2 Application Software Overview
2.1 iC2-Micro Application Software Overview
The application software is the default and standard software delivered with the iC2-Micro Frequency Converters. The features are briefly
described in the following sections:
l Basic Functions
l Controllers
l Protection Features
l Software Tools
2.2 Basic Functions
2.2.1 Basic Functions Overview
The application software consists of a wide range of basic features which enables the drive to control any application using the iC2-Micro
drive.
2.2.2 Reference Handling
References from multiple sources, matching the needs to control the application, are freely definable.
Reference sources are:
l Analog inputs
l Digital inputs either as pulse input
l Reference from a field bus
l Internal settings
l Local reference from control panel
l Built-in potentiometer on control panel
Reference signals can be added generating the reference to the frequency converter. The final reference is scaled from -100% to 100%.
2.2.3 Two Setups
The frequency converter offers 2 setups. Each setup can be parameterized independently to match various application needs.
Switching between setups is possible during operation, allowing fast changeover.
2.2.4 Ramps
Linear, Sine ramp, Sine 2 ramps are supported in the frequency converter. The linear ramps provide a constant acceleration. The Sine
ramps provides a non-linear acceleration with soft transition at start and end of the acceleration process.
2.2.5 Quick Stop
In some situations, it may be required to stop the application in a quick way. For this purpose, the drive supports a specific deceleration
ramp time from the synchronous motor speed to 0 RPM.
2.2.6 Limit Rotation Direction
The rotational direction of the motor can be preset to run in 1 direction only (clockwise or counterclockwise), avoiding unintended
rotation direction.
