Initial Drive Start - Parker 590+ DRV Product Manual

Initial Drive Start

Before starting the drive for the first time, make sure that your motor is uncoupled from the load, or ensure
Now start the drive using the keypad in local mode. This eliminates the configuration but uses the safety interlocks and allows the user to check the
feedback polarity, motor speed, motor rotation, etc. The drive will not Autotune if it can't run the motor.
1. Press the L/R key to switch to Local Mode. The SEQ and REF LEDs on the keypad will be ON.
2. Use the arrow keys to set REF: to 0.00%.
3. Press the Start key, the motor will start but will not turn.
4. Use meter to check the field volts. The meter should read the calibrated value for field volts which should match the motor nameplate.
Motor Rotation Check
1. Use the arrow keys to increase REF: to 10%. The motor will rotate at that speed.
2. Observe the motor direction.
If the motor does not turn at all, check that you have proper connections to terminals A6 (CURRENT LIMIT), B8 (PROGRAM STOP), B9
(COAST STOP), and C5 (ENABLE). Each of these signals can be monitored in the DIAGNOSTICS menu on the keypad. Missing any of these
will prevent the drive from starting or running.
Did the motor run in the wrong direction? If yes, the field polarity is incorrect. Stop the drive, disconnect all power supplies and external field
supply (if used) and reverse the field connections (F+ and F-).
3. Use a meter to check armature volts. The meter should read 10% of the calibrated value (for example, 50 VDC for a 500 VDC motor).
Monitor DIAGNOSTIC::CURRENT FEEDBACK. If CURRENT FEEDBACK still reads 0.00%, turn the power off and check the armature
connections. If the problem persists, refer to Chapter 7 for detailed troubleshooting information.
