How do I program the ATV212 drive for a 4-20mA speed reference?

Hvordan kan vi hjælpe dig i dag?

Issue:
ATV212 drive programming, for a 4-20mA speed reference.

Product Line:
ATV212, Altivar 212

Environment:
All

Cause:
Default setup for the ATV212 is a 0-10V speed reference on VIA.

Resolution:

The ATV212 drive comes with FMOd = 1 (VIA reference). Confirm this setting is correct in the drive.
Change parameter F201 to 20 (VIA speed reference level 1, factory default is 0). Setting F201 to 20 tells the analog input minimum to 4mA instead of 0mA.
On the control board of the drive, find the dip switch SW100 (above the VIA and VIB terminals), then slide the VIA dip switch over to " I " for current.
Check the connection 4-20mA signal going to terminals VIA (input) and CC (common).
