By pressing the key we are shown the keypad menu. From these menus we can change parameters, view I/O signals,
view general inverter information, copy/read parameters, etc. The available menus are:

Menu 0. QUICK SET *See Menu 10.

In this menu, we can only view the parameters preset by the user.

Menu 1. DATA SET

In this menu, it is possible to set the parameters.

Menu 2. DATA CHECK

In this menu, it is possible to see the parameters, their values and check is any are different from the default.

If there is a change with respect to the factory value, it will appear with an star (*). The
parameters may be modified in this menu.

Menu 3. OPR MNTR (Data viewing)

In this menu it is possible to screen certain data such as voltage, frequency, current and output par, PID
values, operation status, etc.

Menu 4. I/O CHECK

In this menu, we can check the state of the inputs and outputs of the inverters (digital, analogue and encoder).
It is used to check that the inverter is correctly receiving the signals or correctly activating the control
outputs.

Menu 5. MAINTENANCE

In this menu, it is possible to check the total operating time for the cooling fan, the power board condenser,
ROM version etc.

Menu 6. ALM INF (Alarm information)

In this menu, it is possible to see the information on the last alarm and several data from when the alarm
occurred. It is possible to see the state of the inputs / outputs, motor output data, operation time, etc.

There are four different functions on this screen: READ, WRITE, VERIFY and CHECK. Choose the required
function with the arrows and press FUNC/DATA to start. Up to 3 setups can be stored.

The READ function reads inverter data and saves them in the control panel.

The WRITE function writes the data previously stored in the control panel in the inverters.

The VERIFY function compares the data stored in the control panel with the real ones in the inverter. The CHECK
function allows the data to be viewed that are saved without passing them to the inverters. A screen appears,
showing the differences.

In this menu, the parameters we will view in menu 0 can be set.

Menu 11. COMM DEBUG

In this menu, it is possible to set the parameters for the communications (S, M, W, X and Z).

1.- Frequency Inverter Parameterization

The FRENIC Lift inverter has two set of parameters preset from factory, one for asynchronous motors and another for
synchronous. The inverter is factory set with the parameters for the motor specified in the controller order. We can
obtain either programming with the H03 parameter.

PHASE 0 – Inverter initialisation

Parameter Value Description

H03
Set of parameters for synchronous motor
2
*For correct initialisation of the parameters for synchronous motor, a inverter reset must be
performed (H03=1)

**To change this parameter use the key combination +

After passing from synchronous motor to asynchronous or vice versa, the right set of
parameters must be passed from the console to the inverter.

Position 1 = Asynchronous motor

Position 2 = Synchronous motor of permanent magnets
¡IMPORTANT!
Position 3 = Empty

5.- Starting up

The Autotuning procedure (asynchronous motor) enables the frequency inverter to measure the electrical
characteristics of the motor which are not shown on the characteristics plate and which vary from one
motor to another even if they are of the same model and power.

The Poletuning (synchronous motor) seeks the angle (degrees) between the encoder “zero” and its
physical position on the motor axis (rotor), every time the encoder is changed or physically moved.

The Poletuning must be performed with the motor brake closed and without any need to suspend the load
or withdraw the cables from the pulley. The Poletuning is static: the motor rotor will not move at any time
during the process.

The following steps are a guide to the order of the processes to be followed for starting up the machine
and the frequency inverter which is going to control it.

STEP 1: Machine wiring

Once the machine and the control cabinet have been assembled i n their definitive locations, the wiring
between the control and the machine has to be fitted: power loom, brake loom and encoder loom.

The loom from the encoder (or the IDV plate) must enter the inverter
through the left wire hole of the inverter, next to the power wires. This
minimises the electrical disturbance caused by the inverter itself.

If the manoeuvre has a PCB board to indicate direction and speed (IDV) on rescue, this
plate will be placed between the drive and the encoder, by the supplied looms.
WARNING!

DRIVE IDV BOARD ENCODER

Use the encoder manufacturer documentation to identify the device signals. If the encoder loom is not long
enough to reach the inverter or the IDV board when supplied, use the cables supplied as an extension.

In some encoders, their own loom is too thin and, when the length is extended up to the inverter o adding
the IDV -to-inverter loom, the voltage in the encoder drops below the working voltage and fails. If provided,
use the sensor lines in parallel with the power lines to double the section.

If not, cut the thin loom near the encoder and connect the extension loom

motor plate for using it in the inverter:

Fig. 7 – Plate example of synchronous

If, as in the example of the plate in Fig. 7, the number of poles on the motor is not indicated, they have to
be calculated from the other values. At the end of this document, there are some additional examples of
motor plates.

Method for calculating the number of Motor Poles:

• Multiplying the frequency (in Hz) by 120 and dividing it by the speed (in rpm)
• Rounding off to the nearest whole even number which will correspond to the number of poles on
the machine (normally 12, 16, 20 or 24).

120 ⋅ f ( Hz )
poles =
v( rpm)

In the example in Fig. 4, the value would be: 10 multiplied by 120 gives 1200 and 1200 divided by 58
gives 20.68. The nearest even number is 20, which corresponds to the number of poles on the
machine.

The frequency and speed values are related to the type of suspension (traction
ratio). Check that the data on the plate is that of the installation being carried out
(1:1 or 2:1). Otherwise, contact the machine manufacturer to obtain the
¡IMPORTANT!
corresponding values.

STEP 3: Start up the Frequency Inverter

Fit the console directly to the inverter or, if the Frequency Inverter is fitted in the hole, use the loom
supplied to connect the console remotely to the inverter.

Connect the control power supply.

Enter the values noted on the motor plate in the following order:

-- Hz Motor data (1). Asynchronous motor

Vs (rpm) − Vn (rpm) Vn = nominal speed

(1).P12 = ⋅ Fn (Hz ) Vs = Synchronous speed
Vs ( rpm) F n = Nominal frequency

Enter the values which define the type of encoder installed on the machine. Consult the information
provided with the encoder or with the machine. As an example, one of the most usual encoders is the
ECN 1313...2048… the model manufactured by Heidenhain. This encoder is of the L01=1 and L02=2048
type with 01 pulses per revolution and should be supplied at 5V.

Also check the speeds of the lift (parameters C) as they must change in line with the nominal speed of the
motor.

STEP 4: Preparing the control

The control should have certain signals connected to be able to start the autotuning process:
• The inspection box (or a provisional operating panel) should be connected.
• Extreme speed changes (CVI, CVS and PME if it exists) should be closed.
• The safety and door series should be closed.
• Check that the RESCUE selector is in the ‘Normal’ position.
• Check that the control cabinet door contact is closed (if it exists). See Photo 3.
• Check that 230V reach the primary winding of the control transformer.
• Enter the control menu to activate it.
• Raise the brake relay lever. See photo 3 and 4 in the next page.

• Check that the machine pulley spins freely if it is spun manually. If the motor does not spin when
the control is supplied with power and the RF brake relay has the lever raised (see Photo 4),
check that the brake is correctly adjusted.

Lower the RF lever once more. The machine must be braked for the poletuning
and the autotuning.
IMPORTANT!

STEP 5a: Autotuning (asynchronous motor)

There are two types of Autotuning:

AUTOTUNING MODE 1 (P04 = 1)

P07 and P08 are calculated automatically.

AUTOTUNING MODE 2 (P04 = 2)

P06, P07, P08 and P12 are calculated automatically

If the empty current is not known (I0 ) and/or the motor sliding, we recommend the
AUTOTUNING mode 2
¡IMPORTANT!

Steps to follow for the Autotuning:

1. Before turning on the inverter, please check that the motor and the encoder (in closed loop) are
correctly connected to the inverter.

2. Turn on the inverter.

3. Go to the "4 I/O CHECK" menu and, using the keypad arrows, look for the screen showing the following
data: P1, Z1, P2, Z2. Row P2 should show the value "+0 p/s " (with this indication, it is confirmed that the

STEP 5b: Poletuning (synchronous motor)

1. Before turning on the inverter, please check that the motor and the encoder are correctly connected to
the inverter.

2. Turn on the inverter.

3. Go to the "4 I/O CHECK" menu and, using the keypad arrows, look for the screen showing the following
data: P1, Z1, P2, Z2. Row P2 should show the value "+0 p/s " (with this indication, it is confirmed that the
encoder card has been correctly installed). If row P2 shows " ---- p/s ", check that the optional card is
correctly installed.
NB: Check the installation of the encoder card when the load LED and the inverter KEYPAD are
completely turned off.

4. Go to the "2 DATA CHECK" menu

5. Adjust parameter L03 to 4 and press FUNC/DATA.

6. Start up the inverter using the push buttons, inspection box or the provisional operating panel to
activate the KP1 and KP2 contactors. If the inspection box is used, the selector will first have to be set
to the INSPECTION position

Sounds should automatically be heard in the motor. The inverter will return to the “2 DATA CHECK” menu
at the end of the process

The result of the Poletuning will be stored in parameter L04. Write this value on a paper.

8. Open the brake for the motor pulley to turn and the cabin moves sharply (0.5m min.) Repeat steps 5
and 6 to check that the value that appears in L04 is always similar. If the difference is larger than 20º or
an Error7 occurs, swap two phases of the output to motor (for example phases V with W) and return to
step 6.

The poletuning process is complete.

Read the value of parameter L04 (encoder angle) and note it: L04= ____________

If when trying to move the lift, the Ere error message appears, there may be a problem with the mesh of
the encoder, and it is recommended to check the encoder wiring. If it continues to give an error message,
contact the Carlos Silva SA After-Sales Service.

STEP 6: Completing Autotuning

Identify by colour the power cables at the end of the control and of the motor. If the cables are
exchanged after autotuning, the process should be repeated. In Table 3, enter the colours used for
further use:

In CONTROLLER (colour) In MOTOR (colour)

U U
V V
W W
Table 7.

Undo all the bridging pieces which were made provisionally in the SAFETY SERIES
and in the extreme speed changes CVS, CVI and PME (if they exist).
WARNING!

Once the Autotuning or the Poletuning has been completed, the motor phases
should NOT be swapped.
If when starting, the motor is seen to turn in the opposite direction to that
required “IT MUST NOT” be solved by changing two phases of the motor, the
IMPORTANT! value of parameter E98 must be exchanged with that of E99 or the connections
must be changed between the FWD and REV terminals.

6.- Rescue.
In this type of control for machines with synchronous motors, the rescue is carried out by load
decompensation between the car and counterweight making use of the high level of reversibility in this
type of machine. In these systems, the brake opening is sufficient to release the machine and, due to the
difference in load, to make the machine spin and the car move.

For the brake opening, the control has a Uninterruptible Power Sypply (UPS) which powers the brake in
case of emergency.

The rescue speed is limited via the KRM contactor. This contactor short circuits the U, V and W terminals
on the motor during the rescue which is why it should NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES be
operated manually. To avoid it being operated manually, it has a reminder label with the notice:
WARNING: This contactor short circuits the motor phases, do not operate manually. The motor
phases short circuit during the rescue process to limit the speed at which the machine spins through the
effect of the electric brake: as the machine spins, voltage is generated in the phase terminals which, if
they short circuit, this voltage counteracts the mechanical spinning reaching a balance between the
generator effect and the motor effect which limits the spin speed to approximately 20% of the nominal
speed of the machine.

The KRM contactor should NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES be activated

manually. It short circuits the motor U, V and W terminals.
WARNING!

6.1.- Fitting the Uninterruptible Power Sypply (UPS)

For transport reasons, the Uninterruptible Power Sypply (UPS) device is not fitted in the control cabinet.
The UPS device is supplied in a separate box.

The UPS should be fitted to the stand provided in the control cabinet (see Photo 5). The voltage supply
cable and the voltage output cable should be plugged in and the CHSAI and CMSAI connectors should
be connected as shown in Photo 6.

Photo 5 Photo 6 – Detail of UPS wiring

The UPS unit should be fitted to the stand provided in the The power and output looms must be connected to the unit
control cabinet and the CHSAI and CMSAI connectors must be attached

6.2.- Fitting the brake contacts

To carry out the rescue with the brake cut-out/s safely, most of the machines have contacts which give
information on the brake status. These contacts should be connected to the control using the appropriate
cable.
These contacts are fitted to the brake runby which is why their correct operation
should be checked and they should be adjusted. To check and fit them
consult the information provided by the machine manufacturer. If they are not fitted
¡ADVERTENCIA! correctly, the rescue control will NOT operate.

6.3.- Rescue Operation

Rescue is based on the decompensation of the load between the car and the counterweight, and the
rescue speed is limited by the operation of the KRM contactor.

For move the car during the rescue, the car door and exterior door series must be closed. If any of these
series is open intervention by technical personnel will be required.

As additional protection, the inspection selector should be in the NORMAL position. If it is in the
INSPECTION position, the rescue will not be executed.

To carry out the rescue, the following steps should be taken:

• Open the door of the control cabinet corresponding to the rescue zone.
• Disconnect the three-phase power supply by lowering the lever on the magnetothermal trip
labelled “POWER SWITCH”.
• Check that the service light for the unlocking zone is off. If it is on, this means that the car is
already in a door zone (at floor level) and there is no need to move the car.
• Move the CMS selector from the NORMAL position to the RESCUE position.
• Press the PR push button and hold it down until the unlocking zone light comes on, then release
the push button.

Fe FRENIC Lift - Asynchronous – Synchronous Start up Fe FRENIC Lift asíncrono - síncrono Rev. 0b Rev.

• Return the CMS selector to the NORMAL position.

• Close the rescue zone door and remove the key from the lock.
• Go to the floor where the car is located, open the doors using the triangular key and release
the people who are stuck.

Depending on the causes which led to the lift becoming stuck, it will be advisable to restore the
POWER SWITCH (magnetothermal trip). If it happened due to a power cut not caused by the lift,
the magnetothermal trip may be restored so that when the electricity supply returns to the lift it will
be operational again. If it happened due to a breakdown in the lift, it should not be restored until the
lift has been checked and repaired by technical personnel.

6.4.- Rescue with conditioned stoppage

Some equipments are supplied prepared so that the PR push button is no longer pressed when the
unlocking zone light indicator comes on.

However, the system is designed so that rescue can easily be conditioned to detection of the
arrival of the car at the floor. Thus, even while keeping the push button pressed the movement of
the car is stopped.

To condition the rescue and for the car to stop when

arrival at the floor is detected, a modification has to be
made to the inspection box:

1. On the TBC30 plate, the A5 connector has a

bridging piece between terminals 1 and 5. See Fig.
9.
2. Replace the bridging piece with a free potential
contact of a detector or a stopping device. See Fig.
10.
3. The detector or stopping device must have the
contact open when the cabin is at floor level.

Fig. 9 – Detail of a TBC30 plate Fig. 10 – Detail of modification

The details and steps indicated in this section may not coincide with the
equipment supplied.

Before following these instructions, check the diagrams supplied with the control
WARNING! to ensure that the connectors and signals have been supplied as they are
detailed here, since they may vary without prior warning.
