How do you configure a Freewheel Stop and a Run Permissive on ATV32 and ATV320 drives?

Resolution:

You can configure both a Freewheel Stop (instead of a ramp stop) and a Run Permissive input directly from the drive keypad by following the steps below.


Configure Freewheel Stop (Always Active)

To set the drive so it always performs a Freewheel Stop:

  1. Press the dial on the keypad.
  2. Navigate to:
    ConF → FULL → FUn- → Stt → Stt
  3. Set the parameter to nSt.

This ensures the drive performs a freewheel stop rather than a ramp stop.


Configure Run Permissive Input

To assign a Run Permissive using a digital/logic input:

  1. Press the dial on the keypad.
  2. Navigate to:
    ConF → FULL → FUn- → Stt → nSt
  3. Assign nSt to the desired Logic/Digital Input (DIx / LIx).

The drive will only be allowed to run when this input is in the correct state.


Important Notes

  • Freewheel Stop (nSt) is an active-low input.
  • If the assigned input is not wired, the drive will remain locked in the nSt state and will not run.
  • Until the actual permissive contact is installed, add a jumper from 24 V to the assigned DIx/LIx input to allow the drive to run.
