6.16 Optimizing the drive and controller
6.16.1 Overview of automatic controller setting
Overview
For the controller optimization of the drive, SIMOTION SCOUT offers a wizard for the
automatic controller setting.
In the "Automatic Controller Setting" screen form, you can configure an automatic setting for
the speed controller and the DSC (dynamic servo control) position controller for SINAMICS
drive units. The necessary steps for this calculation can be controlled from this screen form.
The parameter values calculated for the speed controller or position controller are displayed;
these can then be transferred online to the drive or axis on the controller.
You can set the controller automatically using the menu command "Target system" >
"Automatic controller setting".
