Speed Command The function of Speed Command block is to select one of the 10
possible speed command inputs. Parameter Speed Ref Select (7) in
conjunction with Local/Remote selector switch is used to define the
speed command input Speed Command In (276). When the selector
switch is in Local position, the default speed command is the Analog
Speed Potentiometer typically mounted on the LV panel. When the
selector switch is in Remote position, the parameter Speed Ref Select
defines the source of speed command. The options available are:
Local ( Speed Potentiometer)
3 DPI commands ( DPIAdapter1, DPIAdapter2, DPIAdapter5)
2 Analog Inputs configured either for 0-10V or 4-20mA (Analog
Inp1, Analog Inp2)
3 Preset speeds (Preset Spd 1, Preset Spd 2, Preset Spd 3)
1 Preset Jog
The above speed commands are used when the drive is in Normal
mode of operation. However PF7000 has many special modes of
operation e.g. test modes or auto-tuning for which different speed
commands are selected. Table 1.A summarizes the speed command
during these special modes.
Speed Command (cont.) Three skip speeds Skip Speed 1(49), Skip Speed 2 (50), Skip Speed 3
(51) are provided to prevent the drive from continuously operating at
a certain speed. This feature is sometimes needed to avoid mechanical
vibrations occurring in a drive system at certain speeds. The skip
speed zone around each Skip Speed is specified by the parameter
Skip Speed Band1 (53), Skip Speed Band2 (54), Skip Speed Band3
(55) If the desired Speed Command lies in a given skip speed zone,
the Speed Command is clamped to the lowest value in the zone.
Example
The final stage in processing the command is the whether the drive
has been requested to run forward or reverse. The sign is changed if
reverse rotation is selected. The Speed Command is set to zero if the
drive is stopped.
Speed Reference The function of the Speed Reference block is to determine the Speed
Reference (278) from the desired Speed Command (277). PF7000
provides two options:
• S-curve
• Linear Ramp
Example
If S curve Accel 1 is set for 20 sec with 20% in S curve Percent, then
the total acceleration time is increased by 0.2 x 20 = 4 seconds. The
total acceleration time will now be 24 seconds with 4 seconds in the
non-linear portion of the S curve. Since the curve is symmetrical,
each of the segments will be of 2 seconds duration.

Speed Control The function of the speed control block is to determine the torque-
producing component (Isq) of the stator current (Is). The inputs to the
block are the Speed Reference (278) from the speed ramp and the
Stator Frequency (448) and Slip Frequency (343) from the motor
model. If drive is installed with an optional tachometer, then the
motor speed is determined by counting the tach pulses.
Flux Control The function of the flux control block (Figure 1.5) is to determine the
magnetizing component (Isd) of the stator current (Is) needed to
maintain the desired flux profile in the motor. The inputs are Flux
Feedback (306) and Stator Freq (448) from the motor model, Speed
Feedback (289) and Torque Reference (291) from the speed control
block and the measured voltage at the input of the rectifier, Rec
Input Volt (696).
The flux profile in the drive is adjusted by the parameters Flx Cmd
No Load (103) and FlxCmd RatedLoad (100). Using these
parameters, Flux Reference is adjusted linearly with the desired
Torque Reference. At light loads motor flux is decreased allowing
reduction in losses while full flux is produced at rated load. The
maximum flux reference is limited to Flux Cmd Limit (623). This
limit is dependent on the Rec Input Volt and the motor speed (Speed
Feedback). If the drive operates at reduced line voltage, then Flux
Reference is reduced. Also if the motor is running above the Base
Speed, the flux profile is made inversely proportional to the speed of
the motor resulting in the field weakening or the constant power
mode of operation of the drive. This is accompanied by a decrease in
the motor torque capability.

Flux Control for Synchronous Most of the magnetization for a synchronous motor is supplied by
Motor the rotor field winding, unlike an induction motor where all of the
magnetizing current is supplied through the stator. However, control
of the motor flux through the field current is very slow because of
the large time constant of the dc field winding and the current and
voltage limitations of the field supply. To obtain sufficiently fast
response from the flux regulator the magnetizing current is split into
transient and steady state components, with the steady state
component supplied through the rotor and the transient component
through the stator.
The additions to the flux control required for synchronous machines
are shown in the block diagram (Figure 1.6). The portion of the
motor filter capacitor current supplied by the drive is then added to
determine Inv Flux CurCmd, which is the magnetizing component of
the dc link current command.
Parameter Icd Command Gain (107) determines how the motor filter
capacitor current is split between the motor and the drive. When this
parameter is set to its minimum value of 0.0, all the capacitor current
is supplied by the drive. The line current is higher than the motor
current and the motor operates at approximately unity power factor.
When this parameter is set to its maximum value of 1.0, the motor
supplies all the capacitor current. The line current is less than the
motor current and the motor operates at a lagging power factor with
reduced field current.

Current Control The function of the current control block (Figure 1.7) is to determine
the firing angles for the converters Alpha Rectifer (327) and Alpha
Inverter (328). The inputs are the torque (InvTorque CurCmd) and
flux producing (Inv Flux CurCmd) components of the dc link current
command from the speed control and flux control blocks respectively,
and the measured dc link current Idc Feedback (322).
The square root of the sum of the squares of Inv Flux CurCmd and
InvTorque CurCmd determines the dc link current reference Idc
Reference (321). This is subtracted from the measured dc current
feedback is subtracted to determine Idc Error (323). This is
processed by the current regulator to produce Vdc Error (332). To
effectively control the dc link current an estimate of the motor side
dc link voltage is done to calculate Vdc Feedfwd (333) which is
added to Vdc Error to produce the reference voltage for the line side
converter Vdc Reference (326). The line converter firing angle is the
inverse cosine of Vdc Reference. The machine converter firing angle
is determined by taking the inverse tangent of the ratio of Inv Flux
CurCmd to the InvTorque CurCmd. The quadrant of operation is
adjusted based on the signs of the current commands.

Line Converter Feedback The function of the line converter feedback block is to process (scale
and filter) the liner side voltage and current feedback signals to the
form required by the drive control software. The circuitry for
realizing this is built in the Analog Control Board (ACB).
The first Voltage Sensing Board (VSB) provides three line voltage
feedback signals (V2u, V2v, V2w), the second VSB provides two dc
(VL+, VL-) and one line side filter capacitor voltages referenced to
ground. The three line-to-ground voltages are subtracted from each
other to produce the three line-to-line voltages (V2uv, V2vw, V2wu). Two
of those line voltages (V2uv, V2vw) are filtered and sampled by
software for synchronization and protection. The three line voltages
are used to find the peak input voltage (V2-pk). This value is then
compared with trip setting (Vltrp) for instantaneous hardware ac over
voltage protection. In PWM drives, the neutral point of the line filter
capacitor is measured (Vn1) and used for line side neutral over
voltage protection. The two dc voltages are subtracted to determine
the line side dc link voltage (Vdcr1), which is then sampled by the
drive.
Machine Converter Feedback The function of the machine converter feedback block is to process
(scale and filter) the motor side voltage and current feedback signals
to the form required by the drive control software. The circuitry for
realizing this is built in the Analog Control Board (ACB).
The first VSB provides three motor voltage feedback signals (Vu, Vv,
Vw), the second VSB provides two dc (VM+, VM-) and one machine
side filter capacitor neutral voltage referenced to ground. The motor
line-to-ground voltages are subtracted from each other to produce the
three motor line-to-line voltages (Vuv, Vvw, Vwu). Two of those
voltages (Vuv, Vvw ) are filtered and sampled by software for
synchronization and protection. The three line voltages are used to
find peak voltage (V_pk). This value is then compared with trip setting
(Vmtrp) for instantaneous hardware ac over voltage protection. The
motor line-to-ground voltages are summed to determine the motor
neutral-to-ground voltage (Vzs) and is used for motor neutral over
voltage protection. In addition, the neutral point of the motor filter
capacitor is measured (Vn) and used for motor side neutral over
voltage protection. The two dc voltages are subtracted to determine
the machine side dc link voltage (Vdci1), which is sampled by the
drive.
Motor Model The function of the motor model block (Figure 1.8) is to determine
the rotor flux position (Flux Angle), flux feedback (Flux Feedback),
applied stator frequency (Stator Freq), slip frequency (Slip
Frequency) and motor operating variables like stator current (Stator
Current), stator voltage (Stator Voltage), torque (MtrAirGap
Torque), power (MotorAirGap Power) and power factor (Mtr Pwr
Factor).

Drive/Motor Protection Except for the dc link overcurrent, rectifier over voltage and inverter
over voltage, the entire drive protection is realized in the software.
Adjustable parameters specifying the trip level and time delay are
provided for each fault. A detailed list of all the faults and warnings
(alarms) is provided in Chapter 3 – Troubleshooting.
Drive/Motor Protection For Class 1 faults (with the exception of dc link overcurrent,
(cont.) rectifier overvoltage and inverter overvoltage), the line converter is
immediately phased back to retard limit until the dc link current
drops to zero. The gating for both converters is disabled and the
contactors (if installed) are opened. At this point the motor will coast
and its speed will depend on the characteristics of the load. For some
high inertia loads, the motor may coast for a long time.
For Class 2 faults the motor is brought to a normal stop before the
gating is disabled and the contactors opened. Typical examples of
Class 2 faults are motor overload, drive overload and loss of load.
For most Warnings no action is taken and drive maintains its normal
operation. A warning could be an indication of a problem in drive
e.g. an Air Filter warning is an indication of a blocked air filter. In
addition there are a few warnings in the drive that may cause
momentary interruption in the operation of the drive e.g. Master UV,
Line Loss or Bus Transient. The action taken is similar to a Class1
fault and the normal operation is resumed once the transient
condition has disappeared. If a drive experiences Master UV or Line
Loss, then Auto Restart Dly (3) should be set to a non-zero value in
order to resume normal operation automatically.
Power Semiconductor The PowerFlex 7000 drive tests for the failure of the power
Diagnostics semiconductors (SCRs or SGCTs) before running and while running.
The method used to detect failed devices is different for starting
(offline diagnostics) and for running (on-line diagnostics), but the
same hardware is used in both situations. The drive control receives
a feedback signal via a fiber-optic cable from each device gate
driver, which can indicate whether or not it is healthy. SCR
diagnostics are based on sensing the voltage across the device while
SGCT has smart diagnostics built in the gate driver board. The
feedback and the gating have a certain relationship when the device
is healthy or failed. This is shown in Figure 1.10 and will be
described in detail in following sections. The description applies to
all 6P, 18P and PWM PowerFlex 7000 drives. In the drive, the test
points are available on the OIBB for monitoring the gating and
diagnostic signals. In order to understand how the diagnostics work,
it is important to understand the relationship between fiber optic
signals and the logic levels on the test points. This is summarized in
Table 1.B and Table 1.C.

Shortly after the drive fires an SCR it checks the feedback from the
gate driver boards. If the feedback shows that the device did not fire
the drive considers that the device may be open-circuited and starts a
timer. If the fault persists for 6 cycles, the drive generates an
OnlineOpen fault. As with the short circuit fault, each device has its
own timer, however the delay is not adjustable.
Test Modes The PowerFlex 7000 AC drive is provided with test modes to check
the functionality of the drive during commissioning. These test
modes are selected using the parameter Operating Mode in the
Feature Select group. When Test Mode is set to the default value of
Normal, the drive is in the normal operating mode. The parameter
cannot be changed while the drive is running.
Setting Inv Gating Test to Test Pattern will fire the inverter devices
in a sequential Z pattern at a low frequency (1Hz) and is verified by
observing the LEDs on the SGCT gate driver board. Setting Inv
Gating Test to Normal Gate will result in the inverter devices firing
as in normal mode of operation. The frequency of the gating is
controlled by parameter Speed Command In (276). Setting Inv
Gating Test to Off stops the inverter test gating sequence.
To test the line converter and to tune the dc link current regulator and
the line commutating impedance, the drive Operating Mode is
selected as DC Current. In this test mode, the line converter
operates normally, but the machine converter gating is modified to
gate both the positive and negative legs in the same phase in order to
short-circuit the dc link current through the machine converter. The
short circuit current is slowly rotated among the three phases with
overlap between phases to ensure that an open circuit does not occur
during commutation. There is no current in the motor and the output
contactor (if installed in the drive) is opened. The dc current
command is set equal to the value specified by parameter Idc Test
Command (119) in the Current Control group. In this test mode the
line converter firing angle Alpha Rectifier (327) will be close to 90
degrees. This is because it takes very small dc voltage to build
current in a shorted dc link.
Setting Operating Mode to System Test selects the system test mode.
This mode is used to test the drive as a system, including interfaces
with external devices such as programmable controllers, without
applying power to the drive or motor. The drive behaves as if it was
running normally but device gating disabled. Since the input, output,
and bypass contactors operate normally in this mode, it must be
ensured that the drive and motor are isolated from medium voltage.
If the drive detects medium voltage in this test mode, a fault MV in
SystemTest is issued and the input contactor is opened.
Setting Operating Mode to Open Circuit, selects the open circuit test
mode. This mode is used to test the drives at rated output voltage
and frequency without connecting it to a motor. In open circuit test
mode, ac current sufficient to produce rated voltage at the drive
output is forced through the output filter capacitors. When the drive
is started in this mode, it ramps up to rated frequency and
synchronizes its output voltage with the line voltage. The current
reference is set to a value that will produce voltage at the drive
output set by the parameter FlxCmd RatedLoad (100).
Flying Start (Induction Motor) Using this feature, the PowerFlex 7000 AC drive is capable of
restarting a motor that is not stationary but is already rotating. In
normal operation, the output of the drive is synchronized with the
motor flux which is derived from the stator voltage and current
feedback. Upon starting, if there is no detectable stator voltage, the
drive assumes that the motor is stationary. The output frequency
starts from an initial value of zero and ramps up until motor flux is
detected. Significant flux is created in the motor only when the slip
frequency (i.e. the difference between the applied stator frequency
and rotor frequency) is small. When the drive is started with the
motor stationary, the initial slip frequency is small and the motor
flux builds up fairly quickly. But, if the motor is already spinning,
then very little flux will be induced until the stator frequency is quite
close to the rotor frequency, at which time the motor flux will
suddenly rise to a level sufficient for the drive to detect and
synchronize. If the drive reaches the maximum allowable speed
command without detecting any motor flux, then it will trip on a
motor stall fault. There are following possible causes of a motor stall
when starting:
1. The motor has pulled out and stalled during starting due to
insufficient torque. The remedy for this is to increase the value
of some or all of the parameters TrqCmd0 Sensrlss, TrqCmd1
Sensrlss and Accel Time 1.
2. The motor was already rotating but the flying start failed because
the drive passed through the low slip region too quickly to allow
the motor flux to build up. The solution to this problem is to
increase the value of parameter Accel Time 1. Most medium
voltage motors have a rotor time constant in the range of 1 to 5
seconds, and it can take a few seconds for the flux to rise to a
detectable level. Until flux is detected, the drive does not use the
normal speed ramp but continues to accelerate at the rate defined
by parameters Accel Time 1 and Ramp speed 1. If this rate exceeds
2Hz/sec, then the drive limits it internally to a maximum of 2Hz/sec.
Flying Start (Synch Motor) With a synchronous motor, flying start is much quicker and more
reliable because a detectable stator voltage is produced whenever the
field is applied and the motor is rotating, even with zero stator current.
When the drive is started, rated field current is applied to the motor
but the stator current remains at zero until the end of the ramp start
delay to allow the rotor flux to build up. If the stator frequency is
greater than about 2 Hz, sufficient stator voltage is generated to
allow the drive to detect the speed and direction of the motor and
synchronize itself to the motor flux. If the flux feedback does not
reach a minimum level of 0.2pu, the drive assumes that the motor is
stationary and starts from zero frequency.
The voltage model is not usable for stator frequencies less than 3 Hz.
To control flux and torque at low speeds, the PowerFlex 7000 drive
switches to current model based on indirect vector control. With
indirect control, the position of the rotor flux is not directly measured
but is indirectly predicted by adding the calculated slip angle to the
measured rotor angle. The rotor angle is obtained by integrating the
output of the pulse tach (the zero position is arbitrary). The slip
frequency required to provide the desired flux and torque is calculated
by the motor model. The slip frequency is integrated to get the slip
angle and added to the measured rotor angle to obtain the flux angle.
Because of its salient pole construction, the position of the rotor flux
in a synchronous machine is not arbitrary but is determined by the
physical position of the rotor. A synchronous machine therefore
requires an absolute position encoder instead of an incremental
encoder for indirect vector control. The encoder must also be aligned
with the direct axis of the rotor. To avoid having to physically align
the encoder, an offset angle specified by parameter Encoder Offset
(644) is added to the encoder output to compensate for the difference
between the encoder zero and the direct axis of the rotor. To reverse
the encoder rotation in software if it does not match the rotation of
the motor, bit Rvs Encoder in Special Features (#99) should be set to
1. There is no parameter to specify the encoder resolution; it is
inferred from the number of motor poles.

Synchronous Transfer 3. When the phase error between the motor voltage and bypass
(cont.) voltage has remained less than the value specified by parameter
Sync Error Max (228) for the time interval specified by
parameter Sync Time (229) the drive activates BP CONTACTOR
output on the ACB.
4. After a time delay specified by Sync Off Delay (227) the drive
shuts off. It is important that this parameter is set to the correct
value. This should be at least 1-2 cycles less than the contactor
closing time. If this time delay is set too short, the motor voltage
could drift out of phase with the bypass voltage. If the time delay
is set too long, a drive overcurrent fault may occur because the
drive is unable to control its output voltage and frequency once
the bypass contactor has closed.
PID Process Control The PID process control feature is now integrated into the PowerFlex
7000 drive. The PID controller provides a single closed loop process
control with proportional, integral and derivative control action. This
feature is designed to eliminate the need for external control devices
in applications that require control of a process.
The drive reads the Process Variable (357) from the analog input
that is fed by the customer process sensor and compares it to the
desired Process Setpoint (360). The analog I/O is either in the
voltage range of 0 -10V or in the current range of 4 – 20 mA. The
algorithm will then adjust the PID Output (356), changing the drive’s
speed command frequency to make the Process Variable equal to the
Process Setpoint. The internal PID process controller uses the
velocity form algorithm of the PID equation. This signifies that the
loop works on the change in error to adjust the output whereas a
traditional positional form algorithm works on the error directly.
PID Process Control The derivative term will act on the Process Variable instead of the
(cont.) error by setting the DerivProcess bit in the PID Output to 1. In this
case, the derivative term in the above equation is replaced as below:
The PID controller PID Output can be selected manually from the
PID Manual Input (348) when the Manual bit in the PID Output is
set to 1. When the Manual bit is set and the PID Manual input is still
at the default value of 0, the PID Output will be latched to the last
value from the PID controller and waits for the valid value to be
entered.

Power Factor Compensation This feature is available in drives with PWM rectifier to compensate
leading power factor at low motor speeds with a fan/pump type load.
Leading or lagging power factor at high motor speeds (or even above
base speed) can also be compensated or improved. The control of
power factor is realized by either controlling the modulation index of
the inverter using Space Vector Modulation (SVM) gating technique
or by adjusting the motor flux profile.
Contact factory for the availability of this feature.
Analog Inputs A total of 3 analog inputs are provided in the drive for customer use.
Typically these inputs are used for speed command and can be
configured to be either 4-20mA or 0-10V inputs. Analog Input 1 and
Analog Input 2 are used for directly controlling the speed of the
motor (Refer to section on Speed Command) while Analog Input 3 is
used for sensing the process output for the built in PID controller.

DATABASE REVISION # 7.xxx
This document provides detailed description of the parameters used in drive control. The parameters are
arranged into functional groups. Each description begins with the full name of the parameter, followed by
the name displayed on the operator interface. The linear number of the parameter is given followed by
the minimum and maximum values showing the position of the decimal point and the units if applicable.
Next is the generic value that is assigned when a parameter initialization is performed. The access level
at which the parameter can be first seen is given. The access levels are Monitor, Basic, Advanced,
Service and Rockwell. At the Monitor access level, no change to the parameters are allowed. If the
parameter is first seen at a certain level (with the exception of Monitor) and it is a Read/Write type, it can
be modified at the same or a higher level. Read Only parameters are operational variables that change
with different operating conditions. Finally, there is a short functional description of the parameter.
Most bit-encoded parameters follow a basic format. A one (1) in an associated bit represents a true or
active condition. A zero (0) in an associated bit represents a false or inactive condition.
The description in the manual will always be structured in the same way. The top description (in this
case, Redn ConvFan) is always the least-significant bit, or right-most bit. As you move down the list of
descriptions, you move to the left on the bit-encoded word. Any unused bits in the middle of a word will
be identified, but unused bits in the middle of a word will have no description. This is why a 16-bit word
may only have a few descriptions. The rest are reserved for future expansion.
When a bit-encoded parameter is viewed in its associated group, it is actually displayed as a hexadecimal
number. The right-most four bits represent the right-most hexadecimal digit. Each subsequent group of
4 represents the next hex digit.
When you display a specific bit-encoded parameter, or choose to modify a bit-encoded parameter, it will
be displayed in fit format, with an individual description of each bit. When modifying a parameter,
highlighting the bit with the cursor keys will automatically pop up the description on screen.

This parameter is the estimated value of the input line voltage in per unit. This is calculated from the
measured rectifier input voltage Rect Input Volt (696) and adding the voltage drop in the input impedance
due to the measured line current Line Current pu (122). The Input Impedance (140) is determined by
auto-tuning. For 18-pulse drives, the line voltage is the summation of the estimated voltage from each of
the three bridge voltages.
This parameter displays the voltage across the motor terminals in per unit. For non-ESP applications, the
motor voltage will be equal to the inverter output voltage. However for ESP applications the motor voltage
is estimated from the measured output voltage Inv Output Volt (761) and compensating for the cable
resistance drop using measured motor current Motor Current pu (555).
This parameter displays the measured value of line current in per-unit. It is measured using Current
Transformers (CT’s) installed in two phases. The drive internally reconstructs the line current in the third
phase by assuming that the sum of the line currents in a three phase system is zero. The line current is
the sum of the current flowing into the rectifier bridge and the current flowing into the line filter capacitor.
Refer the following table for typical values of neutral voltages in the drive.
This parameter specifies the measured slave1 bridge input current in per unit for 18-pulse drives.

This parameter specifies the logic command used by the drive control. Refer to Appendix A for detailed
implementation. The following commands are displayed, with a one representing an active command:
Drive compares the measured dc current feedback with the estimated dc current feedback from the line
current (capacitor compensation done on PWMR) and creates the fault Current Sensor if there is a large
difference (HECS/CTError bit in fault code). This protects the drive when starting (in test modes) with the
DC HECS unplugged, or backwards.
The phase sequence of the CT feedback (forward/reverse) is compared with the phase sequence of the
voltage feedback and a Current Sensor fault is generated if they are different (CT Phase Seq bit in fault
code).
When dc current is flowing, the drive compares the firing angle with the angle of the estimated rectifier
current and generates a Current Sensor fault if there is a large difference (CT Phs/Alpha bit in fault code).
On PWMR drives, when not gating (in short circuit and open-loop test modes) the drive compares the
measured capacitor current and expected capacitor current and generates a Current Sensor fault if there
is a large difference (Cap/CT Error bit in fault code).
In open-loop test mode, the drive compares the motor current feedback to the dc current feedback and
generates a Current Sensor fault if there is a large difference (Motor HECS bit in fault code).

This parameter specifies the magnitude of the step that is added to the speed command to demonstrate
the response of the speed ramp. If this parameter is set to a non-zero value, the drive will continuously
ramp up and down between a maximum speed equal to the speed command plus the value of this
parameter, and a minimum value equal to the speed command minus the value of this parameter. The
ramp test function is intended for use in factory test only. This parameter is not saved and is initialized to
zero at power up.
This parameter is the dc current error obtained by subtracting the dc current feedback from the dc current
reference.
This parameter is the dc voltage reference, which is the output of the current regulator after the advance
limit and retard limit have been applied. A value of 1.000 corresponds to maximum positive voltage
(motoring) and a value of –1.000 corresponds to maximum negative voltage (regenerating) regardless of
the direction of motor rotation.
This parameter specifies the rectifier firing angle relative to the input line voltage. It is equal to the inverse
cosine of the dc voltage reference, Vdc Reference (326). It is in the range 0 to 90 degrees for motoring
and 90 to 180 degrees for regenerating.
This is the maximum allowable dc current reference the rectifier will use based on the DC Over current
trip and dc-current ripple.
This parameter displays maximum DC current reference allowed during DC test mode.
This parameter specifies the small signal bandwidth of the current control loop. It is used in the
calculation of the current regulator gain. This parameter affects only the response time of the current

small overshoot. This parameter can be set manually or by auto-tuning.
This parameter specifies the input impedance between the drive and the source, including the isolating
transformer if present, expressed in the per unit system of the drive. It is used in the calculation of the
retard limit for the line converter, and reconstruction of the line voltage parameters. This parameter can
be set manually or by auto-tuning.
This parameter specifies the corner frequency of the filter used in calculating the inverter side dc link
voltage from the measured stator voltage. This value is used a feed-forward term in the current regulator
to determine the firing angle for the line side converter. This parameter is useful in load-sharing conveyor
applications, where it can be used to effectively dampen system mechanical resonance.
This parameter refers to the allowable leading vars to be drawn by the drive and not have the drive
compensate for the power factor. The default value on power up is set to 0.02pu. This means that the
drive will compensate for the power factor only when the measured Line Vars are bigger than 0.02pu.
This parameter refers to the allowable lagging vars to be drawn by the drive and not have the drive
compensate for the power factor. The default value on power up is set to 0.05pu. This means that the
drive will compensate for the power factor only when the measured Line Vars are less than -0.05pu.
This parameter specifies the value of the drive torque command obtained from the speed regulator.
This parameter specifies the torque limit which the drive will use in limiting its torque output. The
parameter could have a value different than the specified Trq Lmt Motoring (84) or Trq Lmt Braking (85).
It is because the drive adjusts the torque limit based on either field weakening, overload or input voltage
sag conditions.
This parameter specifies the value of the torque command at zero speed used in starting mode. It may be
higher or lower than TrqCmd1 Snsrless (87). If this parameter is set too low the motor may not start. If it
is set too high the start will be excessively rough and noisy. A value of 1.00 corresponds to rated motor
torque. This parameter has no effect if the optional tachometer or encoder feedback is enabled.
This parameter specifies the value of the torque command at the speed when the drive switches to close-
loop after an open loop start. It may be higher or lower than TrqCmd0 Snsrless. In starting mode, the
torque command changes linearly from TrqCmd0 Snsrless at zero speed to TrqCmd1 Snsrless at close-
loop speed. When the drive switches from starting mode to normal running mode and the speed regulator
is released, the torque command is initially equal to the value of this parameter. If it is set too low, the
motor may stall before the speed regulator has time to increase the torque command. If it is set too high,
the motor will accelerate very rapidly after the transition until the speed regulator is able to decrease the
torque command to the value required to follow the speed ramp. A value of 1.00 corresponds to rated
motor torque. This parameter has no effect if the optional tachometer or encoder feedback is enabled.
This parameter specifies the external torque command. The function of this parameter depends on the
parameter Torque Control Mode. A value of 1.00 corresponds to rated motor torque. Note that motoring
torque is positive for forward rotation and negative for reverse rotation.
This parameter specifies the different torque control modes in the drive. Depending on the parameter
selection, the drive determines different torque command values. This parameter is used in conjunction
with an external torque command Trq Cmd External (91). This parameter is used for determining drive’s
torque output or torque limits. Typically the external torque command is linked to a PLC output. The
parameter is defined as:
Internal
Enum Text Description
Value
0 Zero Torque The drive issues zero torque command.
1 Speed Reg The drive uses the speed regulator to determine the torque
command.
2 Ext Torq Cmd The drive uses the external torque command and bypasses the
speed regulator. This mode is also referred to as “Slave” or “Torque
follower” mode.
3 Spd Trq Pos The drive uses the speed regulator with an external motoring torque
limit.
4 Spd Trq Neg The drive uses the speed regulator with an external braking torque limit.
5 Spd Sum The torque command is sum of speed regulator and the external
torque command.
This parameter specifies the maximum value of the torque command when motoring. A value of 1.00
corresponds to rated motor torque.
This parameter specifies the maximum value of the torque command when braking or regenerating. A
value of 1.00 corresponds to rated motor torque.
This parameter is used to prevent the drive from tripping on an overload fault. For a drive programmed
with a Torque Limit Motoring greater than 1.00 (it may be needed for starting or other certain intermittent
load conditions), when the drive reaches 90% of its maximum thermal capability, it will automatically limit
the torque to the value specified in the parameter Trq Lmt Overload. This may prevent the drive from
tripping on overload and will keep the process running. Please note that this will result in the motor
slowing down. This parameter should be set to 1.00 pu, and setting it to a value equal to or greater than
Torque Limit Motoring would lead to a drive trip on overload.
This parameter specifies the maximum motor power when motoring. The torque command will be
reduced as required to keep the motor power from exceeding this limit. A value of 1.00 corresponds to
rated motor power.
This parameter specifies the maximum motor power when braking or regenerating. The torque command
will be reduced as required to keep the motor power from exceeding this limit. A value of 1.00
corresponds to rated motor power.
This parameter specifies the initial torque when starting with a tachometer. The default value allows the
drive to start providing zero torque and ramp up to the required torque determined by the speed control
loop. By setting this to a value above 0.00 provides more torque until the control loops can take over.
This parameter specifies the rotor flux reference, which varies between a minimum value set by
parameter FlxCmd No Load (103) and a maximum value set by parameter FlxCmd RatedLoad (100).
The flux reference varies directly with torque at all speeds, and decreases with speed above Base Speed.
The flux reference is also automatically reduced if the current regulator approaches advance limit or
retard limit, which can occur when running at high speed and high torque with low line voltage.
This parameter displays the value of flux feedback which can come from either FlxFbk VoltModel (342) or
FlxFbk CurModel (341) or a combination of both. For Sensorless drives running below 3 Hz, flux from the
Current Model is used to calculate Flux Feedback and above 3Hz flux from the Voltage Model is used.
For drives with Pulse Tach, below 7.5 Hz flux from the Current Model is used while above 7.5Hz flux from
the Voltage Model is used to calculate Flux Feedback. Refer to section on Motor Model in Chapter 1.
This parameter specifies the flux error obtained by subtracting the flux feedback from the flux reference.
This parameter specifies the magnetizing or D-axis stator current command, which is the sum of a
feedforward term FluxCur Feedfwd (308) and the current from the flux regulator FluxCurRegulator (309).
This parameter specifies the feed-forward component of the magnetizing or D-axis stator current
command. It is an estimate of the steady state D-axis current and is always positive. This value should
represent the baseline magnetizing current of the motor, determined from the Magnetizing Inductance of
the motor.
This parameter specifies the closed loop correction component of the magnetizing or D-axis stator
current command. It is the output of the flux regulator and may be positive or negative. This is the
correction to the magnetizing current based on the operating conditions of the motor.
This parameter specifies the magnetizing current command for the inverter obtained from Mtr Flux
CurCmd (310) and a motor filter capacitor model. It is positive for lagging current and negative for
leading current.
This parameter specifies the inverter firing angle relative to the measured motor flux. It is calculated from
the torque component of the inverter output current InvTorque CurCmd (294) and the flux component of
the inverter output current Inv Flux CurCmd (312).
This parameter specifies the current command for the synchronous motor field supply. For synchronous
drives, this parameter must be assigned to one of the ACB analog outputs. An analog output of 10.0 V
corresponds to maximum field current, which should be somewhat higher than rated field current. The
scaling of the field current command can be adjusted to match the scaling of the field supply current
reference input using the associated analog output scaling parameter. For induction motors this
parameter is always equal to zero.
This parameter specifies the maximum value of flux reference which the drive can use. It is a constantly
changing value based on the operating speed of the motor and the input bridge voltage. For most
applications in normal speed range, this value should be greater than FluxCmd Rated Load (100). This
parameter is used to prevent the current regulator from hitting advance limits.
This parameter displays the flux command from the PFC controller needed to optimize the drive input
power factor. The final flux command will be sum of the original flux profile without power factor
compensation and the flux command from the PFC controller. The parameter can have a negative value.
This parameter specifies the small signal bandwidth of the flux control loop. It is used in the calculation of
the flux regulator gain. The maximum bandwidth possible for stable flux control tends to decrease as
motor size increases.
This parameter specifies the value of the flux command at rated load. The flux command will never be
greater than this parameter, which can be set manually or by auto-tuning.
This parameter specifies the value of the flux command at no load. The flux command will change
linearly from FlxCmd No Load (103) to FlxCmd Rated Load (100) as Torque Reference (291) changes
from 0.00 to 1.00. Reducing the motor flux improves efficiency when running for extended periods at less
than full load. The maximum torque capability of the drive is reduced in proportion to the reduction in flux.
If the load increases suddenly when the drive is running with reduced flux, there may be a large drop in
speed until the flux can be restored to its normal level. If FlxCmd No Load is set higher than FlxCmd
Rated Load, the flux command will not vary with load.
This parameter specifies the time interval during which the motor is being magnetized. The purpose of
the delay is to allow flux to be established in the motor before attempting to accelerate. If the torque
required at starting is very low, then this parameter can be set to a small value such as 1 second, but
should be set to a higher value if high starting torque is required. This parameter is active even when tach
feedback is enabled.
This parameter specifies the gain of the capacitor current compensation for synchronous motors. When
this parameter is set to its minimum value of 0.0, all the current for the motor filter capacitor is supplied by
the drive. The line current is higher than the motor current and the motor operates at approximately unity
power factor. When this parameter is set to its maximum value of 1.0, the motor supplies all the current
for the motor filter capacitor. The line current is less than the motor current and the motor operates at a
lagging power factor with reduced field current. When this parameter is set to its default value of 0.5,
approximately half the motor filter capacitor current is supplied by the drive and half by the motor. The
line current and the motor current are approximately equal and the motor power factor is slightly lagging.
This parameter is not used for induction motors.
This parameter specifies the bandwidth of the field current command for synchronous motors. It should
be set to a value that is less than the bandwidth of both the flux regulator and the field current control.
This parameter specifies the frequency at which field weakening begins. Base Speed is normally set
equal to the rated frequency of the motor. It can be set to a lower value only if the motor is specially
designed to operate at a higher than normal flux level without saturating.
This parameter specifies the magnitude of the step that is added to the flux reference to demonstrate the
step response of the flux loop. It is not saved and is initialized to zero at power-up. This parameter is
also used during manual drive tuning.

This parameter enables and sets the Bus Transient Feature in the PF7000 drive. A value of 2.5 is the
tested and default value to enable and detect bus transients for most sites. The value can be increased
to 2.75 if there are nuisance warnings. Set this parameter to the maximum value to turn off this feature.
This value defines the delay in the bus transient algorithm. This parameter’s units are a function of the
sampling rate of 4kHz, or 250 usec per unit. Normally is not changed from the default value of 2.
This parameter defines the minimum value for the Bus Transient feature to be enabled, and should not be
changed from the default value of .25pu.
This parameter defines the bus transient DC Current factor in the transient protection algorithm. This
should normally not be changed from the default value of 0.5.
This is the minimum amount of time the drive will freewheel before the control starts to look for the end of
the transients. This has been set to 1 cycle at 60 Hz (16ms) which should be sufficient for most
transients related to capacitive switching to dampen.
This parameter specifies the maximum deviation in the instantaneous input frequency from the average
frequency, which can be considered as a line loss condition. For determining a line loss condition, the
drive looks for a sudden change in the measured line frequency in conjunction with loss of voltage
magnitude. When the difference between the Line Frequency (657) and the Master Line Freq (334) is
greater than this parameter, the drive detects a Line Loss and shuts down.
This parameter is added to help avoid nuisance tripping on Rectifier Device diagnostic faults. The delay
allows the drive to ignore a detected fault for the number of line cycles (SCR rectifiers) or the number of
consecutive bridge firings (PWM rectifiers) set by this parameter. The default setting for this parameter is
2, and should not be changed unless directed to increase it by the factory.

Parameter Descriptions 2-121
This parameter specifies the time the motor neutral to ground voltage must remain above the trip level
before a motor neutral over voltage fault is indicated.
This parameter specifies the level the motor speed must exceed before a motor over speed fault is
indicated.
This parameter specifies the time interval for which the motor speed must exceed the trip level before a
motor over speed fault is indicated.
This parameter specifies the maximum motor current which will cause the drive to trip on a motor
overload fault after a time interval specified by parameter Mtr OvrLoad Dly (180).
This parameter specifies the time the motor will operate at the overload trip level Mtr OvrLoad Trp (179)
before a motor overload fault is indicated.
This parameter specifies the minimum per unit value of the motor current which is regarded as an
overload condition. When the motor runs with a current less than the parameter setting, the overload
algorithm is not activated.
This parameter specifies when the drive will issue a Motor overload warning.
This parameter specifies the overload duty cycle for the motor. It is defined as the time interval after
which the motor could be subjected to its maximum overload capacity without exceeding the thermal
ratings. The default value is 10 minutes which means that the motor can handle 1 minute of overload
every 10 minutes. However for Banbury mixers and other heavy duty applications, the overload cycle
could be less than 10 minutes.
This parameter specifies the time the motor must be in a stall condition before a motor stall fault is
indicated. If the tachometer option is enabled, the motor is considered to be stalled if the drive is in torque
limit at any speed less than 1 Hz. If the tachometer option is not enabled, the motor is considered to be
stalled if the drive is at commanded speed and the motor flux is 20% of the rated flux. A stall cannot be
detected until the drive reaches the commanded speed because the motor may already be rotating when
the drive is started. In this case, if the motor speed is above the commanded speed, or the motor is
rotating in opposite direction, a stall fault will occur.
This parameter specifies the level of the unbalance in the motor flux that will cause a motor unbalance
fault.
This parameter specifies the time the motor flux unbalance value must remain above trip level before a
flux unbalance fault is indicated.
This parameter specifies the level of motor current unbalance that will cause the drive to trip.
This parameter specifies the time the motor current unbalance value must remain above trip level before
a current unbalance fault is indicated.
This parameter specifies the minimum percent of rated load at which the drive will assume that there is a
loss of load. If the load drops lower than this parameter, and the speed is greater than Mtr LoadLoss Spd
(259), the drive will initiate the fault after the Mtr LoadLoss Dly (231) expires. The control uses the
parameter Torque Reference (P291) as the load reference.
This parameter specifies the minimum speed at which the loss of load condition will be detected.
Generally there is lesser load at lower speeds, so this parameter helps avoid nuisance trips during
operation at lower speeds.
This parameter specifies the time delay between the detection of the load loss condition and the actual
fault initiation.
This parameter is used to specify the time interval during which the flux regulator is in limit, before the
drive trips on a field loss. Field Current is not directly measured in the control, so we look at the flux
regulator, which will go into limit on loss of field current.
This parameter specifies the level that the tachometer error must exceed before a tachometer loss fault is
indicated.
This parameter specifies the time that the tachometer error must be greater than the trip level before a
tachometer loss fault is indicated.
This parameter is the synchronizing regulator output, which is added to the speed regulator error during a
synchronous transfer from drive to bypass.
This parameter is the synchronizing regulator error, which is the phase angle between the measured
bypass voltage and the motor voltage during a synchronous transfer from drive to bypass.
This parameter specifies the voltage on the line-side of the Bypass Contactor, and is scaled in per unit
with respect to the Rated Motor Voltage.
This parameter specifies the frequency of the voltage on the line-side of the Bypass Contactor.
This parameter specifies the maximum allowable synchronizing phase error. The bypass contactor will
be requested to close when the synchronizing phase error has remained below this maximum value for
the time specified by Sync Time (229).
This parameter specifies the angle by which the motor voltage leads the drive input voltage when the
motor is assumed to be synchronized. The purpose of this parameter is to compensate for any phase
difference between the drive input voltage and the bypass contactor supply voltage.
This parameter specifies the time delay between the bypass contactor being requested to close and the
drive shutting off. It is normally set to slightly less than the bypass contactor closing time, with a minimum
of 1½ – 2 cycles desirable.
This parameter specifies the time that the synchronizing phase error must be less than Sync Error Max
(228) before the bypass contactor is requested to close.
This parameter specifies the time allowed for completion of a synchronous transfer. If transfer is not
complete within this time, the drive will stop with a SyncXfer Failure fault. If the SyncXfer Failure fault is
disabled, the transfer request will be cancelled and the drive will continue to run at the commanded
speed. A SyncXfer Failure warning will be displayed.
This parameter in Sync Xfer Option group is used to control the motor filter capacitor charging interval
when a drive is commanded to transfer the motor from bypass to drive. The minimum and the default
value is 1 second i.e. upon starting the drive it will take 1 second to begin the transfer from the bypass to
the drive. Using this parameter, the delay can be increased upto a maximum of 10 seconds and will be
useful for drives with an output transformer requiring more than 1 second for charging the motor filter
capacitor.
This parameter specifies the tachometer feedback speed indication. This reading is the signed indication
of the electrical speed measured from the tachometer.
This parameter specifies the type of tachometer or encoder installed. Warning: If tachometer type is set
to Single, the drive cannot determine the direction of rotation when the motor is coasting. If the direction
of rotation is not the same as the commanded direction, a flying start will not be successful.
This parameter specifies the number of pulses produced by the tachometer in one revolution. This
parameter is not used for absolute encoders.
This parameter specifies the offset of the encoder. This parameter is required because an encoder is
used for both speed and position.

adapter that can issue the direction command, a zero represents an adapter that cannot issue the
direction command. There are 8 adapters available, from Adapter0 to Adapter7. Adapter 0 is the XIO

This parameter indicates the number of pulses per cycle in the switching pattern for the rectifier on PWM
Rectifier drives.
This parameter indicates the number of pulses per cycle in the switching pattern for the inverter.
This parameter specifies the PWM firing pattern that is being used by the inverter SGCTs. Depending on
the stator frequency and the switching frequency, the inverter will be firing in one of the three different
PWM patterns:
The following table illustrates typically at what speeds each pattern is utilized:
This parameter indicates the dc link current value in per unit at which a PWM rectifier will switch from 5-
pulse firing to 3-pulse firing. If the dc link current is more than the parameter value and the dc link voltage
reference (Vdc Reference) is below Vdc Ref 5p to 3p (379), the drive will switch from 5-pulse to 3-pulse.

3p (560).
This parameter indicates the dc link current value in per unit at which a PWM rectifier will switch from 7-

Security Parameters
Port Mask Act [Port Mask Act]
Linear Number: 708
Access Level: Advanced
Read/Write: Read Only
This read-only parameter provides access to the current value of the Port Mask Active attribute for
diagnostic purposes. There is a bit for each port on the host, indicating whether the port is enabled or
disabled. When bit 15 is set, it indicates that FactoryTalk Security or some other Advanced Security tool
has set the Port Mask Active attribute.
The parameter is used to configure the value of the Logic Mask Active attribute unless the “Advanced” bit
is set in the attribute. If the “Advanced” bit is already set in the Logic Mask Active attribute, the value last
written to the attribute is used until a new value is written directly to the attribute. If the bit for a port is set
to “0”, the port will have no control functions of the drive except for stop.
This parameter provides read-only access to the current value of the Logic Mask Active attribute for
diagnostic purposes. When bit 15 is set, it indicates that FactoryTalk Security or some other Advanced
Security tool has set the Logic Mask Active attribute. If the bit for a port is set to “0”, the port will have no
control functions of the drive except for stop.
This parameter provides read-only access to the current value of the write Mask Active attribute for
diagnostic purposes. When bit 15 is set, it indicates that FactoryTalk security or some other Advanced
Security tool has set the Write Mask Active attribute. Each bit in the parameter controls whether the
device attached to the DPI port can write to parameters or links.
This parameter specifies the identity of an individual drive in a parallel drive system. All drives in a
system should have unique ID numbers. If two drives are programmed with the same ID number, the first
drive to be powered up will take ownership of the ID number and the other drive will be dropped off the
Drive Area Network. Drive ID numbers do not have to be consecutive, there can be gaps in the
sequence (e.g. 0, 1, 3). Usually, Drive ID numbers cannot be freely assigned but are predetermined by
the node addresses of the system controller (PLC).
This parameter defines the role that the drive will assume when the control is powered up.
If more than one drive in a parallel drive system is programmed as Master, the first drive to be powered
up will become the master and the other drives will become slaves.
This parameter specifies which drives in a parallel drive system are allowed to become master. A value
of 1 indicates that the corresponding drive can become master if required. A value of 0 indicates that the
corresponding drive will refuse to take on the role of master. Eight bits are defined:
This parameter specifies the Drive ID of the drive that is currently acting as master or has been requested
to become the master. For a master drive, this parameter will normally be the same as the Drive ID for
that drive. Setting this parameter to the ID of another drive in the system will cause the master to attempt
to transfer control to the specified drive. For a slave drive, this parameter will have a value of 8, which is
an invalid value for Drive ID.
This parameter specifies the total number of drives in a parallel drive system. This information cannot be
obtained by counting the number of drives on the Drive Area Network, because some drives in the
system may not be communicating. It is important that this parameter have the correct value because it
is used in calculating the rated current feedback of the drive.
