Rotating shafts and electrical equipment can
be hazardous. Therefore, it is strongly
recommended that all electrical work conform
to the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all
local regulations. Installation, start-up and
maintenance should be performed only by
qualified personnel.
Factory recommended procedures, included in this manual,
should be followed. Always disconnect electrical power before
working on the unit.
Although shaft couplings or belt drives are generally not
furnished by the manufacturer, rotating shafts, couplings and
belts must be protected with securely mounted metal guards
that are of sufficient thickness to provide protection against
flying particles such as keys, bolts and coupling parts. Even
when the motor is stopped, it should be considered “alive”
as long as its controller is energized. Automatic circuits may
start the motor at any time. Keep hands away from the output
shaft until the motor has completely stopped and power is
disconnected from the controller.
Motor control equipment and electronic controls are
connected to hazardous line voltages. When servicing drives
and electronic controls, there will be exposed components
at or above line potential. Extreme care should be taken to
protect against shock. Stand on an insulating pad and make
it a habit to use only one hand when checking components.
Always work with another person in case of an emergency.
Disconnect power whenever possible to check controls or
to perform maintenance. Be sure equipment is properly
grounded. Wear safety glasses whenever working on electric
control or rotating equipment.
Safety Guidelines
1.
The drive must be disconnected from the AC line before
any service work is done.
2.
The “Stop/Off” key on the local control panel of the drive
Touching electrical parts may be fatal – even after equipment has been
disconnected from AC line. To be sure that capacitors have fully dis-
charged, wait 14 minutes after power has been removed before touching
any internal component.
������
�
does not disconnect the equipment from the AC line and
is not to be used as a safety switch.
3.
Correct protective grounding of the equipment must be
established. The user must be protected against supply
voltage and the motor must be protected against
overload in accordance with applicable national and local
regulations.
4.
Ground currents are higher than 3 mA.
Warnings Against Unintended
Start
1.
While the drive is connected to the AC line, the motor
can be brought to a stop by means of external switch
closures, serial bus commands or references. If personal
safety considerations make it necessary to ensure that
no unintended start occurs, these stops are not sufficient.
2.
During programming of parameters, the motor may start.
Be certain that no one is in the area of the motor or
driven equipment when changing parameters.
3.
A motor that has been stopped may start unexpectedly
if faults occur in the electronics of the drive, or if an
overload, a fault in the supply AC line or a fault in the
motor connection or other fault clears.
4.
If the “Local/Hand” key is activated, the motor can only
be brought to a stop by means of the “Stop/Off” key or
an external safety interlock.
NOTE:
It is responsibility of user or person installing
drive to provide proper grounding and branch
circuit protection for incoming power and
motor overload according to National Electrical
Code (NEC) and local codes.
The Electronic Thermal Relay (ETR) is UL listed. VLTs provide
Class 20 motor overload protection in accordance with the
NEC in single motor applications, when VLT 6000/8000
parameter 117 (VLT 5000 parameter 128) is set for ETR Trip 1
and parameter 105 is set for rated motor (nameplate) current.

LON
Concept
LonWorks
Overview
Applications
LonWorks is both an existing standard and
hardware developed by Echelon Corporation.
Echelon's stated goal is to establish a com-
modity solution to the presently daunting
problems of designing and building control
networks.
The result is LonMark Interoperability which
makes it possible for independent network
devices to operate together over a
LonWorks network. The LonMark program
was developed to address interoperability
issues. As a result, the LonMark
Interoperability Association Task Groups
(LonUsers Groups) were developed. The
task groups determine that each device on
the network has an object definition, create
The LonWorks communications structure is
similar to that of a local area network (LAN)
in that messages are continually exchanged
between a number of processors. A
LonWorks system is a determined local
operating network (LON). LON technology
offers a means for integrating various
distributed systems that perform sensing,
monitoring, control, and other automated
functions. A LON allows these intelligent
devices to communicate with one another
through an assortment of communications
media using a standard protocol.
LON technology supports distributed, peer-
to-peer communications. That is, individual
network devices can communicate directly
with one another without need for a central
control system. A LON is designed to move
sense and control messages which are
typically very short and which contain
commands and status information that
trigger actions. LON performance is viewed
in terms of transactions completed per
second and response time. Control systems
do not need vast amounts of data, but they
do demand that the messages they send
and receive are absolutely correct. The critical
factor in LON technology is the assurance
of correct signal transmission and verification.
An important LonWorks benefit is the
network’s ability to communicate across
different types of transmission media. The
NEURON chip is the heart of the LonWorks
system. The NEURON chip's commu-
nication port allows for the use of
transceivers for other media (such as coax
and fiber optic) to meet special needs.
LonWorks control devices are called nodes.
Physically, each node consists of a NEURON
chip and a transceiver. With proper design,
the nodes become building blocks that can
be applied to control a variety of tasks, such
as lighting or ventilating, integrating a variety
of communications media.
The tasks which the nodes perform are
determined by how they have been
connected and configured. Because
hardware design, software design, and
network design may be independent in a
LonWorks-based system, a node’s function
can be programmed to accommodate the
networks in which it will be used.
standards and models to be used by
particular applications and create a common
platform for presenting data. A standard
network variable type (SNVT) facilitates
interoperability by providing a well defined
interface for communication between
devices made by different manufacturers.
The VLT Adjustable Frequency Drive
supports the node object and controller
standard object definitions of LonMark
Interoperability.
Customers are currently using LonWorks for
process control, building automation, motor
control, elevator operation, life safety
systems, power and HVAC distribution and
similar intelligent building applications.

Message
Passing
Node
Arrangements
LonWorks nodes can be addressed either
individually or in groups. A group can contain
up to 64 nodes, and one LonWorks network
can support 255 groups. Furthermore, any
node can be part of 15 different groups. A
subnet, very similar to a group, can contain
127 nodes. A domain is the largest
arrangement of nodes with a single domain
able to handle 255 subnets. Thus a domain
can handle 32,385 separate nodes. A single
node may be connected to no more than two
domains.
The group structure has the advantage of
allowing a number of nodes to be reached at
only one address. This method reduces the
record keeping inside each chip to a minimum,
allowing faster operation. However, high
efficiency individual addressing can be done
at all levels of a LonWorks system. The
address table of a node contains entries for
the group type and size and tells the node
how many acknowledgments to expect when
it sends a message. It also tells the NEURON
chip which domain to use and the node group
member number, which identifies an
acknowledgment as coming from the node.
The address also contains a transmit timer, a
repeat timer, a retry counter, a receive timer,
and the group ID.
There are a number of trade-offs between
network efficiency, response time, security,
and reliability. Generally, LonWorks defaults to
the greatest degree of safety and verification
for all communications over the LON network.
The LonTalk protocol, built into the chips, is
the operating system that coordinates the
LonWorks system. It offers four basic types
of message service.
The most reliable service is acknowledged (or
end-to-end acknowledged service), where a
message is sent to a node or group of nodes
and individual acknowledgments are ex-
pected from each receiver. If an
acknowledgment is not received from all des-
tinations, the sender times out and re-tries
the transaction. The number of retries and
time-out duration are both selectable. Ac-
VLT LonWorks
Option Card
The Danfoss VLT LonWorks option card is
comprised of a control card with a NEURON
chip and a memory card. When installed into
the VLT adjustable frequency drive, the unit
enables the drive to communicate with other
devices on the LON. The VLT drive is designed
to provide precision control of standard
induction electrical motors. The drive receives
three reference signals along with start/stop
and reset commands from the network. The
drive also receives a 16-bit control word that
provides full operational control of the drive.
(See Network Drive Control Input for additional
details.)
In response, the drive provides 16 output
network variables containing important drive
and motor data. (See Drive Feedback to
Network.) Output to the network includes
drive status, current, voltage, motor and
inverter thermal status, and alarms and
warnings.
LonWorks supports many different types of
transmission media. A LonWorks network
physical layer option can be transformer
coupled twisted pair (78 kbps and 1.25
Mbps), free topology, link power, power line,
RF, RS-485, fiber optic, coaxial, or infrared.
The VLT LonWorks option supports four
transmission media with three versions of the
VLT LonWorks option card. The VLT
LonWorks option card versions are:
1. Free topology, which also operates on
a link power network.
2. 78 kbps transformer coupled twisted
pair.
3. 1.25 Mbps transformer coupled twisted
pair.
A router is required to interface to a LonWorks
network when not supported by one of the
three option card versions.

Collision
Detection
Network
Management
Depending on the level of a given application,
a LonWorks network may or may not require
the use of a network management node. A
network management node performs
management functions, such as:
•
Find unconfigured nodes and
download their network addresses.
•
Stop, start, and reset node
applications.
•
Access node communication statistics.
•
Configure routers and bridges.
•
Download new applications programs.
•
Extract the topology of a running
network.
The LonTalk protocol uses a unique collision
avoidance algorithm which allows an
overloaded channel to carry near to its
maximum capacity, rather than reducing its
throughput due to excessive collisions
between messages. When using a
communications medium that supports
collision detection, such as twisted pair, the
LonTalk protocol can optionally cancel
transmission of a packet as soon as a collision
is detected by the transceiver. This option
allows the node to immediately retransmit any
packet that has been damaged by a collision.
Without collision detection, the node would
wait the duration of the retry time to notice
that no acknowledgment was received. At that
time it would retransmit the packet, assuming
acknowledge or request/response service.
For unacknowledged service, an undetected
collision means that the packet is not received
and no retry is attempted.
knowledgments are generated by the network
host processor without intervention of the ap-
plication. Transaction IDs are used to keep
track of messages and acknowledgments so
that the application does not receive dupli-
cate messages.
An equally reliable service is request/response,
where a message is sent to a node or group
of nodes and individual responses are ex-
pected from each receiver. Incoming
messages are processed by the application
on the receiving side before a response is
generated. The same retry and time-out op-
tions are available as with acknowledged
service. Responses may include data, so that
this service is particularly suitable for remote
procedure call or client/server applications.
Next in reliability is unacknowledged repeated.
Messages are sent multiple times to a node
or a group of nodes with no response
expected. This service is typically used when
broadcasting to large groups of nodes when
traffic generated by all the responses would
overload the network.
The final method in reliability is unac-
knowledged, where a message is sent once
to a node or group of nodes and no response
is expected. This option is typically used when
the highest performance is required, network
bandwidth is limited, and the application is
not sensitive to the loss of a message.

Routers and
Bridges
A router (or bridge) is a special node that
consists of two connected NEURON chips, each
connected to a separate channel (see figure
below). Routers and bridges pass packets
back and forth between these channels. There
are four types of routers. A repeater is the
simplest form of router, simply forwarding all
packets between the two channels. A bridge
simply forwards all packets which match its
domains between the two channels. Using a
bridge or repeater, a subnet can exist across
multiple channels. A learning router monitors
the network traffic and learns the network
topology at the domain/subnet level. The
learning router then uses its knowledge to
selectively route packets between channels.
Like a learning router, a configured router
selectively routes packets between channels
by consulting internal routing tables. Unlike a
learning router, the contents of the internal
routing tables are specified using network
management commands.
Initially, each router sets its internal routing tables
to indicate that all subnets could lie on either side
of the router. Suppose that node 6, in the figure
below, generates a message bound for node 2.
Learning router 1 initially picks up the message.
It examines the source subnet field of the
message and notes in its internal routing tables
Learning Routers

that subnet 2 lies below it. The router then
compares the source and destination subnet IDs
and, since they are different, the message is
passed on. Meanwhile, learning router 2 also
passes the message on, making an appropriate
notation in its internal routing tables regarding the
location of subnet 2.
Suppose now that node 2 generates an
acknowledgment. This acknowledgment is
picked up by learning router 1, which now notes
the location of subnet 1. Learning router 1
examines its internal routing tables, and, noting
that subnet 2 lies below, passes the message
on. When the message appears on subnet 2, it
is noted by both node 6 (the destination) and
learning router 2. Learning router 2 does not pass
it on but merely notes that subnet 1, like subnet
2, lies somewhere above. Learning router 2 will
not learn of the existence or location of subnet 3
until a message is originated from there. Subnets
cannot cross routers. While bridges and
repeaters allow subnets to span multiple
channels, the two sides of a router must belong
to separate subnets. Since routers are selective
about the packets they forward to each channel,
the total capacity of a system can be increased
in terms of nodes and connections.

The adjustable frequency drive generates a
carrier frequency with a pulse frequency
between 3 kHz and 14 kHz. This results in
radiated frequency noise from the motor
cables. It is very important that the LonWorks
cable be isolated as much as possible from
the drive output cabling to the motor. Use
shielded wire rather than twisted-pair. Do not
run LonWorks cabling and motor cables in
parallel or in close proximity to one another.
Ensure that the drive is properly grounded.
The following section describes the installation
procedures for the LonWorks option card (see
following illustration). For additional information

Option Card
Resource
files
A LonMark interface file (.XIF extension)
provides the host processor with device
information. With this, it is possible to design a
LonWorks network without the adjustable
frequency drive being physically present.
The resource files (VLTLON.XIF and
DanfossVSD_03.*) can be downloaded from
the Internet site www.danfoss.com/drives.
Echelon Corporation has also developed a set
of free plug-ins available through their web site
at www.echelon.com/plugin/default.htm. Also
intended for network design, these plug-ins
provide easy access to screens which simplify
the process of manually setting up the drive,
testing, and monitoring operation.
The LonWorks option card contains a NEURON
chip with a unique address. After hardware
installation, initialize the LonWorks option card.
Addressing nodes on the LonWorks network
is performed at installation time by an
installation tool or network management tool.
Addressing requires the retrieval of a node’s
NEURON ID. The NEURON ID is a 48 bit number
that identifies every manufactured NEURON
chip. There are several methods by which the
network software will initialize the drive
automatically. The network can recognize the
drive without action beyond proper
installation. The card is then ready to be
programmed for network operation. The VLT
LonWorks option supports three additional
methods of addressing a node:
1. Service
Pin
-
There
are
two
momentary-contact service switches that
send the NEURON ID over the network. If the
network software prompts the action, press
either service pin (SW1 or SW3) to transmit
the NEURON ID over the network. The service
pin locations are shown in the illustration in
Terminator and Service Switch Locations in
this manual.
2. Query and Wink - The LonWorks option
card is shipped with a domain of “0” and
subnet of “1.” Upon receiving the wink
command, the on-board green status LED
flashes so that the installer can locate the
node. The chip sends out its Neuron ID over
the network in response to the query
command.
3. NEURON ID Label - The VLT LonWorks
option card has a NEURON ID label that
displays the NEURON ID as a 12 digit
hexadecimal number. The installer can
manually enter the NEURON ID during
installation.
The drive may also be added to the network
upon initialization.
The VLT LonWorks network interface
consists of SNVTs and SCPT. The SNVTs
support the LonMark Controller Profile along
with VLT configuration, control and moni-
toring capabilities. Any combination of SNVTs
can be used to operate the VLT.
We also support the Functional Profile for
Variable Speed Drives version 1.1 from the
LonMark organisation.This profile defines a
set of Network variables (SNVT) and
configuration properties (SCPT).

Input
The most common functions for controlling the
VLT Adjustable Frequency Drive from the
LonWorks network are made readily available.
Those functions and their descriptions are
presented in the table below. The control word
function accesses additional drive capabilities
for network control.
The choice of open loop or closed loop
operation of the drive is selected in parameter
100, Configuration.
Using nviRefPcnt, the drive's reference is
expressed as a percentage of the reference
range. The range is set using parameters 204,
Min. Reference and 205, Max. Reference. In
open loop operation, reference represents the
drive's desired output speed. In this case, set
Min. Reference to 0 Hz and Max. Reference
equal to Max. Frequency in parameter 202.
In closed loop operation, reference represents
the desired setpoint. It is recommended that
parameters 204 and 205 be set equal to
parameters 201, Min. Frequency and 202,
Max. Frequency.
Start/Stop and Reset fault
SNVT_lev_disc. ST_OFF and ST_NUL are
interpreted as low or “0.” ST_LOW, ST_MED,
ST_HIGH, and ST_ON are interpreted as high
or “1.”
NOTE
To optimize network performance
and for proper drive operation,
use only one of following input
reference commands.
Reference 1
Network variable nviRefPcnt is a signed value.
It represents the desired percentage of the
VLT drive's reference range.
Range: -163.840 - 163.835.
All references provided to the drive are added
to the total reference value. If reference is to
be controlled by the LonWorks bus only, ensure
that all other reference inputs are zero. This
means that digital input terminals and analog
input terminals should not be used for reference
signals. The default setting (0%) should be
maintained for preset references in parameters
211 (215) through 214 (218). Also, in closed
loop operation, the default setting (0.0) should
be maintained for drive setpoints in parameters
418 (215) and 419 (218).

Drive
Feedback to
Network
The VLT LonWorks option provides 16 output
variables to the network containing important
drive and motor feedback data. Feedback data
is sent when there is a change in value. The
VLT LonWorks option will only transmit bound
network variables. Since some data changes
continuously, the transmission rate of those
variables is limited. Min send time specifies
the minimum time between transmissions of
variables.
The Drive Outputs (1, 2, or 3) will have a
maximum time between transmission set by the
Max send time. This function acts as a transmit
heartbeat and allows a controller node to
determine the health of the controller/VLT
connection. The Max send time function is
disabled when the configuration network
variable nciMaxsendT is not configured or is set
to “0.”

Drive status
NvoDrvStatus, nvoStatusWord, nvo-
DigitalInput, nvoAlarmWord, nvoWarning1 and
nvoWarning2 are all 16 bit Boolean values
using the SNVT_state variable type. Individual
bits represent specific drive status states. The
tables provided in Drive Status Bit Definitions
define each bit.
Drive output 1
Network variable nvoOutputPcnt provides an
analog indication of drive operation. In open
loop, this is the drive output frequency in
percentage within the reference range. To
avoid negative numbers, or numbers above
100%, set parameter 204, Min. Reference to
0 Hz, and parameter 205, Max. Reference
equal to parameter 202, Max. Frequency.
In closed loop, this is the drive's feedback
signal within the reference range. For best
operation, set Min. Reference to equal
parameter 413 (414), Min. Feedback, and
Max. Reference to equal parameter 414 (415),
Max. Feedback.
Drive output 2 and Drive Output 3
Output 2 is useful in open loop to report the
drive's output frequency in rad/sec. Output 3
in open loop reports the drive's output in Hz.
Note that in closed loop nvoOutputHz will
report the actual Feedback and not the output
frequency. For best results, set Min. Reference
to 0 Hz and Max. Reference equal to Max.
Frequency. These variable are rarely used in
closed loop.

Min send time
Sets the minimum period between
transmissions for all output network variables,
using the network variable nciMinSendT. This
function is used to keep the transmission of
variables that change continuously from
dominating the network communication.
Max receive time
This drive function is replaced by the value
set in parameter 803, Bus Time Out. The
LonWorks option will initiate bus time out
activities when the time set in parameter 803
expires without receiving an input network
variable directed to the drive. This acts like a
LonWorks receive heartbeat. The action taken
by the drive is determined by the setting
selected in parameter 804, Bus time out
function. See the parameter description
section of this manual. The value of
nciMaxReceiveT has no effect on the
operation of the drive.

Network Timer Functions
MG.60.N1.22 - VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark
VLT® 5000 / VLT® 6000 HVAC / VLT® 8000 AQUA
A controller node can monitor or modify any
VLT parameter by supporting the Parameter
access command and the Parameter access
response functions. These functions allow a
controller complete access to the features of
the VLT and the ability to configure drives with
predefined settings, using the network
variables nviParamCmd and nvoParamResp.
The following definitions describe how the
fields of SNVT_preset are used by the VLT
LonWorks option:
Learn
This field contains the function code for the
VLT. The values for this field are:
LN_RECALL (0),
LN_LEARN_CURRENT (1),
LN_LEARN_VALUE (2), and
LN_REPORT_VALUE (3).
LN_RECALL (0) and
LN_REPORT_VALUE (3)
are interpreted as read commands.
LN_LEARN_CURRENT (1) and
LN_LEARN_VALUE (2)
are interpreted as write commands.
Any other value in this field will result in an
error message in the Parameter access
response.
Selector
This field contains the VLT parameter
number, written in decimal notation, that is
to be written or read. Requests for
undefined parameters will result in an error
message in the Parameter access esponse.
VLT
Parameter
Access
The controlling device should compare the
parameter number of the response
message to the requested parameter
number to determine that the information
received is the requested information and
not a response to another controller or from
another VLT.
Value
This array contains the parameter
information to and from the VLT. All VLT
parameters use 16 bit signed or unsigned
values. The most significant 2 hex bytes of
data will be stored in value [0] and the least
significant 2 hex bytes of data will be stored
in value [3]. In the event of an error
message, the VLT will send 0xff in value [0]
and an error code in value [3]. The error
codes are defined in the section Parameter
Access Error Codes in this manual.
NOTE
Consult Conversion Index in
the VLT Instruction Manual
parameter table for correct
conversion factor for reading and
writing to and from drive.
Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Millisecond
The time fields are not supported by the
VLT LonWorks option. The VLT will respond
to parameter access requests as soon as
they are received. Any values in the time
fields of the Parameter access command
will be ignored. All time fields will be set to
“0” in the Parameter access response.

Example 1:
The examples below demonstrate use of the
parameter access command and parameter
access response functions of the controller
node. In the examples, the controller node has
a parameter access command SNVT_preset
called nvoParamCmd and a parameter
access response SNVT_preset called
nviParamResp. In writing to the drive correctly,
the access response simply repeats the
entered data. In the event of an error, an error
code is displayed in value [3]. See Parameter
Access Error Codes above.
Parameter

Error Codes
In the event of an error message in response
to a Parameter access command (see VLT
Parameter Access), the VLT sends 0xff in value

Standard
Object
Support
The VLT LonWorks option supports two
standard objects and three SNVTs, per the
LonMark standard object philosophy. The
standard objects are the Node Object
(containing the Object request, Object status,
and Object alarm) and the Controller object,
(containing the network variables described
in the preceding sections). The Object request
is a LonMark device used to obtain status and
alarm information from a node.
It is not necessary for a controller to support
the Node Object network variables. The
Object request, Object status and Object
alarm provide status and alarm information
for controllers that only support this type of
functionality. The status and alarm functions
described in the preceding sections contain
more drive specific information than Object
status and Object alarm.
1. The VLT sends an Object status
containing drive status information
and an Object alarm containing fault
informationin response to the
following Object requests:
RQ_NORMAL,
RQ_UPDATE_STATUS, and
RQ_UPDATE_ALARM.

Output
A controller node error is written to VLT
parameter 201, Output Frequency Low Limit,
with 80.0 Hz when the high limit is 60 Hz. The
conversion index is -1, with conversion factor 0.1.
The controller node sends the following
parameter write request to the VLT.
nvoParamCmd.learn =
LN_LEARN_CURRENT
nvoParamCmd.selector = 201
nvoParamCmd.value[0] = 0
nvoParamCmd.value[1] = 0
nvoParamCmd.value[2] = 3 hex
nvoParamCmd.value[3] = 20 hex (800
decimal)
The controller node receives the following
parameter access response from the VLT.
nviParamResp.learn = LN_NULL
nviParamResp.selector = 201
nviParamResp.value[0] = 0
nviParamResp.value[1] = 0
nviParamResp.value[2] = 0
nviParamResp.value[3] = 3 (illegal data
value)
nviParamResp.day = 0
nviParamResp.hour = 0
nviParamResp.minute = 0
nviParamResp.second = 0
nviParamResp.millisecond = 0
The nviRequest.object_id should be set
to “1” (controller node). The network
uses nviRequest, nvoStatus and
nvoAlarm variables for these functions.
2. The VLT sends an Object status
containing a bit map of supported
status fields in response to all other
Object requests, including undefined
requests.
3. The VLT Object status supports the
following status fields: invalid_id,
invalid_request,open_circuit,
out_of_service, electrical_fault,
comm_failure, manual_control, and
in_alarm. All other fields are always
set to “0.”
4. The VLT sends an Object alarm
following any set or reset of a drive
fault condition.
5. The Object alarm supports the
AL_ALM_CONDITION and
AL_NO_CONDITION alarm types.

Function:
The time out timer is triggered at the first
reception of a valid control word, i.e.,
bit 10 = ok.
The time out function can be activated in two
different ways:
1. The drive does not receive a
LonWorks command addressed to it
within the specified time.
2. Parameter 805 is set to “bit 10 = 0
time out” and a control word with “bit
10 = 0” is sent to the drive.
The VLT remains in the time out state until
one of the following four conditions is true:
1. A valid control word (Bit 10 = ok) is
received and the drive is reset
through the bus, the digital input
terminals or the local control panel.
(Reset is only necessary when the
time out function Stop w/trip is
selected.) Control via LonWorks is
resumed using the received control
word.
2. Local control via the local control
panel is enabled.
3. Parameter 928, Access to process
control, is set to Disabled.
Normal control via the digital input
terminals and the RS-485 interface is
now enabled.
# Factory setting
4. Parameter 804, Bus time out function,
is set to Off.
Control via LonWorks is resumed and
the most recent control word is used.
Description of Selections:
• Freeze output frequency. Maintain
present output frequency until
communication is resumed.
• Stop with auto restart. Stop and
automatically restart when
communication is resumed.
• Output frequency = JOG freq. Drive
will produce JOG frequency set in
parameter 209 (213), Jog frequency,
until communication is resumed.
• Output frequency = Max. freq. Drive
will produce maximum output
frequency (set in parameter 202,
Output frequency) until
communication is resumed.
• Stop with trip. Drive stops and
requires a reset command before it
will restart.
• Control without LonWorks. Control via
LonWorks is disabled. Control is
possible via digital input terminals
and/or standard RS-485 interface
until LonWorks communication is
resumed.
• Select setup 4. Setup 4 is selected in
parameter 002 (004), Active setup,
and settings of setup 4 are used.
Parameter 002 (004) is not reset to
the original value when
communication is resumed.
VLT 5000 parameters are shown in parenthesis, where applicable.

Function:
According to the drive's standard
communications profile, control word and
speed reference will be ignored if bit 10 of the
control word is 0. Parameter 805 lets the user
change the function of bit 10. This is some
times necessary, as some masters set all bits
to 0 in various fault situations. In these cases,
it makes sense to change the function of bit
10 so that the VLT is commanded to stop
(coast) when all bits are 0.
Description of Selections:
• No function. Bit 10 is ignored, i.e.,
control word and speed reference are
always valid.
• Bit 10 = 1 >CTW active. The control
word and speed reference are
ignored if bit 10 = 0.
• Bit 10 = 0 >CTW active. The control
word and speed reference are
ignored if bit 10 = 1. If all bits of the
control word are 0, the VLT reaction
will be coasting.
• Bit 10 = 0 >time out. The time out
function selected in parameter 804 is
activated when bit 10 is 0.

parameters 503 through 508 determine the
interaction between various LonWorks and
digital drive input commands. See the
VLT Instruction Manual for details.
When this parameter is set to Store active
setup, LonWorks downloaded parameters are
written to EEPROM and stored. Store edit
setup stores the setup selected in parameter
970. Store all setups stores all setups in
parameter 970. When finished (appx. 15 sec.),
it automatically returns to No action. Any
parameters values written via the serial bus
with No action selected are lost when power
is removed from the drive. The function is only
activated with the VLT in stop mode.
