8.2.9.1 Incorporation of drives in automation systems / plant characterization
This section presents the different variants for incorporation of drives in
automation systems.
Nowadays, drive applications are implemented in many different ways.
The following table defines the various application classes in which
drives are used. The application classes are typical examples from the
total spectrum of electrical drive engineering and are not necessarily
covered by a specific equipment characteristic.
Application class Interface Functions
2)
1 Standard drive n-set, i-set Cyclical interface
1)
2 Standard drive with distributed
technology controller (continuous
process)
Technological
set/actual values
(command
variable)
Cyclical interface
with cross traffic
1)
3 Basic positioning drive with
distributed position control and
interpolation
pos-set, travel
tasks
Cyclical interface
1)
4 Positioning with central
interpolation and position control
Optional:
DSC (Dynamic Servo Control)
n-set
x-actual
additional for DSC:
∆x (x
err
), K
V
(k
PC
)
Cyclical interface
clock synchronous
encoder interface,
DSC (see chapter
2.4)
5 Positioning with central
interpolation and distributed
position control
x-set Cyclical interface
clock synchronous
3)
6 Motion control in clocked
processes or distributed angular
synchronism
Command variable,
motion commands
Cyclical interface
clock synchronous
and with cross
traffic
1)
The cyclical interface can also be operated clock synchronously if, for
example, simultaneity of action in several drives is required.
2)
For all application classes: Acyclical interface for parameters, diagnosis,
identification
3)
This application class is not described in this document.
Table 8.2-15 Application classes
When the MASTERDRIVES unit is used as PROFIdrive V3 slave, only
application classes 1 and 4 are used!
Several MASTERDRIVES can be connected to one PROFIdrive V3
master in class 1 as slave (Monomaster operation).
