Beforethe MicroFlex can be used to control the motor accurately, the MicroFlex must be “tuned”. Thisis the process where the MicroFlex powers the motor in a series of tests. By monitoring thefeedback from the motor’s encoder and performing a number of calculations, the MicroFlexcan make small adjustments to the way it controls the motor. This information is stored in theMicroFlex and can be uploaded to a file if necessary.The Commissioning Wizard provides a simple way to tune the MicroFlex and create thenecessary configuration information for your drive/motor combination, so this is the first toolthat should be used. However, if necessary any of the parameters set by the CommissioningWizard can be adjusted manually after commissioning is complete.6.2.4 Using the Commissioning WizardCAUTION: The motor will move during commissioning. For safety it is advisable todisconnect any load from the motor during initial commissioning. Themotor can be tuned with the load connected after the CommissioningWizard has finished.Each screen of the Commissioning Wizard requires you to enter information about the motoror drive. Read each screen carefully and enter the required information.If you need extra help, click the Help button or press F1 to display the help file.When you have completed a screen, click Next > to display the next screen. If you need tochange something on a previous screen, click the < Back button. The Commissioning Wizardremembers information that you have entered so you will not need to re-enter everything if yougo back to previous screens.During commissioning, changed parameters are stored in the MicroFlex’s volatile memory. Forthis reason, the Commissioning Wizard will occasionally prompt you to save the parameters.Selecting Yes will cause the parameters to be saved in the MicroFlex’s non-volatile flashmemory, to be retained when power is removed. If you select No, you must remember to usethe Save Drive Parameters function before removing power from the MicroFlex; this function isavailable on the Tools menu, or by clicking the button on the Mode toolbar. Savingparameters into flash memory will cause the MicroFlex to be reset. |
