AKD PDMM User Guide | 7.1.4.2 Validating Motor Parameters
In this view, you can import or export a motor parameter file, or create a custom motor of your choice. The
appropriate parameters must be chosen as listed. Several of the parameters allow you to select an alter-
nate unit of measure. When building a custom motor file, do not use blank spaces in the name you
choose. Once you have configured one or more custom motors, if you select a custom motor from the list
and click
OK , then the selected custom motor will be displayed in the Select Motor screen.
The actions available in the custom motor screen include:
l
New . Allows you to start a new custom motor (with default values) or load a catalog motor you may
want to modify.
l
Duplicate . Makes a copy of the highlighted motor in the custom motor list.
l
Delete . Deletes the highlighted motor in the customer motor list.
l
Import . Allows you to import a motor file (*.motor) from another location
l
Export . Allows you to save the highlighted motor file (*.motor) to another location
l
Apply . Accepts the values you have entered for the specific motor files you are entering.
l
OK . Returns you to the Motor Selection screen.
When entering any of the motor data, be certain the units are correct. The AKD PDMM drive uses the
motor parameters to set up the various feedback loops and limits associated with the motor selected.
Note that if you select a custom motor from the list and click OK , then that selected custom motor will be
displayed in the Select Motor screen.

tional attention.
