1.1.2 Disposal of PackagingAll packaging materials are made from cardboard and/or wood are able to berecycled at your local recycling centre.

1.2 Installation of the Elite Series1.2.1 Installation EnvironmentFigure 1.1 details the dimensions and weights of the Elite Series range ofinduction motor controllers. The ambient temperature of the installation locationmust not exceed 50°C (122°F). An ambient temperature below 40°C (104°F) ispreferable, for longer component lifetime, and to enable extra output rating to beachieved for pump and fan installations.

The internal components of the Elite Series are sealed from the cooling air. Thusthe drive is protected against an environment contaminated to pollution degree 3(damp or dusty air).

Each Elite Series motor controller must have cooling air available and willcontribute to heating the environment in which it is mounted. Details are given inFigure 1.2 from which the total cooling load should be calculated. Any airconditioning or ventilation system used in the plant room must be capable ofhandling this load, plus that caused by any other dissipative devices in the sameroom, while keeping the ambient air temperature below 40°C to 50°C (104°F to122°F). The air delivery system must be able to handle the total calculated airflow, with allowance made for system back pressure.

1.3 Connecting the Elite SeriesRemove the terminal cover for access to the gland plate and terminals. Allexternal wiring should be passed through the gland plate supplied. Glands mustbe correctly fitted to the cables and the gland plate screws tightened to therecommended torque of 3.5Nm to preserve the IP54 rating of the Elite Series.

1.3.1 Power WiringWARNING:

ENSURE SUPPLY IS ISOLATED BEFORE WIRING UP

Refer to Figure 1.4 for power wiring details. The following notes refer to thedrawing.

1. The Elite Series is designed for operation from a three phase earthed neutralsupply. The drive and its cooling fans are not phase sequence sensitive.Input fuses must be installed. Fuses must be a general purpose LV h.r.c typeintended for distribution circuits, of a voltage rating to suit the supply (typically440Vac - 600Vac). Fuse ratings are shown in Figure 1.5.

2. Power factor correction capacitors are not required on the Elite Series input,and must not be connected to the Elite Series output.

3. An off load isolation switch or contactor may be fitted to the Elite Seriesoutput. Never attempt to operate this isolator under load. The Elite Seriesoperates as a current source and opening the output while running couldcause extensive damage or fire in the switchgear.

4. To maintain electromagnetic compatibility use screened cable (e.g. neutralscreen, steel conduit) on the Elite Series output. Bond the screen solidly tothe drive and motor chassis. Run the output cables separately from the inputcables to reduce the chance of RFI cross-coupling. Failure to use screenedoutput cables may lead to disruption of other electronic equipment.

5. The Elite Series protects the motor with an electronic overload, so an externaloverload relay is not necessary. Where multiple motors are attached,separate overload protection must be applied to each motor.

6 The Elite Series output waveform can give rise to high (capacitive) earthleakage currents. Permanent earth connection of both the motor and theElite Series is essential before connection to the supply.

7. For applications where regeneration is likely to occur, a dynamic brakeresistor may be required. The resistor must be positioned so that any heatgenerated by it will not ignite or damage its surroundings. Refer to the EliteSeries Technical Manual (PDL Part No. 4201-180) for dynamic brake setupinformation.

8. The location and order of the power terminals varies from model to model.Refer to the terminal labels before connection.

1.3.2 Motor RotationUSE OF �+� AND ���

�+� Speed is used to describe speed in the forward direction.

According to IEC34-7, the motor rotates clockwise when:� viewed from the shaft end� terminals U1, V1 and W1 or U2, V2 and W2 are connected to theElite Series output phases U, V, W respectively� the Elite Series is operating with �+� speed.

��� is used to describe speed in the reverse direction of the motor.

1.3.3 Display MountingThe display unit may be rotated in 90° increments, to suit the mountingorientation of the Elite Series. The display unit may also be mounted remotelyfrom the drive, to a maximum of 3 metres.

1.3.4 Control WiringControl Wiring RecommendationsBring the control wiring into the enclosure through the gland plate, and installglands to maintain IP54 integrity. Loom control wiring and power wiringseparately, at least 300 mm apart and crossing only at right angles. Controlcables must be screened to ensure correct operation. Connect the screen onlyto the ground at the Elite Series to prevent ground loops.

Connection recommendations are:Maximum tightening torque: 0.5 Nm (4.5 lb-in)Maximum cable size: 1.5 mm2 appliance wire

(26 - 14 AWG Cu)Maximum number of cables per terminal: TwoCable stripping length: 7 mm (0.28 in)

The default configuration of the digital inputs is active high. i.e., the common of allmulti-function input switches should be connected to +24Vdc (Terminal T21).

The External Trip/PTC input must be connected to +24Vdc (Terminal T21) (whenset for active high) for the Elite Series to start and run a motor.

1.3.5 Earthing of Control 0VTo comply with the requirements of a Class 1 earthing system, the Elite Seriescontrol 0V must be linked to earth at some point. Connection of multiple earthpoints may cause earth loops and should be avoided. An earth link is providedbetween Terminal T20 and the terminal surround plate and must be removed ifnot required. Removal will allow the 0V point to float up to ±50Vdc (30Vac) fromchassis earth.

1.3.6 Shaft Encoder Selection and MountingA shaft encoder will be needed if operating the Elite Series in closed loop vectorcontrol mode.

Referring to Figure 2.2, when �+� or �−� are used to scroll through the screens, nosubscreens are shown. If a particular subscreen is required, scroll to theassociated group, then press and release �∗�. This will unfold all of the screensassociated with that group. �+� will move down through the subscreens,stopping on the last subscreen in a group. �−� will move up through thesubscreens, until the group title is reached. This will cause the screens toautomatically refold.

2.1.3 Parameter and Mode AdjustmentOnce a screen group has been unfolded and a screen selected, the parameteror mode displayed on the control line may be adjusted. For a screen withaccess rights configured as �hidden� or �read only�, this adjustment may only bemade if the Elite Series is in COMMISSIONING mode.

Adjustment is done by operating �∗� and �+� or �-� keys, to increase or decreasethe parameter respectively.

2.2 Configuring of Operating ModeBefore livening the Elite Series motor controller, it is important that you know theintended operating mode and control configuration of the drive. These may havebeen preset into the Elite Series before dispatch. Alternatively this may havebeen predetermined by an Applications Engineer but still need to be programmedinto the Elite Series. If this is the case, you as the installer may have totemporarily set up a mode and configuration, to allow livening and testing.

3.1 Commissioning Without Motor3.1.1 ForewordThis commissioning guide is not intended to fully commission the Elite Series toits final application. It is intended to prepare the drive to have its finalconfiguration installed (possibly by others).

This commissioning should only be undertaken after all wiring has beencompleted and verified as detailed in Section 1.

3.1.2 Checks Before Powering upCHECK INSTALLATIONCheck that the Elite Series will not be subject to an unacceptable environment.Check that adequate cooling airflow is available. Check that no tools, swarf, orhardware have been left in the drive.

CHECK POWER WIRINGCheck that all supply and motor cabling is correctly dimensioned for theapplication, the Elite Series is bonded to earth, and electrical connections aresecure. The cable between the Elite Series and motor should be of screenedconstruction, with the screen (forming the earth connection) solidly bonded to themotor and the Elite Series chassis. Ensure that the motor and power wiring arenot transposed. Note that the Elite Series does not have internal power fuses.Check that the correct fuses (Figure 1.4) are fitted at the supply.

CHECK CONTROL WIRINGControl wiring must be screened and run separately from power cables.Check that there are no loose strands, and that all terminal screws or bolts havebeen tightened. Check that the control wiring conforms to the requiredconfiguration � active high or active low. Note that the default configuration isactive high.

WARNING: If the previous setup of the Elite Series is not known � remove thelink from the External Trip Input (Terminal T19). This will trip the unit and preventpossible instantaneous starting of the motor upon applying power to the EliteSeries.

3.1.3 Applying Power to the Elite SeriesBEFORE PROCEEDING, ISOLATE THE MOTOR. Switch on the mainssupply to the Elite Series.

CHECK DRIVE OPERATIONCheck that the cooling fan is blowing air through the heatsink. Check that thedisplay lights up. Check that the DC Bus Live LED is glowing red. Screen A4 willbe initially displayed (unless the Elite Series has tripped on a protective function).

3.2 Preliminary Control Setup3.2.1 ForewordThe Elite Series has an advanced and adaptable set of motor control features.

A very flexible set of options for configuration of the digital, analogue and fibreoptic inputs and outputs; coupled with multiple ramp rates and start/stop modesallows the user to modify the Elite Series motor controller to suit their processcontrol system.

The adaptability of the Elite Series permits the user to tailor the performancerequirements through selecting V/Hz or Open Loop Vector control mode (Speedcontrol) and the Closed Loop Vector control modes (Speed and Torque control).

The screen list is shown in Appendix 1.

Before proceeding, ensure that the Elite Series is in COMMISSIONING mode.Refer to Section 2.2.2 for details.

3.2.2 Checking of Analogue InputsIf analogue inputs are being used to control the Elite Series, they must have theirformat correctly configured. By default, Analogue Input 1 is 0 to 10Vdc, andAnalogue Input 2 is 4 to 20mA. These may be re-configured if necessary byusing Screens I6a (Analogue Input 1) and I6d (Analogue Input 2).

Once correctly configured, the Analogue Input 1 (Terminal T26) and AnalogueInput 2 (Terminal T27) can be checked by observing Screen Z3 (refer Figure 3.1)and Screen Z4 respectivily.

Reference 1: Indicates the relative level of the Analogue Input in percentFor ±10V input, -10V = 0%; +10V = 99%For 0-10V input, 0V = 0%; +10V = 99%For 0-20mA input, 0mA = 0%; 20mA = 99%For 4-20mA input, 4mA = 0%; 20mA = 99%

3.2.3 Checking of Analogue OutputsIf analogue outputs are being used, their formats must be correctly configured onthe Elite Series Control Board to suit the devices they are driving. Both outputsmay be configured for 0-10Vdc, -10 to +10Vdc, 4 to 20mA or 0 to 20mA. Theseformat configurations can be done from Screens O1b (Analogue Output 1), andO1f (Analogue Output 2).

Once their respective formats are configured, the operation of the outputs can beconfirmed as follows. For Analogue Output 1, scroll to Screen O1a, and selectMode 1 (Full Scale). For Analogue Output 2, scroll to Screen O1e and selectMode 1 (Full Scale). This should cause the respective analogue outputs to bedriven to their maximum. Check that the driven devices are driven to their fullscale. When these tests are complete, restore Screens O1a, O1e to therequired modes (if known).

Once correctly configured, the Analogue Output 1 (Terminal T23) and AnalogueOutput 2 (Terminal T24) can be checked by observing Screen Z5 (referFigure 3.2) and Screen Z6 respectively.

Reference 1: Indicates the relative level of the Analogue Output in percentFor ± 10V output, -10V = 0%; +10V = 99%For 0-10V output, 0V = 0%; +10V = 99%For 0-20mA output, 0mA = 0%; 20mA = 99%For 4-20mA output, 4mA = 0%; 20mA = 99%

3.2.6 Preliminary SetupInitially, the motor should be energized and controlled without using any externalinput devices. Thus it is recommended to set up for operation under front panelcontrol. This is achieved by setting up the following screens:

N1 to N5 Motor Current, Volts, Frequency, kW, RPM. Copy from the motor�s rating plate.

I1 LOCAL S/STP=3 (enables local keyboard Start/Stop-Reset)

I2 REF S = LOCAL (reference speed source = local keyboard)

I7a I/P MODE= 0 (Local control only) (disables all multi-function puts)

Page 29: ELITE SERIES GETTING STARTED MANUAL - …thomasblairpe.com/quick.pdfELITE SERIES GETTING STARTED MANUAL. Elite Series Œ Getting Started 4201-179 Rev G 2 Contents Section 1: Unpacking,

29

A3 LOCAL SP = 0% (sets local speed to zero)

A1 LOCAL MODE = SP (sets to speed control mode)

X1 CONTROL TYPE= 02 V/Hz (sets for V/Hz speed control mode)

This configures the operation mode to V/Hz speed control mode. If open orclosed loop vector operation mode is required, this parameter should be setcorrectly later.

3.2.7 Shaft Encoder ConfigurationIf a shaft encoder is to be used to operate the Elite Series in closed loop vectorcontrol mode, appropriate configurations must be programmed as follows:

Type of Encoder:The type of encoder (single ended output or differential output) must be identified,and programmed into Screen N9.

Encoder Pulses per Revolution:This parameter must be programmed into Screen N8, as the encoder pulses perrevolution of the motor shaft. If the encoder is driven directly from the motorshaft, then this figure will be the shaft encoder pulses per revolution. If theencoder is indirectly driven, for example by a toothed belt and pulleyarrangement, then any ratio change must be accounted for. If it is impossible todetermine the drive ratio between the motor shaft and the encoder shaft, then theratio may be calculated by carefully turning the motor shaft through an exactnumber of revolutions, and observing the change in count on Screen Z9. Dividethe count change by the number of revolutions of the motor shaft, and enter theresult into Screen N8.

3.2.8 Dynamic Brake Configuration (if fitted)If a dynamic brake has been installed in conjunction with the Elite Series,configure by setting Screens D1, D2.

D1 DB Time Constant Time that the brake resistor will take to reach 64% ofits final temperature if continuously energized.

D2 DB Duty Average percentage of time that the resistor may be energizedfor, without damage (when averaged over periods long in comparison tothe time constant).

Elite Series � Getting Started 4201-179 Rev G

30

If the dynamic brake resistor has been supplied by PDL Electronics Ltd., thesuggested settings will have been supplied. If a dynamic brake has not beenfitted, leave at the default values.

If the dynamic brake is being used check the status on Screen Z10(Z10 RLY:OXX DB:X) during normal operation. A Closed (X) status indicatesthat the dynamic brake has operated since the last screen update. An Open (O)status indicates that the dynamic brake has not operated since the last screenupdate.

3.2.9 Checking of Fibre Optic InputScreen Z8 displays the status of the Fibre Optic Input (and the Serial input).

If the fibre optic input port is being used as a speed or torque reference thencheck that an X is displayed on Screen Z8 (Z8 FI:X SERIAL:O). A Closed (X)status indicates that a valid fibre optic data packet has been received since thelast screen update. An Open (O) status indicates that no valid data packet hasbeen received since the last screen update. An X (Closed) should be displayedat all times when the fibre optic input is receiving valid data.

3.2.10 Checking of Serial InputScreen Z8 displays the status of the Serial Input (and the Fibre Optic input).

If the serial port is being used check that an X is displayed on Screen Z8(Z8 FI:O SERIAL:X). A Closed (X) status indicates that a valid serial data packethas been received since the last screen update. An Open (O) status indicatesthat no valid data packet has been received since the last screen update.

3.3 Energising the Motor3.3.1 Connecting the MotorWARNING:Check that all personnel are clear of the motor and attachedmachinery, and that it is safe to operate the motor. If the motor is out of sight ofthe Elite Series motor controller, it may be necessary to have someone in radioor telephone contact with yourself standing by the motor, to ensure safety and toreport any unusual occurrences.

Remove the isolation from the motor. If the motor has been disconnected, powerdown the Elite Series, allow to discharge, and reconnect the motor terminals.Power up the drive and proceed.

START the Elite Series by using the front panel START push-button.Scroll to Screen A3 and increase the set speed by pressing �∗� then �+�.Check that the motor is turning in the expected (forward) direction. If not, STOPthe drive, power it down, wait for discharge, and swap any two motorterminations over. Power up the drive and proceed.

Elite Series � Getting Started 4201-179 Rev G

31

3.3.2 Checking the Shaft Encoder (if fitted)If a shaft encoder is fitted to the motor (i.e., for operation in closed loop vectormode) check that the encoder is correctly connected.

Check Screen Z9. It should be indicating a changing encoder pulse count. If thisscreen does not register any change in count, even though the motor is turning,check the encoder mechanical coupling and electrical connections.

If the motor is running in a forward direction (indicated by REF SPD, displayed byScreen A4, being +ve) the encoder count (Screen Z9) should be counting UP.Also the status (top) line of the display should indicate a +ve actual speed. If theencoder is indicating that the motor is running in a reverse direction, but in factthe motor is running in the preferred forward direction, swap two encoderoutputs. For a differential output type shaft encoder, either swap wires intocontrol terminals T31, T32 (A, /A) or swap wires into terminals T33, T34 (B, /B).For a single-ended output type encoder, that does not have /A, /B outputs, swapwires into terminals T31, T33 (A, B).

Stop the motor by using the Display Unit STOP-RESET push-button.

3.3.3 AutotuningThe motor must be correctly characterised for good dynamic performance. Thiscan be done automatically by the Elite Series. Autotuning is controlled fromScreen X2.

Autotuning will automatically set optimum values for the following parameters(without turning the motor):

X3a Lm Motor Main InductanceX3b Rs Stator ResistanceX3c Rr Rotor ResistanceX3d SIGMA Total Leakage Inductance

The motor must be stopped for Autotuning to function correctly.

WARNING:Autotuning applies voltage to the terminals of the motor. Check thatall personnel are clear of the motor and attached machinery, and that it is safe tooperate the motor.

Screen X2 selects AUTOTUNE options, as follows:

X2 AUTOTUNE = NO Autotuning not activeAUTOTUNE = YES This tunes the motor without moving the motor.

Autotuning may take several seconds to complete.

3.3.4 Preliminary Commissioning CompleteThe Elite Series motor controller has now been completely installed andchecked. The unit is now ready for final commissioning.

4.1 Operation Mode and ConfigurationFigure 4.2 summarises the Screen List available by default. Full descriptions ofall screens are given in the Elite Series Technical Manual, PDL Part No. 4201-180.

4.1.1 Operation ModesThe Elite Series may be set up to run in one of four operation modes. These areshown in Figure 4.1.

Open Loop Vector Operating Mode:For general-purpose speed control applications, e.g. pumps, fans, conveyorsetc. A shaft encoder is not needed. Configuration to this mode is set byprogramming Screen X1 to Open Loop Vector.

V/Hz Operating Mode:For general-purpose speed control applications, e.g. pumps, fans, conveyorsetc. A shaft encoder is not needed.This open loop speed control mode generatesan output with a fixed voltage vs frequency profile. Suitable for running multipleparallel motors from one Elite Series. Select by setting Screen X1 Control Type= 02-V/Hz.

Also use V/Hz mode when autotuning an Elite Series motor controller.

Closed Loop Vector Mode - Torque Control:For use in torque control applications, e.g. winder systems, position controlapplications with an external speed-position controller. A quadrature shaftencoder will be required on the motor, to provide rotor position feedback.

To set up this mode of operation, set the encoder pulses per motor shaftrevolution on Screen N8 and program Screen X1 to Closed Loop Vector. Thenselect torque control mode, either by appropriately configuring one of the multi-function inputs (Screen I7c to I7h, Selection 16 Speed/Torque Mode) andactivating the switch, or by setting for torque control mode (ScreenA1 LOCAL MODE=TQ).

Closed Loop Vector Mode - Speed Control:Recommended for servomotor type applications, where fast dynamic responseis required, and for crane hoists and other applications where full torquecapability at zero speed is required. A quadrature shaft encoder is required onthe motor, to provide rotor position and speed feedback.

To set up this mode of operation, set the encoder pulses per motor shaftrevolution on Screen N8 and program Screen X1 to Closed Loop Vector. Thenselect speed mode, either by appropriately configuring one of the multi-functioninputs (Screen I7c to I7h, Selection 16 Speed/Torque Mode) and deactivating theswitch, or by setting for speed control mode (Screen A1 LOCAL MODE=SP).

When operating in closed loop vector mode, switching between speed controland torque control modes can be done without stopping the Elite Series.

Select the required speed or torque reference source from Screen I2, I3. If analternative source is required, e.g. for local/remote or auto/manual control, selectfrom Screens I4, I5.

If Analogue Input 1 is to be used as a reference source, set format and scalingfrom Screens I6a, I6b, I6c. Similarly, Screens I6d, I6e, I6f set up Analogue Input2.

If a zero band is required, set on Screen I6g. This sets a definite zero speed orzero torque region when using either analogue input.

If the fibre optic input is to be used as a reference source, set scaling fromScreens I8a, I8b.

Configure the multi-function inputs (MFIs) from Screens I7. Screen I7a programsthe MFIs in groups, while I7c to I7h programs each individually.

Configure the MFIs for active high or active low from Screen I7b.

4.1.3 Output ConfigurationSelect the function, format and scaling of Analogue Output 1 from Screens O1a,O1b, O1c, O1d. Similarly, Screens O1e, O1f, O1g, O1h set up AnalogueOutput 2.

Select the required output relay functions from Screens O2a, O2c, O2e, andtheir sense from Screens O2b, O2d, O2f.

If using the fibre optic output, set function and scaling from Screens O3a, O3b,and O3c.

4.1.4 Acceleration and Deceleration RatesIf operating the Elite Series as a speed controller, set required acceleration anddeceleration rates from Screens R1, R2. Generally, set for the requiredresponse without torque limiting when accelerating (indicated by TLT on statusline of display) and without excess regeneration on deceleration (indicated byVLT on status line). These rates active only when speed controlling.

If two rates are required, set alternative rates and break speed on Screens R3,R4, R5.

Set required deceleration rate when emergency stopping on Screen R6.

4.1.5 Speed and Torque LimitsSet speed limits by Screens L2, L3. Normally set outside the range of thereference speed input. Should be active only when in torque control mode onlight load. Indicated by SLT on status line of display.

Set torque limits by Screens L4, L5. Normally set outside the range of the torquereference input. Should only be active when in speed control modes, onoverloads (indicated by TLT on status line of display). Also torque limitingbecomes active on loss of shaft encoder pulses when running in closed loopvector mode.

Set speed limit timeout on Screen L6. Drive will trip if speed limiting exceeds thistime.

Set torque limit timeout on Screen L7. Drive will trip if torque limiting exceedsthis time. Provides protection against loss of shaft encoder pulses.

4.1.6 Multi-referencesSet Screens M1 to M7 in conjunction with certain input modes (Screens I7) aspreset torque or speed references.

4.2 Closed Loop Vector Speed Loop TuningIf operating the Elite Series in vector speed control mode, the speed feedbackloop proportional, integral and derivative parameters (Screens X4f, X4g, X4h) willrequire tuning. Default values will give stable but not optimum performance.

4.2.1 Speed Loop Proportional Gain (Screen X4f)If possible, decouple the load, and start the Elite Series. Set to a speed greaterthan 50%. Now increase proportional gain (Screen X4f Kp w) slowly until themotor is heard to go unstable. This instability can also be noticed on the statusline of the display unit, by the indicated speed starting to jump around. Note thesetting of Screen X4f at this point, and back off the setting to 50% of this value.

4.2.2 Speed Loop Integral Gain (Screen X4g)Once Screen X4f is set as described above, set to a speed greater than 50%.Scroll to Screen X4g Ki w and increase the integral gain slowly until the motor isheard to go unstable. This instability can also be noticed on the status line of thedisplay unit, by the indicated speed starting to jump around. Note the setting ofScreen X4g at this point, and back off the setting to 80% of this value.

4.2.3 Speed Loop Derivative Gain (Screen X4h)The derivative gain will only need adjusting if extremely fast response is required.Set up very fast ramp rates (Screens R2, R4, R6 =6000%/s) and stop the drivewhile observing the motor shaft. Any tendency for the shaft to oscillate onstopping can be damped by adjusting Screen X4h Kd w.

4.2.4 Use of Analogue Output in Tuning Speed LoopIf it is not possible to observe the motor or load from the location of the EliteSeries, the motor speed may be observed by programming an analogue outputto indicate motor speed (Screen O1a or O1e). Set the output format for 0-10Vdc (Screen O1b or O1f). Set the output span from 0% to +100% (ScreenO1c, O1d or O1g, O1h). Now connect an oscilloscope to the analogue outputand observe speed response to tuning parameter variation on the oscilloscope.Also check response to step changes in speed reference.
