40, 0-41, 5-12, and 1-29 back to their 
original settings.

7. If the drive is still having difficulty starting the motor, it 

may be necessary to perform a reset on the drive; this 
procedure will reset the drive parameters back to the 
original Danfoss defaults. After this has been 
completed, first set the parameters i

Table 11

 and 

then set the values in 

Table 10
