1.4. How to Use this Manual
1.4.1. OVERVIEW
This User Manual (Basic User Manual) provides information required to setup and monitor the drives of the Sinus Penta
series manufactured by Elettronica Santerno when used in the Basic mode.
The section concerning the hardware description and installation covers basic wiring only. Refer to the Installation
Instructions manual to install additional options and/or to configure analogue/digital inputs and outputs.
The Sinus Penta is delivered in Basic mode, which provides a cut down parameter set and preset I/O settings. If additional
adjustment is required, this may be achieved by setting the drive to Advanced or Engineering using parameter P001 (see
the PASSWORD AND USER LEVEL MENU in the Programming Instructions manual.
Setup/monitoring may be obtained using one or both of the following options:
1) Display/keypad unit;
2) Serial link through RS485 standard port or ES822 optional board.
For the instructions on how to use and remote the display/keypad unit, please refer to the Installation Instructions manual.
Any information sent to/from the drive through the display/keypad unit may be obtained
also via serial link using the RemoteDrive software application provided by Elettronica
Santerno.
The RemoteDrive allows the following functions: image acquisition, keypad simulation,
oscilloscope functions and multifunction tester, table compiler including operation data log,
parameter setup and data reception-transmission-storage from and to a calculator, scan
function for the automatic detection of the connected drives (up to 247 drives may be
connected).
When used in Advanced or Engineering mode, many additional functions are available. These include the following:
• Customisation of Keypad navigation.
• Customisation of standard monitoring values.
• Selection of up to 4 acceleration and deceleration ramps.
• Customisation and scaling of analog input signals.
• Selection of up to 15 preset speeds.
• Configuration of 3 prohibit speeds.
• Utilisation of a speed variation function.
• Tuning of VTC and FOC algorithms.
• Customisation of analog output signals.
• Allocation of internal timer functions to digital I/O.
• PID activation and tuning.
• Configuration of Digital output comparator and logic functions.
• Master/slave operation with torque control.
• Adjustment of current and torque limits.
• Customisation of digital inputs.
• Setting of control source for start and speed commands.
• Configuration of a connected encoder.
• DC braking.
• Dynamic braking.
• Speed Search function.
• Autoreset.
• Motor thermal modelling and thermistor allocation.
• Crane control functions.
• Serial and Fieldbus communication.
If any of the above functions is required, use parameter P001 to access the Advanced or Engineering settings.
