The threshold detector functions are always active even if the source and destination are not routed to valid parameters. If the source is not a valid parameter then the source value is taken as 0. The update rate for each of the threshold detector functions is always 4ms.
The following description is for threshold detector 1, but threshold detector 2 operates in the same way. The level of the parameter defined by Threshold Detector 1 Source (12.003) is converted to a percentage and compared to Threshold Detector 1 Level (12.004) with hysteresis to give Threshold Detector 1 Output (12.001) as follows:
Source | Threshold Detector 1 Output (12.001) |
Source < Lower threshold | 0 |
Lower threshold ≤ Source < Upper threshold | No change of state |
Source ≥ Upper threshold | 1 |
Lower threshold = Threshold Detector 1 Level (12.004) - (Threshold Detector 1 Hysteresis (12.005) / 2)
Upper threshold = Threshold Detector 1 Level (12.004) + (Threshold Detector 1 Hysteresis (12.005) / 2)
The output value can then be inverted with Threshold Detector 1 Output Invert (12.006) before being routed to the destination defined by Threshold Detector 1 Destination (12.007).

The variable selector functions are always active even if the source and destination are not routed to valid parameters. If a source is not a valid parameter then the source value is taken as 0. The update rate for each of the variable selector functions is always 4ms.
The following description is for variable selector 1, but variable selector 2 operates in the same way. The source parameters selected with Variable Selector 1 Source 1 (12.008) and Variable Selector 1 Source 2 (12.009) are converted to a percentage value, scaled with Variable Selector 1 Source 1 Scaling (12.013) and Variable Selector 1 Source 2 Scaling (12.014) respectively and then combined with a function defined by Variable Selector 1 Mode (12.010) to give Variable Selector 1 Output (12.012) as a percentage value. If Variable Selector 1 Enable (12.016) = 1 then the function operates normally. If Variable Selector 1 Enable (12.016) = 0 then Variable Selector 1 Output (12.012) = 0.00% and any states within the function are reset (i.e. the time constant function accumulator is held at zero). If the value of Variable Selector 1 Mode (12.010) is changed then all internal function state are also reset.
The table below shows the functions that can be selected with Variable Selector 1 Mode (12.010).

7: Ramp | Input 1 is an input to a linear ramp function where the time to ramp from 0.00% to 100.00% of the input parameter range is defined by Variable Selector 1 Control (12.015) in seconds. e.g. if the input parameter is at 50% of its range, the output value will reach 50% in 50% of the time set in Variable Selector 1 Control (12.015) |
8: Modulus | | Input 1 | |
9: Powers | If Variable Selector 1 Control (12.015) = 0.02 then Output = Input2 / 100.00% Else if Variable Selector 1 Control (12.015) = 0.03 then Output = Input3 / (100.00%)2 Else Output = Input 1 |

The functions of BC Brake Release (12.040) and BC Enable (12.041) are the same in all drive modes and are described below. The functions of other brake controller parameters vary between drive modes, and these are described in separate sections.
The mechanical brake control function can be used to control an electro-mechanical brake via digital I/O.
BC Brake Release (12.040) = 0 when the brake should be applied and 1 when the brake should be released. Normally this should be routed to a digital output to control the mechanical brake.
If BC Enable (12.041) = 0 then the brake controller is disabled. The following parameters which are used by the brake controller to operate the drive are reset to 0 on the transition of BC Enable (12.041) from 1 to 0.
Parameter |
Force Reference Direction (01.057) |
Ramp Hold (02.003) |
In closed loop mode, the torque produced may reduce as the frequency passes through zero. A brake controller similar to the one used for open loop mode is provided as shown in the diagram below.
The brake controller operates in the same way as the open loop mode brake controller except for the following differences.
Flux and current detection
The flux and current detection signal is made active to allow the brake to be released when the motor flux exceeds 90% of its rated level. The flux and current detection signal remains active unless the motor current falls below BC Lower Current Threshold (12.043) or the drive is disabled. BC Lower Current Threshold (12.043) is used to detect if the motor has been disconnected from the drive and should be set to a suitable level to detect this condition.

If BC Enable (12.041) = 0, the brake controller is disabled.
If BC Enable (12.041) = 1, the brake controller is enabled with I/O set up to control the brake via the relay output. Drive healthy is re-routed to digital I/O.
If BC Enable (12.041) = 2, the brake controller is enabled with I/O set up to control the brake via digital I/O. Drive healthy is routed to the relay output.
If BC Enable (12.041) = 3, the brake controller is enabled, but no parameters are set up to select the brake output.

Action will only occur if the drive is inactive, not in UU state and no User Actions are running. Otherwise, the parameter will return to its pre altered value on exit from edit mode.
All parameters are saved if this parameter changes.
