Core functions and operation mode

(1) Classification of operating modes

Core characteristics of applicable scenarios for operation mode

VFC ordinary industrial loads and constant/variable torque loads have a simple structure and high stability, supporting DC braking and fast starting

VFC-n-Control requires precise speed control in scenarios with speed closed-loop control, adapted to encoder feedback

CFC requires high dynamic performance and fast load torque response, supporting torque feedforward control

SERVO high-precision position control scene supports IPOSplus ®  Positioning function, high positioning accuracy

VFC - Lift mode lifting equipment (cranes, elevators) adapted to lifting load characteristics, with pre magnetization function

(2) Debugging and operation methods

Applicable scenarios for operation mode tools/carrier core functions

DBG60B operation panel parameter setting, fault reset, data copying, manual speed regulation on-site quick debugging, simple operation

Fault diagnosis and maintenance

(1) Fault handling mechanism

Typical fault code processing points for fault type response methods

Immediately shut down F-01 (overcurrent) and F-03 (ground fault) to cut off the output in case of serious faults, and reset after troubleshooting for short circuits/grounding issues

Emergency stop F-11 (high temperature) and F-84 (motor overload) for general faults, stop according to the emergency ramp, reduce the load and restart

Warning fault: Quickly abort F-28 (fieldbus timeout) and F-43 (RS485 timeout) prompts an alarm, and automatically resets after communication is restored

(2) Maintenance points

Environmental requirements: working temperature of 0~+50 ℃, storage temperature of -25 ℃~+75 ℃, relative humidity of 20%~95% (non condensing)

Storage and maintenance: For long-term storage, power on for at least 5 minutes every 2 years; Failure to maintain as required requires graded voltage boosting (230V equipment is divided into 3 levels: 170V → 200V → 240V)

Cleaning and maintenance: Regularly clean the dust on the heat sink, check the tightness of the terminal wiring, and ensure that the shielding layer is grounded at both ends
