Overview This chapter states the safety instructions which must be followed when installing, operating and servicing the ACS 600. If neglected, physical injury and death may follow, or damage may occur to the frequency converter, the motor and driven equipment. The material in this chapter must be studied before attempting any work on, or with, the unit.
Page 6
ACS 600 should be carried out by qualified electricians. The ACS 600 and adjoining equipment must be properly earthed. Do not attempt any work on a powered ACS 600. After switching off the mains, always allow the intermediate circuit capacitors 5 minutes to discharge before working on the frequency converter, the motor or the motor cable.
Chapter 1 – Introduction, the chapter you are reading now, introduces you to the ACS 600 Firmware Manual. Chapter 2 – Overview of ACS 600 Programming and the Control Panel provides an overview of programming your ACS 600. This chapter describes the operation of the Control Panel used for controlling and programming.
ACS 600 Application Macros in tabular form. Appendix C – Fieldbus Control contains the information needed to control the ACS 600 through a fieldbus adapter module. There are several fieldbus adapter modules for the ACS 600 available as optional equipment.
Control Panel The Control Panel is the device used for controlling and programming the ACS 600. The Panel can be attached directly to the door of the cabinet or it can be mounted, for example, in a control desk. Firmware Manual...

Chapter 2 – Overview of ACS 600 Programming and the CDP 312 Control Panel Drive Selection Mode In normal use the features available in the Drive Selection Mode are not needed; these features are reserved for applications where several drives are connected to one Panel Link. (For more information, see the Installation and Start-up Guide for the Panel Bus Connection Interface Module, NBCI, Code: 3AFY 58919748).
Chapter 2 – Overview of ACS 600 Programming and the CDP 312 Control Panel Operational Commands Operational commands control the operation of the ACS 600. They include starting and stopping the drive, changing the direction of rotation and adjusting the reference. The reference value is used for controlling motor speed or torque.

This parameter is used to select the Application Macro which will MACRO configure the ACS 600 for a particular application. Refer to Chapter 5 – Standard Application Macro Programs for a list and description of available Application Macros. There is also a selection for saving the current settings as a User Macro (USER 1 SAVE or USER 2 SAVE), and recalling these settings (USER 1 LOAD or USER 2 LOAD).
