Parker Variable Speed Drive AC30 series. User’s Manual (2017)

Parameter Reference

D-49

Functional Description

During a fast deceleration, the kinetic energy of the motor load is regenerated to the drive, charging the DC link capacitors.
When the

VDC Lim Level

is reached, the speed septoint is held, waiting for the DC link to go below

VDC Lim Level

When the DC link falls below this level, the speed setpoint is released and is ramped down using system ramp deceleration.
This sequence is run until the speed septoint reaches the user speed demand.

By Default,

VDC Lim Level

is set to the same value as the braking threshold.

This feature is run at a rate of 1 milli-second.

When a parameter is modified via the GKP or via the built-in web page the parameter value is saved automatically. When a parameter
is modified via another source, (for example via the Modbus TCP/IP communications protocol), the value will not be saved
automatically. In this case a save may be instigated by changing this parameter from FALSE to TRUE.

erroneous speed measurement.

Encoder Invert

it if necessary. It is possible to do this manually, by attempting to run the motor, and changing the parameter if necessary until the
motor is controlled correctly.
