Operating Instructions COMPAX-M / -SConfiguration when supplied728.2.2 Configuration when suppliedWhen supplied, COMPAX is not configured. Parameter P149 is set to "0":P149="0": COMPAX is not configured and switches to OFF mode when switchedon (24V DC and operating voltage) (motor switched off). In addition tothis, when switched on, all parameters (apart from bus settings P194,P195, P196 and P250) are set to their default values.P149="1": COMPAX is configured and once switched on (24V DC and operatingvoltage) tries to engage the motor.If you are configuring using ServoManager, P149 is automatically set to "1"once ServoManager has executed successful configuration.To operate the COMPAX controller design concept, you must have a basic level oftechnical control knowledge. COMPAX calculates the internal system andcontroller parameters required using simple, application-specific values, which aregenerally accessible.A strong controller design obviates the need for tedious controller optimization.This configuration provides you with a stable controller.If the control process is unstable because COMPAX has been incorrectlyconfigured, you can switch on COMPAX so that the drive remains switched offeven with power on. To do this, when switching on COMPAX simultaneously pressthe "-" key. The following will then happen:♦ the drive is switched off.♦ the digital outputs O1...O6 are set to "0".♦ when the PLC data interface is switched on: O7=1, O8, O11=0♦ the password protected functions are enabled.Once you have correctly configured COMPAX or you have corrected the relevantparameters, you can engage the drive and outputs again using the command"OUTPUT O0 = 0".(Function not available with the COMPAX 1000SL)8.2.3 Configuration processBefore you configure COMPAX or modify the configuration, the drive mustbe switched off e.g. using the command OUTPUT O0=1 or 2 (see Page 98).The COMPAX configuration is carried out using parameters as follows:♦ select operating mode.♦ specify units for the travel data.♦ select motor from the motor list or configure an external motor.♦ select ramp shape.♦ define direction.♦ use the design data to specify the drive type.♦ define the reference system.Controllerdesign conceptPower on withmotor switchedoffSwitching offthe driveModifyingparameters
