Commissioning Wizard
Each type of motor and drive combination has different performance characteristics.
Before the MicroFlex e190 can be used to control the motor accurately, the
MicroFlex e190 must be ‘tuned'. Tuning is the process where the MicroFlex e190
powers the motor in a series of tests. By monitoring the drive's output and the
feedback from the motor's encoder, the MicroFlex e190 can make small adjustments
to the way it controls the motor. This information is stored in the MicroFlex e190 and
can be uploaded to a file if necessary.
The Commissioning Wizard provides a simple way to tune the MicroFlex e190 and
create the necessary configuration information for your drive/motor combination, so
this is the first tool that should be used. If necessary, any of the parameters set by the
Commissioning Wizard can be adjusted manually after commissioning is complete.

Using the Commissioning Wizard
Each screen of the Commissioning Wizard requires you to enter information about
the motor, drive or application. Read each screen carefully and enter the required
information. When you have completed a screen, click Next > to display the next
screen. If you need to change something on a previous screen, click the < Back
button. The Commissioning Wizard remembers information that you have entered so
you do not need to re-enter everything if you go back to previous screens. If you need
extra help, click Help or press F1.
Select your Motor Type:
Select the type of motor that you are using; rotary or linear, brushless or induction.
Select your Motor:
Carefully enter the details of your motor. If you are using a Baldor motor, the catalog
number or spec. number can be found stamped on the motor's nameplate. If you are
using a motor with EnDat feedback, are using a different manufacturer’s motor, or
need to enter the specification manually, select the ‘Enter motor parameters
manually’ option.
Confirm Motor and Drive information:
If you entered the catalog or spec. number on the previous page, it is not necessary
to change anything on this screen; all the required data is entered already. However,
if you selected the ‘Enter motor parameters manually’ option, it is necessary to enter
the required information before continuing.
Motor Feedback:
If you entered the catalog or spec. number on the previous page, it is not necessary
to change anything on this screen; the feedback resolution is entered already.
However, if you selected the ‘Enter motor parameters manually’ option, it is
necessary to enter the feedback resolution before continuing.
