will calculate current loop gains based on
the values entered. Select “Motor Parameters” on the
“Setup” menu to activate this dialog.
Motor Resistance and Inductance are entered as phase
to phase values. If these values are not indicated on the
motor label, you can determine these values by measur-
ing the resistance or inductance between two motor
wires connecting two phases of the motor. Nominal DC
bus voltage is the regulated bus voltage, 160 or 320
volts typically. Current loop bandwidth is a measure of
the current loops responsiveness. Generally you want
this to be as high as possible. A good starting point is
1500 Hz. In order to update the motor parameters in the
amplifier, the amp must be disabled. You can do this by
clicking on the “Disable/Enable Amp” button first, then the “Send Values To Amp” button. Pressing F1
displays the dialogs help text. After the values are sent to the amp you may test the values by ena-
bling the amp.
Motor Safety
Motor safety is where limits to protect the motor are entered. The “Motor Safety Setup” dialog is avail-
able from the “Setup” menu. There are two sets of boxes, one labeled Working, the other Amplifier.
Amplifier displays the current amp setting while Working displays the users selection. Here you can
setup a maximum current limit, current foldback and low speed Motor safety is where limits to protect
the motor are entered. In order to update the motor parameters in the amplifier, the amp must be dis-
abled. You can do this by clicking on the “Disable/Enable Amp” button first then the “Send Values To
Amp” button. Pressing F1 displays the dialogs help text. After the values are sent to the amp, you
may test the values by enabling the amplifier.
