abb acs 560 parameter list

The ABB ACS560 is a highly versatile, reliable, and easy-to-configure variable speed drive (VSD) designed primarily for standard industrial applications like pumps, fans, and mixers.

When commissioning or troubleshooting an ACS560 drive, having a quick-reference parameter list is essential. Below is a breakdown of the most frequently used parameter groups, complete with their functions and typical default settings.

1. Primary Motor Data (Group 99)

Input data directly from the motor nameplate to enable exact vector calculation and accurate thermal protection overloads.

Parameter Code Parameter Name Description / Recommended Setting
99.03 Motor Type Asynchronous motor (AM) or Permanent magnet motor (PM)
99.04 Motor Control Mode Vector (precise speed/torque) or Scalar (basic multi-motor/fan/pump control)
99.06 Motor Nominal Current Enter the exact Full Load Amps (A) listed on the motor nameplate
99.07 Motor Nominal Voltage Enter nominal voltage (e.g., 400V or 415V)
99.08 Motor Nominal Frequency Typically 50.00 Hz or 60.00 Hz matching your utility grid
99.09 Motor Nominal Speed Enter full-load synchronous motor RPM (e.g., 1440 RPM)
99.10 Motor Nominal Power Enter exact rated kilowatts (kW) or horsepower (HP) values

2. Start, Stop, and Direction (Group 20)

Configures source control signals for remote or digital terminal execution inputs.

Parameter Code Parameter Name Description / Recommended Setting
20.01 Ext1 Commands Defines terminal interface source (e.g., In1 Start via Digital Input 1)
20.03 Ext1 Start Function Defines starting behavior mechanism (e.g., Normal or Pulse trigger)
20.04 Ext1 Stop Function Determines decelerate style: Coast to stop or Controlled Ramp down
20.21 Direction Sets permissible rotation: Forward, Reverse, or Request (bi-directional)

3. Speed & Frequency Reference (Group 22 & 28)

Maps where the drive obtains its operational running speeds and scaling constraints.

Parameter Code Parameter Name Description / Recommended Setting
22.11 Speed Ref1 Source AI1 scaled (Analog Input 1, typical 0-10V potentiometer) or AI2 (4-20mA)
28.11 Frequency Ref1 Source Sets frequency scaling reference point source when operating in Scalar mode
30.11 Minimum Speed Minimum allowed threshold velocity speed limit (RPM)
30.12 Maximum Speed Maximum structural safety velocity limit (RPM)
30.13 Minimum Frequency Minimum operational scalar boundary cycle output (typically 0.00 Hz)
30.14 Maximum Frequency Maximum scalar operational peak frequency parameter (typically 50.00 / 60.00 Hz)

4. Acceleration & Deceleration Ramps (Group 23)

Manages soft-start durations to limit line surges and physical gear stresses.

Parameter Code Parameter Name Description / Recommended Setting
23.12 Acceleration Time 1 Time duration to accelerate safely from zero standstill to maximum scale limit (e.g., 10.0s)
23.13 Deceleration Time 1 Time duration to brake systematically from peak maximum down to rest state (e.g., 10.0s)
Pro-Tip for Successful Commissioning

Always perform an Identification Run (ID Run via Parameter 99.13) immediately after inputting nameplate parameters if operating under Vector Control. This steps the drive through an automated diagnostic sequence to capture exact internal magnetic fluxes and winding resistance values for optimized operational energy savings.
