Initial Operator Interface Configuration
The PowerFlex 7000 “B” Frame medium voltage drive uses the PanelView 550
terminal as the operator interface (
). The medium voltage
drive terminal only uses the PanelView interface hardware, incorporating unique
software with a modified faceplate.
This chapter describes how to configure the operator interface. To complete
initial drive programming, see
Drive Programming and Parameters on page 205
Specific references to a particular parameter are only for illustrative purposes.
Refer to the PowerFlex 7000 Medium Voltage AC Drive Technical Data for
further information regarding drive parameters.
The interface limits user access to specific configuration features on the basis of
defined security levels. For more information on defining these levels, see
Configuring Access Levels on page 210
.
Terminology
Editing field – An area of a screen in which you can type data via the keypad.
Flash – A type of memory that indefinitely stores information and is unaffected
by power loss. The drive uses this format for firmware, parameters, and data file
storage.
NVRAM – Non-Volatile Random Access Memory is unaffected by power loss.
The drive uses this format for long term data storage (for example, parameters
and alarm queues).
Parameter – A memory location at which the drive reads or writes data. You must
configure operational parameters before using the drive. Configuring a parameter
changes the drive behavior. You may add additional parameters or change them
while the drive is in use, in order to adjust its operation, (i.e. editing a speed
parameter).
Operation – Tasks that the drive performs, or that you must do with the drive.
Completing a task may involve multiple screens; for example, modifying a
parameter is an operation requiring two or more screens.
PanelView 550 – The PanelView 550 integrates a hardware terminal and a
software package into a single operator interface. The medium voltage drive uses
the hardware portion of the product with different software than default
PanelView software.
