VISUAL DRIVE SETUP Parameterization software for INFRANOR drives User manual Visual Drive Setup

Visual Drive Setup ! VISUAL DRIVE SETUP is a parameterization software for INFRANOR servo drives. It shall be used only by skilled operators, according to the EN 60204-1 standard. During the drive parameterization, the operator has to read carefully the messages displayed by the software as the execution of some procedures requires special safety measures. The commissioning of INFRANOR drives also requires to follow the instructions contained in the pertaining manuals. INFRANOR does not assume any responsibility for any physical or material damage due to improper use of the VISUAL DRIVE SETUP...

Chapter 1 – General description 1.1 - INTRODUCTION The VISUAL DRIVE SETUP (VDSetup) software is designed for the parameterization of the INFRANOR "B" and "C" series drives from a PC and via an RS232 serial link. Further, this software allows the user to run a motor in speed control or to start a motion sequence (positioners) for checking the correct parameterization. 1.2 - VALIDITY The present issue of this manual is valid as from the pertaining version 4.0 of the Visual Drive Setup software. The auto-phasing procedure allows the automatic calculation of the motor parameters and the resolver...

Visual Drive Setup Chapter 2 – Installation of the software 2.1 - MINIMUM CONFIGURATION The use of the Visual Drive Setup software requires the minimum PC configuration described below: - Pentium II processor, 32 MB RAM, screen with 256 colours and 800x600 resolution keyboard + mouse Windows95© or WindowsNT4© operating system 8 MB available on the hard disk. RS232 cable or USB/RS232 adapter cable. 2.2 - INSTALLATION From disks Insert disk n° 1 and double-click on file "setup.exe" of this disk. Follow the instructions until the complete installation of the software. From a CD-Rom Insert the CD...

The communication parameters can get the following modifications: - For modifying the port number, go to menu Setup/Select Com_Port and select a port among COM1 to COM8. For modifying the communication speed, go to menu Setup/Select Baudrate and select a speed among the listed ones. For entering the serial address of the connected drive, go to menu Setup/Select Address, and select an address in the list. For setting up the communication, go to menu Setup/Connect or click on the icon representing a telephone. Every time the hardware connection with an amplifier is performed, the number of the...

Visual Drive Setup Status: A status indicator may group several errors. The detail of these errors is displayed in the error messages window. Clicking on button Reset will delete the errors stored in the drive, provided that these errors have been cancelled before. According to the type of the connected drive, the meaning of the status indicators will be the following: Following error: Dynamic following error (speed or position, according to the drive type). I2t: Motor rms current is higher than the drive rated current. RDC/Counting: Counting error (motor with a resolver) Position sensor: Resolver...

Error messages: This frame displays the errors occuring on the drive. When an error occurs, a ? button is displayed that allows the display of an area containing information for eliminating this error. This button as well as the information area are not displayed anymore when the error is cancelled. Chapter 2 – Installation of the software

Visual Drive Setup The software makes possible, for the operator: - to know the amplifier type and rating (automatic detection when connecting), - to display the errors, the status of the control signals and of the inputs/outputs, - to programme the sensor type (encoder or resolver) on the latest generation CD1 amplifiers, - to start the auto-phasing procedure, - to start the auto-tuning procedure, - to start the acquisition and cogging torque compensation procedures, - to manually adjust the servo loop gains, - to adjust the various parameters (motor, limitations, application, ...), - to display...
