The drive can operate under Open Loop and RFC modes with respect to frequency and current control and can drive asynchronous machines. The open loop asynchronous control is further broken down into vector and fixed boost modes.

The Output Power (05.003) is the power flowing via the a.c. terminals of the drive. The power is derived as the dot product of the output voltage and current vectors, and so this is correct even if the motor parameters are incorrect and the motor model does not align the reference frame with the flux axis of a motor. A positive value of power indicates power flowing from the drive to the motor.

Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) and Motor Rated Voltage (05.009) define the frequency to voltage characteristic applied to the motor. See Control Mode (05.014) for more details. Motor Rated Frequency (05.006), Motor Rated Speed (05.008) and Number Of Motor Poles (05.011) are used to calculate the rated slip of the motor for slip compensation.
Rated slip (Hz) = Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) - (Pole pairs x Motor Rated Speed (05.008) / 60)
where
Pole pairs = the numeric value of Number Of Motor Poles (05.011) (i.e. 3 for a 6 pole motor)
If slip compensation is required Motor Rated Speed (05.008) should be set to the motor nameplate value, which should give the correct compensation for a hot motor provide the nameplate value is correct. Slip compensation can be used throughout the speed range of the motor, i.e. below base speed and in the flux weakening region, to correct the motor speed to minimise the change of speed with load. Motor Rated Speed (05.008) can be set to a value that is higher than synchronous speed to deliberately introduce speed droop, which can be used to aid load sharing with mechanically coupled motors.
Slip compensation is disabled under the following conditions:
It should be noted that Motor Rated Speed (05.008) is used to calculate the rotor time constant of the motor which is then used to determine the flux build-up time at the start of the catch a spinning motor algorithm. If spinning start is required (i.e. Catch A Spinning Motor (06.009) ≥ 1) then Motor Rated Speed (05.008) should be set up correctly for the motor. If slip compensation is not required, it can be disabled by setting Slip Compensation Level (05.027) to 0.0%.

Motor Rated Power Factor (05.010) is the true power factor of the motor under rated conditions, i.e. the cosine of the angle between the motor voltage and current. If Stator Inductance (05.025) is set to a non-zero value then the stator inductance is used to calculate the rated magnetising current for the motor and the rated power factor can be calculated by the drive. Therefore if Stator Inductance (05.025) is non-zero Motor Rated Power Factor (05.010) is continuously set to the calculated value of rated power factor by the drive. If Stator Inductance (05.025) is set to zero then Motor Rated Power Factor (05.010) is used to estimate the rated magnetising current which is an approximation and not as accurate. Stator Inductance (05.025) can be measured by the drive during auto-tuning and this is the preferred option, however, if it is not possible to obtain the value for Stator Inductance (05.025) then Motor Rated Power Factor (05.010) should be set to the motor nameplate value.

Dynamic V to F mode is intended for applications where power loss should be kept to a minimum under low load conditions, but dynamic performance is not important. The reduction in power loss under low load conditions is achieved by increasing the rated frequency used to derive the frequency to voltage characteristic of the drive with reduced load. If Flux Optimisation Select, Dynamic V To F Select (05.013) = 0 then Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) is used directly to define the output voltage characteristic. If Flux Optimisation Select, Dynamic V To F Select (05.013) = 1 then a modified value of motor rated frequency is used:
Motor rated frequency = Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) x [2 - |Percentage Load (04.020)| / 70.0%]
For higher load levels Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) is used directly.

The Control Mode (05.014) defines the drive output mode, which can either be a voltage mode or a current mode as given below. It should be noted that the maximum output voltage of the drive is limited to a level just below D.c. Link Voltage (05.005) / √2. Therefore, if the drive is being supplied via its own rectifier input stage the output voltage is limited to a level just below that of the supply voltage. If the drive is operating in voltage mode the output voltage is limited to Motor Rated Voltage (05.009) or the maximum possible output voltage whichever is the lowest (also refer to Over Modulation Enable (05.020)).
0: Ur S (Resistance compensation, stator resistance measured at each start)
Resistance compensation is a form of stator flux oriented sensorless motor control. A linear frequency to voltage characteristic is used where the drive output voltage is increased from 0V to Motor Rated Voltage (05.009). as the |Output Frequency (05.001)| increases from 0Hz to Motor Rated Frequency (05.006). When the |Output Frequency (05.001)| is above Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) the output voltage is limited to Motor Rated Voltage (05.009). Vector based stator resistance compensation is applied below Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) / 4 and then this is tapered off from Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) / 4 to Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) / 2. This method controls the flux level correctly in the motor in the steady state provided the correct value of Stator Resistance (05.017) is used.
The Stator Resistance (05.017) is measured each time the drive is started. This test can only be done with a stationary motor where the flux has decayed to zero. Therefore this mode should only be used if the motor is guaranteed to be stationary each time the drive is enabled. To ensure that the measurement is not carried out before the flux has decayed, there is a period of one second after the inverter has been disabled during which the test is not carried out if the drive is re-started. The Stator Resistance (05.017) is not automatically saved in non-volatile memory after each test.
1: Ur (Resistance compensation with no stator resistance measurement)
Resistance compensation is used as in Ur S mode, but the Stator Resistance (05.017) is not measured.
2: Fixed (Fixed boost with linear characteristic)
A fixed frequency to voltage characteristic is used as shown above where the voltage at 0Hz is defined by Low Frequency Voltage Boost (05.015). The voltage characteristic moves linearly with output frequency passing through three points determined by [Boost End Voltage (05.074) and Boost End Frequency (05.075)], [Second Point Voltage (05.076) and Second Point Frequency (05.077)] and [Motor Rated Voltage (05.009) and Motor Rated Frequency (05.006)].
By default Boost End Frequency (05.075) is set to half the Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) and Second Point Frequency (05.077) is set to three quarters.By default Boost End Voltage (05.074) is set at half the Motor Rated Voltage (05.009) and Second Point Voltage (05.076) is set to three quarters.This is to produce the SK curve by default.
3: Ur Auto (Resistance compensation, stator resistance measured on first start)
Resistance compensation is used as in Ur S mode, but the Stator Resistance (05.017) is only measured once when the drive is first enabled. After the test has been completed successfully the mode is changed to Ur mode and Stator Resistance (05.017) is saved to non-volatile memory. If Parameter Cloning (11.042) is set to 3 or 4 the Stator Resistance (05.017) is also written to a non-volatile media card fitted in the drive. If the test fails the mode is changed to Ur mode, but Stator Resistance (05.017) is not updated.
4: Ur I (Resistance compensation, stator resistance measured at power-up)
Resistance compensation is used as in Ur S mode, but the Stator Resistance (05.017) is only measured when the drive is enabled for the first time after each power-up.
5: Square (Fixed boost with square characteristic)
A fixed square frequency to voltage characteristic is used as shown below. When the |Output Frequency (05.001)| is below Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) the Output Voltage (05.002) is given by:
Output Voltage (05.002) = Low Frequency Voltage Boost (05.015) + [(Motor Rated Voltage (05.009) - Low Frequency Voltage Boost (05.015)) x (Output Frequency (05.001) / Motor Rated Frequency (05.006))2]
6: Fixed boost with tapered slip limit
A fixed boost frequency to voltage characteristic is used with:
· the (Post Ramp Reference (02.001) +Slip) direction clamp removed, and
· the slip limit tapering to zero at zero Post Ramp Reference (02.001) starting from a frequency determined by Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084) (as a 0.1% of the rated frequency.)

Asynchronous machines:
The Stator Resistance (05.017), Transient Inductance (05.024) and Stator Inductance (05.025) are derived from the star connected per phase equivalent circuit of an induction motor shown below.

Maximum Switching Frequency (05.018) should be set to the required PWM switching frequency. The drive inverter will operate at this frequency unless Auto-switching Frequency Change Disable (05.035) = 0 and the inverter temperature exceeds the threshold for automatic switching frequency reduction (see Inverter Temperature (07.034)). The actual switching frequency is shown in Switching Frequency (05.037). The switching frequency has a direct effect on the sample rate for the current controllers (see Current Controller Kp Gain (04.013)). All other control tasks are at a fixed rate of 1ms.
Note: 0.667kHz and 1KHz switching frequencies are not supported in RFC-A mode.
As default Auto-switching Frequency Change Disable (05.035) = 0 and the system described above is always active. If Auto-switching Frequency Change Disable (05.035) = 1 then the automatic switching frequency changing system is disabled. If Auto-switching Frequency Change Disable (05.035) = 2 the system is active, but does not take into account the device temperature at low output frequencies.
We recommend that a minimum ratio of 12:1 for the switching frequency compared to the output frequency is used.Parameter | 05.019 High Stability Space Vector Modulation | ||

The maximum modulation level of the drive is normally limited to unity giving an output voltage equivalent to the drive input voltage minus voltage drops within the drive. If the motor rated voltage is set at the same level as the supply voltage some pulse deletion will occur as the drive output voltage approaches the motor rated voltage level. If Over Modulation Enable (05.020) is set to 1 the modulator will allow over modulation, so that as the output frequency increases beyond the motor rated frequency the voltage continues to increase above the motor rated voltage. The modulation depth will increase beyond unity producing trapezoidal waveforms. This can be used for example to get slightly better performance above motor rated frequency. The disadvantage is that the machine current will be distorted as the modulation depth increases above unity, and will contain a significant amount of low order odd harmonics of the fundamental output frequency.

Minimum Switching Frequency (05.038) defines the minimum frequency limit used if the inverter thermal model is actively reducing the switching frequency due to temperature.
Note that parameter Maximum Switching Frequency (05.018) takes priority over parameter Minimum Switching Frequency (05.038) so is not limited by parameter Minimum Switching Frequency (05.038). The actual minimum switching frequency limit used is the lower of Maximum Switching Frequency (05.018) and Minimum Switching Frequency (05.038).

Spin Start Boost (05.040) is used by the algorithm that detects the frequency of a spinning motor when the drive is enabled and Catch A Spinning Motor (06.009) ≥ 1. For smaller motors the default value of 1.0 is suitable, but for larger motors Spin Start Boost (05.040) may need to be increased. If Spin Start Boost (05.040) is too small the drive will detect zero speed whatever the frequency of the motor, and if Spin Start Boost (05.040) is too large the motor may accelerate away from standstill when the drive is enabled.

Maximum Deadtime Compensation (05.059) is the deadtime compensation used to compensate for dead-time effects in the inverter. This level of compensation is used when the drive output current is above Current At Maximum Deadtime Compensation (05.060) Both of these values related to dead-time compensation are measured during auto-tuning and cannot be set by the user. It should be noted that if the auto-tuning test is not performed and Maximum Deadtime Compensation (05.059) = 0 then dead-time compensation is disabled. Although it is not recommended, it is possible to disable dead-time compensation by setting Disable Deadtime Compensation (05.061) = 1.

Multiple point V to F characteristic.
A fixed frequency to voltage characteristic is used as shown above where the voltage at 0Hz is defined by Low Frequency Voltage Boost (05.015). The voltage characteristic moves linearly with output frequency passing through three points determined by [Boost End Voltage (05.074) and Boost End Frequency (05.075)], [Second Point Voltage (05.076) and Second Point Frequency (05.077)] and [Motor Rated Voltage (05.009) and Motor Rated Frequency (05.006)].
By default Boost End Frequency (05.075) is set to 50.0% of the Motor Rated Frequency (05.006), Second Point Frequency (05.077) is set to 55.0% and Third point frequency (05.079) is set to 75.0%.
By default Boost End Voltage (05.074) is set to 50.0% of the Motor Rated Voltage (05.009), Second Point Voltage (05.076) is set to 55.0% and Third point voltage (05.078) is set to 75.0%.
This is to produce the SK curve by default and the percentage method results in the curve naturally.

Open loop modes only. User set maximum switching frequencies 2kHz to 6kHz only.
When this parameter is one, the modulation scheme is modified to reduce the fundamental switching frequency acoustic noise.
When this mode is enabled, the effect of the switching frequency fundamental in the output voltage is reduced by moving the switching points of the output phases in each PWM switching period by the same randomly weighted offset. This reduces the level of noise from the switching frequency but will introduce noise at lower and higher frequencies at a lower level. The maximum offset reduces as the output voltage increases if the dc bus voltage level remains constant.

Open-loop and RFC modes. User set maximum switching frequencies 2kHz to 6kHz only.
Swaps to 16kHz if the output current magnitude is less than 30% (Frame sizes 1-4) and 20% (Frame sizes 5 and above) drive OI.AC limit for longer than 100ms.
Swaps back immediately if the output current magnitude is greater than 15% drive OI.AC limit.
The original switching frequency may still be under the control of the inverter thermal model. This feature is disabled if the thermal model or user have changed the switching frequency within the last 10 seconds.

When this parameter is one, the DC link voltage will only be measured when the inverter is inactive.
Open loop mode only.
A 128ms filtered version of the Vdc measurement is sampled only when the inverter stack is inactive.
The sampled filtered version of the vdc measurement is limited to between +/-10% of the actual measured vdc while the drive inverter is inactive. This sampled level for the Vdc is used instead of the actual measurement when the demand voltage is converted to a modulation index to be used by the inverter.
This removes the dc bus voltage forward compensation. It will also removed the effects of “oscillation” experienced when the drive is supplied by an extremely soft supply of through a high inductance filter.

Open-Loop mode:
In resistor compensation open loop modes (Control Mode (05.014) set to 0, 1, 3, and 4):
If the rated slip frequency is non-zero, the rated slip frequency (see Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) can be modified when the output frequency is below one third of the motor rate frequency to provide a torque boost.
The modification consists of an addition to the calculated slip frequency controlled by the user parameter Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084).The addition is equal to Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084) at zero Hz falling linearly to 0.0% at one third of the motor rated frequency.
If the rated slip frequency is zero, the amount of stator resistor compensation can be modified when the output frequency is below one tenth of the motor rate frequency to provide a torque boost. The modification consists of an addition to the calculated stator resistor compensation controlled by the user parameter Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084).The addition is equal to Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084). at zero Hz falling linearly to 0.0% at one tenth of the motor rated frequency.
In fixed boost tapered open loop control (Control Mode (05.014) set to 6):
Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084) sets the frequency at which the taper of the slip begins. This is expressed in Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084) as a percentage of the motor rated frequency, Motor Rated Frequency (05.006) . See #5.014 = 6.
RFC-A mode:
If Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084) = 0.0% (default) the RFC-A speed estimator is used when the ramp output is greater than the rated motor frequency divided by 64.
If Low Frequency Estimator Threshold, Low Frequency Slip Boost (05.084) > 0.0% , the RFC-A speed estimator is used when the ramp output is greater than the rated motor frequency divided by 128.

Setting Ur Mode Pre-Flux delay to a value from 0.0s to 0.7s will configure the Ur mode pre-flux delay. The delay begins as the motor starts to run and during the pre-flux delay the torque axis voltage compensation is held at zero. The delay is provides time for the flux to build up to reduce the risk of unstable behaviour during motor starting. The user configurable delay function has been added for use with the brake macro, where the mechanical brake is holding the shaft while the motor is started. The delay can be set depending on the motor and the system.
