You can alternatively use the SMARTCARD that comes with the drive to externally save the drive’s parameters and transfer them to other drives. To save parameters on the SMARTCARD insert it into the SMARTCARD slot on the front of the drive. Navigate to parameter 0.30 (or SE09 in the sub-block menu) and change the value to Prog. Press the red reset button on the keypad. This will write the parameters in the drive onto the card. To transfer the parameters from the SMARTCARD onto a drive, insert the SMARTCARD into the desired drive. Navigate to parameter 0.30 (or SE09 in the sub-block menu) and change the value to READ. Press the red reset button on the keypad. This will write the parameters on the SMARTCARD onto the drive. Perform a parameter save. Follow link for more detailed information on SMARTCARD use. https://controltechniquesfaqhelp.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/article_attachments/360068198714/Mentor_MP_Using_ Smartcard.pdf

The Advanced User Guide Mentor MP covers parameter structure, the keypad and display, parameter xx.00, the parameter reference guide, serial communications protocol, and performance for both the Mentor MP and Quantum MP drives. It can be also downloaded from the links above.

The rating label can be found on the upper left hand corner of the drive cover.

See section 3.6 of the Mentor MP user guide or section 3.5 of the Quantum MP user guide for the information and equation needed to calculate the size of a sealed enclosure.

How do I size an enclosure for my Mentor MP DC Drive?

How do I select an external suppression resistor for my Mentor MP DC Drive?

See section 4.7 of the Mentor MP user guide or section 4.10 of the Quantum MP user guide for information on sizing an external suppression resistor for your drive.

See section 4.6 of the Mentor MP user guide or section 4.9 of the Quantum MP user guide for information on cable and fuse sizing, compiled in the pdf link below. https://controltechniquesfaqhelp.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/article_attachments/360069318613/Mentor_MP_Cable_and_ Fuse_Sizing.pdf

Where can I find the part number,voltage, and power rating information label on my Mentor MP Drive or Quantum MP?

What cable size and fusing should I use with my Mentor MP DC drive?

What size line reactor or choke should I use with my Mentor MP DC Drive?

See section 4.4 of the Mentor MP user guide, or the Quantum MP user guide for information on sizing line reactors for your drive.

Apply 24 vdc to drive terminal 31, the enable terminal. Parameter 8.09 will show the status of the enable terminal, and parameter 6.29 will show if the drive is enabled or not. If 24 vdc is present at terminal 31, but the drive still shows Inh on the status screen check parameter 6.15 (the software enable). 6.15 should read ON. If it shows on, but the drive is still in the Inhibit state, turn 6.15 OFF and then turn it back ON again. You can also remove the 24 vdc from terminal 31 and reapply it for the same effect. See parameters 6.15, 6.29, and 8.09 in the Advanced User Guide Mentor MP for additional information. You can also find more details in sections 4.14 of the Mentor MP user guide, and section 4.16 of the Quantum MP user guide. First use figure 4-21 in the Mentor MP user guide to determine which analog input (input 1, input 2, or input 3) you are looking to reprogram. Next use section 11.7 of the Mentor MP or Quantum MP user guide to identify the destination parameter for your desired terminal (i.e. for analog input 1 it is parameter 7.10). Navigate to that parameter and edit the value to match the parameter you would like your selected analog input to point to.

For the Quantum MP, first follow the steps required to set the Mentor MP back to factory default settings, through the link below:

How do I reprogram the Mentor MP drive's analog input parameter destination from the default control setting?

Press the red reset button on the keypad to make the change take effect.

For the Mentor MP navigate to parameter 00 in any menu. Press the mode button to enter edit mode and scroll up to find the parameter value that reads USA (or EUR for European defaults). Press the red reset button on the keypad. Then perform a parameter save.
