Configuration for PROFINET Control
After scanning the existing parameter settings from the drive, the user can modify them as needed
during the subsequent steps. Once satisfied, the parameters can be written back to the drive. If this is a
new drive, then all parameters should be default values. Any non-default value is displayed, highlighted
in blue (Figure 25). Many parameters will be specific to the motor and region where the drive is being
used. (For more information on drive parameters, refer to GFK-3111,
PACMotion Variable Speed Drives
User Manual.
) Once the motor and electrical parameters have been set, parameter P1-12 - Primary
Command Source should be set to 4: Fieldbus Control, which will enable PROFINET control of the drive.
Parameter P1-13 - Control Terminals Function Macro should be set to 1 for this example. Digital Input 1
must be On for the motor to run. This can be accomplished by wiring terminal 1 directly to terminal 2.
Figure 26 shows an example of more complete wiring.
WARNING
DANGER TO PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT
It is imperative P1-07 Motor Rated Voltage, P1-08 Motor Rated Current, and P1-09 Motor Rated
Frequency be set correctly for the attached motor before any attempt to operate the motor.
