Product Information

Product Family: 9300 Series | Series: 9300 Series

The Lenze EVS9321-EK is a 0.75 kW servo drive controller from the 9300 Series, specifically engineered as an electronic cam profiler. Operating on a 3-phase nominal supply voltage of 400/480 V AC with an acceptable operating range of 320 to 528 V AC, this IP20-rated unit replaces traditional mechanical cam disks by executing dynamic motion profiles directly within the drive firmware. Delivering an output frequency from 0 to 480 Hz alongside rated currents of 2.5 A at 400 V and 2.1 A at 480 V, the controller is widely utilized across packaging, printing, converting, and material handling machinery.

Interfacing the controller into an automated motion control architecture relies on dedicated Sub-D connectors X7 and X8 for resolver and master incremental encoder feedback, alongside an integrated CAN system bus operating up to 500 kbit/s. The front face features an Automation Interface (AIF) slot to accept optional fieldbus modules such as the EMF2133IB or EMF2131IB PROFIBUS-DP adapters, or an EMF2102IB XT Keypad Module. Commissioning a replacement unit requires a complete configuration transfer, as the drive stores up to four parameter sets within non-volatile EEPROM memory. Operating parameters and electronic cam tables can be managed using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) PC software via an EMF2177IB PC System Bus Adapter, or copied using the keypad module. ABC Industrial Parts can assist when parameter extraction from a faulty unit is needed to prepare a spare drive for service.

System diagnostic states are indicated directly on the front panel by green READY and red TRIP LEDs. A solid green light indicates operational readiness, while a solid red light flags an active TRIP condition that disables the power stage. Diagnostics, parameter access, and the internal TRIP fault buffer can be reviewed through an attached XT Keypad or via the GDC diagnostic window. First-line troubleshooting for trip faults involves measuring 3-phase AC input voltages, inspecting braking resistor wiring, and checking CAN bus termination resistors. When non-volatile memory corruption (EER) or internal board-level faults (H05) occur, internal hardware is not field-serviceable, making drive replacement or comprehensive unit repair through ABC Industrial Parts the recommended path to minimize machine downtime.

Programming and Configuration

Configuring the Lenze EVS9321-EK servo controller is accomplished primarily using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) PC software or the plug-in EMF2102IB XT Keypad Module. The controller includes internal non-volatile EEPROM memory capable of storing up to four complete parameter sets. These parameter sets save critical settings such as motor ratings, speed control loops, I/O assignment, and communication parameters, ensuring configuration retention across power cycles.

For electronic cam profiling applications, specialized curve tables and electronic motion profiles must be parameterised and uploaded into the drive memory. When commissioning a replacement spare, technicians must ensure that all application parameters and motion tables are transferred using GDC software and a PC adapter such as the EMF2177IB. Attempting to operate a drive without loading the required cam profile data results in execution errors such as fault code PR0.

Communication and System Integration

The Lenze EVS9321-EK features an integrated CAN system bus interface capable of operating at communication speeds up to 500 kbit/s. This system bus provides rapid inter-drive cross-communication and synchronization, enabling precise multi-axis motion control across complex machine lines. Internal CAN channels handle both process data objects and parameter transmission between connected drives and master controllers.

Fieldbus network integration is achieved through the front Automation Interface (AIF) slot. Plug-in modules, such as the EMF2133IB or EMF2131IB, allow direct connectivity to PROFIBUS-DP fieldbus networks. Proper physical bus installation requires placing a 120 Ohm bus termination resistor at both physical ends of the CAN system bus line to ensure reliable signal integrity and prevent bus-off communication errors.

Diagnostics and Status Indication

Diagnostic evaluation on the Lenze EVS9321-EK relies on front status LEDs, keypad monitoring codes, and software-based status screens. The green READY LED and red TRIP LED provide clear visual feedback regarding power stage readiness, active controller inhibits, warnings, and active shutdown faults.

Detailed diagnostic information and historical fault tracking are accessible by attaching an EMF2102IB XT Keypad Module or opening the diagnostic monitoring window in Global Drive Control (GDC). The controller maintains an internal TRIP history buffer that logs recent shutdown events, allowing technicians to trace transient issues such as supply voltage drops, motor thermal overloads, or feedback signal loss.

Status LED Indicators

LEDColor/StatusMeaning
READYGreen - Solid / Blinking / OffSolid = Drive operational and power stage ready; Blinking fast = Controller inhibit active; Off = Missing power supply or internal defect.
TRIPRed - Solid / Blinking / OffSolid = TRIP fault active (drive disabled); Blinking = Warning or advisory message active; Off = Normal operation without fault.

Replacement and Spare Part Considerations

When selecting a replacement for a failed drive, matching the complete part number EVS9321-EK is critical. The -EK suffix specifies the integrated electronic cam profiler functionality; substituting a generic 9300 series drive without this motion firmware will result in an inability to execute required electronic cam profile tables.

A replacement unit cannot operate straight out of the box without prior parameterization. Before putting a spare unit into production, parameter sets and cam tables must be backed up from the original drive and restored to the replacement unit using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software or an XT Keypad Module. Any option modules installed in the Automation Interface (AIF) slot, such as PROFIBUS communication cards, must be swapped to the replacement drive and checked for proper seating.

Frequently Asked Questions

What software is used to program and back up the Lenze EVS9321-EK?

The drive is configured and backed up using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) PC software via an EMF2177IB PC System Bus Adapter, or manually using an EMF2102IB XT Keypad Module.

How are parameter settings transferred to a replacement unit?

Up to four parameter sets are stored in internal EEPROM memory. Parameters can be extracted to a PC using GDC software or copied via the XT Keypad, then restored onto the replacement drive.

What feedback device interfaces are standard on this model?

The controller features dedicated Sub-D connectors X7 and X8 for connecting standard resolver sensors and incremental master encoders.

What does a PR0 fault code mean on this controller?

A PR0 fault indicates a cam program error caused by invalid cam profile data or uninitialized transition tables. Re-downloading the cam tables via GDC software resolves the fault.
