TB316 rev3 – Delta C2000 VFD Setup
DELTA C2000 SETTINGS WITH OR WITHOUT EMC PG01L OR EMC PG02L POSITIONING BOARD
Note 1 Encoder must be 1 1 with the spindle If motor has a reduced ratio be sure to set 10 5
Note 2 Speed limitation for a PG01L is 300k/s Or 17578 RPM with a 1024 line encoder The speed limitation for
a PG02L is 30k/s Or 1758 RPM with a 1024 Line encoder
The initial parameter configuration is for bench testing the drive with motor The panel operator will be used to
command motion for these initial tests
Initial setup
• If this is the first time the drive has been powered on then the panel operator will show the Start
Wizard The Start Wizard will go through the basic initial setup for the drive
◦ You may proceed through the Start Wizard to set
1 Calendar to correct date and time
2 Parameter 01 01 to the rated frequency of the motor
3 Parameter 01 02 to the rated voltage of the motor
4 Parameter 05 01 to the rated full load current of the motor
5 Parameter 05 04 to the number of poles of the motor
6 Parameter 05 03 to the rated speed of the motor
7 Parameter 01 07 to the minimum output frequency for the motor If unknown leave as default
8 Parameter 01 00 to the maximum output frequency for the motor If unknown leave as default
9 Parameter 00 20 to 0 to use the panel operator for initial drive and motor function testing
10 Parameter 00 21 to 0 to use the panel operator for initial drive and motor function testing
11 Parameter 01 43 to select the appropriate V/F curve If unknown leave as default
12 Parameter 01 12 to set acceleration time This may be left as default
13 Parameter 01 13 to set deceleration time This may be left as default

• If it is not the first time the drive has been powered on then it is recommended to reset the drive
to factory defaults Set parameter 00 02 to 10 to reset a 60Hz system to factory defaults If using
a 50Hz system set to 9
1 Power cycle the drive after setting this parameter
2 If you see "ERR" instead of "END" when setting the parameter check to see if any inputs are
assigned to function #38
3 After power cycling the Start Wizard will appear Follow the instructions above to enter the initial
settings
▪ Press MENU then ENTER on the first option to enter the parameter setting menu
▪ Use the arrow keys to navigate to parameter group 05 then press ENTER
▪ Select parameter 05 02 and press ENTER to edit Use the arrow keys to set it to the motor’s
power rating in kW Press ENTER to confirm the setting value
• Initial test run
1 Verify that it is safe for the motor to rotate
2 Press ESC on the panel operator until it returns to the initial display Use the up and down arrow
keys to select frequency command Press ENTER to edit the frequency command Set it to 1/3 of
rated frequency or other suitably low speed Press ENTER to confirm the setting
3 Press RUN and observe motor motion If this spindle is bidirectional press FWD/REV to test the
reverse direction as well
4 Press STOP/RESET to stop the motor
At this point the motor should be mounted to the machine and attached to the spindle The encoder
should also be installed Axis drives and motors should be installed and tuned ATC motion I/O and
PLC logic should be verified and working
Set frequency command input parameter to accept analog inputs If not using encoder then stop here
• Motor parameter autotune
1 Navigate to parameter 05 00 and set it to either 1 for rolling or 2 for static motor parameter autotune
Confirm that motor is clear to run and press RUN Wait for this process to complete
2 Verify that parameters 05 05 to 05 09 have been updated

TB316 rev3 – Delta C2000 VFD Setup
• Encoder and motor control mode setup
1 Go to parameter group 10
▪ Set parameter 10 00 to match encoder type This should typically be set to 1 for A/B/Z
quadrature encoders
▪ Set parameter 10 01 to the encoder line count Typical value is 1024 lines/rev
▪ Set parameter 10 02 to the encoder operation mode and phase sequence For A/B/Z quadrature
encoders this should be 1 or 2
2 Navigate to parameter group 00 Set parameter 00 11 to 3 for IMFOCPG mode
• Encoder and motor control mode test run
1 Confirm it is safe to operate the motor Press RUN and observe motor rotation for at least 10
seconds
▪ If panel operator displays “Warning PGFB PG FBK Warn” the setting of parameter 10 02 is
incorrect If parameter 10 02 was set to 1 then set it to 2 and vice versa
2 Press STOP/RESET to stop the motor
• Inertia autotuning
1 Set frequency to 1/3rd of motor rating This is typically 20 Hz
2 Navigate to parameter group 01 Set parameters 01 12 and 01 13 to 1 5 seconds
3 Set parameter 11 00 to 2 to begin inertia autotuning process
4 Navigate to parameter 11 01 and leave it open for editing
5 Press RUN Wait for the motor to come up to speed then press FWD/REV to toggle between forward
and reverse rotation
6 Watch the value of parameter 11 01 change Keep pressing FWD/REV until the value stabilizes
7 Once parameter 11 01 is stable press STOP/RESET to stop the motor
8 Press ENTER to save the value
9 Set parameter 11 00 to 1 for automatic adjustment of speed control regulator
• Orientation position setup
1 Home the machine
2 Move Z axis to the top of travel
3 Set the panel operator display to encoder counts
▪ Press the down arrow several times until DC BUS voltage is selected
▪ Press the left arrow several times until G xxxx is displayed
4 Locate the index pulse by rotating the spindle one revolution by hand
5 Bring the ATC to the tool changing position
▪ Umbrella type Hold Aux12 and command M80
▪ Swingarm type Hold Aux12 and command M13
6 Slowly jog the Z axis down and rotate the spindle by hand until the “half key” is lined up with the
notch in the ATC
7 Record the encoder counts shown on the panel operator display
8 Enter parameter group 11
▪ Set parameter 11 66 to the recorded value
▪ Set parameter 11 65 to 0

Additional information
To see a real time analog load meter ensure that you have the load meter signal from the VFD to the Hickory
connected to Analog Input 1 You will will also have to set P35 to an axis for the spindle for this functionality to
work
The Load Meter will display as a thin bar below the Spindle Speed meter on the main screen of CNC12; the
image below shows the spindle load meter at a reading of 25%
