Drive Analog Output X Scale

SPAnalogOutput.#.Scale

The Scale parameter is only available if the user has selected User Defined SP Menu from the Source list box. The Scale 
parameter ranges from 0.000 to 4.000 and is multiplied with the selected SP Menu Parameter to achieve the ultimate output 
value. This parameter directly accesses 7.20 or 7.23 depending on the specific analog output channel.

Drive Analog Output X Source

SPAnalogOutput.#.Source

This parameter is used to define the source value for the given analog output channel. The user can select from the following 
choices:

Predefined Module Variables

Following Error

Velocity Command

Velocity Feedback

User Defined Module Variable

User Defined SP Menu

Predefined Fast Mode Parameters

Menu 3.02 (Speed)

Menu 4.02 (Active Current)

Menu 4.17 (Magnetizing Current)

Menu 5.03 (Output Power)

Based on which Source parameter is selected, different scaling parameters will become available. When the Fast Mode 
parameters are selected, there are no scaling parameters available. Also, when selecting any of the four fast mode 
parameters, the Analog Output Mode must also be set to Fast Mode.

Drive Analog Output X SP Parameter Source

SPAnalogOutput.#.SPMenuSource

If User Defined SP Menu is selected from the Source list box, then the user must define which parameter from within the 
Unidrive SP Menu structure is to be used as the source for the analog output. When the user selects a parameter, the current 
value of that parameter will constantly be used to update the value of the analog output. For a list of parameters that can be 
used, refer to the Drive Menu Watch view in PowerTools Pro, or the Unidrive SP

 Advanced User Guide

.

 I/O Status Word

SPConnect.DigitalIOReadWord

This parameter is a bitmap that contains the status of the digital I/O on the Unidrive SP. This parameter is read-only and is 
used to control the virtual LED’s on the Drive I/O Setup view.

Unidrive SP Drive Mode

SPDrive.DriveMode

This parameter is accessible from the Drive/Encoder view and allows the user to define what type of application the Unidrive 
SP will be configured for. Available selections from this list box are Servo and Closed-loop Vector. Based on the setting of this 
parameter, information on the motor tab will change to allow configuration of the different motor parameters, and the SM-
EZMotion module will automatically change the Unidrive SP’s operating mode on power up or warm start. This parameter 
cannot be changed while online.

 Unidrive SP Encoder Supply Voltage

SPDrive.EncoderSupplyVoltage

This list box found on the Motor/Encoder View provides direct access to parameter 3.36 of the drive frequency/speed 
configuration menu. To support many different applications, the Unidrive SP can provide several different supply voltages. 
Select from 5V, 8V, or 15V to be provided from the drive hardware to the encoder. Be sure to set this to a value equal to or 
lower than the encoder supply specification. Setting this too high could potentially damage the encoder.

 Unidrive SP Software Sub-Version

SPDrive.SoftwareSubVersion

The Unidrive SP software (or firmware) revisions are named using an xx.yy.zz format. xx.yy is displayed in parameter 11.29 of 
the database, and zz is displayed in parameter 11.34. This parameter can be found on the Information tab on the Status view 
while Online with PowerTools Pro.
