2.1.1 Purpose of the technology applications
The stepped Inverter Drives 8400 series provides solutions for simple to complex applications –
depending on the user's experience and knowledge about the handling of drives and drive tasks.
On the one hand, a great scope of standard drive tasks for frequency inverters is covered by the
technology applications offered by Lenze, and on the other hand, the user is relieved from time-
consuming programming activities. In practice, some drive tasks are alike so that minor
modifications of the corresponding technology applications lead to quick results.
Other important features of technology applications are:
• Direct implementation of drive tasks without recreating a function block interconnection inside
the device
• Operation via keypad and/or operation via convenient operator dialogs in the «Engineer».
• Commissioning via few operating and diagnosing parameters (local keypad operation).
• Achieving a transparency as high as possible via the integrated functionality of the device by
representing signal flow diagrams.
• Provision of a basic functionality suitable and often sufficient for many applications.
2.1.2 Application cases for a technology application
You should use a technology application if
• the task can be solved completely or to a great extent by the basic functionality of the
technology application.
• the end customer does not want to create the comprehensive core functions of the
corresponding technology on his own.
• the creation time for a project is to be reduced by using the ready-made technology application
• the end customer wants to build upon the know-how of Lenze.

Tip!
If the end customer of the machine does not want to use ready-made solutions of Lenze, it
is also possible from the "HighLine" version onwards to implement individual drive
solutions by means of the "free interconnection".
Here, a technology application can be used as starting basis, which has to be adapted to the
requirement by a change or extension via function block editor (see the following chapter).
