5 Functionality and Setting
5.1 General description
The driver setting is made through the DUP port. Through this connection
it is possible to modify all driver setting parameters, to read their status, the
production information and then to update the internal firmware. This latest
characteristic deserves particular attention as it allows to maintain the
product updated with the last implemented functionality.
To facilitate the driver setting it has been created a software, called
UDP
Commander
, designed for Windows platform, particularly immediate and
easy to use. The software makes use of the UDP30 interface to
communicate with the DUP port of the driver. The UDP30 interface is
connected to the PC by the USB port.
To grant high noise immunity and to safeguard the equipment integrity, the
connection between the PC and the driver must be of insulated type.
The UDP30 interface makes use of the power supply on the USB port to
feed the driver digital section, making possible the setting and the reading
of information therein contained even without the power supply.
For a more detailed description on the features and installation of the UDP
interface please see the dedicate user’s manual.
5.2 Setting
The setting must be made before connecting the motor and starting the
equipment.
A non correct setting can damage the motor and/or the equipment.
5.2.1 Phase current
It is necessary to pay more attention to the phase current setting as a wrong
value can cause the break of the motor.
Following are detailed the minimum and maximum current values among
which it is possible to choose according to the various models of driver.
