procedure or after disconnecting and reconnecting of the USB 

interface.

Note:

PCMCIA to COM Port provide a stable and faster drive interface.

Utilize DriveWindow Light or DCS800 Panel Wizard continue 

with chapter Commissioning in this manual.

For commissioning by DriveWindow find a workspace description in the DCS800 Firmware manual.

Danger! High voltage: this symbol warns of high 

voltages which may result in injuries to persons 

and/or damage to equipment. Where appropriate, 

the text printed adjacent to this symbol describes 

how risk of this kind may be avoided. 

General warning: this symbol warns of non-electrical risks and dangers which may result in serious 

or even fatal injuries to persons and/or damage to 

equipment. Where appropriate, the text printed 

adjacent to this symbol describes how risk of this 

kind may be avoided.

General instructions

• This short commissioning refers to Chapter 5 Connection examples of this publication.

• Safety and operating instructions - see chapter 6 

of this publication.

• Recommendations for motor and field voltages see 

Technical catalogue.

• In accordance with DIN 57 100 Part 727 / VDE 0100 

Part 727, precautions must be taken to enable the 

drive to be shut down, e.g. in the event of danger. 

The unit’s digital inputs or the control panel are not 

sufficient as the sole measure for this purpose!

Warning of electrostatic discharge: this symbol 

warns you against electrostatic discharges which 

may damage to unit. Where appropriate, the text 

printed adjacent to this symbol describes how risk 

of this kind may be avoided.

NEC motor overload protection

The DCS800 provides a solid-state motor overload 

protection in accordance with the NEC. The overload 

protection (e.g. protection level in percent of full-load 

motor current) can be adjusted by parameters in 

group 31 and group 99.

The instructions can be found in chapter Motor 

thermal model of the DCS800 Firmware manual.
