Safety notes General Safety Information Proper Use SINAMICS PERFECT HARMONY GH180 medium voltage drives must always be installed in closed electrical operating areas. The drive is connected to the industrial network via a circuit- breaker. The specific transport conditions must be observed when the equipment is transported. The equipment shall be assembled/installed and the separate cabinet units connected properly by cable and/or busbar in accordance with the assembly/installation instructions.
Safety notes 2.2 Safety Concept Safety Concept The medium-voltage variable frequency drive (VFD) and its components are subject to a comprehensive safety concept which, when properly implemented, ensures safe installation, operation, servicing, and maintenance. The safety concept encompasses safety components and functions to protect the device and operators.
Safety notes 2.3 Observing the Five Safety Rules Observing the Five Safety Rules There are five safety rules that must always be observed to assure not only personal safety, but to prevent material damage as well. Always obey safety-related labels located on the product itself and always read and understand each safety precaution prior to operating or working on the drive.
Safety notes 2.4 Safety Information and Warnings Safety Information and Warnings DANGER Hazardous Voltage! ● Always follow the proper lock-out/tag-out procedures before beginning any maintenance or troubleshooting work on the VFD. ● Always follow standard safety precautions and local codes during installation of external wiring.

– for the applications defined as suitable in the technical description. – in combination with equipment and components supplied by other manufacturers which have been approved and recommended by Siemens. Additional safety precautions and warnings appear throughout this manual. These important messages should be followed to reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage.
● Avoid plastic Styrofoam™, vinyl and other non-conductive materials. They are excellent static generators and do not give up their charge easily. ● When returning components to Siemens Industry, Inc. always use static-safe packing. This limits any further component damage due to ESD.
Safety notes 2.5 ESD-sensitive Components ● Avoid physical contact with electronic components. If you need to perform absolutely essential work on these components, then you must wear one of the following protective gear: – Grounded ESD wrist strap – ESD shoes or ESD shoe grounding strips if there is also an ESD floor. ●...
Safety notes 2.6 Electromagnetic Fields in Electrical Power Engineering Installations Electromagnetic Fields in Electrical Power Engineering Installations WARNING Electromagnetic fields "electro smog" when operating electrical power engineering installations Electromagnetic fields are generated during operation of electrical power engineering installations. Electromagnetic fields can interfere with electronic devices, which could cause them to malfunction.
Siemens recommends strongly that you regularly check for product updates. For the secure operation of Siemens products and solutions, it is necessary to take suitable preventive action and integrate each component into a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept.

ControlNet Communication 9.1 Description Description The drive supports ControlNet™ communication via the Anybus-S™ ControlNet™ module. ControlNet™ communication functions in the following way: ● The Anybus-S™ ControlNet™ module is classified as a ControlNet™ adapter, that is, the module cannot originate connections on its own, but a scanner node can open a connection to the module.
ControlNet Communication 9.1 Description Connector The module is equipped with two BNC contacts (Channel A and Channel B) for connection to ControlNet™ as follows: ● For redundant operation: use both Channel A and Channel B connectors ● Otherwise: use connector Channel A or Channel B. MacID Switches The MacID switches must both ALWAYS be set to 0, to allow the control software to set the MacID from the menu.
ControlNet Communication 9.2 Software Programming Software Programming This section provides details for user programming through the SOP. The fixed register bits are defined by the drive's software by default. To reprogram the definition of the bits, complete these steps: Fast Setup: control the drive using user-defined bits 1.

ControlNet Communication 9.2 Software Programming ● The PLC writes the contents of 'Net Input Flag 1', bit 9 (Network1Flag9_I) to create an input medium voltage trip. 9.2.2 Programmable Outputs from the Drive Description There are 64 output bits available for user programming through the SOP file. These bits can be programmed to set or reset any other bits used within the SOP.
Page 223
ControlNet Communication 9.2 Software Programming Example The following example shows how the network can be programmed to detect a trip on the input medium voltage: ● The PLC reads register 'Data from Drive 03', which is programmed to 'Net1 Out Reg 1' using the procedure above.

Glossary AND is a logical Boolean function whose output is true if all of the inputs are true in SOP notation, AND is represented as "∗" (e.g., C=A∗B), although sometimes it may be omitted between operands with the AND operation being implied (e.g., C=AB). ASCII ASCII is an acronym for American Standard Code for Information Interchange, a set of 8-bit computer codes used for the representation of text.

Glossary Comparator A comparator is a device that compares 2 quantities and determines their equality. The comparator submenus allow the programmer to specify two variables to be compared. The results of the custom comparison operations can be used in the system program. Configuration Update see Tool Suite definition.

Glossary DRCTRY Directory file for system tokens and flags used in the compilation of system programs. It provides a direct lookup table of ASCII names to internal ID numbers. It also identifies whether the flag is a word or bit-field, and also whether it can be used as an input or output only, or can be used for both.
Page 326
Glossary Function A function is one of four components found in the menu system. Functions are built-in programs that perform specific tasks. Examples of functions include System Program Upload/Download and Display System Program Name. Harmonics Harmonics are undesirable AC currents or voltages at integer multiples of the fundamental frequency.

Glossary IGBT IGBT is an acronym for Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors. IGBTs are semiconductors that are used in the drive to provide reliable, high-speed switching, high-power capabilities, improved control accuracy, and reduced motor noise. Induction motor An induction motor is an AC motor that produces torque by the reaction between a varying magnetic field (generated in the stator) and the current induced in the coils of the rotor.

Glossary LVD is an acronym for Low Voltage Directive, a safety directive in the EU. Lvl RH This term refers the two security fields associated with each parameter of the system. These fields allow the operator to individually customize specific security features for each menu option (submenu, parameter, pick list, and function).
Page 329
Glossary OR is a logical Boolean function whose output is true if any of the inputs is true. In SOP notation, OR is represented as "+". Parameter A parameter is one of four items found in the menu system. Parameters are system attributes that have corresponding values that can be monitored or, in some cases, changed by the user.

Glossary Torque The force that produces (or attempts to produce) rotation, as in the case of a motor. Uploading Uploading is a process by which information is transmitted from the drive to a remote device such as a PC. The term uploading implies the transmission of an entire file of information (e.g., the system program) rather than continued interactive communications between the two devices.
