1 General Information
1. General
In operation, drive converters, depending on their degree of protection, may have live,
unisolated, and possibly also moving or rotating parts, as well as hot surfaces.
In case of inadmissible removal of the required covers, of improper use, wrong installation
or maloperation, there is the danger of serious personal injury and damage to property.
For further information, see documentation.
All operations serving transport, installation and commissioning as well as maintenance are
to be carried out by skilled technical personnel (Observe IEC 364 or CENELEC HD 384
or DIN VDE 0100 and IEC 664 or DIN/VDE 0110 and national accident prevention rules!).
For the purposes of these basic safety instructions, skilled technical personnel means per-
sons who are familiar with the installation, mounting, commissioning and operation of the
product and have the qualifications needed for the performance of their functions.
We draw attention to the fact that no liability can be assumed for damage and malfunctions
resulting from failure to observe the operating manual.
We draw attention to the fact that no liability can be assumed for damage and malfunctions
resulting from failure to observe the operating manual.
2. Intended Use
The application of the drive converter described in this operating manual exclusively serves
the purpose of continuously variable speed control of three-phase motors.
Drive converters are components designed for inclusion in electrical installations or machin-
ery.
The drive converters are designed for installation in a switchgear cabinet and for permanent
connection.
The operator of the system is solely liable for damage resulting from improper use of the
drive converter.
Only items expressly approved by BERGES (e.g. line filter, choke, external braking chop-
pers and braking resistors etc.) may be used as accessories.
The installer of the system is liable for any damage resulting from the use of accessories
that have not been approved expressly by BERGES. Please consult us in case of doubt.
In case of installation in machinery, commissioning of the drive converters (i.e. the starting
of normal operation) is prohibited until the machinery has been proved to conform to the
provisions of the directive 89/392/EEC (Machinery Safety Directive MSD). Account is to
be taken of EN 60204.
Commissioning (i.e. the starting of normal operation) is admissible only where conformity
with the EMC directive (89/336/EEC) has been established.
The drive converters meet the requirements of the low-voltage directive 73/23/EEC. They
are subject to the harmonized standards of the series prEN 50178/DIN VDE 0160 in con-
junction with EN 60439-1/DIN VDE 0660, part 500, and EN 60146/DIN VDE 0558.
The technical data as well as information concerning the supply conditions shall be taken
from the name plate and from the documentation and shall be strictly observed.
3. Transport, Storage
The instructions for transport, storage and proper use shall be complied with.
Damage established after delivery must be notified to the transport company immediately.
Where necessary, the supplier must also be notified before the damaged drive converter is
put into operation.
The climatic conditions shall be in conformity with prEN 50178.
4. Installation
The installation and cooling of the appliances shall be in accordance with the specifications
in the pertinent documentation.
The drive converters shall be protected against excessive strains. In particular, no compo-
nents must be bent or isolating distances altered in the course of transportation or handling.
No contact shall be made with electronic components and contacts.
Drive converters contain electrostatic sensitive components which are liable to damage
through improper use. Electric components must not be mechanically damaged or de-
stroyed (potential health risks).
5. Electrical connection
When working on live drive converters, the applicable national accident prevention rules
(e.g. VBG 4) must be complied with.
The electrical installation shall be carried out in accordance with the relevant requirements
(e.g. cross-sectional areas of conductors, fusing, GND connection). For further information,
see documentation.
Instructions for the installation in accordance with EMC requirements, like screening, earth-
ing, location of filters and wiring, are contained in the drive converter documentation. They
must always be complied with, also for drive converters bearing a CE marking. Observance
of the limit values required by EMC law is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the in-
stallation or machine.
6. Operation
The components of the power section and certain elements of the control section are con-
nected to the line voltage when the drive converter is connected to the line voltage. Touch-
ing these components involves mortal danger!
Always isolate the drive converter from the line supply before performing any work on the
electrical or mechanical part of the system.
Disconnect the drive converter from the line voltage before removing the terminal cover or
the housing (e.g. by removing or deactivating on-site fuses or by deactivating a master
switch isolating all poles etc.).
After disconnection of the drive converters from the voltage supply, live appliance parts and
power terminals must not be touched immediately because of possibly energized capaci-
tors. In this respect, the corresponding signs and markings on the drive converter must be
respected. After switching off the line voltage, wait for at least 5 minutes before beginning
work on or in the drive converter. Disconnect all power before servicing the drive. Then
measure the DC bus capacitor charge between the B+ and B terminals (or DB1 and B
terminals, depending on model; see page 31 for more information) to verify that the DC volt-
age is less than 45 V DC. The DC Bus LED is not a definitive indication of the absence
of DC voltage. In the event of malfunctions, the Discharge time of 5 minutes may be ex-
ceeded substantially.
The drive converter contains protective facilities that deactivate it in the event of malfunc-
tions, whereby the motor is de-energized and comes to a standstill (so-called coasting of
the motor is possible depending on the rotating mass of the type of drive involved). Stand-
still of the motor can, however, also be produced by mechanical blockage. Voltage fluctua-
tions, and particularly line power failures, may also lead to deactivation. In certain circum-
stances, the drive may start up automatically once the cause of the fault has been reme-
died. As a result of this, certain systems may be damaged or destroyed and there may be
a risk for operators working on the system. Installations which include drive converters shall
be equipped with additional control and protective devices in accordance with the relevant
applicable safety requirements, e.g. Act respecting technical equipment, accident preven-
tion rules etc. Changes to the drive converters by means of the operating software are Ad-
missible.
The motor may be stopped during operation by disabling it or by deactivating the setpoint,
whereby the drive converter and motor may remain live. If inadvertent start-up of the mo-
tor must be excluded to protect operating personnel, electronic interlocking by dis-
abling the motor or by deactivating the setpoint is inadequate. This is why the drive
converter must be isolated from the line voltage.
During operation, all covers and doors shall be kept closed.
Measuring instruments must be connected and disconnected only in de-energized condi-
tion.
Unauthorized conversions or modifications on or in the drive converter and its components
and accessories will render all warranty claims void.
When installing an option board, observe the installation specification valid for this board.
Please contact BERGES if conversions or modifications are necessary, particularly if elec-
trical components are involved.

The WF2 Sensorless Vector Drive is available from stock in a variety of enclosures that
meet the requirements of almost any application. Yet, special applications (such as use in
washdown environments or in integrated systems) may make it desirable to mount WF2
drives in a host enclosure.
When WF2 drives are mounted in a host enclosure, the watts dissipated by the drives must
be dissipated by the host enclosure. If this is not accomplished, the control circuitry of the
WF2 drives will be damaged.
Two techniques are available for mounting WF2 drives in a host enclosure:
The drives may be entirely enclosed in the host enclosure; or
The drives may be mounted with their cooling fins outside of the host enclosure.
The following sections discuss these two mounting techniques in greater detail.
4.3.1 IP31 and IP55 Models Entirely Enclosed in the Host Enclosure
When a WF2 drive is entirely enclosed in a host enclosure, the host enclosure must be
properly sized to dissipate the heat generated by the drive and any other power-dissipating
devices also mounted in the host enclosure. Table 6 on page 19 provides the watts dissi-
pated by the various models of WF2 drives at various switching frequencies. Use this infor-
mation to adequately size the host enclosure.
4.3.2 IP31 and IP55 Models with Fins External to the Host Enclosure
By mounting a WF2 drive so that its heatsink fins are outside of the host enclosure, you may
select a smaller host enclosure than that required when the drive is mounted entirely inside
the host enclosure. For most applications with this type of mounting, typically you will not
need such additional cooling devices as fans, heat exchangers, or air conditioners.
The amount by which the load on the host enclosure is reduced is the amount of watts dis-
sipated by the heatsinks of the drives. Table 7 on page 21 shows the watts dissipated by
each WF2 model after deducting the amount of watts dissipated by the heatsinks of the
model. Use the values shown in the table to adequately size the host enclosure.
For further information on mounting a drive with the fins outside of the host enclosure, see
Form 1364 WF2 Fins-out Mounting Instructions.

Required Dissipation for Models Entirely Inside an Enclosure
NEMA 1/IP31 models may be used in an expanded ambient temperature range if the con-
duit plate on the bottom of the unit is removed. Once the conduit plate is removed, 230 and
460 V AC models of 22 kW or less may be used where ambient temperatures range from
0 to 55 C (32 to 131 F), while 460 V AC models of 30 kW or greater and all 575 V AC
models may be used where ambient temperatures range from 0 to 50 C (32 to 122 F).
(Note that these ratings are limited to full nominal line installations on some models.)
On smaller frame sizes (0.75 to 7.5 kW models; see figure 1 on page 14), to access the
screws holding the conduit plate in place, you must first remove the terminal access cover.
Once the cover is removed, unscrew the screws securing the conduit plate and remove the
conduit plate. With the conduit plate removed, additional air circulates through the unit as-
sembly, which permits operation in the expanded temperature range.
On the larger frame sizes (11 to 55 kW models; see figure 2 on page 15), the screws se-
curing the conduit plate are directly accessible from outside the unit. Simply unscrew the
screws securing the conduit plate and then remove the conduit plate to permit operation in
the expanded temperature range.
Also note that an IP21 conversion kit is available for NEMA 1/IP31 models. For more infor-
mation, see section 9.2 on page 145.
If you remove the cover of an IP55 or IP66 WF2 drive (models D or N), it is imperative that
the cover be closed and re-secured with sufficient tightness to maintain environmental in-
tegrity. The table below specifies the torque values for the bolts that secure the covers on
the various WF2 models.

NOTES:
*) Choke only if required (e.g. owing to motor cable length >30 m). Please consult
BERGES.
**) For cables shorter than 20 cm, an unscreened cable can be used between filter and in-
verter.
The inverter and all other components used for interference suppression (especially also
the shield of the motor cable) should be contacted over as large an area as possible when
connected to metal (control panels, switchgear cabinets and similar) (skin effect). Remove
the paint at the respective areas to ensure good contacting over a large area!
A central earthing point should be used for interference suppression (e.g. equipotential
bonding strip or centrally at an interference suppression filter). The earthing lines are routed
to the respective terminals radially from this point. Conductor loops of the earthing lines
are impermissible and can lead to unnecessary interference.
The shield cross section must not be reduced when the shield is connected to continuing
lines. This would give rise to RF resistance at a cross section reduction, and the resulting
RF energy would consequently not be discharged but radiated. Shields particularly
shields of control lines must not be contacted through pin contacts of plug connectors. In
these cases, the metallic hand guard of the plug connector should be used for large-area
connection of the shield.
Use a shielded motor cable (earthed over a large area at both sides). The shield should be
routed uninterrupted from the GND terminal of the inverter to the GND terminal of the mo-
tor. If a shielded motor line cannot be used, the unshielded motor line should be laid in a
metal duct. The metal duct must be uninterrupted and adequately earthed. The following
points are prescribed if radio interference suppression is to be realized in accordance with
EN 55011, EN 55014 and EN 50081-1:
Preceding the unit by a line filter (option) or a line filter and a output choke (line filter [1]
and output choke not included in the scope of delivery).
Laying the motor cable in a shielded configuration.
Laying the control cable in a shielded configuration.
Observe general RFI suppression measures (refer to the chapter 4.5 (EMC (Electro-
magnetic Compatibility)).
Lay motor, line power and signal cables as far away from each other as possible and sep-
arately.
If a line filter (option) is used, the smallest possible spatial distance from the frequency
inverter must be selected so that both units can be connected by short connection leads.
If an output choke is used (option), it must be fitted in the direct vicinity of the inverter and
connected to the inverter through screened cables earthed at both ends.
Screened signal cables should not be routed in parallel with power cables. An earthed met-
al cable duct is recommendable for these signal cables. If signal cables have to cross a
power cable, they should cross at an angle of 90.
Control wires longer than 3 feet (1 meter) must be run in shielded cable, and the shield must
be terminated at common (CM) on the drive. Note that connection to CM, the circuit com-
mon, rather than earth ground, is allowed because WF2 drives have isolated control inputs.
If the signal run exceeds 30 feet (9 meters), a 020 mA or 420 mA signal should be used,
as it will have better noise immunity than a low level voltage.
Other loads connected to the line can cause voltage spikes which can impair the function
of the inverter and can even damage it. Chokes or line filters (option) can be additionally
used on the line side to protect the inverter against voltage spikes (resulting from the switch-
ing of large loads on the line). These chokes and filters are available as accessories.
If the drive is operated from switchgear devices or is in close proximity to switchgear devic-
es (as in a common cabinet), the following procedures are recommended as a precaution
to prevent these devices from interfering with the drive's operation:
Wire the coils of contactors, switchgear devices and relay combinations with RC ele-
ments or with free-wheel diodes.
Use shielded cables for external control and measuring cables.
Lay disturbing cables (e.g. power and contactor control circuits) separately and at a dis-
tance from the control cables.
The frequency inverters were tested in the form of a practical test set-up in a switchgear
cabinet (in accordance with our interference suppression measures in these operating in-
structions: EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility). The limit values of the standards below
were fulfilled under these conditions:

Read and understand this manual in its entirety before installing or operating the WF2
Sensorless Vector Drive. Installation, adjustment, repair, and maintenance of these
drives must be performed by qualified personnel.
Disconnect all power before servicing the drive. WAIT 5 MINUTES until the DC bus ca-
pacitors discharge. Then measure the DC bus capacitor charge between the B+ and
B terminals (or DB1 and B terminals, depending on model; see page 31 for more in-
formation) to verify that the DC voltage is less than 45 V DC. The DC Bus LED is not
a definitive indication of the absence of DC voltage.
DO NOT short across DC bus capacitors or touch unshielded components or terminal
strip screw connections with voltage present.
Install all covers and close door before applying power or starting and stopping the
drive.
The user is responsible for conforming to all applicable code requirements for ground-
ing all equipment.
Many parts in this drive, including printed circuit boards, operate at line voltage. DO
NOT TOUCH. Use only electrically-insulated tools.
Before servicing the electrical system:
Disconnect all power.
Place a DO NOT TURN ON label on the drive disconnect.
Lock the disconnect in the open position.
Failure to observe these precautions will cause shock or burn, resulting in severe
personal injury or death.
5.1 Introduction
This chapter provides information on connecting power and control wiring to the WF2 drive.
Power wiring refers to the line and load connections made to terminals L1/R, L2/S, L3/T,
and T1/U, T2/V, T3/W respectively. Select power wiring as follows:
Use only UL, CUL and VDE recognized wire.
Wire voltage rating must be a minimum of 300 V for 230 V AC systems and 600 V (Class
1 wire) for 460 V AC and 575 V AC systems.
Use circuit breakers on the incoming power lines.
Grounding must be in accordance with VDE, NEC and CEC. If multiple WF2 drives are
installed near each other, each must be connected to ground. Take care to not form a
ground loop.
Wire must be made of copper and rated 60/75 C (unless otherwise specified in the table
below). Refer to tables 8, 9, and 10 on pages 28 and 29 for recommended wire gauges
and temperature ratings.
When selecting the distance from the WF2 drive to the motor, the following considerations
should be kept in mind:
The distance from the WF2 drive to the motor should not exceed 300 meters.
If the leads for motor connections exceed 30 meters, the motor windings may be sub-
jected to voltage stresses two to three times nominal values unless an output filter is uti-
lized. Consult with the motor manufacturer to ensure compatibility.
Output filters should be used to limit voltage problems experienced by the motor when
the distance from the WF2 drive to the motor exceeds 300 meters and/or when the mo-
tor connections exceed 30 meters. Consult with BERGES for recommendations in this
case.
The frequency inverters are designed for installation in a switchgear cabinet and for
permanent connection.
To guarantee lasting operating safety and reliability, the inverter must be connected expert-
ly in accordance with the valid electrical standards. Attention must be paid to good insula-
tion from earth potential on the power terminals.
An AC system with a nominal voltage of 230 V (50/60 Hz) must be connected to line termi-
nals L1/R, N and PE or a three-phase system with a nominal voltage of 400 V (50/60 Hz)
to terminals L1/R, L2/S, L3/T and PE (pay attention to rating plate). The neutral point must
be earthed (TN-C system).
Ensure a voltage balanced to earth or phase to phase when feeding in the line power
through an isolating transformer (star point must be earthed).
The inverter will be destroyed if the line feeder is confused with the motor cable.
The DC link capacitors must be reformed if the inverter you wish to connect has been out
of operation for more than a year. To do this, connect the inverter to voltage for approx. 30
minutes. The inverter should not be loaded by connected motors during forming.
Owing to leakage currents from anti-interference capacitors in the inverter and the motor
lines, as well as due to d.c. components in the supply current, the protective function of a
fault current safety switch can no longer be guaranteed (this also applies to FI safety switch-
es that are AC/DC sensitive). All devices connected to such safety switches (and the people
who come into contact with them) are no longer protected in such a situation. Consequent-
ly, please note the following:
FI safety switches are only to be installed between the supplying network and the inverter.
The following exception permits the connection of a frequency inverter via a fault current
safety switch as a single protective measure:
Installing the latest model of an FI safety switch (300 mA) with MOBILE connected fre-
quency inverters up to 4 kVA (input voltage 1 230 V), which controls alternating and
pulsating DC leakage current (AC/DC sensitive). This type of FI safety switch has this
symbol .
When using a fault current protective device (FI safety switch), you should check its com-
patibility with the frequency inverter. Compatibility information for each device type:
1-phase devices:
Permissible are pulsed current sensitive FI safety switches (type A) or AC/DC sensitive
safety switches (type B).
3-phase devices:
Only AC/DC sensitive safety switches (type B) are allowed.
Otherwise, another safety measure has to be deployed such as the use of double or rein-
forced isolation to disconnect from the environment, network disconnection or similar (EN
50178). The release current of the FI safety switch must be amply dimensioned, because
capacitive compensating currents (cable screens, filters) can easily lead to accidental re-
lease.
Possible reasons why a fault current safety switch is triggered accidentally:
Capacitive leakage currents of the line shielding occur during operation (especially in
the case of long, shielded motor feed lines).
Simultaneous connection of several inverters to the network.
Use of additional line filters.
Control wiring refers to the wires connected to the control terminal strip. Select control wir-
ing as follows:
Shielded wire is recommended to prevent electrical noise interference from causing im-
proper operation or nuisance tripping.
Use only UL, CUL and VDE recognized wire.
Wire voltage rating must be at least 300 V for 230 V AC systems.
[1] Use wire rated 90 C in an environment where the ambient temperature is greater than 40 C (122 F).
[2] Contact BERGES for further information.

See the Power and Current Ratings table on page 10 for the allowable fluctuation of AC line
voltage for your particular WF2 model. A supply voltage above or below the limits given in
the table will cause the drive to trip with either an overvoltage or undervoltage fault.
When supplying line voltages other than the factory default values (either 230 V AC, 460 V
AC, or 575 V AC depending on the model), set the Supply Voltage parameter (see page
106) to the appropriate value.
Exercise caution when applying the WF2 drive on low-line conditions.
For example, a WF2 2000 series inverter will operate properly on a 208 V AC line but the
maximum output voltage will be limited to 208 V AC. Now if a motor rated for 230 V AC line
voltage is controlled by this drive, higher motor currents and increased heating will result.
Therefore, ensure that the voltage rating of the motor matches the applied line voltage. If
other than 60 Hz output is desired, proper V/Hz can be programmed into the WF2 drive by
setting the Nom Mtr Voltage and Nom Mtr Freq parameters (see page 104 for more infor-
mation).
If the source of AC power to the WF2 drive is greater than 10 times the kVA rating shown
in table 11, an isolation transformer or line reactor is recommended. Consult BERGES for
assistance in sizing the reactor.
NOTE:
E-trAC WF2 Sensorless Vector Drives are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering
not more than 2500 rms symmetrical amperes at 10% above the maximum rated voltage.
In nearly all cases, the WF2 drive may be connected directly to a power source. However,
in the following cases, a properlysized isolation transformer or line reactor should be uti-
lized to minimize the risk of drive malfunction or damage:
When the line capacity exceeds the requirements of the drive (see Section 5.3.2).
When power factor correction capacitors are used on the drives power source.
When the power source experiences transient power interruptions or voltage spikes.
When the power source supplying the drive also supplies large devices (such as DC
drives) that contain controlled rectifiers.
Phase voltage imbalance of the input AC source can cause unbalanced currents and ex-
cessive heat in the drives input rectifier diodes and DC bus capacitors. Phase imbalance
can also damage motors running directly across the line.
CAUTION !
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Never use power-factor correction capacitors on motor terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W of
the E-trAC WF2 Sensorless Vector Drive. Doing so will damage the semiconductors.
Failure to observe this instruction can result in injury or equipment damage.
Before connecting line power to a WF2 drive, determine the configuration of the power sys-
tem. If the configuration cannot be determined with exactitude, at least have a solid under-
standing of how the power system is configured. Numerous configurations of distribution
transformers are in use today throughout the world. The principal difference between these
various configurations is the means used to introduce a connection to earth ground.
The primary consideration should be to measure the voltages from line to line (all combina-
tions in a three-phase system) and the voltage from each line connection to earth ground.
Ensure that each voltage measurement does not exceed the input voltage rating (including
tolerance) for your particular model.
If you discover different results than expected, contact BERGES for assistance. Failure to
observe these precautions may void the warranty.

Note that when testing for a ground fault, do not short any motor lead (T1/U, T2/V, or T3/
W) back to an input phase (L1/R, L2/S, or L3/T).
As shown in figure 5, it is necessary to provide fuses and a disconnect switch for the input
AC line in accordance with all applicable electrical codes. The WF2 drive is able to with-
stand a 150% overload for 60 s. For maximum protection of the drive, use the fuses listed
in tables 13, 14, and 15 found below and on the next page. The recommended supplier is

Recommended Fuses (575 V AC Models)
The WF2 Sensorless Vector Drive is supplied with an integrated dynamic braking (DB) re-
sistor, and is designed to have adequate dynamic braking for most applications. In cases
where short stopping times or high inertia loads require additional braking capacity, two ap-
proaches may be taken:
Purchase and install an external DB unit; or
Purchase and install an external resistor.
These methods are described in more detail in the following sections.
One method for adding braking capacity is to purchase a dynamic braking unit, either model
WDB211 (for 230 V AC WF2 drives), model WDB411 (for 460 V AC WF2 drives), or model
WDB510 (for 575 V AC WF2 drives).
These units allow the addition of braking capacity by utilizing off-the-shelf options. Braking
capacity is added in 7.5 kW increments, and multiple units may be connected to a single
drive.
To add a DB unit to a WF2 drive, connect it to the B and B+ or B and DB1 terminals (the
terminals are labeled differently depending on the horsepower rating of the drive; see page
31 for more information) and set parameter DB Config to Ext DB WDB (see page 106 for
more information on this parameter). See Form 1021 for further instructions on installing
and using a DB unit.
Rather than using a dynamic braking unit to increase braking capacity, an external resistor
(supplied by the user) may be used.
The drive may be configured to protect the external resistor by entering the resistors value,
thermal resistance, and thermal capacitance into parameters DB Res Value, DB Cth Val-
ue, and DB Rth Value (see page 107 for the default values and additional information on
these parameters). (The thermal specifications for the external resistor can be obtained
from the resistors manufacturer.) Table 16 provides the minimum DB resistance for each
model.
To use an external resistor, first disconnect the internal DB resistor and properly terminate
the wires leading to it. Then, connect the external resistor to the B+ and DB or DB1 and DB
terminals (the terminals are labeled differently depending on the horsepower rating of the
drive; see page 31 for more information). Finally, set parameter DB Config to Ext DB Res
and configure the DB Res Value, DB Cth Value, and DB Rth Value parameters for the
external resistor used.
Figure 6 shows the control terminals found on the I/O board of the WF2 drive. (The actual
control board cannot be accessed by the user.)
Note that due to labeling constraints, the labels for some terminals start on the left (either
on the side or top of the terminal block), are interrupted by the terminal screw, and then fin-
ish on the right (either on the side or top of the terminal block). For example, terminal A11
is labeled with A on the left side of the block and 11 to the right of the terminal screw on top
of the block. Similarly, terminal NC2 is labeled with N to the left of the terminal screw on top
of the block and then C2 on the right side of the block.
As is shown in the figure, the terminals are divided into four terminal blocks, each of which
pulls apart for ease of field wiring:
TB1 analog input, analog output, and digital output terminals.
TB2 output relay 1 (R1).
TB3 output relay 2 (R2).
TB4 digital input terminals.
See page 13 for specification information concerning these features. Table 17 describes
the control terminals.

(see page 113).
The input signal may be 0 to 10 V DC, 0 to 5 V DC, 10 V DC, 0 to 20 mA
DC, or 4 to 20 mA DC. These input signals provide speed references; DIP
A11
switch bank SW1 on the I/O board selects the type of input signal (see table
A12
18 on page 39 for information on setting the DIP switch).
If a 0 to 20 mA DC input signal is configured, the burden may be set to either
50 or 250 via the DIP switch. The 50 setting is intended for current
loop applications where multiple drives are chained together in series on
one analog current reference.
A potentiometer with a minimum value of 1 k may be used for this input.
This terminal is the reference supply for a potentiometer used in conjunc-
+10 tion with A1 or A2. The supply voltage is +10 V DC, with a maximum current
capacity of 10 mA.
This terminal is Analog Input 2. It is single-ended, and so the other lead
from the circuit must be connected to a CM terminal. The input range is con-
figured with parameter A2 Configure (see page 114), and may be an ana-
log input or a pulse train up to 100 kHz. The default setting for this input is
Normal.
This terminal may also be used as a Pulse Train Input function. This signal
may be an external pulse tach signal, or it may be the DPQ signal from an-
A21
other WF2 drive or WFC inverter. (A pull-up 4.7 k, 0.5 W resistor may
need to be connected between the A2 and +10 terminals for a signal from
a WFC inverter; consult with BERGES for further information.)
The input signal may be 0 to 10 V DC, 0 to 5 V DC, or 0/4 to 20 mA DC.The
burden for this terminal can only be 250 . (See table 18 on page 39 for
more information.)
A potentiometer with a minimum value of 1 k may be used for this input.
Open collector pulse train output. The output from this terminal is the drives
DPQ output frequency multiplied by 6 (default), 48, 96, or 3072 as set by param-
(formerly eter DPQ Scaling (see page 118). Output is 50% duty cycle, and may be
6FS) used with voltages up to 24 V DC. A 5 k pull-up resistor may be necessary
in some installations; contact BERGES for details.
Digital outputs 1 through 3. These are open collectors with external pull-up
resistors. Each output is capable of sinking up to 90 mA DC. They require
power to operate, either 24 V DC from the drive or 10 V DC to 35 V DC from
DQ1 to DQ3 an external power supply. They are configured by parameters DQ1 Config-
ure (default setting is Drive Rdy), DQ2 Configure (default setting is At
Speed), and DQ3 Configure (default setting is Run Rev); see page 117 for
more information.

Note that unlike all other terminals, this terminal cannot be configured for
pull-down logic. That is, a high input to this terminal is always regarded as
true and must be present if the drive is to operate.
Digital inputs. The function of a digital input is configured by the parameter
with the same name as the digital input in the Digital Inputs Group; see pag-
D3 to D10
es 111 and 113 for more information. Figure 7 on page 39 provides an illus-
tration of a typical digital input configuration.
Digital input. In 3-wire control, this must be a Stop input. In 2-wire control,

Description of WF2 Control Terminals
The settings of the switches in the SW1 DIP switch bank depend on the PC number listed
on the input/output board. For input/output boards labeled PC587, PC687, or PC762 the
SW1 DIP switch bank has eight DIP switches (SW1-1 to SW1-8). Use the settings shown
in table 18 on page 39 to configure this version of the SW1 DIP switch bank.
For input/output boards labeled PC653 or PC655, the SW1 DIP switch bank has six DIP
switches (SW1-1 to SW1-6). Use the settings shown in table 19 on page 40 to configure
this version of the SW1 DIP switch bank.
If you are unsure about the type of board, consult BERGES before setting the DIP switches.

This section provides information on making typical control wiring connections when the
digital inputs use Active-High logic (pull-up logic). This is the default type of logic used by
the WF2 drive.
If desired, Active-Low logic may be utilized by setting parameter Active Logic to Active
Low; see page 110 for more information. Section 5.6.4 starting on page 48 provides con-
nection drawings that utilize active-low logic.
Single-Direction Control
The WF2 drive supports either 2- or 3-wire control. Figure 8 shows the connections to the
digital input terminals for both types of control.
The default mode is 2-wire control. In this mode, digital input D1 is configured as the Run
input and is not programmable, although additional Run inputs may be configured by using
other digital inputs. An input on D1 will start the drive provided the Enable circuit is closed.
(The Enable circuit is the connection between terminals EN and +24V, which may be either
the factory-installed jumper or a normally-closed disconnect switch supplied by the custom-
er.)
Also note that line-start lockout is enabled by default. With this feature, the drive will not
start if a Run command is active when power is applied. To disable line-start lockout, con-
figure parameter Start Mode to Auto Start; see page 84 for more information.

Figure 8
2- and 3-Wire Control (Active-High Logic)
Setting parameter 2-Wire/3-Wire (see page 83) to 3-wire selects 3-wire control. In this type
of control, the drive is started based on the rising edge of a pulse on the Start digital input
which must be digital input D1. You cannot use another digital input for the Start input. In
addition, the Enable circuit must be closed for the drive to be started.
The drive is stopped on the falling edge of a pulse on the Stop digital input which must be
digital input D2. You cannot use another digital input for the Stop input when 3-wire control
is utilized.
An additional digital input may be added to the basic, single-direction 2-wire and 3-wire con-
trol discussed in the previous section to allow control in two directions. The WF2 drive sup-
ports two types of directional control: Forward/Reverse DI or Run Forward/Run Reverse.
The choice between the two is determined by the setting of parameter Reverse Mode,
which configures how digital inputs command Forward and Reverse; see page 85 for more
information on the Reverse Mode parameter.
In Forward/Reverse DI mode, one digital input initiates Run and a second digital input se-
lects whether the direction is Forward or Reverse. The starting and stopping of the drive is
accomplished in the same manner and using the same digital inputs as in the previous sec-
tion.
In Run Forward/Run Reverse mode, a digital input is assigned to be the Run Reverse input.
The required D1 digital input for starting then becomes the Run Forward input by default.
Figure 9 shows an example of this type of two-direction control with D5 assigned as the Run
Reverse input.

NOTE: Inputs D3 to D10 are programmable; see page 111 for configuration information.
An input on D1 will cause the drive to begin running in the Forward direction (provided the
Enable circuit is closed). Similarly, an input on D5 (in this example) will cause the drive to
begin running in the Reverse direction. Note that if both inputs are active, the Run Forward
input has priority regardless of which one was activated first.
Jogging Operation
The WF2 drive supports Jog operations for both 2- and 3-wire control. Two jogging modes
are available: Run/Jog DI or Pushbutton Jog, with parameter Jog Mode selecting which is
used. (See page 84 for information on this parameter.)
Jogging operations are controlled by a digital input (D2 to D10 for 2-wire control or D3 to
D10 for 3-wire control, with D3 being the default choice). The selected digital input also
needs to be configured for the type of jogging (see the Digital Inputs Group starting on page
110 for more information).
In the Run/Jog DI mode, a maintained-contact digital input is required. Figure 10 shows an
example of the connections for this mode with digital input D4 assigned to jogging.
In this example for 2-wire control, if the drive is running, activating D4 will cause the drive
to ramp from the normal reference to the Jog reference using the appropriate acceleration
or deceleration Jog ramp. When D4 is deactivated, the drive will ramp back to the normal
reference using the appropriate acceleration or deceleration Jog ramp.
If the drive is stopped rather than running, activating D4 and then activating the Run digital
input (D1) will cause the drive to start and ramp to the Jog reference using the Jog accel-
eration ramp. When D1 is deactivated (and D4 is still activated), the drive will ramp to stop
using the Jog deceleration ramp.

In this example for 3-wire control, when D4 is active, jogging operations may occur. The jog
speed and ramp are enabled as set by the appropriate parameters. While D4 is active,
pressing the Start pushbutton causes a ramp to the jogging reference speed and releasing
the Start pushbutton causes the speed to go to zero using the jog ramp.
Note that if the jog input is opened (returned to Run) while Start is pressed, the drive will
ramp back to the normal reference speed without first stopping.
In the second type of jogging (Pushbutton Jog), a pushbutton is incorporated into the con-
trol scheme to initiate jogging. Figure 11 on page 44 shows an example of this type of jog-
ging.

NOTE: Inputs D3 to D10 are programmable; see page 111 for configuration information.
In this example, in both 2- and 3-wire control, if the drive is already running, pressing the
jog pushbutton will have no effect. When the drive is stopped and the input to D4 is activat-
ed by pressing the pushbutton, the drive will ramp to the jogging reference speed (set by
parameter Jog Ref Config; see page 90) in the time set by parameter Jog Accel Time.
When the input is deactivated, the drive speed goes to zero in the time set by parameter
Jog Decel Time.
Note that these examples showed 2- and 3-wire control systems running in one direction.
Jogging may also be incorporated into control systems that run in two directions. For these
applications, two digital inputs are required one for Forward Jog and one for Reverse Jog
with the particular type of jogging selected by parameter configuration (Run/Jog DI or Push-
button Jog) controlling the jog operations. Figure 12 on page 45 shows examples of For-
ward and Reverse jogging operations.

Preset Speeds
The WF2 drive supports up to seven preset speeds, which are in addition to the reference
speed of the drive. The preset speeds may be selected by using digital inputs or serial com-
munication to set bits 5, 6, and 7 of Cntl Word 1 (see page 133 for information on this pa-
rameter). Figure 13 shows an example of connections for seven preset speeds using three
digital inputs.
If digital inputs are used, the number of preset speeds available is determined by the
number of digital inputs assigned this functionality:
If three digital inputs are used, all seven preset speeds are available.
If two digital inputs are used, only Preset Speed 1, Preset Speed 2, and Preset Speed
3 are available.
If only one digital input is used, only Preset Speed 1 is available.
(See parameters D2 Configure through D10 Configure on pages 110 through 113 for
more information on assigning digital inputs to selection of preset speeds.)
The preset speeds are configured by parameters Preset Speed 1 to Preset Speed 7 found
in the Preset Speeds parameter group (see page 96 for more information on the Preset
Speeds Group). Note that the speeds are in addition to the reference speed of the drive,
and that when selected, they only change the active reference speed not the actual speed
of the drive.
A particular speed is selected by the combination of inputs on the terminals assigned to the
preset speeds. Tables 20, 21, and 22 on page 46 show what speeds are selected by an
input combination depending on the number of digital inputs used.

Example of Connections for Seven Preset Speeds (Active-High Logic)
NOTE: Inputs D3 to D10 are programmable; see page 111 for configuration information.
For commanding preset speeds via serial communication, the speeds are selected much
as when three digital inputs are configured. A combination of on and off states (1s and 0s)
of bits 5, 6, and 7 of Cntl Word 1 determine the active preset speed. Table 23 on page 47
shows how the settings of the bits combine to select an active preset speed.
Note that if fewer than seven preset speeds are desired, you do not need to set all three
preset speed bits. By leaving one (or two) of the bits in its default state of 0, and only varying
the value of the other two (or one) bits, fewer preset speeds could be commanded.
For example, table 23 on page 47 shows that if bit 7 remained at 0 while serial communi-
cations changed the values of the other two bits, only preset speeds 1 through 3 (plus the
reference speed) would be available.
DC Injection Braking by DI
The WF2 drive supports DC injection braking to assist in stopping high-inertia loads. A dig-
ital input (D2 to D10 for 2-wire control or D3 to D10 for 3-wire control; see page 110) may
be selected as the input to activate DC injection braking, and the parameter that controls
the functionality of the selected input is set for DC injection braking.
When controlled by a digital input, DC injection braking is not a timed function. As long as
the selected digital input is active, direct current will be injected into the motor.
Speed Potentiometer
A speed potentiometer may be connected to Analog Input 2 (the A21 terminal), as shown
in figure 14. (Analog Input 1, the A11 and A12 terminals, may also be configured to accept
a speed potentiometer input.)

Low logic is selected by setting parameter Active Logic to Active Low; see page 110 for
more information.) Note that this section only provides the connection diagrams; for a dis-
cussion of the function diagrammed, see the previous section.

The WF2 drive supports Modbus communication. The Modbus communication port is locat-
ed at the bottom of the I/O board (see Figure 6 on page 36). The pin-out for this connection
is shown in Figure 21.
The Communication parameter group contains the parameters that configure the type of
Modbus communication (the description of the parameters starts on page 131).

Pin-out Diagram for the Modbus Connection
6.1 Introduction
The WF2 drive provides a comprehensive set of parameters to allow you to use the drive
in nearly any industrial application. While the drive can meet the requirements of many ap-
plications right out of the box, customization of parameter values to better suit your partic-
ular application is easily accomplished with the standard keypad, with the enhanced key-
pad, or via serial communication.
This section describes the two keypads and remote communication as well as setting up
security for the WF2 drive and programming control paths.
6.2.1 Overview
The standard keypad is shipped with non-NSF-certified WF2 models. It is located on the
face of the WF2 drive, and provides local control and programming of the drive. Figure 22
shows the keypad.
This keypad provides access to a comprehensive set of parameters that allow the WF2
drive to meet the needs of almost any application. To make customization as simple as pos-
sible, two levels of programming are available.
FWD STOP
REV PROG
SHIFT ENTER
Figure 22
The Standard Keypad for WF2 Drives
The first level, called Level 1 Programming, provides access to the most often needed pa-
rameters. The second level, called Level 2 Programming, provides access to all WF2 pa-
rameters including those found in Level 1 Programming. See section 7 starting on page
74 for more information on these two programming levels.
In addition, if desired, security may be enabled to limit a users access to drive parameters.
Security is discussed in greater detail in section 6.5 starting on page 68.
Key Function
This key causes the drive to begin operating in the Forward direction unless key-
pad control is disabled by parameter Terminal/Keypad (see page 85 for more
information).
This key causes the drive to begin operating in the Reverse direction unless key-
pad control is disabled by parameter Terminal/Keypad (see page 85) or param-
eter Reverse Mode is not set to Run FwdRev (which enables the REV key; see
page 85 for more information).
The SHIFT key is used in a variety of ways:
When used in conjunction with the PROG key, SHIFT initiates Level 2 pro-
gramming. The display will then show the last parameter group accessed or
the Security group if this is the first time Level 2 programming has been initi-
ated since the last power-up.
When programming, SHIFT returns one level and discards any changes that
were made to parameter values. For example, when a list of parameters in a
group is displayed, SHIFT displays the list of parameter groups.
When the Operate display is shown, SHIFT is used in conjunction with the
ENTER key to show the Active Faults and Fault History displays.
SHIFT may be used in conjunction with the up or down arrow key to increase
the scroll rate for parameter values.
This key, the up arrow key, is used in a variety of ways:
It increases the speed of the drive when the keypad is the source for the
speed reference.
It scrolls forward through a list of parameter groups or parameters within a
group. (When the last group or parameter is highlighted, it scrolls to the be-
ginning of the list.) The rate of scrolling may be increased by holding the key
down for 5 s or pressing the SHIFT key along with the up arrow key.
When a parameters value is shown, it increases the value. The scroll rate
may be increased as described in the preceding bullet.
When a list of faults is displayed, it moves from one fault to the next. After the
last fault is displayed, it returns to the beginning.
This key, the down arrow key, is used in a variety of ways:
It decreases the speed of the drive when the keypad is the source for the
speed reference.
It scrolls backward through a list of parameter groups or parameters within a
group. (When the first group or parameter is highlighted, it scrolls to the end
of the list.) The rate of scrolling may be increased by holding the key down for
5 s or pressing the SHIFT key along with the down arrow key.
When a parameters value is shown, it decreases the value. The scroll rate
may be increased as described in the preceding bullet.
When a list of faults is displayed, it moves from one fault to the previous fault.
After the first fault is displayed, it returns to the end.
Table 24
Functions of the Keys on the Standard Keypad
Key Function
The ENTER key is used in a variety of ways:
As described above for the SHIFT key, it is used in conjunction with SHIFT to
access Active Fault and Fault History displays. (You may want to reset the
fault from the Active Fault display by pressing the STOP key.)
When a parameter group is highlighted, ENTER accesses the first parameter
in that group (if this is the first time that the parameter group was accessed)
or the last parameter accessed.
When a parameter is highlighted in the list of parameters in a group, ENTER
displays the current setting for the parameter.
When a parameters value is shown and a new value is set, ENTER stores
the new value in memory and returns to the list of parameters.
Parameter Enter Key may be configured to allow this key to act as a toggle
switch between Local or Remote modes, or between Terminal Strip and Key-
pad control modes; see page 88 for more information on this parameter.
The PROG key is used in a variety of ways:
When pressed by itself, it initiates Level 1 programming. The display will then
show the first parameter in the Level 1 group (Output Freq; see table 28 on
page 75) if this is the first time that Level 1 programming has been initiated,
or the last parameter accessed will be shown.
When PROG is used in conjunction with the SHIFT key, Level 2 programming
is initiated. See the description of the SHIFT key on the previous page.
When the list of parameter groups, or the list of parameters within a group, is
displayed, PROG causes the Operate display to be shown.
When a parameters value is displayed, PROG discards any changes made
to the value and causes the Operate display to be shown.
When PROG is used in conjunction with the STOP key, the drive enters Re-
flash Mode; see page 59 for more information on this mode.
The Stop key halts the operation of the WF2 drive unless it is disabled by param-
eter Stop Key. This parameter also determines the type of stop (coast or ramp)
that occurs when the Stop key is pressed; see page 88 for more information.
Note that parameter Man Fault Reset (see page 122) may be configured to al-
low the Stop key to be used to manually reset the drive after a fault. To use the
Stop key in this way, an active fault/warning display must be shown in the keypad
window; the Stop key will not reset the drive if the Operate or Programming dis-
play is shown.
Table 24
Functions of the Keys on the Standard Keypad
The standard keypad provides a 2 line by 16 character display. The display varies by the
mode in which the drive is placed, which may be:
Operate Mode
Programming Mode
Active Faults and Fault History Mode
The displays for these modes will be described in the following sections.
Note that the default language used for displays is English. This may be changed by setting
parameter Language to a different value. See page 128 for information on this parameter.
Figure 23
Sample Operate Display and What Information May Be Shown
Operate Mode
The Operate mode is entered automatically approximately one second after the power-up
display is shown, which provides information about the software version of the drive.
The Operate mode is the principal mode for the standard keypad. The display for this mode
provides operational information about the WF2 drive. Figure 23 on the previous page
shows a typical Operate display and notes what the various codes shown in the display
mean. Note that if more than one status is active, the higher-priority status will be shown.
Also note that you may select a different display for the Operate mode. Parameter Display
Mode allows you to select a display that shows a custom unit instead of output frequency.
Alternately, this parameter allows you to choose to display retention time. See page 127 for
more information on this parameter.
Programming Mode
As described in table 24 on page 54, Programming mode is entered by pressing either the
PROG key (to access Level 1 parameters) or SHIFT+PROG (to access Level 2 parame-
ters). (See page 75 for the parameters in each programming level.) Programming is slightly
different for each level, as explained in the following paragraphs. Note that if no keys are
pressed for 10 minutes while Programming mode is active, the drive will automatically re-
vert to the Operate mode.
To program a parameters value in Level 1 programming, perform the following steps:
Figure 24
Standard Keypad Display for the Two Types of Parameters
NOTE: The display of the memory address is optional, and by default is not shown. Param-
eter Show Param # sets whether the address is displayed; see page 129.
To program a parameters value in Level 2 programming, perform the following steps:
1. Press SHIFT+PROG to initiate Level 2 programming.
The Operate display will change to the list of parameters groups. An arrowhead indi-
cates which one is selected.
2. If the desired parameter group is indicated by the arrowhead, press ENTER to select the
groups and display the parameters in that group. If the indicated group is not the one
you want to program, use the up or down arrow keys to move the arrowhead to the de-
sired group, and then press ENTER to select the group and display its parameters.
3. If the desired parameter is indicated by the arrowhead, press ENTER to select the pa-
rameter and display its current value. If the indicated parameter is not the one you want
to program, use the up or down arrow keys to move the arrowhead to the desired pa-
rameter, and then press ENTER to select the parameter and display its current value.
After the ENTER key is pressed, the value for the parameter will be displayed. The WF2
drive uses two types of parameters. One type is assigned a numerical value, while the
second type is assigned a function. See figure 24 for how the two types of parameters
are displayed.
4. If the parameter is unlocked, use the up or down arrow keys to change the parameters
value to the desired value.
5. Press ENTER to save the new value. (If you do not wish to save the new value, press
SHIFT to return to the list of parameters or PROG to return to the Operate mode.)
6. The list of parameters will now be shown. You may select another parameter, or you
may return to the list of parameter groups by pressing SHIFT. If you are finished pro-
gramming and wish to return to the Operate mode, press PROG.
When a fault or warning occurs, the Operate mode automatically changes to the Active
Fault mode. The drive stores up to three active faults or warnings, and provides a separate
display for each. Figure 25 provides a sample display for an active fault.
Display for Active Faults and Warnings Display for Fault History
Figure 25
Display for Active Faults and Warnings
Once the active fault display is shown, you must correct the condition causing the fault and
then reset the drive to return to the Operate mode. However, if all three active fault displays
only show warnings, you may return to the Operate mode by pressing SHIFT+ENTER.
In addition to the active faults, the drive maintains a history of faults. The three most-recent
faults are kept in the fault history log. The log is accessed by pressing SHIFT+ENTER. As
shown figure 25, the display is the same as for active faults, except that an H is shown in
the upper left corner. (See table 29 on page 141 for a description of fault codes.)
After viewing the fault history log, return to the Operate mode by pressing SHIFT+ENTER.
The display window on the digital keypad has five LEDs. The LEDs provide information
about the drives operating condition as shown in the table below:
The firmware of the WF2 Sensorless Vector Drive can be upgraded by a process called re-
flashing. This allows the latest features to be implemented in existing hardware. For more
information on this capability, refer to Form 1232, Reflash Procedures for the E-trAC WF2
Series Sensorless Vector Drive.
This section is for those users who would like to get up and running quickly without exten-
sive research through this manual. For a quick start, follow these steps:
1. Read sections 5.1 through 5.4 as well as 6.1 and 6.2 before proceeding.
In many cases, your drive will perform perfectly without making any changes to the fac-
tory settings.
The factory setting is for the drive to run a typical NEMA B induction motor to a maximum
speed of 60.00 Hz with acceleration and deceleration times of 3 s. The jog frequency is
set for 5.0 Hz. The REV key on the keypad is disabled.
2. Perform all procedures for installation as specified in section 4. Double-check that the
proper voltage is available for the drive before applying power.
3. Apply AC power to the input terminals.
For approximately 1 s, the display will indicate the model number of the unit along with
the MCP software revision number. If an enhanced keypad is connected to the unit, the
software revision number for the keypad will also be shown. After showing this informa-
tion, the display will change to that for the Operate mode, and only the Power LED will
be lit.
4. Press the FWD key on the keypad.
5. Press the up arrow key to increase the desired running frequency.
When the motor starts to turn, check the direction of rotation. If the motor is turning in
the wrong direction, stop the drive. Remove AC power and wait five minutes. Then re-
verse any two motor leads at M1, M2, or M3, and restore AC power.
Use the up and down arrow keys, along with the STOP and FWD keys, to control the oper-
ation of the drive.
6.4.1 Introduction
The WF2 enhanced keypad is standard with NSF-certified models and optional on other
models rated 11 kW and above. The enhanced keypad is also available for use in hand-
held and remote door-mount installations; see section 9 for further information. It offers a
significantly different look and feel for programming. It also allows you to monitor important
WF2 parameters. Figure 26 shows the enhanced keypad.
The enhanced keypad provides a 4 line by 16 character display (twice as large as that found
on the standard keypad), three LEDs for status information, a 09 numeric keypad (with
decimal), and several function keys that are used for navigation and control. The following
sections describe the keys found on the enhanced keypad and explain how to navigate to
various displays.
Table 25 on page 61 describes the functions of the keys found on the enhanced keypad
when the keypad is the active control source.
Figure 26
The Enhanced Keypad for WF2 Drives
Key Description
This key performs two functions:
When pressed by itself, it acts as the F1 function key, the function
of which is defined by parameter F1 Key Config (see page 129).
When SHIFT is pressed at the same time as this key, the keypad
enters Monitor Mode (see page 62 for more information on this
mode).
This key performs two functions:
When pressed by itself, it acts as the F2 function key, the function
of which is defined by parameter F2 Key Config (see page 129).
When SHIFT is pressed at the same time as this key, the keypad
enters Operate Mode (see page 62 for more information on this
mode).
This key performs two functions:
When pressed by itself, it acts as the F3 function key, the function
of which is defined by parameter F3 Key Config (see page 129).
When SHIFT is pressed at the same time as this key, the keypad
enters Parameter Mode (see page 63 for more information on this
mode).
This key performs two functions:
When pressed by itself, it acts as the F4 function key, the function
of which is defined by parameter F4 Key Config (see page 129).
When SHIFT is pressed at the same time as this key, the keypad
enters Direct Parameter Access Mode (see page 65 for more infor-
mation on this mode).
When the keypad is in the Direct Parameter Access Mode, the numeric
keypad allows you to set the value of a parameter by keying in the val-
ue rather than by scrolling to the desired value.
The function of this key, the up arrow key, is dependent on the mode
of the keypad:
In modes other than programming, the up arrow key moves the ar-
rowhead from one menu selection to the next selection.
When programming the value of a parameter, it increases the value
of the parameter. If the key is held down, the rate of scrolling will in-
crease. The rate of scrolling will increase still further if the SHIFT
key is pressed along with the up arrow key.
The function of this key, the down arrow key, is dependent on the mode
of the keypad:
In modes other than programming, the down arrow key moves the
arrowhead from one menu selection to the previous selection.
When programming the value of a parameter, it decreases the val-
ue of the parameter. If the key is held down, the rate of scrolling will
increase. The rate of scrolling will increase still further if the SHIFT
key is pressed along with the down arrow key.
The ESC key is used to discard any changes made and move up one
level.
The ENT key is used to save the new value of a parameter. After sav-
ing the new value, the display moves up one level.
This key causes the Menu Display to be shown, from which other key-
pad modes may be selected. See page 66 for more information.
Table 25
Functions of the Keys on the Enhanced Keypad
Key Description
The REV key, if enabled by parameter Reverse Mode (see page 85),
commands the motor to begin running in the Reverse direction.
The FWD key commands the motor to begin running in the Forward di-
rection.
The STOP key, if enabled by parameter Stop Key (see page 88), com-
mands the motor to stop using the type of stop configured by parame-
ter Stop Mode (see page 84) and using the active deceleration ramp.
If a fault occurs, the STOP key resets the fault.
Table 25
Functions of the Keys on the Enhanced Keypad
The enhanced keypad provides a variety of modes to assist you in monitoring and control-
ling a WF2 drive. The principal modes of the enhanced keypad are as follows:
The Operate Mode
The Monitor Mode
The Parameter Mode
The Direct Parameter Access Mode
The Menu Display Mode
This section describes each of the modes and the displays that are shown for each.
Note, that while each display is specially tailored to the mode in which its shown, the fourth
line of the display is common to all modes except the Operate Mode. The fourth line shows
status information (drive status, output frequency, and active control source). Figure 27 on
page 63 shows the fourth line of the display along with the codes that may appear on this
line and what each means.
The Operate Mode is the primary mode of the enhanced keypad. The keypad automatically
enters this mode after power-up and a short delay. In this mode, operational information
about the WF2 drive is displayed. From this mode, you may branch to other modes either
via the Menu Display Mode or by pressing one of the navigation keys on the keypad. To
return to this mode from other modes, press SHIFT+OPR/F2.
Figure 28 on page 64 shows a sample display of the Operate Mode along with the various
codes that may be displayed and what each means.
In Monitor Mode, you may observe the value of selected parameters while the WF2 drive
is running. This mode is activated by pressing SHIFT+MON/F1, or by navigating to this
mode from the Menu Display Mode.
The parameters that may be monitored are as follows:
Output Freq
Output Current
Drive Temp
Out Torque (%)
Active Spd Ref
Output Voltage
Drive Load
Motor Temp
Output Power
Motor RPM
Out Torque (Nm)
Figure 27
Common Status Line for Displays in All Modes Except the Operate Mode
When this mode is first entered, the current value of parameter Output Freq will be shown.
To view the other parameter values, use the down arrow key to scroll through the parame-
ters. (Of course, you may use the up arrow key to return to a parameter shown earlier.)
In the Parameter Mode, you may configure the value of a parameter by scrolling. This man-
ner of configuration is similar to that with the standard keypad. You may access this mode
by pressing SHIFT+PAR/F3 or by selecting Parameter Mode from the Menu Display
Mode.

Enhanced Keypad Display of the Two Types of Parameters
7. Change the displayed value to the desired value. For parameters that configure a func-
tion, use the up or down arrow key to move the cursor to the desired function and then
press ENT. Note that the second line does not show the function just configured; instead
it shows a number corresponding to its position in the function list (with 0 being the first
function listed). For example, in figure 29, the number 1 for the current value indicates
that 2-wire is selected, not 3-wire.
For parameters that are assigned a value, you may also scroll to the desired value by
using the up and/or down arrow keys and then pressing ENT to store the new value. Al-
ternately, you could use the numeric keypad to type the parameters value.
With either type of values, if you change your mind and do not wish to save the selected
value (and you have not yet pressed ENT), press ESC to abort and return to the display
showing the parameters in the parameter group.
8. After configuring the value of the parameter, the list of parameters will return to the dis-
play. You may now select another parameter from the same group to configure, or press
ESC to return to the list of parameter groups. To return to the Operate Mode, press
SHIFT+OPR/F2 (or navigate to it via the Menu Display mode).
In the Direct Parameter Access Mode, you may navigate directly to a parameter by entering
the parameters address. (Parameter addresses are shown in section 7 and 11.) You ac-
cess this mode by pressing SHIFT+DIR/F4 or by selecting Direct Params from the Menu
Display Mode. Once this mode is active, you may enter a new value for the parameter by
keying in the value on the numeric keypad (rather than scrolling to the desired value). Note
that if no keys are pressed for 10 minutes while this mode is active, the drive will automat-
ically revert to the Operate mode.
To configure the value of a parameter in this mode, follow these steps:
1. When the Direct Parameter Access Mode is entered, the display will ask you for the ad-
dress of the desired parameter number as shown below:
2. Obtain the parameter address from chapter 11 and type the address. As you type the
address, it will appear on the third line of the display.
3. Press ENT.
4. The parameter will be displayed and will show its current value. Note that this value may
be an actual number (such as 120 Hz) or a function (such as 2-wire). If the value is an
actual number, the fourth line will show the range for the parameter. If the value is a func-
tion, a range is not provided. Typical displays for these two types of parameter values
are shown below:
5. Change the displayed value to the desired value. For parameters that configure a func-
tion, use the up or down arrow key to move the cursor to the desired function and then
press ENT. Note that the second line does not show the function just configured; instead
it shows a number corresponding to its position in the function list (with 0 being the first
function listed).
For parameters that are assigned a value, use the numeric keypad to key in the param-
eters value. (Alternately, you may scroll to the desired value by using the up or down
arrow keys.)
6. Press ENT to save the new value. (If you do not wish to save the selected value, press
ESC to abort and return to the display showing the parameters in the parameter group.)
7. After configuring the value of the parameter, the list of parameters will return to the dis-
play. You may now select another parameter to configure, or press ESC to return to the
list of parameter groups. To return to the Operate Mode, press SHIFT+OPR/F2 (or nav-
igate to it via the Menu Display mode).
The Menu Display Mode may be thought of as the hub on which all the other modes are
mounted. Once you navigate to this mode by pressing the MENU key on the keypad, you
may highlight the desired mode (by pressing the up or down arrow key) and then pressing
the ENT key. The selected mode will then become active, and the display for the mode will
be shown on the keypad.
When a fault occurs, the Active Faults mode automatically activates. The display for Active
Faults shows the phrase Active Fault followed a sequential number. The second line
shows the description of the fault, while line three shows the fault code number. (See table
29 on page 141 for a list of fault descriptions and codes, as well as suggestions for recov-
ering from the fault condition.) A typical display would appear as follows:
To recover from a fault, correct the condition causing the fault and then press STOP.
The enhanced keypad stores the four most-recent faults, and these are viewed in the Fault
History mode. This mode is accessed by navigating to the Menu Display Mode and then
selecting Fault History.
The display for Fault History shows the phrase Fault Hist followed a sequential number,
with number 1 indicating the most-recent fault. The second line shows the description of the
fault, while line three shows the fault code number. (See table 29 on page 141 for a list of
fault descriptions and codes, as well as suggestions for recovering from the fault condi-
tion.)A typical display would appear as follows:
Upload/Download Mode
For MCP software revisions of 3.71 or greater and enhanced keypads with software revi-
sion 4.00 or greater, an enhanced keypad (EKP) may be used to store a complete param-
eter set from a WF2 drive. This becomes particularly useful when using an enhanced key-
pad as a hand-held controller/programmer.
To use this facility, the customer's parameter set must first be stored in the WF2 via param-
eter Param STO/RCL. The customer set of parameters may then be uploaded to the EKP
for transport to another WF2 drive.
To upload the parameter set, perform the following steps:
1. On the EKP, press the MENU button.
2. Use the cursor to navigate to the keypad setup screen.
3. Press ENT.
4. Highlight the option entitled UPLoad EEPROM, which is the upload parameter.
5. Press the ENT key twice to execute the upload operation. During the transfer, the dis-
play looks like this:
DRV>>>>EKP
When the upload completes successfully, line 3 of the keypad will show STORED and
line 4 will provide a BERGES application number such as w01V131. If the upload is
not successful, the display will indicate Flash Prog Error.
You may now connect the EKP to the WF2 drive to which the parameter set will be down-
loaded. To download the parameter set, perform the following steps:
1. On the EKP, press the MENU button.
2. Use the cursor to navigate to the keypad setup screen.
3. Press ENT.
4. Highlight the option entitled DNload EEPROM, which is the download parameter.
5. Press the ENT key twice to execute the download operation. When the download oper-
ation starts, the display will show the following information:
The model number of the source drive - for example, WF2C1S010;
The MCP code revision of the source drive - for example, MCP3.90; and
The application number being transferred - for example, W01V131.
During the download operation, the display will indicate:
EKP>>>>DRV
6. Once the download operation is complete, activate the downloaded parameter set in the
destination drive by loading it from the stored customer set. To accomplish this, navigate
to parameter Param STO/RCL and select Load Param. The downloaded parameter
will then become the active parameter set.
NOTE:
Some model specific adjustments may be required if the model number of the source and
destination drives are not identical.
The enhanced keypad features three LEDs to provide status information. The following ta-
ble describes these three LEDS.
6.5 Security
The WF2 drive allows you to configure access levels to prevent unauthorized access. Two
levels of access are available:
Configure Access a user may read all WF2 parameters, and configure the non-read-
only parameters, provided the drive is stopped. This is the default setting for access.
Configure Run Access a user may read all WF2 parameters, and configure the non-
read-only parameters, whether the drive is running or stopped (although some parame-
ters may only be configured if the drive is stopped).
An access level is assigned by setting the value of parameter Access Level found in the
Security Group; see page 76 for more information on this parameter. The password (actu-
ally, a four-digit pass-number) for the security level is set by parameter Set Password;
see page 76.
Standard Keypad
When security is enabled and the PROG key or SHIFT+PROG keys are pressed to enter
programming mode, all parameters (except the Enter Password parameter) will be locked.
To unlock the parameters that are available at the configured security level, press
SHIFT+PROG to initiate Level 2 programming and then navigate to the Enter Password
parameter, which is in the Security Group.
Once this parameter is displayed, press the up or down key to set the displayed value to
the value of the password, and then press the Enter key.
After the Enter key is pressed, the drive compares the value of Enter Password with that
in the Set Password parameter. If they match, the user is granted access at the level set
by the Access Level parameter. (If they do not match, access is granted, but with Read-
Only status.)
Note that if the WF2 drive is power-cycled while the parameters are unlocked or if the Pro-
gramming mode reverts to the Operate mode due to inactivity, the parameters will become
locked again. You must re-enter the password to configure the settings of the accessible
parameters.
Enhanced Keypad
When a user attempts to navigate to the Parameter mode or Direct Parameter Access
mode, a prompt will appear asking for the password. Type the password and press ENTER.
If the password is accepted, the desired mode is entered.
Note that if the WF2 drive is power-cycled while the parameters are unlocked or if the Pa-
rameter mode or Direct Parameter Access mode reverts to the Operate mode due to inac-
tivity, the parameters will become locked again. You must re-enter the password to config-
ure the settings of the accessible parameters.
Standard Keypad
Enhanced Keypad
To disable security with the enhanced keypad, navigate to the Set Password parameter in
the Security group and set the value of this parameter to 0.
Control paths are the means for sending the frequency (speed) reference and start/stop
commands to the WF2 drive. The control path may be the same for both the frequency ref-
erence and start/stop commands, or different paths may be used for each.
The WF2 drive provides three control paths: the keypad (either standard or enhanced), the
terminal strip, and the serial link. The table below further elaborates these control paths.
You may determine which control paths are currently active by reading two parameters.
These read-only parameters are Freq Ref Ctrl and Start Stop Ctrl; see page 80 for more
information on these parameters.
The WF2 drive provides two methods for selecting the control path for the frequency refer-
ence and start/stop commands.
The first method is to set the Terminal/Keypad parameter to a value that corresponds to
the desired control path or override this parameter by setting bits 0 and/or 1 of parameter
Cntl Word 1 to 1 to allow the serial link to be used to select the control path.
As shown on page 85 where the Terminal/Keypad parameter is described, the first four
functions for this parameter allow you to select the control path directly (in the first two func-
tions, the control path is the same for frequency reference and start/stop commands; the
next two functions permit different control paths for each):
Kypd-C & R: The keypad is both the source for control functions and for the reference
frequency. The Operate display on the keypad shows KYP to denote this
selection.
TS-C & R: Inputs to the terminal strip are the source for both control functions and the
reference frequency. The Operate display on the keypad shows TRM to
denote this selection.
KP-C/TS-R: The keypad is the source for control functions, while inputs to the terminal
strip are the source for the reference frequency. The Operate display on
the keypad shows KST to denote this selection.
TS-C/KP-R: Inputs to the terminal strip perform control functions, while the keypad is
the source for the reference frequency. The Operate display on the keypad
shows TSK to denote this selection.
These four settings are particularly useful when the application does not require a control
path that can be altered on the fly. They assign the control path for the reference frequen-
cy and start/stop commands to either the keypad or the terminal strip, and this assignment
cannot be altered except by re-configuring the Terminal/Keypad parameter.
The remaining functions that may be configured for the Terminal/Keypad parameter permit
greater flexibility by allowing you to select the control path on the fly. These functions es-
sentially configure a switch to select whether the keypad or the terminal strip is the control
path. Note that this is an either/or selection - you cannot configure mixed modes as with
the two settings described earlier (TS-C/KP-R and KP-C/TS-R). The last three functions
that may be assigned to the Terminal/Keypad parameter are:
T/K by DI: A digital input is configured to switch between the keypad as the source for
both the reference frequency and start/stop commands and inputs to the
terminal strip as the source for both the reference frequency and start/stop
commands. When the digital input is open or false, the control path is the
keypad; when the digital input is closed or true, the terminal strip is the con-
trol path.
T/K by Fkey: A function key on the enhanced keypad is configured to switch the control
path between the keypad and the terminal strip (see parameters F1 Key
Config through F4 Key Config on page 129 for more information).
T/K by SerLnk: Serial communication is used to set bit 11 of parameter Cntl Word 1 to 0
or 1. When bit 11 is set to 0, the control path is the keypad; when bit 11 is
set to 1, the terminal strip is the control path.
The setting of parameter Terminal/Keypad may be overridden, which allows the serial link
to be used to select the control path. This is accomplished by writing to bits 0 and 1 of pa-
rameter Cntl Word 1.
As described on page 133 where parameter Cntl Word 1 is described, Bit 0 determines
how the control path for start/stop commands is selected. When the bit is set to 0, the con-
trol path for start/stop commands is selected using the means set by parameter Terminal/
Keypad. When the bit is set to 1, the control path for start/stop commands is the serial link.
Similarly, Bit 1 determines how the control path for the reference frequency is selected.
When the bit is set to 0, the control path for the reference frequency is selected using the
means set by parameter Terminal/Keypad. When the bit is set to 1, the control path for the
reference frequency is the serial link.
If only one of the two bits is set to 1, the Operate display will show SLP to denote that the
serial link is only partially the control path. If both bits are set to 1, the Operate display will
show SLC to denote that the serial link is entirely the control path.
Note that you may temporarily halt serial link control by configuring a digital input to perform
the SLO (serial link override) function. When the configured digital input becomes true, the
status of bits 0 and 1 are ignored, control via the serial link is halted, and the selection of
the control path reverts to parameter Terminal/Keypad.
Method 2: Selection via Parameters Local/Remote, Local Config, and Remote Config
The second, alternate method is to set the Local/Remote parameter to a value other than
None, with the other values for this parameter being the means to switch between Local
and Remote modes. Once the means for switching modes is selected, the current mode
and the settings of parameters Local Config and Remote Config determine the control
path.
Note that if you use this method for specifying control paths, the SLO function is unavaila-
ble.
As described on page 86 where the Local/Remote parameter is described, three means
are available to switch between Local and Remote modes:
L/R by DI: A digital input is configured to switch between Local and Remote modes.
When the digital input is open or false, the drive is in Local mode; when the
digital input is closed or true, the drive is in Remote mode.
L/R by Fkey: A function key on the enhanced keypad is configured to switch between Lo-
cal and Remote modes (see parameters F1 Key Config through F4 Key
Config on page 129 for more information).
L/R by SerLnk: Serial communication is used to switch between Local and Remote modes.
When Bit 10 of parameter Cntl Word 1 is set to 0, the drive is in Local
mode; when Bit 10 is set to 1, the drive is in Remote mode.
The Operate display will show either LOC (Local) or REM (Remote) to denote what mode
is currently active.
Once the drive is placed in Local or Remote mode, the settings of parameters Local Config
and Remote Config (respectively) determine how the control path is selected.
As described on page 86, the following functions may be assigned to the Local Config pa-
rameter to specify the control path:
Kypd-C&R: The keypad is the control path for both the reference frequency and start/
stop commands.
Ser-C&R: The serial link is the control path for both the reference frequency and start/
stop commands.
Nm-R/Ser-C: The control path for the reference frequency is as defined by parameter
Terminal/Keypad, while the serial link is the control path for start/stop
commands.
Nm non-Ser: When Local mode is active, the control path for both reference frequency
and start/stop commands is set by the Terminal/Keypad parameter (al-
though control via the serial link may be asserted if desired); when Remote
mode is active, the serial link is used to select the control path and cannot
be overridden using the SLO bit of Cntl Word 1. (Note that this setting forc-
es the Remote Config parameter to Serial Lnk.)
Similarly, as described on page 87, the following functions may be assigned to the Remote
Config parameter to specify the control path:
TS-C&R: The terminal strip is the control path for both the reference frequency and
start/stop commands.
Kpd-R/TS-C: The terminal strip is the control path for start/stop commands, while the
keypad is the control path for the reference frequency.
TS-R/Kpd-C: The keypad is the control path for start/stop commands, while the terminal
strip is the control path for the reference frequency.
Nm-R/Ser-C: The control path for the reference frequency is as specified by the Termi-
nal/Keypad parameter, while the serial link is the control path for start/stop
commands.
TS-C/Ser-R: The serial link is the control path for the reference frequency, while the ter-
minal strip is the control path for start/stop commands.
Serial Lnk: When Local mode is active, the control path is set by the Terminal/Keypad
parameter (although control via the serial link may be asserted if desired);
when Remote mode is active, the serial link sets the control path and can-
not be overridden using the SLO bit of Cntl Word 1. (This setting forces the
Local Config parameter to Nm non-Ser.)
The WF2 drive provides a serial link to support remote communication. The serial link sup-
ports ASCII or RTU communication utilizing Modbus protocol. Modbus functions 3, 6, and
16 are supported by the WF2 drive.
In addition, DeviceNet, Metasys N2, and Siemens P1 protocols are supported by the WF2
drive. See page 145 for further information on the DeviceNet option. Consult BERGES for
more information on the Siemens P1 and Metasys N2 options.
The communication interface is RS485, and allows up to 247 slaves to be connected to one
master (with repeaters when the number of drops exceeds 31). The pin-out diagram for the
Modbus communication port is shown in Figure 21 on page 52.
The Communication parameter group contains the parameters that govern the baud rate,
watchdog timer, and protocol selection for the serial interface. See page 131 for information
on the parameters in this parameter group.
All addresses from 1 to 247 are allowed for WF2 drives. Address 0 is a broadcast address
understood by all drives; however, no reply is returned for messages sent to this address.
Each parameter is assigned a unique memory address to permit easy reading and config-
uration. Section 7 and 11 list all WF2 parameters and the memory address assigned to
each.
Note that for the standard keypad, by default parameter addresses are not shown. They
may be displayed by setting Show Param # to Enabled (see page 129). For the enhanced
keypad, addresses are always shown.
As explained in Section 6.6 starting on page 69, the serial link may be configured to be the
control path for the reference frequency, for start/stop commands, or for both. This is ac-
complished by setting Bit 0 and/or Bit 1 of parameter Cntl Word 1 to 1. See section 6.6 for
more information.
When either of these bits are set to 1, the SLO (serial link override) function also becomes
available, which is used to temporarily halt serial link control of the drive (see the next sec-
tion for more information on the SLO function).
Once Bit 1 is set to 1, the reference frequency is determined by Bit 4 of parameter Cntl
Word 1. When this bit is set to 0, the value of parameter Ext Freq Ref 1 determines the
reference frequency; when the bit is set to 1, the value of parameter Ext Freq Ref 2 deter-
mines the reference frequency.
You may temporarily halt serial link control by assigning a digital input to perform the SLO
(serial link override) function. See page 110 for information on configuring digital inputs.
When the digital input assigned to the SLO function becomes true, the status of Bit 0 and
Bit 1 of parameter Cntl Word 1 are ignored, serial link control is halted, and the control path
reverts to that specified by parameter Terminal/Keypad.
Note that if serial link is explicitly assigned in either the Local Config or Remote Config
parameter, the SLO function is not available. Should serial link control be lost, the drive will
either fault (if the Comm Timeout parameter is set; see page 132) or will continue running
at the last speed reference received.
7 Parameters
7.1 Introduction
The WF2 drive incorporates a large number of parameters that allow you to configure the
drive to meet the special requirements of your particular application. The parameters are
organized into groups of related functionality, and within the groups the parameters are
identified by a short, descriptive name.
As described in the previous chapter, the parameters may be broadly grouped into two
types: those assigned a value (such as the minimum frequency) and those assigned a func-
tion (such as the type of stop to be performed, either ramp or coast). The manner in which
these two types are displayed is slightly different, as shown in figure 24 on page 57 (for the
standard keypad) and figure 29 on page 65 (for the enhanced keypad).
This chapter describes the available parameters, the groups in which they are located, and
the values or functions that may be assigned to them. Chapter 11 (starting on page 156)
provides a summary of all parameters including their ranges and default values. This chap-
ter also notes the memory address of each parameter, which is useful for serial communi-
cation.
The WF2 drive provides 23 parameter groups, all of which are accessible with either the
standard or enhanced keypad (provided security conditions are met). (Note, however, that
the last group Seq Configure only becomes available when parameter Application in
the Special parameter group is set to Sequencer to make the Sequencer application avail-
able; see section 10 for more information on this application.)
In addition, for the standard keypad, a 24th group is also available. This group contains the
most often needed parameters from the other 23 groups. This 24th group is available as
Level 1 Programming, with the remaining 23 groups are available as Level 2 Programming.
See page 55 for more information on these two levels of programming.
The names of the parameter groups are shown in table 27 on page 75. Note that the order
in which the groups are shown in the table is from the first group displayed to the last, which
corresponds to what is displayed as you scroll through the parameter groups with either
keypad. For the standard keypad, table 28 on page 75 lists the parameters found in the Lev-
el 1 Programming group. Since these parameters are duplicates of those found in the other
23 parameter groups, see the noted page number for the description of the parameter.
This parameter group allows you to configure security for the drive. See page 68 for more
information on security.
If the Set Password parameter is set to a non-zero value, security is enabled and a user
must enter a password to gain entry. The Enter Password parameter is set by the user to
the value of the password, which is then compared to the value in the Set Password pa-
rameter. If they match, access is granted.
If this parameter is set to a non-zero value, security is enabled. A user must enter the value
of this parameter in the Enter Password parameter to program the parameters that are
made available by the Access Level parameter.
The WF2 drive provides two levels of access. This parameter sets which access level is
enabled, which in turn determines which parameter groups may be accessed and adjusted.
The functions that may be assigned to this parameter, and what each signifies, are shown
below:

eters, if the drive is stopped.
You may read all parameters, and configure the non-read-only param-
eters, whether the drive is stopped or running, although some param-
Config Run
eters (such as those for digital inputs) may only be configured when the
drive is stopped.
This parameter group shows information about the WF2 drive including its serial number
and the versions of software installed.
This parameter displays the type of drive. The following values may be displayed for this
parameter:
Range: Default:
This parameter contains the portion of the WF2 model number related to voltage and horse-
power. The number has the format vvhhf, where vv is the code for the input voltage (19 =
115 V AC singlephase; 29 = 230 V AC, single-phase; 20 = 230 V AC, three-phase; 40 = 460
V AC, three-phase; 50 = 575 V AC, three-phase), hh is the horsepower, and f is the frac-
tional part of the horsepower.
For example, 29010 indicates a 230 V AC, single-phase, 1.0 HP model.
This parameter contains a four-digit number that corresponds to the year and week in which
the WF2 drive was manufactured.
This parameter contains a four-digit number that is the remainder of the serial number (pa-
rameter Serial No 1 is the first part of the number; see above).
This parameter shows the version of the Motor Control Processing (MCP) program loaded
in the WF2 drive.
This parameter shows the version of the user interface software loaded in the drive.
This parameter shows the version of the application software loaded in the WF2 drive.
When the temperature of the heatsink (as found in parameter Drive Temp; see page 79)
exceeds the value set in parameter Drive Temp Lvl (see page 119), a warning will be giv-
en. If the temperature exceeds the value set in this parameter (Drive Temp Trip), an over-
temperature fault will occur and the drive will stop.
This parameter shows the type of communication option board attached to the WF2 drive.
The following values may be displayed for this parameter:
This parameter shows whether an option board is attached to the WF2 drive by identifying
the type of option board installed. The following values may be displayed for this parameter:
Range: Default:
This parameter group contains parameters that are concerned with the basic operating val-
ues of the WF2 drive and attached motor.
This parameter contains the frequency output to the motor. It is not modified by slip com-
pensation (parameter Slip Comp; see page 102).
This parameter shows the percentage of maximal load relative to the drives capacity.
This parameter shows the actual temperature of the drives heatsink. Note that an overtem-
perature fault will be generated when the heatsink temperature reaches the value of param-
eter Drive Temp Trip (see page 77). If desired, you may configure a digital output to chan-
ge state when the temperature exceeds the value of parameter Drive Temp Lvl which,
in effect, allows you to configure a warning of an impending overtemperature fault.
This parameter shows the estimated temperature of the motor as a percentage of the the-
oretical thermal capacity of the motor. The estimated temperature and the thermal capacity
are derived from a thermal model that utilizes the parameter values found in the Motor Set-
up Group (see page 103) and on the estimated load on the motor.
This parameter shows the estimated torque being supplied to the motor as a percentage of
the nominal motor torque. The estimation is based on the parameter values found in the
Motor Setup Group (see page 103) and on the estimated load on the motor.
This parameter shows the estimated torque being supplied to the motor in Newton meters
(Nm), with precision equal to 0.1 Nm. The estimation is based on the parameter values
found in the Motor Setup Group (see page 103) and on the estimated load on the motor.
This parameter shows the power being delivered to the motor, which is derived from the
parameter values of the Motor Setup group and the estimated load on the motor.
This parameter shows the speed reference that is currently in use. The source for the set-
ting of the speed reference may be from the keypad, the terminal strip, or the serial link de-
pending on the configuration of parameters Terminal/Keypad (see page 85) and Local/
Remote (see page 86).
This parameter contains the estimated current speed of the motor in revolutions per minute.
The estimation is based on the parameter values found in the Motor Setup Group (see page
103) and on the estimated load on the motor.
This parameter shows the active source for Start/Stop control. It is highly dynamic, and
changes as online conditions change. If you read this parameter via the serial link, 0 indi-
cates the terminal strip; 1 indicates the keypad; and 2 indicates the serial link.
Range: Default:

ly dynamic, and changes as online conditions change. If you read this parameter via the
serial link, 0 indicates the terminal strip; 1 indicates the keypad; and 2 indicates the serial
link.
Range: Default:
These parameters work together to display the number of days that the WF2 drive has been
under power. When this parameter is read from a keypad, the display will show the number
of days properly formatted. However, when the parameter is read via serial communication,
you must also read parameter Drv Life Format to properly format the value. To format the
value, divide the value shown for parameter Drive Lifetime by:
1 if parameter Drv Life Format is 50;
10 if parameter Drv Life Format is 51; or
100 if parameter Drv Life Format is 52.
The value of the Drive Lifetime parameter cannot be reset.
Range: 065535 Drive Lifetime Default:
Range: 50, 51 or 52 Drv Life Format Default:
These parameters work together to display the number of hours that the WF2 drive has
been operating. When this parameter is read from a keypad, the display will show the
number of hours properly formatted. However, when the parameter is read via serial com-
munication, you must also read parameter Runtime Format to properly format the value.
To format the value, divide the value shown for parameter Elapsed Runtime by:
1 if parameter Runtime Format is 50;
10 if parameter Runtime Format is 51; or
100 if parameter Runtime Format is 52.
The Elapsed Runtime parameters value may be reset by setting parameter Program
Number to 10.
Range: 065535 Elapsed Runtime Default:
Range: 50, 51 or 52 Runtime Format Default:
These parameters work together to display the amount of power that the WF2 drive has
consumed over its lifetime. When this parameter is read from a keypad, the display will
show the amount of power consumed properly formatted. However, when the parameter is
read via serial communication, you must also read parameter MWh Life Format to properly
format the value. To format the value, divide the value shown for parameter MWh Lifetime
by:
10 if parameter MWh Life Format is 51;
100 if parameter MWh Life Format is 52; or
1000 if parameter MWh Life Format is 53.
The value of the MWh Lifetime parameter cannot be reset.
Range: 065535 MWh Lifetime Default:
Range: 51, 52, or 53 MWh Life Format Default:
These parameters work together to display the amount of power that the WF2 drive has
consumed since parameter Elapsed MWh was reset. When this parameter is read from a
keypad, the display will show the amount of power consumed properly formatted. However,
when the parameter is read via serial communication, you must also read parameter MWh
Format to properly format the value. To format the value, divide the value shown for pa-
rameter Elapsed MWh by:
10 if parameter MWh Format is 51;
100 if parameter MWh Format is 52; or
1000 if parameter MWh Format is 53.
The Elapsed MWh parameters value may be reset by setting parameter Program
Number to 20.
Range: 065535 Elapsed MWh Default:
Range: 51, 52, or 53 MWh Format Default:
This parameter group provides status information about the various inputs to the drive.
These eleven parameters show the status of the ten digital inputs and also the status of the
enable circuit (the circuit connected to the EN terminal).
This parameter contains a value representing the measured input signal at the A11 (analog
input 1) terminal as a percentage of the maximum input signal. For example, if A11 was
configured to range from 0 to 10 V DC and the measured voltage was 2 V, then this param-
eter would show 20% (2/10).
This parameter contains a value representing the measured input signal at the A21 (analog
input 2) terminal as a percentage of the maximum input signal. For example, if A21 was
configured to range from 0 to 20 mA DC and the measured current was 15 mA, then this
parameter would show a value of 75% (15/20).
These five parameters show the status of the three digital outputs and also the status of the
two output relays.
This parameter contains a value representing the measured voltage at the A0 (analog out-
put 1) terminal as a percentage of the maximum output voltage. For example, if this param-
eter showed 50%, then the voltage being output at A0 would be 5 V DC (50% of 10 V DC,
the maximum value).
This parameter contains a value representing the measured current at the A1 (analog out-
put 2) terminal as a percentage of the maximum output current. For example, if this param-
eter showed 25%, then the process output current at A1 would be 5 mA DC (if the current
range was 0 to 20 mA DC) or 8 mA DC (if the current range was 4 to 20 mA DC). (The cur-
rent range is selected with parameter AQ2 Output Type; see page 121.)
These parameters contain a value representing the measured input signal at the A, B, or C
terminal of the Analog Input/Output Option Board as a percentage of the maximum input
signal. For example, if terminal AINC was configured to range from 0 to 20 mA DC and the
measured current was 5 mA, then this parameter would show a value of 25% (5/20).
These parameters contain a value representing the measured voltage at the A, B, or C ter-
minal of the Analog Input/Output Option Board as a percentage of the maximum output volt-
age. For example, if this parameter showed 70%, then the voltage being output at terminal
AQB would be 7 V DC (70% of 10 V DC, the maximum value).
These parameters show the status of the two output relays found on the Analog Input/Out-
put Option Board.
This parameter group contains parameters that configure how the drive is controlled.
This parameter allows you to select whether 2-wire or 3-wire control will be used. See page
40 for more information on 2-wire and 3-wire control including sample connection diagrams.
Note that if 3-wire control is selected, digital input D2 is forced to act as a Stop input; it can-
not be configured to perform another function. (See page 110 for more information on con-
figuring the functionality of D2.) The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
2-Wire 2-wire control is utilized.
3-Wire 3-wire control is utilized.
This parameter allows you to select whether the drive will automatically start when line pow-
er is applied (if a Run command is active from the terminal strip). The following functions
may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function

so, how the direction is controlled. The following functions may be assigned to this param-
eter:
Display Function
The drive cannot operate in Reverse; the REV key on the keypad is
Non-revers
disabled.
The drive may operate in Reverse, but only via digital inputs. One dig-
For/Rev DI ital input initiates Run, and a second digital input selects the direction.
See page 41 for more information.
The drive may operate in Reverse whether commanded from the key-
pad or via digital inputs. One digital input initiates Run Forward, and a
Run FwdRev
second digital input initiates Run Reverse. See page 41 for more infor-
mation.
This parameter allows you to configure whether reference speed (Reference) and control
functions (Control) come from the keypad, inputs on the terminal strip, or a combination of
the two. Settings are also provided for switching between the two control paths. See page
69 for information on configuring control paths by using this parameter. The following func-
tions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Keypad Control & Reference:
The keypad is the source for both the reference speed (by the up and
Kypd-C & R
down keys) and control inputs (by the FWD, REV [if enabled], and
STOP keys).
Terminal Strip Control & Reference:
TS-C & R Inputs from the terminal strip set the reference speed and control op-
eration.
Terminal Strip Control & Keypad Reference:
TS-C/KP-R The reference speed is set from the keypad and operation is controlled
by digital inputs of the terminal strip.
Keypad Control & Terminal Strip Reference:
KP-C/TS-R The reference speed is set by inputs from the terminal strip, while the
keys on the keypad control drive operation.
Terminal Strip / Keypad Switching by DI:
T/K by DI A digital input selects whether the keypad or the terminal strip is the
source for control and the reference speed.
Terminal Strip / Keypad Switching by Enhance Keypad FKey:
Transfer of control and reference from the terminal strip to the keypad
T/K by Fkey is accomplished by pressing the enhanced keypad function key (MON/
F1, OPR/F2, PAR/F3, or DIR/F4) configured for this function; see page
129.
Display Function
Terminal Strip / Keypad Switching by Serial Link:
Serial communication is used to set Bit 11 of parameter Cntl Word 1
T/K SerLnk
(see page 133) to 0 or 1, with 0 selecting the keypad as the control path
and 1 selecting the terminal strip as the control path.
This parameter determines whether Local and Remote modes will be active and how swit-
ching between the two modes is accomplished. See page 70 for information on how Local
and Remote modes may be used to determine control paths.
Display Function
Local and Remote modes are not used (parameters Terminal/Keypad
None
and Cntl Word 1 determine the control path).
L/R by DI A digital input selects between Local and Remote modes.
Transfer of control between Local and Remote modes is accomplished
L/R by Fkey by pressing the enhanced keypad function key (MON/F1, OPR/F2,
PAR/F3, or DIR/F4) configured for this function; see page 129.

The keypad is the source for both the reference speed (by the up and
Keypd-C&R
down keys) and control functions (by the FWD, REV [if enabled], and
STOP keys).
Serial Link Control and Reference:
Commands sent via serial communication initiate control functions and
Ser-C & R
set the reference speed. Since the serial link is explicitly configured as
the control path, the SLO (serial link override) function is not available.
Serial Link Control and Keypad Reference:
Ser-C/Nm-R The up and down arrow keys on the keypad set the reference speed,
while the control functions are commanded from the serial link.
Display Function
Keypad or Serial Link Control and Reference:
The keypad is the source for control functions and the reference
speed.
However, by setting bits 0 or 1 of Cntl Word 1 to 1, the control path
Nm-non ser
may be switched to the serial link. The SLO function is also available
for overriding serial link control.
Note that if this setting is selected, the Remote Config parameter is
automatically set to Serial Lnk.

Commands sent via serial communication initiate control functions and
Serial Lnk set the reference speed.
Note that if this value is selected, the Local Config parameter is set to
Nm - non ser.
This parameter sets whether the catch on the fly feature is enabled. When it is enabled,
a Run command will cause the drive to match its output to the speed of a freewheeling load
and then begin running. When the feature is disabled, a Run command causes the drive to
start from zero speed. The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled The drive will not perform a catch on the fly.
Enabled The drive will perform a catch on the fly.
This parameter sets the type of stop that occurs when the drive is running under terminal
strip control and the STOP key on the keypad is pressed. The following functions may be
assigned to this parameter:

drive as well as for jogging operations.
This parameter sets the minimum frequency that may be output to the motor. Note that the
resolution is 1 Hz. Also note that if the value of this parameter is changed, the value of pa-
rameters A1 Span and A2 Span will be affected as well. See pages 114 and 115 for more
information on these parameters.
This parameter sets the maximum frequency that may be output to the motor. Note that the
resolution is 1 Hz. Also note that if the value of this parameter is changed, the value of pa-
rameters A1 Span and A2 Span will be affected as well. See pages 114 and 115 for more
information on these parameters.
This parameter configures the reference speed for the drive. The reference speed results
from inputs on the analog input terminals (A11/A12 and A21) and how parameters Ref1
Config, Ref2 Config, and Ref3 Config are set; see page 90 for more information about
these three parameters.

The WF2 drive supports a variety of configurations for EMOP operation. The configurations
are based on whether the digital inputs on the terminal strip may be used to change the
EMOP reference speed or whether the Up and Down Arrow keys on the digital keypad may
also be used to change the EMOP reference speed. To use a digital input, configure two
digital inputs using the parameters in the Digital Inputs Group (see page 110).
In addition to configuring what controls the EMOP reference speed, you may configure
whether the reference speed is reset when a Stop or a power cycle occurs, or only when a
power cycle occurs, or does not reset. If the reference speed is reset, the reference speed
upon a re-start is the minimum frequency. The following functions may be assigned to this
parameter:
Display Function
None EMOP is not utilized.
Digital inputs are used to change EMOP reference speed, and the
TS no Mem
EMOP reference speed is lost upon Stop or a power-cycle.
Digital inputs are used to change EMOP reference speed, and the ref-
TS w/ Mem
erence speed is retained upon Stop but not when power is cycled.
Digital inputs are used to change EMOP reference speed, and the ref-
TS w/ MemP
erence speed is retained through a Stop or when power is cycled.
Same as TS no Mem except the keypad also may be used to change
T/K no Mem
the EMOP reference speed.
Same as TS w/ Mem except the keypad also may be used to change
T/K w/ Mem
the EMOP reference speed.
Same as TS w/ MemP except the keypad also may be used to change
T/K MemP
the EMOP reference speed.
When parameter Main Speed Ref or Jog Ref Config is set to Spd-Fixed, this parameter
specifies the speed.
When Main Speed Ref is set to S-R1+k*R2, this parameter sets the value of k, which is the
scale factor by which reference 2 is multiplied before being added to reference 1.
This parameter group provides access to the parameters concerned with establishing the
various acceleration and deceleration ramps of the drive. (The drive supports three ramps
plus a jogging ramp.) Parameters are also available to set the shape of the ramps.
This parameter sets the length of time to accelerate from 0 Hz to the maximum frequency
(parameter Maximum Freq) for the primary ramp.
This parameter sets the length of time to decelerate from the maximum frequency (param-
eter Maximum Freq) to 0 Hz for the primary ramp.
This parameter sets the length of time to accelerate from 0 Hz to the maximum frequency
(parameter Maximum Freq) for Alternate Ramp 1.
This parameter sets the length of time to decelerate from the maximum frequency (param-
eter Maximum Freq) to 0 Hz for Alternate Ramp 1.
This parameter sets the length of time to accelerate from 0 Hz to the maximum frequency
(parameter Maximum Freq) for Alternate Ramp 2.
This parameter sets the length of time to decelerate from the maximum frequency (param-
eter Maximum Freq) to 0 Hz for Alternate Ramp 2.
This parameter sets the length of time for acceleration (0 Hz to the EMOP reference speed)
and deceleration (EMOP reference speed to 0 Hz) when EMOP is active.
This parameter selects when Alternate Ramp 1 (AR1) is invoked. Parameters Accel Time
2 and Decel Time 2 (see page 92 for information on these parameters) configure the slope
of the ramp, while AR1 Ramp Type determines the shape of the ramp (see page 94). The
following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
None AR1 is not available.
A digital input is used to select AR1. While the input is true, AR1 is in
AR1 on DI
use.
When the drive reaches a preset frequency, AR1 is invoked and re-
mains in effect until the frequency drops below the threshold. The fre-
AR1 by Frq
quency is set by parameter AR1 Switch Freq; see page 95 for more
information.
When a Start command occurs, AR1 is invoked and remains in effect
until the reference speed is reached. Once an At Speed condition is at-
AR1-Strt tained, the main ramp is used for reference changes. When a Stop
command occurs, AR1 is invoked and remains in effect until zero
speed is reached.
When the drive begins operation in Reverse, AR1 is invoked and re-
AR1-Fwd/Rv
mains in effect until the direction changes.
This parameter selects when Alternate Ramp 2 (AR2) is invoked. Parameters Accel Time
3 and Decel Time 3 (see page 92 for information on these parameters) configure the slope
of the ramp, while AR2 Ramp Type determines the shape of the ramp (see below). The
following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
None AR2 is not available.
A digital input is used to select AR2. While the input is true, AR2 is in
AR2 on DI
use.
When the drive reaches a preset frequency, AR2 is invoked and re-
mains in effect until the frequency drops below the threshold. The fre-
AR2 by Frq
quency is set by parameter AR2 Switch Freq; see page 95 for more
information.
When a Start command occurs, AR2 is invoked and remains in effect
until the reference speed is reached. Once an At Speed condition is at-
AR2-Strt tained, the main ramp is used for reference changes. When a Stop
command occurs, AR2 is invoked and remains in effect until zero
speed is reached.
Display Function
When the drive begins operation in Reverse, AR2 is invoked and re-
AR2-Fwd/Rv
mains in effect until the direction changes.
This parameter determines the shape of the primary ramp determined by parameters Accel
Time 1 and Decel Time 1. The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Linear The shape of the ramp is a straight line.
The shape of the ramp is curved at the beginning and end, with the
S-Curve middle portion linear. The degree of curvature is set by parameter
Main S-Rounding (see the next page).
If parameter Main Ramp Type is set to S-Curve, this parameter sets the amount of curva-
ture at either end of the ramp. A value of 0 s produces a linear curve, while a value of 10 s
produces a maximally rounded S-shaped curve.
This parameter determines the shape of Alternate Ramp 1 (AR1). The following functions
may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Linear The shape of the ramp is a straight line.
The shape of the ramp is curved at the beginning and end, with the
S-Curve middle portion linear. The degree of curvature is set by parameter AR1
S-Rounding (see below).
If parameter AR1 Ramp Type is set to S-Curve, this parameter determines the amount of
curvature at either end of the ramp. A value of 0 s produces a linear curve, while a value of
10 s produces a maximally rounded S-shaped curve.
This parameter sets the frequency reference during acceleration and deceleration when the
AR1 ramp is active. Note that it is accurate to the hundredths place (0.01), and that if set to
0.00 the reference frequency defaults to the value of parameter Maximum Freq.
This parameter determines the shape of Alternate Ramp 2 (AR2). The following functions
may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Linear The shape of the ramp is a straight line.
The shape of the ramp is curved at the beginning and end, with the
S-Curve middle portion linear. The degree of curvature is set by parameter AR2
S-Rounding (see below).
If parameter AR2 Ramp Type is set to S-Curve, this parameter determines the amount of
curvature at either end of the ramp. A value of 0 s produces a linear curve, while a value of
10 s produces a maximally rounded S-shaped curve.
This parameter sets the frequency reference during acceleration and deceleration when the
AR2 ramp is active. Note that it is accurate to the hundredths place (0.01), and that if set to
0.00 the reference frequency defaults to the value of parameter Maximum Freq.
This parameter sets the frequency reference range during which the acceleration or decel-
eration time is active. For example, if this parameter is set to 30 Hz and the acceleration
time is set to 10 s, then the acceleration ramp will have the slope of a 30 Hz increase in 10 s.
Note that it is accurate to the hundredths place (0.01), and that if set to 0.00, the reference
frequency range is the difference between parameter Maximum Freq and parameter Min-
imum Freq. For example, if the minimum frequency was 20 Hz and the maximum was 60
Hz, then the acceleration and deceleration times correspond to the lengths of time to accel-
erate or decelerate by 40 Hz (60 minus 20 Hz).
For most applications, it is recommended that this parameter be left at its default value of
0.00 Hz.
This parameter group provides access to the parameters used to configure the preset ref-
erence speeds for the drive. A preset speed is selected via a combination of digital inputs
or by setting the bits of the control word appropriately (see page 45 for more information).
This parameter sets the first (of seven) preset speed. The speed is selected by a combina-
tion of digital inputs or settings of bits 5, 6, and 7 in parameter Cntl Word 1; see page 45
for a discussion of preset speeds and how each is selected.
This parameter sets the second (of seven) preset speed. The speed is selected by a com-
bination of digital inputs or settings of bits 5, 6, and 7 in parameter Cntl Word 1; see page
45 for a discussion of preset speeds and how each is selected.
This parameter sets the third (of seven) preset speed. The speed is selected by a combi-
nation of digital inputs or settings of bits 5, 6, and 7 in parameter Cntl Word 1; see page 45
for a discussion of preset speeds and how each is selected.
This parameter sets the fourth (of seven) preset speed. The speed is selected by a combi-
nation of digital inputs or settings of bits 5, 6, and 7 in parameter Cntl Word 1; see page 45
for a discussion of preset speeds and how each is selected.
This parameter sets the fifth (of seven) preset speed. The speed is selected by a combina-
tion of digital inputs or settings of bits 5, 6, and 7 in parameter Cntl Word 1; see page 45
for a discussion of preset speeds and how each is selected.
This parameter sets the sixth (of seven) preset speed. The speed is selected by a combi-
nation of digital inputs or settings of bits 5, 6, and 7 in parameter Cntl Word 1; see page 45
for a discussion of preset speeds and how each is selected.
This parameter sets the seventh (last) preset speed. The speed is selected by a combina-
tion of digital inputs or settings of bits 5, 6, and 7 in parameter Cntl Word 1; see page 45
for a discussion of preset speeds and how each is selected.
This group contains parameters that allow you to configure up to five frequency bands that
are skipped during drive operation. The WF2 drive will not establish a steady-state at any
frequency within a skip band; instead, it will ramp through the band.
This parameter sets the lower frequency of the first frequency band to be skipped.
This parameter sets the upper frequency of the first frequency band to be skipped.
This parameter sets the lower frequency of the second frequency band to be skipped.
This parameter establishes the upper frequency of the second frequency band to be
skipped.
This parameter establishes the lower frequency of the third frequency band to be skipped.
This parameter establishes the upper frequency of the third frequency band to be skipped.
This parameter establishes the lower frequency value of the fourth frequency band to be
skipped.
This parameter establishes the upper frequency value of the fourth frequency band to be
skipped.
This parameter establishes the lower frequency value of the fifth frequency band to be
skipped.
This parameter establishes the upper frequency value of the fifth frequency band to be
skipped.
This group contains parameters that allow you to configure the torque limits for the drive.
Limits may be set for both forward and reverse operation as well as for pulling a load (mo-
toring) or being pulled by a load (regenerative).
For some applications, it is of benefit to limit the current output of the drive.This parameter
allows you to limit the current output by configuring the maximum motor current from the
drive expressed as a percentage of nominal current rating.
The WF2 drive provides a Torque Limit feature. When this feature is enabled, the drive's
frequency is automatically reduced when operating in motoring mode to keep the measured
torque within limits. When operating in regenerative mode, the output frequency may be au-
tomatically increased for the same reason.
Note that in addition to the torque limit parameters that activate the Torque Limit mode, two
additional torque limits are available. These are Torque Level 1 and Torque Level 2 (see
page 119), and you may configure a digital output to become true when either of these limits
is exceeded (see page 117 for information on the parameters that configure the digital out-
puts).
This parameter (Trq Limit Type) establishes how the feature will be enabled. The following
functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled Torque limiting will not be used.
When the measured torque exceeds the limit set by either Trq Lim Mtr
Fwd, Trq Lim Reg Fwd, Trq Lim Mtr Rev, or Trq Lim Reg Rev (de-
Fixed Lvls
pending on what the motor and drive are doing), torque limiting is ena-
bled. See page 99 for a description of these parameters.
Torque limiting is enabled when a digital input is true. See page 98 for
By DI
information on configuring a digital input to limit torque.
The analog input identified in parameter Trq Lim AI (see page 100) is
monitored and as it changes, so does the value of each of the four
torque limits named for Fixed Lvls. The values of the limits are found
Follow AI by multiplying the percentage of full-scale being input on the analog in-
put by the configured torque limits. For example, if Trq Lim Mtr Fwd is
set to 150% and A2 is at half-scale, then the actual torque limit when
motoring forward is 75%.
When the drives output frequency is greater than the value set by Trq
On Freq
Lim Freq (see page 100), torque limiting is enabled.
This parameter sets the torque limiting point when the drive is in motoring mode in the For-
ward direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the torque load.
This parameter sets the torque limiting point when the drive is in regenerative mode in the
Forward direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the torque load.
This parameter sets the torque limiting point when the drive is in motoring mode in the Re-
verse direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the torque load.
This parameter sets the torque limiting point when the drive is in regenerative mode in the
Reverse direction. The limit is expressed as a percentage of the torque load.
When parameter Trq Limit Type is set to On Freq, the Torque Limit feature will activate
when a certain frequency threshold is exceeded. This parameter, Trq Lim Freq, sets the
threshold frequency.
When parameter Trq Limit Type is set to Follow AI, an analog input is used to set the
torque limits. This parameter, Trq Lim AI, sets which analog input will be used. The follow-
ing values may be assigned to this parameter.
Display Function
AI #1 Analog input 1 of the WF2 drive.
AI #2 Analog input 2 of the WF2 drive.
AI #A Analog input A of the Analog Input/Output Option Board.
AI #B Analog input B of the Analog Input/Output Option Board.
AI #C Analog input C of the Analog Input/Output Option Board.
This parameter sets the limit for the amount of time that the drive may continue to run in
regenerative current limit after a Stop command is issued. If the configured time duration
expires and the drive is not yet at zero speed, Fault 59 (Regen Timeout) occurs and the
drive coasts to a stop.
This group contains parameters that allow you to configure the SVC and V/Hz algorithms
used in the drive. Figure 30 on page 101 shows how the parameters of this group determine
a V/Hz curve.
Voltage
This parameter selects the control algorithms used by the WF2 drive. The following func-
tions may be assigned to this parameter (note that all SVC control modes require optimum
setup of motor parameters; see section 7.14 [Motor Setup Group] on page 103 for more
information):
Display Function
Sensorless vector control (SVC), constant torque characteristic. This
CT - SVC setting forces Set V-Boost and Slip Comp parameters to Automatic,
and they cannot be set to another function.
Variable torque with SVC-type quadratic voltage characteristic. This
VT - SVC setting forces Set V-Boost and Slip Comp parameters to Automatic,
and they cannot be set to another function.
Constant torque with SVC-type two-piece voltage characteristic. This
setting forces Set V-Boost and Slip Comp parameters to Automatic.
CT - SVC 2pc However, parameter V-Boost Config may be set to provide additional
starting torque, with parameters Boost Taper Frq and Boost Taper
Vlt defining the point on the theoretical curve where boost ceases.
Constant torque with V/Hz control and linear voltage characteristic. Pa-
rameter Set V-Boost is set to None, but may be changed to Automatic
CT - V/Hz
(with boost ceasing at the field weakening point). Parameter Slip Comp
is set to None, but may be changed to Automatic.
Variable torque with V/Hz control and quadratic voltage characteristic.
Parameter Set V-Boost is set to Automatic, but may be changed to
VT - V/Hz
None (with boost ceasing at the field weakening point). Parameter Slip
Comp is set to None, but may be changed to Automatic.
Constant torque with V/Hz linear two-piece voltage characteristic. Pa-
rameter Set V-Boost is set to Automatic, but it may be changed to
CT - V/Hz 2pc None (with parameters Boost Taper Frq and Boost Taper Vlt defin-
ing the point on the theoretical curve where boost ceases). Parameter
Slip Comp is set to None, but may be changed to Automatic.
This parameter configures the switching (or carrier) frequency for the drive. Lower frequen-
cies produce better torque, but produce more audible noise from the motor. Higher switch-
ing frequencies produce less audible noise, but cause more heating in the drive and motor.
The factory default setting for a particular model is the frequency rated to produce continu-
ous full-load current within rated temperatures.
This parameter allows you to enable or disable the auto-carrier feature. When enabled, the
setting of the Carrier Freq parameter is ignored. Instead, the drive uses the optimum
switching frequency, which is the highest frequency for the load that does not cause over-
heating.
Display Function
Disabled Function auto-carrier is disabled.
Enabled Function auto-carrier is enabled.
This parameter sets the amount of slip compensation, which may provide more constant
motor speed under changing load conditions. The following functions may be assigned to
this parameter:
Display Function
None Slip compensation is not utilized.
The drive calculates how much slip compensation is needed depend-
Automatic
ing on the load and motor speed.
This parameter sets the amount of boost (expressed as a percentage of nominal motor volt-
age) to be applied at zero frequency. The amount configured then tapers linearly as fre-
quency increases, reaching zero at the point specified by parameters Boost Taper Frq and
Boost Taper Vlt.
The default values are model dependent:
This parameter determines whether a voltage boost is applied. Voltage boost is the amount
of voltage added at zero frequency (expressed as a percentage of nominal motor voltage),
which is the start of the V/Hz curve. The boost tapers linearly to zero at the point set in pa-
rameters Boost Taper Frq and Boost Taper Vlt (see below):
Display Function
None No voltage boost.
Automatic The WF2 drive calculates the amount of boost required.
This parameter works with the Set V-Boost parameter. When voltage boost is applied at
the start of the V/Hz curve, the amount of boost tapers linearly and reaches zero at the point
established by the frequency set in this parameter and the voltage set in parameter Boost
Taper Vlt (see below).
This parameter works with the Set V-Boost parameter. When voltage boost is applied at
the start of the V/Hz curve, the amount of boost tapers linearly and reaches zero at the point
established by the voltage set in this parameter and the frequency set in parameter Boost
Taper Frq (see above).
This group contains parameters that allow you to configure aspects of the motor attached
to the WF2 drive such as nominal motor current and voltage.
This parameter configures the nominal motor current, and is obtained from the nameplate
on the attached motor.
NOTE: The proper setting of these values greatly influence the proper operation of the drive
when in the SVC operating mode as well as the accuracy of overload protection.
This parameter configures the voltage delivered to the motor terminals by the drive at the
field weakening point.
NOTE: The proper setting of these values greatly influence the proper operation of the drive
when in the SVC operating mode as well as the accuracy of overload protection.
This parameter sets the nominal motor frequency, as obtained from the motors nameplate,
and also defines the frequency at the field weakening point.
NOTE: The proper setting of these values greatly influence the proper operation of the drive
when in the SVC operating mode as well as the accuracy of overload protection.
This parameter sets the nominal motor speed in revolutions per minute, and is obtained
from the nameplate of the motor attached to the drive. It is important that this be entered
accurately as it is used in sensorless vector control (SVC) calculations and in slip compen-
sation.
For 50 Hz mains, the default is 1450 rpm. For 60 Hz mains, the default is 1760 rpm.
NOTE: The proper setting of these values greatly influence the proper operation of the drive
when in the SVC operating mode as well as the accuracy of overload protection.
This parameter injects a supplemental de-rating factor into the overload calibration of the
drive / motor combination. The value for this parameter should be left at its default value
except when you wish to compensate for sensitive powertrain components (such as plastic
chain) or where sensitive media may be stretched in an overload condition.
This parameter sets the amount of time that the measured motor current may exceed by
150% the threshold set by parameter Mtr Ovld Scale before an overload trip occurs.
NOTE: If the value of this parameter is set to 0.0 s, this function is disabled. If this parameter
is set to a value of 0.1 s, a shear-pin function will be configured. When the calculated over-
load value exceeds that set in the Mtr Ovld Scale parameter, a fault will immediately occur
and the drive will stop.
This parameter represents the motor line-to-line stator resistance, and should only be mod-
ified by advanced users. The default value for this parameter is calculated by the WF2 drive
by using the DC pulse that occurs before a start.
To modify this parameter, you must first disable the DC Puls-Start start by setting param-
eter DC Pulse-Start to None (see below). Then, you may set the value of parameter Motor
RS to the desired value. If the DC pulse at start is not disabled, any value set for parameter
Motor RS will be overwritten when the WF2 measures a new value at the next start.
This parameter selects whether a DC pulse will be applied before starting. This pulse is
used to determine motor parameters before beginning operation. The amount of current to
be pulsed is set by parameter DC Inj Cur Lvl (see page 108), and the duration of the pulse
is set by parameter DC Pulse-Time (see below).
Display Function
None No DC pulse before Start.
DC at Strt DC pulse before Start.
If parameter DC Puls-Start is enabled (see above), this parameter configures the duration
of the pulse at start-up. (Note that motor RS is not calculated if the value of this parameter
is less than 1 s.)
This parameter provides a compensating factor to enable the drive to more accurately per-
form sensorless vector control (SVC) at low speeds.
NOTE: The proper setting of these values greatly influence the proper operation of the drive
when in the SVC operating mode as well as the accuracy of overload protection.
This parameter configures what type of motor is attached to the WF2 drive. This is used for
modeling thermal performance, which determines when the drive will trip due to motor over-
loading. The following data codes may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
No Thermal Prot The motor overload trip is disabled.
Std Induction The attached motor is a standard induction (self-cooled) motor.
Blower Cooled The attached motor uses a constant-speed fan for forced cooling.
This parameter configures the supply voltage. Only the following values may be assigned
to this parameter (the value in parentheses is the data code for serial communication):
[1] This setting is only available with units having MCP software revisions greater than 1.59.
This parameter group contains parameters that are used to configure the various braking
options for the drive.
The drive provides an internal dynamic brake (DB) to assist in stopping. If desired, a TB
Woods WDB-type external brake may be connected to the B/B+ terminals (or B/DB1 ter-
minals, depending on model) on the power board (see page 31 for more information). The
following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled Neither an internal dynamic brake or external device is used.
Int DB Res The internal dynamic brake is enabled.
A TB Woods WDB-type external braking kit is attached to the WF2
Ext DB WDB drive for additional braking capacity; see page 145 for more informa-
tion.
An external resistor is used for additional braking capacity. The char-
acteristics of the external resistor are specified in the following three
Ext DB Res
parameters. See page 34 for a discussion of dynamic braking for the
WF2 drive and how to add an external resistor to the drive.
These parameters establish the value of the external resistor used to augment braking ca-
pacity, its thermal resistance, and its thermal capacitance, respectively.
Note that the value for DB Res Value is the actual resistance of the resistor, displayed to
the nearest 0.1 resolution.
Also note that the default Cth values are for software versions 1.63 and greater; earlier soft-
ware versions (1.591.62) have Cth values that are twice as large. (This manual is intended
for MCP revision 2.86 and greater).
The default values for these parameters varies by model as shown in the table below:
DC injection braking may be used to stop the motor more quickly than is possible by either
a ramp-to-stop or a coast-to-stop. The WF2 drive allows DC braking to be initiated either
when a digital input assigned to DC braking becomes true, or when bit 12 of parameter Cntl
Word 1 is set to 1, or when a specified frequency is reached, or when any of these occur.
When using a digital input for DC braking, one of the DI parameters (see page 110) must
be used to configure the selected digital input for DC braking. The amount of braking force
is set by parameter DC Inj Cur Lvl. The length of time that the braking force is applied is
determined by the time that the selected digital input is active.
The second type of DC injection braking supported by the WF2 drive is where DC braking
occurs at a specified frequency.
With this type of braking, as the drive slows down after a Stop command, DC braking begins
when the frequency reaches the value specified in DC Inj Freq. (If the frequency at the time
of a Stop command is less than that of DC Inj Freq, DC braking begins immediately.) The
braking continues for the time period specified by parameter DC Inj Time-Frq. Once the
time period elapses, the drive may be re-started.
NOTE: If DC DC Inj Time-Frq is set to zero, braking is applied until the enable input, DI
EN, is de-activated. To re-start, the enable input must be restored to its active condition and
then the Run command re-issued.)
The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
None DC injection braking is not utilized.
At the frequency specified by parameter DC Inj Freq, DC braking is in-
DCI on Frq
itiated.
DC braking occurs when the digital input configured for DC braking is
DCI by DI
true or pulsed.
Either the specified frequency or a digital input initiates DC braking,
DCI-DI/Frq
with digital input taking precedence.
This parameter configures the amount of DC current to be injected into the motor windings,
which acts as a braking force. The amount of current is expressed as a percentage of nom-
inal motor current. The braking force may be applied when starting or stopping.
For starting, see parameter DC Puls-Start on page 105. For stopping, see parameter DC
Inj Config on page 108.
If parameter Stop Mode is set to DCI to Stp (see page 84), direct current will be applied to
the motor. This parameter, DC Inj Time-Stp, determines how long the direct current will be
applied, which varies with the speed of the motor. The relationship between the speed of
the motor and the length of time that direct current is applied is linear until the output fre-
quency is 10% or less of the maximum frequency. At that point, the length of time that direct
current is applied to the motor is always 20% of the setting of DC Inj Time-Stp.
For example, if DC Inj Time-Stp is set to 20 s and the drive is running at maximum frequen-
cy, direct current will be applied for the entire 20 s when a Stop command occurs. If the
drive was only running at half the maximum frequency, direct current would be applied for
only one-half of the time specified by DC Inj Time-Stp (in this example, 10 s). Finally, if the
drive was running at one-tenth of the maximum frequency, direct current would be applied
for only 2 seconds (10% of 20 s).
NOTE: If this parameter is set to zero, direct current will be applied until the enable input,
DI EN, is de-activated. To re-start, the enable input must be restored to its active condition
and then the Run command re-issued.)
This parameter is independent of the DC Inj Config parameter and the other parameters
associated with that parameter. In other words, the time period configured by this parame-
ter, DC Inj Time-Stp, does not determine how long DC injection braking will be active.
When DC injection braking is controlled by a digital input or by setting bit 12 of Cntl Word
1, the braking continues as long as the digital input or bit is true; when it is controlled by
frequency, it continues for the length of time set by parameter DC Inj Time-Frq.
If parameter DC Inj Config is set to DCI on Frq or DCI-DI/Frq, a frequency threshold is used
for DC braking. This parameter sets the value of the frequency threshold. See parameter
DC Inj Config on page 108 for more information.
If parameter DC Inj Config is set to DCI on Frq or DCI-DI/Frq, a frequency threshold is used
for DC braking. Once the threshold is crossed, DC braking is initiated and continues for the
amount of time specified by this parameter, DC Inj Time-Frq.
NOTE: If this parameter is set to zero, braking is applied until the enable input, DI EN, is
de-activated. To re-start, the enable input must be restored to its active condition and then
the Run command re-issued.)
See parameter DC Inj Config on page 108 for more information.
This group contains parameters that allow you to configure the functions of the digital inputs
(control terminal group TB4; see figure 6 on page 36).
This parameter determines whether high input is regarded as true or low input is regarded
as true. A high input is input voltage between 10 and 24 V DC; a low input is voltage
between 0 and 3 V DC. Input voltage cannot exceed 40 V DC.
Note that the EN (Enable) terminal on the TB4 terminal group is not effected by the setting
of this parameter. A high input to the EN terminal is always regarded as true. Thus, if the
input to the terminal goes low, the drive will not operate even if pull-down logic is config-
ured. The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Active Low Low input is true (pull-down logic).
Active Hgh High input is true (pull-up logic).
Display Function
Not Assign No input on terminal D2.

4 - 20 mA The current range output from A1 is 4 to 20 mA.
When parameter AQ2 Output Type (see above) is set to 4 - 20 mA, this parameter adjusts

fault may be reset manually. Note that if you configure the STOP key to reset faults, an ac-
tive fault display must be shown on the keypad for the STOP key to reset a fault.The follow-
ing functions may be assigned to this parameter:

played. This is not a fault; rather it is a message that will cease being displayed if the value
of this parameter is set to Disabled.
The following functions may be assigned:
Display Function
The drive will not detect input phase failure. You must assign this func-
Disabled tion if a 3-phase 230 V AC WF2 model is used on a 1-phase 230 V AC

This parameter configures whether the drive will monitor for excessive temperature, and
whether excessive temperature is treated as a warning or fault. The following functions may
be assigned:
Display Function

When an overtemperature condition is detected, a warning is issued
Warning
(and the drive continues to operate).
When an overtemperature condition is detected, a fault occurs (and the

to determine the reference speed. The following functions may be assigned:
Display Function

Retain Spd The last known reference speed will remain in effect.
The drive will ramp to the frequency set by parameter Loss Ref Freq

Fault A fault is generated and the drive stops.
When an overvoltage (OV) fault is detected, this parameter configures whether the fault is
automatically reset or whether a manual reset will be required.
If you select automatic resetting, after a fault is detected, the drive will stop and wait for the
duration configured by Auto Reset Time (see page 125).
After pausing for the specified duration, the drive will attempt to perform a ramp-type or a
catch-on-the-fly start (depending on the setting of the Auto Reset Strt parameter; see page
125). If the attempt is unsuccessful, the process of waiting and attempting a re-start will re-
peat up to the number of attempts set by parameter Fault Lockout # (see page 125). Once
the number of attempts is exceeded, a manual reset and re-start must be performed.
The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
The drive will not automatically reset and re-start; it must be reset man-
Disabled
ually.
Enabled The drive will automatically reset and attempt to re-start.
When an overcurrent (OC) fault is detected, this parameter configures whether the fault is
automatically reset or whether a manual reset will be required. See the discussion of auto-
matic resetting and re-starting found under parameter OV Auto-Reset (page 124) for more
information.
The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
The drive will not automatically reset and re-start; it must be reset man-
Disabled
ually.

When an overtemperature (OT) fault is detected (that is, the temperature exceeds the value
set in parameter Drive Temp Trip see page 77), this parameter configures whether the
fault is automatically reset or whether a manual reset will be required. See the discussion
of automatic resetting and re-starting found under parameter OV Auto-Reset (page 124)
for more information.
The following data codes may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
The drive will not automatically reset and re-start; it must be reset man-
Disabled
ually.
Enabled The drive will automatically reset and attempt to re-start.
This parameter sets the number of faults that may occur before automatic resetting is dis-
abled. Once the number set by this parameter is exceeded, a manual reset of the fault will
be required. (A manual reset is accomplished by displaying an active fault display and then
pressing the STOP key on the keypad, or by using a digital input.)
When automatic resetting of certain types of faults is enabled by one of the auto-reset pa-
rameters (for example, OV Auto-Reset, OC Auto-Reset, or OT Auto-Reset), this param-
eter defines the autoreset lockout interval. During the auto-reset lockout interval, the drive
will reset certain faults up to the limit set with parameter Fault Lockout # and execute a
start in accordance with the settings of parameter Auto Reset Strt (see below). Once the
auto-reset lockout interval is exceeded, the fault count will be reset to zero and auto-reset-
ting will continue as though it were the first occurrence.
When automatic resetting of certain types of faults is enabled by one of the auto-reset pa-
rameters (OV Auto-Reset, OC Auto-Reset, OT Auto-Reset), this parameter specifies the
type of start to be performed after the time delay set by parameter Auto Reset Time elaps-
es. Note that automatic restarting of the drive can only be accomplished if a 2-wire (main-
tained Run) control scheme is used.
The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function

Ramping
speed to the commanded speed.
Flying start The drive matches the commanded speed and then enters Run mode.
This parameter configures what action, if any, is taken when the drive is configured for serial
link control of either direction or speed and it does not sense a valid serial communication
telegram within the period of time specified by parameter Comm Timeout (see page 132)
when operating in a Modbus environment. When operating in a DeviceNet environment, the
time duration is supplied by the DeviceNet network.
The following data codes may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled The drive does not take any action.
Warning A warning is generated, but the drive continues to operate.
Fault A fault is generated and the drive stops.
This parameter configures what action, if any, is taken when the drive senses that the DC
voltage is outside of normal limits on power-up.
The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function

resume operation.
Fault A fault is generated and the drive stops.
This parameter imposes a delay in the drives process of auto-resetting a fault. (This is often
needed to accommodate the limitations of a driven machine.) Once the time duration of the
imposed delay elapses, a re-start will be attempted using the type of start specified by the
Auto Reset Strt parameter (see page 125).

This parameter group contains parameters that configure the functionality of the keypad
display as well as the language used for the display.
This parameter configures what information is shown on the display of the digital keypad in
Operate mode. The following functions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
The output frequency is shown in the display. (See figure 23 on page
Std Disply
56 for an example of this display.)
A custom unit may be created using the User Units Mult, User Units
Div, User Label 1, User Label 2, and User Label 3 parameters and
User Units
displayed on the keypad. See below for information on these parame-
ters.
Display Function
The display shows retention time, which is a reciprocal function of the
normal speed/frequency proportional output. The displayed value for
the retention time (RDV) is derived by dividing the value of User Units
Mult (UUM) by the value of User Units Div (UUD), and then multiplying
Reten Time the result by the quotient of the Maximum Frequency (FMAX) divided
by 10 times the operating frequency (FOUT). As an equation, this is
represented as follows:
UUM Maximum Frequency
RDV = ------------- --------------------------------------------------------
UUD ( 10 FOUT )
This parameter may be used in creating a custom unit that is displayed on the keypad. The
value stored in this parameter multiplies the displayed frequency value.
For example, to show speed in revolutions per minute for an 1800 rpm motor, the Display
Mode parameter would be set to User Units and the User Units Mult parameter would be
set to 30. (The default value for the User Units Div parameter is 1, and so it does not need
to be altered for this example.)
This parameter may be used in creating a custom unit that is displayed on the keypad. The
displayed frequency is divided by the value stored in this parameter.
The custom unit created with the above parameters may have a three-character label ap-
plied to it. These three parameters specify the first through the third characters, respective-
ly. A character is selected by using the Up or Down arrow keys to scroll to the desired char-
acter and then pressing ENTER. The characters supported by the WF2 drive are upper and
lower case A through Z, 0 through 9, blank (space), and # % + . / : < = > _ , @ ^ &
When using serial communication, the data codes for these characters are as follows: A
Z (026), az (2752), 09 (5362), # (63), % (64), + (65), (66), . (67), / (68), : (69), < (70),
= (71), > (72), _ (73), , (75), @ (76), ^ (77), & (78).

lost, fault code 40 will be generated. This is the default value for models
other than N models.
This is only available for B and D models, and denotes that both a

tion with the keypad does not occur in the specified amount of time.
[1] NOTE: When the keypad is the primary control mechanism, if this function is selected and communication is
interrupted (that is, temporarily lost and then restored), then the drive may not recognize the pressing of the
Stop key even if the keypad is communicating with the drive.
This parameter group contains parameters that perform special functions, such as the stor-
ing of parameter values.
This parameter is of assistance in debugging abnormal drive behavior. The following data
codes may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function

All parameters are reset to the factory defaults (see chapter 11 on page
Factry Rst
156 for default values).
Store Parm The customers parameter values are stored in non-volatile memory.
Load Param All parameters are set to the values stored in non-volatile memory.
This parameter allows you to select special operating modes of the WF2 drive. The follow-
ing data codes may be assigned to this parameter.
Display Function

figure parameter group and re-configuring other parameters to support
Sequencer

This parameter allows you to perform special operations on the WF2 drive. The following
data codes may be assigned to this parameter:
Range: Default:
This group provides parameters for utilizing Modbus or DeviceNet protocol for serial link
communications. It also provides access to status parameters so you may check on a
drive's performance as well as the external frequency references for the drive. Finally, for
troubleshooting, the actual control words being written over the serial link may be viewed
by reading the control word found in this parameter group.
Note that the status and control words are represented by four hexadecimal values, which
are then translated to binary values (see chapter 12 on page 179). The binary values are
then compared to the bit positions to derive status information. (The significance of each bit
is indicated in the table below).
For example, you might write hexadecimal value 0013 for Cntl Word 1. Translated to a bi-
nary value, this is 0000 0000 0001 0011. Only the ones are important, and these are found
in bit positions 4, 1, and 0. As shown by the key for Cntl Word 1, the serial link is the control
path for control functions and the reference speed (bits 0 and 1) and the value of parameter
Ext Freq Ref 2 is the reference speed (bit 4).
The parameters in this group are shown in the order in which they are displayed on the key-
pad. See page 52 for the pin-out diagram for the Modbus communication port.
This parameter determines whether RTU or ASCII Modbus protocol will be used for serial
link communications, or whether the DeviceNet protocol will be used. If set to DeviceNet,
Siemens P1, or Metasys N2, internal set-up of the respective option board automatically oc-
curs.
This parameter sets the baud rate for serial communication. The following baud rates may
be assigned:
Display Function
Disabled Serial communication is not being utilized.
1200 1200 bps. [1]
2400 2400 bps. [1]
4800 4800 bps. [1]
9600 9600 bps (default for Modbus communication). [1]
19.2K 19.2K bps. [1]
38.4K 38.4K bps. [2]
125K 125k bps [2] (default for DeviceNet communication). [3]
250K 250K bps. [2]
500K 500K bps. [2]
[1] Only available for Modbus communication (parameter Comm Protocol set to RTU or ASCII).
[2] Only available for DeviceNet communication (a DeviceNet option board is installed and parameter Comm
Protocol is set to DeviceNet).
[3] The default setting for DeviceNet may be changed to either 250K or 500K, but the change will not take effect
until power is cycled.
This parameter sets the parity and the number of data and stop bits recognized by the serial
communication port. If parameter Comm Protocol is set to DeviceNet, the value of this pa-
rameter cannot be changed from its default value. The following may be assigned:
Display Function
N81 No parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit.
N82 No parity, 8 data bits, 2 stop bits.
E81 Even parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit.
O81 Odd parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit.
This parameter sets the drop number of the serial communication port. If parameter Comm
Protocol is set to RTU or ASCII, the range is from 1 to 247 (with a default of 1); if it is set
to DeviceNet, the range is 0 to 63 (with a default of 63).
Note that when DeviceNet protocol is used, you may change the drop number set in this
parameter, but the change will not take effect until power is cycled.
The serial communication interface may be monitored by a watchdog function. The WF2
drives watchdog function is enabled by setting the value of parameter Net Timeout Flt to
either Warning or Fault (see page 125).
When the watchdog function is set to Fault and the drive is configured for serial link control
of either direction or speed, the drive must sense a valid telegram within the duration set by
Net Timeout Flt. If a valid telegram is not sensed within the configured time period, the
drive will generate Fault 42 (Ser Lnk Timeout) and coast to a stop.
If the watchdog function is set to Warning instead of Fault, the drive must still sense a valid
telegram within the duration set by Net Timeout Flt. However, if a valid telegram is not re-
ceived in the configured time period, then the drive will generate Fault Code 58 (Ser Lnk
TimeOut Warning) and keep running.
This parameter sets baud rate for communication with the enhanced keypad, and may be
set to either 9600 or 19200 bps.
This parameter configures a watchdog timer for communication with an enhanced keypad.
If the enhanced keypad does not respond in the configured amount of time and parameter
Keypad Control is set to EKP Loss or SKP or EKP (see page 129), fault code 40 will be
generated.
The bits of the word represented by this parameter perform the following actions (note that

The bits of the word represented by this parameter perform the following actions (note that
if parameter Application is set to Sequencer to invoke the Sequencer application, Bit 0
enables this application for use; otherwise, Bit 0 enables PID control. Also, Bits 13 and 14

plication is invoked):

This parameter sets the frequency for the first external frequency reference (FEXT1).
This parameter sets the frequency for the second external frequency reference (FEXT2).
The bits of the word represented by this parameter provide the following information (note
that if parameter Application is set to Sequencer to invoke the Sequencer application, Bit
10 will be set to zero and cannot be changed because Remote mode is disabled):

This group contains parameters that configure the PID control function of the WF2 drive.
When configuring PID control loops, you should bear in mind that the acceleration and de-
celeration ramps will affect closed loop operation. For optimum performance, the ramps
should be set to the smallest values possible without causing nuisance tripping. Chapter 13
provides further information on configuring and tuning PID control loops.
This parameter determines what means are used to enable PID control as well as the type
of PID control that is enabled. The following values may be assigned to this parameter:
If you select a digital input or function key as the means to enable PID control, remember
to configure the parameter that sets the function of the digital input or function key to enable
PID control to complete the implementation. For further information on using serial commu-
nication to enable PID control, see parameter Cntl Word 2 on page 134.
This parameter sets whether the PID control loop is direct-acting or reverse-acting (inverse-
acting). Direct-acting systems are characterized by the process variable (sensed by the
transducer) diminishing as the setpoint is approached. Conversely, reverse-acting systems
are characterized by the process variable increasing as the setpoint is approached.The fol-
lowing values may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Direct Direct-acting PID control loop.
Reverse Reverse-acting PID control loop.
This parameter configures the source of the feedback signal, which may be either Ref 1,
Ref 2, or Ref 3. These references are in turn configurable to be set by analog input 1 or 2
of the WF2 drive or analog input A, B, or C of the Analog Input/Output Option Board; see
page 90 for more information. The following sources may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Ref 1 Reference 1.
Ref 2 Reference 2.
Ref 3 Reference 3.
This parameter configures the short-term response of the drive to incremental change in
the feedback signal. The range of this parameter is 0 to 1000 corresponding to 0.0% to
100.0% of the maximum frequency.
This parameter sets the long-term response of the drive to a change in the feedback signal.
(This is sometimes called averaging time.)
By setting this parameter appropriately, the drive may be calibrated to ignore short-term
perturbations seen in the transducer signal (that may be considered either noise or insig-
nificant) while still responding to longer-term effects reflected in the signal.
The range of this parameter is 0 to 1000, with 0 being inactive and 1000 being the quickest
response time.
This parameter sets the gain of the derivative term in the drives response to changes in the
feedback input. The range of this parameter is 0 to 1000, with 0 being inactive and 1000
being maximum derivative gain.
UNSTABLE OPERATION.
ATTENTION!
Changing the value of this parameter to a number greater than 0 may result in unstable op-
eration. Since most applications only require integral feedback conditioning (not derivative
feedback conditioning, which is accomplished with this parameter), adjustment of this pa-
rameter should only be performed by experienced personnel and with great care.
Failure to observe this warning may result in injury or equipment damage.
This parameter provides a scaling factor for the feedback signal. The range is 0 to 2000
corresponding to 0.0% to 200.0% of the maximum frequency.
This parameter sets the high limit of PID output. The range is 0.00 to 100.00% of the max-
imum frequency.
This parameter sets the low limit of PID output. The range is 0.00 to 100.00% of the maxi-
mum frequency.
When the PID output exceeds the value of this parameter (which is a percentage of the ref-
erence frequency), a digital output or relay may be configured to provide notification.
When the PID output falls below the value of this parameter (which is a percentage of the
reference frequency), a digital output or relay may be configured to provide notification.
This parameter shows the setpoint for the PID control loop. The setpoint is expressed as a
percentage of the maximum frequency. The value shown in this parameter can be used to
determine whether the control path of the drive is configured correctly as well as whether
the analog input is configured correctly with respect to span and offset.
This parameter establishes the setpoint for the feedback signal as a percentage of the max-
imum frequency. This parameter may be used to provide analog input scaling of the feed-
back signal. It can also be sent to either the AQ1 or AQ2 analog output terminal if the analog
output is configured to show the PID feedback signal (see page 120 for more information).
This parameter shows the value of the error between PID feedback and PID reference. The
error is expressed as a percentage of the maximum frequency.
This parameter shows the sum of P-Part, + I-Part, and + D-Part components. The sum is
limited by parameters PID High Limit and PID Low Limit.
This parameter shows the amount of the proportional contribution to the total output, ex-
pressed as a percentage of the maximum frequency.
This parameter shows the amount of the integral contribution to the total output, expressed
as a percentage of the maximum frequency.
This parameter shows the amount of the derivative contribution to the total output, ex-
pressed as a percentage of the maximum frequency.
The following parameters are not found in a parameter group, and cannot be read with the
simple keypad nor with the enhanced keypad when it is in the Parameter mode. Instead,
these parameters may be read with the enhanced keypad when it is in the Direct Parameter
Access mode by entering the parameter address or via serial communication.
This parameter stores a code signifying the drive family. For the WF2 inverter, it is set to 6
to signify a WF2-series inverter.
These parameters comprise a fault history log. Each parameter stores a code signifying the
fault that occurred; see Section 8 for the list of fault codes. The code for the most recent
fault is stored in parameter Fault History 1; the code for the oldest fault is stored in param-
eter Fault History 9.
When a new fault occurs, the value of parameter Fault History 1 is moved to Fault History
2; the former value of Fault History 2 is moved to Fault History 3; and so on up to Fault
History 9. The code that was stored in parameter Fault History 9 is discarded.
These parameters store the codes of up to six faults that are currently active. (See Section
8 for the list of fault codes.) If more than six faults are active, the remaining faults are not
recorded. These parameters will be cleared when the drive is reset.

9 WF2 Options
The enhanced keypad is available for remote mounting or hand-held use in your applica-
tion. It is available in either a white (part number EKPW-01) or gray configuration (part
number EKPG-01). It affords all the flexibility described in section 6 of this manual.
The IP31 model may optionally be fitted with a kit for terminating shielded cable. Four kits
are available, depending on the size of the model (the part numbers for the kits are
W2CP01, W2CP02, W2CP03, and W2CP04).
These kits contain four clamps that slide into slots on the included cable plate. The clamps
are used to terminate shielded cable. The cable plate easily replaces the conduit plate on
the bottom of the IP31 model.
This product allows the standard RS-232 serial port of a computer to be interfaced with the
drives industrially-rated RS-485 communication port.
The Reflash Tool allows you to upgrade the firmware of the WF2 Sensorless Vector Drive.
This allows the latest features to be implemented in existing hardware. For more informa-
tion on this capability, refer to Form 1322 Reflash Procedures for the E-trAC WF2 Series
Sensorless Vector Drive.
To augment the braking capacity of the WF2 drive, TB Woods makes three dynamic brak-
ing units that may be added to the drive:
Model WDB211 dynamic braking unit (for 230 V AC models),
Model WDB411 dynamic braking unit (for 460 V AC models), and
Model WDB510 dynamic braking unit (for 575 V AC models).
See page 34 for more information on adding a dynamic braking unit to a WF2 drive.
The DeviceNet Option Board (part number WF2DN01) provides an RS485 interface to a
DeviceNet network. It supports baud rates up to 500K. Contact BERGES for further infor-
mation.
The Analog Input/Output Option Board (part number WF2AIO-01) provides up to three ad-
ditional analog input channels, two additional analog output channels, and two additional
relays for the WF2 inverter. Contact BERGES for further information.
10 Sequencer Application
10.1 Introduction
The WF2 drive provides a powerful feature for performing sequences of operations, the Se-
quencer application. The Sequencer application provides ten fully configurable steps that
comprise the program for the sequencer.
This application is made available (loaded) by setting parameter Application to the value
Sequencer (see page 130 for more information). This allows the Seq Configure parameter
group to be capable of being displayed and also re-configures other parameters to support
the Sequencer application. New parameters become available, while other parameters are
no longer needed and cease to be displayed. In addition, the functionality of some param-
eters is modified to support the application. Note that the values of all parameters are reset
to the factory defaults when the Sequencer application is loaded.
Once the application is loaded by changing the value of parameter Application, setting the
value of the Seq Enable parameter to Always turns the application on permanently. Alter-
nately, you may elect to turn the sequencer application on and off as needed by using a
digital input, function key (if an enhanced keypad is connected to the WF2 drive), or remote
communication via the serial link.
Once the application is turned on, it may be run via input from the keypad or the terminal
strip. Once running, it may be paused at a particular step by using a digital input, function
key (if an enhanced keypad is connected to the WF2 drive), or remote communication via
the serial link. These means may also be used to reset the application.
The digital input and function key forms of control may also be used to force the sequencer
to move from one step to the next if automated stepping is not desired. If automated step-
ping is desired, each step may be configured to start when the input signal on either analog
input 1 or analog input 2 crosses a high or low threshold, a certain amount of time has
elapsed, or a combination of these criteria (including a combination between time duration
and digital input or function key).
The following sections describe the modifications that occur when parameter Application
is set to Sequencer.
When the Sequencer application is loaded, the following WF2 functions and parameters are
no longer supported:
Local/Remote modes: parameters Local/Remote, Local Config, and Remote Config.
Further, all data values for switching between Local and Remote modes (for example,
L/R Switch for parameter D2 Configure) are unavailable.
EMOP operation: parameters EMOP Config and EMOP Ramp Time. Further, all data
values for EMOP operation (for example, EMOP +Spd for parameter D3 Configure)
are unavailable.
The third, fourth, and fifth skip-frequency bands: parameters Skip 3 Low Lim, Skip 3 Hi
Lim, Skip 4 Low Lim, Skip 4 Hi Lim, Skip 5 Low Lim, and Skip 5 Hi Lim.
Configurability of alternate acceleration and deceleration ramps (the AR1 and AR2
ramps are forced to be linear with no S-rounding): parameters AR1 Ramp Type, AR1
S-Rounding, AR2 Ramp Type, and AR2 S-Rounding.
Configurability of the D2, D3, D4, and D5 digital inputs (D2 is set as Stop, D3 is set as
Seq Enable, D4 is set as Seq Run, and D5 is set as Seq Reset): parameters D2 Con-
figure, D3 Configure, D4 Configure, and D5 Configure.
PID functionality is disabled so all parameters in the PID Configure group are not avail-
able.
The parameters that support configuration of the Analog Input/Output Option Board
(WF2AIO-01) are not available.
DeviceNet communication is not permitted.
Due to the added requirements of the application, the following modifications are made
when the Sequencer application is loaded:
Parameters Accel Time 3 and Decel Time 3 are combined into one parameter called
Acc/Dec Time 3. The default value of this new parameter is 10 s (if a non-default value
was set for either of the old parameters, that value is discarded).
Parameters Jog Accel Time and Jog Decel Time are combined into one parameter
called Jog Acc/Dec Time. The default value of this new parameter is 1 s (if a non-de-
fault value was set for either of the old parameters, that value is discarded).
The ability to switch between terminal strip and keypad control modes via Bit 11 of pa-
rameter Cntl Word 1 is disabled.
Bit 0 of parameter Cntl Word 2 ceases to enable PID control and instead is used to turn
the Sequencer application on or off. In addition, Bits 13 and 14 are ignored because De-
viceNet communication is not permitted.
The assignable values for parameters D6 Configure through D10 Configure as well as
Enter Key are modified to include Stp Change, Seq Reset, Seq Pause, and Seq Enable.
The parameters for configuring the function keys of the enhanced keypad are modified
to allow control of the Sequencer application.
When the Sequencer application is loaded, several new parameters (in various groups) be-
come available as well as a new parameter group called Seq Configure. The following sec-
tions describe the new parameters and parameter group.
Two new parameters are made available at the end (after the Freq Ref Ctrl parameter) of
the Drive Status group.
This parameter shows the source for start/stop commands when the Sequencer application
is running.
This parameter shows the length of time (in minutes) that the current step has been running.
This parameter shows the length of time (in seconds) that the current step has been run-
ning.
Two new parameters are inserted in the Ramps group (between parameters Accel Time
3/Decel Time 3 and Main Ramp Type).
This parameter sets the length of time to accelerate from 0 Hz to the maximum frequency
as well as to decelerate from the maximum frequency to 0 Hz for Alternate Ramp 3 (AR3).
This parameter sets the length of time to accelerate from 0 Hz to the maximum frequency
as well as to decelerate from the maximum frequency to 0 Hz for Alternate Ramp 4 (AR4).
A new parameter group becomes available to allow you to configure the steps of the Se-
quencer application. This is the Seq Configure group, and is placed at the end of the list of
parameter groups (after the Communications group).
This parameter determines the means by which the Sequencer application is turned on.
The following may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled Disabled.
Always Permanently turned on.
Display Function
Turned on or off by digital input D3, which is hard-coded for this func-
By DI
tion; a different digital input cannot be used instead of D3.
Turned on or off by a function key on the enhanced keypad. The pa-
rameter that configures the operation of the actual function key to be
By F-key
used for turning the Sequencer application on or off must be set appro-
priately; see page 129 for more information.
By Ser Lnk Turned on by setting Bit 0 of Cntl Word 2 to 1 via the serial link.
Once the Sequencer application is turned on, this parameter determines the means by
which the application is run. The following may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Keypad Input from the keypad.
Term Strip Input from the terminal strip.
NOTE: Parameter Cntl Word 2 (see page 134), which may be used to enable and control
the Sequencer application via the serial link, takes precedence over the setting of this pa-
rameter.
This parameter determines the means by which the Sequencer application may be stopped
at a particular step. The following may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled Disabled (the Sequencer application cannot be paused).
Digital input D4, which is hard-coded for this function; a different digital
By DI
input cannot be used instead of D4.
A function key on the enhanced keypad. The parameter that configures
the operation of the actual function key to be used to pause the Se-
By F-key
quencer application must be set appropriately; see page 129 for more
information.
By Ser Lnk Setting Bit 1 of Cntl Word 2 to 1 via the serial link.
This parameter determines the means by which the Sequencer application is reset. The fol-
lowing may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled Disabled (the application cannot be reset even if enabled and running).
By digital input D5, which is hard-coded for this function; a different dig-
By DI
ital input cannot be used instead of D5.
By a function key on the enhanced keypad. The parameter that config-
ures the operation of the actual function key to be used for resetting the
By F-key
application must be set appropriately; see page 129 for more informa-
tion.
By Ser Lnk By setting Bit 2 of Cntl Word 2 to 1 via the serial link.
Each of the ten steps of the Sequencer application are configured with the same parame-
ters, with the parameters being made unique with the addition of a number at the end of the
parameter name that corresponds to the step. For example, parameter Freq Config 1 sets
the reference frequency for step 1, while Freq Config 8 sets the reference frequency for
step 8.
In the following description of the parameters, the step number is replaced with the letter n.
See chapter 11 for the address of each of the parameters.
This parameter configures the reference frequency for step n of the Sequencer application.
The following reference frequencies may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Spd - Rf 1 Reference 1.
Spd - Rf 2 Reference 2.
Spd - Rf 3 Reference 3.
Spd -R1+R2 The summation of references 1 and 2.
Spd -R1+R3 The summation of references 1 and 3.
S -R1+R2+R3 The summation of all references.
Spd -R2+R3 The summation of references 2 and 3.
Reference 2 is scaled by factor k and then summed with reference 1.
S-R1+k*R2
The value of k is set by parameter Set k-Factor (see page 92).
Spd-R1-R2 The difference between references 1 and 2.
Spd-R2-R1 The difference between references 2 and 1.
Spd-R1-R3 The difference between references 1 and 3.
Spd-R3-R1 The difference between references 3 and 1.
Spd-R2-R3 The difference between references 2 and 3.
Spd-R3-R2 The difference between references 3 and 2.
S-R1+R2-R3 The summation of references 1 and 2 less reference 3.
S-R1+R3-R2 The summation of references 1 and 3 less reference 2.
The speed reference is constant and is set by parameter Fixed Freq n
Spd-Fixed
(see below).
When parameter Freq Config n is set to Spd-Fixed, this parameter specifies the frequency.
This parameter sets the direction of rotation for step n of the Sequencer application. The
following directions may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Stop The shaft does not turn.
Forward The shaft turns in the Forward direction.
Reverse The shaft turns in the Reverse direction.
If parameter Go Next Step n or Goto X Step n uses a time duration (either alone or in com-
bination with other criteria; see pages 152 and 153), this parameter sets the number of min-
utes that step n will run (partial minutes are set with the following parameter).
If parameter Go Next Step n or Goto X Step n uses a time duration (either alone or in com-
bination with other criteria; see pages 152 and 153), this parameter sets the number of sec-
onds in addition to the number of minutes configured in parameter Seq Time(min) n that
step n will run.
This parameter configures the acceleration and deceleration ramps for step n of the Se-
quencer application. The following may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Main Ramps Parameters Accel Time 1 and Decel Time 1.
AR1 Parameters Accel Time 2 and Decel Time 2 (Alternate Ramp 1).
AR2 Parameter Accel Time 3 Decel Time 3 (Alternate Ramp 2).
AR3 Parameter Acc/Dec Time 4 (Alternate Ramp 3).
AR4 Parameter Acc/Dec Time 5 (Alternate Ramp 4).
This parameter configures the condition that will cause the Sequencer application to move
from step n to the next step. The following conditions may be assigned to this parameter:
This parameter configures the condition that will cause the Sequencer application to move
from step n to step x, where x is the step set in parameter X Step n (see page 155). The
following conditions may be assigned to this parameter:
This parameter configures the lower threshold, expressed as a percentage of the full analog
input range, for an analog input signal. When the input signal at analog input 1 or 2 falls
below the value in this parameter, that condition may be used to advance the Sequencer
from step n to another step. See parameters Go Next Step n and Goto X Step n for more
information.
This parameter configures the upper threshold, expressed as a percentage of the full ana-
log input range, for an analog input signal. When the input signal at analog input 1 or 2 goes
above the value in this parameter, that condition may be used to advance the Sequencer
from step n to another step. See parameters Go Next Step n and Goto X Step n for more
information.
This parameter specifies the step to which to advance when the condition of parameter
Goto X Step n is met. The following may be assigned to this parameter:
Display Function
Disabled The Sequencer will not advance.
Step 1 Step 1.
Step 2 Step 2.
Step 3 Step 3.
Step 4 Step 4.
Step 5 Step 5.
Step 6 Step 6.
Step 7 Step 7.

Table 32
The WF2 drive utilizes hexadecimal numbers to display and store the binary values of some
parameters. These parameters are read and written as four-digit hexadecimal values. The
hexadecimal values are then translated to binary values, with the binary values being com-
pared to the key provided for each parameter to determine what status is shown or what
action is commanded.
The following table shows the sixteen hexadecimal values and the corresponding binary
values. The binary values are divided into four columns so you may more readily see which
bits of the status or control words are affected by the binary values.
13.1 Introduction
This section discusses the parameters used for PI control and provides advice on how best
to configure these parameters for your particular application.
Parameter PID Configure determines whether feed-forward is enabled and whether the
loop is operated via digital inputs. The following paragraphs discuss these characteristics
in more detail:
Feed-forward
Feed-forward is usually enabled when there is very little difference between the process
speed and the feedback signal.
For example, feed-forward is useful in speed regulation situations, such as controlling mo-
tor speed in a closed loop. Note that feed-forward should be enabled when attempting to
close a speed loop.
Feed-forward is not suited to applications such as pressure regulation systems because
generally the process speed and the process variable are vastly different.

Fundamentals of PID Control
A digital input or the Enter key, when properly configured via the corresponding parameter,
may be used to toggle PID control.
Generally, a remote input is used when the process will be operated as both a closed and
an open loop and/or when circumstances may arise where you would want to override the
process speed as determined by the process variable and reference.
Remember: to complete the implementation, you must configure a remote input separately
to invoke PID control.
Parameter PID Direct Type configures another characteristic of PID control whether the
loop is direct-acting or reverse-acting (also known as inverse-acting).
In a direct-acting loop, as the process speed increases, the feedback signal will decrease
and cause a corresponding decrease in the process speed as it approaches the regulation
point. In other words, as the regulation point is approached, the error between the reference
signal and the feedback signal decreases, resulting in a decrease in the process speed.
This type is typically employed in pump applications where level control is the process var-
iable.
Conversely, in an inverse-acting loop, as the process speed increases, the feedback signal
increases but causes a corresponding decrease in the process speed as it approaches the
regulation point. In other words, as the regulation point is approached, if the error between
the reference signal and the feedback signal increases due to an increase in the feedback
signal, then the process speed will increase. This type is typically employed in supply pump
applications where pressure is the process variable.
Parameter Feedback Config allows you to configure the source for the feedback signal.
This source may be Ref 1, Ref 2, or Ref 3. Each of these sources are configurable to map
to either the A1 or A2 analog input of the WF2 drive or analog inputs A, B, or C of the Analog
Input/Output Option Board. By default, Ref 1 maps to the A1 analog input, while Ref 2 and
Ref 3 map to the A2 analog input. For further information, see the discussion of the Ref1
Config, Ref2 Config, and Ref3 Config parameters on page 90. For further information on
the Analog Input/Output Option Board, see page 145.
Parameter Feedback Gain is the feedback scaling factor. It is used to scale the signal sup-
plied by the transducer thereby optimizing the effect of the signal on the drive.
Parameter PID Prop Gain is the proportional feedback gain for the process control loop. It
determines the overall effect on the process for an incremental change in the feedback sig-
nal.
Generally, when configuring this parameter, you must observe the drives response to an
incremental change in the feedback input, and then decide if this response is sufficient.
For example, if the feedback input changes 1 V (or 1 mA), what is the drives response? Is
it enough or too much?
Parameter PID Int Gain is the integral feedback gain for the process control loop. This pa-
rameter determines the short-term effects of a change in the feedback signal over a certain
amount of time. (This is sometimes referred to as the averaging time.)
Generally, when configuring this parameter, you must observe the drives response to an
incremental change in the feedback input over a certain length of time, and then decide if
this response is acceptable.
For example, if the feedback input changed 1 V (or 1 mA) for 5 seconds, what is the drives
response? Is it acceptable? Would you prefer to have the drive ignore a change over such
a short time period, but still react to longer time durations (say, 8 to 10 seconds)? (If so,
decreasing the integral gain by reducing the value for parameter PID Int Gain would have
that effect.)
Parameter PID Deriv Gain is the derivative feedback gain for the process control loop. This
parameter calibrates the magnitude of a step response to a change in the feedback signal.
CAUTION !
UNSTABLE OPERATION
Changing the value of this parameter to a number greater than 0 may result in unstable
operation. Since most applications only require integral feedback conditioning (not deriva-
tive feedback conditioning, which is accomplished with this parameter), adjustment of this
parameter should only be performed by experienced personnel and with great care.
Failure to observe this instruction can result in injury or equipment damage.
Once the parameters are initially configured, you should tune them so the process control
loop operates as optimally as possible. To make tuning easier, the following recommenda-
tions should be observed:
If your application does not require enabling by digital input, for the duration of tuning
you should select a value for parameter PID Configure which does allow a digital input
to enable PID control. Once tuning is finished, you can restore the parameter to its orig-
inal value.
Install a switch to select closed loop and open loop performance.
Connect a calibration signal to the drive to simulate the effects of the transducers signal.
While this is not absolutely required, it can be very helpful.
Once the preparations for tuning are complete, enable PID control via the digital input and
set the switch to open loop. Then operate the drive, utilizing any necessary instrumentation
(for example, pressure gauges, meters, etc.) to characterize the range of the signal sup-
plied from the transducer (for example, at 3 PSI, the transducer provides 1 V). This will aid
in better understanding the operation of the system and make calibration easier.
Select a mid-range operating point for the system and inject a signal close to that which the
transducer would provide at that point. With closed-loop selected, vary the signal by the val-
ue determined by the set-up technician and determine whether the proportional response
of the system is appropriate. If the questions posed in the previous section are answered
correctly and your initial assumptions prove correct, a combination of input scaling and pro-
portional gain should make the performance match the system.
Next, examine the transient or short-term effects that are common on all real-world sys-
tems. Use the calibrator to change the feedback signal by some value for a measured in-
terval, with the value and duration approximating the real system.
For example, say 1 V for 5 seconds was selected. By monitoring parameter PID Feedback
(either via the keypad or via an analog output configured for PID feedback), the effect of the
feedback signal may be observed. The value of this parameter should increase and then
settle back to its original value, or perhaps go below that value (negative). The value of the
parameter may go positive and negative a number of times as a response to repeated 5
second transients. Tune parameter PID Int Gain to optimize this effect to suit the circum-
stances.
If necessary, and with due caution, use a similar technique to adjust the derivative gain.
Note that parameter PID Deriv Gain will immediately produce an incremental change when
the feedback signal changes. Set the parameter to a value that produces the desired
amount of change in response to a change in the feedback signal. Any changes made to
this parameter should be minor as instabilities in loop performance will result if the param-
eter is adjusted inappropriately.
Finally, put the transducer into the circuit and review the results. The results will likely show
that the value of parameters PID Int Gain and PID Deriv Gain (if necessary) need to be
modified to complete the implementation. Minor adjustment of the other PID control param-
eters may also be necessary.
Once the process control loop is optimally functioning, if you changed the value of param-
eter PID Configure for tuning, restore it to its original value. Also, it is strongly recommend-
ed that the custom settings for the parameters be saved by using parameter Param Param
STO/RCL (see page 130 for more information).
