Application macros, control location EXT1/EXT2

Chapter overview

This chapter describes the intended use, operation and the default control
connections of the standard application macros. It also describes how to save a user
macro, and how to recall it.

Overview of macros

Application macros are preprogrammed parameter sets. While starting up the drive,
you typically select one of the macros - the one that is best suited to your needs -
with parameter 99.02, make the essential changes and save the result as a user
macro.
There is a crane macro and two user macros. The table below contains a summary
of the macros and describes the suitable applications.

Control locations EXT1/EXT2

Two control locations are used in the crane macro for fast switch-over between
different modes. Control location EXT1 is used for the stand-alone mode, and control
location EXT2 is used for the Master/Follower and Synchro control mode.
Suitable Applications
Crane control
You can save the customised standard macro, that is the parameter settings
including group 99, and the results of the motor identification into the permanent
memory, and recall the data at a later time. Two user macros are essential when
switching between two different motors is required.
