Configuring the Ultra3000 Drive Chapter 3

The status is displayed by default for an Ultra3000 drive in the Autotuning
window of the Tuning branch:

These commands can be executed on an online drive using the Autotuning
window of the Tuning branch:

Customize the Autotuning window for your Ultra3000 Drive by selecting one or
more of these commands:

Velocity Regulator Gains

P

Proportional gain for the velocity loop. The P gain generates a
control signal proportional to the velocity error. It has a range of
0…4000.
Note: Increasing the P gain improves response time and
increases the stiffness of the system. Too high a P gain value
causes instability; too low a P gain value results in loose or
sloppy system dynamics.

I

Integral gain for the velocity loop. The I gain generates a control
signal proportional to the integral of the velocity error. It has a
range of 0…4000.
Note: I gain improves the steady-state velocity performance of
the system. Increasing the integral gain generally increases the
ultimate positioning accuracy of the system. However excessive
integral gain results in system instability.

D

Derivative gain value for the velocity loop. The D gain generates
a control signal proportional to measured acceleration. It has a
range of -1000…1000.
Note: Positive D gain reduces velocity overshoot, and negative D
gain should be used only in systems that exhibit mechanical
resonance.

Status

Description

Drive Enabled

ON indicates the power stage of the drive is enabled. As a
precondition, all software and hardware enable inputs must be
active, and the drive cannot have any faults.
Note: Drive Enable has a value of 1 when ON, and a value of 0
when OFF.

Autotune Complete

ON indicates the autotune completed successfully.

Autotune Failed

ON indicates the autotune failed.

Command

Description

Start Autotune

Begins autotuning.

Stop Autotune

Stops autotuning.

Clear Faults

Attempts to clear all drive faults.
