2.1.1

Rules for Configuring/Selecting Drives for the UDC Module

1 . Both A and B drives do not have to be used. (You can configure only one.)

2. Your A/B drive type combination is restricted only if you select either an SD3000 (12-Pulse) drive

or an SF3000 drive for either drive A or drive B. For these products, you are restricted to the drive

type combinations shown in the table below. All other drive type combinations are allowed.

If you choose for Drive A. . .

Then your choices for Drive B are. . .

SD3000 (12-Pulse)

SD3000 12-Pulse Auxiliary

No PMI Attached

SF3000

SD3000 (6-Pulse)

SF3000

Entering the Drive Parameters

Drive parameters are application-specific data that describe your installation’s Power Modules,

feedback devices, and motors. This information is loaded to the UDC module, which in turn
automatically downloads it to the PMI when the two are first connected over the fiber-optic link. This

information is also stored off-line with the Programming Executive. Note that the drive parameters will
be retained by the UDC module during a Stop All fault or command in the rack.

Once a UDC module has been added to the rack, use the

Zoom In

command to begin entering the

drive parameters. Refer to the AutoMax Programming Executive instruction manual for more
information on

Zooming

in and out.

Use the following procedure to enter the drive parameters. Section 2.3 describes how to load the
drive parameter files when you are finished. Note that if you enter drive parameter data that is
unexpected or out of range, a “warning” or “error” message will appear on the screen. A warning

message indicates that the data you have just entered will be accepted by the Programming
Executive, and you will be able to generate drive parameter files; however, you may experience

degradation of drive performance. An error message indicates that the data you have just entered is
unacceptable, and you will not be able to generate drive parameter files.

Step 1.

Zoom

into the UDC module. The Power Module Interface (PMI) screen will be displayed.

You can also access this screen directly by double-clicking the UDC module.

This screen shows either one or two PMI diagrams depending upon the information you

previously entered. One diagram will be shown for drive A and one for drive B, if used.

Each PMI diagram will show two rail ports (0 and 1) and the analog or digital rails that are
connected to the PMI. Initially, no rails are connected.

Only one drive can be selected at a time when two drives are shown on the screen:

l

the Drive A option will make drive A the selected drive.

l

the Drive B option will make drive B the selected drive.

Entered commands will only affect the selected drive.

Step 2.

If a rail is to be connected to the PMl’s rail ports, click the appropriate rail port, either 0 or 1.
Select

Add

under the Configure menu to add the rail to the rail ports.

You can choose from the following rail devices:

l

M/N 45C001 Digital I/O Rail

l

M/N 45C630 4-Decade Thumbwheel Switch Input Module

l

M/N 45C631 4-Digit LED Output Module

l

M/N 61 C345 4-Channel Analog Current Input Rail

l

M/N 61 C346 4-Channel Analog Voltage Input Rail

l

M/N 61 C350 2-Channel Analog Voltage Input/Output Rail
