Target audience
This manual is intended for people who plan the drive application control,
commission, use, and service the drive with fieldbus communication. Read the
ACS850 firmware and hardware manuals before working on the drive.
You are expected to know the fundamentals of electricity, wiring and electrical
components as well as drive control methods, fieldbus communication concepts and
function block programming.
Purpose of the manual
The purpose of this manual is to show how to configure fieldbus communication with
the drive control program parameters and, as an example, to show how the drive can
be controlled through fieldbus by using the ABB AC500 programmable logic controller
with PS501 Control Builder.
Contents of the manual
The chapters of this manual are briefly described below.
Introduction to the manual introduces this manual.
Fieldbus control description describes how the drive can be controlled by external
devices over a communication network.
Communication profiles describes the communication profiles used in the
communication between the PROFIBUS network, the FPBA-01 module, and the
drive.
Installation and parameter setup for communication profiles presents the steps to take
during the start-up of the FPBA-01 PROFIBUS DP Adapter Module and the ACS850
drive. The chapter presents examples for different applications such as speed and
torque control, sending reference over fieldbus and scaling.
Starting up fieldbus communication and programming the ABB PLC presents the
steps to take during the start-up of the drive fieldbus control with ABB AC500 PLC and
PROFIBUS DP adapter module. The chapter introduces the communication setup,
the PLC program and visualizations, and explains how to run and test the program.
ACS850 Crane Control Program supplement presents parameter configuration and
utilization demonstrations for ACS850 Crane control program over Profibus DP
fieldbus. Demonstrations contains examples for speed and torque control, stopping
and starting cycles and fault simulation.
Appendix A - How to find out the serial communication parameter values of your PC?
instructs how to find out the serial communication parameter values of your PC.
