Chapter 5: Operation and Programming
5.1
Introduction
The X5 AC drive is pre-programmed to run a standard, 4-pole AC induction motor. For many
applications, the drive is ready for use right out of the box with no additional programming needed.
The digital keypad controls all operations of the unit. The ten input keys allow “press and run”
operation of the motor (Operation mode) and straightforward programming of the parameters
(Program mode)..
Figure 5-1: The X5 Keypad
To simplify programming, the parameters are grouped into three levels:
1. Enter
Level 1
by pressing the Program (PROG) key at any time. Level 1 allows you to access
the most commonly used parameters.
2. Enter
Level 2
by holding down the SHIFT key while pressing the PROG key. Level 2 allows
access to all X5 parameters, including those in Level 1, for applications which require more
advanced features.
3. Enter
Macro mode
by holding the Program (PROG) key down for more than 3 seconds. The
display then shows “Hold PROG for Macro Mode.” See
Chapter 6, “Using Macro Mode,”
, for more information.
The summary of parameters found before the Table of Contents notes whether a parameter is in
Level 1.
“Chapter 7: X5 Parameters” on page 70
gives full information about what level a
parameter is in.
Note that all parameters can be addressed by adding 40000 to the parameter number.
For
example, parameter
201
(Input Mode) can be addressed by Modbus address 40201.
