	During a generator to line transfer, the drive attempts to catch an already moving motor and faults with OL or OV. What steps can we take to prevent these alarms from occuring? Posted Date: 09/16/2013 Answer: Make sure the motor/drive system is auto tuned. This provides the drive with information necessary to successfully catch a moving motor. For more information please refer to SIEPYAIZ1B01, the technical manual.

	During a generator to line power switchover, Uv1 results. Restart is not attempted. A manual reset is required for drives running motors. The transfer takes less than a second. Is there any fix for this issue? Posted Date: 09/16/2013 Answer: Setting L2-01 (Momentary Power Loss Operation Selection) to setting 2: Enable while CPU is active. Enabling Power loss ride while CPU is active, causes a baseblock, a hard stop of the firing mechanisms to the motor. This prevents a Uv1 condition, and allows the drive to ramp up when the under volt condition is over. This fix may need speed search to be enabled, please see the related FAQ link for OL or OV after generator to line transfer for assistance. For additional information, please refer to SIEPYAIZ1B01, the technical manual.

	Do you need to have the Control Power on in order to use the Dynamic Braking features of the Sigma-5 Servopack? Posted Date: 03/06/2014 Answer: If the Control Power is turned off before the Servopack receives the SV_OFF command, then the stopping method will vary by the Servopack model. These models will stop their motors by coasting in this scenario: SGDV-330A, -470A, -550A, -590A, -780A, -280D, -370D. These models will stop their motors by using the dynamic brake in this scenario: All other Servopacks except: SGDV-330A, -470A, -550A, -590A, -780A, -280D, -370D. If the Main Power is turned off before the Servopack receives the SV_OFF command then the servomotor will be stopped by use of the dynamic brake functionality. If you wish to have the servomotor coast to a stop when the Main Power circuit or the Control Power circuit is turned off before the SV_OFF command is received, then you will have to use an external method to disconnect the UVW phases to the motor in this scenario. If the SV_OFF command is received before the Main Power circuit and the Control Power circuit are turned off then the stopping method can be controlled by parameters in the Servopack (PN001).
