Configuration
When the default settings of the easy servo drive are not suitable for your application, it is necessary
to configure the drive via the DIP switch or ProTuner (the setup software). Otherwise you may
encounter problems like high motor heating, big motor noise or even motor stall due to weak torque.
For a quick start of the easy servo drive, there are not much parameters need to be configured. The
following table gives the most significant parameters of the easy servo drive.

Auto Tuning at Power-up
: It is possible to disable this feature in the setup software in order to tune
the current loop Kp and current loop Ki manually if the auto tuning result is not good enough. This
happens when the motor
’
s inductance or resistance is too high or too low.
The holding current affects the holding torque when the motor is stop. The close-loop current affects
the dynamic torque. Increase them if the torque is not enough.
