Static autotune
Quantum MP is able to perform either a static, rotating or continuous autotune. The motor must be at a
standstill before an autotune is enabled.
Static autotune for current loop gains
When this operation is performed the drive will perform an estimation of
Motor constant
(Pr
5.15
),
Continuous
proportional gain
(Pr
4.13
),
Continuous integral gain
(Pr
4.14
),
Discontinuous integral gain
(Pr
4.34
), Back
EMF set point (Pr
5.59
),
Armature resistance
(Pr
5.61
) and
Flux loop I gain
(Pr
5.72
) with respect to the
selected motor map and store the values.
To perform a static autotune:
•
Set Pr
5.12
(
SE13, 0.34
)= 1
•
Close the Drive Enable signal (terminal 31). The drive will display ‘rdY’
•
Close the run signal (terminal C8). The lower display will flash ‘Auto’ and ‘tunE’ alternatively, while the
drive is performing the autotune
•
Remove the enable signal when the autotune has finished
•
Remove the run signal
Checking speed
feedback
•
Close the enable signal. Close the run signal (terminal C8). Provide speed reference to run the drive up to
a low speed, the drive will regulate its own estimated speed
•
Check that the feedback device is functioning correctly:
For encoder speed feedback - Check encoder speed feedback Pr
3.27
(
Fb09, 0.79
).
For tachometer speed feedback - Check tactometer speed feedback Pr
3.52
(
Fb04, 0.74
)
•
When the feedback device being used is seen to be functioning correctly, stop the drive and select the
correct feedback device using Pr
3.26
(
Fb01,
Pr
0.71
)
For improved estimated speed accuracy and torque control in the field weakening range, a rotating autotune is
recommended to determine the motor flux characteristics Pr
5.12
(
SE13,
Pr
0.34
) = 2
Rotating
autotune
Quantum MP is able to perform either a static, rotating or continuous autotune. The motor must be at a
standstill before an autotune is enabled.
A rotating autotune cannot be carried out in Estimated speed mode.
Rotating autotune for motor field flux set-up
When selected the drive will determine the rated field compensation factor (Pr
5.74
) for rated flux and the
motor field winding saturation break-points (Pr
5.29
), (Pr
5.30
) by spinning the motor at 25% of its base speed
(Pr
5.06
) with respect to the selected motor map and store the values.
To perform an autotune:
•
Set Pr
5.12
(
SE13, 0.34
) = 2 for a rotating autotune
•
Close the Drive Enable signal (terminal 31). The drive will display ‘rdY’
•
Close the run signal (terminal C8). The lower display will flash ‘Auto’ and ‘tunE’ alternatively, while the
drive is performing the autotune
•
Wait for the drive to display ‘inh’ and for the motor to come to a standstill
If the drive trips, see Chapter 13
•
Remove the drive enable and run signal from the drive.
Save parameters
Select SAVE in Pr
1.00
(
SE00, 0.21
)
Press the red
reset button or toggle the reset digital input (terminal C14) (ensure Pr
xx.00
(
SE00, 0.21
)
returns to ‘no Act’)
Run
Drive is now ready to run

Detail
NOTE
NOTE
A rotating autotune will cause the motor to accelerate up to
1
/
4
base speed in the direction selected
regardless of the reference provided. Once complete the motor will coast to a stop. The enable signal
must be removed before the drive can be made to run at the required reference.
The drive can be stopped at any time by removing the run signal or removing the drive enable.
