2.7 HOW TO CONFIGURE THE DGF
2.7.1 Which method to use
In order to configure the DGF you must choose the appropriate method. There are
several ways to access the DGF:
1)
through the DRIVE KEYPAD;
2) through the serial line of the DGF, in conjunction with a PC running the HIBS or
WHIB programs;
3) through the serial line of the Drive, in conjunction with a PC running the HIBS or
WHIB programs ;
4) through a fieldbus.
We strongly recommend the use of the HIBS or WHIB programs. This is faster than
the drive keypad and fieldbus, allowing access to all resources of the DGF.
2.7.2 First configuration of DGF
The following guide is intended as an aid to configure the DGF for the first time, when
the DGF has the default parameters, or when you want to change some basic parameters.
When you access parameters of the DGF always remember the “status of access” of
each parameter. Many of the parameters described later are accessible only in IDLE
state. This will require you to transition the DGF to the IDLE state before starting.
2.7.3 Mode configuration
There are 2 modes to operate the DGF:
1)
execute a Win+Drive program;
2) execute only DeviceNet software.
The mode is selected by parameter DGFC_MODE(350). Parameter
WPD_STATUS(351) monitors the status of WPD enable flag.
Note that when you choose “only DeviceNet” the card acts as a fieldbus interface,
losing the ability to be programmed. You can use DeviceNet in a Win+Drive program
by choosing the first mode. See DeviceNet manual for additional information.
2.7.4 Basic transition
Basic transitions are the transitions from/to RUN status and the exit from ALERT
status. These transitions can be configured to be executed from 3 different sources:
1)
from the serial line, fieldbus or drive keypad (by writing parameter WSTATO,
506);
2) through the corresponding transition of the drive;
3) through a digital input of a DGF optional card.
