The rst power-up takes approximately 3 minutes.
During this time, all data is transferred to the new drive.
2.2.2 Copying Data via PC and Memory
Module Programmer (MMP)
By using a PC and the MMP, it is possible to create several
memory modules with the same data. These memory
modules can then be inserted in several VLT®DriveMotor
FCP 106.
Examples of data that can be copied are:
•Firmware
•Parameter set-up
•Pump curves
While running, the download status is visible on the
screen.
1. Connect an FCP 106 to a PC.

2.3 Control Structures
In parameter 1-00 Conguration Mode, select whether open loop or closed-loop control applies.
2.3.1 Control Structure Open Loop
In the conguration shown in Illustration 2.13, parameter 1-00 Conguration Mode is set to [0] Open loop. The resulting
reference from the reference handling system or the local reference is received and fed through the ramp limitation and
speed limitation. After that, it is sent to the motor control. The output from the motor control is then limited by the
maximum frequency limit.

2.3.2 Control Structure Closed Loop (PI)
The internal controller allows the drive to become a part of the controlled system. The drive receives a feedback signal from
a sensor in the system. It then compares this feedback to a setpoint reference value and determines the dierence, if any,
between these 2 signals. It then adjusts the speed of the motor to correct this dierence.
For example, consider a pump application controlling the speed of a pump to ensure a constant static pressure in a pipe.
The desired static pressure value is supplied to the drive as the setpoint reference. A static pressure sensor measures the
actual static pressure in the pipe and supplies this data to the drive as a feedback signal. If the feedback signal is greater
than the setpoint reference, the drive reduces speed to reduce the pressure. In a similar way, if the pipe pressure is lower
than the setpoint reference, the drive automatically speeds up to increase the pump pressure.

While the default values for the closed-loop controller often provide satisfactory performance, the control of the system can
often be optimized by adjusting the closed-loop controller parameters.
2.4 Local [Hand On] and Remote [Auto On] Control
Operate the drive manually via the local control panel
(LCP) or remotely via analog/digital inputs or eldbus.
Start and stop the drive pressing the [Hand On] and [O/
Reset] keys on the LCP. Set-up is required:
•Parameter 0-40 [Hand on] Key on LCP.
•Parameter 0-44 [O/Reset] Key on LCP.
•Parameter 0-42 [Auto on] Key on LCP.
Reset alarms via the [O/Reset] key or via a digital input,
when the terminal is programmed to Reset.

Illustration 2.16 Block Diagram Showing Remote Reference
The remote reference comprises:
•Preset references
•External references (analog inputs and serial
communication bus references)
•The preset relative reference
•Feedback-controlled setpoint
Up to 8 preset references can be programmed in the drive.
Select the active preset reference using digital inputs or
the serial communications bus. The reference can also be
supplied externally, most commonly from an analog input.
Select this external source via the 3 reference source
parameters:
•Parameter 3-15 Reference 1 Source
•Parameter 3-16 Reference 2 Source
•Parameter 3-17 Reference 3 Source
Sum all reference resources and the bus reference to
produce the total external reference. Select the external
reference, the preset reference, or the sum of the 2 as the
active reference. Finally, this reference can be scaled by
using parameter 3-14 Preset Relative Reference.
The scaled reference is calculated as follows:
