Controlling the Drive

Controlling the 160 Drive from a programmable controller is
accomplished using Message Commands to communicate through
the IB1 Module to the drive. To send a Start or Stop command to the
drive, the corresponding control bits in the DRIVECOM Control
Word must be set.

Setting the Drive to Enable
Network Control

The 160 Drive must be configured to accept logic and speed
commands from the network. This is done by configuring three
parameters:

1.

Set P46 - [Input Mode] to a value of “2” or “6” as described in the
following Table. This will configure the drive to accept the logic
commands from the network.

Important: The drive may be operated in other modes as long as

the InterBus Master provides an Enable command
(control word = 0x6)

2.

Set P59 - [Frequency Select] to “1.” This will configure the drive
to accept speed commands from the network.

3.

Set P66 - [RPM Scaling] according to rated nameplate speed.
(See chapter 5 for details).

Changing the above parameters can be done with the 160 Keypad
Module or configuration software such as DriveExplorer.

Important: For a new Input Mode to take affect, drive power must be

cycled or parameter P56 - [Reset Functions] must be set to
“2” instead.
