Chapter 5 Trial Operation and
Tuning
This chapter is divided into two parts to describe the trial operation. The first one is the
inspection without load and another one is the inspection with load. For safety reasons,
please conduct the first inspection.
5.1 Inspection without Load
Please remove the load of the servo motor, including coupling on the shaft and accessories
so as to avoid any damage on servo drive or mechanism. This is aiming to avoid the falling
off of the disassembled parts of the motor shaft and indirectly causing the personnel injury
or equipment damage during operation. Running the motor without load, if the servo motor
can run during normal operation, then it can connect to load for operation.
Caution: Please operate the servo motor without load first. If the servo motor runs
normally, connect the load afterwards in order to avoid any danger.
Please check the following items before operation.
Inspection before
operation
(has not applied to
the power yet)
Check if there is any obvious damage shown on its appearance.
The splicing parts of the wiring terminal should be isolated.
Make sure the wiring is correct so as to avoid the damage or any
abnormity.
Check if the electric conductivity objects including sheetmetal
(such as screws) or inflammable objects are not inside the servo
drive.
Check if the control switch is in OFF status.
Do not place the servo drive or external regenerative resistor on
inflammable objects.
To avoid the electromagnetic brake losing efficacy, please check
if stop function and circuit break function can work normally.
If the peripheral devices are interfered by the electronic
instruments, please reduce electromagnetic interference with
devices.
Please make sure the external voltage level of the servo drive is
correct.
When connecting other brand of rotary motor, please setup
motor parameters before operation. Please refer to the Chapter
of Motor Parameter Setting.
Inspection before
running the servo
drive
(has already applied
to the power)
The encoder cable should avoid excessive stress. When the
motor is running, make sure the cable is not frayed or over
extended.
Please contact with Delta if there is any vibration of the servo
motor or unusual noise during the operation.
Make sure the setting of the parameters is correct. Different
