GV6000 AC Drive User Manual
The GV6000 lifting application is mainly influenced by parameters 600 through 611 in
the Torque Proving group of the Application file. Figure 13.3 and the paragraphs that
follow describe programming.
Torque Proving
When the drive receives a start command to begin a lifting operation, the following
actions occur:
Step 1. The drive first performs a transistor diagnostic test to check for
phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground shorts. A failure status from either of
these tests will result in a drive fault and the brake relay will NOT be
energized (brake remains set).
Step 2. The drive will then provide the motor with flux as well as perform a check for
current flow through all three motor phases. This ensures that torque will be
delivered to the load when the mechanical brake is released. When torque
proving is enabled, open phase loss detection is performed regardless of the
setting of Bit 12 of Fault Config 1(238).
Step 3. If the drive passes all tests, the brake will be released and the drive will take
control of the load after the programmed time in Brk Release Time (604)
which is the typical mechanical release time of the brake.
Brake Proving
When the drive receives a stop command to end a lifting operation, the following
actions occur:
Step 1. The brake is commanded closed when the speed of the motor reaches zero.
