ASSIGNMENT OF LOGIC OUTPUTS (R2 OR LOx)

The following is a description of the possible assignments of the Logic Outputs (R2 or LOx) on the
ATV58 TRX drive controller and the optional I/O Extension Cards.
Drive Running
The logic output is high (state 1, 24 Vdc nominal) if the motor is drawing current, or if a run comman d is
generated with a zero speed reference.
Output Contactor Control
The Output Contactor Control function enables the ATV58 TRX drive controller to control a contactor
located between the drive and the motor. The request to close the contactor is made when the Run
signal is given. The request to open the contactor is made when the Run signal is removed and the
deceleration ramp is completed.
The function is for use in applications where an air gap opening in the motor circuit is required. The
connection method illustrated in the diagram below is required.
This function may also be used:
For applications involving machines where the oper ation re quires po w er to th e motor t o be rem oved
when there is a stop to prevent any possibility of an untimely restart (for example, a materials
handling carousel where items are put down and then picked up manually).
To implement a drive controller by pass circuit and to allow acros s-the-line oper ation of the motor . The
contactor on the drive controller is open in bypass mode to prevent applying line side power to the
output of the drive controller.
Reference Frequency Attained (Speed Attained)
The logic output is high (state 1, 24 Vdc nominal) if the output motor frequency is equal to the speed
reference value.
High Speed Attained
The logic output is high (state 1, 24 Vdc nominal) if the output motor frequen cy is equal to the hig h-speed
value.
Frequency Threshold Attained
The logic output is high (state 1, 24 Vdc nominal) if the output motor frequency is greater tha n or equal
to the configured frequency threshold. The frequency thresh old is fa ctory set at 5 0 or 6 0 Hz ( depending
on the position of the 50/60 Hz switch) and has an adjustable range of low speed to high speed. Two
different levels can be configured to correspond to two logic output assignments.
