18. • Tune drive before
working with CPU
• Recalculate motor
parameters
• Stationary measurement
• Rotating measurement
• Test movement from
Control Panel
• Check motor direction
• Check motor speed, load
Commissioning: Drive
19. • Control loop
• Extra tuning
• Dynamic Servo Control
• For First Commissioning,
set gain = 0
• Prevents any accidental moves
Commissioning: Technology Object
20. • Data exchange
• Can invert direction here
• Make sure the encoder
parameters are set correctly!
• Dynamic defaults
• Used when not specified
• Make sure they are not
too high
Commissioning: Technology Object
21. • Understand and choose what drives to use
• Do drive tuning before integrating with PLC
• Set the Technology Object Gain to 0 during first commissioning
• Reverse motor direction from Data exchange setup
• Set the dynamic default speeds
Summary
23. • Keep commands together
• Calling multiple commands will interrupt each other
• Easier to track & debug
• Do not put logic on EN rung
• Standard practice for acyclic blocks
• Should be called every scan
Tips & Tricks
24. • Create helpful udts & blocks
• Split the status word into bits
• Make the error word more useful
Tips & Tricks
25. • All Axes in project can use an instance
of the same block
• Changes get pushed to all at once
• Easy to drop into place
• Sequence and control logic outside
of the block
Example: Reusable Block
26. c
• Contain complicated logic
• Some functions used with all moves
• Customize the interface for more
intuitive control
• No unused commands
• Saves memory
• Incorporate specific alarms
Example: Unique Block
27. • Keep motion commands together
• Create reusable udts & functions
• Choose a consistent architecture & use it
Summary
31. c
• Sample with any OB
• MC-Servo does
servo calculation
• Trigger on tag
• Make tag for events
• Pre-trigger for more info
Tracing
32. • Velocity Gearing
• Great at following speed
with ratio
• Gear ratio is DINT/DINT
• Approximate position
gearing
Gearing
33. c
• Adds a motion on top of the current motion
• Can adjust the ending position in the middle of an absolute move
• Can adjust the current position in a velocity move
• Several possible
velocity profiles
Superimposed Moves
34. • Combine superimposed move with gearing
• Monitor current position vs where it should be
• Adjust if too far off using superimposed move
Combined
35. • Alarm based on the error word
• TO_Axis.ErrorDetail.Number
• Technology Alarm
• Text List based on alarm number
Alarming
36. • Use tracing to follow what you cannot see
• Keep track of

Acknowledge skipping first commissioning, then talk about tuning
Tip: Avoid other problems with commissioning by tuning first
G120 and S120 almost the same thing, but it other software
Draw better lines
Stationary and rotating measurements collect additional data for tighter tuning
