B.1.2 Positioning system without speed controller
Setting
CONFIG
to
_cfTORQUE_SERVO
configures the MintDrive
II
to act as a different type of
positioning system, as shown in Figure 55. Here, the speed controller is not present and the
position controller performs the task of speed tracking. To achieve this, the position controller
generates a torque demand signal directly. In most positioning applications, the control
structure which includes the speed loop (
_cfSERVO
) will give superior results. However, in a
few applications where stationary positioning accuracy is the most overriding criteria, removal
of the speed loop can sometimes be beneficial. This mode is also useful for applications which
are designed to stall at known torque while in position control.
