How to get started

There are many options for using the UMC100. Not all functions are required in all cases. Therefore the
documentation is split into separate parts. You only need to read the parts that are relevant for your application.
The following manuals exist.

UMC100-FBP Technical Manual

2CDC 135 013 D02xx1

PBDTM
2CDC 192 012 D02xx1

This is the main technical description and must always be

read carefully before using the UMC.

You are now

reading this
manual

This manual describes the configuration tool (Device

Type Manager) that can be used to configure and monitor the UMC100 and also other ABB control products like
UMC22, softstarters and circuit breakers.
It is based on the standardised FDT/DTM technology.
If you plan to only configure the UMC100 with the device
description files like GSD (for PROFIBUS) or EDS (for
CAN) or via the LCD panel, you do not need to read this
manual.

UMC100-FBP Custom Application Editor

2CDC 135 014 D02xx1

FieldBusPlugs

This manual describes how to create customer-specific

applications for the UMC100.
You only need to read this manual, if the logic built into
the UMC100 does not fulfill your needs.
As the custom application editor is part of the configuration tool (Device Type Manager), it is highly recommended
that you read the PBDTM manual first

Whenever the UMC100 is to be connected to a fieldbus,

read the appropriate FieldBusPlug manual.
Presently the following FieldBusPlugs can be used
together with UMC100:

Universal Motor Controller

UMC100-FBP
Technical Description
1 System Overview
The Universal Motor Controller (UMC) is an intelligent motor controller for 3-phase AC induction motors
combining the two classical functions of motor protection and motor management in a single device plus
offering diagnostic and fieldbus communication. The device functions can be adjusted in a wide range to
cover the needs of different industries. UMC100 is a further development of the UMC22.

Function Overview
Protection Functions
The UMC provides comprehensive motor protection including phase failure detection, adjustable motor
protection for stalled motors during startup or normal operation, configurable current limits to generate
trips or warnings and many more.
Overload classes 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40
Thermistor motor protection (PTC)
Earth fault detection when used in IT networks
One device type covers the whole current range starting from 0.24 up to 63 A.
For higher currents up to 850 A additional current transformers are available.
Fieldbus Communication
The UMC100 can be integrated into different fieldbus networks such as PROFIBUS DP , DeviceNet,
MODBUS and CANopen via the FieldBusPlug interface. All measured data, status signals and parameters can be accessed via fieldbus.
It is also possible to use the UMC stand-alone (i.e. without FieldBusPlug).
The motor protection and motor management is fully functional in the event of a bus failure.
The fieldbus interface and the UMC can be separated. This offers many benefits in MCC applications
especially for withdrawable systems.
Parameterisation of the protection and control functions can be carried out with the device description
files as defined by the different fieldbuses (e.g. GSD for PROFIBUS). In addition a Device Type Manager
(DTM) offering a very convenient device configuration via a laptop or within a control system is also
available.
Motor Management, Inputs and Outputs
The UMC100-FBP provides six digital inputs, three relay outputs and one 24 V output. Therefore a wide
number of control functions can be covered from the base device.
If further inputs or outputs are needed, the basic device can be expanded with an expansion module.
That provides an additional eight digital inputs, four relay outputs and an analogue output for driving an
analogue meter.
Supported standard configurations are direct starter, reversing starter, star-delta starter, actuator, inching
mode and many more.
The digital inputs can be configured in many ways to adapt the behaviour of the UMC100 to specific
user requirements.
To execute customer specific applications the UMC100 allows free programming of its internal logic.
Function blocks for signal adjustment, boolean logic, timers, counters ... are available (see below).
Different control stations (DCS, DI, Operation Panel ...) with individual, adjustable release opportunities
are available.

Metering, Monitoring and Diagnosis

Rapid, comprehensive diagnostics and operating status information is available on the UMC100 itself
(LEDs), on the LCD panel (clear text messages), via fieldbus or on a laptop connected directly or via bus
to the UMC.
The fully graphic, multi-language LCD panel allows configuration, control and monitoring of the UMC
and its inputs and outputs.
Available diagnosis includes motor, bus and device status, maintenance counters such as number of
starts and overload releases, remaining cooling time, etc.

Function Block Programming

The UMC100 has a set of predefined applications built in. These applications are built on the basis of
function blocks and can be used directly without the need for a programming tool.
Custom applications can be created in a convenient way. The custom application editor is integrated in
the PBDTM.
You can monitor an application online to support you during development and testing.
Control and protection related and general purpose function blocks are available: boolean logic, timers,
counters, blocks representing the hardware, starter functions, ...
There are basic function blocks like boolean blocks that have no parameters. But there are also very
powerful function blocks such as the multifunction inputs or the starter blocks. Such blocks have parameters accessible via LCD and fieldbus. By setting the block parameters you can adjust the behaviour
of the blocks and the application to your needs.
Please note: It is not necessary to change the function block application if the predefined applications fulfill your requirements.
But if you have specific requirements you can enable the customer application mode
and adapt an existing application to your needs or even create your own one.
This is described in the custom application editor manual (see section 'How to get
started').

Compatibility to UMC22
Hardware
The UMC100 is mechanically compatible with the UMC22. The UMC100 does not need more space and
can be used in all situations the UMC22 was used in.
Please note that terminal 12 was previously a static 24 V output. It is now a switchable 24 V output that
can signal a protection trip for example.
Fieldbus Interface
Both devices follow the PNO profile for motor starters regarding their cyclic command and monitoring
telegram. This means the first two bytes within the cyclic telegrams are the same in both devices. But as
the UMC100 provides many new functions, the command and monitoring telegrams are now longer, so
that additional data can be transferred e.g. the status of the inputs of a connected expansion module.
To configure the new functions also the number and organisation of the parameters have changed.
This means that the UMC100 looks different from a control system integration perspective.
It is not possible to just replace the UMC22 with a UMC100. Changes in the device integration packages
are necessary.

The UMC100 follows the profile for motor management starters as defined in the PNO profile sheet for
low voltage switchgear devices.
After powering on, the UMC100 performs a self-test of its hardware and checks the configuration for
consistency.
In the event of a failure, a self-test fault is generated and signalled. After a successful self-test the UMC
enters the operational state.

Building Blocks of UMC100-FBP

The next diagram shows the major function blocks of the UMC100 and the data flow among them.
The upper main block contains the protection-related functions. Signals from different signal sources are
evaluated from the trip unit. Depending on the configuration either a trip or a warning can be created. The
motor protection always has priority regarding control of the relay outputs. In case of a protection trip the
relevant contacts are opened and thereafter the motor is stopped. If the device fails, the watchdog opens
the relay outputs automatically for safety reasons.
The main inputs for motor protection are the current measurement and the thermistor sensor. The current
measurement provides information about the actual motor current in the three phases. An advanced motor model uses the current information and calculates the corresponding motor temperature. At a certain
level it will trigger an overload trip.
The thermistor input measures the PTC resistance. Based on the resistance the cold and hot state of the
motor can be distinguished. Also short-circuit or wire break conditions can be detected.
The lower main block contains the control-related functions. Incoming commands from the panel, the digital inputs or the fieldbus are ranked from the control place selection block according to the user settings
and then forwarded to the active starter function.
The starter function block controls the relay outputs depending on its input signals and the actual state.
Additionally monitoring signals are prepared for the LCD display, the UMC100 signalling LEDs and the
fieldbus monitoring and diagnosis telegrams.
All these blocks run in the so-called logic engine. It is possible to change the application which is running
there but usually the predefined applications will be sufficient. Further information about the creation of
custom applications can be found in the Custom Application Editor manual.

Connecting the IO Modules DX111 and DX122

The modules DX111 and DX122 enable the number of and type of inputs and outputs provided by the
UMC100 to be increased.
The UMC100 can be expanded with one digital IO module. Thus, 8 additional binary inputs, 4 additional
relay outputs and 1 analogue output for driving an analogue indicator instrument are available.
The IO modules are connected via terminals Ca and Cb (see below) to the UMC100. Because of limited
installation space it might be desirable to mount the IO modules separately from the UMC100. This can
be carried out without any problems as long as the maximum cable length is not exceeded.
The following limits apply when connecting an IO module:
Either the DX111 or DX122 can be connected. It is not possible to connect both of them to the UMC100.
The distance between the UMC100 and the IO module must not be longer than specified in the technical data section.

Wiring Inputs and Outputs

The diagram below shows the block diagram and wiring for both the DX111 and the DX122 modules.
The digital inputs are galvanically isolated.
The common ground for the inputs 1DI0-4 must be connected to 1DIZ.
The common ground for the inputs 2DI5-7 must be connected to 2DIZ.
If no separate grounds are necessary, 1DIZ and 2DIZ can be connected to each other.
The relay outputs groups 1DO1/1DO2 and 2DO1/2DO2 have separate roots each.
The analogue output (AO+/AO-) is intended to drive an analogue instrument which can be used to display
the motor current. It can be adjusted as a current or voltage output.
Open wire and short-circuit faults are detected.
Supported output levels are:
0/4 - 20 mA
0 - 10 mA
0 - 10 V
The output is scaled in a way that a motor current of 0% results in 0% at the output and a motor current
of 200% results in 100% output level.
Example if the output is set as voltage output:
0% motor current -> Uout=0 V, 200% motor current -> Uout = 10 V.

Connecting External Current Transformers (CTs)

If the nominal motor current Ie is above 63 A an external current transformer (CT) must be used.
The external CT transforms the primary current flow in a smaller secondary current according to the transmission ratio. This smaller current is then measured from the UMC100.
With the parameter Current Factor the current transformer transmission ratio can be configured. So the
UMC100 knows the actually flowing primary current which is then used for the internal processing.
All types of protection current transformers of class 5P10 (Standard EN/IEC60044) can be used.
The selection should be made based on the requirements:
Secondary current (= current in the UMC100) range about 4A.
Through-hole area if single strands are used
Max. load: 60 mW (UMC100: 30m, conductor: wire size 2.5 mm, length 2 m each: 30 mW)

UMC100-FBP
Technical Description
Operation Details for Motors with Small Set Currents
When using a UMC100-FBP in an environment with very strong magnetic fields and
a small set current at the same time, the current measurement can deviate a few
percent from the real current. Therefore the displayed motor current is too high and
an overload trip occurs too early.
Very strong magnetic fields can originate from a contactor directly mounted beside
the UMC100, closely passing current links or stray fields caused by large transformers. When observing the effect, the distance between the UMC100 and the contactor shall be increased to about 5 cm or the UMC100 shall be rotated by 90 degrees
or the motor wires shall be looped through the UMC100 two to five times.
When looping the motor wires multiple times, the parameter Current Factor must be
adjusted according the number of loops. I.e. the parameter must be set to two if the
wires are looped through the UMC100 two times. Two to five loops are supported.
The displayed current and the current transmitted over the fieldbus are automatically
corrected by the UMC100.
Please note that the adaptation of the current factor for 3 circuits and multiple
loops through the UMC100 are not possible at the same time.
Via fieldbus also higher values than five e.g. six can be set. The UMC100 ignores
such values and creates a parameter fault. Values above 100 are possible and used
in combination with external current transformers (see previous page).

Technical Description
Using the UMC100 in a PROFIBUS DP Network
PROFIBUS DP is at present one of the most common fieldbus for industrial applications worldwide and
is standardised in IEC61158 together with other fieldbus protocols. The PROFIBUS DP standard has defined different network topologies. The most commonly used one is the Party Line topology where one
device is connected after the other.
PROFIBUS DP has evolved over time. The first services offered by PROFIBUS DP are the so-called V0
services. They define block parameterisation, configuration, cyclic data exchange and diagnosis information exchange. DP-V0 only allows the complete parameter set to be written in one block. The bus master
sends the parameter block to the slave during powering up of the slave/device. Some control systems
also allow the sending the parameter block during normal operation.
Later the PROFIBUS DP-V1 specification introduced new acyclic read/write services within the context of the PROFIBUS DP-V1 expansions. These acyclic services are inserted into special telegrams
during ongoing cyclical bus operation and thus ensure compatibility between PROFIBUS DP-V0 and
PROFIBUS DP-V1.
To integrate the UMC100-FBP into a PROFIBUS network either the PDQ22-FBP or the PDP22-FBP
FieldBusPlugs can be used. PDQ22-FBP allows to connect up to four UMC100s via one bus node.
PDP22-FBP integrates one UMC100 only (i.e. one bus address per UMC100).
The diagram below shows the sketch of a PROFIBUS bus line with UMC100s integrated via PDP22 and
PDQ22. A detailed description about the creation of PROFIBUS lines using PDP22 and PDQ22 is available in the FieldBusPlug manuals.

Integration with the GSD File

Besides the physical connection of a device to a PROFIBUS line, the engineering of the whole PROFIBUS
system in the PROFIBUS master is necessary. Every modern PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or
DCS (Distributed Control System), that can be used as PROFIBUS master, offer the possibility to configure and parameterise devices connected to the master.
Electronic data sheets are used as a basis. In the PROFIBUS world these electronic data sheets are
called GSD files. Within such a file all properties relevant for operation of the slave are described (e.g.
supported baud rates, max. number of modules etc.).
The GSD file ABB_0A09.GSD (for PDQ22) and ABB_34E0.GSD (for PDP22) are contained in the software
Engineering Package

PBE91-FBP.010x 1SAJ924091R010x.ZIP

The ZIP file can be obtained from ABBs web site (http://www.abb.de -> Control Products and Systems)
or on the FBP System CD (2CDC 190 008 E04xx). Please ask your local sales office for it.
The UMC100 can be parameterised using the GSD file. But due to parameter length
limitations only the most important parameters can be configured with the GSD file
in the event that the PDQ22 is used. For PDP22 this limitation does not exist.
Integration with the Device Type Manager (DTM)
In addition to the option of integrating devices with GSD files more and more modern control systems
support the FDT/DTM concept. FDT (Field Device Tool) technology standardises the communication interface between field devices and systems.
For the UMC100 (and also other FBP devices) a DTM is available which can be ordered separately. Consult the PBDTM manual for more information.
For creating a customer-specific application the DTM must be used! Parameterisation of the control and protection parameters can also be carried out with the GSD
file only.

Using the UMC100 in a DeviceNet Network

DeviceNet is based on the Controller Area Network (CAN) technology and mostly used in the Americas.
To integrate the UMC100 into a DeviceNet network use the DNP21-FBP FieldBusPlug. The figure below

In draw-out installations the UMC100 is usually mounted inside the drawer whereas the FieldBusPlug
is mounted in the cable chamber. This ensures that no trunks are required but a straight bus line can be
implemented. A very stable bus communication even at high baud rates is the result!
In the event of a drawer replacement the FieldBusPlug stays active and sends a diagnosis message to
the control system that the UMC100 is missing. Even more important - the fieldbus address is stored in
the FieldBusPlug. If a new UMC100 is connected the old bus address is automatically used. There is no
need for setting a new address! See parameter Address Check for additional details.
All necessary auxiliaries required for the installation are available. See the diagram below on how to use a

Technical Description
3 Commissioning
This chapter provides an overview of the required commissioning steps. For details about the single steps
please consult the related chapters.

Commissioning Steps
To commission the UMC100-FBP, proceed as follows:
A) Wiring
Wiring and 24 V DC / 0 V connection:
Hard wire with switch apparatus and other components acc. to the application requirements.
Connection of contactors: Use spark suppression, for larger contactors also interface relays to maintain a
good service life of the UMC100 internal relays.
Motor wiring: Check the wiring of the motor to ensure correct setting of Ie for perfect motor protection.
When using UMC100 with motors of nominal currents < 1 A please read section "Operation Details for
Motors with Small Set Currents". If the nominal motor current is above 63 A read section "Connecting
External Current Transformers (CTs)" on how to use the UMC100 with external current transformers.
If an IO expansion module is used connect the UMC100 with the IO module and hard wire the inputs of
the expansion module acc. to the application requirements.
B) Switching on the power supply
Switch on the supply voltage of the UMC100. If connected with a FieldBusPlug also ensure that the
FieldBusPlug is powered. In the fault-free state, the green UMC100 LEDs should light up.
LEDs on the UMC100:
On
Green (ready)
Yellow (motor running) Off
Red (fault/trip)
Off
LEDs on the FieldBusPlug:
In fault free state H1/H3 (left upper and lower LEDs) should light up. If no cyclic bus master is
active H2 (upper right LED) is flashing. See the technical description of the FieldBusPlug in use.
Continue with Step C) if fieldbus communication is required or continue with step D) to start the configuration.
In case of an error use the LED/UMC100-PAN information of the UMC100/FieldBusPlug to find out the
cause of the fault (see section "Fault Handling").
C) Setting the fieldbus node address
Before connecting the UMC100 to a fieldbus network (e.g. PROFIBUS) set the fieldbus address using
UMC100-PAN. That means the slave address is directly adjusted and stored in the UMC100.
To change the bus address, press Menu, select Communication and then Bus Address.

Technical Description

Select the Required Configuration Mode for the UMC100-FBP

The UMC100 can be configured in different ways depending on your system setup:

Configuration via LCD panel

The device address has to be configured via LCD panel. And it is possible to adjust the other protection and control parameters of the UMC100 using the panel. The configuration via LCD panel is good for
stand-alone applications (without bus) and when no Laptop for parameterisation is in use.
The configuration via LCD panel can be password-protected to prevent unintentional parameter changes.

Configuration from within the control system

Device description files allow the integration and configuration of a device in the fieldbus master. For
PROFIBUS this file is called a GSD file. In case of CANopen and DeviceNet so-called EDS files are commonly used. The UMC100 can be configured using these configuration files. A considerable benefit of
this method of configuration is that the configuration is stored centrally in the control system and can be
downloaded again in the event of a replacement.
If the UMC100 is connected via PROFIBUS and the control system supports the FDT/DTM technology
it is also possible to configure the UMC100 using the PBDTM (PROFIBUS Device Type Manager) from
within the system. The PBDTM offers a very user-friendly configuration interface which also allows to
adapt the internal UMC100 application logic using the custom application editor.
In online mode the PBDTM additionally provides access to all diagnosis, service and process data.

Configuration via Laptop

The configuration via laptop option is a convenient way to parameterise and monitor the UMC100.
The FDT/DTM based configuration tool provides full access to all data available in the UMC100.
The following functions are available:
Online and offline configuration and parameterisation of the UMC100
Monitoring and diagnosis of the UMC100 during operation
Function block based programming of a user specific application
Utilising of user roles and optional password protection for different tasks (e.g. engineering or operation)
The UTF21 communication adapter provides a point-to-point connection between a single UMC100 and
your laptop. The top half of the following diagram shows this setup.
If several UMC100s are connected via PROFIBUS the UTP22 communication adapter can be used.
This adapter connects your laptop to the PROFIBUS line and allows central configuration and monitoring
of all UMC100s connected to this line. This is recommended for larger PROFIBUS installations.
For configuration via laptop use the ABB tool "Asset Vision Basic". It is jointly used by
ABB Instrumentation and ABB Control Products. It is based on the FDT/DTM standard.
The installation and use of the PBDTM is described in the PBDTM manual. It also provides general information about the FDT/DTM technology.
Please read this manual carefully if you are unfamiliar with the FDM/DTM technology.

Test Position
It is possible to configure a multifunction input (DI0, DI1 or DI2) to inform the UMC that the feeder is in
test position. If the input signals test position the feeder's main circuit must be isolated from the motor
supply but the control voltage of the UMC must be connected.
During active test position the function of the feeder and its integration into the control system can be
tested. I.e. the motor can be started but the UMC does not trip because of a missing checkback.
Use the parameters Multifunction 0,1,2 to enable this function.

If the feeder is in test position the UMC has disabled the checkback supervision and
other motor current related protection functions. Therefore the test position must be
only active for commissioning purposes.

4 Configuring the Motor Protection Functions
In this chapter you find information on how to configure the different UMC protection functions.
The following topics are covered:
Function and parameters of the electronic overload protection, the thermal memory and points to
consider if the motor is started cyclically (e.g. S3 motor operation mode)
Locked rotor protection during motor start
Overcurrent and undercurrent protection during normal operation
Imbalance protection
Phase loss protection
Thermistor motor protection
Earth fault protection with auxiliary device CEM11-FBP
Protection functions can be either on or off. If switched on, they can trigger a protection trip or a warning
only (excluding the thermal overload which is always active and triggers a trip). For some functions an optional delay can be specified. Some protection functions are only active after motor start-up while others
are active during motor start.
Below is an overview of the available protection functions. For details see the following sections.

The motor start-up period ends when the motor current drops to 135% of Ie or if the class
time (i.e. Class 5 -> 1.5 s, Class 10 -> 3 s , class 20 -> 6s, class 30 -> 9s, class 40 -> 12s)
is over. The class time begins with the start command.
The motor-related and protection-related parameters shall be set according to the motor manufacturer's
data sheet. Other parameters of the UMC shall be carefully selected based on the process and the system requirements.

Automatic Reset of Protection Faults

The setting of the "Fault autoreset" parameter determines how the UMC manages protection trips.
Off (the default setting): A protection trip must be acknowledged from the user. This can be done via
LCD panel, fieldbus or the multifunction inputs DI0-DI2 if configured.
On: A protection trip is automatically acknowledged without intervention of a human operator if the trip
condition has gone (e.g. cooling time over).

Electronic Overload Protection

The UMC protects three-phase AC motors in compliance with IEC 60947-4-1. The tripping class can be
set to class 5, 10, 20, 30 or 40. The advanced thermal motor model considers both the copper and iron
parts of the motor thus providing the best protection of the motor.
Before an electronic overload trip actually happens, a pre-warning can be generated. During high overload situations the prewarning might be raised just a few seconds before the actual trip happens.
The presently used thermal capacity (0...100%) of the motor is available to the user and thus a prediction
of the time to trip for the current load situation. If the motor is switched off the time to trip shows 6553
sec (never trips). If the motor is running the predicted trip time is updated regularly. The smaller the value
the earlier the trip happens.
After an overload trip, the remaining cooling down time (=time to restart) is calculated regularly and also
available to the user. The motor can be restarted if the cooling time is 0 sec.

The thermal information of the motor is cyclically stored (thermal memory) 1).
After a thermal overload trip the motor must cool down before it can be started again. There are two options to define the necessary duration of the cooling time.
Fixed cooling time: The user has to specify a fixed duration e.g. 15 minutes. After a thermal overload
trip a further motor start is inhibited for that time. The time that has to be adjusted depends on: Motor
size, motor with or without ventilation, the environment temperature etc. Considering these points the
appropriate cooling time can be estimated. Some examples of motor cooling time constants (t.c.) (motor
standstill) can help:

Thermal capacity based cooling: The user specifies to which level (e.g. 60%) the thermal load level must
drop before a motor start is possible again.

If the UMC was switched off while the cooling time was running the UMC restarts the cooling timer with
the remaining cooling time if the power down time was shorter than 20min.

Technical Description
Example of trip class selection:
Select the trip class so that the motor is thermally protected, even when the rotor is stalled.
This means that the tripping curve of a cold motor has to be below the coordination point Ia/Ie and tE
whereas Ia is the actual current, Ie is the nominal current of the motor and tE is the maximal heating time as
defined by the motor manufacturer.
Example: Motor with enhanced safety has the data:
Power = 7.5 kW
Relation Ia/Ie = 7.4
Heating time tE = 11 s

Cyclic motor operation modes

Some applications require periodic start/operation/stop cycles. Setting up such applications requires care
when selecting the cooling down times or defining the shortest possible start period.
In the next diagram three successive start cycles are displayed. In each cycle the motor starts at 700% Ie.
This high load lasts for about 7 seconds. Then the current goes back to Ie within 6 seconds and stays at
100% Ie for about 180 seconds. At T1 the motor is switched off and cools down for 200 seconds (cooling
time is set to 200s).
After the cooling time is over the next start takes place at T2. During this cycle the motor also cools down
for 200s but the calculated thermal motor load q is already above 40%. The third start at T4 leads - as
expected - to a thermal overload trip
For cyclic operation modes it is important to keep the cycles long enough to allow the
motor to cool down sufficiently.
For cyclic start patterns it is better to select the cooling mode option "Restart Level"
which allows a restart based on the thermal load level. In the case shown below the third
start would then be allowed at the earliest at T5 for the given qR.

Technical Description
Long Start, Locked Rotor Protection
This function detects a long start situation which is caused from a locked rotor for example. The function creates a trip if the motor current continuously exceeds a threshold for a configurable period of time.
Blocking of a motor can occur due to excessive loading of the motor or due to process or mechanical
jam. The early detection and tripping of the motor protects the driven mechanical system by further damage and the motor from thermal stress. This function can only trigger a trip. Both the maximum allowed
current and the delay time until the trip occurs can be adjusted.

Example
The diagram on the left below shows the principle operation of the function. The diagram on the right
shows a concrete example. In a blocking situation which results in a given increased inrush current I, the
electronic overload protection would trip the motor at T2 whereas the blocking protection already trips at
T1.
To adjust the blocking current threshold correctly proceed as follows:
Take the highest inrush current value during a normal start. This value is displayed on
the UMC100-PAN.
Add a safety factor depending on how much your start-up load might vary.
Set the blocking delay to a value that is shorter than the trip time resulting from the thermal overload trip at the given current.

This function is useful to protect the driven mechanical system from jams and excessive overloads
caused by the equipment or the process.
The high-current function signals a warning when the motor current exceeds a set threshold for a configurable period of time, after the motor start-up. The high current function creates a trip when the current
continuously exceeds a separately set threshold for a set period of time, after the motor start-up.

Low Current Protection
The low current function is triggered when the motor current falls below a desired level. The function
detects loss of suction for pumps, broken belt for conveyors, loss of airflow for fans, broken tools for machines etc. Such states do not harm the motor but early diagnosis helps to minimise the extent of damage to the mechanical installation and subsequent loss of production
The motors on underload draw mainly the magnetising current and a small load current to overcome frictional losses. Therefore, the other reason to isolate the motors on underload is to reduce the reactive load
on the power system network.
The low current function signals a warning when the motor current falls below the warning level for a
configurable period of time, after motor start-up. The low current function creates a trip when the motor
current falls below the trip level for a configurable period of time, after motor startup.

Example:

tucwd an undercurrent warning is set.
Then at T3 the current also falls under the undercurrent trip level Iuctl but only for a period shorter than the
specified undercurrent trip delay time tuctd. Therefore no trip happens. At T4 the current falls again under
the low current level and stays there. Therefore a trip is released and the motor stopped.

Phase Loss Protection

This function protects motors against the extreme situation where a complete phase is lost. An undetected phase loss can cause motor damage because of the sudden rise of current in the two remaining
phases. Thus the thermal overload protection performs an accelerated trip during phase loss.
The phase loss protection function must not be disabled in real applications. The
phase loss protection may only be disabled for demo purposes.

The following table shows the tripping times in case of phase loss for the different trip classes.

Function:
The current phase imbalance function signals a warning when the current in a phase differs more than the

The current phase imbalance protection signals a fault when the current in a phase differs more than the

Motor Protection with Thermistor (PTC) acc. to EN 60947-8 (type A sensors)

PTC thermistors are semiconductor elements with a very high positive temperature coefficient. They are
embedded directly in the phase windings of the stator. In contrast to the thermal overload protection that
responds to the load current, the thermistor protection responds to the change in thermistor resistance
due to temperature change in the motor windings.
The thermistors are selected to have a rated operating temperature that corresponds to the insulation
class, type and construction of the motor. At the rated temperature the thermistor resistance increases
sharply up to the hot temperature resistance value.
The UMC senses this abrupt change in the resistance. When thermistor protection is activated there is
also an internal supervision which detects open or short-circuit faults from the thermistor circuit.

Earth Fault Protection with CEM11

The earth fault protection function protects the motor and the network against ground current flow. During
an earth fault, the motors can reach a dangerous potential above the ground level thus posing a safety
hazard to personnel. The earth faults are mainly caused due to ageing of the insulation, deterioration of
insulation due to sustained or cyclic overloading, moisture or conductive dust. The monitoring of the earth
fault is carried out with the help of the auxiliary device CEM11. The CEM11 device monitors if the sum of
the three phase currents is zero.
Detection of such ground faults can be used to interrupt the motor to prevent further damage, or to alert
the maintenance personnel to perform timely maintenance.
The CEM11 can be connected to one of the multifunction inputs of the UMC. The earth fault signal can be
optionally delayed. It is also possible to suppress the earth fault during the motor start-up phase.

with feed-through holes from 35mm to 120mm.
. Connect the CEM11 to one of the multifunction inputs DO0, DI1 or DI2 and 24V DC supply.
3. Configure the corresponding multifuncion input as earth fault input. You can select if the earth fault
supervision shall be suppressed during motor start or not.
4. Optionally a time can be configured to delay the creation of a fault or warning. It is adjustable from 0.1
to 25.5 s.
5. Configure the threshold when an earth fault should be signalled. The threshold can be set directly at
the earth fault monitor (CEM11) itself. See the CEM11 technical manual for further details.

Restart Time the UMC output relay does not open. The motor keeps running.
In case b) the voltage dip takes longer than the configured Auto Restart Time which means the UMC
switches off the relay output. The dip is shorter than configured with parameter 'Max. Voltage Dip Duration' so the motor gets started automatically after an optional restart delay time (Parameter 'Dip Autorestart
Enable=On).
In case c) the voltage dip takes longer than the Max. Voltage Dip Duration time. Therefore an error is generated as soon as the dip duration exceeds the allowed dip duration time.

DCS/PLC: Commands are transferred via cyclic communication telegrams from the process controller via fieldbus to the UMC. The UMC uses the PNO motor starter profile which defines the meaning of
each bit in the cyclic telegrams. See section XXX for further details.
LCD-Panel: Allows control via the buttons of the UMC-PAN usually mounted in the switchgear cabinet
door
Service Tool: Allows control commands to be issued via acyclic communication services of the used
fieldbus. The UMC DTM uses this communication channel for example.
For each control station you can configure if a start and/or a stop command is accepted by the UMC.

Modes
In practise it is often required to release or block start/stop commands from a control station depending
on various reasons e.g.
If the communication to the bus master is interrupted you want to automatically enable control via digital
inputs which would not be possible if the communication is ok
For service purposes all commands from the bus should be ignored

UMC100-FBP
Technical Description

V6

Therefore the UMC enables start/stop commands to be individually released or blocked from a control
station depending on modes. Three different modes are available named by their typical usage:

Mode

Default Behaviour

Auto (Remote) In this operation mode the UMC accepts start commands from the DCS/PLC. To
activate this control mode the "Auto Mode Bit" in the cyclic communication telegram must be set to logic one. No start commands from other control sources are
accepted in this mode.
Local 1

In this mode the motor is controlled locally at the motor or the motor control room.
Start commands are accepted from the digital inputs or the LCD control panel. This
mode is active in the following cases:
If the "Auto Mode Bit in the cyclic bus telegram is not set i.e. the PLC/DCS has
enabled local control.
If the LCD panel is used to control the motor locally. As soon as the menu point
"Motor Control" is entered and the UMC signals local control
If the UMC detects a bus fault

Local 2

Is a second local control mode that can be activated via one of the multifunction inputs even if another mode is active. This allows local control to be enforced via digital inputs without involvement of the PLC/DCS (i.e. the "Auto Mode Bit" is ignored).

How to set the mode:

There are three relevant signals that determine which mode is active:
Bus fault: The UMC has detected a bus fault (i.e. the cyclic bus master is missing)
Force Local 2: A multifunction input signals that the local 2 mode shall be activated
Autobit: With bit 5 in byte 0 of the cyclic command telegram, the PLC/DCS signals that the auto mode
shall be activated and control shall happen via bus (according to PNO motor management profile).
The following table shows the activated operation mode depending on these inputs. There is always
one mode selected even if more than one input is active. The bus fault signal has the highest priority
followed by the force local 2 signal. The autobit has lowest priority.
Bus fault (e.g. no sign of life from master)

The following requirements shall be fulfilled:
Switch S1 has the following positions: Remote/Local/Test Position/Off.
(Req. 1) If the switch is in position Local the UMC can only be controlled locally (digital inputs and LCD)
but not started via bus. But it shall be possible to stop the motor also via bus.
(Req. 2) In position Auto the DCS can control the UMC. Locally only a stop command can be issued.
(Req. 3) In position Off the motor cannot be started at all
(Req. 4) Position Test is for commissioning purposes and switches the UMC in simulation mode.
(Req. 5) If there is a bus fault the UMC shall automatically go into local mode and allows starting/stopping via the LCD panel and the digital inputs (as in position Local).

From the requirements you can see that the three control places Digital Inputs, Fieldbus and LCD are
used. Furthermore start/stop commands from the different control places shall be blocked or released
depending on the Fieldbus and S1 status. Therefore the different modes can be used.
To read in the S1 commands the three multifunction inputs DI0, DI1 and DI2 are used.
Their configuration is as follows:
Multifunction In 0 = Force Local (NO): This input activates local 2 mode if the user wants to ensure that
the DCS cannot control the motor (Req 1)
Multifunction In 1 = Test Position (NO): This input activates simulation (Req. 4)
Multifunction In 2 = Stop: Stop (NO) is dominant and no start is permitted if the input is active (Req. 3)
For the Remote position no input is needed, because if the UMC is not in local mode, it is automatically in
Auto mode
Finally it is necessary to configure from which control places the motor can be started in the different

Technical Description
Activating Inching Mode
By default "pulses" are used to issue a start command. This means that a start input has to change its
logic level to issue a start command - i.e. it is edge triggered. After the start command was accepted from
the UMC the input signal can be set back to its initial value (e.g. zero).
For a start signal sent from the digital inputs (DI4/DI5) it is possible to change the behaviour from pulse
mode to inching mode. This means that the motor is only running while the start signal is present. If it is
not present anymore the motor stops automatically.

Relevant Parameters:
For each of the three modes Local Control 1 (Loc1), Local Control 2 (Loc2) and Auto (Auto) the following
parameters are available
- Start bus cyclic

Emergency Start
In some special cases a motor must be started even if the thermal overload protection would prevent the
start (i.e. cooling time is still running). To allow the start in such situations the thermal memory of the UMC
can be reset to cold state. This enables an immediate restart even after a thermal overload trip.
There are two possibilities for an emergency start:
Using the multifunction inputs DI0, DI1 or DI2 an emergency start is carried out as follows:
1. Parameterise DI0, DI1 or DI2 as emergency start input
. Switch the signal on the parameterised input to 1:
- 0 -> 1 transition to reset the UMC100 thermal memory to "cold motor"
- Continuous 1-signal to ignore fault signals on multi-function inputs (if parameterised as fault inputs)
- Switch on motor
To perform an emergency start from the control system / fieldbus, the following steps must be carried out:
1. Set Parameter Emergency = On (default is Off)
. Send command PREPARE EMERGENCY START 0->1 transition via fieldbus to reset the UMC100
thermal memory to cold motor. A continuous 1-signal ignores fault signals originating from the multifunction inputs (if parametrized as fault inputs)
3. Switch on motor

Caution: Starting a hot motor can cause motor damage or destruction of the motor.

- Emergency Start
- Multifunction 0,1,2

Technical Description
Checkback Monitoring
The UMC can be parameterised to monitor that the motor was really started using a checkback signal. By
default the actual motor current is monitored. But it is also possible to use an auxiliary contact mounted
on the main contactor.
If checkback monitoring via motor current is active it is checked that the measured current rose above
20 % within the Checkback Delay Time (tcbd) after switching on the main contactor. Otherwise when the
motor is switched off the function checks that the motor current is zero at the latest after the Checkback
Delay Time.
For checkback via contactors one or more auxiliary contacts must be installed and wired to the UMC's
digital input DI0. The number of monitored signals depends on the selected control functions which are
described in the following sections.

Using the Digital UMC Inputs

The UMC inputs DI0 ... DI5 are digital inputs according to IEC61131. They can be used to connect status
and control signals to the UMC. UMC's reaction to these signals can be adapted in a wide range to cover
typical user needs (e.g. starting the motor). The status of each digital input is available in the monitoring
telegram sent to the PLC/DCS.
Using the Inputs DI3-DI5
The inputs DI3 to DI5 can be used for local motor control. DI5 is always the stop input whereas DI4 starts
the motor in a forward direction and DI3 in a reverse direction (if supported by the active control function).
If inching mode is enabled the stop can still be used.

Using the Multifunction Inputs DI0-DI2

The digital inputs DI0, DI1 and DI2 are called multifunction inputs because their function can be adapted
flexibly depending to your application requirements. The following diagram shows the way the multifunction inputs work.
The three multifunction inputs operate fully independent - i.e. for each input an own delay time and function can be selected. Functions like 'test position', 'stop motor' etc. internally pass an OR gate so the
UMC does not differentiate from which digital input the signal came.
If an input is configured as fault input the behaviour is different. For each input its own internal error signal
is available and a fault text can be specified which is displayed on the LCD panel in the event of this error.
You can thus find out what input actually triggered the fault. Faults can be auto acknowledged when the
fault has been rectified.

To realize this function the multifunction input can be parameterised in the following way:
Set the delay time to 4s
Set the function to "Fault when motor is running"
Define a meaningful message e.g. "Dry run"
If the pressure switch does not monitor "pressure present" within 4s (or when the pressure signal disappears for more than 4s during operation) the internal fault signal is set and the motor is stopped. The error
message "Dry run" appears as a fault message.

A second example on how to use the multifunction inputs is shown in section "Starting and Stopping the Motor".

Control Function Transparent

The UMC100 parametrised with the control function 'Transparent' behaves like an I/O module with an
integrated overload check. The outputs DO0 ... DO3 and the inputs DI0 ... DI5 are directly connected to
the fieldbus and are independent of the overload status.
If a fault output (DO2 or DO3) is activated by configuration the relevant output cannot be controlled from
the fieldbus anymore but is controlled by the UMC itself.
The contactor k1 can be switched on and off for example using a standard maintaining circuit (not
shown).
Alternatively it can be switched on and off from the control system which uses one of the UMC relay outputs to control the motor. This option enables specific control logic to be implemented in the PLC.

Definitions and monitoring signals particular to the control functions Actuator 1,2,3 and 4
Input signals: Open and Closed inputs are active signals, torque input is a closed loop signal.
The two torque signals are connected in series. The discrete torque signal is created based on the previous direction of movement.
Remark:
If DI2 is not needed as fault input it can be connected to the link between the torque contacts to find out
which torque signal is active.
Run-time Open <-> Closed: The Run-time limit (= Star-delta starting time) must be changed and should
be set according to actuator data. Setting the Run-time limit = 1 s disables the supervision.
Starting from Open or Closed: The limit switch has to open within the start monitoring time of 3 s.
Exceeding the time results in the fault signal Open limit switch 1 -> 0 not occurring within 3 s after the
Closed command. The start monitoring time can be extended.
A faulty torque signal in the intermediate position sets the internal fault signal. The motor is stopped and
can be started again
- after fault reset via fieldbus or other - AND - only in the opposite direction (previous direction is blocked).
After starting the torque signal must disappear within 0.5 s. Otherwise the internal fault signal is set
again. A fault reset and start in the opposite direction can be repeated as often as desired.
If after powering up a torque signal (0-signal) is present and neither an Open nor a Closed signal is
present it is presumed that the torque occurred during closing. The motor can be started:
- after fault reset via fieldbus or other - AND - only in the Open direction

UMC100-FBP
Technical Description
6 Configuring the Fieldbus Communication
The UMC can be integrated into different fieldbus networks with the help of a FieldBusPlug.
FieldBbusPlugs exist presently for PROFIBUS (PDP22 / PDQ22), DeviceNet(DNP21), Modbus (MRP21)
and CANopen (COP21).
Since the fieldbuses and the various fieldbus master configuration tools are very different no common
integration procedure can be described here. In general the following generic steps are usually necessary:
1. Make the UMC known to the tool e.g. by importing the device description file (GSD, EDS)
. Create a network and insert nodes like the UMC as required
3. Set the UMC parameters according to your needs (if parameterisation from within the system is required)
4. Make the I/O signals available in your programming tool (e.g. a IEC61131 based tool)
To use the UMC in a fieldbus network the following parameters should be considered.

Setting the Bus Address

The bus address can be adjusted with the help of the UMC LCD panel. The UMC allows an address to be
set between 000 and 255. But there are different limitations depending on the fieldbus in use. Setting the
address to 255 means that the UMC will take over the address from a connected FieldBusPlug.
PROFIBUS: Use addresses from 2 ...125 only.
DeviceNet: 2-64
Modbus: With the bus address you also select the baud rate used by the MRP21 FieldBusPlug.
Check the MRP21 manual about the available options.
CANopen: 1-127
Ensure that the chosen bus address is not used twice. If an address is used twice the
whole bus line might go out of operation.
Related Parameter: Bus Address

Address Check when using UMC in Motor Control Centres

If the UMC is used in MCCs the address check can be enabled. This ensures that the bus address in the
FieldBusPlug and the UMC must match before the bus communication can start. This ensures that in the
event of an unintentional permutation of a drawer the bus address stays in place and does not move with
the drawer.
A precondition for this function is the separation of FieldBusPlug and UMC. In MCCs the FieldBusPlug is
usually mounted in the cable chamber whereas the UMC is mounted in the withdrawable unit. This means
that even if the withdrawable is removed the FieldBusPlug stays active, keeps the bus address and can
send an error message (missing device) to the control system.
The following cases can occur:
1. Neither the UMC100 nor the FieldBusPlug contains a valid address: The UMC does not start to communicate.
. Only the UMC100 contains a valid address: The FieldBusPlug receives the address and saves it. Then
the bus communication starts automatically.
3. Only the FieldBusPlug contains a valid address (e.g. a new spare UMC is connected) The UMC gets
the address from the FieldBusPlug and saves it. Then the communication starts.
4. The UMC100-FBP and the FieldBusPlug contain the same address: Operation and communication
starts.
5. The UMC100-FBP and the FieldBusPlug contain different addresses (e.g. unintentional permutation
when installing a drawer): The behaviour of the UMC100-FBP depends on the setting of the parameter
Address check.
Case 5a: Address check = Off (= 0) (default)

The FieldBusPlug stores the address received from the UMC100 and communication starts.
Case 5b: Address check = On (1)
- The communication does not start. In the LCD control panel an address fault is displayed

- To start the bus communication the correct address must be selected in the UMC100
- Enter the fault menu with the left hot-key (Addr)

- Click "Fix" (right hot-key) to select the correct bus address

- After saving the correct bus address the communication starts immediately
- Both the FieldBusPlug and the UMC100-FBP store the adjusted address.

Related Parameter: Address Check

Defining the Bus Fault Reaction

Depending on the application the UMC is used in you might configure the reaction to a bus fault in a different way. The bus fault reaction can be set the following way:
Retain the present state (either running or stopped)
Stop the motor immediately
Start the motor in a forward direction (if actually in stop mode). If it is already running in a reverse or a
forward direction the motor keeps running.
Start the motor in a reverse direction (if actually in stop mode). If it is already running in a reverse or a
forward direction the motor keeps running.
Relevant parameter: Bus Fault Reaction

Ignore Block Parameters

Block parameters can be used to parameterise a device from within the PROFIBUS master using the GSD
file. The PROFIBUS master then sends the parameters in one block (this where the name came from) to
the device. The block parameters are sent under certain conditions:
Bus master start-up
Device start-up
During normal operation in case of parameter changes
If the UMC shall be parameterized via LCD panel or using the PBDTM the block parameters should not be
sent. As it is not possible to stop the bus master from sending the block parameters the FieldBusPlug can
be configured to stop forwarding these parameters to the UMC (i.e. ignore them). To do so set parameter
"Ignore Block Parameter" to "Ignore".

UMC100-FBP
Technical Description
A typical customer error message if this parameter was not set is as follows: "We set up
everything correctly and the plant worked for weeks without problems. But then suddenly the UMC lost its parameters."
What happened: The UMC was configured e.g. via LCD panel during commissioning.
Then weeks later the bus master or controller was restarted for whatever reason and
therefore sent the default UMC block parameters as they were never set.
If you are unsure if the parameter was set correctly you can also lock the parameters
in the UMC. Then no parameter changes are possible anymore until the lock is reset. If
locked the small "lock" icon

is set in the LCD display.

Relevant parameter:
Ignore Block Parameters.

7 Using Expansion Modules
In this chapter you learn how to use the UMC expansion modules. Expansion modules allow you to
increase the number of usable inputs and outputs. For information on how to connect the IO modules to
the UMC read the Installation chapter. The IO module's status messages are described in the chapter '
Error Handling, Maintenance and Service'.
Activating a Digital IO Module (DX111/122)
To activate a digital IO module set parameter DX1xx Enabled to On. If a module is enabled the UMC
monitors the presence of the module and creates by default a fault in the event that the module is missing
(-> parameter 'Missing Module Reaction').
Using the Digital Inputs
By default all eight digital inputs are available in the fieldbus monitoring telegram. They can thus be directly used in the PLC/DCS application.
For inputs 1DI0 to 1DI5 the following additional options exist:
Each input can separately trigger a fault or warning with a unique error code and error message that is
shown on the UMC's LCD panel.
A fault can be automatically cleared when the cause of the fault is rectified.
Each input can optionally be delayed. (see parameter DX1xx DI delay for details)
The following figure shows the internal data flow of the inputs 1DI0 - 1DI5.

Functionality of the six digital inputs 1DI0 - 1DI5 of the DX111 and DX122 modules.

Using the Relay Outputs

The 4 relay outputs are connected to the fieldbus command telegram and can be freely used by the control system. By default they are not used by the UMC in any way. See the fieldbus command telegram for
the relevant bit positions.
The inputs and outputs of the modules DX122 and DX111 can be freely used in the Custom Application Editor. Consult the editor's manual if you plan to use the inputs or outputs
directly in the UMC.
Using the Analogue Output
The The analogue output can be used to drive an analogue instrument to e.g. display the motor current. It
can work in the following modes: 4-20mA, 0-20mA, 0-10V

Within this chapter you will find the following information
Error handling of the UMC
Detailed explanation of all error and diagnosis messages
Functions related to maintenance and service

Error Handling of the UMC

When the UMC detects a fault condition the fault becomes latched. Once a fault becomes latched, it
remains latched - even if the underlying fault condition is eliminated - until acknowledged by a fault reset
command.
Automatic Reset of Protection Faults
The setting of the "Fault autoreset" parameter determines how the UMC manages protection trips.
Off (the default setting): A protection trip must be acknowledged by the user. This can be done via LCD
panel, fieldbus or the multifunction inputs DI0-DI2 if configured.
On: A protection trip is automatically acknowledged without intervention of either a human operator or
the remote PLC if the trip condition has gone (e.g. cooling time over).

Fault History
The DTM provides access to the fault history. The last 16 faults and their arrival time in seconds since
power on are displayed. If the UMC is switched off the fault history is cleared.

UMC100 Fault Indication

The UMC offers the following possibilities for indicating a fault.
Fault indication via digital outputs: The outputs DO2 and DO3 can be used to signal a summary fault.
DO2 is a relay output that uses the same supply as DO0 and DO1. DO3 is a 24VDC output and can be
used to drive a signal lamp as an example. The fault outputs can be configured with the parameter Fault
Outputs.
Fault indication via LEDs on the UMC: The red fault LED is switched on in the event of a fault and remains on until the fault is acknowledged.
Fault messages on the LCD panel: See the table below.
Signalling via fieldbus: In the event of a fault the "Fault Bit" in the cyclic communication telegram is
set to logical-1. Furthermore a diagnosis telegram (if supported by the used fieldbus) is generated that
describes the fault details.

Fault Messages
The following table lists all diagnosis and fault messages and potential root causes for the fault. It gives
you a first indication of where to look for a fault and how to fix it.

Resetting Parameters to Factory Defaults

It is possible to reset all parameters to the factory default settings. The fieldbus address is not affected
from the reset command. Also the different maintenance counters are not affected but must be resetted
manually at the UMC100-PAN.
The reset command can be activated via:
UMC100-PAN

Resetting the Password

The password can always be set or disabled using the UMC100 DTM (PBDTM) or using the UMC100PAN.

Reading and Resetting Maintenance Counters

Preventive maintenance is the best way to ensure the long service life of any equipment.
The UMC provides several counters which help to better plan maintenance activities or to track down an
existing problem.
Number of motor starts can help to identify worn-out power contacts or to determine on contactor wear
Number of protection trips
Motor operation hours can help to assess the bearing status and its lubrication
The maintenance counters are available at the UMC100-PAN and in the PBDTM.

Replacing a UMC100
The UMC and the current transformer are calibrated together in the ABB factory. Therefore the UMC must
be completely replaced.
The UMC can be disconnected from the FieldbusPlug without disturbing the fieldbus communication and
the other slaves. The FieldbusPlug is supplied via the voltage conducted together with the bus lines. The
FieldbusPlug keeps the actual slave address and informs the control system that the connected device is
disconnected.
Set the parameters in the new UMC depending on your parameterisation concepts.
After mounting and connecting a new UMC, the communication starts up again.

Replacing a DX1xx IO Module

DX1xx modules are automatically parameterized by the UMC if the communication between UMC and IO
module has been established. No further user actions are required.

Requesting Support
If you need support we kindly ask you to contact your local ABB representative using the template provided at the end of this manual.

Technical Description
Accessing Data on PROFIBUS
On PROFIBUS the device parameters, monitoring data and the command data size is described in the
GSD file and mapped to the data telegrams cyclically exchanged between the PROFIBUS master and
the UMC. The diagnosis data is transferred if needed via the extended PROFIBUS diagnosis also described in the GSD file. Device parameters are transferred in one block during bus start or UMC start from
the PROFIBUS master to the UMC. See also the sections "Configuring the Fieldbus Configuration" and
"Commissioning->Configuration from within the control system".

Accessing Data on Modbus

On Modbus the data is provided in so-called registers. A Modbus master can read and write data on
these registers. UMC data is accessible on the following registers:

(Modbus plug) technical manual.

Accessing Data on DeviceNet

On DeviceNet the device parameters, monitoring data and the command data size is described in the
EDS file. Monitoring, command and diagnosis data is mapped to the data telegrams which are cyclically
exchanged between the DeviceNet master and the UMC. For more information about device parameterisation in DeviceNet networks please refer to the DNP21-FBP (DeviceNet plug) technical manual.

Accessing Data on CANopen

On CANopen the device parameters, monitoring data and the command data size is described in the
CANopen EDS file.
By default
command data is mapped to RPDO1 for binary data and RPDO3 for analogue data.
monitoring data is mapped to TPDO1 for binary byte 0 and 1
analogue monitoring data words 1-5 are mapped to TPDO3/4 . In addition the remaining binary data
(byte 12 - 15) are mapped to TPDO4 too!
Parameters can be set/read using SDO (Service Data Object) communication.
