Vector control
7.6.2.1
Properties of vector control
Using a motor model, the vector control calculates the load and the motor slip. As a result of
this calculation, the inverter controls its output voltage and frequency so that the motor
speed follows the setpoint, independent of the motor load.
Vector control is possible without directly measuring the motor speed. This closed-loop
control is also known as sensorless vector control.
7.6.2.2
Commissioning vector control
Vector control only functions error-free if, during the basic commissioning, the motor data
were correctly parameterized and a motor data identification was performed with the motor in
the cold state.
You can find the basic commissioning in the following sections:
● Commissioning with the BOP-2 (Page 63)
● Commissioning with STARTER (Page 68)
Optimizing vector control
● Carry out the automatic speed controller optimization using (p1960 = 1)
