Following Error Following Error This is the maximum permissible difference between the commanded position of an axis and its actual position If no following error is set 0000 the controller will not look for any following error When a following error is set the bigger the value the bigger the following error tolerated If the following error is bigger than the value set the controller will trip out and a message on screen will be shown Maximum value is 9999 No of active axis This value is normally set to 1 for a single motor system On larger machines where 2 motors are used this would be set to 2 Invert Direction Depending on how the motor is mounted a situation could arise where the stop is moving in the wrong direction however it is under control and stable Setting this from 0 to a 1 will reverse the direction of the motor Motor Activation Delay On AC systems and some DC systems this value is set to allow a short delay for the drive to power up before motion is enabled In some cases if the drive is enabled and the voltage is low the position desired will not be achieved and a larger command output given Once the voltage has stabilised the motor could then jump causing erratic control during start up This is set in milliseconds ms and a maximum of 2000 can be set Software Version 3 3b 35 of 44 ee Options Menu From the Installation Menu select Options and the following screen will appear Option
3. Calibration Menu 5i Inside the Calibration menu is stored all the data the controller needs to make accurate movements between the machine limits A description of each setting follows below Ball Screw Lead mm This setting varies depending on the machine and indicates how much the backgauge moves in one revolution of the Leadscrew or ballscrew Gear Ratio TRM supplies various types of gear ratio 4 8 1 or 3 1 etc verify what gear ratio you have ordered and enter the value here To calculate this it is the number of teeth on the large pulley divided by the number of teeth on the small pulley Maximum Cut The Maximum cut represents the maximum distance in millimetres between the knife and the front of the backgauge when the home sensor is detecting the backgauge The value set here is used by the controller to ensure that the operator Software Version 3 3b 27 of 44 sets movements within the system boundaries Please note that if the value is set to zero the system will not test the data entered by the operator The controller will not allow the operator to enter position data greater than the Maximum length In order to measure the maximum distance between the knife and the front of the backgauge once all the settings in the technical menu has been set up press the F key below the only icon shown on the Calibration menu The back gauge should start moving backwards in search for the home sensor and will

5. and Encoder Where DAC represents the current DAC output and Encoder represents the current encoder position the controller will attempt to position all axis at zero Note that the value for Gain is 0 and Encoder is 0 at this point as power has not been enabled Filter A x Filter A parameter represents the primary digital filter where the higher the value the lower the filtering frequency for example a high speed motor normally requires a filter A setting of approximately 210 a slower DC motor would require a setting of approximately 250 Note this parameter has a maximum setting of 255 Software Version 3 3b 33 of 44 Filter B x The Filter B parameter represents the secondary digital filter it tends to deal with high frequency isolation in the motor Like the Filter A parameter it is suggested that this is set with the gain relatively low and that the Filter A parameter is set roughly to the correct value then the Filter B parameter can be adjusted Typical values are around 64 Igain Ilim These settings are designed to correct the positioning error when the motor is stationary IMPORTANT Once the system is stable and has been thoroughly tested it is recommended that the end user write the values down and store them in a safe place in case they need to be reloaded in the future or use the Backup Environment in the memory menu The Integral value is shown at the bottom of the screen and becomes live when t
