ABB ACH550 Quick Start Manual page 6

Step 2: Navigate to parameters on the control panel (ACH-CP-B), changed parameters and record all changed

parameters.

Step 3: If there is a fieldbus adapter, such as Lon communications, navigate to group 51 and record all settings in this

group.

Step 4: If there were embedded fieldbus communications, such as BACnet, navigate to group 53 and record all settings

in this group.

Step 5: Navigate to parameter 99.02 to record macro setting in the drive programming.

*Note that the base programming for the drive will depend on the macro loaded, so the changed parameters will not

reflect a parameter that is part of the default of the macro. Reference the ACH550 manual for macro parameter

defaults.

Option B: Gathering the programming data – Drive Windows Light

Step 1: Connect Ethernet cord to RJ45 connector in 64652745 (OPEX-01 Interface Board) and serial to USB converter to

your computer. Ensure that drivers are configured and open Drive Windows Light on your computer.

Step 2: In Drive Windows Light you can actively navigate to parameters or create a backup of the drive programming on

your computer.

Step 3: Ensure that you have the changed parameters, Group 51 settings, Group 53 settings, as well as parameter 99.02

for to identify the macro setting in the drive programming.

*Note that the base programming for the drive will depend on the macro loaded, so the changed parameters will not

reflect a parameter that is part of the default of the macro. Reference the ACH550 manual for macro parameter defaults

This solution will support frame sizes 1 through 6. For frame sizes 7 and 8 the 64652745 (OPEX-01 Interface Board) and

64738852 (Connection Cable) is already installed on the control board (SMIO-01) board and will be able to be removed

with the control board (SMIO-01).

Through the removal of the control board (SMIO-01) there are two options in interfacing with the previous programming

for the drive. The information that is gathered from the changed parameters list, the communications settings in group

51 group and 53, as well as understanding which macro is being used provides the Technician with all the critical data to

be confident that they have the information needed to program the replacement ACH580 drive correctly. By backing

these up to a panel or to a computer file using Drive Windows Light it provides a fast way to support the programming

of the replacement ACH550.
