Industry Application Overview
2.1
The iC7-Automation is delivered with the Industry application software as standard. The Industry application software offers a wide
range of features supporting a large selection of generic applications. The features are briefly described in the following sections.
Basic Functions
2.2
I/O Control and Readouts
2.2.1
Depending on the hardware configuration of the drive, digital and analog inputs as well as digital, analog, and relay outputs are
available. The I/Os can be configured and used to control the application from the drive.
If functional extension options are installed in the drive, the relevant parameters and I/O selections are automatically visible in the
parameter structure.
Reference Handling
2.2.2
References from multiple sources can be defined, depending on the needs of the application.
Reference sources are:
Analog inputs
l
Digital inputs either as pulse input or digital potentiometer
l
Reference from a fieldbus
l
Up to 8 preset references (selectable by parameter, fieldbus, or digital inputs)
l
Local reference from control panel
l
Reference signals can be added, subtracted, and multiplied, generating the reference to the drive. The final reference is scaled from
-100% to 100%.
Ramps
2.2.3
Linear and S-ramps are supported. Linear ramps provide a constant acceleration and deceleration. S-ramps provide a non-linear
acceleration and deceleration, with a soft transition at the start and end of the acceleration and deceleration process.
Quick Stop
2.2.4
In some situations, it may be required to stop the application quickly. For this purpose, the drive supports a specific deceleration ramp
time from the synchronous motor speed to 0 RPM.
2.2.5
Limit Rotation Direction
The motor can be preset to run in one rotational direction only (positive or negative), avoiding unintended rotation direction.
2.2.6
Inching with Jogging Modes
Predefined speed settings are available for use during commissioning, maintenance, or service. The settings include Slow Down mode
(operating at decreased speed), Jogging mode (operating at a preset speed), and Override mode (this mode overrides any reference
settings).
Speed Bypass
2.2.7
Specific motor speeds can be bypassed during operation. The feature helps to minimize or avoid mechanical resonance of the machine,
limiting the vibration and noise of the system.
