Fundamental safety instructions 1.1 General safety instructions NOTICE Device damage caused by incorrect voltage/insulation tests Incorrect voltage/insulation tests can damage the device. • Before carrying out a voltage/insulation check of the system/machine, disconnect the devices as all converters and motors have been subject to a high voltage test by the manufacturer, and therefore it is not necessary to perform an additional test within the system/machine.
Fundamental safety instructions 1.2 Safety instructions for electromagnetic fields (EMF) Safety instructions for electromagnetic fields (EMF) WARNING Danger to life from electromagnetic fields Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are generated by the operation of electrical power equipment such as transformers, converters or motors. People with pacemakers or implants are at a special risk in the immediate vicinity of these devices/systems.
Siemens recommends strongly that you regularly check for product updates. For the secure operation of Siemens products and solutions, it is necessary to take suitable preventive action (e.g. cell protection concept) and integrate each component into a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept.

Advanced commissioning 6.5 Motor control Advanced settings Parameter Explanation p1226 Standstill detection, speed threshold (Factory setting: 20 rpm) The moment of inertia estimator only measures the load torque for speeds ≥ p1226. p1226 also defines from which speed the inverter switches-off the motor for OFF1 and OFF3.
The inverter must measure the pole position for motors not equipped with an encoder, or for encoders, which do not supply the information regarding the pole position. If you are using a Siemens motor, then the inverter automatically selects the appropriate technique to determine the pole position, and when required starts the pole position identification.
Advanced commissioning 6.5 Motor control 6.5.3 Torque control Torque control is part of the vector control and normally receives its setpoint from the speed controller output. By deactivating the speed controller and directly entering the torque setpoint, the closed-loop speed control becomes closed-loop torque control.

Appendix A.2 Parameter Parameter Parameters are the interface between the firmware of the converter and the commissioning tool, e.g. an Operator Panel. Adjustable parameters Adjustable parameters are the "adjusting screws" with which you adapt the converter to its particular application. If you change the value of an adjustable parameter, then the converter behavior also changes.

Appendix A.3 Handling the BOP 2 operator panel A.3.1 Changing settings using BOP-2 Changing settings using BOP-2 You can modify the settings of your inverter by changing the values of the its parameters. The inverter only permits changes to "write" parameters. Write parameters begin with a "P", e.g.
Appendix A.3 Handling the BOP 2 operator panel Procedure To change an indexed parameter, proceed as follows: 1. Select the parameter number. 2. Press the OK key. 3. Set the parameter index. 4. Press the OK key. 5. Set the parameter value for the selected index. You have now changed an indexed parameter.
Appendix A.3 Handling the BOP 2 operator panel Entering the parameter value directly The BOP-2 offers the option of setting the parameter value digit by digit. Precondition The parameter value flashes in the BOP-2 display. Procedure To select the parameter value directly, proceed as follows: 1.
Appendix A.4 The device trace in STARTER The device trace in STARTER Description The device trace graphically displays inverter signals with respect to time. Signals In two settings that are independent of one another, using you can interconnect eight signals each. Recording You can start a measurement as frequently as you require.
Page 493
Appendix A.4 The device trace in STARTER If you require more than two settings for your measurements, you can either save the individual settings in the project or export them in *.clg format, and load or import them, if necessary. You can record individual bits of a parameter (e.g.
