Restoring Factory Variable Parameters
: To restore the original factory variable parameters, pull
down the Configure menu, select Motor, and select the motor family and motor model. Click the “To
Drive” button to send the variable parameters to RAM and the “RAM/E
2
SAVE” button to save to
EEPROM.
Restoring Custom Variable Parameters
: This process assumes that you saved the custom variable
parameters to a .SSV file, as described above. To restore the custom parameters, pull down the Edit
menu, select Backup Variables, and click on “Open”. Highlight the custom .SSV file to import variable
parameters into editor. Click “Xmit” to send variable parameters to drive.
Terminal Mode
Use the
MOTIONLINK
Terminal Mode (or any other “dumb” host) to directly monitor or modify the
variable set and command the drive. This approach should only be taken when a PC with a Windows
operating system is not available and/or you are well-versed with the variable and command set.
Each variable and command are referenced for its syntax and parameter definition. The variables and
commands are grouped alphabetically for easy look-up and are found at the end of this manual. Be sure
you review this information before you begin.
Initial Startup
Most drives are shipped from the factory already configured for a particular motor. You can verify this
by applying logic power and monitoring the Status Display. A factory-configured drive goes through a
power-up sequence flashing all segments of the display before settling out to a number indicating the
mode of operation. If the drive is not configured with a particular motor, the display will flash a minus
sign "-", indicating that you must enter drive, motor, and application variable parameters. The remainder
of this section describes the process of setting up a non-configured drive.
Caution must be taken when applying power to the drive. It is factory-configured to
enable upon application of power. Verify that the hardware Remote Enable
(REMOTE) enable switch is disabled.
Upon powering up, the SERVO
STAR
performs a series of self-tests. If the Status Display illuminates a
solid number, then no errors were found and the EEPROM has loaded its variable parameters (or loaded
with default values in case of invalid EEPROM data) into RAM. The Remote Enable switch on the I/O
connector (C3) may now be energized, thus enabling the servo loops.
