GV3000/SE 1-400 HP, CS3000 Software
Control and configure GV3000/FlexPak 3000 drives with a personal computer
The CS3000 is a Windows(r) based software program which can be used to configure and operate GV3000/FlexPak 3000 drives from a personal computer (PC). This software provides many capabilities including the ability to:
- Create, store, upload, download, and print drive configurations
- Drive control (start, stop, forward, reverse, etc.)
- Monitor drive status (faults, alarms, ready, etc.)
- Drive metering (Output speed, output current, etc.)
- Monitor and change drive parameters in English instead of codes
- Compare drive and PC configurations
- Read and reset the drive fault/alarm log
File Management
From the "File Menu", drive configurations can be created, opened, saved, and printed. Once a file has been opened it can be downloaded to the drive. Configurations can be saved as files for future use or as a permanent record. This makes it simple to duplicate configurations for drives on repeat applications.
From the "Configuration Menu", configuration files can be edited, uploaded from a drive, downloaded to a drive, and compared. This means that drive configurations can be developed in the convenience of an office setting using a PC, and later downloaded to the drive which may be located on the factory floor.
Drive Control
Drive control from a PC speeds start-ups, minimizes time spent in troubleshooting, and provides a convenient method of monitoring drive status. Drive controls from the CS3000 include:
- Control Source Select
- Forward/Reverse
- Auto/Manual
- Start
- Stop/Reset
- Jog
- Set Speed Reference
There is a Drive Control Panel which displays drive output conditions such as:
- FlexPak 3000
- Selected Reference
- Motor Speed
- Armature Volts
- Motor Current
- Percent Load
| GV3000 set for V/Hz | GV3000 set for Vector |
|---|---|
| Selected Reference | Selected Reference |
| Output Speed | Motor Speed |
| Output Frequency | Motor Current |
| Output Amps | Motor Voltage |
| Output Volts | Motor Torque |
| Output kW | Output kW |
Configuration
A "Drive Status" pop-up window can also be viewed anytime a drive connect is performed. This window can be moved, closed or left where it is displayed. The information provided by this status window is useful for checking the overall condition of the drive, the connection, and fault/alarm status.
A "Fault/Alarm Log" window is automatically displayed if drive is connected to a PC and the CS3000 software is running. The fault or alarm number, description, and time stamp are displayed in the fault/alarm log.
