Using the Human Interface Module (HIM)

Choosing a HIM Mode

From the Initial Status Display, press any one of the five display panel
keys. “Choose Mode” is displayed. Press the Increment or Decrement
key to scroll through the modes. The navigation diagram for the
available modes in shown Figure B.5 “HIM Menu Tree”. The HIM
modes are displayed in a circular register. Depressing the increment
up key selects the next mode while depressing the decrement down
key selects the previous mode. Once the desired mode is displayed it
is necessary to depress the enter key to select the mode. File, group
and parameter names are limited to 16 characters, one line of the HIM
display. Selections within a parameter are limited to 12 characters.
Because of these limitations the names may be abbreviated.

The following modes are available:

HIM Menu Tree

Figure B.5 provides a graphical representation of the method of
navigating through the modes of operation of the HIM Module.
“Parameter Files, Groups and Elements”, in Appendix C, provides an
overall view of the 7 major files and their associated groups and
elements. Display or modification of any parameter (element) is
accomplished by selecting the display or program mode, selecting a
file, selecting a group within the file and selecting the desired
(element) or parameter. All parameters may be read. If the parameter
is a read/ write parameter it may be modified from its default value.
See “Using Display and Programming modes” in this chapter. The
parameters or elements may be replicated in different groups and files
to simplify the navigation process and enhance functional
organization. The HIM increment, decrement, select and enter keys
are used to navigate through the files, groups and elements.

This mode:

Lets you:

Display

View the value of any parameter. You cannot modify parameters in
this mode.

Program

Access the complete listing of parameters available for
programming.

EEProm

Reset all parameters to the factory default settings or save modified
parameters. In addition, you can upload/download parameters
between the HIM and the drive.(remote HIM only)

Search

Search for parameters that are not at their default values.

Control Status

You can access the fault and warning queues from Control Status. A
clear function clears the queue. It will not clear an active fault. Refer
to Chapter 3, for more information about the fault and warning
queues.

Password

Protect the drive parameters against programming changes by
unauthorized personnel. When a password has been assigned, you
must have the correct password to access the Program/EEProm
modes and the Control Logic/Clear Fault Queue menus. You can
choose any five digit number between 00000 and 65535 for the
password.
