Getting started with VSD-E & VSD-XE 160
Manual Ver. 1.10
3.
Setting drive parameters
Follow
GDtool manual
for making connection to drive and choose one of the cases below.
Tip:
if you are getting led blinking sequences #9 or #11 (see VSD-E manual), the HV power supply probably has too
low power capability. In such case try increasing voltage and/or current limits of PSU.
Case A: you have GDtool motor configuration file from supplier
The easiest way to get motor operational is to
load motor configuration file supplied by motor seller
(if
available) to GDtool and drive. See figure below for doing so.
Note that the settings in typical
pre-configured files have quite loose position control parameters
(making
motor not stiff)
and those need to be tuned after motor is mounted on actual machine. We'll return in position tuning in
the last chapter.
Figure 4: Loading motor configuration to drive after connection to drive has been established.
Case B: no pre-configured motor settings file available
If ready configuration file for your motor was not available, follow
GDtool manual
and your
motor datasheet
for
motor parameter setting. In case of uncertainty, feel free to contact us for assistance.
After motor parameters are set, you may proceed to drive tuning. Follow the instructions of
Tuning manual
. Note that
it is not necessary to tune position controller very well at this point because position mode tuning has to be re-done
after motor is mounted on actual machine. This is because load on motor will have significant effect in position
response. We'll return in position tuning in the last chapter.
