Adding the VSM10 Voltage Sensing Module

Voltage Sensing Modules (VSM) can be used for 2 different drive objects:
● Infeed unit
Is used for voltage measurement, e.g. for the "mains transformer" function.
A VSM10 allows an exact recording of the line voltage curve and supports the fault-free
operation of the Line Modules in unfavorable network conditions.
● Motor Modules of the VECTOR type
Required for the functions "synchronize" and "flying restart".
Note
Voltage Sensing Modules are inserted automatically with Active Line Modules of chassis
format.
Requirement
● A project has been created.
● The Control Unit is inserted in the device configuration.
● An infeed is available.
Alternatively: A Motor Module of drive object type VECTOR is available.
Inserting a VSM in a drive object
1. Open "Supplementary system components > Voltage Sensing Modules" in the hardware
catalog.
2. Select the "VSM10 Voltage Sensing Module" in the device overview.
3. Drag the "Voltage Sensing Module VSM10" into the device view on the infeed unit, or
alternatively on a VECTOR-type Motor Module.
