  • Page 15 Carefully remove any packing material from around the drive. Save the box and foam inserts in case you ever need to return the drive. Improper packaging can cause transit damage. Remove the drive from its packing case. Do not attempt to lift or move the drive by its terminal connections. Lift the drive instead by its heatsink and lay the drive on a flat surface.
  • Page 17 The photo in Figure 2.1 shows the parts of the 590SP Digital Drive. The drive consists of three main parts: a control board, a power board and four thyristor, or silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) packs mounted on an aluminum heat sink.
  • Page 19 Operation above 55°C (131°F) is not recommended. The 590SP is designed to mount directly onto a vertical, flat surface through four slots on the side of the heatsink. Refer to the outline drawing in Figure 3.2 for mounting centers and hardware recommendations. Supply and motor connections are made to the bottom of the drive's power board.
  • Page 21 DC motor overload protection. Code Instructions in this manual apply to a 590SP Digital drive configured for general purpose, speed control of a shunt or permanent magnet field DC motor. Wiring configurations for custom systems or for optional applications are too numerous and complex to include here. For system configu- rations, refer to the schematics shipped with those systems.
  • Page 22 Signal Wire Ratings and control power wiring must be 18 gauge or larger. The ground connection for the 590SP is at the bottom left corner of the heatsink (refer to Figure 3.5). The ground connection requires 10 AWG (4 Supply Ground ) wire minimum, terminated with a ring lug crimp.

Appendix G also contains general information for using P3 to upload and download drive parameters. To safeguard the parameters you have set with the MMI, you can configure the 590 DRV in a password-protected mode. At the initial power up, the DISPLAY PASSWORD command is automatically cleared to zero.
  • Page 42 Most drive problems are encountered during commissioning or soon after start-up. Problems frequently result from incorrect installation or errors in configuring the drive. If you encounter a problem upon initial start up of your 590SP Digital drive, review the installation procedures in Chapter 3 and the start up and adjustment procedures in Chapter 4.
  • Page 43 You will need the following tools for most troubleshooting procedures: • Voltmeter • Megger If available, the following tools can provide more detailed information for problem-solving: • Oscilloscope • Hand tachometer You may also need screwdrivers and/or wrenches to restore electrical connections that are incorrect or have come loose. Six light emitting diode [LED] indicators are located just to the right of the MMI display.
  • Page 44 All six LEDs are ON under normal running conditions. Figure 5.2 shows the LED states after common actions and other faults occur. An unlit LED indicates a problem that prevents controller operation and requires user attention. The table in Figure 5.3 shows what to check when an LED is off.
  • Page 45 "controller healthy" logic variable. This variable corresponds to the ALARM STATUS software block output HEALTHY (tag number 122). The default shipped drive configuration of the 590SP Digital drive tags the HEALTHY logic parameter to digital O/P 2 (terminal B6).
  • Page 51 If a symbolic message appears, cycle power on the controller to clear the fault. If the message repeats, call Eurotherm Drives Customer Service. The hexadecimal code for the first alarm is saved in HEALTH STORE. HEALTH STORE resets when the drive is restarted.
  • Page 52 This example shows how HEALTH WORD, HEALTH STORE, and LAST ALARM are updated. During operation, the controller trips on P3 PORT ALARM (0x0800), the drive loses three-phase power when an SCR fuse blows (0x0200) and the motor overheats causing the thermistor to open (0x0010). HEALTH WORD is: 0x0800 + 0x0200 + 0x0010 = 0x0A10.
  • Page 53 Many signals can be monitored in the MMI display. The diagnostic parameters are "read-only" and are very useful for tracing configuration problems. The following tables contain a description of each parameter and its range. Parameters denoted with an asterisk (*) are the controller's analog or digital I/O. The drive has been shipped with its I/O tagged to the parameter listed in the description field.
  • Page 55 This section contains troubleshooting information and a flowchart for identifying and correcting hardware problems in the 590SP Digital drive. NOTE. Repair of the 590SP is limited basic part replacement only. Troubleshooting and electronic component replacement at the board level is not recommended. Only the control and power boards, the control fuse F1 and the SCR packs are designed to be replaced.

  • Page 57 The drive controls the coil of the external contactor through a contact off its internal start relay. If the drive uses an AC contactor and there is a problem with the contactor coil or if the internal drive start relay is faulty, the drive should immediately trigger a MAIN SUPPLY FAILED alarm when it is started.
  • Page 58 Non-regenerative drives contain two SCR packs, SP3 and SP4, each containing two thyristors. Regenerative drives have two additional SCR packs, SP2 and SP1. The layout of the SCR packs is shown in Figure 5.17. The SCR packs are shown as they appear on the drive heatsink, from left to right. The thyristor gate leads, two per SCR pack, are oriented nearest to the top of the heatsink.
  • Page 59 Because you can make configuration changes through the drive MMI, the configuration downloaded in your 590SP may not match the ConfigEd Lite file on your PC. Be certain to update your drive configuration data files with the ConfigEd Lite UPDATE command before printing out your configuration.

  • Page 62 Because of its solid state design, the 590SP Digital drive has few items requiring service or maintenance. Service is typically a matter of basic modular component replacement, checking electrical connections and isolating problems in overall system applications. Service procedures must be performed by qualified personnel with an understanding of the dangers inherent in high voltage applications and the precautions necessary when servicing industrial equipment.
  • Page 63 The 590SP consists of five distinct parts: • Cover • Control board • Power board • SCR Thyristor packs • Controller heatsink An assembly diagram is shown in Figure 6.1. The cover is attached to the drive by four captive M4 screws into silver colored, hexagonal standoffs at each corner of the board.
  • Page 64 Hold the drive in place with one hand and remove the top two screws, then lift the drive off of the bottom two screws. Part replacement of the 590SP is limited only to the control fuse F1, control and power boards, and thyristor SCR packs. Do not replace any component on the control or power board.
  • Page 68 • Analog to digital conversion The 590SP provides DC armature control by either a fully regenerative (four quadrant), two-pulse thyristor bridge or a non-regenerative (two quadrant), two-pulse thyristor bridge. Each type of bridge includes suppression to limit the rise of volts across the thyristor, thus reducing the risk of false triggering and keeping the maximum applied voltage within the thyristor rating limits.

  • Page 78 Both the standard and DRV models of the 590SP Digital drive are preconfigured to run in armature voltage feedback control, which requires no feedback device. Accordingly, each is shipped without a feedback option card. Order one of the four cards described below when using an analog tachometer generator, Microtach or wired-ended encoder for speed feedback.
  • Page 79 The 5701 Microtach Receiver Option is used with the 5701 Microtach encoder to provide a highly accurate speed feedback measurement. The option uses the Eurotherm Drives patented fiber optic 5701 encoder output transmission circuitry for noise immune data transfer over plastic fiber optic cable.
  • Page 80 This option contains ESD sensitive parts. Observe static control precautions when handling, installing, and servicing this option. 1. Use the Fiber Optic Cable Cutter (LA385204) to dress the fiber optic cable connecting to the option card. The cable must be cleanly and squarely cut to work properly. The Microtach encoder end of the fiber optic cable requires a red fiber optic plug (CI055069) for termination.
  • Page 81 The 5901 Microtach Receiver Option is used with the 5901 Microtach encoder to provide highly accurate speed feedback measurement. It provides all the features of the 5701 Microtach with the additional advantage of glass fiber optic cable. A convenient board-mounted plug-in terminal block and fiber optic receiver terminal are provided for field connections.
  • Page 82 This option contains ESD sensitive parts. Observe static control precautions when handling, installing, and servicing this option. 1. Use the connector kit JA352597 to properly terminate ST terminals to both ends of the glass fiber optic cable. Each ST terminal requires a cleave crimp, a cable anchor and crimp sleeve. 2 After attaching the cable ST terminals, connect the cable to the Microtach and receiver card.
  • Page 83 The Encoder Receiver Option allows standard encoders to be connected directly to the motor controller and to provide highly accurate speed feedback measurement. It mounts directly to the Main Control Board by means of four support standoffs and a 10-pin interface connector built into the board. A convenient board-mounted plug-in terminal block is provided for field connections.

Also refer to drawing HG351946, the Installation Notes which are shipped with the card. Exercise special care wiring the encoders to the option board due to the low signal levels.
  • Page 85 Models E25, H25 and L25 use encoders with the 12 or 15 VDC supply. Use the M16 plug columns for connecting E25, H25, L25 and H40 encoders. The table below lists the series of Dynapar Optical Encoders compatible with the Encoder Receiver Option. Use encoders with the line driver output for 12 or 15 VDC operation.
  • Page 86 The Man Machine Interface (MMI) is the primary tool for communicating with the 590SP Digital drive. It allows the user to custom configure the drive, tune it for optimal performance and monitor its operation and diagnostic points. The MMI consists of a two-line alphanumeric liquid crystal display (LCD) and a four-button keypad mounted on the front of the drive.
  • Page 87 RAMPS, AUX I/O, etc. The 590SP is shipped with MMI settings that represent a common set of parameters for general use. These settings are listed in Appendix C. Use caution when modifying these settings to ensure the new settings are the most appropriate for your situation.
  • Page 90 The shipping configuration in the 590 DRV Digital drive allows the user to start up and run a DC motor in simple speed control. The power of the 590SP, however, is its configurability and its ability to be tuned for optimum perfor- mance or for a specific control application.

The communication mode conforms to the following American National Standard definition: ANSI standard x3.28 Revision 1976 Establishment and Termination Control Procedures Subcategory 2.5 Two-way Alternate, Non switched Multipoint with Centralized Operation and Fast Select.
  • Page 175 The 590SP or associated Eurotherm instrument has an address, the first digit being the “group” number (GID) in the range 0 to 7, the second a “unit” number (UID) in the range 0 to F. This yields 128 different addresses from 00 to FF.
  • Page 176 The 590SP uses an ASCII free-format mode of operation for data transfer to make it easy to implement with languages such as BASIC, PASCAL, FORTRAN, and assembler languages. As a result, users can create simple supervisory systems to run on an IBM PC.
  • Page 177 The computer initially has master status, with the 590SP in slave status. It begins by transmitting a message, known as the “establish connection” message, which is represented by the following format: (EOT) (GID) (GID) (UID) (UID) (CI) (C2) (ENQ) These symbols are defined as follows:...
  • Page 178 Parameter specified by mnemonic (D1 to DN) Value of the requested parameter (the string may be of any length as determined by the data). The 590SP responds with the shortest message which represents the data value. If the data value is an integer (decimal part is 0), then it does not send a decimal point.
  • Page 179 Under certain circumstances, the computer may not receive a response from the 590SP. This could be due to any of the following reasons: i. Group/Unit address identifiers are not recognized. ii. An error (for example parity) is found in one or more of the characters up to and including (ENQ).
  • Page 180 If the message fails any of the above checks, the 590SP sends (NAK) response to the computer. This signifies that the message received by the 590SP contained an error and it has not updated the parameter. At this point, the computer may repeat the command by sending the data transfer string without reestablishing connection until it receives an (ACK) response.
  • Page 181 (ETB) End of block character. The 590SP sends it instead of the (ETX) when it wishes to reply to a multi parameter inquiry. The (ETB) indicates the end of a block, but not the end of a message. Each block contains information on up to eight parameters.

  • Page 248 SC provides the drive with control features required for a line drive section. SC uses drive terminals for all inputs and outputs, both analog and digital. These terminals may need to be re-configured depending on the functions required for the particular application. A typical web process line will have a master or lead drive that sets the speed of the line and other slave drives which follow in a variety of ways.
  • Page 249 Draw controls speed but does not directly control tension. Tension control uses an outer control loop to adjust the section speed. The loadcell provides the feedback signal for the control loop. Speed is adjusted to keep the feedback signal from the loadcell at a fixed value, the tension setpoint.
  • Page 250 The Raise/Lower function uses digital inputs to increase and decrease Draw, Ratio, or Tension. This permits gauge controls or other automatic systems with logic outputs to connect directly with the drive. These parameters are located in the SYSTEM::CONFIGURE I/O menu. RAMP O/P DEST = 309 SETPOINT SUM 1:: INPUT 0...
  • Page 252 10 to 90 percent, the setpoint would be 50 percent. The tension feedback signal from a loadcell must be scaled using a loadcell amplifier, such as the Eurotherm Drives 5530/1 or 5530/2, before connecting into terminal A6, TENSION FEEDBACK, on the 590SP. At full tension, the out- put should be adjusted to read +9 volts to allow 10 percent overrange.
  • Page 253 The following procedures describe a methodology for starting and tuning a tension control line drive section. The first steps assure the drive section parts are calibrated correctly. The PID setup steps tune the section for best performance. 1. Set all the PID parameters to the default values (see Appendix H). Check PID settings 2.
  • Page 254 For dancer applications, the feedback signal should be connected to be more positive when the web is tight and less positive when the web is slack. In this arrangement, dancer feedback will increase the speed when the web is slack. The trim range value depends on the nature of the web.
  • Page 255 Analog inputs and outputs may not provide adequate precision or stability. The digital 590SP's speed accuracy can be greatly improved by direct, serial connection between drives using the 5703 Peer-to-Peer interface (catalog number 655-RS232). This interface should be used with digital speed feedback from an encoder or the 5701 optical encoder.
  • Page 256 Ratio mode sets the section speed to the line speed multiplied by the ratio input. To select ratio mode, set SETPOINT SUM 1:: RATIO 0 to 0.00 percent. Terminal A4, LINE SPEED REFERENCE, supplies the line speed signal. Termi- nal A2, DRAW/RATIO, receives the ratio setpoint. It is multiplied by the line speed to produce the speed demand. The maximum range of terminal A2 is -300 to +300 percent.
  • Page 257 The motor rotation can be reversed by terminal C8, REVERSE. This SC configuration only works when in torque, draw, or ratio mode. To provide a section reverse ability for tension feedback modes, change the configuration to route the line speed reference and trim signals through SETPOINT SUM 1 parameters INPUT 0 and INPUT 1. If it is necessary to ensure that a section does not reverse, even if reversing would be required to maintain tension or dancer position, then use the Anti-reverse function.
  • Page 258 INPUT, tag 262. The output of the Raise/Lower function is connected to SETPOINT SUM 1:: RATIO 1, tag 6, or SETPOINT SUM 2:: INPUT 0, tag 444. The analog input that is replaced, either A2, DRAW/RATIO or A5, TEN- SION SETPOINT, must have its destination tag set to zero. When using loadcell tension control, the PID trim loop O/P SCALER (TRIM) needs to be higher for extensible web than for non-extensible web.
