Altivar® 12
variable speed drives
Introduction
Introduction
The Altivar® 12 drive is a frequency inverter for three-phase 200 to 240 V
asynchronous motors rated from 0.18 kW to 4 kW.
Easy Plug & Play installation, compact size, integrated functions and alternative
base plate version make it particularly suitable for applications involving simple
industrial machines and certain consumer machines.
By considering the constraints governing installation and use at the product design
stage, we have been able to offer a reliable, cost-effective solution to manufacturers
of compact simple machines (OEMs) and installers.
The Altivar 12 variable speed drive features:
b Drivefactory-congurationforstart-upwithouttheneedforanyadjustment
b Multi-Loadercongurationtoolforloadingacongurationontothedrivewithout
taking it out of its packaging
b Labelledterminalstoreducewiringtime;driveidenticationonthefrontpanel
b Alternative delivery option of multiple units in a single special package (1). For
example… with the individually-shipped drives, it is possible to load a
congurationintoeachdrivewithouttakingthemoutofthepackaging.
Applications
Applications for simple industrial machines
b Handling (small conveyors, etc.)
b Packaging (small labelling machines, small bagging machines, etc.)
b Pumping applications (suction pumps, centrifugal pumps, circulating pumps,
mono-pump and multi-pump stations, etc.)
b Machinesequippedwithafan(airorsmokeextraction,plasticlmmaking
machines, ovens, boilers, washing machines, etc.)
Applications for consumer machines
b Handling (access barriers, rotating advertising hoardings, etc.)
b Machines for health-related areas (medical beds, hydromassage equipment,
running machines, etc.)
b Food and beverage industry machines (mills, kneading machines, mixers, etc.)
Other types of application
b Food and beverage industry (battery farming, greenhouses, etc.)
b Miscellaneous applications (mobile machines and small appliances equipped with
a power socket, etc.)
b Applications which traditionally use other solutions:
v 2-speed motor, DC motor, mechanical drive, etc.
v Single-phase motor for pump and fan applications using mechanical control;
the “Altivar 12 + three-phase motor” solution adapts the power to the requirements
of the driving application, thus reducing energy consumption.
Functions
In addition to the functions usually available on this type of drive, the Altivar 12 drive
also features the following:
b Switching between local control and control via the terminals
b Motorcontrolproles:standard,performanceandpump/fan
b Frequency skip
b Preset speeds
b PID regulator
b S ramp, U ramp, ramp switching
b Freewheel stop, fast stop
b Jog operation
b ConguringthelogicandanalogI/O
b Underload and overload detection
b Viewing the state of the logic inputs on the drive display

Introduction (continued) Altivar® 12
variable speed drives
An optimum solution
The Altivar® 12 range of variable speed drives extends across a range of motor
power ratings from 0.18 kW to 4 kW on three types of power supply: Two standard
versions are available:
Drive with heatsink for normal environments and fan-cooled enclosure:
v 100 to 120 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 0.75 kW (ATV12HpppF1)
v 200 to 240 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 2.2 kW (ATV12HpppM2)
v 200 to 240 V three-phase, 0.18 kW to 4 kW (ATV12HpppM3)
Drive on a base plate for mounting on the machine frame; the frame surface area
should allow heat to dissipate:
v 100 to 120 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 0.37 kW (ATV12H018F1, P037F1)
v 200 to 240 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 0.75 kW (ATV12H018M2, PpppM2)
v 200 to 240 V three-phase, 0.18 kW to 4 kW (ATV12H018M3, PpppM3)
Note: The Altivar 12 drive output voltage is 200 to 240 V three-phase, regardless of the type of
drive line supply.
The Altivar 12 drive utilizes standard Modbus communication protocol, and can be
accessed via the RJ45 connector located on the underside of the drive 4.
The entire range conforms to international standards IEC/EN 61800-5-1 and
IEC/EN61800-3,isUL,CSA,C-Tick,NOM,GOSTcertiedandhasbeendeveloped
to meet the requirements of directives regarding the protection of the environment
(RoHS, WEEE) as well as those of European Directives to obtain the e mark.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
TheintegrationofalevelC1EMClterinATV12ppppM2 drives and the handling of
EMC simplify installation and make it very inexpensive to bring the device into
conformity to obtain the e mark.
ThisEMCltercanbedisconnectedviaaninternalswitch6.
ATV12ppppF1 and ATV12ppppM3drivesaredesignedwithoutanEMClter.Filters
are available as an option and can be installed by the customer to reduce
the level of emissions (see page 16).
External accessories and options
External accessories and options can be used with Altivar 12 drives:
EMC conformity kits, plates for direct mounting on 35 mm DIN rails, etc.
Braking units combined with a braking resistor, motor chokes, additional EMC input
lters,etc.
Dialog and conguration tools
Human/Machine Interface (HMI)
The 4-digit display 1 can be used to display states and faults, access parameters
and modify them via the navigation button 2.
The RUN and STOP buttons 3 can be made accessible on the front panel by removing
the blanking plate 5fromthedoor;theymustbeconguredinordertobeactive.
Simple Loader and Multi-Loader conguration tools
TheSimpleLoadertoolenablesonepowered-updrive'scongurationtobe
duplicated on another powered-up drive.
TheMulti-LoadertoolenablescongurationsfromaPCordrivetobecopiedand
duplicated on another drive; the drives do not need to be powered up.
SoMove setup software
TheSoMovesetupsoftwarecanbeusedwiththeAltivar12driveforconguration,
adjustment,debugging(usingtheOscilloscopefunction)andmaintenance,justasit
can for all other Schneider Electric variable speed drives and starters. It can also be
used to customize the integrated display terminal menus. It can be used with a direct
connection or a Bluetooth® wireless connection.
Remote display terminal
The Altivar 12 drive can be connected to a remote display terminal, available as an
option. This terminal can be mounted on an enclosure door with IP 54 or IP 65
degree of protection. The maximum operating temperature is 50°C. It provides

Thecurvesoppositedenetheavailablecontinuoustorqueandtransientovertorque
for both self-cooled and force-cooled motors.
The only difference is in the ability of the motor to provide a high continuous torque at
less than half the nominal speed.
Self-cooled motor: continuous useful torque 1 (1)
Force-cooled motor: continuous useful torque2
Transient overtorque for 60 s3
Transient overtorque for 2 s4
Torque in overspeed at constant power 5 (2)
(1) For power ratings y 250 W, de-rating is 20% instead of 50% at very low frequencies.
(2) The nominal motor frequency and the maximum output frequency can be adjusted from
0.5 to 400 Hz. The mechanical overspeed capability of the selected motor must be checked with
the manufacturer.
Special uses
Use with a motor with different power to the drive rating
The device can power any motor which has a lower rating than that for which the drive was designed, provided that the minimum current value
is complied with: Ith = 0.2 x drive In.
For motor ratings slightly higher than that of the drive, check that the current taken does not exceed the continuous output current of the drive.

Connecting motors in parallel
Altivar 12
The drive rating must be greater than or equal to the sum of the currents of the
motors to be connected to the drive (In). In this case, it is necessary to provide
external thermal protection for each motor using probes or thermal overload relays.
Use of a motor choke (1) is recommended in the following cases:
When three or more motors are connected in parallel
When the motor cable length (L), including all tap links (L1, L2 to Lx), is longer than
the maximum permitted motor cable length (2)
(1) See References on page 17.
(2) For maximum permitted motor cable length, see page 11.
Motor switching at the drive output
Motor switching is possible with the drive unlocked. The integrated protection in Altivar® 12 drives offers better immunity to downstream
breaking of the powered motor.

(1) These values are given for a nominal switching frequency of 4 kHz, for use in continuous operation.
If operation above 4 kHz needs to be continuous, the nominal drive current should be derated by 10% for 8 kHz, 20% for 12 kHz
and 30% for 16 kHz.
The switching frequency can be set between 2 and 16 kHz for all ratings.
Above 4 kHz, the drive will reduce the switching frequency automatically in the event of an excessive temperature rise.

Note: The general rules set out below should be adapted to suit the operating
environment. Please refer to the specic manual for the Altivar® 12 base plate
version, available on our website at "www.schneider-electric.us".
ATV12Ppppp drives can be mounted on (or in) a steel or aluminium
machine frame, observing the following conditions:
Maximum ambient temperature: 40°C
Vertical mounting at ± 10°
The drive must be mounted at the center of a support (frame) with
high thermal conductivity
Support area for the drive machined on the frame with a surface
smoothness of 100 µm max and unevenness of 3.2 µm max.
When the operating conditions are close to
the maximum limits
(power, cycle and
temperature) this type of use must be checked
beforehand,
by monitoring the thermal state of the drive.

Connections for ensuring conformity to EMC standards
Principle
b Grounds between the drive, motor and cable shielding must have "high frequency" equipotentiality.
b Use shielded cables with shielding connected to ground throughout 360° at both ends for the motor cable and the control-signalling cables.
Conduit or metal ducting can be used for part of the shielding length provided that there is no break in the continuity of the ground connection.
b Ensure maximum separation between the line supply cable and the motor cable.

Unshielded power supply wires or cable3
Unshielded wires or cable for the output of the fault relay contacts4
Shielding of cables 5 6 and 7 attached and grounded as close as possible to
the drive:
Strip the cable to expose the shielding. -
Attach the cable to the plate - 1 by tightening the clamp on the stripped part of
the shielding.
The shielding must be clamped tightly enough to the metal surface to ensure
good contact.
For cables 6 and 7, the shielding must be connected to ground at both ends.
The shielding must be continuous, and if intermediate terminals are used,
they must be placed in EMC shielded metal boxes.
Shielded cable for connecting the motor6
Shielded cable for connecting the control-signalling cables. For applications 7
requiring several conductors, use cables with a small cross-section (0.5 mm2)
Unshielded cable for connecting the braking unit8

drives
Note: The HF equipotential ground connection between the drive, motor and cable shielding does not remove the need to connect the PE conductors (green-
yellow) to the appropriate terminals on each unit. If using an additional EMC input lter, it should be mounted beneath the drive and connected directly to the line
supply via an unshielded cable. Link 3 on the drive is then established via the lter output cable.
Use on an IT system (isolated or impedance grounded neutral)
Use a permanent insulation monitor, such as Schneider Electric's XM200, which is compatible with non-linear loads. ATV12ppppM2 drives
haveintegratedEMClters.
ForuseonanITsystem,theselterscaneasilybedisconnectedbymeansofaselectorswitch10 which can be accessed without removing

They are used to select 2 or 4 high speeds (HSP/HSP2 or HSP/HSP2/HSP3/HSP4).
Enabling 2 or 4 high speeds requires the use of 1 or 2 logic inputs respectively.
Control modes
There are several control and reference channels which can be independent.
Commands (forward, reverse, etc.) and speed references can be sent via the
following channels:
v Terminals (logic and analog I/O)
v Local mode (STOP/RESET and RUN buttons and the navigation button)
v Remote display terminal
v Modbus® serial link
The control and reference channels can be separate (separate mode).
Example: The Run/Stop commands come from the terminals and the speed
reference comes from the Modbus serial link.
The control and reference channels can also come from the same source
(not separate mode).

depends on the machine process.
2or4presetPIDreferences,adjustablefrom0to100%ofthemaximum -
frequency. This signal depends on the machine process. These references require
the use of 1 or 2 logic inputs respectively.
Manual reference, given by the navigation button. -
v PID feedback
Analog input AI1 -
v Auto/Man.
Logic input LI for switching operation to speed reference (Man.) or PID regulation -
(Auto)
During operation in automatic mode, it is possible to adapt the process feedback,
tocorrectinversePIDandtoadjusttheproportionalandintegralgains.
The motor speed is limited to between LSP and HSP.
Conguration of the logic input level
Activates the function assigned to the logic input, whether at high logic level or low
logic level, if permitted by the safety rules.
Example: Ramp switching is assigned to logic input LI2; this function is active if LI2
changestohighorlowlogicleveldependingontheconguration.
I/O monitoring
Shows the logic state of inputs LI1, LI2, LI3 and LI4 and outputs LO+ and R1 on the
4-digit display.
Operating direction: forward/reverse
2-wire control: Forward operation is always assigned to logic input LI1. Reverse
operation can be assigned to logic input LI2, LI3 or LI4.
3-wire control: Stop is always assigned to logic input LI1 and forward operation is
always assigned to logic input LI2. Reverse operation can be assigned to either logic
input LI3 or LI4.
2-wire control
Controls the direction of operation by means of a stay-put contact (permanent
contact, stable logic level 0 or 1, switch).
Run (forward or reverse) and stop commands are controlled by the same logic input.
Enabled by means of 1 or 2 logic inputs (non-reversing or reversing).
See page 22 for the connection diagram.
Three operating modes are possible:
v Detection of the state of the logic inputs
v Detection of a change in state of the logic inputs
v Detection of the state of the logic inputs with forward operation always having
priority over reverse
3-wire control
Controls the operating direction and stopping by means of pulsed contacts
(pushbutton-operated temporary contact).
Run (forward or reverse) and stop commands are controlled by 2 different logic inputs.
Enabled by means of 2 or 3 logic inputs (non-reversing or reversing).

variable speed drives
Ramp time switching
This function is used to switch two acceleration and deceleration ramp times,
which can be set separately.
Enabled by means of 1 assignable logic input.
It is suitable for machines with fast speed correction in steady state and high-speed
lathes with acceleration and deceleration limiting above certain speeds.
Acceleration and deceleration ramp proles
This function can be used to gradually increase the output frequency starting from a
speedreference,followingalinearproleorapresetprole.
v S ramps
The use of S ramps is dedicated to applications involving handling, packaging and
passengertransport;thismethodtakesupmechanicalbacklashandeliminatesjolts,
and also limits “non-following” of speed during rapid transient operation of high-
inertia machines.
v U ramps
The use of U ramps is dedicated to pump applications such as an installation with
centrifugal pump and non-return valve; this method enables valve closing to be
controlled more accurately.
Selecting“linear”,“S”,or“U”proleswillaffectboththeaccelerationand
deceleration ramps.
Automatic adaptation of deceleration ramp
This function is used to increase the deceleration time automatically if the initial
setting is too low when the load inertia is taken into account. It prevents the drive
locking on an “overvoltage on deceleration” fault.
If a braking unit is connected to the drive, this function must be disabled.
Stop types
Thisisusedtodenethedrivestopmode.
There are three stop types:
v Freewheel stop: When the drive is locked, the motor stops in freewheel mode
depending on the application; the motor power supply is cut.
v Stop on deceleration ramp: The motor stops according to the deceleration ramp
timewhichcanbexedoradaptable(seethe“Automaticadaptationofdeceleration
ramp” function).
v Fast stop: Braked stop with an acceptable deceleration ramp time (divided by a
coefcientwhichcanbesetbetween1and10)forthedrive/motorunitwithout
locking in the event of an “overvoltage on deceleration” fault.

Limiting low speed operating time
The motor is stopped automatically after a period of operation at low speed (LSP).
This time can be set between 0.1 and 999 seconds (0 corresponds to an unlimited
time).
The motor restarts automatically on a ramp when the reference reappears.
This function is suitable for automatic stops/starts, especially in pump applications.
Conguration of analog input AI1
Thisisusedtomodifythespecications,foreithervoltageorcurrent,ofanaloginput
AI1.
Factory-setconguration:0-5V(internalpowersupply).
Other possible values via external power supply: 0-10 V, X-Y mA by programming X
and Y with 0 to 20 mA.
Automatic restart
This function enables the drive to be restarted automatically after it has locked in
fault mode, provided the relevant fault has disappeared and the other operating
conditions permit a restart.
This restart is performed by a series of automatic attempts separated by increasingly
long waiting periods of 1 s, 5 s, 10 s, then 1 min for subsequent periods.
If the drive has not restarted after 6 minutes, it locks and the procedure is abandoned
until the drive is powered down and back up again.
Factory-setconguration:Functioninactive.
Restarting is permitted with the following faults:
v Drive thermal overload
v Motor thermal overload
v Line overvoltage
v Overvoltage during deceleration
v Motor overload
v Motor underload
v Output phase loss
v Input phase loss (1)
v Line undervoltage (2)
v Modbus serial link
For this type of fault, the fault relay remains activated if the function has been
congured.
This function requires the speed reference and the direction of operation to be
maintained, and is only compatible with 2-wire level control.
This function is suitable for machines or installations which are in continuous
operation or are not monitored, and where a restart will not endanger equipment or
personnel in any way.
Automatic catching of a spinning load with speed detection (“catch on the y”)
Used to restart the motor smoothly after one of the following events:
v Loss of line supply or power off
v Fault reset or automatic restart
v Freewheel stop
Once the event is over, the actual motor speed is detected in order to restart on a
ramp at this speed and return to the reference speed. The speed detection time can
be up to 1 s (typical value) depending on the initial deviation.
Factory-setconguration:Functioninactive.
Thisfunctionrequiresthe“automaticDCinjectionbraking”functiontobedisabled.
This function is suitable for machines for which the loss of motor speed is negligible
during the power failure (machines with high inertia).
(1) The “input phase loss” fault is only accessible on drives with a three-phase power supply,
if monitoring of the fault has been enabled (factory-set conguration: enabled).
(2) The drive will restart as soon as the “undervoltage” fault disappears, regardless of whether
the function is active.

requirements:
v Standard (U/F):Simplemotorcontrolprolemaintainingaconstantvoltage/

Prolesuitableforrunningmachines,etc.
v Pump/Fan (Kn²): Quadratic ratio for obtaining a torque proportional to the square
ofthespeed.Thisprolecanbeusedtooptimizeenergyconsumptionaccordingto
the load applied to the machine.
Prolesuitableforpumpregulation,airextraction,etc.
Switching frequency, noise reduction
The switching frequency setting between 2 and 16 kHz permits a reduction in the
noise generated by the motor for any application requiring a low level of noise.
The switching frequency can be modulated randomly in order to avoid resonance.
This function can be disabled if it causes instability.
Switching the DC voltage at high frequency is useful for supplying the motor with a
current wave having little harmonic distortion.
This type of operation increases drive overheating.
Factory-setconguration:Lowfrequencysetat4kHz.
Frequency jump
Used to pass a mechanical resonance point likely to cause increased noise or risk of
mechanical breakdown.
Thefrequencyjumpisxed.Itiswithin±1Hzoftheconguredresonancepoint.

Thiscanbeusedforpulseoperationwithminimumramptimes(0.1s),axedspeed
reference set at 5 Hz and minimum time of 0.5 s between 2 pulses.

This function is suitable for machines with product insertion in manual mode (for
example, gradual movement of the mechanism during maintenance operations).

variable speed drives
Fault relay, unlocking
The fault relay is energized when the drive is powered up and is not faulty.
It opens in the event of a fault or when the drive is powered down.
The drive can be unlocked after a fault in one of the following ways:
v By powering down the drive until the display disappears completely, then
powering back up
v By activating the logic input associated with the “fault reset” function, if the function
is enabled
v By enabling the “automatic restart” function
Drive thermal protection
Thermal protection is integrated in the drive. When the fault is detected, it locks the
drive.
Depending on the model, the drive is equipped with a fan.
The drive optimizes management of fan operation in order to reduce the amount of
maintenance work and the equipment noise level.
Motor thermal protection
The theoretical temperature rise of the motor is continuously calculated to provide
thermal protection.
The drive calculates this temperature rise using the following elements:
v The operating frequency
v The current taken by the motor
v The operating time
v The type of motor ventilation (self-cooled or force-cooled)
Thermal protection can be set at anything from 0.2 times the nominal drive current.
It must be set to the nominal current indicated on the motor rating plate.
Note: When the power supply is de-energized, the motor thermal state may or may not be
stored, depending on the chosen conguration.
Monitoring
The display shows the state of the drive or, if selected, one of the following values:
v Frequency reference
v Output frequency applied to the motor
v Motor current
v Line voltage
v Output power
v Motor thermal state
v Drive thermal state
v PID error
v PID feedback
v PID reference
v Motor operating status (stop, forward, reverse, run, acceleration, deceleration,
braking, freewheel stop, etc.)

Underload detection
This function stops the motor when it is underloaded. The function is active in
steady state.
Ifthecurrentisbelowanunderloadthresholdforanadjustableperiodoftime,
the drive locks in underload fault mode.
Thecurrentthresholdisadjustablebetween20%and100%ofthenominalmotor
current value.

the function is deactivated.
This function is particularly suitable for protecting pumps during cavitation.
Overload detection
This function stops the motor when it is overloaded. The function is active in steady
state.
Ifthemotorcurrentishigherthananoverloadthresholdforanadjustableperiodof
time, the drive locks in overload fault mode.
The overload threshold can be set to between 70% and 150% of the nominal motor
current.
Hysteresisof10%isappliedtothisthresholdtoconrmtheendofoverload
conditions.
The time delay can be set at anything up to 100 s. When this parameter is at 0,
the function is deactivated.
Fault acknowledgment
This is used to clear the stored fault and restart the drive if the cause of the fault has
disappeared.
The fault is cleared by a transition of the logic input LI which is assigned to this
function.
Factory-setconguration:Functioninactive.
The restart conditions after a reset are the same as those of a normal power-up.
The following faults can be reset (1): drive thermal overload, motor thermal overload,
line overvoltage, overvoltage on deceleration, overspeed, input phase loss (2), etc.

Pump-specic application functions
Themainobjectivehereistocontrolacompletepumpinginstallationusingasingle
Altivar®12drivebyensuringconstantpressureinthesystemwhatevertheowrate.
The Altivar 12 has 11 functions designed for water pumping applications:
b Control in single variable mode
b Control in single variable mode with auxiliary pump
b Underload detection
b Overload detection
b Sleep
b Wake-up
b PID feedback supervision
b No-load operation detection
b Quick start
b Automatic restart on underload and overload faults
b PIDreferenceadjustmentrangefortheenduser
Control in single variable mode
The system is operated using a single variable speed pump ( 1).
A PID regulator controls the variable speed pump.
A pressure sensor provides the “PID feedback” information required for system
feedback.
Control in single variable mode with auxiliary pump
Thesystemisoperatedusingaxedspeedpump,calledtheauxiliarypump,anda
variablespeedpump,whichisunabletoprovidethefullowrangerequiredonits
own ( 2).
The auxiliary pump's starting and stopping are controlled by logic output LO+
according to the PID regulator output (variable pump frequency reference) with a
hysteresis effect as shown in the diagram below ( 3).
Auxiliary pump starting (4)
If the variable pump control frequency exceeds the threshold (FOn) for longer than a
time period (tON), the auxiliary pump is put into operation (1). The variable pump
reference decreases linearly until it reaches the threshold (FOF).
In order to reduce the effect of overpressure caused by starting of the auxiliary
pump, the deceleration time of the variable pump (rOn) must be set to the time that
the auxiliary pump takes to reach its nominal speed.
Auxiliary pump stopping (5)
Conversely, if the variable pump control frequency falls below the threshold (FOF)
for a period (tOF), the auxiliary pump is stopped (2) and the variable pump reference
increases linearly until it reaches the threshold (FOn). The acceleration time (rOF)
is set to the stopping time of the auxiliary pump in order to minimize the effect of
underpressure.

PID feedback supervision
Once the variable pump is running at maximum speed and at the same time the PID
feedback is lower than the supervision threshold (LPI) at the end of a time delay
(tPI), the drive switches to fallback mode. There are two possible scenarios (see
graphs below):

v Congurablexedspeedoperationwithdisplayofaspecicfaultcode2.

No-load operation detection
Thisfunctionisusedinapplicationswherezeroowcannotbedetectedbythesleep
function alone. It is active when the auxiliary pump is stopped and the variable pump
motorfrequencyreferenceisbelowaconguredthreshold.
It consists of periodically forcing the motor frequency reference to a low value:
v If the request is still present, it results in an increase in the PID error and the drive
reverts to regulation in line with the previous reference.
v Iftherequestisnolongerpresent(zeroow),thePIDerrorwillnotchange,
which is characteristic of no-load operation. The variable pump motor is stopped.

Quick start
The quick start function aims to overcome the problems associated with the high
regulation gains that are necessary at start-up but inappropriate for regulation.
The drive accelerates linearly on a ramp (ACC) until its speed reaches the
conguredquickstartthreshold(SFS).
Once it reaches this threshold (SFS), PID regulation begins.

Automatic restart on underload and overload faults
Generally, the user can set a parameter to activate automatic restarting after a fault,
if the cause(s) of the fault no longer exist(s).
In the case of underload and overload faults, a delay which can be set between 1 s
and 6 min 16 s can be used to delay the restart.
PID reference adjustment range for the end user
ThisfunctionallowstheendusertoadjustthePIDregulatorreferencetoincreaseor

AdjustmentbytheuseriseitherbymodifyingthePIDregulatorreferenceparameter,
or by manual control of the navigation button, accessible on the drive's front panel.
The installer has access to two PID reference limit parameters, which can be used to
deneauser'srangeofaction.
Incompatible functions
Application functions can be assigned to the same logic input, in which case one
logic input enables a number of functions (for example, direction of operation and
ramp time switching).
A check must be carried out to ensure that the functions are compatible:
Direction of operation and 2-wire control: Forward operation can only be
assigned to LI1.
Direction of operation and 3-wire control: Forward operation can only be
assigned to LI2.
Automatic restart:Thisfunctionrequiresthecongurationof2-wirelevelcontrol.
