5. Click the Tune tab and enter these parameters:
•
Travel Limit - Set to within software limits
•
Speed (velocity)
•
Torque/Force
6. Click Start Tuning to access the Initiate Motion dialog box.
IMPORTANT
Set travel limits and the direction of tuning moves in reference to the thrust rod
starting position. Leave adequate travel for the thrust rod to complete its moves
while tuning.
ATTENTION: Software overtravel must be set prior to initiating the tuning process.
Check the thrust rod starting position and allow for adequate travel.
Insufficient travel while auto tuning will cause the software overtravel to trigger an
end-stop impact.
IMPORTANT
Only check Torque Offset, as shown below, if the electric cylinder is installed in a
non-horizontal mount position.
ATTENTION: Motion occurs immediately after clicking Yes in the Motion Initiation dialog
box.
