Appendix D

Out-of-Box Gain Settings

This method of setting controller gains works for unknown loads or when an
auto-tune is not performed. It produces a relatively high level of performance in
90% of motion applications. Most of the time, there is no need to perform an
auto-tune procedure or further optimize gain settings. As a result, it has become
the default out-of-box setting for Kinetix drives using integrated motion on the
EtherNet/IP network.

Follow these steps to configure the drive for high performance right out of the
box.

1. Create a new axis with type AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE.

If you need more information to create a new axis, refer to Configure the
Kinetix 6000 Drive Modules on

page 144

.

2. Click the Drive/Motor tab in the Axis Properties dialog box and add a

motor.

If you need more information to add a motor, refer to Configure Axis
Properties on

page 149

.

3. Click the Gains tab in the Axis Properties dialog box.

The current Velocity Proportional Gain value is used to recalculate other
gain values.

4. Make the following calculations:

a. Load Observer Bandwidth: Kop = Velocity Proportional Gain x 2.56

b. Velocity Loop Bandwidth: Kvp = Kop/4

c. Position Loop Bandwidth: Kpp = Kvp/4
