Using Macro Mode and Getting a Quick StartA special Macro programming mode is available with the Vacon 50X series of AC drives. The Macro pro-gramming mode allows you to customize quickly the most common parameters for your application inthe Level 1 group. Macro mode provides special parameters for activating modes of operation by macros,program sequencer, or serial communications.Parameters important to the drive’s operation are also included in Macro mode. Although these param-eters are also available with standard programming, the Macro mode allows you to easily configure thedrive with essential parameters.Macros configure what advanced functions will be active in the drive. A macro can also change the defaultor visibility of a parameter within the programming levels. Parameter 490 (Appl Macro) configures whatmacro will be active in the drive. Parameter 491 (Seq Appl) configures the visibility of sequencer param-eters and the time base of the sequencer. Parameter 492 (SIO Visible) configures whether or not SIO pa-rameters are visible. (See page 50.)6.1 Entering Macro ModeTo enter the Macro mode, press and hold the PROGram key for more than three seconds. The drive thenenters Macro mode and displays “Hold PROG for Macro Mode.” Following is a list of the different macrosavailable and their features. A description of parameters used in Macro mode begins on page 49.Factory The Factory macro provides a simple way to restore the factory defaultparameter listings.Fan The Fan macro provides a basic set-up for Fan applications. Parameterssuch as the V/Hz curve and terminal strip operation are available in Level1 programming.Fan w/ PI The Fan w/ PI macro allows for a simple set-up for Fan applications re-quiring process control. Parameters such as the V/Hz curve, terminalstrip operation, and PI configuration parameters are available in Level 1programming.Pump The Pump macro provides a basic set-up for Pump applications. Param-eters such as the V/Hz curve and terminal strip operation are availablein Level 1 programming.Pump w/ PI The Pump w/ PI macro allows for a simple set-up for Pump applicationsrequiring process control. Parameters such as the V/Hz curve, terminalstrip operation, and PI configuration parameters are available in Level 1programming.Vector The Vector macro activates the sensorless vector control algorithm.When an operation requires low speed and high torque, this macroshould be activated.6.2 Description of Parameters Used in Macro ModeParameters 490, 491, and 492 are used only in the Macro mode. Parameters 509, 510, 511, 801, and 810are used in both Macro and Level 2 programming. Vacon 50X parameters are described in “Vacon 50X Pa-rameters” on page 59 of this manual.
