Faults
Faults occur on condi-
tions that make it im-
possible to operate the
amplifier in a safe and
stable condition. When a fault condition occurs, the ampli-
fier is disabled. The amplifier must be reset either with the
hardware reset switch or with software (Control Panel dia-
log) or through the external reset pin. Conditions that
cause faults are over currents, high or low bus voltages,
excessive operating temperatures, and faulty sensors or
amplifier hardware. An external fault can be generated by
the controller through the /FAULT pin. See the hardware
section for additional information on /FAULT. Display this
dialog by selecting “Status\Faults ” or via a button on MotionMaestro’s toolbar.
Warnings
A warning status indicates that the ampli-
fier is fully operational, but that it is operat-
ing in an unusual mode or in a condition
that warrants attention. Current fold back
is such a condition. Display this dialog by
selecting “Status\Warnings…” or via a
button on MotionMaestro’s toolbar.
Status
All other amplifier conditions that are not a fault or warning are dis-
played on the Status dialog. This status display is useful for diagnos-
tics, setup or monitoring during operation. Display this dialog by se-
lecting “Status\System Status…” or via a button on MotionMaestro’s
toolbar.
Control Panel
A properly connected motor can be controlled using the con-
trol panel. The control panel displays the amplifiers com-
manded current or velocity along with the motors actual veloc-
ity. From the control panel, you can easily command the mo-
tor. The control panel can be accessed through the “Tools”
pull down menu or from the control panel icon on Motion-
Maestro’s tool bar.
You may set positioning offsets or an exact position by de-
pressing the “Set Position” button. The Option button will al-
low you to set the maximum and minimum current, velocity,
and position.
