1 – INTRODUCTION
The TAKEDO–3VF NXS/NXP is an inverter drive with built-in EMC filter and smoothing choke,
responding to Council Directives 89/336/CEE (electromagnetic compatibility) 73/23/CEE (low voltage
equipment). The drive can operate both in open loop mode (NXS) and in closed loop mode (NXP). For
operation in closed loop mode, an optional circuit board is required, and a 5V line driver or 24V push-pull
type encoder.

This manual provides you with the necessary information about putting on duty and the operation of NXL
frequency converter. You can find further information about application and installation in a lift control panel
in the ANNEX NXS/NXP FOR PANEL WIRING SPECIALISTS, available in electronic edition on our website:
www.sms.bo.it.

2 – SAFETY WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Read this manual in its entirety before powering up the equipment, following the procedures step by step.
In detail, please read carefully the Chapters:
7 – ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
6.4 – ACTIVE FAULTS

2.1 SAFETY WARNINGS

Follow the procedures indicated below with due care, so as to avoid any risk of serious accidents.
1- Do not use an oscilloscope or other such instrument to test the internal circuits of the inverter. This type
of operation must be performed only by a specialist technician.
2- The leakage current from the inverter to ground is greater than 30mA, and accordingly, the power
circuit must incorporate a residual current device with Id no less than 300mA, type B. Regulations
require that the connection to ground be made with cable of not less than 10 mm² section.
3- If the parameters used in programming the drive are incorrect, the motor may be caused to rotate at a
speed higher than synchronous. Do not run the motor beyond its specified electrical and mechanical
limits. The installer is responsible for ensuring that movements are generated in conditions of safety,
without exceeding specified operating limits.
4- Risk of electrocution. Power up the inverter only with the front cover fitted. NEVER remove the cover
during operation. Before carrying out any operation on the equipment, isolate from the electrical power
supply and wait a few minutes for the internal capacitors to discharge.
5- The external braking resistor heats up during operation. Do not install it close to or in contact with
inflammable materials. To improve heat dissipation it is good practice to fix the resistor to a metal plate.
Ensure it is properly protected and cannot be touched.
6- The inverter have to be always connected to the mains supply . In case of interruption wait 1 minute at
least before restore supply . TOO NEAR INSERTIONS OF THE MAINS CAN CAUSE A PERMANENT
DAMAGE OF THE INVERTER.
2.2 PRECAUTIONS
Follow the procedures indicated in the manual with care so as to avoid the risk of damaging or destroying the
drive.
1- Do not connect the equipment to a voltage higher than the permissible input voltage. An excessive
voltage can cause irreparable damage to internal components.
2- To avoid the risk of damaging the drive in case it stays unworking without power supply for a
long time, you should follow these precautions:
- If the inverter doesn’t work since several months, before starting the operation, power up the
drive at least for 1 hour preventing it can operate, so that the bus capacitors could regenerate
themselves.
- If the inverter doesn’t work since one year or more, to regenerate the bus capacitors power up
the drive, preventing it can operate, for 1 hour at an input voltage less than 50% the rated
voltage, then for 1 hour at the rated input voltage.
3- Do not connect capacitors to the inverter outputs.
4- If the drive protection functions trip, do not reset the fault before having analysed and removed the
cause of the fault.

TAKEDO - 3VF NXS/NXP USER MANUAL Release 7 date 15-03-2006 3

 5- The lift system should be counterweighted at 50%, if counterweighted at 40% the current in up direction
with full load is greater and requires a larger capacity inverter to that normally necessary, with
consequent greater cost.
6- Use a drive having rated current equal to or greater than the motor rated current .
7- The braking resistor have to be connected between B+ and R- . If connected between B+ and B-,
the inverter will be permanently damaged.

3.1 SAFETY WARNINGS

1- Ground the unit before powering it.
2- To increase the protection of the internal diodes and connecting wires (especially against the
overvoltage due for example to atmospheric phenomena), you should connect three fast-acting fuses
(one for each phase) in series with the a.c. power input terminals; fuses must be rated to match the
different size designations as indicated in TABLE – Recommended braking resistors and fuses.
The fuse kit, complete with box, is available on request.
3- To avoid irreparable damage to the inverter, do not connect braking resistors with resistance or
power ratings lower than those indicated in TABLE. For long run lifts or high reverse gain gears,
install the braking resistor with oversized power but with the same value in ohms (if needed, contact
SMS for advices).
4- The inverter drive is connected <<up line>> of the power contactors. The drive is able to pilot operation
of the motor in two directions, accordingly, the system can incorporate only two power contactors to
switch the inverter – motor line, as prescribed by safety regulations.
5- The external braking resistor heats up during operation. Do not install it close to or in contact with
inflammable materials. Ensure it is properly protected and cannot be touched.
6- Wire and bond ground connections in accordance with professional standards (as indicated under
heading 3.2) to avoid problems with EMC interference.
7- Take particular care over the power connections. If the input and output connections are reversed, the
inverter will be inevitably damaged.

TABLE 1 – Fuses and recommended braking resistors

IMPORTANT: For high travel (>30m) or gear with high inverse efficiency, install the braking resistor
recommended as value in ohm, but power corresponding to the next higher size.
For higher powers and voltages, or advices on application, consult SMS.

3.2 INVERTER/MOTOR CABLING RULES TO ASSURE EMC CONFORMITY

The correct INVERTER – MOTOR cabling must follow the rules below:
1- The building ground plant must be connected to both the inverter and motor.
2- The inverter/contactor and contactor/motor cable runs must be as short as possible, shielded with four
poles (three phases plus yellow/green ground wire), or four unshielded wires bound together running in
a duct or grounded metal tube. In other words, in the same cable or tube there must be a ground wire
running as close as possible to the power cables. In the case of a shielded cable the shield must be
unbroken between the inverter/contactor and contactor/motor .
The shield have to be grounded at both ends with a 360° clamp (Fig. 1), or with special terminals
(Fig. 2).

FIG. 1 FIG. 2

If the shield cannot be grounded with a 360° clamp o n the motor terminal block itself, the shield must be
grounded on the motor casing before the cable enters the terminal box.
3- Use a shielded cable also for the inverter input power line to avoid radiated EMC emissions in the
system.
The mains input power cables and inverter output cables MUST NOT be run in the same duct and their
runs must be as far apart as possible (at least 50 cm.).
4- The power and control cables must be run as far apart as possible and not parallel to each other, even if
they are shielded; if the cable runs cross they must do so at an angle of 90°.
5- Independently of the connection to the building grounding plant, the motor casing MUST be connected
both to the cable shield and to the yellow/green ground wire inside the shielded cable.
6- The inverter emits electromagnetic radiation which can be captured and transmitted by cables, in
particular by the flexible cables in the shaft.

TAKEDO - 3VF NXS/NXP USER MANUAL Release 7 date 15-03-2006 5

 To avoid this problem, use shielded cables for the control panel logic / inverter connections, with the
shield grounded at both ends. DO NOT use shielded cables without grounding the shields: this leads to
higher levels of EMC disturbance than if unshielded cables are used.
Any wire in a multi-pole cable which is not in use must be grounded at both ends.
7- Any cable, whether control and external shaft or car connections, must never run parallel/near to the
power cable, even if shielded; if they must be parallel for any reason, they should be run through
separate metal ducts.
8- The pulse generator cable must be shielded and grounded only at the inverter end, as far as possible
from the motor cable. Make sure that the shield is not grounded at the motor end using a tester on the
shield/motor connection: if the shield is grounded at the motor end and this cannot be avoided, do not
ground it at the inverter end. The motor/pulse generator coupling must be isolated to avoid parasitic
currents looping through the pulse generator. As for all other shields, the ground connection must be via
a 360° clamp.
9- All ground connections should be as short as possible and wide .

(a) (b)

Copper braid (a) is better than wire (b).

10- To avoid unintentional tripping of the differential circuit breakers take the following steps:
− make the power cable runs as short as possible
− use circuit breakers designed for harmonics (type B, with tripping current 300mA).
− reduce the inverter carrier frequency (if possible); lower frequency means greater motor noise, but
smaller grounding currents and smaller EMC phenomena.

4 – ENCODER : CONNECTION AND TYPES

Board NXOPTA4 or NXOPTA5 (optional), inserted in slot C (3° from left)
When operating in closed-loop mode, the inverter drive requires a feedback signal provided by an industrial
encoder , resolution 1024 pulse/rev (encoders specified within the range 300 - 5000 pulse/rev can also be
used) , of type :
Line driver powered at 5Vdc or
Push-pull powered at 15 or 24 Vdc.
SMS can supply a LIKA I581024H encoder, 1024 pulse/rev , that works with both NOXOPTA4 and
NXOPTA5 boards , working in line driver mode if powered at 5Vdc , push-pull mode if powered at 15 or 24
Vdc.
The encoder cable must be shielded, and the shield connected (as indicated in heading 5.2) to the inverter
ground terminal. In any event, the encoder should have a shielded cable of length sufficient to allow
connection direct to the inverter, following the shortest possible run and located well away from the
power cables.

CAUTION!
If the encoder used is not supplied by SMS , if it is LINE DRIVER type , the NXOPTA4 encoder board
have to be used, whereas if a 15V or 24V PUSH-PULL type is installed, the NXOPTA5 encoder board
will be needed.

7 – ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT
It is necessary to know the characteristics of the motor, normally indicated on dataplate, before
proceeding to modify parameters.
If you are using a SASSI motor and your kind of motor is present in the SUMMARY TABLE OF SASSI
MOTORS (see CHAPTER 9 of this manual), you have only to set the parameter P2.1.7 “Motor type”
and the data of the motor will be automatically settled inside the drive.


If the motor is not present on the table , you have to set these parameters :
NOMINAL VOLTAGE, NOMINAL FREQUENCY, NOMINAL SPEED, NOMINAL CURRENT, COS ,
inside the Basic Parameters of the drive.
MAGNETISING CURRENT (P2.5.4.1) inside the Motor Control Group, if you are using a NXP closed
loop drive.
If these parameters aren’t programmed correctly , the drive won’t work correctly.

Before starting to change any parameter or regulation, proceed in this way :

7.1 – SET THE DATAPLATE OF THE MOTOR INTO PARAMETERS P2.1.2/3/4/5/6/7.

If the motor speed is not known, or if the nominal value on data plate is 1500 rpm:
- if the motor is 1 or 2 speed, or for conventional ACVV regulator, set 1350/1380 rpm
- if it is for a VVVF speed regulator, set 1440 rpm.
If the cos phii value is not known:
- if the motor is 1 or 2 speed, or for conventional ACVV regulator, set 0,76
- if it is for a VVVF speed regulator, set 0,80.

7.2 – PLACE THE DECELERATION COMMANDS AT A DISTANCE FROM FLOOR AS INDICATED IN THE
TABLE (GREATER THE DISTANCE, MORE SMOOTHLY THE LIFT SYSTEM WILL OPERATE)

DECELERATION DISTANCE TABLE

Nominal lift speed (m/s) 0.6 - 0.8 1.0 1.2 1.4 1.6 1.8 2.0
Deceleration distances (mm) 1000 1400 1700 2000 2200 2600 2800

In addition, position the stop switch centrally with respect to the floor.
The STOPPING DISTANCE TABLE shows guideline values to consider in order to define activation
distance of the stop switch (or switches):
STOP
MAGNET STOPPING DISTANCE TABLE
= System nominal speed (m/s) 0.6 – 0.8 1.0 1.2
FLOOR
LEVEL Total stopping distance (D) (mm) 60 80 100
= D

The stopping adjustment is performed using the inverter parameters (see the nex points 7.9 – 5 and
7.10 – 5).
7.3 – SET THE EXACT VALUES OF MAXIMUM FREQUENCY P2.2.1 (CORRESPONDING TO THE
NOMINAL LIFT SPEED) AND HIGH SPEED P2.2.2.
7.4 – ADJUST THE INSPECTION FREQUENCY P2.2.10 TO OBTAIN A CAR SPEED LOWER THAN 0,63
m/s.
7.5 – SET THE MOTOR CONTROL TYPE :
V/F FREQUENCY CONTROL OR OPEN LOOP FOR NXS, CLOSED LOOP FOR NXP.
7.6 – PAY ATTENTION:
ALWAYS VERIFY THAT PARAMETERS P2.2.1 E P2.2.7 ÷ P2.2.10 ARE PROGRAMMED WITH
FREQUENCIES COMPATIBLE WITH THE MOTOR RATED FREQUENCY.
For example it is possible to find motors working at 30Hz, 38Hz, 45Hz, 55Hz, 60Hz, etc., mounted on
gears.

 7.7 – IDENTIFICATION (IMPORTANT!)
After setting the correct motor data, it is essential to perform the IDENTIFICATION routine.
- Set parameter P2.1.8 to 1 and transmit a call command: the contactors energizes, the brake doesn’t
open, and “RUN” lights on.
- When “RUN” lights off and “STOP” appears, the parameter P2.1.8 goes to 0, so deactivate the call
(e.g. by opening the operation valve)
- The boost parameters are now optimized.
If you modify any motor data, it is essential to perform the IDENTIFICATION routine again.
7.8 – FAN CONTROL
Set parameter P2.1.9 (fan control) as desired:
0 = continuous duty.
1 = the fan runs during run and for 1 further minute after the stop.
2 = the fan starts only when the drive temperature reaches 45°C.
SMS advices not to modify the fan operation from default value (1), in order to assure a good cooling
of the power part at each run of the lift..

After done what indicated at points 7.1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 , proceed as follows:
IMPORTANT
Parameters have to be changed ALWAYS ONCE AT A TIME.
1 - Adjust the starting with brake control parameters
JERK BACK ROTATION
2.3.1.7.3 Brake open delay
2.3.1.7.5 Smooth start frequency
2.3.1.7.6 Smooth start time
Starting comfort has to be ‘soft’, without jerks nor back rotations.
- If an higher torque at starting is needed, set the starting current at 0Hz in P2.5.3.7.6 (default=50%) to a
greater value (do not set a value over 60%) and perform the IDENTIFICATION routine again.
2 - During high speed run , the rpm of the motor have to reach the required value, and the speed of the
lift has to be constant. If not constant (oscillating) increase or decrease the value of the parameter
P2.1.4. (Motor speed).
3 - Adjust now the deceleration phase . Lift has to reach the floor running for a short space at constant
speed (10cm max.) without oscillations nor vibrations, with the same speed for both up and down
directions and in any load condition.
Adjust the space travelled at low speed with parameter 2.2.4 (Deceleration ramp).
4 - If, at the end of the deceleration phase, motor stops hardly reaching the floor position, adjust
the following parameters:
2.1.4 Motor Speed
2.5.3.3 V/F mid frequency
2.5.3.4 V/F mid voltage
2.2.8 Low speed
5 - If, at floor arrival, car is not perfectly aligned at floor, the parameters to be adjusted are :
If car stops If car stops If position is different

2.2.5 Final deceleration at stop -
2.2.8 Low speed -
2.3.1.3 DC motor braking current
2.3.1.6 Stop DC braking current -

IMPORTANT
For low speed frequency a value of 1/10 of the rated frequency is suggested:
Example – low speed set at 5Hz if motor rated frequency is equal to 50 Hz.

1 - Set the magnetising motor current with parameter 2.5.4.1: if this current is unknown,
it is possible to find it with this procedure :
- Balance the car load with weights until to reach the same current for both up and down direction
- Set the inverter in V/F control mode
- Set the high speed level to 2/3 of the motor rated frequency
- Read the current absorbed during run at constant speed
- Set the value found in parameter 2.5.4.1

2 - Adjust starting comfort with the following parameters :

JERK BACK ROTATION
2.2.21.1 Smooth start time
2.2.21.2 Smooth start frequency
2.2.21.3 Initial acceleration ramp
2.2.21.4 0Hz time at start (about 0,7”)
2.3.2.6.1 Brake open delay (min. 0,5”)
Starting comfort has to be ‘soft’, without jerks nor vibrations.

3 - If during the acceleration and during high speed travel motor has vibrations , check the
following parameters :
2.5.4.6 Speed control KP2
2.5.4.7 Speed Control TI2
Check also that the encoder connections match the indications in paragraphs 3.2.8 and 4.
The encoder cable have to be separated from the power cable and distant 50 cm at least from
the motor cable . It have to be connected with a unique cable , without added terminals , and
with the shield connected to earth from inverter side.
Encoder pulses per revolution have to match parameter 7.3.1.1 . Verify also the parameter 7.3.1.3
normally set at 5ms by SMS . A good mechanical coupling between encoder and the fast motor shaft is
very important: verify also the screws, the alignment of the joint, etc.

TAKEDO–3VF NXS/NXP USER MANUAL Release 7 date 15-03-2006

19
4 - Verify the slowing phase. Lift has to reach floor in a very small space (few centimetres) , at
constant speed without oscillations nor vibrations, both for up and down direction.
Adjust the space travelled at low speed with parameter 2.2.4 (Deceleration ramp).
IMPORTANT: Considering the high precision of the inverter , it is important to set the
position of the slowing command with the best possible accuracy , to have the
same space travelled at low speed for any floor.
5 - If, at floor arrival, the car is not perfectly aligned at floor, even if the stop switches are centred to the
floor, the parameters to be adjusted are :
It stops It stops
BEFORE AFTER
2.2.5 Final deceleration ramp
2.2.8 Low speed level
A very good comfort can be obtained (for a 50 Hz rated frequency lift motor) with a 3Hz low speed and a
0,8 seconds final deceleration.

7.11 – ONE FLOOR TRAVEL (for both open and closed loop)
When the desired starting and stopping comfort has reached and, running between far floors, the space
travelled at low speed is the same for any floor for both up and down direction, you have to set the slowing
distance, especially useful for one floor travel, with parameter P2.2.19 as follows:
- Set parameter P2.2.18 to 1.
- Make a car call for 2 floors at least.
- When lift will reach low speed, P2.2.18 will return automatically to 0 , while the distance travelled will be set
into P2.2.19.
- Make a car call for one floor only, verify comfort, and check that the space travelled at low speed is the
same as a travel between far floors .
To increase comfort further, decrease parameter P2.2.20 (Half floor frequency).

7.12 – MOTOR NOISE

In case of motor noise , increase switching frequency P2.5.2, considering that higher is the
frequency, higher are EMC emissions. In addition, the motor insulation and the inverter power
components are more “stressed”.

7.13 – ALARMS THAT MAY APPEAR DURING THE SYSTEM SETUP PHASE
43 = Encoder:
Encoder is damaged, not properly connected or it runs in opposite direction. For this last case modify
parameter 7.3.1.3 from NO to YES.
56 = Speed error:
Real speed is different from settled speed. Check the magnetising current and eventually increase
0Hz start time (P2.2.21.4) and brake open delay (P2.3.2.6.1).
59 = Run Error: Up/Down run command is active, but there is none speed level.
60 = Levelling:
Lift stops at floor when low speed is not yet reached , that means during the deceleration . In this case
decrease deceleration time P2.2.4.
02 = Overvoltage:
DC link voltage exceeded the limit. Check the connection of the braking resistor and its value in
according to the table at page 5.If necessary, increase the slowing distance.
61 = Low current:
Brake doesn’t open because the motor current is too low (modify P2.3.1.1=minimum current for brake
opening).
63 = Output phase: Missing current in one phase during start.
64 = Low reference: Check speed level parameters and command signal cabling.

68= ANTICIPATED OPENING OF THE CONTACTORS:

The contactors between inverter and motor have been opened during
the DC current injection at stop.
A repeated intervention of this alarm can permanently damage
the inverter and decreases significantly the contactors lifetime.

7.14 – PARAMETERS FOR EMERGENCY OPERATION WITH BATTERY POWER SUPPLY(MINIMUM
48VDC) EFFECTIVE ONLY FOR EVACUATION PURPOSES.
2.10.1 EVACUATION MODE:
0 = NOT USED (EMERGENCY FEATURE EXCLUDED)
1 = MANUAL (DOES NOT SELECT FAVOURABLE RUN DIRECTION)
2 = AUTOMATIC (SELECTS FAVOURABLE RUN DIRECTION)
2.10.3 MAXIMUM SPEED IN EVACUATION: this is the maximum speed of the motor, whatever the
level effectively activated (high, low, inspection, etc.).
2.10.9 SWITCHING FREQUENCY. (maintain the default value).
2.10.10.1 MOTOR CONTROL MODE: (FREQUENCY, OPEN LOOP , CLOSED LOOP) . If the input
voltage is lower than 96V, frequency control is the preferred mode in an evacuation situation.
2.10.10.2 CURRENT CONTROL DELAY: is the delay between start and the control of the current when
inverter chooses the run most favourable direction.

8 – CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE

To ensure long service life and smooth operation of the drive, carry out the following checks at regular
intervals. Always isolate the drive from the power supply and make certain the keypad is off before
proceeding.
1- Remove the dust that collects on the cooling fans and on the control circuit board, preferably by means
of compressed air or using a vacuum cleaner.
2- Check that there are no screws loose at the power or control terminals.
3- Check that the operation of the inverter drive is <<normal>> and that there are no signs of overheating.
7.1 MEGGER TEST
When performing insulation tests
using a Megger tester on the
input/output cables or on the motor, L1 U
remove all the connections to all DC 500V INVERTER
terminals of the drive and perform MEGGER L2 V
the test only on the power circuit, in
accordance with the adjacent DC L3 W
diagram. Do not Megger test the
control circuits.
