TI[N] – Temperature indications array
1
Purpose:
Reports the drive temperature measurement:
TI[1] – reports the drive temperature in Celsius
TI[2] – reserved
Drive temperature is measured every ~3mSec.
It is useful to analyze the drive temperature characteristics during the application
development stages.
This feature can also serve as maintenance procedure during the machine lifetime.
Methods to obtain the temperature:
• Terminal command– inquire TI[1] by the host application
• Record the temperature characteristic as a function of time by using the Composer
recorder. Map the “Temperature” record variable from the record-mapping list.
• Using the drive’s user program to sense a certain temperature, perform some of the
following actions:
o Stop the machine under control
o Reduce the current limits or change the motion profile
o Change a digital output level
o Transmit a CAN message to PLC or machine host
Note:
When the temperature reaches the critical level, the drive will automatically shut
down the power stage with motor failure exception (MF=0xD000).
If drive doesn’t support this feature, the TI[1] command returns –55.
