The unit must be
permanently earthed
according to EN 50178:
A cross-section conductor
of at least 10mm2is
required.
This can be achieved by
using a single conductor
(PE) or by laying a
second conductor through
separate terminals (PE2
where provided) and
electrically in parallel.

when the thermal switch opens, or when the thermistor resistance exceeds 4kΩ
maximum (PTC Type A : IEC 34-11 Part 2). If the motor does not have a protective
device (thermistor), link these terminals.
The thermistor input C2 must be connected for the drive to run.

Drive Set-Up
IMPORTANT
You must not exceed the maximum drive and motor ratings. Refer to the Product Code or rating label,
and the motor rating plate
The instructions are written in logical order. Complete each stage successfully before progressing to the next.
This simple start-up routine assumes that:
•The Drive is direct from the factory and thus using all factory default settings
•You know how to operate and navigate the Man-Machine Interface (MMI) – keypad + display
•The drive's control terminals are wired as shown in the Installation diagram
•This simple set-up uses ARMATURE VOLTAGE (default setting) as the speed feedback method
1: Pre-Operation Checks
Completely disconnect the drive before point-to-point checking with a buzzer, or when checking insulation with a Megger.
Prepare to energise the drive and system as follows:
•ISOLATE THE DRIVE using branch circuit protection or circuit breaker (8)
•Disconnect the load from the motor shaft, if possible •If there is any doubt about the integrity of a
particular installation, insert a high wattage resistor,
i.e. fire elements, in series with the motor armature
Initial checks before applying power:
•Mains power supply voltage is correct for drive
•Motor vent fan is connected correctly for direction of
rotation
•Auxiliary power supply voltage is correct for drive
and integral fans (110A-270A)
•Motor is of correct armature voltage and current rating •Check for damage to equipment
•Check that cooling fans are intact and free from
obstruction (110A-270A)
•Check all external wiring circuits - power, control,
motor and earth connections
•Check for loose ends, clippings, drilling swarf etc. lodged in the Drive and system
Ensure the safety of the complete system before the drive is energised:
•Ensure that rotation of the motor in either direction will
not cause damage or injury
•Ensure that other equipment will not be adversely
affected by powering up
•Ensure that nobody else is working on another part of the system which will be affected by powering up

2: Calibrating the Control Board

2.2 CONNECT THE AUXILIARY SUPPLY: Remove 3-phase fuses (6). Re-instate branch circuit protection or circuit
breaker (8). Check that the auxiliary voltage is correct. The MMI will now display the Welcome screen.
AUXILIARY POWER ONLY IS CONNECTED AT THIS STAGE
Use a digital voltmeter to check for +24V rail at terminal C9, +10V rail at terminal B3, -10V rail
at terminal B4. The drive will be using the default speed feedback option ARM VOLTS FBK.

Complete steps 3.1 to 3.12
3.1 Write down the MAIN CURR.
LIMIT parameter’s value
here:
.......................................
Set to 0.00%
3.2 Check that ANIN 5 (A6) is
+10V. If not, check the
wiring link between terminals
A6 and B3.
3.3 Save your settings. Press the Ï(UP) key, as instructed.
3.4 With the Program Stop and Coast Stop LEDs illuminated:
Apply the "Start/Run" command to C3.
The main 3-phase contactor should close and remain energised.
Quickly remove the "Start/Run" command from C3.
The main 3-phase contactor should open and remain de-energised.
IMPORTANT
The main contactor should never
be operated by any means other
than the drive's internal controls,
nor should any additional
circuitry be placed around the
contactor coil circuit.
Didn't work? Remove the auxiliary power and check start/stop sequencing and contactor wiring.
3-Phase Alarm? The drive has tripped because there is no 3-phase supply connected. To clear the alarm press
the Ekey. Repeat the test at 3.4 again, but quickly remove the "Start/Run" command before the alarm has time to
initiate.
WARNING
Do not continue until the stop/start circuits and contactor operate correctly.

3.5 ISOLATE THE DRIVE using branch circuit protection or circuit breaker (8). Install the 3-phase fuses (6). Re-instate
branch circuit protection or circuit breaker (8)
IMPORTANT
Do not change any of the previously made calibration settings once the main contactor is energised.
MAIN & AUXILIARY POWER ARE CONNECTED AT THIS STAGE
3.6 Use a Voltmeter that conforms to IEC 61010 (CAT III or higher).
•Set the uni-directional speed potentiometer to zero
(check that the value of SPEED SETPOINT parameter = 0 %)
•Apply the "Start/Run" command to C3.
•Ensure that "Enable" (C5) is ON.
0+100
Zero speed =
Terminal A1,
0V input
•Check that 3-phase mains is applied to the power terminals L1, L2 and L3.
•Check the correct field voltage appears between the field output terminals D3 and D4. This is high voltage DC.
Proceed with caution.
•If the Field Voltage is incorrect do not continue. Switch off all supplies and check connections.
3.7 Check that all six MMI LEDs are now lit, indicating that the motor is capable of rotating.
START (C3 = 24V)
The drive can run provided that:
B8 & B9 are TRUE (+24V)
C5 “Enable” is ON (+24V)
MAIN CURR. LIMIT ≠0
Speed Setpoint ≠0
STOP (C3 = 0V)
At 20% setpoint:
the 590C drive (4Q) can stop in approximately 2 seconds (the drive
decelerates the motor to zero speed at a rate determined by the
STOP TIME and MAIN CURR.LIMIT parameter values)
the 591C drive (2Q) can coast stop

Caution
During the following set-up instructions, be ready to STOP the drive should the motor try to overspeed.
3.8 Set the speed potentiometer to 5% (0.5V at terminal A8).
3.9 Refer back to 3.1 to display the CONFIGURE DRIVE menu. Slowly increase the MAIN
CURR.LIMIT parameter towards a maximum of 20%. At some point the motor will begin to
rotate as the parameter value is increased. The motor speed will settle at 5% of full speed.
If the motor is loaded it may require more than 20% current limit to turn the motor.
3.10 Stop the drive by opening C3. Now Autotune the drive.
4: Autotuning
This process tunes the drive to the connected motor. Initial conditions must be:
•Main contactor open, i.e. terminal C3 = 0V
•Program Stop (terminal B8), Coast Stop (terminal B9)
and Enable (terminal C5) high, i.e. 24V.
•No field voltage: Autotune automatically quenches the
(default) internally supplied field.
4.1 Set AUTOTUNE to
ARMATURE.
4.2 Close the main contactor (apply the "Start/Run"
command to C3) to begin the Autotune.
•The keypad displays “Autotuning” during the process. When Autotune is complete (after approximately 10 seconds),
the main contactor is opened and the AUTOTUNE parameter is reset to OFF. Ensure that "Enable" (C5) is OFF.
4.3 Perform a PARAMETER SAVE now. Refer back to 3.3 for how to do this.
The drive is powered-up and operating using Armature Volts Feedback.

ENCODER LINES 24 10 to 5000
The number of lines must be set to match the type of encoder being used.
Incorrect setting of this parameter will result in an erroneous speed measurement.
The 5901 microtach has 1000 lines per revolution as standard. Proprietary encoders
