This parameter indicates the status of the cloning process.

Enumerated Value : Power Parameters

0 : IDLE

- waiting for the user to start the cloning process.

1: SAVING

- in the process of saving the drive configuration to file.

2 : RESTORING

- in the process of loading the configuration from file.

3 : VERIFYING

- in the process of verifying the clone file either before a load or after a save.

4 : DONE

- the cloning process has completed successfully either for a load or a save.

5 : CANNOT START

- the cloning process cannot start. When restoring a configuration the drive must be stopped.

6 : FAILED

- general failure of the cloning process.

7 : NO SD CARD

- no SD card is fitted.

8 :RS FAILURE

- could not restore the parameters. E.g. the parameters are missing from the clone file.

Notes:

1) The clone file only contains the parameters that were stored in non-volatile memory on the drive when a clone save was

performed. When performing a clone load and a full restore is performed or a LOAD FROM FILE is used for the parameters,
then any parameter not previously saved in the file will be set to its defaults.

2)  Each application parameter is restored only if the parameter definition on the target drive matches the saved parameter.
3)  The clone saving process will take between 3 – 15 seconds depending on the type of SD card used.
4)  When saving a file with the same filename as an existing file on the SD card, the existing file will be overwritten. To prevent

this, use a PC to set the read-only attribute of the file.

5) During the clone loading process the GKP screen may blank momentarily.

selecting ENCODER FEEDBACK will give a trip.

This parameter allows selects between sensorless control, and control using encoder feedback.

If an encoder feedback is available, it would normally be the preferred choice as it gives better speed control and higher performance.

STOPPED

This parameter will only become visible if Control Strategy is set to Vector Control and Control Type is set to Encoder Feedback, and
the drive is an AC30P/D

The parameter selects between encoder inputs :

MAIN SPD FEEDBACK : encoder option fitted or resolver option fitted. It corresponds to the option fitted in the I/O options. If selected,
the I/O option has to be set up in the corresponding option ( Resolver or Encoder )

SYSTEM BOARD SLOT 1 : encoder connected on SLOT1 if AC30D

SYSTEM BOARD SLOT 2 : encoder connected on SLOT 2 if AC30D

NONE : no encoder connected – corresponds to SENSORLESS control selected

If an encoder is available, encoder feedback control would normally be the preferred choice as it gives better speed control and higher
performance.

Functional Description

The motor selection is the first step in setting the control mode.

The selection of control strategy comes next, with the permitted settings as follows:

Induction motors can be run in either volts hertz mode or vector mode

Permanent magnet motors can only be run in vector control mode

If vector control is selected, and an encoder option or a resolver option is fitted, it is then necessary to choose whether to select vector control with
encoder feedback for improved performance.

Parameter Reference

Current Limit

Parameters::Motor Control::Current Limit

Designed for all Motor Control Modes

This function allows you to set the maximum level of motor rated current (as a % of the user-set

Motor Current

) which is allowed to flow before

current limit action occurs. If the measured motor current exceeds the current limit value with a motoring load, the motor speed is reduced to control
the excess load. If the measured motor current exceeds the current limit value with a regenerating load, the motor speed is increased up to a
maximum of

100% Speed in RPM (Scale Setpoint).

The maximum value of current limit for a particular motor is limited by the AC30V current rating.

If a motor of larger rating than the AC30V is connected, then the current limit max value is limited by the AC30V current rating.

If a motor of lower rating than the AC30V is connected, then the current limit max value is limited to 300% (if compatible with the AC30V current
rating) for an induction motor (IM) and to the ratio

PMAC Max Current

PMAC Rated Current

Row 1

The control module serial number

Row 2

column headings

Row 3...

Time stamp, Notes and the data points.

Time stamp

The Time stamp format depends whether the parameter

1186 Time and Date

is valid and updating. This will typically be the case if an option with a

Real Time Clock is fitted. It is also possible to keep this parameter valid over Ethernet. If the time and date is valid the time stamp will be in the
format illustrated above. To display this format correctly in Excel it may be necessary to force the format of this column to be Custom, using this
format string: “dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss.000”.
If the time and date value is not valid, the time stamp will be the age of the control card, expressed as a value in seconds with three decimal places,
(giving resolution to one milli-second).

Notes

The notes column indicates a log event. The notes are:
