3. Setup for the communication option cards
3. 6. 5. Configuring the drive in "ATV58(F) Interchangeability" mode
This card has been designed exclusively for replacement of an Altivar 58(F), hence the "ATV58(F) interchangeability" mode is implicit and,
therefore, no switch needs to be activated on the card.
Configuring the drive control mode
Configure the control mode applied to the drive in the [1.6 – COMMAND] (CtL-) menu on the graphic display terminal, the integrated
display terminal or the PowerSuite software workshop.
[Profile] (CHCF) = [8 serie] (SE8) before installing the option card, otherwise an EPF2 fault will appear.
The PowerSuite software workshop will activate 8 serie mode once the configuration has been transferred to the drive.
3. 6. 6. PLC configuration and application
In PL7 or Unity, the drive configuration remains the same as that of the original Altivar 58. Any configuration parameters that no longer exist
in the Altivar 71 are nonetheless accepted in write mode (positive report) or read-only mode (the current value is returned).
3. 6. 7. Restrictions and incompatibilities
Bits 11, 12 and 13 of monitoring parameter %IW\p.2.c\0.0.3 (IOLR) are now reserved bits (inactive).
As a result, the following data is no longer available:
• Image of the red LED (%IW\p.2.c\0.0.3 :X11)
• Image of the charge relay (%IW\p.2.c\0.0.3 :X12)
• Image of the braking transistor (%IW\p.2.c\0.0.3 :X13)
Bits 0 and 15 of monitoring parameter %IW\p.2.c\0.0.6 (DF1) are now reserved bits (inactive).
As a result, the following data is no longer available:
• "Incorrect calibration constants (INF)" fault
• "Charge relay command loss (CRF)" fault
• The adjustment ranges of parameters IBR, IDC and UFR are different for the Altivar 58(F) and the Altivar 71. These values vary according
to the rating of each drive. Make sure, therefore, that you adapt the value of these parameters. Otherwise, the PL7 Pro software workshop
will display an error message.
• SPC parameter: It is essential to set parameter OPL to NO so that SPC can be modified. Otherwise, the PL7 Pro software workshop will
display an error message.
• SFR parameter: The Altivar 58 accepted the value 0.5 kHz; this value is not compatible with the Altivar 71, whose minimum value is 1 kHz.
Make sure, therefore, that you modify the value of SFR, otherwise the PL7 Pro software workshop will display an error message.
• CFG parameter: An Altivar 58(F) can only be replaced with an Altivar 71 when used in constant torque applications. As a result the
assignment CFG = VT is prohibited; use a drive from the Altivar 61 range.
• TFR parameter: The Altivar 58 equipped with a VW3 A58301 Fipio card had a particular type of operation.
It was possible for the value of the HSP parameter to be higher than that of the TFR parameter.
This is no longer the case with the Altivar 71, which adopts a pedestal value for HSP. Make sure, therefore, that you adapt the value of
these parameters. Otherwise, the PL7 Pro or Unity software workshop will display an error message.
3. 6. 8. Managing loss of Fipio communication
The Altivar 71 VW3 A3 301 Fipio card, compatible with the Altivar 58(F), will respond to loss of communication with the Fipio master in the
same way as the Altivar 58 VW3-A58301 Fipio card:
When the drive is disconnected from the Fipio bus, the CNF fault is not activated and the motor will stop on a ramp.
3. 6. 9. Communication fault
Fipio communication faults are indicated by the red RD LED on the card.
The
[Network fault] (CnF-) parameter can be used to obtain more detailed information about the origin of the fault. It can only be
accessed on the graphic display terminal, in the
[1.10 DIAGNOSTICS] (dGt-) menu, [MORE FAULT INFO] (AFI-).
Value Description of the values of the [Network fault] (CnF-) parameter
0 No fault
1 Initialization fault on the Fipio card (hardware problem)
2 Time out for receipt of periodic variables destined for the drive. This time out can be set by the network configuration software.
3 Hardware fault on the Fipio card
4 Hardware fault on the Fipio card
5 Master PLC changes from Run to STOP
