Initial commissioning – Linear system

Commissioning wizard

The wizard is used for targeted navigation through the subject areas relevant to initial commissioning. Setting the parameters correctly enables subsequent controlled movement of the drive by way of the manual mode window. For exact adaptation of the drive system to an application, further settings need to be made.
If DriveManager 5 is opened with no project, a prompt appears asking if you want to carry out initial commissioning.


Hardware requirements



Prompt to perform initial commissioning

If this pop-up does not appear automatically, but you want to carry out commissioning using the wizard, you can also open the commissioning window again by clicking the pictogram or by way of the project tree. If the drive moves in an uncontrolled manner, or does not move at all, after initial commissioning, the parameter inputs must be checked.

Commissioning with wizard

The wizard helps you with the initial configuration of the controller. Work through the individual subject areas in the specified sequence. Then the motor and controller will be set up.

Subject area Action Instruction
Set the switching frequency and the voltage supply of the power stage. Adaptation of voltage supply to switching frequency
Parameter
P 0450 MOT_Type is automatically set to PSM if parameter P 0490_ MOT_IsLinMot = LIN(1).
Selection of motor
Selection for a linear motion system with
P 0490 = LIN(1)
Selection of motor system

Data set calculation:

Fill out "Calculation of control setup for linear synchronous motors" dialog box and start calculation

Calculation of motor data set
  • Set the I2xt monitor
  • Select of temperature sensor
  • Characteristic setting
Motor protection
  • Encoder selection
  • Channel selection
Encoder setting
  • Motor phase test
  • Determine encoder offset
  • Determine mass inertia
Automatic tests

Open manual mode window

  • Control mode VFC (open loop)
  • Move motor at low speed
  • Check direction
Motor test in manual mode without intervention of a higher-level PLC

Optimize current controller (test signal generator). When there is a motor data set the current of the test signal generator is set automatically.

Optimize speed controller

Determine mass inertia [J] (basic settings)

Speed filter setting:
P 0351 CON_SCALC_TF = (0,6 ms)
Recommendation:
SinCos encoder 0.2 ms - 0.6 ms
Resolver 1 ms - 2 ms Adapt control parameters to mechanism
(adjust rigidity).
