Abstract
A method and a device for operating an asynchronous machine include controlling the rotor and the stator of the machine during start-up with respective first and second direct converter units. After the start-up the second direct converter unit is isolated from the stator and is connected to the rotor in parallel with the first direct converter unit. Therefore, direct converter units which are already available for performing a mains operation are used during start-up.
