Commissioning Guidance - Siemens SINAMICS G120 Operating Instructions Manual

Commissioning guidance

Adapting the converter to the drive application
The converter must match the motor and the drive application to be able to optimally operate
and protect the motor.
Although the converter can be parameterized for very specific applications, many standard
applications function satisfactorily with just a few adaptations.
Use the factory settings ... where possible
In basic applications, the drive already functions with its factory settings. To do this, you
must check whether the motor and application match the factory settings of the converter.
If, when making this check, you identify that you must adapt the factory settings, then you
must commission the converter.
Only the basic commissioning is required ... for basic, standard applications
Most standard applications function after just a few adaptations made during the basic
commissioning.
