5.4 Setting the MOVIDRIVE
®
MDX61B inverter
The following settings are required for simple fieldbus operation.
However, to control the MOVIDRIVE
®
B drive inverter via EtherCAT
®
, you must first
switch the drive inverter to control signal source (P101) and setpoint source (P100) =
FIELDBUS. The FIELDBUS setting means the drive inverter parameters are set for con-
trol and setpoint entry via EtherCAT
®
. The MOVIDRIVE
®
B drive inverter then responds
to the process output data transmitted by the PLC.
The parameters of the MOVIDRIVE
®
B drive inverter can be set straight away via
EtherCAT
®
without any further settings once the EtherCAT
®
option card has been in-
stalled. For example, all parameters can be set by the PLC after power-on.
Activation of the control signal source and setpoint source FIELDBUS is signaled to the
machine control using the "Fieldbus mode active" bit in the status word.
For safety reasons, you must also enable the MOVIDRIVE
®
B drive inverter at the ter-
minals for control via the fieldbus system. Consequently, you must wire and program the
terminals in such a way that the inverter is enabled via the input terminals. The simplest
way of enabling the inverter on the terminal side is to set the DIØØ input terminal (Func-
tion /CONTROLLER INHIBIT) to a +24 V signal and to program the input terminals DIØ1
... DIØ7 to NO FUNCTION.
The procedure for a complete startup of the MOVIDRIVE
®
B inverter with EtherCAT
®
connection is described in chapter "Operating behavior on EtherCAT
®
" and chapter
"Motion control via EtherCAT
®
".
