Generic Chinese VFD, XSY-AT1 Programming Parameters/Settings

[tarawa]

First of all let me tell you that I am using a very un-sophisticated manually operated duplicating router, using at first, a Huanyang VFD / 1.5kw aircold spindle combination. After a year of service, which by the way was not continuous, the VFD started faulting with several different overload faults. I ended up purchasing two XSY-AT1 VFDs and a spare motor on Ebay. I completely rewired the machine then started on the long journey of programming the VFD. After taking everyone’s advise on different parameters, which got me really close, I finally tweaked the settings where the spindle spins and stops correctly using the onboard commands. If anyone needs them, here are my final parameters. Don’t ask me my logic, because it was all trial and error......mostly error.

Hi George,

Glad you got it all working in the end and thank you for coming back and sharing this info!

I've added a link to any of the XSY-AT1 discussion's I can find on the forum with a link back to this one :thumsup:

[tarawa]

Thanks Lee
It still working correctly, so I must have done something right.

[JanBo]

Thanks tarawa.
I found this forum searching for setup for a XSY-AT1 VFD, mine just arrived today - started it up with factory settings -Fault Err 1: Altered P24 from 3 to 6 - according to your setup - started up perfectly. Switched factory settings P00 - P01 -P03 -P06 -P24 - P26 to your settings, run's perfectly now. My only problem is setting main current overload P78 to 8000 mA - factory setting according to manual is 3000 but accesing the value in program it's 12000 and manual says setting can be 0-65335. Again thanks a lot for the attached thumbnail with setup details, that helped me set up my VFD within 15 minuttes

[tarawa]

Glad the program worked for you. Mine is still running fine.

[greg_brister]

I'm trying to see the settings but I can't. I'm trying to program the same vfd for a 2x72 grinder.

I recently posted a video on this inverter for my drill press upgrade which might help

Depends on the motor you are trying to connect to but might give you more information.

I've just run up against an interesting XYS-AT1 issue. I was mains wiring up a new XYS-AT1 I just bought to check it worked and it went bang. Oh dear! I wired as per my other XYS-AT1, from left to right Earth, Neutral, Live. As per the instruction on the board. However see smoke and two blown resistors. I looked at the 'manual' and see its says Earth, live, Neutral?
Can someone tell me the mains wiring terminals they have for this. Thanks

Do you have the manual for it. Also did you have the spindle connected? A picture of the terminals would help

[marbles]

Wired it as my other XYS-AT1 unit and the same as Routercnc did in his video. Got the 2 page manual, looked at it after I had wired it, no load just the three mains wires. The manual says different than the board?! Routercnc mentions in his video a similar issue with another inverter. UK seller has agreed to take it back for refund, annoying as it was £30, guess I know why :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiXFlVzR29Y

[routercnc]

I think Marbles' question was -

Earth : Live : Neutral (as per the 'manual')

or

Earth : Neutral : Live (as per the board)

This goes through a rectifier so I can't see how L and N either way around makes a difference.

[marbles]

Indeed that was my question. I, as did you plumped for Earth : Neutral : Live (as per the board)

Both resisters just behind the first blue caps popped and burst into flames. Maybe a short somewhere else on the board or whateverz. Something clearly wrong with that unit which is why it was on ebay no doubt. Ocht well eh, maybe this is the moment to try a HY (Huangyang)

[routercnc]

For info the unit that went bang on first switch on many years ago was a Huanyang, so you take your chances with anything in this sort of price bracket.

[JAZZCNC]

For info the unit that went bang on first switch on many years ago was a Huanyang, so you take your chances with anything in this sort of price bracket.

I've probably fitted 100+ Huanyang now and I've only had one go bang when turning on and that was when they first arrived on the scene 10+yrs ago. It only a Thermister and a very simple fix.
These newer Huanyang are much much better quality and very reliable, I've not had a single one fail in use.

[Clive S]

This is from the link you posted https://www.banggood.com/2_2KW-220V-12A-Single-Phase-Input-3-Phase-Output-PWM-Frequency-Converter-Drive-Inverter-VF-Vector-Control-p-1288332.html?utm_campaign=19484616_956788&utm_content=10375&p=5Q31037119195201610A&cur_warehouse=CN

In that link it shows the wiring as AC-AC-U-V-W-earth. So if that is correct putting earth and Live on the first two terminals would have only blown the MCB or fuse and should not have damaged the VFD.

[PhillJ]

Just like to say thanks.
Used these settings for 2.2 kw 3hp single phase to single phase.
(With only a few change in parameters ) for my needs. 72” belt grinder.
It ran and I had speed control.
Think it might need a few more adjustments, but works.
Thanks again.

[Last Chance]

Hi all,

I've just stumbled across this thread trying to find answers for setting up my own VFD - which is not the dark-grey model on eBay, but the beige one, although I think it uses the same electronics in a different case. But the instruction sheet is equally rubbish ;)
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/8A-1-5Kw-220V-Single-Phase-3-Phase-Variable-Frequency-Drive-Converter-Motor-VFD/224073115630?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

Earlier I did come across another post on another forum that uses the following settings:

Huanyang Mactec54
PD000=0 for Parameter unlock ( 1 ) for Parameter Lock
PD001=0 (1 For Remote Control)
PD002=0
PD003=400
PD004=400
PD005=400
PD007=20
PD008=220
PD011=120 (Minimum Setting 120)
PD009=15
PD010=8
PD13= 08 is for Factory reset, Only use this to set VFD to Factory Default Settings
PD014 Accel=12 ( Adjust to suit)
PD015 Deccl=12 (Adjust to suit) ( PD15 is ignored IF PD26=1 Then the Spindle will Coast to a Stop)
PD141=220 ( Motor Rated Voltage )
PD142=9 ( Motor Max Amps) (Set for your motor Amp Rating 2.2Kw Spindle 9 amp Max)
(Set for your motor Amp Rating 1.5Kw Spindle 7 amp Max)
PD143=2 ( Motor Number of Poles)
PD144=3000 (Max Motor RPM) =3,000= (24,000)

My point here is that I notice tarawa is US-based, not UK, where the input mains voltage is 110v, as opposed to our 240v. So does anyone have an explanation as to what each of these parameters do and is their an explanation of what these these parameters are?

e.g. I assume P002 (tarawa's figures) is the input voltage?

Currently I am getting an Error Code 1 if I turn the speed up above 16 on the readout (I think that's the frequency?), so I'm guessing a limit has been preset at the factory.

Any help is much appreciated :)

[Spyke]

Hello,

During my search on the internet about the settings of the XSY-AT1 I came across this forum.

I have the 1.5 KW version and a 1.1 KW motor with 2780 revolutions. Without load the motor runs, but when I hold the shaft it has no power and just stutters, the VFD then shuts down with Error 1.
It seems like the VFD is overloaded with the starting current.

I will upload a video on Youtube and post the link here.

I would be happy if you could give me tips on the settings.

Best thanks
Many greetings
Marc

I am using the XSY-AT1 invertor in my drill press upgrade, video series starts here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiXFlVzR29Y&list=PLBhXglGlotqzL5rXn8aRN7i6ecMuwH6RR&index=1


I talk through all the parameters I used in episode 2. Skip to 17:17 if you just want the parameters part:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrIEI-4Iupo


Below is a pdf of my version of the parameter sheet as the one supplied is quite hard to follow. I colour coded it according to whether I thought the parameter was required for setting up the motor, preferences, input devices, advance users and not documented.
This may be of some help, but use at your own risk:
29361


Error code 1 = module protection
Error code 2 = under voltage protection
Error code 3 = over voltage protection
Error code 4 = driving circuit failure
Error code 5 = input at startup when electrified
Error code 6 = over current protection
Error code 7 = overtime
Error code 8 = excessive temperature for radiator
Error code 9 = external fault

[Spyke]

Hello,

Thanks for the help, I tried your settings and also other settings, but unfortunately without success.
I also tried another motor (0.55 KW), unfortunately it shows the same behavior.
Without load

With load

https://youtu.be/2f_N5mOHncE

Any ideas?

Regards Marc

[Spyke]

Hooray, a small success!
I have now got the motor running under load, for this I had to set P72. Unfortunately, the motor now runs very rough in operation. Can someone help me with the torque settings P70, P71 and P72?

Greetings Marc

Something is not right with the fundamental settings. P72 is just for additional torque at low speed. I did not use mine in the end as there was plenty of torque when I did some test drilling.

How is this wired to the motor ? Delta pattern I assume ? Is this wired correctly at the motor end ?

How many poles? I assume 2 poles from the rpm ? Is this set correctly ?

What is the max current set to P76? Maybe this is too low and the P72 is helping you out but it is not the way to solve it.

Check all connections are tight.

[Spyke]

It is wired as delta, what do you mean with wired correctly at the motor end? V is V, W is W, U is U.
Yes its a 2 pole motor. I checked all connections several times and do also a trough check with multimeter.
Max current is set to 8000.

I saw in different videos nobody needs torque compensation for starting motor with load.
It seams that one phase has not enough power and causes the motor stuttering under load. So I think something is wrong with my Vfd.

I just meant to check if it is wired delta. If you have an oscilloscope and current clamp you could do some checking but you could be right and the inverter is maybe faulty. Is it new and a recent purchase? See what the seller has to say about it.

It´s a new one, I already contacted the seller, let´s see what he is saying.....Chinese seller.....
Unfortunately I didn´t have a oscilloscope and current clamp. But the company in the neighborhood of my company have the equipment, I ask them if they can check for me, they are machine builders and familiar with such stuff.

Attached you can find my settings. Maybe you can find a wrong value.

[routercnc]

Your instructions show P25 as 'not listed' and my instructions show that as the number of poles. 0 = 2 poles, 1 = 4 poles, 2 = 6 poles. Luckily you have set yours to 0 which is 2 poles, although P21 is different and asks for 'rpm for 50 Hz', which I guess is another way to calculate number of poles.

I can't see anything else wrong, so suspect it is faulty. The Chinese sellers often want some evidence of the fault so your video should help there, plus you have tried 2 different motors. I would wait for them to respond and not dive into asking a company to look at it. If the seller thinks you have opened it up they may not refund you.

I had a invertor arrive faulty a few years ago (it went bang when I wired it up to the mains - no motor had been fitted) and they wanted to see a photo of the wiring. After showing them the photo they asked me to send it back and they sent another. Good luck.

My VFD is faulty, today my second on from Amazon arrived and everything works well.
I'm in contact with the seller of the first one, he is very cooperative and will send replacement.

Thanks' for your help!

[Spyke]

I have one further question.
I have wired forward and reverse operation to an external switch (3positions, middle position no switch, forward and reverse permanent).
How to wire and program emergency stop?
Only cut com of external switch or wire it to x post and set it up in menue?

Regards
Marc

[routercnc]

For industrial use follow local regulations
For personal use it depends on your level of risk. If you interrupt the com line with the estop the machine may startup when you reset it which is not safe.
I used a self latching relay so you have to restart the machine after an estop.

I have not looked into any built in estop function on the input terminals X1,X2 etc but I remember something about them in the instructions so there might be a way.

[Spyke]

It's only for personal use. At the moment there is no estop, so cutting com of switch will be saver than it is :fat:
There is a option for estop in menu, but I don't know what it do, so I have to test it. I don't also know what happens if one post is connected to ground permanent by operation switch.

Will use Bangood AT2 model to control swimming pool pump. Pump should operate on low frequency, (less consumption). But wenn starting at 20 Hz the pump will not start. Pump starts st higher frequency.
Anyone know how I can setup parameters?

[ricci.hackett]

Hi, I've installed one of these xsy-at1 vfd to run a belt sander, while all my parameters run it correctly, I'm not getting the correct voltage output. I get the 220 coming on but am only getting 156 coming out. Has anyone else ran into this issue? Any ideas as to why this is happening?

[routercnc]

I have this inverter but I didn’t measure the 3 phase output voltage as it seemed to work just fine. It’s interesting that 240 x sqrt(2) is 157, which is a guide between peak and rms. But of course the 240V input is already the rms so I can’t see why it wouldn’t be 240V on the 3 phases output. Hopefully someone closer to 3 phase could confirm this is what you should see.
The other possibility is a faulty unit of course. If you get confirmation that it should be 240V then let the seller know and see what happens.

[routercnc]

I assume this is at full speed ? If so saybe the parameters are not quite right as the voltage and frequency both vary to change the motor speed.

Maybe this will help to ensure parameters match the motor plate to get the full speed range:
https://inverterdrive.com/HowTo/inv/

[fraserp]

I have a AT1 but looking at my manual for configuring inputs PTP it gives options 10 and 11 both as keying forward switching. I assume this is a typo and one should be keying stop.
I assume keying means recieving a momentary start command from a push button. So logically there must be an input to stop it once it is running?

Hi people.....

Does anyone use the RS485 on this VFD???

I cant seem to find any documentation for the pinout OR the address registers and data format for this drive. Not in any of the manuals I have seen so far.
