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.
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 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 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).
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 a special risk in the immediate vicinity of these
devices/systems.
• Ensure that the persons involved are the necessary distance away (minimum 2 m).
NOTICE

WARNING
Danger to life as a result of hazardous voltages when connecting an unsuitable power
supply
Death or serious injury can result when live parts are touched in the event of a fault.
• For all connections and terminals of the electronic boards, only use power supplies that
provide PELV (Protective Extra Low Voltage) or SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage)
output voltages.
Note
If your application requires UL certification, please note that the power supply of the digital
output must comply with specific specifications. See also Section: Technical data
(Page 303).
NOTICE
Damage to the inverter when using long signal cables
Using long cables at the inverter's digital inputs and 24 V power supply can lead to
overvoltage during switching operations. Overvoltages can damage the inverter.
• If you use cables of more than 30 m at the digital inputs and 24 V power supply, connect
an overvoltage protection element between the terminal and the associated reference
potential.
We recommend using the Weidmüller overvoltage protection terminal with designation
MCZ OVP TAZ DIODE 24VDC.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to connect the terminal strips:
1. Use a cable with the recommended cross-section, which has been appropriately
prepared for use:
2. If you use shielded cables, then you must connect the shield to the mounting plate of the
control cabinet or with the shield support of the inverter through a good electrical
connection and a large surface area.
See also: EMC installation guideline
(http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/60612658)
3. Use the shield connection plate of the Control Unit as strain relief, also see: Overview of
Control Units (Page 24).
You have connected the terminal strip.
● For screw connections onto painted or anodized surfaces, establish a good conductive
contact using one of the following methods:
– Use special (serrated) contact washers that cut through the painted or anodized
surface.
– Remove the insulating coating at the contact locations.
● Equip the following components with interference suppression elements:
– Coils of contactors
– Relays
– Solenoid valves
– Motor holding brakes
Interference suppression elements include RC elements or varistors for AC-operated
coils and freewheeling diodes for DC-operated coils.
Connect the interference suppression element directly at the coil.
The terminal cover is not shown in the diagram, so that it is easier to see how the cable is connected.

Advanced settings
You can debounce the digital input signal using parameter p0724.
For more information, please see the parameter list and the function block diagrams 2220 f
of the List Manual.
See also Section: Safe Torque Off (STO) safety function (Page 225).
Note
Control Units CU240B-2 and CU240B-2 DP do not have a safety-relevant digital input.
Signal states
The inverter expects signals with the same state at its safety-related input:
● High signal: The safety function is deselected.
● Low signal: The safety function is selected.
Fault detection
The inverter evaluates deviations in the two signals of the safety-related input. The inverter
thus detects, for example the following faults:
● Cable break
● Defective sensor
The inverter cannot detect the following faults:
● Cross-circuit of the two cables
● Short-circuit between signal cable and 24 V power supply
Advanced settings
You can invert the signal of the digital output using parameter p0748.

• Voltage input: Switch position U (factory setting)
• Current input: Switch position I
Characteristics
If you change the analog input type using p0756, then the inverter automatically selects the
appropriate scaling of the analog input. The linear scaling characteristic is defined using two
points (p0757, p0758) and (p0759, p0760). Parameters p0757 … p0760 are assigned to an
analog input via their index, e.g. parameters p0757[0] … p0760[0] belong to analog input 0.
Parameter Description
p0757 x-coordinate of 1st characteristic point [V or mA]
p0758 y coordinate of the 1st characteristic point [% of p200x]
p200x are the parameters of the reference variables, e.g. p2000 is the reference
speed
p0759 x-coordinate of 2nd characteristic point [V or mA]
p0760 y-coordinate of 2nd characteristic point [% of p200x]
p0761 Wire breakage monitoring response threshold
Example
The inverter should convert a 6 mA … 12 mA signal into the value range -100 % … 100 %
via analog input 0. The wire break monitoring of the inverter should respond when 6 mA is
fallen below.
Precondition
You have set analog input 0 as a current input ("I") via the DIP switch on the
Control Unit.

Characteristics
If you change the analog output type, then the inverter automatically selects the appropriate
scaling of the analog output. The linear scaling characteristic is defined using two points
(p0777, p0778) and (p0779, p0780).
Parameters p0777 … p0780 are assigned to an analog output via their index, e.g.
parameters p0777[0] … p0770[0] belong to analog output 0.

Telegram examples
Read request: Read out serial number of the Power Module (p7841[2])
To obtain the value of the indexed parameter p7841, you must fill the telegram of the
parameter channel with the following data:
● PKE, bit 12 … 15 (AK): = 6 (request parameter value (field))
● PKE, bit 0 … 10 (PNU): = 1841 (Parameter number without offset)
Parameter number = PNU + offset (page index)
(7841 = 1841 + 6000)
● IND, bit 8 … 15 (subindex): = 2 (Index of the parameter)
● IND, bit 0 … 7 (page index): = 90 hex (offset 6000 ≙ 90 hex)
● Because you want to read the parameter value, words 3 and 4 in the parameter channel
for requesting the parameter value are irrelevant. They should be assigned a value of 0,
for example.
Write request: Assign digital input 2 with the function ON/OFF1 (p0840[1] = 722.2)
In order to link digital input 2 with ON/OFF1, you must assign parameter p0840[1] (source,
ON/OFF1) the value 722.2 (DI 2). To do this, you must fill the telegram of the parameter
channel as follows:
● PKE, bit 12 … 15 (AK): = 7 hex (change, parameter value (field, word))
● PKE, bit 0 … 10 (PNU): = 348 hex (840 = 348 hex, no offset, as 840 < 1999)
● IND, bit 8 … 15 (subindex): = 1 hex (CDS1 = index1)
● IND, bit 0 … 7 (page index): = 0 hex (offset 0 ≙ 0 hex)
● PWE1, bit 0 … 15: = 2D2 hex (722 = 2D2 hex)
● PWE2, bit 10 … 15: = 3F hex (drive object - for SINAMICS G120, always 63 = 3f hex)

Converter states and commands for switching the motor on and off
In addition to the OFF1 command, there are other commands that are used to switch off the
motor:
● OFF2 - the converter immediately switches off the motor without first braking it.
● OFF3 - this command means "quick stop". After OFF3, the converter brakes the motor
with the OFF3 ramp-down time. After reaching standstill, the converter switches off the
motor.
The command is frequently used for exceptional operating situations where it is
necessary to brake the motor especially quickly. Collision protection is a typical
application for this function.
● Disable operation – The converter switches off the motor and blocks the setpoint.
● Enable operation – The converter switches on the motor and enables the setpoint.

You can find more information in function diagram 3070 and in the parameter list of the List
Manual.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to set the extended ramp-function generator:
1. Enter the highest possible speed setpoint.
2. Switch on the motor.
3. Evaluate your drive response.
– If the motor accelerates too slowly, then reduce the ramp-up time.
An excessively short ramp-up time means that the motor will reach its current limiting
when accelerating, and will temporarily not be able to follow the speed setpoint. In this
case, the drive exceeds the set time.
– If the motor accelerates too fast, then extend the ramp-up time.
– Increase the initial rounding if the acceleration is jerky.
– We recommend that you set the final rounding to the same value as the initial
rounding.
4. Switch off the motor.
5. Evaluate your drive response.
– If the motor decelerates too slowly, then reduce the ramp-down time.
The minimum ramp-down time that makes sense depends on your particular
application. Depending on the Power Module used, for an excessively short ramp-
down time, the converter either reaches the motor current, or the DC link voltage in
the converter becomes too high. Depending on the converter setting, the real braking
time exceeds the set ramp-down time, or the converter goes into a fault condition
when braking.
– Extend the ramp-down time if the motor is braked too quickly or the converter goes
into a fault condition when braking.
6. Repeat steps 1 … 5 until the drive behavior meets the requirements of the machine or
plant.
You have set the extended ramp-function generator.

Example
In the following example, the higher-level control sets the ramp-up and ramp-down times of
the inverter via PROFIBUS.
Figure 8-19 Example for changing the ramp-function generator times in operation
Preconditions
● You have commissioned the communication between the inverter and the control system.
● Free telegram 999 has been set in the inverter and in your higher-level control system.
See also Section: Extend telegrams and change signal interconnection (Page 133).
● The controller sends the scaling value to the inverter in PZD 3.
Procedure
To interconnect the scaling of the ramp-up and ramp-down times with PZD receive word 3
from the fieldbus in the inverter, proceed as follows:
1. Set p1138 = 2050[2].
This means that you have interconnected the scaling factor for the ramp-up time with
PZD receive word 3.
2. Set p1139 = 2050[2].
This means that you have interconnected the scaling factor for the ramp-down time with
PZD receive word 3.
The inverter receives the value for scaling the ramp-up and ramp-down times via PZD
receive word 3.
① The voltage boost of the characteristic improves motor behavior at low speeds. The voltage boost
is effective for frequencies < rated frequency
The converter increases its output voltage – also above the motor rated speed up to the
maximum output voltage. The higher the line voltage, the greater the maximum converter
output voltage.
If the converter has reached its maximum output voltage, then it can only increase its output
frequency. From this point onwards, the motor is operated in field weakening; this means
that the available torque linearly decreases with increasing speed.
The value of the output voltage at the rated motor frequency also depends on the following
variables:
● Ratio between the converter size and the motor size
● Line voltage
● Line impedance
● Actual motor torque
The maximum possible output voltage as a function of the input voltage is provided in the
technical data, also see Section Technical data (Page 303).
Additional information on U/f characteristics can be found in the parameter list and in the
function diagrams 6300 ff of the List Manual.
8.5.1.3 Optimizing with a high break loose torque and brief overload
Procedure
Proceed as follows to set the voltage boost:
Only increase the voltage boost in small steps. Excessively high values in p1310 ... p1312
can cause the motor to overheat and switch off (trip) the inverter due to overcurrent.
1. Power-up the motor with an average speed.
2. Reduce the speed to just a few revolutions per minute.
3. Check whether the motor rotates smoothly.
4. If the motor does not rotate smoothly, or even remains stationary, increase the voltage
boost p1310 until you are satisfied with the motor behavior.
5. Accelerate the motor to the maximum speed with maximum load and check as to whether
the motor follows the setpoint.
6. If, when accelerating, the motor stalls, increase the voltage boost p1311 until the motor
accelerates to the maximum speed without any problems.
To achieve satisfactory motor behavior, you must increase the parameter p1312 only in

Monitoring types
The inverter monitors its temperature using the following monitoring types:
● I2t monitoring (alarm A07805, fault F30005)
The I2t monitoring calculates the inverter utilization on the basis of a current reference
value predefined by the factory.
– Actual current > reference value: The actual value of the utilization increases.
– Actual current < reference value: The actual value of the utilization decreases or
remains = 0.
● Measuring the chip temperature of the Power Module (alarm A05006, fault F30024)
● Measuring the heat sink temperature of the Power Module (alarm A05000, fault F30004)
Parameter Description
r0036 Power unit overload I2t [%]
r0037 Power unit temperatures [°C]
p0290 Power unit overload response
Factory setting and the ability to be changed depends on the hardware. The dependency
is described in the List Manual.
A thermal overload is present if the inverter temperature is greater than that specified in
p0292.
You define how the inverter responds if there is a risk of thermal overload using this
parameter. The details are described below.
p0292 Power unit temperature warning threshold (factory setting: Heat sink [0] 5 °C, power
semiconductor [1] 15 °C)
The value is set as a difference to the shutdown temperature.
p0294 Power unit warning at I2t overload (factory setting: 95 %)
Figure 8-22 Derating characteristic and base load output current for overload
Once the overload condition has been removed, the inverter increases the pulse
frequency back to the pulse frequency setpoint p1800.
2. If it is not possible to temporarily reduce the pulse frequency, or the risk of thermal
overload cannot be prevented, then stage 2 follows:
– In vector control, the inverter reduces its output current.
– In U/f control, the inverter reduces the speed.
Once the overload condition has been removed, the inverter re-enables the output
current or speed.
If both measures cannot prevent a power unit thermal overload, then the inverter switches off
the motor with fault F30024.
Temperature switch
The converter interprets a resistance ≥ 100 Ω as being an opened temperature
switch and responds according to the setting for p0610.
PTC sensor
The converter interprets a resistance > 1650 Ω as being an overtemperature and
responds according to the setting for p0610.
The converter interprets a resistance < 20 Ω as being a short-circuit and responds
with alarm A07015. If the alarm is present for longer than 100 milliseconds, the
converter shuts down with fault F07016.
KTY84 sensor
NOTICE
Motor overheating due to incorrectly connected KTY sensor
If a KTY sensor is connected with incorrect polarity, the motor can become damaged due to
overheating, as the converter cannot detect a motor overtemperature condition.
• Connect the KTY sensor with the correct polarity.
Using a KTY sensor, the converter monitors the motor temperature and the sensor
itself for wire-break or short-circuit:
● Temperature monitoring:
The converter uses a KTY sensor to evaluate the motor temperature in the range from -
48° C ... +248° C.
Use the p0604 or p0605 parameter to set the temperature for the alarm and fault
threshold.

I_max controller
Requirements
The torque of the motor must decrease at lower speeds, which is the case, for example, with
fans.
The load must not drive the motor continuously, e.g. when lowering hoisting gear.
Function
The I-max controller influences the output frequency and the motor voltage.
If the motor current reaches the current limit during acceleration, the I-max controller extends
the acceleration operation.
If the load of the motor is so large during stationary operation that the motor current reaches
the current limit, the I-max controller reduces the speed and the motor voltage until the motor
current is in the permissible range again.
If the motor current reaches the current limit during deceleration, the I-max controller extends
the deceleration operation.
Settings
You only have to change the factory settings of the I-max controller if the drive tends to
oscillate when it reaches the current limit or if it is shut down due to overcurrent.

Description
With the unit changeover function, you can adapt the inverter to the line supply (50/60 Hz)
and also select US units or SI units as base units.
Independent of this, you can define the units for process variables or change over to
percentage values.
Specifically, you have the following options:
● Changing over the motor standard (Page 189) IEC/NEMA (adaptation to the line supply)
● Changing over the unit system (Page 190)
● Changing over process variables for the technology controller (Page 191)
Note
The motor standard, the unit system as well as the process variables can only be changed
offline.
The procedure is described in Section Switching units with STARTER (Page 191).
*) Factory setting
Note
Special features
The percentage values for p0505 = 2 and for p0505 = 4 are identical. For internal
calculation and for the output of physical variables, it is, however, important whether the
conversion is made to SI or US units.
In the case of variables for which changeover to % is not possible, the following applies:
p0505 = 1 ≙ p0505 = 2 and p0505 = 3 ≙ p0505 = 4.
In the case of variables whose units are identical in the SI system and US system, and
which can be displayed as a percentage, the following applies:
p0505 = 1 ≙ p0505 = 3 and p0505 = 2 ≙ p0505 = 4.
Parameters affected by changeover
The parameters affected by changing over the unit system are grouped according to unit.
An overview of the unit groups and the possible units can be found in the List Manual in
the Section "Unit group and unit selection".
Note
We recommend that the units and reference values of the technology controller are
coordinated and harmonized with one another during commissioning.
Subsequent modification in the reference variable or the unit can result in incorrect
calculations or displays.
Precondition
The inverter must be in the offline mode in order to change over the units.
STARTER shows whether you change settings online in the inverter or change offline in the
PC ( / ).
Procedure
To change over the units with STARTER, proceed as follows:
1. Select the configuration
2. Go to the "Units" tab in the configuration screen form to change over the units
3. Changing over the system of units
6. Save your
settings.
7. Go online.

Background
Fluid flow machines, which are used to control the flow rate using valves or throttles, run
continuously at their rated speed. The lower the flow rate, the lower the system efficiency.
The efficiency is the lowest when valves or throttles are completely closed. Further,
undesirable effects can occur, e.g. the formation of vapor bubbles in liquids (cavitation) or
the temperature rise of the medium being pumped increases.
The inverter controls the flow rate or the pressure by varying the speed of the fluid flow
machine. As a consequence, over its complete operating range, a fluid-flow machine
operates close to its maximum efficiency – and especially in partial load operation, uses less
energy than for valve and throttle-based controls.
Function
The inverter calculates the energy
saving of flow control using the inverter
compared to mechanical flow control
based on the flow characteristics
saved. The calculation is suitable for
fluid-flow machines, e.g. centrifugal
pumps, fans, radial and axial
compressors.

r0041 Energy consumption saved (kWh)
Energy saved referred to 100 operating hours.
For less than 100 operating hours, the inverter interpolates the energy saving to 100
operating hours.
Precondition
You require the following data to calculate the system-specific flow characteristic:
● Flow characteristics of the system manufacturer
● System characteristics for 5 different flow rates
Procedure
Proceed as follows to adapt the operating characteristic:
1. For a drive connected directly to the line supply, calculate the corresponding speeds
required for 5 different flow rates.
2. Based on the flow characteristic of the system, calculate the power that the drive requires
for the different flow rates.
3. Enter the values into the characteristic.
You have adapted the flow characteristic, and you now obtain a precise result for the
energy saving.
Regenerative power
If a motor electrically brakes the connected load and the mechanical power exceeds the
electrical losses, then it works as a generator. The motor converts mechanical power by
generating electrical power.
When the motor operates as a generator, it attempts to transfer the power generated to
the inverter.
8.7.3.1 DC braking
DC braking is used for applications without regenerative feedback into the line supply, where
the motor can be more quickly braked by impressing a DC current than along a braking
ramp.
Typical applications for DC braking include:
● Centrifuges
● Saws
● Grinding machines
● Conveyor belts
Function
NOTICE
Motor damage caused by overheating
The motor can overheat if it is braked for long periods of time or frequently using DC
braking. This may damage the motor.
• Monitor the motor temperature.
• If the motor gets too hot during operation you must select another braking method or
give the motor more time to cool down.
With DC braking, the inverter outputs an internal OFF2 command for the time that it takes to
de-energize the motor p0347 - and then impresses the braking current for the duration of the
DC braking.
The DC-braking function is possible only for induction motors.

Assigning the fault response: p2101[3] = 6.
The fault is assigned an index of p2100. Assign the same index of p2100 or p2101 to the fault and
fault response.
The inverter's List Manual lists in the "Faults and alarms" list the possible fault responses for every
fault. The "DCBRAKE" entry means that it is permissible to set DC braking as response for this
particular fault.
Principle of operation
Figure 8-23 Motor brakes with and without active compound braking
Compound braking prevents the DC-link voltage increasing above a critical value. The
inverter activates compound braking depending on the DC-link voltage. Above a DC-link
voltage threshold (r1282), the inverter adds a DC current to the motor current. The DC
current brakes the motor and prevents an excessive increase in the DC-link voltage.
Note
Compound braking is possible only with the U/f control.
Compound braking does not operate in the following cases:
• The "flying restart" function is active
• DC braking is active
• Vector control is selected
Parameter Description

NOTICE
Motor damage from overheating with compound braking
The motor will overheat if braking lasts too long or the motor is braked too often. This may
damage the motor.
Monitor the motor temperature. If the motor gets too hot during operation you must select
another braking method or give the motor more time to cool down.
Principle of operation
CAUTION
Burns when touching a hot braking resistor
A braking resistor reaches high temperatures during operation. Touching the braking
resistor may result in burns.
• Do not touch a braking resistor during operation.
The inverter controls the braking chopper depending on its DC-link voltage. The DC-link
voltage increases as soon as the inverter absorbs the regenerative power when braking the
motor. The braking chopper converts this power into heat in the braking resistor. This
prevents the DC-link voltage from increasing above the limit value UDC link, max .
Table 8- 29 Parameter
Parameter Description
p0219 Braking power of the braking resistor (factory setting: 0 kW)
Set the maximum braking power that the braking resistor must handle in your particular
application.
Under certain circumstances, for low braking power ratings, the inverter extends the
ramp-down time of the motor.
Example: In your particular application, the motor brakes every 10 seconds. In so doing,
the braking resistor must handle a braking power of 1 kW for 2 s. Use a braking resistor
with a continuous power rating of 1 kW × 2 s / 10 s = 0.2 kW and set the maximum
braking power to: p0219 = 1 (kW).

with fault F07806.

DANGER
Danger to life due to falling loads
For applications such as lifting equipment, cranes or elevators, there is a danger to life if
the "Motor holding brake" function is incorrectly set.
• When commissioning the "Motor holding brake" function, secure any dangerous loads,
e.g. by applying the following measures:
– Lower the load down to the floor
– Cordon off the hazardous area so that nobody can enter it
Precondition
The motor holding brake is connected to the inverter.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to commission the "Motor holding brake" function using an operator
panel.
1. Set p1215 = 1.
The "Motor holding brake" function" is enabled.
2. Check the magnetizing time p0346; the magnetizing time is pre-assigned during
commissioning and must be greater than zero.
3. Take the opening and closing times of the connected brake from the technical data for
the motor holding brake.
– Depending on the brake size, brake opening times lie between 25 ms and 500 ms.
– Depending on the brake size, brake closing times lie between 15 ms and 300 ms.
4. Set the following parameters in the inverter to match the opening and closing times of the
brake:
– Opening time ≤ p1216.
– Closing time ≤ p1217.
5. Switch on the motor.
6. Check the acceleration behavior of the drive immediately after the motor has been
switched on:
– If the brake opens too late, the inverter accelerates the motor against the closed brake
which results in a jerky motion.
In this case, increase the opening time p1216.
– After opening the brake, if the motor waits too long before it accelerates the motor,
then reduce the opening time p1216.
7. If the load sags after switching on the motor, then you must increase the motor torque
when opening the motor holding brake. Depending on the control mode, you must set
different parameters:
– U/f operation (p1300 = 0 to 3):
Increase p1310 step-by-step.
Increase p1351 step-by-step.
– Vector control (p1300 ≥ 20):
Increase p1475 in small steps.
8. Switch off the motor.
9. Check the braking behavior of the drive immediately after the motor has been switched
off:
– If the brake closes too late, the load briefly sags before the brake closes.
In this case, increase the closing time p1217.
– After closing the brake, if the motor waits too long before it switches off the motor,
then reduce the closing time p1217.
You have commissioned the "Motor holding brake" function.

Setting the signal source for the torque set value when starting with motor holding
brake.
If the converter simultaneously drives several motors, then you must only use the "flying

mechanical coupling).
Parameter Description
p1200 Flying restart operating mode (factory setting 0)
0 Flying restart is locked
1 Flying restart is enabled, look for the motor in both directions, start in direction of
setpoint
4 Flying restart is enabled, only search in direction of setpoint
Parameter Description
p1201 Flying restart enable signal source (factory setting 1)
Defines a control command, e.g. a digital input, through which the flying restart function
is enabled.
p1202 Flying restart search current (factory setting 100%)
Defines the search current with respect to the motor magnetizing current (r0331), which
flows in the motor while the flying restart function is being used.
p1203 Flying restart search speed factor (factory setting 100%)
The value influences the speed with which the output frequency is changed during the
flying restart. A higher value results in a longer search time.
If the converter does not find the motor, reduce the search speed (increase p1203).
WARNING
Injuries from the automated machine restart
When the "automatic restart" function is active (p1210 > 1), the motor automatically
starts after a power failure. The movements that the machine executes may result in
serious injuries.
• Block the machine to prevent unintentional access.
• Before working on the machine switch the automatic restart mechanism off.
The principle of operation of the other parameters is explained in the following diagram and
in the table below.
Parameter Explanation
p1210 Automatic restart mode (factory setting: 0)
0: Disable automatic restart.
1: Acknowledge all faults without restarting.
4: Restart after power failure without further restart attempts.
6: Restart after fault with further restart attempts.
14: Restart after power failure after manual acknowledgement.
16: Restart after fault after manual acknowledgement.
26: Acknowledgement of all faults and restart with ON/OFF1 = 1 command.
Parameter Explanation
p1211 Automatic restart start attempts (factory setting: 3)
This parameter is only effective for the settings p1210 = 4, 6, 14, 16, 26.
You define the maximum number of start attempts using p1211. After each successful
acknowledgement, the inverter decrements its internal counter of start attempts by 1.
For p1211 = n, up to n + 1 start attempts are made. Fault F07320 is output after n + 1
unsuccessful start attempts.
The inverter sets the start attempt counter back again to the value of p1211, if one of
the following conditions is fulfilled:
• After a successful start attempt, the time in p1213[1] has expired.
• After fault F07320, switch off the motor (OFF1) and acknowledge the fault.
• You change the start value p1211 or the mode p1210.
p1212 Automatic restart wait time start attempt (factory setting: 1.0 s)
This parameter is only effective for the settings p1210 = 4, 6, 26.
Examples for setting this parameter:
1. After a power failure, a certain time must elapse before the motor can be switched-
on, e.g. because other machine components are not immediately ready. In this case,
set p1212 longer than the time, after which all of the fault causes have been
removed.
2. In operation, the inverter develops a fault condition. The lower you select p1212,
then the sooner the inverter attempts to switch-on the motor again.
p1213[0] Automatic restart monitoring time
for restart (factory setting: 60 s)
This parameter is only effective for the settings p1210 = 4, 6, 14, 16, 26.
With this monitoring function, you limit the time in which the inverter may attempt to
automatically switch-on the motor again.
The monitoring function starts when a fault is identified and ends with a successful start
attempt. If the motor has not successfully started after the monitoring time has expired,
fault F07320 is signaled.
Set the monitoring time longer than the sum of the following times:
+ p1212
+ Time that the inverter requires to start the motor on the fly.
+ Motor magnetizing time (p0346)
+ 1 second
You deactivate the monitoring function with p1213 = 0.
p1213[1] Automatic restart monitoring time
to reset the fault counter (factory setting: 0 s)
This parameter is only effective for the settings p1210 = 4, 6, 14, 16, 26.
Using this monitoring time, you prevent that faults, which continually occur within a
certain time period, are automatically acknowledged each time.
The monitoring function starts with a successful start attempt and ends after the
monitoring time has expired.
If the inverter has made more than (p1211 + 1) successful start attempts within
monitoring time p1213[1], the inverter cancels the automatic restart function and signals
fault F07320. In order to switch on the motor again, you must acknowledge the fault and
set ON/OFF1 = 1.
Advanced settings
If you with to suppress the automatic restart function for certain faults, then you must enter
the appropriate fault numbers in p1206[0 … 9].
Example: p1206[0] = 07331 ⇒ No restart for fault F07331.
Suppressing the automatic restart only functions for the setting p1210 = 6, 16 or 26.
WARNING
Injury and property damage
In the case of communication via the fieldbus interface, the motor restarts with the setting
p1210 = 6, 16, 26 even if the communication link is interrupted. This means that the control
cannot stop the motor. To avoid this dangerous situation, you must enter the fault code
of the communications fault in parameter p1206.
Example: A communication failure via PROFIBUS is signaled using fault code F01910. You
should therefore set p1206[n] = 1910 (n = 0 … 9).
Preconditions
The following prerequisites must be fulfilled to practically use the "kinetic buffering" function:
● The driven load has a sufficiently high inertia.
● The application allows a motor to be braked during a power failure.
Function
When the line supply dips or is interrupted, the DC link voltage in the inverter decreases. At
an adjustable threshold, kinetic buffering intervenes (VDC min control). The VDC min control
forces the load to go into slightly regenerative operation. As a consequence, the inverter
covers its power loss and the losses in the motor with the kinetic energy of the load. The
load speed decreases; however, during kinetic buffering, the DC voltage remains constant.
After the line supply returns, the inverter immediately resumes normal operation.

8.7.8.1 Overview
The technology controller controls process variables, e.g. pressure, temperature, level or
flow.
① The inverter uses the start value if the following conditions are met simultaneously:
● The technology controller supplies the main setpoint (p2251 = 0).
● The ramp-function generator output of the technology controller has not yet reached the
start value.
Parameter Remark
p2200 = 1 Enable technology controller.
p1070 = 2294 Interconnect the main speed setpoint with the output of the technology controller.
p2253 Define the setpoint for the technology controller.
Example:
p2253 = 2224: The inverter interconnects the fixed setpoint p2201 with the setpoint
of the technology controller.
p2220 = 1: The fixed setpoint p2201 is selected.
p2264 Define the setpoint for the technology controller.
p2257, p2258 Define the ramp-up and ramp-down times [s]
p2274 Differentiation time constant [s]
The differentiation improves the rise time characteristics for very slow controlled
variables, e.g. a temperature control.
p2274 = 0: The differentiation is switched off.
p2280 Proportional gain KP
p2285 Integral time TN [s]
Without an integral time, the controller cannot completely equalize deviations
between the setpoint and actual value.
p2285 = 0: The integral time is switched off.
Advanced settings
Parameter Remark
Limiting the output of the technology controller
In the factory setting, the output of the technology controller is limited to ± maximum speed. You must
change this limit, depending on your particular application.
Example: The output of the technology controller supplies the speed setpoint for a pump. The pump
should only run in the positive direction.
p2297 = 2291 Interconnect the upper limit with p2291.
p2298 = 2292 Interconnect the lower limit with p2292.
p2291 Upper limit for the technology controller output e.g.: p2291 =100
p2292 Lower limit for the technology controller output e.g.: p2292 = 0
Manipulating the actual value of the technology controller
p2267, p2268 Limit the actual value
p2269 Scale the actual value
p2271 Invert the actual value
p2270 Actual value
For further information refer to the function block diagrams 7950 ff of the List Manual.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to set the technology controller:
1. Temporarily set the ramp-up and ramp-down times of the ramp-function generator (p2257
and p2258) to zero.
2. Enter a setpoint step and monitor the associated actual value, e.g. with the trace function
of STARTER.
The slower the response of the process to be controlled, the longer you must monitor the
controller response. Under certain circumstances (e.g. for a temperature control), you
need to wait several minutes until you can evaluate the controller response.
3. Set the ramp-up and ramp-down times of the ramp-function generator back to their
original value.
You have now set the technology controller.

Load failure
Using this function, the inverter monitors the speed or velocity of a machine component. The
inverter evaluates whether an encoder signal is present. If the encoder signal fails for a time
that can be adjusted, then the inverter signals a fault.
Examples of how the function can be used:
● Gearbox monitoring for traction drives and hoisting gear
● Drive belt monitoring for fans and conveyor belts
● Blocking protection for pumps and conveyor belts
Parameter Description
p2192 Load monitoring delay time (factory setting 10 s)
After the motor is switched on, if the "LOW" signal is present at the associated
digital input for longer than this time, the inverter signals a load failure (F07936).

Connect the load monitoring to a DI x digital input of your choice.
For more information, see the List Manual (the parameter list and function diagram 8013).
Speed deviation
Using this function, the inverter calculates and monitors the speed or velocity of a machine
component. The inverter analyzes an encoder signal, calculates a speed from the signal,
compares it to the motor speed and reports any excessive deviation between the encoder
signal and the motor speed.
Examples of how the function can be used:
● Gearbox monitoring for traction drives and hoisting gear
● Drive belt monitoring for fans and conveyor belts
● Blocking protection for conveyor belts
You require a transmitter for this function, e.g. a proximity switch. The inverter analyzes an
encoder signal at max. 32 kHz.
The function is only available with the CU240E-2 Control Unit via digital input DI 3.
The inverter determines the speed deviation from the calculated speed r0586 and the speed
list value r2169. p2181 determines the response of the inverter if the deviation is excessive.

8.7.12.1 Overview
The free function blocks permit configurable signal processing in the inverter.
The following free function blocks are available:
● AND, OR, XOR, and NOT logic
● RSR (RS flip-flop), DSR (D flip-flop) flip-flops
● Timers MFP (pulse generator), PCL (pulse shortening), PDE (ON delay), PDF (OFF
delay), and PST (pulse stretching)
● ADD (adder), SUB (subtractor), MUL (multiplier), DIV (divider), AVA (absolute value
generated), NCM (comparator), and PLI (polyline) arithmetic functions
● LIM (limiter), PT1 (smoothing), INT (integrator), DIF (differentiator) controllers
● NSW (analog) BSW (binary) switches
● LVM limit value monitoring
The number of free function blocks in the inverter is limited. You can only use a function
block once. The inverter has 3 adders, for instance. If you have already configured three
adders, then no other adders are available.
Example
You can find an example for using the free function blocks in Chapter Interconnecting signals
in the inverter (Page 357).

1. Select the inputs/outputs in STARTER in the project navigator.
2. Select the screen for the digital inputs.
3. Remove all digital input interconnections that you use as safety-related input F-DI:
4. If you use the CDS dataset switchover, you must delete the digital input connections for
all CDS.
You have now prevented safety-related inputs in the safety functions controlling "standard"
functions in the inverter.
What is an acceptance?
The machine manufacturer is responsible in ensuring that his plant or machine functions
perfectly. As a consequence, after commissioning, the machine manufacturer must check
those functions or have them checked by specialist personnel, which represent an increased
risk of injury to personnel or material damage. This acceptance or validation is, for example,
also specified in the European machinery directive and essentially comprises two parts:
● Checking the safety-relevant functions and machine parts.
→ Acceptance test.
● Generate an "Acceptance report" that describes the test results.
→ Documentation.
Supply information for the validation, e.g. the harmonized European standards
EN ISO 13849-1 and EN ISO 13849-2.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to create the acceptance documentation for the drive using STARTER:
Example:
You connect different motors to one inverter. Depending on the particular motor, the inverter
must operate with the associated motor data and the appropriate ramp-function generator.

If you operate the same motor with different drive data sets, then you must enter the
same motor number in every index of parameter p0826. In this particular case, you
can also switch over between the different drive data sets in operation.
If you operate different motors on one inverter, then you must number the motors in
parameter p0826. In this case, you may only switch over the drive data sets in the
"ready for operation" state with the motor switched-off. The switchover time is
approx. 50 ms.

This setting is only possible via the expert list.
Know-how protection
The know-how protection is used to encrypt configuring/engineering know-how, and protect it
against being changed or copied.
The settings of the converter are protected by a password.
If the password is lost, only default settings are possible.
The active know-how protection provides the following:
● All setting parameters are invisible.
● Parameters cannot be changed with a commissioning tool, e.g. operator panel or
STARTER.
● It is not possible to download the converter settings with the Starter or via a memory card
● It is not possible to use the trace function in the STARTER.
● Deleting the alarm history
● The STARTER dialog screens are disabled. The expert list in the STARTER contains
only display parameters.
In the case of active know-how protection, support by technical support personnel is only
possible with the consent of the machine manufacturer.
Copy protection
In conjunction with the copy protection, the converter settings can be coupled only to a
single, pre-defined hardware.
The know-how protection with copy protection is possible only with the recommended
Siemens memory card; also see Section: Overview of Control Units (Page 24)
Exception list
The active know-how protection permits an exception list for parameters to be defined that
the customer may access.

Option 1: The machine manufacturer only knows the serial number of the new inverter
● The end customer provides the machine manufacturer with the following information:
– For which machine must the inverter be replaced?
– What is the serial number (r7758) of the new inverter?
● The machine manufacturer goes online on the sample machine.
– deactivates the know-how protection, see Settings for the know-how protection
(Page 259)
– enters the serial number of the new inverter in p7759
– enters the serial number of the inserted memory card as reference serial number in
p7769
– activates the know-how protection with copy protection ("Copy RAM to ROM" must be
activated!), see Settings for the know-how protection (Page 259)
– writes the configuration with p0971 = 1 to the memory card
– sends the memory card to the end customer
● The end customer inserts the memory card and switches on the inverter.
When powering up, the inverter checks the serial numbers of the card and when there is a
match, the inverter goes into the "ready to start" state.
If the numbers do not match, then the inverter signals fault F13100 (no valid memory card).

Principle of operation
The inverter starts the system runtime as soon as the inverter is supplied with power. The
system runtime stops when the inverter is switched off.
The system runtime comprises r2114[0] (milliseconds) and r2114[1] (days):
System runtime = r2114[1] × days + r2114[0] × milliseconds
If r2114[0] has reached a value of 86,400,000 ms (24 hours), the inverter sets r2114[0] the
value 0 and increases the value of r2114[1] by 1.
Using system runtime, you can track the chronological sequence of faults and alarms over
time. When a corresponding message is triggered, the inverter transfers the parameter
values r2114 to the corresponding parameters of the alarm or fault buffer.
Parameters Description
r2114[0] System runtime (ms)
r2114[1] System runtime (days)
11.3 Alarms
Alarms have the following properties:
● They do not have a direct effect in the converter and disappear once the cause has been
removed
● They do not need have to be acknowledged
● They are signaled as follows
– Status display via bit 7 in status word 1 (r0052)
– At the Operator Panel with a Axxxxx
– Via STARTER, if you click on TAB at the bottom left of the STARTER screen
In order to pinpoint the cause of an alarm, there is a unique alarm code and also a value for
each alarm.
Alarm buffer
For each incoming alarm, the converter saves the alarm, alarm value and the time that the
alarm was received.
r2124 and r2134 contain the alarm value - important for diagnostics - as "fixed point" or
"floating point" number.
The alarm times are displayed in r2145 and r2146 (in complete days) as well as in r2123 and
r2125 (in milliseconds referred to the day of the alarm).
The converter uses an internal time calculation to save the alarm times. More information on
the internal time calculation can be found in Chapter System runtime (Page 286).
As soon as the alarm has been removed, the converter writes the associated instant in time
into parameters r2125 and r2146. The alarm remains in the alarm buffer even if the alarm
has been removed.
If an additional alarm is received, then this is also saved. The first alarm is still saved. The
alarms that have occurred are counted in p2111.
The alarm buffer can contain up to eight alarms. If an additional alarm is received after the
eighth alarm - and none of the last eight alarms have been removed - then the next to last
alarm is overwritten.
Figure 11-4 Shifting alarms that have been removed into the alarm history
Any alarms that have not been removed remain in the alarm buffer. The converter sorts the
alarms and closes gaps between the alarms.
If the alarm history is filled up to index 63, each time a new alarm is accepted in the alarm
history, the oldest alarm is deleted.
Parameter Description
r2122 Alarm code
Displays the numbers of alarms that have occurred
r2123 Alarm time received in milliseconds
Displays the time in milliseconds when the alarm occurred
r2124 Alarm value
Displays additional information about the alarm
r2125 Alarm time removed in milliseconds
Displays the time in milliseconds when the alarm was removed
p2111 Alarm counter
Number of alarms that have occurred after the last reset
When setting p2111 = 0, all of the alarms that have been removed from the alarm
buffer [0...7] are transferred into the alarm history [8...63]
r2145 Alarm time received in days
Displays the time in days when the alarm occurred
r2132 Actual alarm code
Displays the code of the alarm that last occurred
r2134 Alarm value for float values
Displays additional information about the alarm that occurred for float values
r2146 Alarm time removed in days
Displays the time in days when the alarm was removed
Parameter Description
You can change up to 20 different alarms into a fault or suppress alarms:
p2118 Setting the message number for the message type
Selection of the alarms for which the message type should be changed
p2119 Setting the message type
Setting the message type for the selected alarm
1: Fault
2: Alarm
3: No message
You will find details in function diagram 8075 and in the parameter description of the List
Manual.
11.4 Faults
A fault indicates a severe fault during inverter operation.
The inverter signals a fault as follows:
● At the operator panel with Fxxxxx
● At the inverter using the red LED RDY
● In bit 3 of status word 1 (r0052)
● Via STARTER
To delete a message, you must remedy the cause of the fault and acknowledge the fault.
Every fault has a unique fault code and also a fault value. You need this information to
determine the cause of the fault.
r0949 and r2133 contain the fault value - important for diagnostics - as "fixed point" or
"floating point" number.
The "fault time received" is in parameter r2130 (in complete days) as well as in parameter
r0948 (in milliseconds referred to the day of the fault). The "fault time removed" is written to
parameters r2109 and r2136 when the fault has been acknowledged.
The inverter uses its internal time calculation to save the fault times. More information on the
internal time calculation can be found in Chapter System runtime (Page 286).
If an additional fault occurs before the first fault has been acknowledged, then this is also
saved. The first alarm remains saved. The fault cases that have occurred are counted in
p0952. A fault case can contain one or several faults.
The fault buffer can accept up to eight actual faults. The next to last fault is overwritten if an
additional fault occurs after the eighth fault.
Acknowledgement
You have multiple options to acknowledge a fault, e.g.:
● PROFIdrive control word 1, bit 7 (r2090.7)
● Acknowledge via the operator panel
● Switch-off the inverter power supply and switch-on again.
Faults detected during the inverter-internal monitoring of hardware and firmware can be
acknowledged only by switching the supply voltage off and on again. The list of faults in the
List Manual contains a note on this limited acknowledgment possibility.
After acknowledgment, the faults that have not been removed are located in the fault buffer
as well as in the fault history. For these faults, the "fault time coming" remains unchanged
and the "fault time removed" remains empty.
If less than eight faults were shifted or copied into the fault history, the memory locations with
the higher indexes remain empty.
The inverter shifts the values previously saved in the fault history by eight indexes. Faults,
which were saved in indexes 56 … 63 before the acknowledgment, are deleted.
Parameter Description
r0945 Fault code
Displays the numbers of faults that have occurred
r0948 Fault time received in milliseconds
Displays the time in milliseconds when the fault occurred

Examples for operating the converter and motor on a 400 V line supply
Assumption: The motor rating plate states 230/400 V Δ/Y.
Case 1: A motor is normally operated between standstill and its rated speed (i.e. a speed
corresponding to the line frequency). In this case, you need to connect the motor in Y.
Operating the motor above its rated speed is only possible in field weakening, i.e. the motor
torque available is reduced above the rated speed.
Case 2: If you want to operate the motor with the "87 Hz characteristic", you need to connect
the motor in Δ.
With the 87 Hz characteristic, the motor's power output increases. The 87 Hz characteristic
is mainly used with geared motors.
Before you connect the motor, ensure that the motor has the appropriate connection for your
application:
A.3 Parameter
Parameters are the interface between the firmware of the converter and the commissioning
tool, e.g. an Operator Panel.
Adjustable parameters
Adjustable parameters are the "adjusting screws" with which you adapt the converter to its
particular application. If you change the value of an adjustable parameter, then the converter
behavior also changes.
Adjustable parameters are shown with a "p" as prefix, e.g. p1082 is the parameter for the
maximum motor speed.
Display parameters
Display parameters allow internal measured quantities of the converter and the motor to be
read.
The Operator Panel and STARTER represent display parameters with an "r" prefix, for
example, r0027 is the parameter for the converter output current.

Parameter Description
p1310 Voltage boost to compensate ohmic losses
The voltage boost is active from standstill up to the rated speed.
It is at its highest at speed 0 and continually decreases as the speed increases.
Value of the voltage boost at speed 0 in V:

p1311 Voltage boost when accelerating
The voltage boost is effective from standstill up to the rated speed.
It is independent of the speed and has a value in V of:
1.732 × rated motor current (p0305) × stator resistance (p0350) × p1311 / 100%
p1312 Voltage boost when starting
Setting to additionally boost the voltage when starting, however only when accelerating for the first time.
Parameter Description
p1800 Setting the inverter pulse frequency
The pulse frequency depends on the power unit. You can find the setting limits and the factory setting in
Section Technical data, Power Modules (Page 308).
If you increase the pulse frequency, the inverter output current decreases (the maximum output current is
displayed in r0076).
If you use a sine-wave filter, you can only set the pulse frequency to values that are permissible for the
filter.
When operated with an output reactor, the pulse frequency is limited to a maximum of 4 kHz.

Saving settings so that they are not lost when the power fails
The inverter initially only saves changes temporarily. You must do the following so that the
inverter saves your settings securely in the event of a power failure.
Procedure
Proceed as follows to save your settings in the inverter so that they are not lost when the
power fails:
1. Mark the appropriate drive in the project navigator.
2. Click the Save (RAM to ROM) button.
You have saved your settings securely in the inverter in case of a power failure.
Go offline
You can now exit the online connection after the data backup (RAM to ROM) with
"Disconnect from target system".
Description
The trace function is used for inverter diagnostics and helps to optimize the behavior of the
drive. Start the function in the navigation bar using "... Control_Unit/Commissioning/Device
trace".
In two settings that are independent of one another, using you can interconnect eight
signals each. Each signal that you interconnect is active as standard
You can start a measurement as often as required; the results are temporarily stored (until
you exit STARTER) under the "Measurements" tab, together with the date and time. When
terminating STARTER or under the "Measurements" tab, you can save the measurement
results in the *.trc format.
If you require more than two settings for your measurements, you can either save the
individual traces in the project or export them in the *.clg format – and if necessary, load or
import.
Recording
Recording is performed in a CU-dependent basic clock cycle. The maximum recording
duration depends on the number of recorded signals and the trace clock cycle.
You can extend the recording duration by increasing the trace clock cycle by multiplying with
an integer factor and then accepting the displayed maximum duration with . Alternatively,
you can also specify the measurement period and then calculate the trace clock cycle of
STARTER using .
Mathematical function
Using the mathematical function ( ) you can define a curve, for example the difference
between the speed setpoint and the actual speed value.
Note
If you use the "record individual bits" or "mathematical functions" option, then this is
displayed under signal No. 9.
Trigger
You can create your own start condition (trigger) for the trace. With the factory setting
(default setting) the trace starts as soon as you press the button (Start Trace). Using the
button , you can define another trigger to start the measurement.
Using pretrigger, set the time for the recording before the trigger is set. As a consequence,
the trigger condition traces itself.
① Select the bits for the trace trigger, upper row hex format, lower row binary format

In the example, the trace starts if DI0 and DI3 are high and DI2 is low. The state of the other
digital inputs is not relevant for the start of the trace.
Further, you can either set an alarm or fault as start condition.
Display options
In this area, you can set how the measurement results are displayed.
● Repeating measurements
This places the measurements that you wish to perform at different times above one
other.
● Arrange the curves in tracks
This means you define whether the trace of all measured values is displayed with respect
to a common zero line – or to separate zero lines.
● Measuring cursor on
This allows you to analyze the measuring intervals in more detail.
A.6.1 Fundamentals
The following functions are implemented in the converter:
● Open-loop and closed-loop control functions
● Communication functions
● Diagnosis and operating functions
Every function comprises one or several blocks that are interconnected with one another.
Figure A-6 Example: Signal interconnection of two blocks for digital input 0
Figure A-7 Symbols for binector and connector inputs and outputs
Binector/connector outputs (CO/BO) are parameters that combine more than one binector
output in a single word (e.g. r0052 CO/BO: status word 1). Each bit in the word represents a
digital (binary) signal. This summary reduces the number of parameters and simplifies
parameter assignment.
Binector or connector outputs (CO, BO or CO/BO) can be used more than once.
When must you interconnect signals in the converter?
If you change the signal interconnection in the converter, you can adapt the converter to a
wide range of requirements. This does not necessarily have to involve highly complex
functions.
Example 1: Assign a different function to a digital input.
Example 2: Switch the speed setpoint from the fixed speed to the analog input.
How much care is required when you change the signal interconnection?
Always take care when establishing internal signal interconnections. Note which changes
you make as you go along since the process of analyzing them later can be quite difficult.
The STARTER commissioning tool offers signals in plain text and simplifies their
interconnection.
Where can you find additional information?
● This manual is sufficient for simple signal interconnections (e.g. assigning a different
function to digital inputs).
● The parameter list in the List Manual is sufficient for more complex signal
interconnections.
● You can also refer to the function diagrams in the List Manual for complex signal
interconnections.
A.6.2 Example
The signal of digital input 0 (DI 0) is fed through a time block (PDE 0) and is interconnected
with the input of a logic block (AND 0). The signal of digital input 1 (DI 1) is interconnected to
the second input of the logic block. The logic block output issues the ON/OFF1 command to
switch-on the motor.
Parameter Description
p20161 = 5 The time block is enabled by assigning to runtime group 5 (time slice of
128 ms)
p20162 = 430 Run sequence of the time block within runtime group 5 (processing before
the AND logic block)
p20032 = 5 The AND logic block is enabled by assigning to runtime group 5 (time
slice of 128 ms)
p20033 = 440 Run sequence of the AND logic block within runtime group 5 (processing
after the time block)
p20159 = 5000.00 Setting the delay time [ms] of the time module: 5 seconds
p20158 = 722.0 Connect the status of DI 0 to the input of the time block
r0722.0 = Parameter that displays the status of digital input 0.
p20030[0] = 20160 Interconnecting the time block to the 1st input of the AND
p20030[1] = 722.1 Interconnecting the status of DI 1 to the 2nd AND input
r0722.1 = Parameter that displays the status of digital input 1.
p0840 = 20031 Interconnect the AND output to ON/OFF1

You can find additional connection options and connections in separate control cabinets in
the Safety Integrated Function Manual, see Section: Manuals for your inverter (Page 368).
Note
Perform the acceptance test with the maximum possible velocity and acceleration in
order to test the expected maximum braking distances and braking times.
Note
Non-critical alarms
The following alarms are issued following each system ramp-up and are not critical for
acceptance:
• A01697
• A01796
Procedure
To perform an acceptance test of the STO function as part of the basic functions, proceed as
follows:
Status
1. The inverter is ready
• The inverter signals neither faults nor alarms of the safety functions (r0945[0…7],
r2122[0…7]).
• The inverter signals neither faults nor alarms of the safety functions
(r0945[0…7], r2122[0…7]).
• The inverter signals neither faults nor alarms of the safety functions
(r0945[0…7], r2122[0…7]).
