Direct On-line Three-phase AC motors (here: induction motors) can be operated directly on
Operation the three-phase mains system. They are switched on and off by means of a
contactor (= relay for high currents). For example: a pump for a water storage
tank.
Motor Starter To achieve a smooth start-up, a reduced voltage starter (= motor starter) is
frequently used. After start-up, the motor is then operated directly on the mains.
For example: the drive of an escalator.
Inverter If the motor speed is to be variable, an inverter is used.
For example: the drive of a container crane.
Some applications require a precise adherence to a predefined speed. This is
frequently connected to positioning tasks. These are then servo drives. In simple
terms, servo drives are used everywhere where movement used to be carried
out manually.
For example: machine tools, packaging machines, robots.
The Way it Works With a rectifier circuit, the three-phase current of the public supply system is
rectified. This results in a DC voltage that is buffered by capacitors (DC link). A
power module with transistors generates a three-phase current with variable
frequency and voltage from this DC voltage.
Variable voltage? The motor represents an inductive resistance for the current
flow. With rising frequency the inductive resistance increases. For that reason,
the inverter must also increase the output voltage proportional to the output
frequency.
Configuration It is possible to connect several power modules for several motors to a rectifier
(such as SIMODRIVE 611, MASTERDRIVES).
Rectifier If a rectifier circuit with transistors instead of diodes is used then electrical
energy can be fed back into the system during ramping down.
Application example:
Controlled pumps and
fans in an air
conditioner
MICROMASTER 4 Inverter
(here the different sizes with a Application example:
performance of about 0.1 to 90 kW) Conveyor belt
Categorization Standard drives are used for applications that only require a low to medium
dynamic as far as speed control is concerned. Many applications in the past
used to be driven with three-phase motors connected directly to the mains. In
the 90s, inverters became so economical that the advantages of a speed-
controlled drive could be utilized in many areas (energy savings in the partial-
load operation, smooth ramp-up and controlled ramping down, quality
improvement in production).
Design The MICROMASTER inverters are now in the fouth generation. They are
"Stand-Alone" devices. That is, the inverter is complete and is connected
between the mains and the motor.
The MICROMASTER 4 inverter family comprises several versions:
MICROMASTER 420 for simple control requirements such as pumps and fans.
MICROMASTER 440 for demanding control requirements (dynamic and precise speed control).
MICROMASTER 410 for the simplest requirements with only a limited ability to parameterize.
MICROMASTER 411 the integration of motor and converter (= COMBIMASTER). The inverter is
located in a special housing piggy-backed on the motor.
Applications - Pumps and fans (for heating, air conditioning, ventilation, chemistry,
foodstuffs ...)
- Conveyor belt systems (for packages, baggage, mail)
- Automatic doors ((house) entrances, elevator doors, garages)
- Washing machines, dryers and ironing machines (industrial field)
- Car washes ...
PROFIBUS module
Field Bus A field bus connects distributed sensors and actuators (such as, valves, light
barriers, measuring devices, drives, operator control panels) with the central
PLC.
PROFIBUS DP is a manufacturer-independent, open field bus. PROFIBUS has
been standardized and continuously further developed by the PNO (Profibus
User Organization) since 1990.
Master-Slave The master (usually a PLC with a PROFIBUS interface module, such as,
S7-315-2 DP) controls the data communication on the bus. Slaves only send
data when they are prompted by the master. That way, no collision results
between two senders.
Cyclical Range The slaves are cyclically (= one after the other) supplied with process data by
the master and their process data is scanned.
In Drives, process data are, for example,
- speed setpoint, switch-on signals from the master or
- actual speeds, error signals from the drive.
The data telegrams consist of 2 to 16 words (á 16 bit).
Cycle times lie between about 2 to 20 ms.
Event-driven Range As well, there is often the need to read or change the parameters of a drive. This
occurs (in today‘s applications) only when prompted. The cyclic operation is
then briefly interrupted and a longer data telegram with up to 117 words is sent.
Master Class 2 The "normal“ master is called Master Class 1. For commissioning, you can also
connect a PC or PG (= SIMATIC programming device) as a Master Class 2.
Independent of the actual data communication, the Master Class 2 can access
the drives.
Profibus Address The minimum requirement for commissioning the Profibus option module is the
setting of the Profibus address. You will find more information on Page 12 of this
chapter.
Starter The "STARTER" commissioning software for drives supports the user in:
- parameter assignment
- commissioning
- diagnosis
- the service of MICROMASTER 4.
STARTER can be executed as stand alone. The tool is, however, also
integrated in the Drive ES configuration program from Totally Integrated
Automation.

Index of a parameter (sub-parameters):
SDP The standard version of the MICROMASTER is fitted with the SDP (= Status
Display Panel). The MICROMASTER is already parameterized in such a way
that it can be operated through the terminal strip.
The SDP has a status indicator with a green and yellow LED (16 different
messages)
BOP The BOP (= Basic Operator Panel) can be ordered as an option to replace the
SDP – temporarily for commissioning or long-term.
Functions:
• LCD display with 5-digit 7-segment display and unit symbols
(Hz, min-1, V, A, kWh)
• Access to all parameters up to Acess Level 3 (Expert)
Parameter List Unlike a PLC controller (SIMATIC), drives are not programmed. No program is
written.
Settings are made in parameters. The basic program in the digital drive is fixed
and is called firmware. By assigning parameters, the inverter is adapted to the
task.
Indexed Parameter Many parameters contain sub-parameters. Parameters with similar functions are
often grouped there.
Monitoring Some parameters are only used to display values.
Parameters So that you can differentiate them from the others at first glance, an "r" (= read
only) is placed in front of them instead of a "P".
"Trigger" Parameters Some parameters can only be changed from 0 to 1. An internal action in the
MICROMASTER is usually triggered with this, for example, Reset to Factory
Default.
Access Levels For simple applications, only a few parameters have to be changed. For
complex applications, an "exotic" parameter may be needed from time to time.
For that reason, access levels were established in parameter P003:
• Level 1 = Standard, where only the 17 most important parameters are
displayed
• Level 2 = Extended. In this level, additional parameters are visible for the
input and output terminals, as well as for communication through field bus or
for example, for the setpoint channel
• Level 3 = Expert. Here you have access to all necessary parameters. For
the MICROMASTER, this is about 600 parameters
• Level 4 = Service. Some specific parameters are only meant for authorized
service personnel. The level is protected by codeword.
Command Source Commands are: on signal, off signal, jog, and acknowledge fault messages, for
example. On the training unit, you can select the following sources using
parameter P0700:
• P0700 = 1 BOP operator panel
• P0700 = 2 Switches S1-S3 on the demo case
• P0700 = 6 From the CPU through Profibus
Setpoint Source Setpoint is, the inverter frequency, for example. On the training unit, you can
select the following sources using parameter P1000:
• P1000 = 1 BOP operator panel with the higher/lower buttons (only
with r0000)
• P1000 = 2 Potentiometer on the demo case
• P1000 = 6 From the CPU through Profibus
S1 = Drive On/Off
S2 = Reverse direction of rotation
P0010 = Commissioning filter S3 = Acknowledge fault
P0970 = Reset to factory defaults H1 = Fault (is lit when there is no fault)
P3900 = End of quick commissioning P1 = Potentiometer for the frequency/speed
Task First of all, carry out a Reset to Factory Default to establish a defined output
state. In the factory default, the inverter is already functional and can be
controlled using binary inputs.

(Set-up operation)
Notes Pressing the higher/lower keys only affects the speed in r0000 (press Fn key
and then P key). Otherwise they are only used for assigning parameters.
Changing the speed using the "faster" signal or the "slower" signal is called
motor potentiometer (MOP).
Jog Key: In certain circumstances, it is necessary to control the drive independent of the
current inverter setpoint or the normal ON commands. If, for example, the
control signals come from a SIMATIC S7-300 by default, then the control must
take place "by hand" in a service case or when setting the drive to a new
position.
The key only functions in the ready state. That is, OFF1 = 1.
The frequency is 5 Hz in the factory default.
Fn Key: With the "Fn" (Function key) key, you can carry out the following actions
- acknowledge alarm and fault messages when the cause of the error no
longer exists
- jump between decimal positions in parameter changes
- display of important inverter data, such as, voltage of DC current link
(Roll function when "Fn" key is pressed for 2 seconds).

Task The drive is to be assigned parameters in such a way that the control
commands are transmitted from the CPU through Profibus.
Diagnosis The tri-colored LED is located on the front of the Profibus-DP card. The
following table explains possible LED displays and error causes and helps you
with the following exercise:
Off no power
Red flashing invalid Profibus address (126/127 is invalid) or hardware/software error
Red on temporary state during startup or new communication configuration; if constant
state, then Profibus interface or inverter defective
Orange on Communication link to converter and connection Profibus has been established
but no cyclic data exchange is taking place.
Orange flashing communication to inverter built-up; no connection to Profibus, or Profibus
connector not inserted or faulty or Profibus master is switched off.
Green flashing cyclic process data exchange exists, but setpoints are invalid (control word = 0,
because S7 master is in the "STOP" state, for example.
Green on cyclic process data exchange is built-up.
Ramp-up Time Internally, the setpoint value changes according to a step function. To achieve a
controlled ramp-up transition, a ramp-function generator is integrated, that
generates a ramp-type setpoint for the controller.

Attention The minimum requirement for commissioning the Profibus communications module
is the setting of the Profibus address.
Task To be able to control the Micromaster through the Profibus DP network, the
Micromaster must be linked to the Profibus DB and assigned parameters.
What to Do 1. Link the MM420 to the Profibus mastersystem. You will find the MM420 in
the Hardware Catalog Profile "Drive ES" Æ SIMOVERT Æ
MICROMASTER 4 Æ MICROMASTER 420 (see slide)
2. Assign parameters to the MM420 as shown in the slide:
- Device version V1.0
- Profibus Address: 6
- PPO Type 3.PZD 2/2
- I / O Address 56
3. Save, compile and download the configuration to the CPU.
Attention! Through the Reset to Factory Default, Parameter P2040 is set to = 0, among
other things. This parameter defines a telegram off time between 0 and 65,535
ms, after which a fault message is triggered on the MM420. When t = 0, a
possibly running motor is therefore not switched off with CPU – Stop or DP-
Master failure.
Check and modify - if necessary – Parameter P2040 to a value greater than
zero. You will find additional information in the Parameter List for the MM420.

Task You are to input the setpoint speed to the Micromaster through the
potentiometer. Jog operation (5Hz) is also possible. Test both possibilities.
Note You will find a printout of the sample program used along with an explanation at
the end of this chapter and in the Solution Suggestions.
Note The following pages contain either further information or are for reference to
complete a topic.
General Since the actual value for the speed is specifed through the potentiometer on
the MM 420 Demo case, it is sufficient to only transfer the control word.
With the PPO Type 3, you can carry out a consistent data transfer with Load
and Transfer instructions or with the "MOVE" Box.
Motor ON (NW 1) Transferring takes place when "Motor_On_HMI" has signal "1". This is a bit
memory that is set through the "On" button in the "MM420" screen on the touch
panel and is reset through the "Off" button.
On the right side of the slide you can see the colored bits of the control word that
are set by the program.
Motor OFF (NW 2) Bit 0 of the control word is set to zero. The motor slows down with the
parameterized lag time.
Jog Motor Right Instead of bit 0, bit 8 is set for "JOG right". As long as the "Jog right" button is
(NW 3) pressed on the touch panel, the motor moves to the right. In the momentary
parameter assignment of the MM 420, a frequency of 5 Hz is set, that can also
be changed through the parameter P1058.
Jog Motor Left Instead of bit 0, bit 9 is set for "JOG left". As long as the "Jog left " button is
(NW 4) pressed on the touch panel, the motor moves to the left. In the momentary
parameter assignment of the MM 420, a frequency of 5 Hz is set, that can also
be changed through the parameter P1059.
Note You will receive additional detailed information on the various PPO Types,
structure of the control word etc., in Programming Course 2.
MICROMASTER
Control Word The control word is a collection of 16 internal binary signals that have to be
available for the internal sequence control system / closed-loop controller of the
inverter. When inverter and SIMATIC S7 are linked with one another using
Profibus, the control word can be ‘made available‘ using an associated output
word, such as QW56. You will find a possible example in FC42.
The control word (bits 0 to 10) conforms to the Standard PROFIdrive Profile. Bit
11 to 15 is MICROMASTER specific.
ON/OFF1 To switch on, an edge change is necessary and OFF2 and OFF3 may not be
active. During switching off, the motor brakes on the braking ramp of the ramp-
function generator and the inverter then switches off.
OFF2 The motor ramps down without braking (coasts to a standstill) and the inverter
switches off immediately.
OFF3 The motor brakes with the back edge of the out signal. The inverter remains on.
15 Inverter overload
Status Word The status word is a collection of 16 internal binary signals that are made
available from the internal sequence control system / closed-loop controller of
the inverter. When inverter and SIMATIC S7 are linked with one another using
Profibus, the status word can be monitored and analyzed using an associated
input word such as IW56.
The status word (bits 0 to 10) conforms to the Standard PROFIdrive Profile. Bit
11 to 15 is MICROMASTER specific.
Switch-on Inhibit This status is reached after an error elimination and acknowledgement of a drive
fault. A subsequent switching on is only possible through OFF1 and then ON.

General To control the drive using Profibus, several definitions have to be made with
regards to the control signals OFF1 to OFF3. You have become familiar with
one possible example in FC42 "FC_MM420". You will receive more detailed
information on the topics of control and status word, PPO Types, cyclic and
acyclic data transmission etc., in Programming Course 2.
Sequence The signal for switching on the drive - ON/OFF1 - is edge triggered and is
only accepted when the signal OFF2 and OFF3 are not active.
