8.2 Conguration of the PositionServo

PositionServo for your particular motor, mode of operation, and additional features if
used.
Drive configuration consists of following steps:
• Motor Selection
• Mode of operation selection
• Reference source selection (Very Important)
• Drive parameters (i.e. current limit, acceleration / deceleration) setup
• Operational limits (velocity or position limits) setup
• Input / Output (I/O) setup
• Velocity / position compensator (gains) setup
• Optionally store drive settings in a PC file and exit the MotionView program.
To congure drive:
1.
Ensure that the control is properly installed and mounted. Refer to Section 4
for installation instructions.
2.
Perform wiring to the motor and external equipment suitable for desired
operating mode and your system requirements.
