Operation
What this chapter contains
The chapter describes the operation of the control panel.
Basics of operation
You operate the control panel with menus and keys. The keys include two context-
sensitive soft keys, whose current function is indicated by the text shown in the
display above each key.
You select an option, e.g. operation mode or parameter, by entering the MENU state
using soft key 2, and then by scrolling the and arrow keys until the option
is highlighted and then pressing the relevant soft key. With the right soft key you
usually enter a mode, accept an option or save the changes. The left soft key is used
to cancel the made changes and return to the previous operation level.
The Control Panel has ten options in the Main menu: Parameters, Assistants,
Changed Par, Fault Logger, Time & Date, Parameter Backup, I/O Settings,
Reference Edit, Drive Info and Parameter Change Log. In addition, the control panel
has an Output mode, which is used as default. Also, when a fault or alarm occurs,
the panel goes automatically to the Fault mode showing the fault or alarm. You can
reset the fault in the Output or Fault mode. The operation in these modes and
options is described in this chapter.

Operation
16
Initially, the panel is in the Output mode, where you can
start, stop, change the direction, switch between local and
remote control, modify the reference value and monitor up
to three actual values. To do other tasks, go first to the
Main menu and select the appropriate option on the
menu. The status line (see section Status line on page 11)
shows the name of the current menu, mode, item or state.
List of tasks
The table below lists common tasks, the mode in which you can perform them,
abbreviations of the options in the Main menu and the page number where the steps
to do the task are described in detail.

Basic operations – Any mode
How to start, stop and switch between local and remote control
You can start, stop and switch between local and remote control in any mode. To be
able to start or stop the drive by using the control panel, the drive must be in local
control.
Step Action Display
1. • To switch between remote control (REM shown on the status line) and local
control (LOC shown on the status line), press .
Note: Switching to local control can be disabled with parameter 1601 LOCAL
LOCK.
The very first time the drive is powered up, it is in remote control (REM) and
controlled through the drive I/O terminals. To switch to local control (LOC) and
control the drive using the control panel, press . The result depends on
how long you press the key:
•If you release the key immediately (the display flashes “Switching to the local
control mode”), the drive stops. Set the local control reference as instructed
on page 20.
•If you press the key for about two seconds, the drive continues running as
before. The drive copies the current remote values for the run/stop status
and the reference, and uses them as the initial local control settings.
• To stop the drive in local control, press . The arrow ( or ) on the
status line stops rotating.
• To start the drive in local control, press . The arrow ( or ) on the
status line starts rotating. It
is dotted until the drive
reaches the setpoint.

• monitor actual values of up to three signals
• change the direction of the motor rotation
• set the speed, frequency, torque or position reference
• adjust the display contrast
• start, stop, change the direction and switch between local and remote control.
You get to the Output mode by pressing repeatedly.
The top right corner of the display shows the reference
value. The center can be configured to show up to three
signal values or bar graphs; see page 27 for instructions

How to change the direction of the motor rotation
Step Action Display
1. If you are not in the Output mode, press repeatedly until you get there.
2. If the drive is in remote control (REM shown on the status line), switch to local
control by pressing . The display briefly shows a message about changing
the mode and then returns to the Output mode.
3. To change the direction from forward ( shown on the status line) to reverse (
shown on the status line), or vice versa, press .
