5.5 Quick Start Parameter Descriptions
Brief descriptions of the Quick Start parameters are provided here for your reference.
Full descriptions of the parameters are provided in the software manual. These
descriptions are listed in the order in which they are displayed during the Quick Start
procedure.
!
ATTENTION: The incorrect configuration of Quick Start parameters can
cause an overspeed condition. These parameters must be configured
by a qualified person who understands the significance of configuring
them accurately. Verify that the values of these parameters are
configured accurately for your application. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in bodily injury.
BASE SPEED (P.017)
Specifies the speed
at which the motor
rotates at full
application field
strength and rated
armature voltage. Parameter Range: 5 to 5000 RPM
Default Setting: 500 RPM
Parameter Type: Tunable
OIM Menu Path(s): Drive Reference - Drive Reference Limits
Quick Start
GEAR IN SPEED
(P.011)
Specifies the
geared-in motor
speed that results in
TOP LINE SPEED
(P.020).
Parameter Range: 5 to 5000 RPM
Default Setting: 500 RPM
Parameter Type: Configurable
If a section is a center-driven unwind or winder (variable diameter), GEAR IN SPEED
is the motor speed in RPM that results in TOP LINE SPEED at EMPTY CORE DIAMETER
(P.830.
GEAR IN SPEED depends on several factors:
• If there is no field weakening, the top line speed is typically the same as the motor
nameplate base speed.
• If there is field weakening, the top line speed is the same as the field weakened
speed. Gear in speed is typically more than the base speed when field
weakening is applied.
!
The drive’s overspeed protection is based on GEAR IN SPEED (P.011).
GEAR IN SPEED is typically set at or below the motor’s rated base speed or
field weakened speed. If the application requires GEAR IN SPEED to be set
above motor base speed (fixed field) or above the motor’s nameplate
speed, the drive’s internal motor overspeed fault protection is not valid. In
this case, the user is responsible for providing external overspeed
protection, such as a motor overspeed switch. Failure to observe this
precaution could result in bodily injury.
