Drive Configuration and Programming

SMARTCARD

This is a standard feature that enables simple configuration of parameters in a variety of ways. The SmartCard can:

  • ‘Clone’ a complete set of parameters for serial production
  • Save multiple complete sets of parameters
  • Set up an application as parameter differences from default
  • Automatically save all user parameter changes for maintenance purposes
  • Load complete motor map parameters
  • Read/write SmartCard information from within SM-Applications and SM-Applications Lite programs.

The drive only communicates with the SmartCard when commanded to read or write, meaning the card may be “hot swapped”.

Control Techniques Unidrive SP Communication Cable.COMMUNICATION CABLE

Using a special RS232 to RS485 converter you can connect the PC to the RJ45 drive. A special pre-made cable is available from Control Techniques for this purpose – this CT Comms Cable is used with other Control Techniques products that use a RJ45/RS485 connector such as the Commander SE and Commander SK.

The RJ45 socket is located under a small flap on the front of the Unidrive SP just below the keypad. The pin-out of this connector is described in the Unidrive SP User Guide.
