ABB ACS580 - Control Macros

Program features 99
working envelope for the motor so that excursions outside the envelope can be
supervised, timed and detected.
An overload warning and/or fault can be set to occur if the monitored signal stays
continuously over the overload curve for a defined time. An underload warning and/or
fault can be set to occur if the monitored signal stays continuously under the
underload for a defined time.
Overload can be for example used to monitor for a saw blade hitting a knot or fan
load profiles becoming too high.
Underload can be for example used to monitor for load dropping and breaking of
conveyer belts or fan belts.

 Control macros
Control macros are predefined parameter edits and I/O configurations. See chapter
Control macros (page 59).
 Process PID control
There are two built-in process PID controllers (PID set 1 and PID set 2) in the drive.
The controller can be used to control process variables such as pressure or flow in
the pipe or fluid level in the container.
