2. Core advantages

High dynamic performance: High dynamic motors have strong acceleration capabilities and are suitable for scenarios with low load inertia; Compact motors have high positioning accuracy and are suitable for variable loads.

Convenient debugging: Supports network servers (default IP: 169.254.11.22) and Startdrive software, providing one click optimization function and simplifying parameter configuration.

Safe and reliable: integrates two types of safety functions, supports fault safe digital input (F-DI) and PROFIsafe communication, and meets industrial safety standards.

Flexible Expansion: Supports common DC bus and input cascading, batch debugging can be achieved through storage cards, and is suitable for multi axis applications.

Safety regulations and installation requirements

1. Basic safety instructions

Operation permission: Only qualified professionals are allowed to operate, and the power-off discharge process must be followed (wait for 5 minutes after power-off).

Risk prevention: Avoid the impact of electromagnetic fields on medical implants (maintain a distance of ≥ 3m), and prevent electrostatic damage (wear anti-static equipment).

Environmental restrictions: Ventilation distance ≥ 100mm (up and down of the driver), prohibited from use in condensation and conductive pollution environments.

2. Installation and wiring

(1) Installation specifications

Motor installation: Use screws of grade 8.8 or above, with a tightening torque of 2.2-60Nm (depending on the motor model), to avoid impacting the shaft extension.

Driver installation: Vertical installation (LED facing up), with a distance of ≥ 10mm (side) and ≥ 100mm (up and down) from other devices.

Cable requirements: The maximum length of motor cable is 250m (with external filter), the maximum length of PROFINET cable is 100m, and both ends of the shielding layer are grounded.

(2) Key points of wiring

Power wiring: single-phase version is connected to L1/N, three-phase version is connected to L1/L2/L3, and a fuse (30A J level) is required.

Motor wiring: Connect U/V/W through OCC cable, and integrate the encoder and brake into the same cable.

Braking resistor: Internal braking resistor is standard, while external braking resistor needs to be matched with resistance value (150-30 Ω) and power (50-3250W).

Communication wiring: PROFINET interface X150 P1/P2, supports RJ45 FastConnect.

Configuration and Debugging

1. Debugging tools and processes

Debugging method is applicable to the core functions of the scenario

Network server local/remote debugging parameter configuration, one click optimization, security function debugging, fault diagnosis

Startdrive complex system integration hardware configuration, firmware updates, batch parameter import

Batch debugging and parameter backup/recovery of storage cards, supporting fast replication of configurations across multiple drives

2. Key debugging steps

Initial setup: Set the Administrator password (≥ 8 characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters/numbers/special characters), and configure the driver name.

One click optimization (OBT): Select dynamic characteristics (conservative/standard/dynamic), set rotation angle (recommended ≥ 360 °), optimize speed controller parameters.

Security function configuration: Select the control mode (PROFINET/onboard terminal), set parameters such as SS1 delay time and SLS speed limit.

Batch debugging: Save the configuration through a storage card or backup the parameter file (Backup. zip) on the network, and import it in batches to other drives.

3. Details of Security Features

(1) Basic Functions (standard)

STO (Safe Torque Off): Compliant with EN 60204-1 stop category 0, cutting off motor torque to prevent accidental restart.

SS1 (Safe Stop 1): Time controlled shutdown, triggering STO after delay, supporting OFF3 slope braking or external stop.

SBC (Safe Brake Control): controls the motor brake to prevent the hanging load from sagging, and needs to be used in conjunction with STO.

(2) Extended Functions (license required)

Includes STO/SS1/SBC enhanced version, with 11 new features including SS2 (Safe Shutdown 2), SOS (Safe Operation Stop), SLS (Safe Speed Limit), etc.

Support speed/acceleration/direction monitoring, controlled through PROFIsafe message 901, with a trial period of 3 segments x 300 hours.

Diagnosis and maintenance

1. Fault diagnosis

Status display: Three digit display+RDY/COMLED (green constant light=ready, red flashing=fault).

Fault response: After eliminating the cause, respond by pressing the OK button, restarting the network server, or turning off the power.

Common faults: DC bus overvoltage (F30002), brake resistor overload, PROFINET communication failure.

2. Maintenance points

Maintenance project cycle/condition operation instructions

Replace the motor bearings directly when the shaft height is ≤ AH50 after 25000 operating hours, and replace the bearings separately when the shaft height is ≥ AH63

Support network server (HTTPS) or storage card upgrade when a version update is required for firmware upgrade of the drive

After parameter backup and debugging are completed, backup the network to a file or storage card, including the Administrator password

Fan replacement is only required for the three-phase version driver after 40000 operating hours. Please refer to the spare parts order number for replacement

3. Restore factory settings

Scenario: Forgetting password, changing motor, parameter confusion.

Operation: Import the updater.inf file from the storage card, power off and restart to restore, and re debug is required.

Technical data and application scenarios

1. Key technical parameters

Environmental temperature: driver -25~70 ℃, motor -40~60 ℃ (beyond 40 ℃, capacity reduction is required).

Protection level: driver IP20, motor IP64 (with shaft sealing ring IP65).

Communication speed: PROFINET supports 10/100Mb/s and IRT synchronization.

2. Typical application scenarios
