12.4 Synchronous motor: Pole posion idencaon (PPI)
For controlling a permanent-magnet synchronous motor, the pole posion - the angle
be
tween the motor phase U and the eld axis of the rotor - must be known.
•
F
or Lenze motors with absolute value encoder or resolver, the pole posion has already
been se
t correctly.
•
When incremental encoders are used (TTL or sin/cos encoders without absolute posion
informaon), a pole posion idencaon (PPI) is always required. This also applies to
Lenze motors.
NOTICE
The pole posion
idencaon (PPI) must only be executed
▶
for servo control with a synchronous motor of an original equipment manufacturer.
▶
for servo control with a synchronous motor and incremental encoders (TTL or sin/cos
encoder).
▶
aer changes to the motor feedback system, e.g. feedback replacement.
The parameter sengs for pole posion idencaon are accessed in »EASY Starter« via the

Three dierent idencaon methods are oered here:
•
360° electric
al
•
With min. movement
•
Without movement
The criteria for selecng the most suitable idencaon method are presented below.
Selecon criteria for using the suitable pole posion idencaon
For idenfying the pole posion for the currently
acvated feedback, the following funcons
are available which all provide almost the same result. Due to e.g. fricon, bearing forces and
a trapezoidal eld paern, the results may dier from each other.

The mot
or must not be braked, blocked or mechanically driven during the pole posion
idencaon! This funcon must not be used for hanging loads!
•
Especially in c
ase of idling drives or drives with a low load (inera / fricon), this funcon
delivers the most accurate results.

The mot
or must not be braked, blocked or driven during the pole posion idencaon!
Thus, this funcon must not be used for hanging loads!
•
R
egarding the accuracy, this funcon is in the middle range. A percentage increase of the
current amplitude can enhance the accuracy of the results if required.

ole posion idencaon (PPI) without movement ^ 210
•
In c
ase of stalled motors (e.g. with hanging loads), only this funcon shall be used!
•
This funcon was developed for a wide range of motor characteriscs. In case of some
mot
or types, however, the idened pole posion angle may dier considerably from the
real pole posion angle, so that a considerable loss in torque and greater motor losses may
occur. Thus, especially when using third-party motors, we recommend the execuon of a
reference idencaon with an idling motor4P
ole posion idencaon (PPI) 360° .

If the idened values of both processes dier from each other by more than 20°, please
contact Lenze.
