2. When two speed, wide constant power range motors (1327AD series)
are used, unique parameter sets are used for the low speed and high
speed windings. The two speed motors can be combined with up to a
three speed gearbox for a total of six unique sets of programmable
parameters. During drive operation, a single discrete input will select
the appropriate motor speed range and speed range parameter set.
3. Within each gear range/motor winding data set, discrete inputs can
select one of three primary operating modes; spindle, servo or torque.
For each of these modes there are independent sets of parameter data
values to control the velocity command source and scaling along with
the system dynamics. Also, within servo mode, two different velocity
scaling ranges can be selected.
Gear Range Data Sets
A Gear Range Data Set is a grouping of parameters that define a gear
range/motor winding configuration. A typical gear range data set consists
of the following:
Data Set for Standard Motor or Low Speed Winding on a Dual Winding Motor
- Overall System Configuration
- Standard Motor or Low Speed Motor Winding Parameter Set
- Spindle Mode Configuration and Tuning
- Servo Mode Configuration and Speed Range Select
High Range Tuning
Low Range Tuning
- Torque Mode Configuration and Tuning
- Spindle Orient Configuration and Tuning
Data Set for High Speed Winding on a Dual Winding Motor
- Overall System Configuration
- High Speed Motor Winding Parameter Set
- Spindle Mode Configuration and Tuning
- Servo Mode Configuration and Speed Range Select
High Range Tuning
Low Range Tuning
- Torque Mode Configuration and Tuning
- Spindle Orient Configuration and Tuning
Tip: To simplify initial drive setup, a Copy Data command is available
(GEAR RANGES menu). After programming a complete gear range/motor
winding data set, this command can copy the data set to any other gear
range/motor winding data set. The programmer then makes changes as
required to the copied data set.
Refer to GEAR RANGES Menu in Chapter 2 for further information.
