OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS DANFOSS ENG
Rotor detection
This function is the recommended choice for applications
where the motor starts from standstill, e.g., pumps or
conveyors. On some motors, an acoustic sound is heard
when the impulse is sent out. This does not harm the
motor.
Parking
This function is the recommended choice for applications
where the motor is rotating at slow speed, e.g.,
windmilling in fan applications. 2-06 Parking Current and
2-07 Parking Time can be adjusted. Increase the factory
setting of these parameters for applications with high
inertia.
Start the motor at nominal speed. If the application does
not run well, check the VVC
+
PM settings. Recommen-
dations for different applications can be seen in Table 5.6.

Table 5.6 Recommendations for Different Applications
If the motor starts oscillating at a certain speed, increase
1-14 Damping Gain. Increase the value in small steps.
Depending on the motor, a good value for this parameter
can be 10% or 100% higher than the default value.
Starting torque can be adjusted in 1-66 Min. Current at Low
Speed. 100% provides nominal torque as starting torque.

Automatic Energy Optimization (AEO)
NOTICE!
AEO is not relevant for permanent magnet motors.
Automatic Energy Optimization (AEO) is a procedure that
minimizes voltage to the motor, reducing energy
consumption, heat, and noise.
To activate AEO, set parameter 1-03 Torque Characteristics
to [2] Auto Energy Optim. CT or [3] Auto Energy Optim. VT.
5.4.6
Automatic Motor Adaptation (AMA)
NOTICE!
AMA is not relevant for PM motors.
Automatic motor adaptation (AMA) is a procedure that
optimizes compatibility between the adjustable frequency
drive and the motor.
•
The adjustable frequency drive builds a
mathematical model of the motor for regulating
output motor current. The procedure also tests
the input phase balance of electrical power. It
compares the motor characteristics with the data
entered in parameters 1-20 to 1-25.
•
The motor shaft does not turn and no harm is
done to the motor while running the AMA.
•
Some motors may be unable to run the complete
version of the test. In that case, select [2] Enable
reduced AMA.
•
If an output filter is connected to the motor,
select Enable reduced AMA.
•
If warnings or alarms occur, see chapter 7.4 List of
Warnings and Alarms.
•
Run this procedure on a cold motor for best
results.
To run AMA
1. Press [Main Menu] to access parameters.
2.
Scroll to parameter group 1-** Load and Motor
and press [OK].
3.
Scroll to parameter group 1-2* Motor Data and
press [OK].
4.
Scroll to 1-29 Automatic Motor Adaptation (AMA)
and press [OK].
5.
Select [1] Enable complete AMA and press [OK].
