1 Introduction

1.1 Product description

The VARIOsys software system operates the VARIOcon-based VARIOdyn ACVF family. VARIOcon is a control
PCB unit based on Infineon C161CS microcontroller, dSMC101(digital smart motion controller) and the analog chip
VECANA / ADS7869. Its main task is the motion control of the converter driven AC or DC motor.
The software uses the following input information:
 Trip commands, load measurement data, speed and acceleration reference values via RS422 from the elevator
controls TX, TX2, MX.
 Actual rotating speed from the encoder mounted on the motor axis
 Actual armature current
 Actual DC link voltage
The current control uses these inputs to calculate new current reference values, which are passed to the on-chip DSP
for the PWM which generates pulse signals for the converter power transistors.
Other important tasks are:
 Switching and control of the converter hardware
 PCBs and converter test support
 Error diagnostics and handling
 Maintenance of the system time and trip counters
 Commissioning
 Parameter handling
 Data trace handling

1.2 Configuration
The configuration and control is done by elevator control over RS422 serial interface.

1.6 Release notes VARIOsys V1.19

1.6.1 New features since VARIOsys V1.18

 Support new mechanism for automatic evacuation trip for CMG
 Support of new VAP33 inverter
 Motor parameter according Q41601303 Ae19

1.6.2 Features changed since VARIOsys V1.18

 Further improvement on voltage dip protection mechanism
 Improve tracer functionality
 Remove DMC functionality
 Use parameter MOTOR_TEMP_SENSOR to evaluate source of motor temperature at trip start
 Adjustment of current measurement range
 Scale all tracer outputs to SI units
 Simplify synchronisation of slaves
 Improve Parameter Derivation
 Move trip type and trip info to REQ_PREPARE_START message
 SSI communication more stable @ 5 MHz
 Leave standby state when test is executed
 Disable "Memory Test" for parallel operation
 Configuration warning entry ID_SW_HW_INCONSISTENT
 Improve Error Handler
 Calculate DCL charge/discharge time and overvolt allowed times from HW data

1.6.3 Corrections since VARIOsys V1.18

 Motor setting 4857 leads to E27/4 with VAP288
 Stop Charging earlier in case of short circuit in dc link
 Correction of determination of trip phase
 Timing of sending of start ack
 Error in torque ramp calculation
 Rework inverter initialization regarding switchable power modules
 "INFO APP D" shows warning & error counters from local subsystem only
 Negative trip counter in warning- and error-log
 Increase limits for trip phase change to make V1.18 less sensitive in case of bad approaching
 Emergency Stop traces seems to use the wrong FS file number.
 Extend VXVF protocol to send additional info in case of generalACK Prepare_start or Start_Inverter FALSE.
 MC does not correctly switch off LC in case of COM error
 FAN error reported wrongly VAB88
 Adjust current table VAP288 & VDP155
 Filtering of reference values during a running trip improved.
 FCR IGBT Test Failed
 W13 with DC drive
 Critical data in nzRam needs to be checksum protected.
 Correct parameters of FMM200_6D252
 Correct initialization of tracer's trigger
 do not send off-command if lc is switching off (avoid E10 in case of interrupted trip start)
 VIP Send Spontaneously ACK None

1.6.4 Known issues with VARIOsys V1.19

 PTCM: “Estimate Motor Parameter” fails with ContactorMode parameter not 0
Workaround: use ContactorMode 0 to execute T2
 Configuration: V1.19 the T_DCL parameter is calculated, which leads to an yellow/green LED state when
upgrading an installation
Workaround: Set positive inverter setting from CADI. This will force an recalculation of
all dependent parameters.

The table of contents Q 41400261 shows the EXDAT files with the actual size and date.

2.2.1 Explanations to the EXDAT data file names

FlashTypes.dat definition file of Flash EPROM
ReadMe.txt help file for ServiceFlasher
ServiceFlasher.exe program which writes the object file into the Flash EPROM
ServiceFlasher.ico Windows icon
ServiceFlasher.ini settings for ServiceFlasher
ServiceFlasher.msg Windows msg file for ServiceFlasher
Variocon_2Flash.cfg configuration file for VARIOcon Flash EPROM
VARIOSYS.HEX object file

3 Programming of the Flash EPROM

The object code for the Flash EPROM is stored in the file variosys.hex.
The Flash EPROM must be programmed via the RS232 on the VARIOcon PCB by means of a special boot program
running on a PC. This programming tool is included in Q 41400261.

3.1 Programming
Connect the COM1 serial port of the programming PC with the D-Sub9 X11 connector of the VARIOcon PCB.
Activate the "BOOT" switch on the VARIOcon PCB. Supply the system via main switch. Then run the
ServiceFlasher.exe, follow the instructions according to the help file (ReadMe.txt). The Flash EPROM will first be
erased and then be programmed with the new VARIOsys.HEX object program.

Note: Loading of this software must utilize the latest version of the Service Flasher. This is included in the
software package X41400261.

If you use GDDT for SW download, look that the latest Service Flasher files are inside the folder \\(GDDT-
root)\GDDT\gddtTerminal\ServiceFlasher. See also GDDT Help.
