5. Getting Started
This chapter is a step by step guide that will show you the
quickest way to get the motor shaft turning. We will show
you two examples, remote control and local control.
We assume that the AC drive is mounted on a wall or in a
cabinet as in the chapter 2. page 13.
First there is general information of how to connect mains,
motor and control cables. The next section describes how to
use the function keys on the control panel. The subsequent
examples covering remote control and local control describe
how to program/set the motor data and run the AC drive
and motor.
5.1 Connect the mains and
motor cables
Dimension the mains and motor cables according to local
regulations. The cable must be able to carry the AC drive
load current.
5.1.1 Mains cables
1. Connect the mains cables as in Fig. 66. The AC drive
has, as standard, a built-in RFI mains filter that complies
with category C3 which suits the Second Environment
standard.
5.1.2 Motor cables
Connect the motor cables as in Fig. 66. To comply with the
EMC directive you have to use screened cables and the
motor cable screen has to be connected on both sides: to the
housing of the motor and the housing of the AC drive.
