Tune Permanent Magnet Motors
The load observer feature provides high-performance motion control without
having to manually tune your axis. Using load observer with a default set of
gains can yield high-performance right out of the box. Most of the time, there is
no need to perform an auto-tune procedure or further optimize gain settings.
Follow these steps to configure the drive for high-performance by using the
load observer feature.
1.
Verify that the load is connected.
Re-attach the load if it was disconnected for the Hookup Test.
2.
Click the Autotune category in the Axis Properties dialog box.
a. From the pull-down menus for Application Type, Loop Response,
and Load Coupling, choose Custom, Medium, and Rigid settings,
respectively.
b. Verify that only the Velocity Feedforward box is checked.
3.
Click the Load category in the Axis Properties dialog box.
a. Check Use Load Ratio.

remove power from the drive in the event of an unstable situation
where the drive can produce undesired motion.
