ABB ACS580 I/O Settings

In this video, Rick Hillmer introduces us to the I/O Settings of the ACS580 from ABB. This is yet

You may remember this main screen. Pressing the menu button brings up the main menu. While I can scroll up to parameters and set everything up like normal, this I/O menu may also be helpful to you. This menu makes your setup similar to some of the other guys’ drives. Going into this menu, it shows me at a glance the functions of each input as well as their status. As you can see, digital and analog I/O are all monitored showing their actual value on the left. This can be helpful during startup and troubleshooting. The right side shows the function.

This setup is ABB’s standard macro, giving 2 wire control and a separate input for a reverse command. If you would rather have DI1 be a forward and DI2 be a reverse, it is just as simple as changing the setting for DI1 from DI1 start/stop to DI1 forward, DI2 reverse. Going to a 3-wire control is as simple as changing DI1 to DI1P start, DI2 stop. As you can see, this setting for DI1 also changes the setting for DI2, which can help speed up your commissioning time.

We hope you have seen that this is yet another way the new line of drives from ABB are truly “all-compatible”. If you have any questions on this or any of our other products, give us a call, we’d be happy to help.
