3. 6. 5. Configuring the drive in "ATV38 Interchangeability" mode
In order to use the Altivar 38’s periodic input/output variables rather than those of the Altivar 61, you need to set switch 1 to the ON position and restart the drive.
• | Switch 0 | (OFF) | : Altivar 61 mode |
• | Switch 1 | (ON) | : 8 serie mode |
The PowerSuite software workshop will activate 8 serie mode once the configuration has been transferred.
Configuring the drive control mode
Check and configure as necessary the control mode applied to the drive in the [1.6 - COMMAND]
•[Profile] (CHCF) = [8 serie] (SE8)
3. 6. 6. PLC configuration and application
In the TSX Premium master’s Fipio configurator, only the base module described in the table below is compatible with an Altivar 61 used in 8 serie mode.

3. 6. 7. Altivar 38 PKW indexed periodic variables
In "ATV38 Interchangeability" mode, we do not recommend using the PKW service for the Altivar 61 indexed periodic variables, as this service is only designed for accessing the Altivar 61 parameters.
You should, therefore, use the PKW service for the Altivar 38 indexed periodic variables, as described in the User’s Manual for the Altivar 38
3. 6. 8. Managing loss of Fipio communication
In order to imitate the Altivar 38’s behavior on disconnection of the bus ("stop on ramp" imposed by the drive), you should configure it using the integrated display terminal or the graphic display terminal.
In the [COMMUNICATION FAULTS]
Hence, when the drive is disconnected from the Fipio bus, the CNF fault will be activated and the value of parameter CLL will cause the motor to stop on a ramp.
3. 6. 9. Communication fault
Fipio communication faults are indicated by the red RD LED on the card.
Parameter [Network fault]
Value Description of the values of the [Network fault]
0No fault
1Initialization fault on the Fipio card (hardware problem)
2Time out for receipt of periodic variables destined for the drive. This time out can be set by the network configuration software.
3Hardware fault on the Fipio card
4Hardware fault on the Fipio card
5Master PLC changes from Run to STOP
