Cycle time for the measurement acquisition ³ 250 µs. 

Various value are graphically displayed in a diagram. You can display up to three variables simultaneously, as a function of time. 



Start 

Start recording the data.
 


Cancel 

Stops recording the data
 


Save 

Saves the recorded measurements to a data medium in CSV format (to be evaluated with MS-Excel).
 


Load 

Loads a CSV data file and displays the curves on the oscilloscope diagram.
 


Channel 

Assignment of the displayed variables to the channels. At present, the following variables can be selected: 

I_act 

Actual torque (current) 

I_CMD 

Torque setpoint 

v_act 

Actual velocity 

v_CMD 

Velocity setpoint 

VBUS 

DC-link (bus) voltage 

FERROR 

Following error 

Off 

Channel is not used 

user-defined 

Manual entry 

For each channel: the range of measurement can be selected automatically (Auto checkbox is active) or manually  (Auto checkbox is inactive, and min./max. values have been entered).
 


Mem 

If this is active when a new curve is recorded, the previous measurement is saved, so that a comparison can be made between two measurements. The previous measurement curve is displayed in a darker color than the latest curve. The measurement range settings must be identical for both measurements. If this is not so, the "Mem" checkbox will be de-activated and locked.
 


Auto/Min-Max 

Change-over of the scaling of the coordinate system from automatic to minimum/maximum
 


Update 

Loads and displays the latest set of data that was recorded, provided that this set has not been erased or overwritten.
 


Trigger level 

Y-value for triggering.
 


Trigger position 

X-value for triggering (time axis)
 


Trigger edge 

Triggering on the rising or falling edge.
 


Trigger signal 

The current and speed variables can be used as trigger signals. In addition, "Direct" can be used for immediate (independent) triggering. The setting "user-defined" enables manual entry of a parameter using ASCII.
 


Resolution 

The number of measured points per time unit (storage depth). Setting: fine, normal, coarse
 


Time/Division 

Scaling of the time axis. Select the time/division. Setting: 1 ... 500 ms/div
Total length of the time axis: 8 * x ms/Div 




Service functions 

Select one of the service functions described below. Click on the "Parameter" button and set the corresponding parameter. Then start the function by using the START button. The function will continue to be performed until you click on the STOP button or press the function key F9. 

Direct current 

Apply a direct current to the motor, with adjustable size and electrical field-vector angle. The changeover from speed control to current control is made automatically, commutation is made independently of the feedback (resolver or similar). The motor locks into a preferred position. 

Speed 

Operates the drive at constant speed. An internal digital setpoint is provided (speed is adjustable). 

Torque 

Operates the drive with constant current. An internal digital setpoint is provided (current is adjustable). The changeover from speed control to current control is made automatically, commutation is made independently of the feedback (resolver or similar). 

Reversing 

Operates the drive in reversing mode, with separately adjustable speed and reversing time for each direction of rotation. 

Motion Task 

Starts the motion task, which is selected on the screen page "Input Service Parameters" 

Zero 

Function for the automatic setting of the feedback unit phase according to the phase position of the motor. This function is only available in OPMODE2 

0notice.JPG  

With service function “Zero” the motor shaft moves into preferential position. It can implement a movement of up to ± 60°, in order to arrive there 



Service start 

Starts the selected service function.
 


Service stop 

Stops the selected service function.
 


Cursor-function 

When a data set is displayed (from a file, or by starting a recording) the measured values for the signals are displayed in the co-ordinate system for the selected time period by a mouse click. A click outside the coordinate system, or a click while pressing the shift-key, resets the values in the display to 0.
 


Default settings 

Resets all functions of the screen page to the default settings.
