2.3 Product identification
The basic technical data of the inverter are included in the product code, data plate and on DataMatrix code.
In addition, the firmware version, the application version and other information such as the power board version and
serial number and the control board serial number can be read in the dedicated parameters of the DRIVE INFO menu.

The inverter must be selected according to the rated current of the motor.
The rated output current of the drive must be higher than or equal to the rated current of the motor used.
The speed of the asynchronous motor depends on the number of pole pairs and frequency (plate and catalog data).
If using a motor at speeds above the rated speed, contact the motor manufacturer for any related mechanical problems
(bearings, unbalance, etc.). The same applies in case of continuous operation at frequencies of less than approx. 20 Hz
(inadequate cooling, unless the motor is provided with forced ventilation).

3 - Transport and storage

Correct transport, storage, erection and mounting, as well as careful operation and maintenance are essential for
proper and safe operation of the equipment.
Caution Protect the inverter against physical shocks and vibration during transport and storage. Also be sure to protect it
against water (rainfall) and excessive temperatures.
Le bon accomplissement des opérations de transport, de stockage, d’installation et de montage, ainsi que
l’exploitation et l’entretien minutieux, sont essentiels pour garantir à l’appareil un fonctionnement adéquat et sûr.
Protéger le variateur contre les chocs et les vibrations pendant le transport et le stockage. Il faut également s’assurer
qu’il est protégé contre l’eau (pluie), l’humidité et contre des températures excessives.

If the Drives have been stored for longer than two years, the operation of the DC link capacitors may be impaired
and must be “reformed”. Before commissioning devices that have been stored for long periods, connect them to a
power supply for two hours with no load connected in order to regenerate the capacitors, (the input voltage has to be
applied without enabling the drive).
En cas de stockage des variateurs pendant plus de deux ans, il est conseillé de contrôler l’état des condensateurs
CC avant d’en effectuer le branchement. Avant la mise en service des appareils, ayant été stockés pendant long
temps, il faut alimenter variateurs à vide pendant deux heures, pour régénérer les condensateurs : appliquer une
tension d’alimentation sans actionner le variateur.

3.1 General
A high degree of care is taken in packing the ADL Drives and preparing them for delivery. They should only be
transported with suitable transport equipment (see weight data). Observe the instructions printed on the packaging.
This also applieswhen the device is unpacked and installed in the control cabinet.

Upon delivery, check the following:

- the packaging for any external damage
- whether the delivery note matches your order.

Open the packaging with suitable tools. Check whether:

- any parts were damaged during transport
- the device type corresponds to your order

In the event of any damage or of an incomplete or incorrect delivery please notify the responsible sales offices
immediately. The devices should only be stored in dry rooms within the specified temperature ranges.

Note! A certain degree of moisture condensation is permissible if this arises from changes in temperature. This does not, however, apply when the devices are in
operation. Always ensure that there is no moisture condensation in devices that are connected to the power supply!

(*) ADL500 can only operate on IT networks devoid of any faults (between active parts and PE) or in the presence of
temporary faults.
Therefore an insulation monitor MUST be used to detect and enable prompt removal of any fault condition.

Insulation monitor
Since the ADL500 drive is normally used in a ground-insulated system (IT), in accordance with IEC 61557-8, use of
insulation resistance monitoring is required.
The monitoring system must be able to detect insulation loss, both on the AC and DC power supply sides and on the
motor side.
A ground fault must be promptly detected and removed as quickly as possible to avoid damage to either the inverter
or the entire system as a unit (in the event of insulation loss, the drive must be immediately disabled and disconnected
from power sources).
The insulation monitor must be selected on a case-by-case basis according to the power supply, connection system
and type of drive.
Recommended insulation monitors e.g.: see the BENDER © ISOMETER® line.

The insulation monitor must be plugged into the main power supply (if ADL500 is AC powered) or the DC side (if
ADL300 is DC-powered).

Attention The insulation monitor alarm threshold should be set to the highest possible resistance value.

5.2 Input chokes

In accordance with EN 12015 (THD values < 35%), provide DC input inductance (see paragraph 5.2.1).
The AC input chokes are strongly recommended in order to:
- limit the RMS input current of the ADL500 inverter.
- increase the life of intermediate circuit capacitors and reliability of input diodes.
- reduce mains harmonic content
- reduce problems due to power supply via a low impedance line (≤ 1%).

 5.3 AC output chokes
The ADL500 inverter can be used with standard motors or motors designed specifically for use with inverters.
The latter usually have a higher isolation rating to better withstand PWM voltage Examples of reference regulations
are provided below: motors designed for use with inverters do not require any specific filtering of output from the
inverter. For standard motors, especially with long cable runs (typically over 100 m) an output choke may be necessary
to maintain the voltage waveform with the specified limits.

The range of recommended chokes are listed in the following table. The rated current of the chokes should be approx.
20% higher than that of the inverter in order to take into account additional losses due to modulation of the output
waveform.

 5.6 Ultracapacitor energy storage module
The ADL500 inverter can be connected to energy recovery systems with ultra-capacitor modules.
These modules store the energy lost by the lift during the motor braking stage and return it on the next travel, thus sav-
ing energy (the closer together the trips, the greater the savings) without harmonic distortion and no additional stand-by
consumption.

The system recommended by WEG is a high-efficiency bidirectional DC/DC converter that integrates the ultra-capacitor
energy storage module and connects it to the ADL500 inverter with a simple, two-wire connection.

 5.7 Emergency floor return battery (ADL5...-EMS)
Only for ADL510/530/550-...-EMS models (with integrated Emergency Mode Supply module).

In the event of a failure of the main power supply, the optional external battery pack powers the EMS circuit of ADL5...-
EMS drives so the cabin can return to the floor.
Under such emergency conditions, the lift can move for a short travel (i.e. to reach the next floor).

The connection diagram is described in "Figure 7.9.5: Emergency connection diagram with EMS module" on page 46.

Specifications
Battery voltage ������������������������ 48Vdc ...96Vdc (120Vdc considering an upper limit tolerance of 25%)
Rated battery current �������������������� equal to rated inverter current
Battery protection ���������������������� the EMS circuit has an internal diode that protects the battery from the high DC LINK voltage.

Battery connection

- D tion" on page 28

Operating description
When the main input power supply fails, if the battery is connected and provides a voltage greater than 48Vdc, the DC/
DC converter is switched on (including the regulation board and all auxiliary circuitry for the gate drive, thermal sense,
current feedback, etc.) and the microprocessor receives the “BATTERY_ON” (battery connected) signal.
This signal does not provide any information about the battery charge.
If emergency input is not activated (dedicated digital input, PAR 11242), the precharge relay remains open because the
DC_LINK is below the minimum voltage threshold; no alarm is signalled until PWM is enabled.
Before enabling the emergency input, the main contactor K1M must open (to prevent unexpected reset of the main
power supply which could damage the drive). A delay must be arranged to consider contactor K1M opening time before
any further action can be taken (e.g. by providing an interlock between the main contactor and the emergency contac-
tor KE so that the latter can only be enabled if K1M has opened).
Under normal and emergency operations, the KE contactor can remain closed and only be opened to switch off the
system, thus saving the batteries after the emergency operation is completed.
To enable motor movement, the digital input must be activated to emergency mode (previously set through parameter
11242).
After selecting the emergency state, the undervoltage condition is eliminated and the precharge relay is closed. The
unit is ready to operate and the lift can move to the evacuation floor.
After the lift has completed its travel (PWM OFF) and the external brake has been disabled (PAR 11242), emergency
input must be disabled. Disabling the emergency input opens the precharge relay in about 200 ms and only afterwards
the K1M contactor can be closed. Therefore, a minimum delay of 200 ms is mandatory from disabling the emergency
digital input to connection of the main power supply to the contactor K1M.
When power is restored, the precharge relay is closed, the DC/DC converter is switched on and the drive is ready.
Under such conditions, the drive and lift system can operate normally.
The main power supply may be reinstated during the emergency trip: this will not damage the drive as the main contac-
tor K1M must be kept open until the emergency trip has been terminated.

Note ! The battery can always be connected to the drive (KE always closed).
Arrange for external battery charge monitoring and for an external charger; under this condition, the battery will sup-
ply a small amount of power to the drive.
An alternative is to close the KE only when emergency mode is selected.
In any case, battery monitoring and charger must be supplied externally.

6 - Mechanical installation

The Drive must be mounted on a wall that is constructed of heat resistant material. While the Drive is operating, the
temperature of the Drive’s cooling fins can rise to a temperature of 158° F (70°C).
Caution Le drive doit être monté sur un mur construit avec des matériaux résistants à la chaleur. Pendant le fonctionnement
du drive, la température des ailettes du dissipateur thermique peut arriver à 70°C (158° F).

Because the ambient temperature greatly affects Drive life and reliability, do not install the Drive in any location that
exceeds the allowable temperature.
Étant donné que la température ambiante influe sur la vie et la fiabilité du drive, on ne devrait pasinstaller le drive
dans des places ou la temperature permise est dépassée.

Be sure to remove the desicant dryer packet(s) when unpacking the Drive. (If not removed these packets may
become lodged in the fan or air passages and cause the Drive to overheat).
Lors du déballage du drive, retirer le sachet déshydraté. (Si celui-ci n’est pas retiré, il empêche la ventilation et
provoque une surchauffe du drive).

Protect the device from impermissible environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, shock etc.).

7 - Wiring Procedure

Adjustable frequency ADL500 drives are electrical apparatus for use in for civil lifting installations. Parts of the
Drives are energized during operation. The electrical installation and the opening of the device should therefore
Warning! only be carried out by qualified personnel. Improper installation of motors or Drives may therefore cause the failure
of the device as well as serious injury to persons or material damage. Drive is not equipped with motor overspeed
protection logic other than that controlled by software. Follow the instructions given in this manual and observe the
local and national safety regulations applicable.
Les drives à fréquence variable ADL500 sont des dispositifs électriques utilisés dans des installations de levage
civiles. Une partie des drives sont sous tension pendant l’operation. L’installation électrique et l’ouverture des
drives devrait être executé uniquement par du personel qualifié. De mauvaises installations de moteurs ou de drives
peuvent provoquer des dommages materiels ou blesser des personnes. On doit suivir les instructions donneés dans
ce manuel et observer les régles nationales de sécurité.

Replace all covers before applying power to the Drive. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
Remettre tous les capots avant de mettre sous tension le drive. Des erreurs peuvent provoquer de sérieux accidents
ou même la mort.

The drive must always be grounded. If the drive is not connected correctly to ground, extremely hazardous conditions
may be generated that may result in death or serious injury.
Warning! Le drive doit toujours être raccordé au système de mise à la terre. Un mauvais raccordement du drive au système de
mise à la terre peut se traduire par des conditions extrêmement dangereuses susceptibles d’entraîner le décès ou de
graves lésions corporelles.

Never open the device or covers while the AC Input power supply is switched on. Minimum time to wait before working on
the terminals or inside the device is listed in section "4.7 Voltage level of the inverter for safe operations" on page 16.
Ne jamais ouvrir l’appareil lorsqu’il est suns tension. Le temps minimum d’attente avant de pouvoir travailler sur
les bornes ou bien à l’intérieur de l’appareil est indiqué dans la section "4.7 Voltage level of the inverter for safe
operations" on page 16.

Do not touch or damage any components when handling the device. The changing of the isolation gaps or the
removing of the isolation and covers is not permissible.
Manipuler l’appareil de façon à ne pas toucher ou endommager des parties. Il n’est pas permis de changer les
distances d’isolement ou bien d’enlever des matériaux isolants ou des capots.

Do not connect power supply voltage that exceeds the standard specification voltage fluctuation permissible. If
excessive voltage is applied to the Drive, damage to the internal components will result.
Caution Ne pas raccorder de tension d’alimentation dépassant la fluctuation de tension permise par les normes. Dans le cas
d’ une alimentation en tension excessive, des composants internes peuvent être endommagés.

Operation with Residual Current Device (Differential switch)

When a residual current device (RCD) is used for protection against electric shock, only a type B RCD is allowed on
the supply side of this product. All upstream RCDs, up to the power transformer, must be type B. This device must
have a high leakage current (≥ 300 mA).

RCD: Residual Current Device

RCCB: Residual Current Circuit Breaker
ELCB: Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker

Note: The residual current operated circuit-breakers used must provide protection against direct-current components in the fault current and must be suitable for
briefly suppressing power pulse current peaks. It is recommended to protect the frequency inverter by fuse separately.
The regulations of the individual country (e.g. VDE regulations in Germany) and the regional power suppliers must be observed!

Les RCD utilisés doivent assurer la protection contre les composants à courant continu présents dans le courant de défaut et doivent être capables de
supprimer des crêtes de courant en peu de temps. Il est recommandé de protéger séparément l’onduleur au moyen de fusibles.
Respecter la réglementation des pays concernés (par exemple, les normes VDR en Allemagne) et des fournisseurs locaux d’énergie électrique.

ADL500 • Quick installation guide - Specifications and connection 25

 Functioning of the Drive without a ground connection is not permitted. To avoid disturbances, the armature of the
motor must be grounded using a separate ground connector from those of other appliances.
Caution Défense de faire fonctionner le drive sans qu’il y ait eu raccordement de mise à la terre préalable. Pour éviter les
perturbations, la carcasse du moteur doit être mise à la terre à l’aide d’un raccord de mise à la masse séparé de ceux
des autres appareils.

The grounding connector shall be sized in accordance with regulations and national electrical codes (NEC) of
reference. For applications according to North American standards, the connection shall be made by a UL listed or
CSA certified closed-loop terminal connector sized for the wire gauge involved. The connector is to be fixed using the
crimp tool specified by the connector manufacturer.
Le connecteur de mise à la terre doit être dimensionné conformément aux réglementations et aux codes électriques
nationaux (NEC) de référence. Pour les applications conformes aux normes nord-américaines, le raccordement
devrait être fait par un connecteur certifié et mentionné à boucle fermé par les normes CSA et UL et dimensionné
pour l’épaisseur du cable correspondant. Le connecteur doit êtrefixé a l’aide d’un instrument de serrage specifié par
le producteur du connecteur.

Do not perform a megger test between the Drive terminals or on the control circuit terminals.
Ne pas exécuter un test megger entre les bornes du drive ou entre les bornes du circuit de contrôle.

No voltage should be connected to the output of the drive (terminals U2, V2 W2). The parallel connection of several
drives via the outputs and the direct connection of the inputs and outputs (bypass) are not permissible.
Aucune tension ne doit être appliquée sur la sortie du convertisseur (bornes U2, V2 et W2). Il n’est pas permis de
raccorder la sortie de plusieurs convertisseurs en parallèle, ni d’effectuer une connexion directede l’entrée avec la
sortie du convertisseur (Bypass).

The electrical commissioning should only be carried out by qualified personnel, who are also responsible for the
provision of a suitable ground connection and a protected power supply feeder in accordance with the local and
national regulations. The motor must be protected against overloads.
La mise en service électrique doit être effectuée par un personnel qualifié. Ce dernier est responsable del’existence
d’une connexion de terre adéquate et d’une protection des câbles d’alimentation selon les prescriptions locales et
nationales. Le moteur doit être protégé contre la surcharge

If the Drives have been stored for longer than two years, the operation of the DC link capacitors may be impaired
and must be “reformed”. Before commissioning devices that have been stored for long periods, connect them to a
power supply for two hours with no load connected in order to regenerate the capacitors, (the input voltage has to be
applied without enabling the drive).
En cas de stockage des variateurs pendant plus de deux ans, il est conseillé de contrôler l’état des condensateurs
CC avant d’en effectuer le branchement. Avant la mise en service des appareils, ayant été stockés pendant long
temps, il faut alimenter variateurs à vide pendant deux heures, pour régénérer les condensateurs : appliquer une
tension d’alimentation sans actionner le variateur.

 7.2.4 EMC guide line

In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio inference, in which case supplementary mitigation meas-
ures may be required.
Warning!

The converters are protected in order to be used in industrial environments where, for immunity purposes, large
amounts of electromagnetic interference can occur. Proper installation practices will ensure safe and trouble-free
Attention operation. If you encounter problems, follow the guidelines which follow.
- Check for all equipment in the cabinet are well grounded using short, thick grounding cable connected to a
common star point or busbar. Better solution is to use a conductive mounting plane and use that as EMC ground
reference plane.
- Flat conductors, for EMC grounding, are better than other type because they have lower impedance at higher
frequencies.
- Make sure that any control equipment (such as a PLC) connected to the inverter is connected to the same EMC
ground or star point as the inverter via a short thick link.
- Connect the return ground from the motors controlled by the drives directly to the ground connection ( ) on the
associated inverter.
- Separate the control cables from the power cables as much as possible, using separate trunking, if necessary at
90º to each other.
- Whenever possible, use screened leads for the connections to the control circuitry
- Ensure that the contactors in the cubicle are suppressed, either with R-C suppressors for AC contactors or
‘flywheel’ diodes for DC contactors fitted to the coils. Varistor suppressors are also effective. This is important when
the contactors are controlled from the inverter relay.
- Use screened or armored cables for the motor connections and ground the screen at both ends using the cable
clamps.
- Use power shield kit to connect shield of motor cable to drive.

Note! For further information regarding electro-magnetic compatibility standards, according to Directive 2014/30/EU, conformity checks carried out on WEG
appliances, connection of filters and mains inductors, shielding of cables, ground connections, etc., consult the “Electro-magnetic compatibility guide”
(1S5E84) you can download from www.weg.net.

7.2.7 Connection of AC and DC chokes (optional)

(For three-phase ADL500 only). The drive can use both a three-phase choke on the AC power line and, for 1040 ...
2150 sizes only, a DC choke between terminals C1 and C.
Refer to chapter "5.2 Input chokes" on page 18 for the recommended connections.
If no DC choke is used on 1040 ... 2150 sizes, terminals C1 and C must be bridged.

If no DC choke is used, terminals C1 and C must be bridged (sizes 1-2).

Encoders provide motor speed and position feedback.

The regulation algorithms in the ADL500 drive are capable of controlling asynchronous and permanent magnet
synchronous (brushless) motors. With asynchronous motors the regulation algorithm may or may not use the speed
measurement obtained from the encoder reading. With brushless motors the regulation algorithm needs an encoder
that also allows the absolute motor position to be verified.

The ADL500 supports several encoder types.

The type of encoder that is connected must be selected via software: PAR 2132 Encoder mode (menu ENCODER).

Encoders must be fitted to the motor shaft using anti-backlash couplings. The best control is achieved with configura-
tions that have incremental sinusoidal channels.
For electrical connections always use good quality cables with shielded twisted pairs, according to the procedures and
specifications described in the following paragraphs.

The configuration parameters for each encoder can be found in the ENCODER.
In the event of an encoder malfunction the drive generates the Speed fbk back loss alarm and the cause of the mal-
function is shown in parameter 2172 SpdFbkLoss code.
If the encoder is not used by the regulation algorithm the drive still manages the encoder position reading but does not
generate an alarm in case of malfunctioning.

 7.3.3.1 Phasing

In order for the ADL500 Brushless regulation algorithm to function correctly, it is necessary to know the position of
the rotor with respect to the stator power phases. Therefore the 0° position provided by the absolute encoder must
be known with respect to the position of a motor pole and the encoder count direction must match the motor power
phases.
This is called phasing. Phasing can be performed manually, directly by means of the mechanical encoder assembly
position on the motor shaft and on the phases, or using the automatic procedures available in the drive.

Phasing must always be repeated whenever:

- the encoder assembly position is changed
- the phase sequence of the motor power supply connection is changed
- the encoder incremental signal connection is changed
- the encoder absolute signal connection is changed
- the value of the PAR 2008 Pole pairs parameter is changed
- the value of the PAR 2100 Encoder pulses parameter is changed
- the drive is replaced (alternatively, download parameters taken from previous drive)

There are two different procedures that can be launched by writing two different parameters:

• PAR 2190 Autophase rotation -> rotation phasing:

this procedure must be performed with the motor free to turn and with no load applied.

• PAR 2192 Autophase still -> static phasing:

this procedure must be performed with the motor still and brake applied.

Rotation phasing
This procedure is based on the possibility of moving the motor, by a maximum angle of two pole pairs, to find correct
encoder phasing, cross-check the available encoder and motor data and, if the encoder count direction does not match
the phase sequence of the motor power supply, correct it by automatically modifying PAR 2130 Encoder direction.

Note! In the case described above, a positive speed reference could generate a rotation in reverse with respect to that defined as positive for the encoder (usually
clockwise), while still ensuring good motor control.

The encoder direction defined as positive can be stored as the positive reference direction by inverting two motor
power phases and repeating the rotation phasing procedure.
If the procedure is terminated without any errors, code 0 is shown on the keypad, otherwise if any differences have
been detected that cannot be corrected by the drive, one of the codes listed in Autotune (phasing), see chapter 10.3
Messages, is shown.

Possible faults:
- faults in electric signals not detected with a "Speed fbk loss [22]" alarm
- error in the PAR 2008 Pole pairs parameter setting
- error in the PAR 2100 Encoder pulses parameter setting

Static phasing
Using this method, in which the motor cannot move, the encoder and motor data cannot be cross-checked to verify the
matching of parameters or count direction.
This condition must therefore be checked before launching the procedure.

7.4.1 Ethernet Configuration

Some familiarity and knowledge of IP networking topics is required to establish communication between the ADL500
and a PC.

Based on the Ethernet configuration, during start-up, the drive acquires an IP address which is retained until reboot.
Any change to the Ethernet configuration is applied when the drive is restarted.

The IP address is acquired based on the following configuration parameters:

Menu Parameter Description
NETWORK CONFIG 9608 IP Assignment IP address assignment method: static or DHCP based
NETWORK CONFIG 9556 IP Address set Valid only if static assignment is selected. Statically configured IP address
NETWORK CONFIG 9558 IP Netmask set Valid only if static assignment is selected. Statically configured IP netmask
NETWORK CONFIG 9560 IP Gateway set Valid only if static assignment is selected. Statically configured IP gateway

The following are read-only parameters:

Menu Parameter Description
DRIVE INFO 9562 IP address Current IP Address. IP address acquired by ADL500
DRIVE INFO 9600 MAC Address MAC Address

7.4.2 Point-to-point network topology

The PC is connected directly to the ADL500 drive.

If the ADL500 is configured in “DHCP” (IP parameterization, PAR 9608 set to “DHCP”), since no DCHP server is avail-
able in this topology, the ADL500 will acquire the local address 169.254.10.10.
Typically, PCs also implement a local connection protocol. Therefore, if the PC is configured to DHCP, it will acquire a
local link address (169.254.x.y), and be able to communicate with the ADL500.
Address acquisition may take up to 2 minutes. If the PC does not implement the local link protocol or does not acquire
a valid address, it can be configured with a static IP address compatible with the local link addresses:
- PC configured for static IP assignment;
- The PC IP address set to 169.254.x.y, with any value except 169.254.10.10, already assigned to ADL500;
- Set the PC IP netmask to 255.255.0.0.

The Windows PC network configuration guide is in the section below.

The ADL550 default IP assignment method is DHCP, so in this topology on first boot, the address 169.254.10.10 will be
acquired and the drive will be reachable from the PC at this address.

If the ADL500 is configured as “static” (PAR 9608 Ip Assignment set to “Static”), the ADL500 will be reachable at the
address configured in the IP Address set parameter (PAR 9556) in the network specified by the netmask in the IP

- PC configured for static IP assignment;
- The PC IP netmask set to the same value as the IP Netmask set, parameter, PAR 9558;
- The PC IP address set to the same network as the ADL500, with a different address.

For additional details on network configuration, see Appendix "A.3 Windows PC Network Configuration" on page 96.

7.5 CAN interface

Note! For terminal location see section "7.1 Location and identification of terminals and LEDs" on page 27.

CANopen is a communication profile for CAL-based industrial systems (refer to the CANopen CAL-Base
COMMUNICATION PROFILE for Industrial Systems; CiA Draft Standard 301 Version 4.2 Date 13 February 2002 by
CAN in Automation e. V.).
The ADL500 integrates the interface for connection to CAN networks and also implements the DS417 profile according
to CANopen 2.0.0 specifications (DS417 in preparation).
The CAN protocol (ISO 11898) used is CAN2.0A with 11-bit identifier. The integrated CANopen interface has been
developed as a Minimum Capability Device. Data are exchanged cyclically; the master reads the data made available
by the slaves and writes the reference data to the slaves.
The interface is provided with functional isolation (> 1 kV).
Connection is via the CAN connector and no power supply is required.

Terminal Name Function Cable cross-section

L CAN_L CAN_L bus line (low dominant)
0.2 ... 2.5 mm2
SH CAN_SHLD CAN shielding
AWG 26 ... 12
H CAN_H CAN_H bus line (high dominant)

LED Meaning

A shielded twin-pair (of the type described in the CANopen specifications) must be used for connection to the bus, and
must be laid separately from the power cables, at a distance of at least 20 cm. Cable shielding must be grounded at
the two ends. If the cable shielding is grounded at different points of the system, use equipotential connection cables to
reduce the current flow between the drive and the CANbus master.

Note!
As regards terminations: the first and last termination on the CAN network must have a 120 ohm resistor between pins L and H.
If the ADL500 drive is in one of these positions, the termination resistor can also be inserted using the jumper P5 on the regulation board can be turned (ON)
(the top cover must be removed, see section "A.1.1 - Installation" on page 90 or set parameter 4008 Can Terminator = 1 (CAN1) on 6.1 CONTROL COMM
menu.

 7.9.5 Connection diagram for emergency maneuver
Emergency maneuver with operator present for gearless or geared non self-braking motors.

This function allows the car to move when there is a power failure in order to bring it to the closest floor by gravity.
• This maneuver can be performed only when the drive is in emergency mode, which the control card indicates with
the “Emergency Mode” digital input.
• There must be a digital input ("Digital input Y" in the figure below) connected to a "Start emergency maneuver"
button on the control panel that will enable car movement. The input is configurable by the Brake release src
(PAR 11820).
• When the button is pushed the inverter opens the brake contactor via the Brake Contactor Relay output.
• The operator then pushes the button to move the car.
• With parameter 11822 Em max speed (Emergency manual max. speed) you can set maximum car (or motor)
speed during this maneuver. The speed can be expressed in m/s (for the car) or in rpm (for the motor).
• If the car reaches the maximum allowed speed, the drive locks the brake for a time T configurable by parameter
11824 Brake lock time, disabling use of the button (which will not release the brake even if pushed).
• As soon as emergency manual maneuver is resumed, the display automatically shows the current car speed (or
motor speed if set in rpm) and direction (Fwd or Rev) indicated by the positive or negative sign.

07 /07 PAR: 14242

Actual cabin speed
+ 0.5 m/s
Def: -

Since the direction of motor rotation vs. car direction depends on the mechanical arrangement of the motor in rela-
tion to the ropes and car, during installation, check what the positive and negative directions indicate and report
this on the specific emergency manoeuvre instructions (e.g. if the car is descending when the motor is moving, it
must be specified that the + sign means that the car is descending).
• This maneuver must be disabled in case of inspection.

The car will move (Brake Contactor = Open) only in the following conditions:
• Emergency Mode: ON (Contactor Closed)
• Brake release src: ON (Contactor Closed)
• Emergency Manual V: < Em max speed
• Contactor Lock Time = 0

This emergency manoeuvre, performed as outlined in chapter 5.12.1.6 of EN 81-20, requires that the other contactors - those
in series with the contactor actuated by the drive brake contactor output - be bypassed following the safety specifications given
Attention in that chapter and in chapter 5.11.2 (Electrical safety devices); if not, the brake power supply circuit will not close and the
brake cannot be opened electronically.

 7.10 Braking
There are various possible types of braking:
- Internal Braking Unit
- Injection of direct current from the Inverter into the motor (D.C. braking)

There are two essential differences between the two braking methods:
- A braking unit can be used for speed reduction (e.g.: from 1000 to 800 rpm), whereas D.C. braking can only be
usedfor braking to standstill.
- The energy in the drive is converted into heat in both cases. This conversion takes place in a braking resistor
encased in the braking unit. With D.C. braking, the energy is converted into heat in the motor itself, resulting in a
further rise in motor temperature.

7.10.1 Braking unit (internal)

Frequency-regulated asynchronous motors during hyper-synchronous or regenerative functioning behave as genera-
tors, recovering energy that flows through the inverter bridge, in the intermediate circuit as continuous current.
This leads to an increase in the intermediate circuit voltage.
Braking units (BU) are therefore used in order to prevent the DC voltage rising to an impermissible value. When used,
these activate a braking resistor that is connected in parallel to the capacitors of the intermediate circuit. The feedback
energy is converted to heat via the braking resistor (Rbr), thus providing very short deceleration times and restricted
four-quadrant operation.

In the standard configuration, ADL drives (≤ 55kW) comprise an internal braking unit.

Figure 7.10.1: Operation with braking unit (circuit diagram)

Note! When the internal braking unit is present the protection must consist of fast-acting fuses! Follow the relative assembly instructions.

A twisted or shielded cable must be used for the connection of the braking resistor (terminals BR and C or BR1 and
BR2). If the resistor includes a thermal protection device (Klixon), this must be connected to the "External fault" input of
the drive.

Adjustable frequency drives are electrical apparatus for use in industrial or civil installations. Parts of the Drives are energized
during operation. The electrical installation and the opening of the device should therefore only be carried out by qualified personnel.
Warning! Improper installation of motors or Drives may therefore cause the failure of the device as well as serious injury to persons or material
damage. Drive is not equipped with motor overspeed protection logic other than that controlled by software. Follow the instructions
given in this manual and observe the local and national safety regulations applicable.
Les drives à fréquence variable sont des dispositifs électriques utilisés dans des installations industriels ou civiles. Une partie des
drives sont sous tension pendant l’operation. L’installation électrique et l’ouverture des drives devrait être executé uniquement par du
personel qualifié. De mauvaises installations de moteurs ou de drives peuvent provoquer des dommages materiels ou blesser des
personnes. On doit suivir les instructions donneés dans ce manuel et observer les régles nationales de sécurité.

Always connect the Drive to the protective ground (PE) via the marked connection.
ADL500 Drives and AC Input filters have ground leakage currents greater than 3.5 mA. EN 61800-5-1 specifies that with leakage
currents greater than 3.5 mA the protective conductor ground connection ( ) must be fixed type and doubled for redundancy if its
section is lower than 10mm2 CU o 16mm2 AL.
Il faut toujours connecter le variateur à la terre (PE). Le courant de dispersion vers la terre est supérieur à 3,5 mA sur les variateurs
ADL500 et sur les filtres à courant alterné. Les normes EN 61800-5-1 spécifient qu’en cas de courant de dispersion vers la terre,
supérieur à 3,5 ma, la mise à la terre ( ) doit avoir une double connexion pour la redondance si sa section est inférieure à 10mm2 CU ou
16mm2 AL.

Only permanently-wired input power connections are allowed. This equipment must be grounded (IEC 536 Class 1, NEC and other
applicable standards).
If a Residual Current-operated protective Device (RCD) is to be used, it must be an RCD type B. Machines with a three phase power
supply, fitted with EMC filters, must not be connected to a supply via an ELCB (Earth Leakage Circuit-Breaker - see DIN VDE 0160).
The following terminals can carry dangerous voltages even if the inverter is inoperative:
- the power supply terminals L1, L2, L3, C1, C, D.
- the motor terminals U, V, W.

Seuls des branchements électriques permanents par câble en entrée sont admis. Mettre l’appareil à la masse (IEC 536 Classe 1, NEC
et autres normes applicables).
S’il s’avère nécessaire d’utiliser un dispositif protecteur de courant résiduel (RCD), il convient de choisir un RCD de type B. Les
machines à alimentation triphasée et dotées de filtres EMC ne doivent pas être raccordées au bloc d’alimentation par le biais d’un
disjoncteur ELCB (Earth Leakage Circuit-Breaker – cf. DIN VDE 0160).
Les bornes suivantes peuvent recevoir des tensions dangereuses, même si l’onduleur est désactivé :
- bornes d’alimentation L1, L2, L3, C1, C, D.
- bornes du moteur U, V, W.

Do not touch or damage any components when handling the device. The changing of the isolation gaps or the removing of the isolation
and covers is not permissible.
Manipuler l’appareil de façon à ne pas toucher ou endommager des parties. Il n’est pas permis de changer les distances d’isolement
ou bien d’enlever des matériaux isolants ou des capots.

According to the EU directives the ADL500 and accessories must be used only after checking that the machine has been produced
using those safety devices required by the 2006/42/EC set of rules, as far as the machine industry is concerned. These standards do
not apply in the Americas, but may need to be considered in equipment being shipped to Europe.
Conformément à la directive UE, les drives ADL500 et leurs accessoires doivent être employés seulement après avoir verifié que la
machine ait été produit avec les même dispositifs de sécurité demandés par la réglementation 2006/42/CE concernant le secteur de
l’industrie.

Motor parameters must be accurately configured for the motor overload protection to operate correctly.
Configurer soigneusement les paramètres du moteur afin que la protection contre les surcharges équipée sur le moteur fonctionne
convenablement.

ADL500 operate at high voltages.

ADL500 fonctionne à des tensions élevées.

Wherever faults occurring in the control equipment can lead to substantial material damage or even grievous bodily injury

Set the plate data of the motor connected, according to the procedures described on the previous pages.

Rated voltage [V]: the rated voltage of the motor indicated on the data plate.
Rated current [A]: motor rated current; approximately, the value should not be less than 0.3 times the rated current of the drive, output current class 1 @ 400 V
on the data plate of the drive.
Rated speed [rpm]: rated speed of the motor; this value must reflect the speed of the fully loaded motor at rated frequency. If slip is indicated on the motor data
plate, set the Rated speed parameter as follows: Rated speed = Synchronous speed - Slip (e.g. for a 4-pole motor Rated speed = 1500 - 70
= 1430).
Rated frequency [Hz]: rated frequency of the motor, as shown on the data plate (asynchronous motors only).
Pole pairs: Number of motor pole pairs. The number of motor pole pairs is calculated using the plate data and the following formula:
P = 60 [s] x f [Hz] / nN [rpm]

Where: P = motor pole pairs, f = motor rated frequency (e.g. 50); nN = motor rated speed (e.g. 1450)

Rated power [kW]: Motor rated power; for a motor data plate with an HP power value, set the rated power kW = 0.736 x the motor power HP value.
Rated power factor: Leave the default rated power factor if the data are not available on the data plate.

Note !
When data entry is complete the Take parameters command is executed automatically (menu MOTOR DATA, PAR: 2020). The motor data entered during the
STARTUP WIZARD procedure are saved in a RAM memory to enable the drive to perform the necessary calculations.

 At the end of the procedure proceed to next step.

Step 6 – Autotune with motor at stand-still and encoder phasing

The drive carries out the motor autotune procedure (real measurement of motor parameters) and the automatic phas-
ing of the absolute encoder (the brake must be blocked).
Autotuning may take a few minutes.

Note! If this operation generates an error message, check the connections of the power and control circuits (see step 1 - Connections), check the motor data set-
tings (see step 3 - Setting motor parameters) and then repeat the guided Autotune procedure.

 9.4 OPTIMIZATION WIZARD
The OPTIMIZ. WIZARD is a guided procedure used for immediately optimize the control response in order to
maximise cabin comfort.
In addition to the automatic procedure (Learning Trip function), three or fives levels of optimization are available for
each of the Rollback, Comfort low speed, Comfort high speed parameters.
To avoid possible vibrations, the optimization level should not be increased if not necessary.

Before enabling the function:

• run the Startup wizard,
Attention • check cabin movement in inspection mode to rule out any macroscopic data entry errors.

The function can be performed from the keypad and via the WEG_DriveLabs configurator (Wizard menu / Optimization
Wizard).
To facilitate operations, the configurator/keypad suggests what actions are to be performed (e.g. up one floor, down
one floor, etc.), intercepting any incorrect actions and communicating them (e.g. call to floor short, calls always in the
same direction, etc.) so as to recommend the corrective action.
Once the sequences envisaged by the function have been completed, the basic speed regulator gains are automati-
cally recalculated. Therefore the user can run a test travel to evaluate the improvement in performance obtained and, if
still not satisfied, the Learning Trip procedure can be repeated or the deficient aspects improved using the appropriate
sections of the optimisation wizard (Rollback, Comfort low speed, Comfort high speed).

 10.2 Speed fbk loss alarm according to the type of feedback

Note ! For the correct interpretation of the cause of the alarm trigger, it is necessary to transform the hex code indicated in parameter 15.13 SpdFbkLoss code,
PAR 2172 , in the corresponding binary and verify in the encoder table that the active bits and related description are used.

Example with encoder Endat:
PAR 2172 = A0H (hex value)
In the table "Speed fbk loss [22] alarm with absolute encoder EnDat" A0 is not indicated in the value column.
A0 should be contemplated as a bitword with meaning A0 -> 10100000 -> bit 5 and bit 7 . The following causes simultaneously intervene:
- Bit 5 = 20H Cause: the SSI signal interferences cause an error in the CKS or parity.
- Bit 7 = 80H Cause: The encoder has detected an incorrect operation and communicates it to the converter through the Error bit. Bits 16..31 present the
type of incorrect encoder operation detected.

The value is displayed in hexadecimal format on the optional and standard keypad.

 A.3 Windows PC Network Configuration
PC’s Ethernet configuration must be set consistently with ADL500 Ethernet configuration, so that the PC and ADL500
can communicate.
Usually PC’s are set in DHCP mode, so they request the network for an IP address. In case no DHCP server is availa-
ble in the network, in most cases PC’s autonomously acquire an IP address belonging to “link local” family: 169.254.x.y.
If the PC’s Ethernet configuration has to be modified, for example in case of ADL500 static IP configuration, here are
the operations to do:

For Windows XP under Control Panel -> Network Connections

For Windows 7 under Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center -> Change adapter settings
For Windows 10 under Control Panel -> Network & Internet -> Change your network settings -> Change adapter options

Then right click on the network adapter to be configured, select “Properties”, double click on “Internet Protocol TCP/IP”
(for Windows XP) or “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) (for Windows 7 or Windows 10).

By default, under “General” Tab, the radio button “Obtain an IP address automatically” should be selected. With this
selection, the PC requests the IP address from the DHCP network.
If under “Alternate Configuration” the “Automatic private IP address” is selected, PC will acquire a link local address
(169.254.x.y), if no DHCP server is available in the network.

Changing the selection of the radio button to “Use the following IP address” the PC will be configured with a static
network configuration. Value of fields:
- IP address
- Subnet Mask
- Default Gateway
must be set to be compatible with ADL500 network configuration and thus enable communication.

Figure 5.1: ADL550 connection diagram for brake monitoring

This shows that :

A) The ADL500 controls brake activation/deactivation via relay BR
B) Both brake feedback signals are sent to the ADL500 inputs
C) The ADL500 signals any malfunctions (including brake malfunctions) to the system control unit via internal relay
DRIVE OK.
D) The system control unit blocks the system brake in safety by deactivating contactors K2M and K3M.

According to an alternative arrangement, the ADL500 closes/opens contactors K2M and K3M but the power supply to
the coils and to the ADL500 commands comes from the external, i.e. a control unit.

The purpose of the brake fault alarm is to check whether the states of the two feedback signals from the brake are
consistent and, in case of doubt, to include a function whereby the ADL500 drive stops the system. The procedure for
including the alarm is described below.

A.4.2 Configuration of the brake fault alarm

• Activation of the brake fault alarm function.

The installer must have previously located the necessary digital inputs of the ADL500 drive and connected the cor-
responding wires to the feedback signals on these inputs. Note that depending on the type of wiring arrangement, the
brake feedback signals are normally asserted (brake closed – digital input to 1) or normally not asserted (brake closed
– digital input to 0).
The brake fault alarm function envisages signals that are normally asserted. If the wiring is functionally inverted, simply
negate the corresponding digital inputs in the ADL500 configuration.

To configure the brake fault alarm function, proceed as follows:

ADL500 • Quick installation guide - Specifications and connection 97

 1. In the SAFETY menu , change the setting of parameter 11252 Brake Fbk A3 Sel (default Null) and select the digi-
tal input corresponding to the second brake feedback signal If Brake Fbk A3 Sel is set to a value other than Null,
the brake fault alarm function is automatically enabled.
2. Next select the digital input corresponding to the first brake feedback signal in parameter 11236 Brake fbk src
(menu LIFT IN).

The brake fault function is enabled. The installer in charge of the system must test the function each time it is
activated or modified, following the brake fault test procedure.

• Resetting the brake fault alarm

1. Open the LIFT ALARM menu and check the setting of parameter 11204 Brake activity = Disable.
2. In the SAFETY menu, select parameter 11268 Reset Brake Alarm (default 0).
3. The system asks for a code, enter release code 5313.
4. Check again to see whether the Brake Alarm has been reset.

• Disabling the brake fault alarm

1. In the SAFETY menu, change the setting of parameter 11252 Brake Fbk A3 Sel to Null The brake fault alarm func-
tion is disabled.
2. If the new configuration does not manage any brake feedback signals, change the setting of parameter 11236
Brake Fbk Sel (menu LIFT IN) to [3708] Brake cont mon.

• Brake fault alarm test procedure

Proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the wire connecting the first brake feedback signal to the relative digital input.
2. Try re-starting from the floor with the feedback signal disconnected. If the lift car does not move (correct behaviour),
proceed to step 3. If the lift car moves, the alarm is not working properly. Check the various parts of the system.
3. If the brake fault alarm is connected, reset it and proceed to step 4. If the alarm is not connection, re-check the vari-
ous parts of the system.
4. Repeat steps 1, 2 and 3, disconnecting the second brake feedback signal from the corresponding input.

If the procedure is successful, the brake fault alarm will function properly.

A.4.3 Maintenance of the brake fault alarm function

The installer must repeat the brake fault alarm test procedure during periodical inspections and whenever messages
concerning the brake unit are displayed.

The installer must check the alarm log each time for any faults
