Example 2
One External Motor with AutoSwap
(1) Mechanically interlocked contactors are recommended to ensure that the
drive contactor and the line contactor do not close at the same time. If the
drive and line contactor close at the same time, drive damage may result.
•
Auxiliary Motor Control is enabled via Parameter
[Aux Motor Mode].
•
Number of auxiliary motors is set via Parameter
[Aux Motor Qty].
•
Relays are configured for Auxiliary Motor Control via parameters
,
,
, and
•
The frequency of Motor #1 that Motor #2 turns on at is set via Parameter
[Aux 1 Start Freq].
•
The time that Motor #1 is above the value set by
before turning on Motor #2 is set via Parameter
[Aux Start Delay].
•
The frequency of Motor #1 that Motor #2 turns off at is set via Parameter
[Aux 1 Stop Freq].
•
The time that Motor #1 is below the value set by
[Aux 1 Stop Freq]
before turning off Motor #2 is set via Parameter
[Aux Stop Delay].
•
The running time between the PowerFlex 400 switching control from Motor
#1 to Motor #2 is set via
[Aux AutoSwap Time].
•
PID setup is done via Parameters
through
. See Appendix D for
additional information.
•
The maximum PID output level that an AutoSwap can occur is set via
Parameter
[Aux AutoSwap Lvl]. AutoSwap will be delayed until the
PID output drops below this parameter setting.
Important: If using auxiliary motor control, ensure that wiring and parameter
configuration are correct before wiring contactor outputs. All relays
on the Auxiliary Relay Card will energize on power-up by default.
Failure to verify proper wiring and parameter configuration can result
in improper motor operation or drive damage.
