Preface


Ensuring reliable operation The manual describes a desired state which, if maintained, ensures the required level of operational reliability and compliance with EMC limit values.

Should there be any deviation from the requirements in the manual, appropriate actions (e.g. measurements) must be taken to check/prove that the required level of operational reliability and compliance with EMC limit values are ensured.

Spare parts Spare parts are available on the Internet at the following address (https://www.automation.siemens.com/sow?sap-language=EN).

Product maintenance The components are subject to continuous further development within the scope of product maintenance (improvements to robustness, discontinuations of components, etc).

These further developments are "spare parts-compatible" and do not change the article number.

In the scope of such spare parts-compatible further developments, connector positions are sometimes changed slightly. This does not cause any problems with proper use of the components. Please take this fact into consideration in special installation situations (e.g. allow sufficient clearance for the cable length).

Fundamental safety instructions 1 1.1 General safety instructions

DANGER

Danger to life due to live parts and other energy sources

Death or serious injury can result when live parts are touched. • Only work on electrical devices when you are qualified for this job. • Always observe the country-specific safety rules.

Generally, six steps apply when establishing safety: 1. Prepare for shutdown and notify all those who will be affected by the procedure. 2. Disconnect the machine from the supply.

– Switch off the machine. – Wait until the discharge time specified on the warning labels has elapsed. – Check that it really is in a no-voltage condition, from phase conductor to phase

conductor and phase conductor to protective conductor. – Check whether the existing auxiliary supply circuits are de-energized. – Ensure that the motors cannot move.

3. Identify all other dangerous energy sources, e.g. compressed air, hydraulic systems, or water.

4. Isolate or neutralize all hazardous energy sources by closing switches, grounding or short-circuiting or closing valves, for example.

5. Secure the energy sources against switching on again. 6. Ensure that the correct machine is completely interlocked.

After you have completed the work, restore the operational readiness in the inverse sequence.

WARNING

Danger to life through a hazardous voltage when connecting an unsuitable power supply

Touching live components can result in death or severe injury. • Only use power supplies that provide SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV-

(Protective Extra Low Voltage) output voltages for all connections and terminals of the electronics modules.

Fundamental safety instructions 1.1 General safety instructions


WARNING

Danger to life when live parts are touched on damaged devices

Improper handling of devices can cause damage.

For damaged devices, hazardous voltages can be present at the enclosure or at exposed components; if touched, this can result in death or severe injury. • Ensure compliance with the limit values specified in the technical data during transport,

storage and operation. • Do not use any damaged devices.

WARNING

Danger to life through electric shock due to unconnected cable shields

Hazardous touch voltages can occur through capacitive cross-coupling due to unconnected cable shields. • As a minimum, connect cable shields and the conductors of power cables that are not

used (e.g. brake cores) at one end at the grounded housing potential.

WARNING

Danger to life due to electric shock when not grounded

For missing or incorrectly implemented protective conductor connection for devices with protection class I, high voltages can be present at open, exposed parts, which when touched, can result in death or severe injury. • Ground the device in compliance with the applicable regulations.

WARNING

Danger to life due to electric shock when opening plug connections in operation

When opening plug connections in operation, arcs can result in severe injury or death. • Only open plug connections when the equipment is in a no-voltage state, unless it has

been explicitly stated that they can be opened in operation.



WARNING

Danger to life through electric shock due to the residual charge of the power component capacitors

Because of the capacitors, a hazardous voltage is present for up to 5 minutes after the power supply has been switched off. Contact with live parts can result in death or serious injury. • Wait for 5 minutes before you check that the unit really is in a no-voltage condition and

start work.

NOTICE

Material damage due to loose power connections

Insufficient tightening torques or vibrations can result in loose electrical connections. This can result in damage due to fire, device defects or malfunctions. • Tighten all power connections with the specified tightening torques, e.g. line supply

connection, motor connection, DC link connections. • Check all power connections at regular intervals. This applies in particular after

transport.

WARNING

Danger to life due to fire spreading if housing is inadequate

Fire and smoke development can cause severe personal injury or material damage. • Install devices without a protective housing in a metal control cabinet (or protect the

device by another equivalent measure) in such a way that contact with fire is prevented. • Ensure that smoke can only escape via controlled and monitored paths.

WARNING

Danger to life from electromagnetic fields

Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are generated by the operation of electrical power equipment, such as transformers, converters, or motors.

People with pacemakers or implants are at particular risk in the immediate vicinity of this equipment. • If you have a heart pacemaker or implant, maintain a minimum distance of 2 m from

electrical power equipment.



WARNING

Danger to life through unexpected movement of machines when using mobile wireless devices or mobile phones

Using mobile wireless devices or mobile phones with a transmit power > 1 W closer than approx. 2 m to the components may cause the devices to malfunction, influence the functional safety of machines therefore putting people at risk or causing material damage. • Switch the wireless devices or mobile phones off in the immediate vicinity of the

components.

WARNING

Danger to life due to the motor catching fire in the event of insulation overload

There is higher stress on the motor insulation through a ground fault in an IT system. If the insulation fails, it is possible that death or severe injury can occur as a result of smoke and fire. • Use a monitoring device that signals an insulation fault. • Correct the fault as quickly as possible so the motor insulation is not overloaded.

WARNING

Danger to life due to fire if overheating occurs because of insufficient ventilation clearances

Inadequate ventilation clearances can cause overheating of components with subsequent fire and smoke. This can cause severe injury or even death. This can also result in increased downtime and reduced service lives for devices/systems. • Ensure compliance with the specified minimum clearance as ventilation clearance for

the respective component.

WARNING

Danger of an accident occurring due to missing or illegible warning labels

Missing or illegible warning labels can result in accidents involving death or serious injury. • Check that the warning labels are complete based on the documentation. • Attach any missing warning labels to the components, in the national language if

necessary. • Replace illegible warning labels.



NOTICE

Device damage caused by incorrect voltage/insulation tests

Incorrect voltage/insulation tests can damage the device. • Before carrying out a voltage/insulation check of the system/machine, disconnect the

devices as all converters and motors have been subject to a high voltage test by the manufacturer, and therefore it is not necessary to perform an additional test within the system/machine.

WARNING

Danger to life when safety functions are inactive

Safety functions that are inactive or that have not been adjusted accordingly can cause operational faults on machines that could lead to serious injury or death. • Observe the information in the appropriate product documentation before

commissioning. • Carry out a safety inspection for functions relevant to safety on the entire system,

including all safety-related components. • Ensure that the safety functions used in your drives and automation tasks are adjusted

and activated through appropriate parameterizing. • Perform a function test. • Only put your plant into live operation once you have guaranteed that the functions

relevant to safety are running correctly.

Note Important safety notices for Safety Integrated functions

If you want to use Safety Integrated functions, you must observe the safety notices in the Safety Integrated manuals.

WARNING

Danger to life or malfunctions of the machine as a result of incorrect or changed parameterization

As a result of incorrect or changed parameterization, machines can malfunction, which in turn can lead to injuries or death. • Protect the parameterization (parameter assignments) against unauthorized access. • Respond to possible malfunctions by applying suitable measures (e.g. EMERGENCY

STOP or EMERGENCY OFF).

3. Commission the drive at the control panel

4. Carry out a basic parameterization of the drive device

5. Optional: Load the project to the target device.

6. Result: the motor turns.

Commissioning 4.3 Creating a project


4.3 Creating a project

4.3.1 Creating a new project or opening a project For projects, the choice is yours:

● You create a completely new project (see "Create new project").

● You open an existing project, and subsequently change the project configuration (see "Open existing project").

Precondition You have opened the Startdrive in the TIA Portal (Page 53)application.

Creating a new project You can create new projects once the Startdrive application has been opened in the TIA Portal.

1. Click on "Create new project" in the secondary navigation in the Portal view of Startdrive.

The entry fields for the basic project data are displayed to the right in the detailed view.

Figure 4-1 Entering project data

- or -



Click on "Browse", double-click on the required project in your directory structure, select project file "*.ap14".

Figure 4-4 Opening an existing project from the directory

Then click on "Open".

Result

The selected project opens. If another project was previously displayed, then it is now closed.

● If you have created a new project, the next possible steps for the project that has been opened are now displayed in the detailed review (see the description in the following Chapters).

● If you have opened an existing project, the interconnected modules of this project are displayed in the device view. You can specify existing modules differently, or remove existing modules and insert new modules instead.



4.3.2 Recommended order of creation After a new project has been created, the required components must be inserted into the device configuration – and in most cases, also specified. If an optimum sequence is maintained when inserting the components, then the inserted components are also automatically wired.

Recommended order:

1. Drive

2. Infeed unit

3. Motor Module

4. Motor

5. Encoder (measuring system)

6. Supplementary system components (Terminal Modules, Terminal Board)

If this sequence is not complied with (e.g. because the infeed unit is only subsequently added), then it is possible that Startdrive does not automatically wire the components. In this case, you must manually establish the wiring in the device view (see Chapter "Editing a DRIVE-CLiQ connection (Page 70)").

Note

For several motors, when creating the motor, an encoder not specified in the device view is simultaneously created. In this case, a separate encoder no longer has to be created.



4.3.3 Inserting a drive

4.3.4 Inserting an infeed unit

4.3.4.1 Inserting a space holder for an infeed unit

Precondition ● A project has been created.

● A control module (drive) has been inserted in the device configuration.

Note Sequence

Generally, the infeed unit is inserted in the configuration immediately after the drive in the device view. In this case, the infeed unit is also automatically wired to the drive.

You can also insert an infeed unit at a later point in time (for example, after the Motor Module). The infeed unit is then no longer automatically wired. In this case, you must manually wire the "infeed unit" component with the other components (see Chapter "Editing a DRIVE-CLiQ connection (Page 70)").

Note

Handling components in the device view is subsequently explained using an infeed unit as example. The procedure is identical for all other components.



Inserting an infeed unit You insert an infeed unit via the hardware catalog

1. Open "Line Modules" in the hardware catalog.

Active Line Modules, Basic Line Modules and Smart Line Modules can be selected.

4.3.7 Inserting measuring systems

4.3.7.1 Overview

Definition For encoders, a distinction is made between 2 basic measuring system types:

● Motor encoder is normally mounted on the motor shaft so that motor motion (angle of rotation, rotor position etc.) can be directly measured. Motor encoders supply the speed actual value that is incorporated in the closed-loop control (closed-loop speed and current control), so that for fast controllers, the speed actual value must also be supplied as quickly enough. This is the reason that high quality encoders must be used for motor encoders.

– Siemens motors that have already been configured are created in the device view with the matching encoder and the encoder evaluation.

– DRIVE-CLiQ motors are inserted together with an encoder. The drive and encoder parameters are transferred when you then load the configuration to the drive (download). The correct motor and encoder configuration is available after an upload.

● Machine encoders are installed in the machine. Using machine encoders, for example, you synchronize the speed of a belt to another belt, or you determine the position of a workpiece. Basic, mounted encoders can be used in this case as these values are normally not required in a fast speed controller or current controller cycle.

Available measuring systems (encoder) The following encoder types are supported in Startdrive:

● DRIVE-CLiQ encoder

These encoders are parameterized when downloading - and after an upload, are correctly displayed.

● SIN/COS encoders

Incremental encoders, which supply a sinusoidal/cosinusoidal type signal, are also available with SSI protocol.

● HTL/TTL encoders

Incremental encoders, which supply a square wave pattern, are also available with SSI protocol.

● ENDAT 2.1

Absolute encoders, which are controlled via the ENDAT 2.1 protocol.

● SSI encoder

Absolute encoders, which are controlled via the SSI protocol.

● Resolvers

Rotary position encoders.



More detailed information on the encoders is provided in the Startdrive online help.

Note Encoders from the hardware catalog

All of the encoders, which are listed in the hardware catalog, no longer have to be parameterized, as they are already preassigned the appropriate settings.

For user-defined encoders (third-party encoders), the parameters must be entered as subsequently described.





● A Motor Module is inserted.

● A motor is inserted (optional).

Utilizing this procedure, you insert the encoder after the motor (seeRecommended order of creation (Page 59)).



Inserting and specifying an encoder Using the hardware catalog, you insert an encoder in an unspecified form.

1. Open "Measuring systems" in the hardware catalog.

One of the following measuring systems can be selected:

– DRIVE-CLiQ encoder

– SIN/COS encoder

– SSI encoder

– SIN/COS + SSI encoder

– HTL/TTL encoder

– HTL/TTL + SSI encoder

– EnDat 2.1 encoder

– Resolver

2. Select the unspecified encoder in the device overview.

Figure 4-23 Encoder selected

4.3.7.3 Encoder system connection

Description The Sensor Modules evaluate the signals from the connected motor encoders or external encoders and convert the signals so that they can be evaluated by the Control Unit. The encoder system can only be connected to SINAMICS via DRIVE-CLiQ. The following rule applies: Motor encoders are connected to the associated Motor Module, external encoders are connected to the Control Unit. In conjunction with motor encoders, the motor temperature can also be evaluated using Sensor Modules.

4.4 Establishing an online connection to the drive

4.4.1 Overview 2 interfaces are available for CU320-2 PN Control Units, via which you can go online with the drive.

Interfaces for the online connection You first connect your PC to the appropriate Control Unit interface.

IP addresses of the CU (hardware)

● Ethernet commissioning interface X127:

For X127, an IP address and a subnet mask have already been assigned on the Control Unit in the factory:

– IP address: 169.254.11.22

– Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

Note

Adhere to setup and Industrial Security guidelines - cell protection concept

Only local access (point-to-point connection) is permissible for this interface.

● PROFINET interface X150:

For X150, an IP address and a subnet mask have already been assigned on the Control Unit in the factory:

– IP address: 0.0.0.0

– Subnet mask: 0.0.0.0

Note

Adhere to setup and Industrial Security guidelines - cell protection concept

In accordance with the Defense in Depth concept, PROFINET must be isolated from the remaining plant/system network (see also Chapter "Industrial Security (Page 23)"). Access to cables and possibly open connections must be implemented in a protected fashion, for example, in a control cabinet.



IP addresses in the project

A CU320-2 PN is created with the following IP addresses in a project in TIA Portal:

● Ethernet commissioning interface X127:

The addresses correspond to the addresses that have already been assigned in the drive.

– IP address: 169.254.11.22

– Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

● PROFINET interface X150:

The following addresses are assigned for X150:

– IP address: 192.168.0.1 (example)

– Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

PROFINET addresses lie in the area of the PROFINET subnet of a SIMATIC S7 PLC control, so that you can network the drive with a control system without having to adapt the subnet mask and IP address.

4.6 Basic parameterization of the drive objects

4.6.1 Control Unit

4.6.1.1 Web server The web server provides information on a SINAMICS device via its web pages. Access is via an Internet browser. The information on the web pages is shown in German or English. For information about message texts, drive object states and parameter names, there is a language selection which allows the display to be switched over to the required language (German, English, Chinese, Italian, French, Spanish).

You configure the web server using a screen form.

Calling the screen form 1. In the project navigation, select menu "Drive control > Parameter".

The corresponding detailed view is displayed at the right.

2. In the secondary navigation, call menu "Basic parameterization > Web server".

The detailed view is updated. The settings become active for the web server.

Figure 4-45 Web server configuration



Deactivating the web server The web server is activated as default setting in the configuration. When required, you can deactivate the web server as follows:

1. In the configuration dialog, deactivate the "Activate" option.

2. Then save the project to accept the settings.

Restricting web server access to just secure connections Using the default configuration of the web server, you can access the SINAMICS frequency converter via an HTTP connection or via the encrypted HTTPS connection. Using the configuration, access can be restricted so that only a secure HTTPS connection is possible.

NOTICE

Using non-encrypted connections (HTTP)

When using the HTTP protocol, the login data is also sent unencrypted. This facilitates password theft attacks, for example, and can lead to data manipulation by unauthorized parties and thus ultimately to damages. • Limit access to secure connections so that all data is transferred encrypted.

The configuration option provided to limit connections to HTTPS can only be changed when the web server is active.

● in the Startdrive configuration dialog

● in the web server prior to commissioning for the first time

● via parameter p8986

Procedure:

1. In the configuration dialog, activate option "Only permit access via https".

Figure 4-46 https access



Releasing users You can release "SINAMICS" and "Administrator" users with their specific rights. You can also specify as to whether password protection should be active for the "SINAMICS" user. Default settings:

● SINAMICS: Password protection

We recommend that you change the password. This must comprise at least 8 characters.

● Administrator: Password protection (password is preset).

A password with at least 8 characters must be assigned. If a password has not been assigned, the following warning appears when attempting to login "A09000: Web server security: Administrator password not set".

The "Administrator" user has the full rights as standard. However, only restricted access rights apply for the standard "SINAMICS" user.

Note Secure passwords

SINAMICS specifies almost no password rules for the assignment of passwords. The only rule is that at least 8 characters are used. You can therefore assign any passwords without restriction. Startdrive does not make any checks for illegal characters or passwords which have already been used. Therefore, as the user, you are responsible for the required password security.

Use a sufficiently long password (10 characters). Use special characters and avoid passwords which you have already used elsewhere.

Please note that if the Windows language settings are changed, errors can occur when subsequently checking the password. If you use language-specific special characters, you must ensure that the same language setting is active on the computer for subsequent entry of the password.



To enable a user and activate a password, proceed as follows:

1. Activate option "Enable SINAMICS user" or "Enable administrator user".

You can also activate both users.

2. Click on "Specify password".

The "Set password" dialog box opens.

Figure 4-47 Setting the password

3. Enter the new password (max. 10 characters) in the "New password" field. Pay attention to upper and lower case.

4. Repeat the password in the "Confirm password" field.

For security reasons, the password entries displayed in the input fields are encrypted.

5. Click "OK" to confirm the input in the password dialog.

If both password entries were identical, the input dialog box is closed. If both entries do not match, the input dialog box remains open and an error message is displayed. At the same time, the two entries in the input dialog are cleared. In this case, you must enter the password again in the two input fields.

The password is queried once when the corresponding web page is subsequently called.

6. Then save the project to accept the settings.



4.6.2 Infeed unit

4.6.2.1 Overview

Infeed units (Line Modules) Line Modules contain the central line infeed for the DC link. Various Line Modules can be selected to address the various application profiles:

● Basic Line Modules (BLM)

● Smart Line Modules (SLM)

● Active Line Modules (ALM)

Basic parameterization of the infeed unit You can carry out basic parameterization for the following infeed data:

● Function modules

● Line data/operating mode

● Enable logic

Calling the screen form 1. In the project navigation, select menu "Infeed_x > Parameter".


2. In the secondary navigation, call menu "Basic parameterization > xxx" (xxx stands for the name of the particular detailed screen form).

The detailed view is updated.



4.6.2.2 Function modules For the infeed, you can activate function modules as required. The function modules that can be activated are listed in the "Function modules" screen form.

Figure 4-48 Function modules for infeed units

The function modules that can be used are presorted in 2 areas:

● Frequently used function modules

● Additional function modules

The display of the function modules that can be activated is dynamic and depends on the selected infeed and the configuration of said infeed.

Activating function modules 1. Activate the required function module by clicking on the option.

Repeat this for all additional function modules that you wish to activate.

2. Save the project to backup the settings.



4.6.2.3 Line data / operating mode You set the most important parameters for the operation of an infeed in the function view of the "Line data / operating mode" mask. The corresponding parameters are displayed depending on the infeed type.

Figure 4-49 Line data/operating mode



Setting the line data and operating mode The selection of the operating mode is displayed if you enter an operating voltage exceeding 415 Vrms (ALM). The parameters are assigned default values when creating the device.

1. Enter a value for the device supply voltage in the "Device supply voltage" field (p0210).

For a value exceeding 415 V, parameters for selecting the operating mode are displayed (only ALM).

The following parameter data is determined automatically from the specified operating voltage (ALM and SLM only) and displayed in the appropriate field:

– "Infeed DC-link voltage setpoint" (p3510)

– "DC-link voltage maximum steady-state" (p0280)

2. To activate the line/DC link identification, in the drop-down list "Supply/DC link identification", select option "On".

If the line supply / DC-link identification has already been performed once, then the value is preset to "OFF" (ALM and SLM only).

Selecting the operating mode The operating mode depends on the motor voltage.

Example: The DC-link voltage must be lower in the USA. For this reason, you can switch the mode of an Active Line Module in order to be able to use it as a Smart Line Module (Smart Mode). You can set the operating mode in this screen form for operating voltages greater than 415 Vrms (ALM).

1. Set one of the two operating modes:

– "Vdc non-regulated (Smart Mode)"

In Smart Mode, the regenerative capability is maintained, but this results in a lower DC-link voltage compared to Active Mode. The DC-link voltage depends on the current supply voltage.

– "Vdc regulated (Active Mode)"

In Active Mode, the DC-link voltage is regulated to a settable setpoint (p3510) to produce a sinusoidal supply current (cos φ = 1). The size of the reactive current is also regulated and can be set specifically.



4.6.2.4 Enable logic You can connect several signal sources for the enables in the function view of the "Enable logic" mask.

Figure 4-50 Enable logic

Procedure 1. Interconnect the signal source via "p0840" for "OFF1 (low active)".

2. Interconnect the 1st signal source via "p0844" for "Instantaneous off (OFF2) signal source 1".

3. Interconnect the 2nd signal source via "p0845" for "Instantaneous off (OFF2) signal source 2".

4. Interconnect the signal source via "p0852" for "Enable operation".



4.6.3 Drive axes

4.6.3.1 Overview

Basic parameterization of the drive axes You can carry out basic parameterization for the following data of the drive axis/axes:

● Function modules

● Control mode

● Important parameters

● Sampling times/pulse frequency

● Enable logic

Calling the screen form 1. In the project navigation, select menu "Drive axis_x > Parameter".


2. In the secondary navigation, call menu "Basic parameterization > xxx" (xxx stands for the name of the particular detailed screen form).




4.6.3.2 Function modules For the drive axis used, you can activate function modules as required. The function modules that can be activated are listed in the "Function modules" screen form.

Figure 4-51 Function modules - for drive axes

The function modules that can be used are presorted in 2 areas:

● Frequently used function modules

● Additional function modules

The display of the function modules that can be activated is dynamic and depends on the selected drive axis and the configuration of this drive axis.

Activating function modules 1. Activate the required function module by clicking on the option.

Repeat this for all additional function modules that you wish to activate.

Note

When the "basic positioner" function module is activated, then the function module "position control" is automatically activated as well.

2. Save the project to backup the settings.



4.6.3.3 Control mode

Control types Speed control (with and without encoder) and torque control are available for servo-controlled drives.

Figure 4-52 Control mode

● Speed control

The speed control of a variable-speed drive has the task of following the speed according to a specified setpoint (reference variable) as precisely as possible and without overshoot.

● Torque control

With torque control, the torque is the reference value and the actual torque value should follow the torque setpoint with as little ripple as possible and without delay.

Selecting the control type 1. Select one of the following control types (p1300) in the drop-down list:

– Speed control with encoder

– Speed control without encoder

– Torque control with encoder

If you have selected a control type with encoder, this encoder is now shown in the diagram.



4.6.3.4 Important parameters

Description You define the basic properties of the drive control using the important parameters.

Figure 4-53 Important parameters

Parameters Designation Description p1121 Ramp-down time Ramp-down time which the drive requires to decelerate from max-

imum speed (p1082) to standstill. p1135 OFF3 ramp-down

time The OFF3 ramp-down time sets the ramp-down time from maxi-mum speed down to standstill for the OFF3 command.



4.6.3.5 Sampling times/pulse frequency As of a limit of 800 Hz, it is recommended that you enter the sampling times and the pulse frequency for the drive. The setting is made using the following screen form:

Figure 4-54 Sampling times/pulse frequency



Setting the defaults The sampling times are preset via parameter p0112.

1. Select one of the following defaults via the drop-down list (p0112):

– [0] Expert

– [1] xLow

– [2] Low

– [3] Standard

– [4] High

– [5] xHigh

The designation of the defaults refer to the desired output frequency and control dynamic response. If a particularly high output frequency or control dynamic response is required, "xHigh" would be the correct default. The selected default affects the following control loops:

– p0115[0]: Sampling times for internal control loops, current controller

– p0115[1]: Sampling times for internal control loops, speed controller

– p0115[2]: Sampling times for internal control loops, flux controller

– p0115[3]: Sampling times for internal control loops, setpoint channel

– p0115[4]: Sampling times for internal control loops, position controller

– p0115[5]: Sampling times for internal control loops, positioning

– p0115[6]: Sampling times for internal control loops, technology controller

The display of the parameter values set for p0115 changes depending on the default setting made.

Note

If the sampling times of the current controller and speed controller are changed (see also p0115), it is recommended that the controller settings are recalculated via p0340 = 4 after the commissioning (p0010 = 0).



Entering the sampling times manually If you have set "Expert" in p0112, you can manually configure each of the following sampling times for the following control loops (p0115):

● p0115[0]: Sampling times for internal control loops, current controller

● p0115[1]: Sampling times for internal control loops, speed controller

● p0115[2]: Sampling times for internal control loops, flux controller

● p0115[3]: Sampling times for internal control loops, setpoint channel

● p0115[4]: Sampling times for internal control loops, position controller

● p0115[5]: Sampling times for internal control loops, positioning

● p0115[6]: Sampling times for internal control loops, technology controller

Note

You cannot set the values arbitrarily. The rules when setting the sampling times are listed in Chapter: Rules on the sampling times (Page 207).

Enter the sampling times for the internal control loops.

Setting the pulse frequency Set the pulse frequency via p1800.



4.6.3.6 Enable logic If telegrams were connected during commissioning, these interconnections are displayed here and an additional specification is not required.

If no telegrams were specified previously, then you must connect the required signal sources via the enable logic.

Figure 4-55 Enable logic



Connecting signal sources 1. Connect the signal source for the "Infeed operation" (p0864) command.

2. Interconnect the signal source for command "OFF1 (low active)" (p0840).

This command corresponds to control word 1 bit 1 (STW1.1) in the PROFIdrive profile.

3. Interconnect the 1st signal source for command "OFF2 (low active) signal source 1 " (p0844).


4. Interconnect the 2nd signal source for command "OFF2 (low active) signal source 2 " (p0845).

5. Interconnect the 1st signal source for the "No quick stop/quick stop (OFF3) signal source 1" command (p0848).


6. Interconnect the 2nd signal source for the "No quick stop/quick stop (OFF3) signal source 2" command (p0849).


7. Interconnect the signal source for the "Enable operation" command (p0852).




4.6.4 Important optimization steps

4.6.4.1 Auto Servo Tuning Using the "Automatic control optimization" function (Auto Servo Tuning = AST), controller data of the speed controller loop (Kp, Tn, current setpoint filter) can be optimized.

Figure 4-56 Automatic controller optimization



The following settings can be made as input parameters for the optimization.

● Measured signals

– Amplitude

Enter the amplitude of the measuring signal excitation as a percentage of the rated torque.

As a rule, the drive can be optimized well with the amplitude presetting. In specific cases, it may be necessary to increase or decrease the amplitude. However, a value that is too high or too low may mean that the control loop cannot be optimally calculated. This can lead to unstable control loops. Therefore, it is always recommended to test the drive after the optimization.

– Offset

Enter the speed offset as a percentage of the rated speed.

The offset compensates for non-linear frictional effects. When setting the offset, ensure that any existing path limitations can be maintained during the measurement.

● Objective of the optimization

The following optimization types are available:

– Robust (e.g. for spindles)

– Moderate (e.g. for speed-controlled axes)

– Strict (e.g. for highly dynamic axes)

The speed controller amplification and the reset time are determined on the basis of the setting which is suitable for the particular application.

Notes and restrictions ● Loss of focus

A loss of focus on the "Auto Servo Tuning" mask automatically results in the measurements being aborted. Make sure that you do not operate any other programs or press any buttons while a servo tuning is running.

● Behavior of the basic positioner during AST

The basic positioner is (temporarily) deactivated internally during the Auto Servo Tuning (AST).

● Optimization with basic settings

You can also optimize with the basic settings of AST. In this case, you do not make any manual settings and start the optimization measurements with the basic settings.

● AST is only possible for single axes

The Auto Servo Tuning can only optimize single axes. In order to perform Auto Servo Tuning, you have to isolate a machine axis from a control context, so that the machine axis can be operated independently of other axes.



Requirements: ● Startdrive is in online mode.

● Operation has been enabled.

● The speed controller is active.

● Operation with encoder has been set.

● No measuring function is active.

Assume control priority You require master control over the selected drive for Auto Servo Tuning. Master control has to be activated before the optimization measurements are started.



2. Read the warning carefully and check the value for the monitoring time.

The monitoring time specifies the time during which the connection from the PC to the drive is monitored cyclically. The minimum value is 1000 ms.

3. Click the "Continue" button to confirm the monitoring time.

The message window closes. The "Auto Servo Tuning" mask then becomes active.

Making the optimization settings You can make the optimization settings before or after activating the master control:

1. Click the "Measured signals" button.

The "Measured signals" dialog opens:

2. Enter the required values in this dialog:

– Amplitude

– Offset

Note

Offset settings

For axes that do not turn endlessly, you are responsible for observing any existing axial stroke limitations during the measurement. The larger the offset, the longer the distance traveled. The axis should be measured within its specific working range.

If required, you can reject the values that have just been recorded and display the old values again via the "Reset values" button.



3. Confirm your entries with "OK".

The "Measured signals" dialog closes.

You can then specify the optimization type.

4. Select the desired optimization type in the "Optimization objective" drop-down list.

– Robust (default setting)

– Moderate

– Tight

Performing optimization measurements After you have made the optimization settings, you can start the measurements.

Note Enabling the "Start" button

Certain operations can prevent the enabling of the "Start" button to start the optimization measurements. The reasons for the prevented enabling are displayed in the messages in the inspector window.

Typical reasons for a prevented enabling are: • The drive is turning • The drive optimization is already active • The trace recorder is not available



1. Click the "Start" button at the top right in the "Auto Servo Tuning" mask.

The following 4 consecutive measurements are now started to automatically optimize the controller:

– Measurement 1 turns the axis at the offset speed in the positive direction, overlaid by measuring signals with a frequency of 4000 Hz.

– Measurement 2 turns the axis at the offset speed in the negative direction, overlaid by measuring signals with a frequency of 4000 Hz.

– Measurement 3 turns the axis at the offset speed in the positive direction, overlaid by measuring signals with a frequency of 500 Hz.

– Measurement 4 turns the axis at the offset speed in the negative direction, overlaid by measuring signals with a frequency of 500 Hz.

The "Progress" field shows the progress of the measurements in %.

The calculated controller data is then listed in the table.

– The "Active value" column displays the current parameter values of the drive.

– The "Calculated value" column displays the optimized parameter values with which the drive is to be operated later.

Figure 4-57 Table of AST values

Note Canceling the measurements

You can cancel active measurements at any time via the "Cancel" button. However, the cancellation is not performed during the measuring process, but rather between two measurements. The cancellation can therefore take some time.



Accepting, checking and saving optimized values in the drive 1. Click the "Accept calculated values" button.

The optimized values are taken into the drive and saved there in the RAM.

In the table, the values from the "Calculated value" column are transferred to the "Active value" column.

2. Perform the stability test for the axis via the "Drive control panel (Page 105)".

– Check the drive at various speeds.

– Test the command and disturbance behaviors of the drive by suitable speed and torque step responses. The step responses can be recorded with the aid of the integrated trace functionality.

3. When the optimized values have been checked and are correct, copy RAM to ROM to permanently save the values.

– If the optimized values are not correct, correct the optimization settings and repeat the optimization measurements.

You can then deactivate the master control.

4. Click the "Deactivate" button at "Master control".

The grayed-out user interface of the Auto Servo Tuning shows that the master control has been deactivated.



4.6.4.2 Stationary/rotating measurement Motor identification (MotID) provides a means of determining motor data (of third-party motors, for example). To improve control properties of the motor, the MotID should be performed. The main motor identification components are the stationary and rotating measurements.

Measurement type

Selecting the measurement type (for experts)

Configuration Entering the configuration data and starting the measurement Status Indicates measurement progress Measurement result

Displays the measurement results of the MotID. The measurement results can be corrected or accepted.

Figure 4-58 Stationary/rotating measurement

Note

If a power on or a warm restart is performed when the motor data identification is selected, then the motor data identification request is lost. A requested motor data identification must be reselected manually after powering up.

Note

As long as a rotating measurement has been selected and is running, you cannot perform any upload, download, RAM to ROM or reset to the factory settings.

NOTICE

Damage to the device as a result of incorrectly selected rated current and/or maximum current values

Incorrect rated current or maximum current data can destroy the motor! • Check that the current values that have been entered are correct.



Preconditions ● Startdrive is in the online mode.

Assume control priority You require master control for the selected drive to perform the motor identification. Master control has to be activated before the optimization measurements are started.



2. Carefully read the warning note and check the value of the monitoring time.

The monitoring time specifies the time that the connection between the PC and drive is cyclically monitored. The minimum value is 1000 ms.

3. Click on "Continue" to confirm the monitoring time.

The message window is closed. The "Stationary/rotating measurement" screen form is then active.

Configuring motor identification The measurements available are displayed in the "Measurement type" setting area. Already when the screen form is opened, a check is made to determine whether a measurement is already active and, if so, it is displayed. If no measurement is selected, a check is made as to which measurement has already been performed and then used as recommendation.

Note Detailed notes regarding the motor identification

In "Chapter 4.12 Motor identification" in the Function Manual Drive Functions, you will find detailed information about motor data identification for various motor types.

Note Expert settings

We only recommend that experienced users manually select the measurement type from the list. This means that when required, individual measurements can be repeated.



After performing the basic parameterization and subsequent download, the "Stationary measurement" measurement type is active as the "Calculation of motor/control parameters" has already been performed.

1. Click on the "1" icon in the "Infeed " area to switch on the infeed unit.

2. To set the drive enable signals, click on "Set" in the "Drive enables" area.

3. Click on the "1" icon in the "Switch on" area to switch on the motor.

4. Click on "Start" in the "Measurement" area to start the measurement.

A status display at the center of the screen form shows how the measurement is progressing (r0047).

The measurement ends automatically, and the message appears that the drive is in the switch-on inhibited state.

After the measurement, the new parameter values are displayed in the results table. You can view and check the new values.

5. Check the values that have been determined to ensure that they are plausible.

6. You can accept the values if they are OK. To do this, click on "Accept values".

5.3.2 Trace function

5.3.2.1 Overview

Definition Using the trace function, you can record the variables of a drive, and then subsequently evaluate the traces. For example, variables include drive parameters or system and user variables of a CPU. The maximum recording time is limited by the memory size.

A maximum of 8 individual channels can be recorded (refer to "Number of individual traces"). The recordings are directly saved to the drive, and when required, can be read out and permanently saved using the engineering system (ES). As a consequence, the trace function is suitable for monitoring high-speed operations. The recorded values are overwritten when the trace function is reactivated.

Active recordings from the axis control panel are displayed as traces in the drive in the "Traces" system folder. In the curve diagram of the axis control panel – or from the PID – recordings can be added to the measurements using the shortcut menu.

The signals to be recorded, the recording time and the trigger conditions are defined in the trace configuration.

Table 5- 18 Trace terminology

Term Icon Meaning Trace configura-tion Settings for the signals to be recorded and the recording conditions

are defined in the trace configuration. (Trace) recording - A trace is being recorded in the device. One recording exists in the

drive for each trace configuration. Each new recording overwrites an existing recording. A recording in the drive is lost after each switch-off/switch-on operation, however, the measurement can be perma-nently saved in the project.

Trace in the de-vice A trace in the drive comprises a trace configuration and optionally,

one recording. Measurement A measurement always comprises one trace configuration and the

associated recording. The recording of a measurement can also be viewed offline.

Measurement on the device (memory card)

Measurements are archived in the folder which are saved in the de-vice (e.g. on the memory card). These measurements are retentive and can only be deleted by the user. The measurements in the device can be imported into the folder via drag and drop and thus be saved in the project as measurement.

Trace configura-tion with the same name in the drive and in the project.

Generally, for a trace configuration in the drive, there is also a trace configuration of the same name in the PG project.



Principle of operation of the trace function

① The signals to be recorded, the recording time and the trigger conditions are defined in the

trace configuration. ② If an online connection exists, you transfer the complete trace configuration from the PG to the

device. ③ If the trace configuration is activated, then the recording is carried out independent of the PG.

The recording is started in the device as soon as the trigger condition has been fulfilled. ④ When you save the measurement, then the measurement is saved to the opened PG project.

Saving the measurement is independent of when the measurement was actually made. ⑤ After the measurement has been saved in the PG, it can be displayed and evaluated there.

From the PG, you can export the measurement data as file - and subsequently import it again.

Figure 5-2 Principle of operation



Data archive The trace toolbar and the curve diagram also allow the trace configuration and the analysis of the recording/measurement to be transferred.

The data archive is schematically shown in the following diagram:

Note Saving the trace configuration and measurement

You save the trace configuration and measurement together with the project in Startdrive.

If you close the project without saving it, then the trace configurations and the measurements transferred into the project are rejected. Until the project is closed, the trace can be closed and re-opened without any data being lost.

Number of traces An unlimited number of recordings cannot be made in Startdrive for SINAMICS S120 as a result of the restricted memory capacity:

● 2 traces can be recorded for each drive.

● A maximum of 8 signals can be recorded for each trace recording.

– 1...4 signals for a minimum recording cycle of 0.125 ms

– 5...8 signals for a minimum recording cycle of 4.0 ms



Additional information The most important functions and settings for the trace function are explained in the following chapters. Further, you can obtain detailed information about the trace function in the Startdrive online help.

You can find an overview of the most important user interface elements of the trace function in Chapter "User interface - trace function (Page 40)".

5.3.2.2 Creating or calling a trace Traces in the form of trace configurations can be created in the project navigation. Trace configurations that have been saved can be called and modified.

The following instructions describe how you create a trace configuration under the system folder "Traces" - and how you display a trace configuration that has been saved.

Requirement A drive has been configured that supports the trace function.

Creating a new trace Proceed as follows to create a trace:

1. Double-click the "Add new trace" entry.

A new empty trace configuration is created for the drive. You must then configure the details (see Chapter "Configuring a trace (Page 160)").

Figure 5-3 Calling a new trace



Displaying a saved trace configuration or an appropriate curve diagram Proceed as follows to display a saved trace configuration:

1. In the project navigation, double-click on the appropriate icon ( offline/ online) the trace configuration, a trace in the drive or a measurement.

The "Configuration" or "Diagram" tab is opened in the working area.

Figure 5-4 Calling the trace dialog

2. If necessary, click on the "Configuration" tab to display it.

- or -

3. If, instead of the trace configuration, you wish to display the curve diagram, then click on the "Diagram" tab.



5.3.2.3 Configuring a trace With a double-click an (empty) trace configuration is created and selected in the project navigation. Configuring the trace comprises 2 subareas:

● Selecting and configuring signals

● Configuring recording conditions

Note Durability of trace data

The trace configuration is persistently saved. The data is kept even when switching off and switching on.

Trace signals that have been recorded are not automatically saved, and are therefore lost when the system is switched off. As a consequence, trace recordings can be manually saved in the project (see Chapter "Saving measurements in the project (Page 165)") - or exported in a file structure (see Chapter "Exporting and importing measurements (Page 166)").

Selecting and configuring signals Proceed as follows to configure signals that are to be recorded:

1. Click on the first empty cell in the "Name" column.

Figure 5-5 Configuring trace signals

2. Select a signal. The following options are available:

– In the "Name" column, click on the icon and select a parameter.

– Enter the parameter name in the "Name" column - or part of the name in the cell. The field shows the possible parameters in the drop-down list.

– The "Address" column shows the parameter number. A color is recommended in the "Color" column.

3. If you wish to assign another color to the signal, from the drop-down list select another color in the "Color" column.



4. Click in the "Comment" column and enter a comment for the signal.

Initially the parameter name is shown after inserting a parameter. This can be changed.

5. Repeat the procedure from step 1 until all of the signals to be recorded have been entered into the table.

You can configure a maximum of 8 signals for each trace.

Configuring recording conditions Select the required trigger condition in the "trigger mode" field in the drop-down list.

Figure 5-6 Configuring trace recording conditions

Configuring the recording conditions depends on the selected trigger condition:

Trigger condition: Start recording immediately

1. Enter the recording time under "Recording duration". The possible total duration is displayed to the right.

Activate the option "Recording duration = max. recording duration" if you wish to set the total duration.

2. Enter a recording cycle under "Cycle" The possible cycle settings depend on the number of signals.



Trigger condition: Trigger on variable

1. Select a trigger parameter from the "Trigger variable" field. The following options are available:

– Click on the icon for the trigger parameter and select a parameter.

– Enter the name or the parameter number into the input field for the trigger parameter.

After setting the trigger parameter, generally an additional "Event" drop-down list is displayed. The following settings are possible here:

Rising signal The recording starts if the falling value of the trigger reaches or exceeds the configured value. After activating the trace, at least 2 cycles are required in order to identify the signal edge.

Falling signal The recording starts if the falling value of the trigger reaches or falls below the configured value. After activating the trace, at least 2 cycles are required in order to identify the signal edge.

Within the tolerance band

Recording starts as soon as the value of the trigger lies within the configured value range.

Outside the tolerance band

Recording starts as soon as the value of the trigger lies outside the config-ured value range.

2. Select the required event in the "Event" drop-down list.

Depending on the selected event, additional settings may be required (input fields to the right of the curve diagram). Make these specific event settings.

3. In order to record a time period before the trigger event, enter a value greater than 0 in the input field for the pre-trigger.

Diagnostics 5.4 Fault and alarm messages


5.4 Fault and alarm messages

5.4.1 General information about faults and alarms The errors and states detected by the individual components of the drive system are indicated by messages.

The messages are categorized into faults and alarms.

Note

The individual faults and alarms are described in Chapter "Faults and alarms" in the SINAMICS S120/S150 List Manual. Function diagrams for the fault buffer, alarm buffer, fault trigger and fault configuration are also contained in the Section "Function diagrams" - "Faults and alarms".

Properties of faults and alarms ● Faults (code F01234)

– Are identified by Fxxxxx.

– Can lead to a fault reaction.

– Must be acknowledged once the cause has been remedied.

– Status via Control Unit and LED RDY.

– Status via PROFIdrive status signal ZSW1.3 (fault active).

– Entry in the fault buffer.

● Alarms (code A56789)

– Are identified by Axxxxx.

– Have no further effect on the drive.

– The alarms are automatically reset once the cause has been remedied. No acknowledgement is required.

– Status via PROFIdrive status signal ZSW1.7 (alarm active).

– Entry in the alarm buffer.

● General properties of faults and alarms

– Can be configured (e.g. change fault to alarm, fault reaction).

– Triggering on selected messages possible.

– Initiation of messages possible via an external signal.

– Contains the component number for identifying the SINAMICS component involved

– Contains diagnostic information on the message involved



Acknowledging faults The list of faults and alarms specifies how each fault is acknowledged after the cause has been remedied.

● Acknowledgement of faults by "POWER ON"

– Switch the drive on/off (POWER ON)

– Press the RESET button on the Control Unit

● Acknowledgement of faults by "IMMEDIATE"

– Via a PROFIdrive control signal:

STW1.7 (reset fault memory): 0/1 edge

Set STW1.0 (ON/OFF1) = "0" and "1"

– Via external input signal

Binector input and interconnection with digital input

p2103 = "Requested signal source"



Across all of the drive objects (DO) of a Control Unit


● Acknowledge faults with "PULSE INHIBIT"

– The fault can only be acknowledged with a pulse inhibit (r0899.11 = 0).

– The same possibilities are available for acknowledging as described under acknowledge IMMEDIATELY.

Note

The drive can only resume operation after all active faults have been acknowledged.

5.4.2 Buffer for faults and alarms

Note

A fault and alarm buffer is provided for each drive. The drive and device-specific messages are entered in these buffers.

The contents of the fault buffer are saved to non-volatile memory when the Control Unit is powered down, i.e. the fault buffer history is still available when the unit is powered up again.



Note

The entry in the fault/alarm buffer is made after a delay. For this reason, the fault/alarm buffer should not be read until a change in the buffer is also recognized (r0944, r2121) after "Fault active"/"Alarm active" is output.

Fault buffer Faults which occur are entered in the fault buffer as follows:

Figure 5-12 Structure of the fault buffer



Properties of the fault buffer:

● A new fault incident encompasses one or more faults and is entered in "Current fault incident".

● The entries are arranged in the buffer according to the time at which they occurred.

● If a new fault incident occurs, the fault buffer is reorganized. The history is recorded in "Acknowledged fault incident" 1 to 7.

● If the cause of at least one fault in "Current fault incident" is remedied and acknowledged, the fault buffer is reorganized. Faults that have not been remedied remain in "Current fault incident".

● If "Current fault incident" contains eight faults and a new fault occurs, the fault in the parameters in index 7 is overwritten by the new fault.

● r0944 is incremented each time the fault buffer changes.

● A fault value (r0949) can be output for a fault. The fault value is used to diagnose the fault more accurately; please refer to the fault description for details of the meaning.

Clear fault buffer

● Delete fault buffer for all drive objects: p2147 = 1 --> p2147 = 0 is automatically set after execution.

● Delete fault buffer for a specific drive object: p0952 = 0 --> The parameter belongs to the specified drive object.

The fault buffer contents are automatically deleted for the following events:

● Restore factory setting (p0009 = 30 and p0976 = 1).

● Change drive object type

● Upgrade firmware to later version.



Alarm buffer, alarm history An alarm in the alarm buffer comprises the alarm code, the alarm value and the alarm time (received, resolved). The alarm history occupies the last indices ([8...63]) of the parameter.

Figure 5-13 Structure of alarm buffer

Alarms that occur are entered in the alarm buffer as follows:

A maximum of 64 alarms are displayed in the alarm buffer:

● Index 0 ... 6: The first 7 alarms are displayed.

● Index 7: The most recent alarm is displayed.

A maximum of 56 alarms are displayed in the alarm history:

● Index 8: The most recent alarm is displayed.

● Index 9 .. 63: The first 55 alarms are displayed.



Properties of the alarm buffer/alarm history:

● The alarms in the alarm buffer are arranged from 7 to 0 according to the time that they occurred. In the alarm history, this is from 8 to 63.

● If 8 alarms have been entered into the alarm buffer, and a new alarm is received, then the alarms that have been resolved are transferred into the alarm history.

● r2121 is incremented each time the alarm buffer changes.

● An alarm value (r2124) can be output for an alarm. The alarm value is used to diagnose the alarm more accurately; please refer to the alarm description for details of the meaning.

Deleting the alarm buffer, index [0...7]:

● The alarm buffer index [0...7] is reset as follows: p2111 = 0

5.4.3 Configuring messages The properties of the faults and alarms in the drive system are permanently defined.

For several messages, in a specific scope defined by the drive system, the properties can be changed as follows: Change message type (example) Select message Set message type p2118[5] = 1001 p2119[5] = 1: Fault (F) = 2: Alarm (A) = 3: No message (N) Change fault reaction (example) Select message Set fault response p2100[3] = 1002 p2101[3] = 0: None = 1: OFF1 = 2: OFF2 = 3: OFF3 = 4: STOP1 (available soon) = 5: STOP2 = 6: IASC/DC brake

Internal armature short-circuit braking or DC brake

= 7: ENCODER (p0491) Change acknowledgement (example) Select message Set acknowledgement p2126[4] = 1003 p2127[4] = 1: POWER ON = 2: IMMEDIATELY = 3: PULSE INHIBIT



19 message types per drive object can be changed.

Note

If BICO interconnections exist between drive objects, all interconnected objects must be configured.

Example:

The TM31 has BICO interconnections with drive 1 and 2 and F35207 is to be reconfigured as an alarm. • p2118[n] = 35207 and p2119[n] = 2 • These settings are required for for TM31, drive 1 and drive 2.

Note

Only those messages which are listed in the indexed parameters can be changed as desired. All other message settings retain their factory settings or are reset to the factory settings.

Examples: • In the case of messages listed via p2128[0...19], the message type can be changed. The

factory setting is set for all other messages. • The fault response of fault F12345 has been changed via p2100[n]. The factory settings

should be restored (p2100[n] = 0).

Triggering on messages (example) Select message Trigger signal p2128[0] = 1001 BO: r2129.0 or p2128[1] = 1002 BO: r2129.1

Note

The value from CO: r2129 can be used as group trigger.

CO: r2129 = 0 No selected message has been output.

CO: r2129 > 0 Group trigger. At least one selected message has been output. The individual binector outputs BO: r2129 should be investigated.



External triggering messages If the appropriate binector input is interconnected with an input signal, fault 1, 2 or 3 or alarm 1, 2 or 3 can be triggered via an external input signal.

Once an external fault (1 to 3) has been triggered on the Control Unit drive object, this fault is also present on all associated drive objects. If one of these external faults is triggered on a different drive object, it is only present on that particular drive object. BI: p2106 ––> External fault 1 ––> F07860(A) BI: p2107 ––> External fault 2 ––> F07861(A) BI: p2108 ––> External fault 3 ––> F07862(A) BI: p2112 ––> External alarm 1 ––> A07850(F) BI: p2116 ––> External alarm 2 ––> A07851(F) BI: p2117 ––> External alarm 3 ––> A07852(F)

Note

An external fault or alarm is triggered by a 1/0 signal.

An external fault and alarm do not usually mean that an internal drive message has been generated. The cause of an external fault and warning should, therefore, be remedied outside the drive.

5.4.4 Propagation of faults In the case of faults that are, for example, triggered by the Control Unit or a Terminal Module, central functions of the drive are also often affected. As a result of propagation, faults that are triggered by one drive object are therefore transferred to other drive objects.

This response also applies to the faults that are set in a DCC chart on the Control Unit using a DCC block.



There are the following types of propagation:

● BICO

The fault is propagated to all active drive objects with closed-loop control functions (infeed, drive) to which there is a BICO interconnection.

● DRIVE

The fault is propagated to all active drive objects with closed-loop control functions.

● GLOBAL

The fault is propagated to all active drive objects.

● LOCAL

The behavior of this propagation type is dependent on parameter p3116.

– With binector input p3116 = 0 (factory setting) the following applies: The fault is propagated to the first active drive object with closed-loop control functions.

– With binector input p3116 = 1 signal, the following applies: The fault is not propagated.

5.4.5 Alarm classes

The function permits higher-level control (SIMATIC, SIMOTION, SINUMERIK, etc.) to have different control reactions to alarm messages from the drive.

The new statuses act as alarms for the drive, therefore there is NO immediate reaction from the drive (like for the former level "alarm").

Information on alarm classes are described in status word ZSW2 at bit positions bit 5/6 (for SINAMICS) or bit 11/12 (SIMODRIVE 611) (see also "ZSW2" in Chapter "Cyclic communication" for PROFIdrive communication in the SINAMICS S120 Function Manual Drive Functions).

ZSW2: Valid for SINAMICS Interface Mode p2038 = 0 (function diagram 2454)

Bit 5 - 6 Alarm classes alarms

= 0: Alarm (former alarm level)

= 1: Alarm class A alarms

= 2: Alarm class B alarms

= 3: Alarm class C alarms



ZSW2: Valid for SIMODRIVE 611 Interface Mode p2038 = 1 (function diagram 2453)

Bit 11 - 12 Alarm classes alarms

= 0: Alarm (former alarm level)

= 1: Alarm class A alarms

= 2: Alarm class B alarms

= 3: Alarm class C alarms

These attributes for differentiating the alarms are assigned to the appropriate alarm numbers. The reaction to the existing alarm classes in the alarm is defined by the user program in the higher-level control.

Explanations of the alarm classes

● Alarm class A: Drive operation currently not limited

– E.g. alarm when measurement systems inactive

– No limitation on current movement

– Prevent possible switching to the defective measuring system

● Alarm class B: Time-limited operation

– E.g. prewarning temperature: Without further action the drive may need to be switched off

– After a timer stage -> additional fault

– After exceeding a switch-off threshold -> additional fault

● Alarm class C: Functionally limited operation

– E.g. reduced voltage/current/torque/speed limits (i2t)

– E.g. continue with reduced accuracy / resolution

– E.g. continue without encoder

Appendix A.4 System rules, sampling times and DRIVE-CLiQ wiring


A.4 System rules, sampling times and DRIVE-CLiQ wiring

A.4.1 Overview of system limits and system utilization The number and type of controlled axes, infeeds and Terminal Modules as well as the additionally activated functions can be scaled by configuring the firmware.

The software and control functions available in the system are executed cyclically with different sampling times (p0115, p0799, p4099). These sampling times are automatically pre-assigned when configuring the drive (see Section Default setting (Page 208)). They can be subsequently adapted by the user.

The number of controllable drives, infeeds and Terminal Modules that can be operated with the selected Control Unit depends on some system rules, the set sampling times, the control mode and the activated additional functions.

There are also still dependencies and rules for the components used and the selected DRIVE-CLiQ wiring.

The existing rules are described in greater detail in the following sub-sections. After this there are notes on the number of controllable drives and some example topologies.

The following standard quantity structures are operable with standard clock cycles:

● 12 V/f control axes with 500 µs

● 6 vector axes with 500 µs

● 6 servo axes with 125 μs

● 3 vector axes with 250 μs

● 3 servo axes with 62.5 μs

● 1 servo axis with 31.25 μs (single-axis module)

Consequently, the conversion of an axis from 125 µs to 62.5 µs normally leads to the loss of an axis. This rule can also be used for the clock-cycle mixing to achieve a general estimate of the quantity structure.

Especially for demanding configurations, drives with high dynamic response or a large number of axes with additional utilization of special functions for example, a check using the SIZER engineering tool is recommended. The SIZER engineering tool calculates the feasibility of the project.

Finally, the utilization flag in r9976 indicates whether a topology is operable. If the utilization exceeds 100%, this is indicated with fault F01054. In this case, one or more axes must be dispensed with or the function scope reduced.



A.4.2 System rules A maximum of 24 drive objects (DOs) can be connected to one Control Unit.

Control Units

● The CU320-2 Control Unit is a multi-axis control module for operating Infeed Modules and Motor Modules in the booksize format. Sensor Modules can also be connected.

Motor Modules/control modes

For the CU320-2 Control Unit the following applies:

● The CU320-2 Control Unit is a multi-axis control module for operating Motor Modules in the booksize format.

● For multi-axis modules, each axis counts individually (one Double Motor Module = two Motor Modules).

● Mixed operation of control types:

The following are permitted:

– Mixed operation of servo control and V/f control.

The following applies when connecting Motor Modules in parallel:

● It is not permissible to connect Motor Modules in parallel.

Line Modules

For the CU320-2 Control Unit the following applies:

● Only one drive object of the Smart Line Module (SLM), Basic Line Module (BLM) and Active Line Module (ALM) types is permitted in each case.

● Mixed operation of an Active Line Module with a Smart Line Module (SLM) or with a Basic Line Module (BLM) is not permitted.

● Mixed operation of a drive object of the Smart Line Module (SLM) type with a drive object of the Basic Line Module (BLM) type is permitted.

● Two further Voltage Sensing Modules can be operated with the "network transformer" function module for Active Line Modules (ALM).

The following applies to parallel connection of Line Modules:

● Parallel connection is permitted for Infeed Modules in the chassis format and for Active Line Modules (ALM) from the 120 kW performance class for the booksize format.

● A maximum of four Infeed Modules are permitted within a parallel connection.

● In booksize format, a maximum of two Active Line Modules (ALM) from the 120 kW performance class are permitted within a parallel connection.

● The operation of Infeed Modules with different performance values is not permitted within a parallel connection.



● An active Voltage Sensing Module (VSM) must be assigned to each Active Line Module (ALM) in the parallel connection. A violation of this rule causes alarm F05061 to be issued.

● When using Smart Line Modules (SLM) an active Voltage Sensing Module (VSM) must be assigned to at least one Smart Line Module (SLM) in the parallel connection. A violation of this rule causes fault F05061 to be issued.

A.4.3 Rules on the sampling times

A.4.3.1 Rules when setting the sampling times The following rules apply when setting the sampling times:

General rules

● There are a maximum 2 possible cycle levels on the Control Unit, where the lowest sampling times are not integer multiples with respect to one another. All sampling times set must be an integer multiple of the smallest sampling time from one of these two cycle levels.

This setting is permitted. Additional sampling times must be integer multiples of 250 µs or 455 µs.

Terminal Board, Control Unit

● For the digital and analog inputs/outputs of these components the minimum sampling time (p0799, p4099, p0115) set must be 125 µs.

Pulse frequencies and current controller sampling times:

● The current controller sampling times of the drives and infeeds must be synchronous to the set pulse frequency of the power unit (see also p1800 in the SINAMICS S120/S150 Lists Manual). Any increase in the pulse frequency requires a reduction in the sampling times and increases the derating in the power unit.

Line Modules

● For Active Line Modules (ALM) and Smart Line Modules (SLM) in booksize format the only current controller sampling time which can be set is 125 µs or 250 µs.

● For Basic Line Modules (BLM), the only current controller sampling time that can be set is 250 µs (booksize format).

Motor Modules

● For Single Motor Modules in booksize format, a current controller sampling time of minimum 31.25 µs can be set (31.25 µs ≤ p0115[0] ≤ 500 µs).

● For Double Motor Modules in booksize format, a current controller sampling time of minimum 62.5 µs can be set (62.5 µs ≤ p0115[0] ≤ 500 µs).



Servo control

● A current controller sampling time between 31.25 µs and 250 µs can be set for servo drives (31.25 µs ≤ p0115[0] ≤ 250 µs).

● The fastest sampling time of a drive object in the servo control mode is obtained as follows:

– Ti = 31.25 µs: Exactly one drive object in servo control

– Ti = 62.5 µs: Max. 3 drive objects in servo control

– Ti = 125 µs: Max. 6 drive objects in servo control

Safety functions

● Only Single Motor Modules are permitted for servo axes with a current controller cycle TIReg ≤ 62.5 μs with the "Safety sensorless" functionality.

A.4.3.2 Default settings for the sampling times The sampling times of the functions are pre-assigned automatically when the drive is configured.

These default settings are based on the selected mode (vector/servo control) and the activated functions.

If isochronous mode is to be possible with a controller, before the automatic configuration, parameter p0092 must be set to "1" in order that the sampling times are appropriately preset. If isochronous operation is not possible due to incorrect sampling time settings, an appropriate message will be output (A01223, A01224).

If the application requires a change of the preset sampling times, they can be set using parameters p0112 and p0113 or directly using p0115, p0799 and p4099.

Note Recommendation

Only appropriately qualified experts should change the sampling times set as default values.



When commissioning for the first time, the current controller sampling times (p0115[0]) are automatically preset with factory setting values:

Table A- 1 Factory settings

Construction type Number p0112 p0115[0] p1800 Active Infeed Booksize 1 2 (Low) 250 µs - Smart Infeed Booksize 1 2 (Low) 250 µs - Basic Infeed Booksize 1 4 (High) 250 µs - SERVO Booksize 1 ... 6 3 (Standard) 125 µs 4 kHz

A.4.3.3 Setting the pulse frequency The sampling times for the following functions are set by selecting the appropriate values in p0112 for the closed-loop control configuration in µs and are copied to p0115[0...6] depending on the performance levels required:

● Current controller (p0115[0])

● Speed controller (p0115[1])

● Flux controller (p0115[2])

● Setpoint channel (p0115[3])

● Position controller (p0115[4])

● Positioner (p0115[5])

● Technology controller (p0115[6])

The performance levels range from xLow to xHigh. Details of how to set the sampling times are given in the SINAMICS S120/S150 List Manual.



Setting the pulse frequency using the commissioning tool in online operation Enter the minimum pulse frequency in p0113. For isochronous operation (p0092 = 1), you can only set the parameter so that a resulting current controller cycle with an integer multiple of 125 μs is obtained. The required pulse frequency can be set after commissioning (p0009 = p0010 = 0) in p1800.

Table A- 2 Pulse frequency for isochronous operation

Control type p0115[0] Current controller cycle / µs

p0113 Pulse frequency / kHz

Servo control 250 2 125 4

When commissioning is exited (p0009 = p0010 = 0), the effective pulse frequency (p1800) is appropriately pre-assigned, depending on p0113, and can be subsequently modified.

A.4.3.4 Setting sampling times If sampling times are required which cannot be set using p0112 > 1, you can directly set the sampling times in expert mode using p0115.

If p0115 is changed online, then the values of higher indices are automatically adapted.

Note

Do not change the sampling times when the commissioning tool is in the offline mode, because in this case if there is an incorrect parameterization, the project download is canceled.

Making and checking settings 1. Activate in the expert list of the Control Unit the drive base configuration with p0009 = 3.

2. In the expert list of the drive object, activate the expert mode with p0112 = 0.

3. Specify the current controller cycle for the drive object as follows: p0115[0] = current controller cycle. For the current controller cycle, only use values from "Number of drives depending on the control mode and cycle times (Page 219)".

4. Close in the expert list of the Control Unit the cycle setting with p0009 = 0.

A startup is then performed. The speed controller cycle and flux controller cycle are adapted automatically so that they remain an integer multiple of the current controller cycle.

5. Then check the maximum speed p1082, the set pulse frequency p1800 and start an automatic calculation of the controller data (p0340 = 4).

A.4.4 Rules for wiring with DRIVE-CLiQ Rules apply for wiring components with DRIVE-CLiQ. A distinction is made between binding DRIVE-CLiQ rules, which must be unconditionally observed and recommended rules, which should then be maintained so that the topology, generated offline in the commissioning tool, no longer has to be changed.

The maximum number of DRIVE-CLiQ components and the possible wiring type depend on the following factors:

● The binding DRIVE-CLiQ wiring rules

● The number and type of activated drives and functions on the Control Unit in question

● The computing power of the Control Unit in question

● The set processing and communication cycles

Below you will find the binding wiring rules and some other recommendations as well as a few sample topologies for DRIVE-CLiQ wiring.



The components used in these examples can be removed, replaced with others or supplemented. If components are replaced by another type or additional components are added, then the SIZER configuring tool should be used to check this topology.

If the actual topology does not match the topology created offline using the commissioning tool, the offline topology must be changed accordingly before it is downloaded.

A.4.4.1 Binding DRIVE-CLiQ interconnection rules The following generally binding DRIVE-CLiQ rules must be observed to ensure safe operation of the drive.

● Only one Control Unit is permitted in the role of DRIVE-CLiQ master in a DRIVE-CLiQ topology.

● A maximum of 14 DRIVE-CLiQ nodes can be connected to a Control Unit port on a DRIVE-CLiQ line.

Note

One Double Motor Module corresponds to 2 DRIVE-CLiQ nodes. This also applies to Double Motor Modules, at which just one drive is configured.

● Ring wiring or double wiring of components is not permitted.

● Drive topologies with DRIVE-CLiQ components that are not supported (by the type and the firmware version of the Control Unit) are not permitted.

● The sampling times (p0115[0] and p4099) of all components that are connected to a DRIVE-CLiQ line must be divisible by one another with an integer result, or all the sampling times set for the components must be an integer multiple of a common "base cycle".

– Example 1: A Line Module with 250 µs and a Motor Module with 125 µs can be operated together on a DRIVE-CLiQ line ("base cycle": 125 µs)

– Example 2: A Line Module with 250 µs and a Motor Module with 375 µs can be operated together on a DRIVE-CLiQ line ("base cycle": 125 µs)

If the current controller sampling time Ti at one drive object has to be changed in a sampling time that does not match the other drive objects in the DRIVE-CLiQ line, the following solutions are available:

– Insert the modified drive object into a separate DRIVE-CLiQ line. Note here that a total of 2 cycle levels are permissible on a Control Unit.

– Modify the current controller sampling times and/or the sampling times of the inputs/outputs of the other drive objects similarly so they match the modified sampling time again.



Rules and instructions for avoiding overloads

In general any overload must be avoided of a DRIVE-CLiQ line and the components connected to it through too many components with small sampling times. The following rules and instruction apply for this:

● A DRIVE-CLiQ line with components with a sampling time of Ti = 31.25 μs may only be connected with components that are permitted for this sampling time. The following components are permitted:

– Single Motor Modules in booksize format

– Sensor Modules SMC20, SMI20, SMI24, SME20, SME25, SME120 and SME125

– High-frequency damping modules (HF damping modules)

– Additional DRIVE-CLiQ lines must be used for additional components.

● With current controller sampling times 31.25 µs and 62.5 µs the axes to the DRIVE-CLiQ connections must be distributed as follows:

– DRIVE-CLiQ socket X100: Infeed, axes 2, 4, 6, ...

– DRIVE-CLiQ socket X101: Axes 1, 3, 5, ...

● For a current controller cycle of 31.25 μs, a filter module should be directly connected to a DRIVE-CLiQ socket of the Control Unit.

● A maximum of 4 Motor Modules with Safety Extended Functions may be operated on one DRIVE-CLiQ line (for current controller cycle TIReg = 125 μs on all axes). No further DRIVE-CLiQ components other than a Line Module and Sensor Modules may be connected to this DRIVE-CLiQ line.

Exception: For SINAMICS S120M, a maximum of 6 S120M with Safety Extended Functions can be operated on one DRIVE-CLiQ line.

The following applies for the CU Link and the CX32 and NX10/NX15 Control Units:

● In a topology with CU Link, the SINUMERIK NCU is DRIVE-CLiQ master for the NX and the SIMOTION D4xx is master for the CX32.

● The CX32 or NX10/NX15 Control Units are master for the subordinate components.

● The connection to the Control Unit is obtained from the PROFIBUS address of the CX/NX (10 → X100, 11 → X101, 12 → X102, 13 → X103, 14 → X104, 15 → X105).

● It is not permitted to combine SIMOTION Master Control Units and SINUMERIK Slave Control Units.

● It is not permitted to combine SINUMERIK Master Control Units and SIMOTION Slave Control Units.



A.4.4.2 Recommended interconnection rules The following recommended rules should be observed for the DRIVE-CLiQ wiring:

General

● The following applies to all DRIVE-CLiQ components with the exception of the Control Unit: The DRIVE-CLiQ sockets Xx00 are DRIVE-CLiQ inputs (Uplink), the other DRIVE-CLiQ sockets are outputs (Downlink).

– The DRIVE-CLiQ cable from the Control Unit should be connected to DRIVE-CLiQ socket X200 on the first booksize power unit.

– The DRIVE-CLiQ connections between the power units should each be connected from the DRIVE-CLiQ sockets X201 to X200 and/or X401 to X400 on the follow-on component.

Line Modules

● An individual Line Module should be connected directly to the Control Unit (recommended DRIVE-CLiQ socket: X100).

– Several Line Modules should be connected in series.

Motor Modules

● No more than 6 Motor Modules should be connected to a DRIVE-CLiQ line on the Control Unit (including with vector, V/f control).

● Motor Modules should be connected directly to the Control Unit in vector control.

– If the DRIVE-CLiQ socket X100 is already assigned to a Line Module, the DRIVE-CLiQ socket X101 should be used.

– Several Motor Modules should be connected in a line.

– If there is already a Line Module present at X100, the Motor Module should be connected in line to socket X201 of the Line Module.


● In servo control Motor Modules should be connected to a DRIVE-CLiQ line together with the Line Module.


– If there is already a Line Module present, the first Motor Module should be connected in line to socket X201 of the Line Module.

– If there is no Line Module present, the first Motor Module should be connected directly to the Control Unit (recommended DRIVE-CLiQ socket: X100).

● If the Motor Modules need to be distributed across two DRIVE-CLiQ lines (e.g. on account of the specified current controller sampling times), the next higher DRIVE-CLiQ socket on the Control Unit should be used.

● Only one end node should be connected to free DRIVE-CLiQ sockets within a DRIVE-CLiQ line (e.g. Motor Modules wired in a line), for example, one Sensor Module, without routing to additional components.



Encoder, Sensor Modules

● The motor encoder or Sensor Module should be connected to the associated Motor Module.

Connecting the motor encoder via DRIVE-CLiQ:

– Single Motor Module Booksize to terminal X202

– Double Motor Module Booksize motor X1 to terminal X202 and motor X2 to terminal X203

● If possible, Sensor Modules of direct measuring systems should not be connected to the DRIVE-CLiQ line of Motor Modules, but rather to free DRIVE-CLiQ sockets of the Control Unit.

Note

This restriction does not apply to star-type connections for the Motor Modules.

Voltage Sensing Modules

● The Voltage Sensing Module (VSM) should be connected to the DRIVE-CLiQ socket X202 (booksize format) of the associated Line Module/Motor Module.

– If the DRIVE-CLiQ socket X202/X402 is not available, a free DRIVE-CLiQ socket on the Line Module/Motor Module should be selected.

Figure A-1 Example of a topology with VSM for booksize components

Terminal Modules

● Terminal Modules should be connected to DRIVE-CLiQ socket X103 of the Control Unit in series.

● If possible, Terminal Modules should not be connected to the DRIVE-CLiQ line of Motor Modules, but rather to free DRIVE-CLiQ sockets of the Control Unit.

Note

This restriction does not apply to star-type connections for the Motor Modules.



A.4.4.3 Modular machine concept: Offline correction of the reference topology The topology is based on a modular machine concept. The machine concept is created offline in the Startdrive commissioning tool in the maximum version as reference topology.

The maximum version is the maximum expansion of a particular machine type. In the maximum version, all the machine components that can be used are pre-configured in the reference topology.

Deactivating components / handling non-existent components In a lower expansion stage of the machine, you must mark drive objects and encoders that are not used in the Startdrive topology. To do this, for the corresponding drive objects and encoder, set parameter p0105 or p0145 = 2 (deactivate component and does not exist). Components set to the value "2" in a project generated offline must never be inserted in the actual topology at all.

If a component fails, the sub-topology can also be used to allow a machine to continue to operate until the spare part is available. In this case, however, no BICO source must be interconnected from this drive object to other drive objects.

Example of a sub-topology The starting point is a machine created offline in the Startdrive commissioning tool. "Drive 1" was not implemented for this machine.

1. You can remove drive object "Drive 1" "offline" from the reference topology using p0105 = 2.

2. Change over the DRIVE-CLiQ cable from the Control Unit directly to "Drive 2".



3. Transfer the project with "Download to drive unit".

4. Then execute a "Copy RAM to ROM".

Figure A-2 Example of a sub-topology



Note Incorrect SI status display

If a drive in a Safety Integrated drive line-up is deactivated using p0105, then r9774 is not correctly output. The signals of a deactivated drive are no longer updated.

Activating/deactivating components Drive objects can be activated/deactivated using parameter p0105 and encoders with p0145[0...n] in the Expert list in the same way. If a component is not required at certain times, then for the component, change parameter p0105 or p0145 from "1" to "0". The deactivated components remain inserted, however, they are deactivated. Errors are not displayed from deactivated components.

• r0106 Drive object active/inactive

A.4.5 Notes on the number of controllable drives

A.4.5.1 Number of drives depending on the control mode and cycle times The number of axes that can be operated with a Control Unit depends on the cycle times and the control mode. The number of usable axes and the associated cycle times for each control type are listed below. The other available remaining computation times are available for options (e.g. DCC).

Cycle times for servo control This following table lists the number of axes that can be operated with a Control Unit in the servo control mode. The number of axes is also dependent on the cycle times of the controller:

31.251) 31.251) 1 1 [250 μs] 1 / 1 3 [2000 μs] 1) At the cycle level 31.25 µs, you can also create the following objects:

Sensor Module External (SME) and SMC20 that support the current firmware and hardware. These can be recognized from the Article end number ... 3. No additional axis can be operated in this cycle level.

Adjustable pulse frequencies and current controller cycles for servo control The pulse frequencies that can be set depending on the selected current controller cycle are shown in r0114. Because of the integrating current measurement, pulse frequencies that are a multiple of half the current controller sampling frequency should be preferred. Otherwise, the current is not measured synchronous to the pulse frequency and a fluctuating actual current value results. This causes disturbance in the control circuits and higher losses in the motor (such as pulse frequency 5.333 kHz and current controller cycle 62.5 μs).



The recommended settings are marked with XX in the Table; all other possible settings are marked with X.
