Saving and Copying VFD Parameters to the Keypad

Copying TO the Keypad

Copying FROM the Keypad into the drive

Hi- Today a customer was asking how to copy and save Danfoss VFD parameters to the keypad.

This process is very useful as a fast way to program drives— say that you have 1 vfd setup the way you want, and you want to copy those parameters to all of the other vfds exactly.

Heres how you do it:

1. Parameter 0-50 LCP Copy set to [1] “All to LCP”

The “LCP” is Danfoss jargon for the keypad, this saves all the existing parameters TO the keypad

2. Remove the keypad by tilting down from the top, install keypad in the drive that you want to program

If the new drive is the same size as the saved drive then:

3. Parameter 0-50 set to [2] “All from LCP” Takes the saved data FROM the LCP into the drive

If the VFDs aren’t the same sizes:

Parameter 0-50 set to [3] “Size indep. of LCP” meaning that all the parameters except the motor data will be sent to the new vfd. You will have to program the motor info (Motor FLA etc) manually.

Make sure to check the motor rotation and other startup checklist items, this is just a quick way to get the parameters entered.
