.
Figure 9: "General configuration" window - "General configuration" tab
In the
Application
field, you can choose between a rotatory (indication of values in
revolutions, degrees or radian) and translatory application (indication of values in units of
length). The checkbox
Linear motor
can be optionally ticked. As a result, the picture in the
lower window pane changes. When using linear motors, ensure to tick the checkbox
Motor without commutating generator
.
The checkbox
Holding torque compensation
must be ticked if the application is subject to
stress due to permanent torque in one direction (e.g. weight in the case of a vertical axis).
In this case, the holding torque of a servo drive will be used as a feedforward value when
the holding brake is released in speed control or position control mode or during a
positioning run in order to minimise the sagging of the axis due to its own weight. The
servo drive automatically updates the required holding torque when it is enabled. As a
result, possible load changes are continuously tracked. If the servo drive is enabled after
the first activation of the holding torque compensation function, the feedforward-controlled
holding torque is still zero. If the holding torque compensation is not activated, the
feedforward control is automatically set to zero.
