Initial Start-Up 2 Initial start up of the drive system This section will describe how to initially start up the COMBIVERT S4 drive system. This process should be done before attempting to adjust the drive for a specific type of application.
Initial Start Up 2.2 Verifying motor operation Connect the control terminal strip as indicated in the figure below. Turn the supply voltage to the amplifier The display on the amplifier will show actual motor speed. Close one of the jog switches and the motor should begin to turn.

Application Examples 3 Application examples 3.1 Positioning / indexing applications The following sections will outline two primary types of positioning applications, which can easily be solved with the internal motion controller. In order for the drive to take on the special functions, it is necessary to download the corresponding parameter list to the drive through the set up program COMBIVIS.
Application Examples 3.2.3 Operational Sequence 1. Power turned on and drive enabled (maintained signal at terminal 1) 2. Automatic mode turned on (maintained signal at terminal 3) 3. Start position signal given (momentary signal on terminal 2) to establish reference point.
Application Examples • The reference point search only happens once after the supply voltage to the drive is first turned on. After that the drive will make only position moves when a signal is given to terminal 2. • Terminals 6 and 7 are binary coded for positions 0 through 3. The position selection signals must be maintained at least until after the start move pulse is given on terminal 2.
3.2.6 Loading the program into the drive (if sent from KEBCO, INC.) 1. Connect a PC computer to the drive using the serial operator and a standard KEBCO serial cable. Start the program COMBIVIS and load the parameter window with the download file S4POSI1.DW5.

Application Examples 4. Once the parameters have been adjusted in the parameter list, the list can be loaded into the drive using the download function of the COMBIVIS program. Follow the instructions provided with COMBIVIS to send the parameter data to the drive. 5.
3.2.7 Single axis positioning parameter list The following parameter list S4POSI1.DW5 can either be written in the COMBIVIS 5.1 program or manually entered in. You can also request the program from KEBCO, INC. The line numbers in COMBIVIS will match the line numbers listed below.

Application Examples 3.2.8 Application Tips Sensors The drive is set up for PNP type signaling. Be sure not to exceed the rated supply current of the internal power supply. It may be necessary to use an external 24VDC supply if the load current is too great.

Application Examples Changing direction of motion Depending on the mounting of the motor, it may be desired to change the direction of travel and consequently the reference limit switch from the left side to the right side. Three parameters must be changed in the S4POSI1 parameter list as out lined below. 69 Pc14 reference speed 1 = +100.0 rpm Reference search speed...

Application Examples 3.3 Single axis index to length 3.3.1 Application definition • The system must index incrementally in one direction relative to the previous stopping point. • The system must have the capability to enter a search mode at the end of each index to establish positive stopping point based on registration mark.
Application Examples 3.3.3 Operational Sequence - index without registration search 1. Power turned on and drive enabled (maintained signal at terminal 1) 2. Automatic mode turned on (maintained signal at terminal 3) 3. Start index signal (momentary signal on terminal 2) is given, system indexes preset distance and stops.
Application Examples 3.3.4 Operational Sequence - index with registration search 1. Power turned on and drive enabled (maintained signal at terminal 1) 2. Automatic mode turned on (maintained signal at terminal 3) 3. Initiate registration point search (momentary signal at terminal 5), systems runs to a registration mark.
Application Examples • All signals with a vertical arrow are edge triggered and must be brought low before the drive will accept another signal at that terminal. • Terminals 8 and 9 are digital outputs. 3.3.5 Single axis index control wiring Section 3 S4 Application Manual Page 22...
3.3.7 Loading the program into the drive (if sent from KEBCO, INC.) 1. Connect a PC computer to the drive using the serial operator and a standard KEBCO serial cable. Start the program COMBIVIS and load the parameter window with the download file S4POSI2.DW5.
3.3.8 Single axis indexing parameter list The following parameter list S4POSI2.DW5 can either be written in the COMBIVIS 5.1 program or manually entered in. You can also request the program from KEBCO, INC. The line numbers in COMBIVIS will match the line numbers listed below.

Application Examples Basic index The index is made from the existing position of the system. If there is no registration mark or tooling marker, then the index can be made without first running the system to a registration point and without a search for the registration mark after the index. Under these conditions there is no need for a sensor to be connected to terminal 4 and additionally terminals 5 and 6 should be left open.

COMBISCOPE program by moving your cursor to the menu bar and selecting View then Inverter Scope. If you do not have COMBIVIS 5.1 you may download the unregistered version from our web site at www.kebco.com. Once the COMBISCOPE program is running, you may select one of the channels A…D for the mode of operation you would like.
Regulator Adjustment 4.2 Motion Profile Adjustment The motion profile for all position moves are defined through the following parameters. Pd09 set position high = 10 Index distance high Pd10 set position low Index distance low Pd07 max speed for posi = 1000 rpm Max.
Regulator Adjustment 4.2.2 Helpful hints when adjusting the move profiles • When adjusting the move profiles remember that each move has its own set of parameters. When adjusting these on the fly, you must use parameter Fr.09 to select which position (0…3) you want to adjust. In the COMBISCOPE program, when the scope screen is displayed, simply move your cursor up to the menu bar, select windows, then Project- explorer.
Regulator Adjustment 4.3 Example speed and position regulator adjustment Once the profile is correct, it may be necessary to adjust the PI speed control and positioning control to provide the best response. There are three control gains which can be adjusted: P-speed (proportional speed control gain) CS.00, I-speed (integral speed control gain) CS.01, and P-position (proportional position control gain) Pd.02.
Regulator Adjustment 4.3.2 Graph P-speed gain increased to eliminate overshoot; speed profile looks good. Actual Speed 1000 rpm / div P – Speed (CS.00) Set Speed 1000 rpm / div I - Speed (CS.01) Torque 35 lb in / div P –...
Regulator Adjustment 4.3.4 Graph Same move as graph 4.3.3. The I-speed gain is increased to improve low speed response. However, the integral term alone can not remove the overshoot. Actual Speed 100 rpm / div P – Speed (CS.00) Set Speed 100 rpm / div I –...
Regulator Adjustment 4.3.6 Graph Same move as graph 4.3.5. Now both the I-speed gain and the P-position gain are used to eliminate the overshoot. Both regulators together offer the best result. If the I-speed gain is increased too much, the function of the P-position regulator will be hindered. So it is best to keep I-speed low as compared to P-position.
Regulator Adjustment 4.3.8 Graph I - position is increased further. Position deviation decreases but creep remains. Solution is to increase I and P. Actual speed 100 rpm / div P – Speed (CS.00) Set speed 100 rpm / div I – Speed (CS.01) Horizontal 100 mSec /div P –...

Regulator Adjustment 4.3.10 Helpful hints adjusting the speed and position controllers • When adjusting the control gains remember that each move uses its own set of parameters. When adjusting these on the fly, you must use parameter Fr.09 to select which position (0…3) you want to adjust.
Regulator Adjustment 4.3.11 Operation at the torque limit This graph shows the result when the torque limit of the motor is reached during the acceleration. The actual speed falls behind the set speed with no chance to catch up since the acceleration torque is limited. As a result the position control increases the set speed during the constant run to reduce the position deviation.
