Rotational Auto-tuneThis is the preferred method for vector control performance and will yield the best data for all control modes. The motor must be uncoupled from the load for proper results. The motor will rotate with this method. The rotational Auto-tuning method must be used in the following cases: operation above the motor's rated speed, torque control, and the Open Loop Vector 2 control method in the G7 drive.

Bulletin for Generation 7 AC Drives - 14472 DriveWizard™

This support tool is a Windows-based PC program designed to make commissioning and troubleshooting of Yaskawa drives as simple as possible. The user-friendly DriveWizard exchanges data with any generation 7 drive. Data can be retrieved, reviewed, changed, stored, and graphed. Parameter Management HSB functions during motor stopping, not duringnormal deceleration by reduced frequency reference. HSB is not available for continuous regenerative loads suchas elevators, winders, or test stands. HSB is not suitable forpositioning applications such as transfer machines. HSB can only be used in V/f control or V/f control w/ PG.

High Slip Braking (HSB)

The High Slip Braking function dissipates regenerative deceleration energy in the motor by creating a large slip condition. This function is ideal for high inertia rotating loads such as centrifuges, presses, and blowers; and requires no braking resistor. Braking times can be achieved that are approximately 50% less than the time required to decelerate a load normally. The exact stopping time, however, is machine and load inertia dependent. HSB has the following application considerations: Easy-to-use spreadsheet format Parameters arranged in groups
Typical display showing drive monitor graphing function. All parameter attributes displayed Parameter list is dynamic to respond to changes in operationmodes, options, etc.

Custom Software

Changes and errors shown in colors Custom software, sometimes referred to as CASE software,replaces the drive's standard software and adds new functionality or enhances existing standard functions. CASE (Custom Application Software Environment) allows for easy customization by Yaskawa engineers to solve difficult applications and eliminateperipheral equipment. For example, within F7 CASE,the following additional items can be enabled: 30custom parameters, 8 digital input functions, 3digital output functions, 2 analog input functions,10 analog output functions, 5 faults, 5 alarms,custom sequencing (start/stop), and a customfrequency reference.Existing titles include 1500Hz High Frequency, ElectronicLineshaft, Spindle Orientation, Enhanced PID, Motion Control, and many others. CASE software is available for the F7, G7, P7 V7 and V74X drives. Mouse click help for each parameter Parameter files can be edited offline and used in otherapplications such as Microsoft ExcelGraphing Function Graph any of the drive monitors, up to 8 simultaneously Change colors, lines and graph display Expand or condense, vertically or horizontally Position marker can be addedWith one software tool, maintenance personnel can easilymaintain a large quantity and any combination of drives.
