Standard Series, Flush Plate, Architrave Size, 1 Gang (75 x 32mm) White Electric

Issue:
The ATV312 drive will not run the motor, with a run command present. 

Product Line:
ALTIVAR 312

Environment:
All
 
Cause:
No output voltage

Resolution:
Verity line voltage and control voltage is present:

• Measure AC line voltage phase to phase 
• Measure DC voltage between the +24 terminal and the COM terminal 

Verify mode of operation remote or local modes:

• If the red LED's on the left-hand side of the drive's display are:
  • Off- The drive is in remote (terminal) control 
  • Scrolling (flashing in sequence)- The drive is in local control 
  • Flashing together- The drive is in local, programming mode. It will not run in this mode. Hold down the ESC key for 2-3 seconds to return to local mode

Verify the run command is valid: Measure DC voltage between LI1/LI2 and COM 
Verify the speed reference is valid: Meaure DC voltage between AI1/AI2 and COM
Verify the drive state and status: ​i.e. RDY state, faulted, or some other state.

Issue:
Setting up Ethernet TCP/IP on the ATV61 and ATV71 drives.

Product Line:
Altivar ATV61 and ATV71

Environment:
All

Cause:
Ethernet TCPIP manual VW3A3310D

Resolution:
You can find ethernet configuration assistance in the ATV61/71 Ethernet TCPIP manual 30072-452-37

If the value of ParamKW is different, then it is referring to any modification done on the configuration of the NOC (most likely in the DTM browser). If you do not see any changes in this section of the program, then no actual modification was done. For example, if the IP address of a device in the DTM browser is changed and then changed back to its original value, a time stamp will still exist, resulting in the ParamKW changing.

Issue:   
How can the motor operate above 60Hz in the ATV31 or ATV312 drives?
 
Product Line:   
ATV31 ATV312
 
Environment:  
All
 
Cause:  
Changing high speed / max frequency
 
Resolution:   
Parameter HSP determines the maximum speed the drive can operate.  Parameter tFr determines the maximum value that HSP can be adjusted.  

By default, tFr is set to 60Hz.  When changing the Motor Frequency - bFr this changes tFr to 72Hz.  

To increase the maximum speed above 72Hz - Go to the drc menu and Set parameter tFr.  This can be adjusted up to 500Hz.  After saving the change, go to the SEt menu > HSP and adjust up to the desired speed.  

If your motor is a specialty motor that is rated for a frequency other than 50Hz. or 60Hz. such as a 300Hz. rated spindle motor, change parameter FrS under the DRC menu to match the rated frequency of the motor.

 

Issue:
Output phase loss protection on ATV212 and ATV312 drives

Product Line:
Altivar 212, Altivar 312

Environment:
All models, all serial numbers. 

Cause:
Protection from the loss of an output phase. 

Resolution:
Both the ATV312 and ATV212 have output phase loss protection. 

Output phase protection can be deactivated on both of these drives if needed for testing purposes:
For the ATV312 go to FLT > OPL and change from YES to NO to deactivate phase protection.
For the ATV212, press Mode until you see AUF, then scroll down to F - - - and hit Enter.  Scroll down to F605 and change to '0' to deactivate.

Issue:
ATV312 password.

Product Line:
ATV312, Altivar 312

Environment:
All

Cause:
Prevent program changes

Resolution:
You can add a password by setting parameter COd (PIN code 1).  This parameter is under the SUP menu (Monitoring).  Change from Off to to On and then change the display to a 4 digit code and push the Enter button.

To unlock the drive, go under the COd parameter again and enter the pin code saved. 

To reactivate the same pin code, change COd back to On and push the enter button. 

To change the pin code, once unlocked, change the pin code to another 4 digit code and push enter to save. 

To deactivate the pin code, change the display to Off and then push Enter to save.
