Exercise #2 – Controlling
Speed in Host Mode

This exercise issues a host command to set the speed of the motor. It
builds on the Ultra family command previously issued to place the
drive in velocity set point control mode. The command string
parameters to set the motor speed to 500 rpm are:

Note: The numbers are hexadecimal.

1. Convert 500 rpm to an 8 character, hexadecimal value. Assume a

standard encoder with 2000 lines per revolution (8000 counts/rev)
to calculate the hexadecimal data value:

2. Calculate the checksum and convert to hexadecimal by subtracting

760 from 256 (256 - 760 = -504), and converting -504 to hex
(0xFFFFFE08).

3. Prefix the string with a colon and append the two least significant

digits of the hex value (08) to the end of the command string.

4. Type the command string into Hyperterminal followed by the

Enter key. The motor will rotate at 500 rpm when the drive is
enabled.

5. Stop the motor using the same command by setting the speed to

zero (0) rpm.
