6 Start-up
6.1 Linear Motor and Rotary Motor
Linear motor and rotary motor are electrically independent units. The commissioning of the linear motor can
therefore be performed sequentially. It does not matter which motor (linear motor or rotary motor) is
commissioned first.
The various parameters for the linear motor and the rotary motor are set on the drive side via the Motor
Wizard in the LinMot Talk configuration program.
Do not drive into the internal mechanical stops!
It must be ensured that the linear motor does not move to the internal stop during operation
under any circumstances, as otherwise the linear motor may be damaged! The internal
stops may be used for the purpose of homing, but the homing speed must not exceed 0.01
m/s.
6.2 Default Values of the Coordinate System
6.2.1 Angle of Rotation
Looking into the shaft, the positive
counterclockwise counting direction of the angle of
rotation is defined.
6.2.2 Position
With regard to the motor, the positive counting
direction of the position is defined by retracting the
stroke rotary shaft.
To invert the coordinate system you will find detailed information in chapter 6.4.3.
6.3 Plug and Play Function for Linear Rotary Motors
LinMot linear rotary motors of the latest generation are Plug and Play capable (see motor label "PnP"). This
means that they register with the drive independently. The module- and motor-specific parameters are
automatically stored in the drive and the motor is ready for operation.
Application-specific parameters, such as cable length, load mass, PID control settings etc. can be entered by
the user using the Motor Wizard.
To do this, click on the Motor Wizard symbol in the task bar of the LinMot-Talk software.
Then follow the sequence of steps from chapter 6.4.2.
