4.2.2 Connecting the PC and drive controller
The PC can be connected to the drive controller via Ethernet (TCP/IP). Connect the PC and drive controller accordingly
using an Ethernet cable.
Note:
• Initialization
Communication between the PC and the drive controller can only be established once the drive controller has com-
pleted its initialization.
• TCP/IP configuration
If the PC does not detect the connected drive controller, check the Ethernet port settings (see DriveManager 5
Installation Manual).
4.2.3 Parameter setting
For drive system setup DriveManager 5 includes a Commissioning Wizard. Start the Wizard.

• In conjunction with servo actuators and -motors of Harmonic Drive AG, the YukonDrive® controllers are already
set up (motor- and feedback data, control, limits). Only application specific settings have to be done.
4.2.4 Controlling the drive with DriveManager 5
Switch on the AC mains supply. Then enable the power stage and activate the control. The drive should be tested with
no coupled mechanism.
DANGER FROM ROTATING PARTS!
Danger to life from uncontrolled rotation! Before motors with a feather key at the shaft end are commissioned,
the feather key should be secured against being ejected, if this cannot be prevented by drive elements such as pulleys,
couplings, or the like.
Attention!
• Avoid damage by motor test run!
In this case it must be ensured that the test will not cause any damage to the system! Pay particular attention to
the limitations of the travel range.
Please note that you yourself are responsible for safe operation. Harmonic Drive AG cannot accept liability for any
damage incurred.
