Tune the Axes
The load observer feature provides high-performance motion control without
having to tune your axis. Using load observer with auto-tuned gains can
maximize system performance. Refer to Motion System Tuning Application
Techniques, publication
MOTION-AT005 (Load Observer Feature section), for
more load observer information.
Follow these steps to tune the axes.
1. Verify the load is still removed from the axis being tuned.
2. Click the Autotune category.
3. Type values for Travel Limit and Speed.
In this example, Travel Limit = 5 and Speed = 10. The actual value of
programmed units depend on your application.
4. From the Direction pull-down menu, choose a setting appropriate for your
application.
Forward Uni-directional is default.
5. Edit other fields as appropriate for your application.
6. Click Start.
ATTENTION: To reduce the possibility of unpredictable motor
response, tune your motor with the load removed first, then re-attach
the load and perform the tuning procedure again to provide an
accurate operational response.
