Introduction
1 Introduction
The PositionServo line of advanced general purpose servo drives utilizes the latest
technology in power semiconductors and packaging. The PositionServo uses Field
Oriented control to enable high quality motion.
The PositionServo is available in four mains (input power) configurations:
1. 400/480V (nominal) three phase input. An external input mains (line) filter is
available. Actual voltage can range from 320 - 528 VAC.
2. 120/240V (nominal) Single Phase input with integrated input mains (line)
filter, Actual input voltage can range from 80VAC to 264VAC. The maximum
output voltage is approximately equal to the input voltage.
3. 120V or 240V (nominal) Single or Three Phase input. Actual input voltage
can range from 80VAC to 264VAC. The maximum output voltage is
approximately equal to the input voltage. An external input mains (line) filter
is available.
4. 120V or 240V (nominal) single phase input. When wired for Doubler mode
(L1-N), the input is for 120V nominal only and can range from 45VAC to 132
VAC and the maximum output voltage is double the input voltage. When
wired to terminals L1-L2/N, the input can range from 80 VAC to 264 VAC and
the maximum output voltage is equal to the input voltage.
The PositionServo drive can operate in one of three mode settings, torque (current),
velocity, or position (step & direction or master encoder). The drive’s command or
reference signal can come from one of three sources. The first is an external reference.
An external reference can be an analog input signal, a step and direction input or an
input from a master encoder. The second reference is an internal reference. An internal
reference is when the commanded move is derived from the drive’s user program.
The third reference is when the commanded move is done via a host device over a
communications network. This Host device can be an external motion controller, PLC,
HMI or PC. The communication network can be RS485 (Point-to-Point or Modbus RTU),
Ethernet (using MotionView DLL’s), Modbus over TCP/IP, or CANopen (DS301).
Depending on the primary feedback, there are two types of drives: the Model 940
PositionServo encoder-based drive which accepts an incremental encoder with Hall
channel inputs and the Model 941 PositionServo resolver-based drive which accepts
resolver inputs. The feedback signal is brought back to the P4 connector on the drive.
This connector will be a 15 pin D-sub for the encoder version and a 9 pin D-sub for the
resolver version. A second encoder can be used in position and velocity modes.
The MotionView software is the setup and management tool for PositionServo drives.
All parameters can be set and monitored via this user-friendly tool. It has a real-time
oscilloscope tool for analysis and optimum tuning. The users program written with
SimpleMotion Programming Language (SML) can be utilized to command motion and
handle the drive’s inputs/outputs (I/O). The programming language is designed to be
very intuitive and easy to implement. For programming details, refer to the PositionServo
Programming Manual. All PositionServo related manuals can be downloaded from the
Technical Library on the AC Tech website (http://www.lenze-actech.com).
On each PositionServo drive, there is an Electronic Programming Module (EPM), which
stores all drive setup and tuning information. This module can be removed from the drive
and reinstalled into another drive, making the field replacement of the drive extremely
easy. This also makes it easy to duplicate the settings for several drives.
The PositionServo drive supports a variety of communication protocols, including Pointto-Point (PPP), Modbus RTU over RS485, Ethernet TCP/IP, Modbus over TCP/IP and
CANopen (DS301).

3.1 Wiring
DANGER!
Hazard of electrical shock! Circuit potentials are up to 480 VAC above
earth ground. Avoid direct contact with the printed circuit board or
with circuit elements to prevent the risk of serious injury or fatality.
Disconnect incoming power and wait 60 seconds before servicing the
drive. Capacitors retain charge after power is removed.
WARNING!
Leakage current may exceed 3.5mA AC. Minimum size of the protective
earth conductor shall comply with local safety regulations for high
leakage current equipment.
STOP!
Under no circumstances should power and control wiring be bundled
together. Induced voltage can cause unpredictable behavior in any
electronic device, including motor controls.
Refer to section 4.1.1 for power wiring specifications.
3.2 Shielding and Grounding
3.2.1 General Guidelines
Lenze recommends the use of single-point grounding (SPG) for panel-mounted controls.
Serial grounding (a “daisy chain”) is not recommended. The SPG for all enclosures
must be tied to earth ground at the same point. The system ground and equipment
grounds for all panel-mounted enclosures must be individually connected to the SPG
for that panel using 14 AWG (2.5 mm2) or larger wire.
In order to minimize EMI, the chassis must be grounded to the mounting. Use 14 AWG
(2.5 mm
be installed between the enclosure and ground terminal. To ensure maximum contact
between the terminal and enclosure, remove paint in a minimum radius of 0.25 in (6
mm) around the screw hole of the enclosure.
Lenze recommends the use of the special PositionServo drive cables provided by
Lenze. If you specify cables other than those provided by Lenze, please make certain
all cables are shielded and properly grounded.
It may be necessary to earth ground the shielded cable. Ground the shield at both the
drive end and at the motor end.
If the PositionServo drive continues to pick up noise after grounding the shield, it may
be necessary to add an AC line filtering device and/or an output filter (between the drive
and servo motor).

3.2.2 EMI Protection
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is an important concern for users of digital
servo control systems. EMI will cause control systems to behave in unexpected and
sometimes dangerous ways. Therefore, reducing EMI is of primary concern not only
for servo control manufacturers such as Lenze, but the user as well. Proper shielding,
grounding and installation practices are critical to EMI reduction.

3.2.3 Enclosure
The panel in which the PositionServo is mounted must be made of metal, and must be
grounded using the SPG method outlined in section 3.2.1.
Proper wire routing inside the panel is critical; power and logic leads must be routed in
different avenues inside the panel.
You must ensure that the panel contains sufficient clearance around the drive. Refer to
section 2.9 for the recommended cooling air clearance.

S94P01G
Installation
3.3 Line Filtering
In addition to EMI/RFI safeguards inherent in the PositionServo design, external filtering
may be required. High frequency energy can be coupled between the circuits via
radiation or conduction. The AC power wiring is one of the most important paths for both
types of coupling mechanisms. In order to comply with IEC61800-3:2004, an appropriate
filter must be installed within 20cm of the drive power inputs.
Line filters should be placed inside the shielded panel. Connect the filter to the
incoming power lines immediately after the safety mains and before any critical control
components. Wire the AC line filter as close as possible to the PositionServo drive.
NOTE
The ground connection from the filter must be wired to solid earth
ground, not machine ground.
If the end-user is using a CE-approved motor, the AC filter combined with the
recommended motor and encoder cables, is all that is necessary to meet the EMC
directives listed herein. The end user must use the compatible filter to comply with CE
specifications. The OEM may choose to provide alternative filtering that encompasses
the PositionServo drive and other electronics within the same panel. The OEM has this
liberty because CE requirements are for the total system.
3.4 Heat Sinking
The PositionServo drive contains sufficient heat sinking within the specified ambient
operating temperature in its basic configuration. There is no need for additional heat
sinking. However, the user must ensure that there is sufficient clearance for proper air
circulation. As a minimum, an air gap of 25 mm above and below the drive is necessary.
3.5 Line (Mains) Fusing
External line fuses must be installed on all PositionServo drives. Connect the external
line fuse in series with the AC line voltage input. Use fast-acting fuses rated for 250
VAC or 600 VAC (depending on model), and approximately 200% of the maximum RMS
phase current. Refer to section 2.3 for fuse recommendations.

Interface
4 Interface
The standard PositionServo drive contains seven connectors: four quick-connect
terminal blocks, one SCSI connector and one subminiature type “D” connector. These
connectors provide communications from a PLC or host controller, power to the drive,
and feedback from the motor. Prefabricated cable assemblies may be purchased from
Lenze to facilitate wiring the drive, motor and host computer. Contact your Lenze Sales
Representative for assistance.
As this manual makes reference to specific pins on specific connectors, we will use the
convention PX.Y where X is the connector number and Y is the pin number.
4.1 External Connectors
4.1.1 P1 & P7 - Input Power and Output Power Connections
P1 is a 3 or 4-pin quick-connect terminal block used for input (mains) power. P7 is a
6-pin quick-connect terminal block used for output power to the motor. P7 also has a
thermistor (PTC) input for motor over-temperature protection. The tables in this section
identify the connector pin assignments.
DANGER!
Hazard of electrical shock! Circuit potentials are up to 480 VAC above
earth ground. Avoid direct contact with the printed circuit board or with
circuit elements to prevent the risk of serious injury or fatality. Disconnect
incoming power and wait 60 seconds before servicing drive. Capacitors
retain charge after power is removed.
STOP!
DO NOT connect incoming power to the output motor terminals (U, V,
W)! Severe damage to the PositionServo will result.
Check phase wiring (U, V, W) and thermal input (T1, T2) before powering
up drive. If miswired, severe damage to the PositionServo will result.
All conductors must be enclosed in one shield with a jacket around them. The shield on
the drive end of the motor power cable should be terminated to the conductive machine
panel using screen clamps as shown in section 3.2. The other end should be properly
terminated at the motor shield. Feedback cable shields should be terminated in a like
manner. Lenze recommends Lenze cables for both the motor power and feedback.
These are available with appropriate connectors and in various lengths. Contact your
Lenze representative for assistance.

4.1.4 P4 - Motor Feedback / Second Loop Encoder Input
For encoder-based 940 drives, P4 is a 15-pin DB connector that contains connections
for an incremental encoder with Hall emulation tracks or Hall sensors. For synchronous
servo motors, Hall sensors or Hall emulation tracks are necessary for commutation. If
an asynchronous servo motor is used, it is not necessary to connect Hall sensor inputs.
Encoder inputs on P4 have 26LS32 or compatible differential receivers for increased
noise immunity. Inputs have all necessary filtering and line balancing components so no
external noise suppression networks are needed.
For resolver-based 941 drives, P4 is a 9-pin DB connector for connecting resolver
feedback and thermal sensor. For pin assignments, refer to the table P4B. The resolver
feedback is translated to 65,536 counts per revolution.
All conductors must be enclosed in one shield with a jacket around them. Lenze
recommends that each and every pair (for example, EA+ and EA-) be twisted. In order
to satisfy CE requirements, use of an OEM cable is recommended.
The PositionServo buffers encoder/resolver feedback from P4 to P3. For example,
when encoder feedback is used, channel A on P4, is Buffered Encoder Output channel
A on P3. For more information on this refer to section 4.2.2 “Buffered Encoder Outputs”.
STOP!
Use only +5 VDC encoders. Do not connect any other type of encoder to the
PositionServo reference voltage terminals. When using a front-end controller, it is
critical that the +5 VDC supply on the front-end controller NOT be connected to the
PositionServo’s +5 VDC supply, as this will result in damage to the PositionServo.
NOTE
• The PositionServo encoder inputs are designed to accept differentially
driven hall signals. Single-ended or open-collector type hall signals are also
acceptable by connecting “HA+”, “HB+”, “HC+” and leaving “HA-,HB-,HC-”
inputs unconnected. The user does not need to supply pull-up resistors for
open-collector hall sensors. The necessary pull-up circuits are already
provided.
• Encoder connections (A, B and Z) must be full differential. The PositionServo
does not support single-ended or open-collector type outputs from the encoder.
• An encoder resolution of 2000 PPR (pre-quadrature) or higher is recommended.
Using P4 as second encoder input for dual-loop operation:
P4 can be used as a second loop encoder input in situations where the motor is
equipped with a resolver as the primary feedback. If such a motor is used, the drive
must have a resolver feedback option module installed. A second encoder can then be
connected to the A and B lines of the P4 connector for dual loop operation. Refer to
section 6.4 (“Dual-loop Feedback Operation”) for details.
P5 is a 2-pin quick-connect terminal block that can be used with an external 24 VDC
(500mA) power supply to provide “Keep Alive” capability: during a power loss, the logic
and communications will remain active. Applied voltage must be greater than 20VDC.

4.1.6 P6 - Braking Resistor and DC Bus
P6 is a 5-pin quick-connect terminal block that can be used with an external braking
resistor (the PositionServo has the regen circuitry built-in). The Brake Resistor connects

4.1.7 Connector and Wiring Notes
Note 1 - Buffered Encoder Inputs
Each of the encoder output pins on P3 is a buffered pass-through of the corresponding
input signal on P4, Refer to section 4.2.2 “Buffered Encoder Outputs”. This can be
either from a motor mounted encoder/resolver, (primary feedback), or from an auxiliary
encoder/resolver when an optional feedback module is used.
Via software, these pins can be re-programmed to be a buffered pass through of the
signals from a feedback option card. This can be either the second encoder option
module (E94ZAENC1) or an encoder emulation of the resolver connected to the resolver
option module (E94ZARSV2 or E94ZARSV3).
Note 2 - Master Encoder Inputs or Step/Direction Inputs
An external pulse train signal (“step”) supplied by an external device, such as a PLC or
stepper indexer, can control the speed and position of the servomotor. The speed of the
motor is controlled by the frequency of the “step” signal, while the number of pulses that
are supplied to the PositionServo determines the position of the servomotor. Direction
input controls direction of the motion.
Note 3 - Digital Input A3
For the drive to function, an ENABLE input must be wired to the drive, and should be
connected to IN_A3, (P3.29), which is, by the default the ENABLE input on the drive.
This triggering mechanism can either be a switch or an input from an external PLC or
motion controller. The input can be wired either sinking or sourcing (section 4.2.3). The
Enable circuit will accept 5-24V control voltage.

4.1.8 P11 - Resolver Interface Module (option)
PositionServo drives can operate motors equipped with resolvers from either the (P4)
connection, for a resolver-based (E94R) drive, or from the Resolver option module for
an encoder-based (E94P) drive. The option module connections are made to a 9 pin
D-shell female connector (P11) on the resolver option module E94ZARSV2 (scalable)
or E94ZARSV3 (standard). When the motor profile is loaded from the motor database
or from a custom motor file, the drive will select the primary feedback source based on
the motor data entry.
The E94ZARSV3 has a fixed resolution of 1024 PPR prequadrature or 4096
postquadrature. The E94ZARSV2 has a selectable set of 15 resolutions. The resolution
refers to the pulses per revolution (PPR) of the Buffered Encoder Outputs (P3-7 to P3-
12) if the Encoder Repeat Source is set as “Optional Feedback Input” in MotionView.
When using the E94ZARSV2, the default resolution is 1024 PPR prequadrature.
Depending on the hardware/software revision of the E94ZARSV2 module, the available
PPRs are different. Refer to the table below for the Dip Switch settings for SW1 and the
different resolutions.

4.1.9 P12 - Second Encoder Interface Module (option)
PositionServo drives can support a second incremental encoder interface for dual-loop
systems. Regardless of whether the motor’s primary feedback type is an encoder or
resolver, a 2nd Encoder Option Module, E94ZAENC1, can be installed at Option Bay
2, (P12). Once installed the optional feedback card can be selected as the primary
encoder repeat source from the “Parameter” folder in MotionView. The 2nd Encoder
Option Module includes a 9 pin D-shell male connector. When using a Lenze motor
with encoder feedback and a Lenze encoder cable, the pins are already configured for

4.2.2 Buffered Encoder Output (P3, pins 7-12)
There are many applications where it is desired to close the feedback loop to an
external device. This feature is built into the PositionServo drive and is referred to as
the “Buffered Encoder Output”. If a motor with encoder feedback is being used, the A+,
A-, B+, B-, Z+ and Z- signals are directly passed through the drive through pins 7-12
with no delays, up to a speed of 25MHz. If a motor with resolver feedback is being used
a simulated encoder feedback is transmitted. The default resolution of the simulated
encoder is 1024 pulses per revolution, pre-quad. If a different resolution is desired refer
to section 5.3.22 “Resolver Tracks”.
4.2.3 Digital Outputs
There are a total of five digital outputs (“OUT1” - “OUT4” and “RDY”) available on the
PositionServo drive. These outputs are accessible from the P3 connector. Outputs are
open collector type that are fully isolated from the rest of the drive circuits. See the
following figure for the electrical diagram. These outputs can be either used via the
drives internal User Program or they can be configured as Special Purpose outputs.
When used as Special Purpose, each output (OUT1-OUT4) can be assigned to one of
the following functions:
• Not assigned
• Zero speed
• In-speed window
• Current limit
• Run-time fault
• Ready
• Brake (motor brake release)
Please note that if you assign an output as a Special Purpose Output then that output
can not be utilized by the User Program. The “RDY” Output has a fixed function,
“ENABLE”, which will become active when the drive is enabled and the output power
transistors becomes energized.
Digital outputs electrical characteristics
Circuit type Isolated Open Collector
Digital outputs load capability 15mA
Digital outputs Collector-Emitter max voltage 30V
The inputs on drive can be wired as either sinking (NPN) or sourcing (PNP),
as illustrated in wiring examples mb101 and mb102.
The PositionServo Drive has 12 optically isolated inputs. These inputs are compatible
with a 5 - 24V voltage source. No additional series resistors are needed for circuit
operation. The 12 inputs are segmented into three groups of 4, Inputs A1 - A4, Inputs
B1 - B4, and Inputs C1 - C4. Each group, (A, B and C) have their own corresponding
shared common, (ACOM, BCOM and CCOM). Each group or bank can be wired as
sinking or sourcing. Refer to wiring examples mb103 and mb104. All inputs have a
separate software adjustable de-bounce time. Some of the inputs can be set up as
Special Purpose Inputs. For example inputs A1 and A2 can be configured as limit inputs,
input A3 is always set up as an Enable input and input C3 can be used as a registration
input. Refer to the PositionServo Programming Manual (PM94P01) for more detail.
For the registration input (C3), the registration time is 3µs for an encoder and 7µs for
a resolver.

4.3 Analog I/O Details
4.3.1 Analog Reference Input
AIN1+, AIN1- (P3.24 and P3.25)
The analog reference input can accept up to a ±10V analog signal across AIN1+ and
AIN1-. The maximum limit with respect to analog common (ACOM) on each input is
±18VDC. The analog signal will be converted to a digital value with 16 bit resolution (15
bit plus sign). This input is used to control speed or torque of the motor in velocity or
torque mode. The total reference voltage as seen by the drive is the voltage difference
between AIN1+ and AIN1-. If used in single-ended mode, one of the inputs must
be connected to a voltage source while the other one must be connected to Analog
Common (ACOM). If used in differential mode, the voltage source is connected across
AIN1+ and AIN1- and the driving circuit common (if any) needs to be connected to the
drive Analog Common (ACOM) terminal. Refer to wiring examples mb105 and mb106.

which can represent the following motor data:
• Not Assigned• Phase R Current• Iq Current
• RMS Phase Current• Phase S Current• Id Current
• Peak Phase Current• Phase T Current
• Motor Velocity
Motor phase U, V and W corresponds to R, S and T respectively.
MotionView Setup program can be used to select the signal source for the analog
output as well as its scaling.
If the output function is set to “Not Assigned” then the output can be controlled directly
from user’s program. Refer to the PositionServo Programming Manual (PM94P01) for
programming details.
STOP!
Upon application of power to the PositionServo, the Analog Output supplies
-10VDC until bootup is complete. Once bootup is complete, the Analog Output will
supply the commanded voltage.
4.4 Communication Interfaces
4.4.1 Ethernet Interface (standard)
Programming and diagnostics of the drive are performed over the standard Ethernet
communication port. The Drives IP address can be displayed from the drive’s front
panel display. The last octet of the drive’s IP address can be set from the drive’s display.
Changes do not take affect until after a power cycle. The interface supports both 100
BASE-TX as well as 10 BASE-T. This configuration allows the user to monitor and
program multiple drives from MotionView. Refer to section 5.4.1 for PC configuration
information.
4.4.2 RS485 Interface (option)
PositionServo drives can be equipped with an RS485 communication interface option
module (E94ZARS41) which is optically isolated from the rest of the drive’s circuitry.
This option module can be used for two functions: drive programming and diagnostics
using MotionView from a PC (with RS485 port) or as a Modbus RTU slave. The
PositionServo drives support 5 different baud rates, ranging from 9600 to 115200.
Drives are addressable with up to 32 addresses from 0-31. The factory setting for
the baud rate is 38,400 with a node address of “1”. The drives address must be set
from the front panel display of the drive. When used with MotionView software, the
communication speed is also set from the front panel display. If used for Modbus RTU
communications, the Modbus baud rate is set as a parameter within MotionView.

communication method must be selected. The connection choice can be either “UPP
over RS485/RS232” or “Ethernet”. The “UPP over RS485/RS232” selection establishes
a RS485 connection between MotionView and the first drive on the network. Multiple
drives can then be added to the network via RS485. Each drive on the network must
have a different Node Address. When setting up communications the node address of
the target drive must be set. MotionView will then send out a communications packet
to the drives on the network, via the RS485 connection. The message, “Device with
address # not present in the network” will appear If the target node could not be found.
4.4.4 MODBUS RTU Support
As a default, the Ethernet and RS485 interfaces are configured to support MotionView
program operations. In addition, the Ethernet port can support MODBUS TCP/IP slave
protocals and the RS485 interface can be configured to support the MODBUS RTU
slave protocol. These interfaces are configured through the MotionView program
environment. When configured for MODBUS operation, the baud rate for RS485 is
set by the parameter “Modbus baud rate” in MotionView. MODBUS RTU requires 8
data bits. The MODBUS RTU slave interface protocol definitions can be found in the
MotionView help menu under “Product Manuals”.
4.4.5 CAN Interface (option)
An optional CANopen communication module (E94ZACAN1) is available for the
PositionServo drive. Installed in Option Bay 1 as P21, the CANopen module is optically
isolated from the rest of the drive’s circuitry. The 3-pin CANopen module is for HW/SW
1A10 and the 5-pin CANopen module is for HW/SW 1B10 or higher. Refer to the PS
CANopen Reference Guide (P94CAN01) for more information.
The PostionServo drive is compatible with many 3-phase AC synchronous servo motors
as well as 3-phase AC asynchronous servo motors. MotionView is equipped with a
motor database that contains over 600 motors for use with the PositionServo drive.
If the desired motor is in the database, no data to set it up is needed. Just select the
motor and click “OK”. However, if your motor is not in the database, it can still be used,
but some electrical and mechanical data must be provided to create a custom motor
profile. The auto-phasing feature of the PositionServo drive allows the user to correctly
determine the relationship between phase voltage and hall sensor signals, eliminating
the need to use a multi-channel oscilloscope.
4.5.1 Motor Connection
Motor phase U, V, W (or R, S, T) are connected to terminal P7. It is very important
that motor cable shield is connected to Earth ground terminal (PE) or the drive’s case.
The motor’s encoder/resolver feedback cable must be connected to terminal P4. If a
resolver option module is used, connect to terminal P11, and if a second encoder option
module is used, connect to terminal P12.
S94P01G

Interface
4.5.2 Motor Over-temperature Protection
If using a motor equipped with an encoder and PTC thermal sensor, the encoder
feedback cable will have flying leads exiting the P4 connector to be wired to the P7.1
(T1) and P7.2 (T2) terminals. If using a motor equipped with a Resolver and a PTC
sensor, the thermal feedback is pased directly to the drive via the resolver 9-pin D shell
connector.
Use parameter “Motor PTC cut-off resistance” (refer to section 5.3.12) to set the
resistance that corresponds to maximum motor allowed temperature. The parameter
“Motor temperature sensor” must also be set to ENABLE. If the motor doesn’t have a
PTC sensor, set this parameter to DISABLE. This input will also work with N.C. thermal
switches which have only two states; Open or Closed. In this case “Motor PTC cut-off
resistance” parameter can be set to the default value.
4.5.3 Motor Setup
Once you are connected to the PostionServo via MotionView a “Parameter Tree” will
appear in the “Parameter Tree Window”. The various parameters of the drive are shown
here as folders and files. If the “Motor” folder is selected, all motor parameters can
be viewed in the “Parameter View Window”. To view selected motor parameters or to
select a new motor click the section marked “CLICK HERE TO CHANGE”.
MotionView’s “Motor Group” folder and its contents
NOTE
If the drive is ENABLED, a new motor cannot be set. You can only set a new motor
when the drive is DISABLED.
To View selected motor parameters or to make a new motor selection:
• Click “Click here to change the motor” from the Parameter View Window (see
figure above). If just viewing the motor parameters click Cancel on the Motor
Parameters dialog box when done to dismiss the box.
• Select motor Vendor from the right list box and desired motor from the left list box.
• If you will be using a “custom” motor (not listed in our motor database) go to ”Using
a custom motor” topic in the next section.
• Finally, click the OK button to dismiss the dialog box and return to MotionView’s main
program.
NOTE
To help prevent the motor from drawing to much current and possibility overheating
it is recommended that the drives “Current Limit” be checked against the motors
“Nominal Phase Current” and set accordingly.

4.6 Using a Custom Motor
You can load a custom motor from a file or you can create a new custom motor.
• To create a custom motor click “CREATE CUSTOM” and follow the instructions in
the next section “Creating custom motor parameters”.
• To load a custom motor click “OPEN CUSTOM” button then select the motor file
and click the “OPEN“ button to select or click the “CANCEL“ button to return to the
previous dialog box.
• Click OK to load the motor data and return to the main MotionView menu or Cancel
to abandon changes. When clicking OK for a custom motor, a dialog box will
appear asking if you want to execute “Autophasing” (refer to section 4.6.2).
4.6.1 Creating Custom Motor Parameters
STOP!
Use extreme caution when entering custom parameters! Incorrect
settings may cause damage to the drive or motor! If you are unsure of
the settings, refer to the materials that were distributed with your motor,
or contact the motor manufacturer for assistance.
1. Enter custom motor data in the Motor Parameters dialog fields. Complete all
sections of dialog: Electrical, Mechanical, Feedback. Refer to section 4.6.3
for explanation of motor parameters and how to enter them.
NOTE
If unsure of the motor halls order and encoder channels A and B
relationship, leave “B leads A for CW”, “Halls order” and “inverted” fields
as they are. You can execute autophasing (refer to section 4.6.2) to set
them correctly.
2. Enter motor model and vendor in the top edit boxes. Motor ID cannot be
entered, this is set to 0 for custom motors.
3. Click “Save File” button and enter filename without extension. Default
extension .cmt will be given when you click OK on file dialog box.
NOTE
Saving the file is necessary even if the autophasing feature will be used
and some of the final parameters are not known. After autophasing is
completed the corrected motor file can be updated before loading it to
memory.
4. Click OK to exit from the Motor Parameters dialog.
5. MotionView will ask if you want to autophase your custom motor. If you
answer “No”, the motor data will be loaded immediately to the drive’s
memory. If you answer “Yes”, the motor dialog will be dismissed and
the drive will start the autophasing sequence. Refer to section 4.6.2 for
autophasing information.
6. If you answered “Yes” for autophasing, you will be returned to the same
motor selection dialog box after autophasing is complete. For motors with
incremental encoders, the fields “B leads A for CW”, “Halls order” and
“inverted” will be assigned correct values. For motors with resolvers, the
fields “Offset in degree” and “CW for positive” will be assigned correct values.
7. Click “Save File” to save the custom motor file and then click “OK” to exit the
dialog box and load the data to the drive.
S94P01G
33
Interface
4.6.2 Autophasing
The Autophasing feature determines important motor parameters when using a motor
that is not in MotionView’s database. For motors equipped with incremental encoders,
Autophasing will determine the Hall order sequence, Hall sensor polarity and encoder
channel relationship (B leads A or A leads B for CW rotation). For motors equipped
with resolvers, Autophasing will determine resolver angle offset and angle increment
direction (“CW for positive”).
To perform autophasing:
1. Complete the steps in the previous section “Setting custom motor
parameters”. If the motor file you are trying to autophase already exists,
simply load it as described under “Using a custom motor” at the beginning of
this section.
2. Make sure that the motor’s shaft is not connected to any mechanical load
and can freely rotate.
STOP!
Autophasing will energize the motor and will rotate the shaft. Make sure
that the motor’s shaft is not connected to any mechanical load and can
freely and safely rotate.
3. Make sure that the drive is not enabled.
4. It is not necessary to edit the field “Hall order” and check boxes “inverted”
and “B leads A for CW” as these values are ignored for autophasing.
5. Click OK to dismiss motor selection dialog. MotionView responds with the
question “Do you want to perform autophasing?”
6. Click OK. A safety reminder dialog appears. Verify that it is safe to run the
motor then click “Proceed” and wait until autophasing is completed.
NOTE
If there is a problem with the motor connection, hall sensor connection or resolver
connection, MotionView will respond with an error message. Problems commonly
occur with power, shield and ground terminations or when an improper cable is
used. Correct the wiring problem(s) and repeat steps 1 - 6.
If the error message repeats, exchange motor phases U and V (R and S) and
repeat. If problems persist, contact the factory.
7. If autophasing is completed with no error then MotionView will return to the
motor dialog box. For motors with incremental encoders, the parameter field
“Hall order” and the check boxes “inverted”, “B leads A for CW” will be filled
in with correct values. For resolver equipped motors, fields “Offset ” and “CW
for positive” will be correctly set.
8. Click “Save File” to save the completed motor file (you can use the same
filename as you use to save initial data in step 1) and click OK to load the
motor data to the drive.
4.6.3 Custom Motor Data Entry
A Custom Motor file is created by entering motor data into the “Motor Parameters”
dialog box. This box is divided up into the following three sections, or frames:
Electrical constants
Mechanical constants
Feedback
When creating a custom motor you must supply all parameters listed in these sections.
All entries are mandatory except the motor inertia (Jm) parameter. A value of 0 may be
entered for the motor inertia if the actual value is unknown.
34
S94P01G
Interface
4.6.3.1 Electrical constants
Motor Torque Constant (Kt)
Enter the value and select proper units from the drop-down list.
NOTE
Round the calculated result to 3 significant places.
Motor Voltage Constant (Ke)
The program expects Ke to be entered as a phase-to-phase Peak voltage. If you have
Ke as an RMS value, multiply this value by 1.414 for the correct Ke Peak value.
Phase-to-phase winding Resistance (R) in Ohms
This is also listed as the terminal resistance (Rt). The phase-to-phase winding
Resistance (R) will typically be between 0.05 and 200 Ohms.
Phase-to-phase winding Inductance (L)
This must be set in millihenries (mH). The phase-to-phase winding Inductance (L) will
typically be between 0.1 and 200.0 mH.
NOTE
If the units for the phase-to-phase winding Inductance (L) are given in
micro-henries (µH), then divide by 1000 to get mH.
Nominal phase current (RMS Amps)
Nominal continuous phase current rating (In) in Amps RMS. Do not use the peak current
rating.
NOTE
Sometimes the phase current rating will not be given. The equation
below may be used to obtain the nominal continuous phase-to-phase
winding current from other variables.
In= Continuous Stall Torque / Motor Torque Constant (Kt)
The same force x distance units must be used in the numerator and denominator in the
equation above. If torque (T) is expressed in units of pound-inches (lb-in), then Kt must
be expressed in pound-inches per Amp (lb-in/A). Likewise, if T is expressed in units of
Newton-meters (N-m), then units for Kt must be expressed in Newton-meters per Amp
(N-m/A).
Example:
Suppose that the nominal continuous phase to phase winding current (In) is not
given. Instead, we look up and obtain the following:
Continuous stall torque T = 3.0 lb-in
Motor torque constant Kt = 0.69 lb-in/A
Dividing, we obtain:
In = 3.0 lb-in / 0.69 lb-in/A =4.35 (A)
Our entry for (In) would be 4.35.
Note that the torque (lb-in) units are cancelled in the equation above leaving just
Amps (A). We would have to use another conversion factor if the numerator and
denominator had different force x distance units.
S94P01G
35
Interface
Nominal Bus Voltage (Vbus)
The Nominal Bus Voltage can be calculated by multiplying the Nominal AC mains
voltage supplied by 1.41. When using a model with the suffix “S1N” where the mains
are wired to the “Doubler” connection, the Nominal Bus Voltage will be doubled.
Example:
If the mains voltage is 230VAC, Vbus = 230 x 1.41 = 325V
This value is the initial voltage for the drive and the correct voltage will be
calculated dynamically depending on the drive’s incoming voltage value.
Rotor Moment of Inertia (Jm)
From motor manufacturer or nameplate.
NOTE
Round the calculated result to 3 significant places.
Maximum Motor Speed in RPM
This is also listed as “Speed @ Vt” (motor speed at the terminal voltage rating). The
maximum motor speed will typically be a round even value between 1000 - 6000 RPM.
Number of Poles
This is a positive integer number that represents the number of motor poles, normally
2, 4, 6 or 8.
4.6.3.2 For Incremental Encoder - Equipped Motors Only
Encoder Line Count
The Encoders for servomotors normally have Line Counts of 1000, 1024, 2000, 2048,
4000, or 4096. The Encoder Line Count must be a positive integer and must be prequadrature.
Index pulse offset. Enter 0 (zero)
Index marker pulse position. This field is reserved for backward compatibility. All
PositionServo drives determine actual marker pulse position automatically.
Halls Order
Each hall signal is in phase with one of the three phase-phase voltages from the motor
windings. Hall order number defines which hall sensor matches which phase-phase
voltage. Motor phases are usually called R-S-T or U-V-W or A-B-C. Phase-Phase
voltages are called Vrs, Vst, Vtr. Halls are usually called HALL-A, HALL-B, HALL-C or
just Halls 1, 2, 3. A motor’s phase diagram is supplied by motor vendor and usually can
be found in the motor data sheet or by making a request to the motor manufacturer. A
sample phase diagram is illustrated in Figure S912.
36
S912
S94P01G
Interface
The Halls Order is obtained as follows:
1. Look at the “Vrs” Output Voltage and determine the Hall Voltage that is lined
up with (or in phase with) this voltage. To determine which Hall Voltage is in
phase with the Vrs Output Voltage draw vertical lines at those points where
it crosses the horizontal line (zero). The dashed lines at the zero crossings
(above) indicate that Hall B output is lined up with (and in phase with) the Vrs
Output Voltage.
2. Look at the “Vst” Output Voltage. Determine which Hall Voltage is in phase
with this Voltage. Per Figure S912, the Hall C output is in phase with the Vst
Output Voltage.
3. Look at the “Vtr” Output Voltage. Determine which Hall Voltage is in phase
with this Voltage. Per Figure S912, the Hall A output is in phase with the Vtr
Output Voltage.
NOTE
If hall sensors are in phase with the corresponding phase voltage
but are inverted 180 degrees (hall sensor waveform edge aligns with
the phase-phase voltage waveform but the positive hall sensor cycle
matches the negative phase-phase waveform or visa-versa), you must
check the “Inverted” check box.
4. The phases that correspond to the Vrs, Vst and Vtr voltages are Hall B then
Hall C then Hall A or Halls number 2 then 3 then 1. Referring to the following
table, we find that 2-3-1 sequence is Halls Order number 3. We would then
enter 3 for the Halls Order field in the motor dialog box.
Hall Order Numbers for Different Hall Sequences
Halls OrderHall Sequence
01-2-3
11-3-2
22-1-3
32-3-1
43-1-2
53-2-1
NOTE
Each Hall Voltage is in phase with one and only one Output Voltage.
B leads A for CW
This is the encoder phase relationship for CW/CCW shaft rotation. When you obtain the
diagram for your motor phasing similar to shown above, it’s assumed by the software
that the motor shaft rotates CW when looking at the mounting face of the motor. For that
rotation Encoder phase A must lead phase B. If it does leave the check box unchecked.
Otherwise (if B leads A), check B leads A in the CW box.
NOTE
Lenze convention references the shaft direction of rotation from the
front (shaft end) of the motor. Some manufacturer’s timing diagrams
are CW when viewed from the “rear” of the motor.

Interface
4.6.3.3 For Resolver Equipped Motors Only
If parameter “Resolver” is checked, following parameters appear on the form:
Offset in degree (electrical)
This parameter represents offset between resolver’s “0 degree” and motor’s windings
“0 degree”.
CW for positive
This parameter sets the direction for positive angle increment.
“Offset in degree” and “CW for positive” will be set during Auto-Phasing of the motor.
4.6.3.4 For Asynchronous Servo Motors Only
Four additional parameters need to be defined for asynchronous motors:
Power Factor Cos Phi (cos f)
The power factor is defined as the ratio of the active (true or real) power to apparent
power. The power factor range is from 0 to1.
Base Frequency in Hz
The motor base frequency defines the output frequency, when operating at rated
voltage, rated current, rated speed, and rated temperature.
Velocity Nominal in RPM
Also called rated velocity or speed, velocity nominal is obtained when the motor is
operated at the base frequency, rated current, rated voltage, and rated temperature.
Velocity Max in RPM
This is the maximum speed of the motor. The maximum velocity is usually limited by
mechanical construction.

S94P01G
Parameters
5 Parameters
The PositionServo drive is configured through an RS485 or Ethernet interface. The
drive has many programmable features and parameters accessible via a universal
software called MotionView. Refer to the MotionView Manual for details on how to
make a connection to the drive and change parameter values. This chapter covers the
PositionServo’s programmable features and parameters in the order they appear in
the Parameter Tree of MotionView. Programmable parameters are divided into groups.
Each group holds one or more user adjustable parameters.
All drives can execute a User Program in parallel with motion. Motion can be specified
by variety of sources and in three different modes: Torque, Velocity and Position.
In Torque and Velocity mode Reference can be taken from Analog Input AIN1 or from
the User Program by setting a particular variable (digital reference). In Position mode,
the reference could be taken from MA/MB master encoder/step and directions inputs
(available in terminal P3) or from trajectory generator. Access to the trajectory generator
is provided through the User Program’s motion statements, MOVEx and MDV. Refer to
the PositionServo Programming Manual for details on programming.
Whether the reference comes from an external device, (AIN1 or MA/MB) or from the
drives internal variables (digital reference and trajectory generator) will depend on the
parameter settings. Refer to “Parameters” group in MotionView.
5.1 Parameter Storage and EPM Operation
5.1.1 Parameter Storage
All settable parameters are stored in the drive’s internal non-volatile memory. Parameters
are saved automatically when they are changed and are copied to the EPM memory
module located on the drive’s front panel. In the unlikely event of drive failure, the EPM
can be removed and inserted into the replacement drive, thus making an exact copy
of the drive being replaced. This shortens down time by eliminating the configuration
procedure. The EPM can also be used for replication of the drive’s settings.
5.1.2 EPM Operation
When the drive is powered up it first checks for a white EPM in the EPM Port. If the EPM
Port is empty, no further operation is possible until a white EPM is installed into the EPM
Port. The drive will display “-EP-” until an EPM is inserted. Never install or remove the
EPM module while the drive is powered.
If a different color EPM is inserted the drive may appear to function however, some
operations will not be correct and the drive may hang. The white EPM is the only
acceptable EPM for the PositionServo drive. If a white EPM is detected, the drive
compares data in the EPM to that in its internal memory. In order for the drive to operate,
the contents of the drive’s memory and EPM must be the same. If “FEP?” is displayed
press the enter button to load the EPM’s data to the drive. Wait. The drive will display
“BUSY” during loading and will return to normal display once the update is completed.
STOP!
If the EPM contains any data from an inverter drive, that data will be overwritten during this procedure.
5.1.3 EPM Fault
If the EPM fails during operation or the EPM is removed from the EPM Port, the drive
will generate a fault and will be disabled (if enabled). The fault is logged to the drives
fault history. Further operation is not possible until the EPM is replaced (inserted) and
the drive’s power is cycled. The fault log on the display shows “
S94P01G
F_EP” fault.

Parameters
5.2 Motor Group
The motor group shows the data for the currently selected motor. Refer to section 4.5
for details on how to select another motor from the motor database or to configure a
custom motor.
5.3 Parameters
5.3.1 Drive Operating Modes
The PositionServo has 3 operating mode selections: Torque, Velocity and Position.
For Torque and Velocity modes the drive will accept an analog input voltage on the
AIN1+ and AIN1- pins of P3 (refer to section 4.3.1). This voltage is used to provide a
torque or speed reference.
For Position mode the drive will accept step and direction logic signals or a quadrature
pulse train on pins P3.1- P3.4.
5.3.1.1 Torque Mode
In torque mode, the servo control provides a current output proportional to the analog
input signal at input AIN1, if parameter “Reference” is set to “External”. Otherwise the
reference is taken from the drive’s internal variable, IREF. (Refer to the PositionServo
Programming Manual for details). For analog reference “Set Current”, (current the drive
will try to provide), is calculated using the following formula:
Set Current(A) = Vinput(Volt) X Iscale (A/Volt)
where: Vinput is the voltage at analog input
Iscale is the current scale factor (input sensitivity) set by the Analog input
(Current Scale) parameter (section 5.3.5).
5.3.1.2 Velocity Mode
In velocity mode, the servo controller regulates motor shaft speed (velocity) proportional
to the analog input voltage at input AIN1, if parameter “Reference” is set to “External”.
Otherwise the reference is taken from the drive’s internal variable, IREF. (Refer to the
PositionServo Programming Manual for details). For analog reference, Target speed
(set speed) is calculated using the following formula:
Set Velocity (RPM) = Vinput (Volt) x Vscale (RPM/Volt)
where: Vinput is the voltage at analog input (AIN1+ and AIN1-)
Vscale is the velocity scale factor (input sensitivity) set by the Analog input
(Velocity scale) parameter (section 5.3.6).
5.3.1.3 Position Mode
In this mode the drive reference is a pulse-train applied to P3.1-4 terminals, if the
parameter “Reference” is set to “External”. Otherwise the reference is taken from the
drive’s internal variables. (Refer to the PositionServo Programming Manual for details).
P3.1-4 inputs can be configured for two types of signals: step and direction and Master
encoder quadrature signal. Refer to section 4.2.1 for details on these inputs connections.
Refer to section 6.3 for details about positioning and gearing.
When the Reference is set to Internal, the drives reference position, (theoretical or
Target position), is generated by trajectory generator. Access to the trajectory generator
is provided by motion statements, MOVEx and MDV, from the User Program.

S94P01G
Parameters
5.3.2 Drive PWM frequency
This parameter sets the PWM carrier frequency. Frequency can be changed only when
the drive is disabled. Maximum overload current is 300% of the drive rated current when
the carrier is set to 8kHz. It is limited to 250% at 16kHz.
5.3.3 Current Limit
The CURRENT LIMIT setting determines the nominal currents, in amps RMS per phase,
which output to the motor phases. To prevent the motor from overloading, this parameter
is usually set equal to the motor nominal (or rated) phase current. If MotionView (6.04)
or higher is used, the Current Limit is set equal to the nominal motor phase current by
default when a motor model is selected. To modify this parameter, refer to section 5.3.23.
5.3.4 Peak Current Limit (8 kHz and 16 kHz)
Peak Current Limit sets the motor RMS phase current that is allowed for up to 2
seconds. After this two second limit, the drive output current to motor will be reduced
to the value set by the Current Limit parameter. When the motor current drops below
nominal current for two seconds, the drive will automatically re-enable the peak current
level. This technique allows for high peak torque on demanding fast moves and fast
start/stop operations with high regulation bandwidth. If 8 kHz is used for Drive PWM
frequency, use the parameter 8 kHz Peak Current Limit, otherwise, use 16 kHz Peak
Current Limit.
If MotionView (6.04) or higher is used, the Peak Current Limit is set equal to 2.5 times
the nominal motor phase current by default when a motor model is selected. To prevent
motor from overloading, the Peak Current Limit shall be set no higher than the maximum
motor current. Otherwise, the motor may be damaged due to overheating. To modify
this parameter, refer to section 5.3.23.
5.3.5 Analog Input Scale (current scale)
This parameter sets the analog input sensitivity for current reference used when the
drive operates in torque mode. Units for this parameter are A/Volt. To calculate this
value use the following formula:
Iscale = Imax / Vin max
Imax maximum desired output current (motor phase current RMS)
Vin max max voltage fed to analog input at Imax
Example:Imax = 5A (phase RMS)Vin max = 10V
Iscale = Imax / Vin max
= 5A / 10V = 0.5 A / Volt (value to enter)
5.3.6 Analog Input Scale (velocity scale)
This parameter sets the analog input sensitivity for the velocity reference used when the
drive operates in velocity mode. Units for this parameter are RPM/Volt. To calculate this
value use the following formula:
Vscale = VELOCITYmax / Vin max
VELOCITYmax maximum desired velocity in RPM
Vin max max voltage fed to analog input at Velocity
Example: VELOCITYmax = 2000 RPM
Vin max = 10V
Vscale = VELOCITYmax / Vin max
= 2000 / 10V
= 200 RPM / Volt (value to enter)
S94P01G

Parameters
5.3.7 ACCEL/DECEL Limits (velocity mode only)
The ACCEL setting determines the time the motor takes to ramp to a higher speed.
The DECEL setting determines the time the motor takes to ramp to a lower speed. If
the ENABLE ACCEL/DECEL LIMITS is set to DISABLE, the drive will automatically
accelerate and decelerate at maximum acceleration limited only by the current limit
established by the PEAK CURRENT LIMIT and CURRENT LIMIT settings.
5.3.8 Reference
The REFERENCE setting selects the reference signal being used by the drive. This
reference signal can be either External or Internal. An External Reference can be one
of three types, an Analog Input signal, a Step and Direction Input or an Input from a
external Master Encoder. The Analog Input reference is used when the drive is either
in torque or velocity mode. The Master Encoder and Step and Direction reference is
used when the drive is in position mode. An Internal Reference is used when the motion
being generated is derived from drive’s internal variable(s), i.e., User Program, (Refer
to the PositionServo Programming Manual).
5.3.9 Step Input Type (position mode only)
This parameter sets the type of input for position reference the drive expects to see.
Signal type can be step and direction (S/D) type or quadrature pulse-train (Master
Encoder / Electronic Gearing). Refer to section 4.2.1 for details on these inputs.
5.3.10 Fault Reset Option
The FAULT RESET OPTION selects the type of action required to reset the drive after
a FAULT signal has been generated by the drive. ON DISABLE clears the fault when
the drive is disabled. This is useful if you have a single drive and motor connected
in a single drive system. The ON ENABLE option clears the fault when the drive is
re-enabled. Choose ON ENABLE if you have a complex servo system with multiple
drives connected to an external controller. This makes troubleshooting easier since the
fault will not be reset until the drive is re-enabled. Thus, a technician can more easily
determine which component of a complex servo system has caused the fault.
5.3.11 Motor Temperature Sensor
This parameter enables / disables motor over-temperature detection. It must be
disabled if the motor PTC sensor is not wired to either P7.1-2 or to the resolver option
module (P11).
5.3.12 Motor PTC Cut-off Resistance
This parameter sets the cut-off resistance of the PTC which defines when the motor
reaches the maximum allowable temperature. See section 4.5.2 for details how to
connect motor’s PTC.
5.3.13 Second Encoder
Disables or enables second encoder. Effectively selects single-loop or double-loop
configuration in position mode. The second encoder connects to the Encoder Option
Module (E94ZAENC1) connector P12, refer to section 6.4 for details on dual loop
operation.

S94P01G
Parameters
5.3.14 Regeneration Duty Cycle
This parameter sets the maximum duty cycle for the brake (regeneration) resistor. This
parameter can be used to prevent brake resistor overload. Use the following formula
to calculate the maximum value for this parameter. If this parameter is set equal to
the calculated value, the regeneration resistor is most effective without overload. One
may set this parameter with a value smaller than the calculated one if the drive will not
experience over voltage fault during regeneration.

If calculation of D is greater than 100% set it to 100% value. If calculation of D is

PositionServo Dynamic Braking Manual (G94BR01).
This parameter sets the feedback source signal for the buffered encoder outputs (P3.7
-P3.12). The source can be the drive’s feedback input (P4) or an optional feedback
module (resolver, second encoder etc.)
5.3.16 System to Master Ratio
This parameter is used to set the scale between the reference pulse train (when operating
in position mode) and the system feedback device. In a single loop configuration, the
system feedback device is the motor encoder or resolver. In a dual-loop system the
system encoder is the second encoder. See sections 6.3 and 6.4 for details.
5.3.17 Second to Prime Encoder Ratio
This parameter sets the ratio between the secondary encoder and the primary feedback
device when the drive is configured to operate in dual-loop mode. When the primary
feedback device is a resolver, the pulse count is fixed at 65,536. The resolutions of
encoders are “post quadrature” (PPR x 4). See section 6.4.
NOTE
Post quadrature pulse count is 4X the pulses-per-revolution (PPR) of the encoder.
5.3.18 Autoboot
When set to “Enabled” the drive will start to execute the user’s program immediately
after cold boot (reset). Otherwise the user program has to be started from MotionView
or from the Host interface.
5.3.19 Group ID
Refer to the PositionServo Programming Manual for details. This parameter is only
needed for operations over Ethernet network.
5.3.20 Enable Switch Function
If set to “Run”, input IN_A3 (P3.29) acts as an “Enable” input when the user program
is not executing. If the user program is executing, the function will always be “Inhibit”
regardless of the setting. This parameter is needed so the drive can be Enabled/
Disabled without running a user’s program.
5.3.21 User Units
This parameter sets up the relationship between User Units and motor revolutions.
From here you can determine how many User Units there is in one motor revolution.
This parameter allows the user to scale motion moves to represent a desired unit of
measure, (inches, meters, in/sec, meters/sec, etc). For example: A linear actuator
allows a displacement of 2.5” with every revolution of the motor’s shaft.
Units = Units / Revolutions
Units = 2.5 Inches / Revolution
Units = 2.5
5.3.22 Resolver Track
The Resolver Track parameter is used in conjunction with the resolver motors and
Buffered Encoder Outputs, (section 4.2.2). If a motor with resolver feedback is being
used a simulated encoder feedback is transmitted out the Buffered Encoder Outputs,
P3.7 to P3.12. The default resolution of this feedback is 1024 pulses per revolution, pre
quad. If a different resolution is required then the Resolver Track parameter is utilized.

5.3.23 Current Limit Max Overwrite
If this parameter is set to “Disable”, the parameters “Current limit”, “8 kHz peak current
limit” and “16 kHz peak current limit” cannot be overwritten. If you want to overwrite
the above three current limit parameters, this parameter must be set as “Enable”. To
prevent the motor from overloading, the “current Limit”, “8 kHz peak current limit” and
“16 kHz peak current limit” shall be set to values no higher than the corresponding
current limits of the motor in use. Note that this parameter applies to firmware version
(3.06) or higher.
5.4 Communication
5.4.1 Ethernet Interface
Programming and diagnostics of the PositionServo drive are done over the standard
10/100 Mbps Ethernet communication port. All devices on an Ethernet network have an
IP address. Before connecting MotionView software to the PositionServo drive, set up
the IP address of the drive and configure the PC as well.
The IP address of the PositionServo drive is composed of four sub-octets that are
separated by three dots. This conforms to the Class C Subnet structure. The sub-octets
IP_1, IP_2, IP_3 and IP_4 can be found by using “UP” and “DOWN” buttons of the LED
panel and are organized in the following order:
IP_1.IP_2.IP_3.IP_4
where each sub-octet IP_x can be any number between 1-254. On the LED display,
only IP_4 can be changed. IP_1, IP_2 and IP_3 can be changed once the PositionServo
drive is connected to the MotionView software. As shipped from the factory the default
IP address is 192.168.124.120.
If using the default PC Ethernet port on your computer for internal use (email, web
browsing, etc,) AC Tech recommends that you add an additional Ethernet port to
your PC. The most common and cost effective way to do this is by using a USB /
Ethernet dongle or a PCMCIA Ethernet card. Then configure this Ethernet port to the
PositionServo Subnet address and leave your local connection for your internal use.
There are two modes to obtain the IP address of the PositionServo drive by setting
DHCP equal to either 0 or 1. These modes are described herein. It is important to know
that the drive must be rebooted after changing any Ethernet settings such as IP address
and DHCP.
S94P01G
45
Parameters
5.4.1.1 Manually Obtain the PositionServo Drive’s IP Address
The PositionServo drive can be connected to a local PC or a private network if setting
DHCP=0. In this mode, make sure to set DHCP = 0 via the diagnostic display LED,
refer to section 7.1 for details. One can also verify the IP address of the drive via the
display LED. When shipped from the factory the default IP address of the PositionServo
drive is 192.168.124.120. Before MotionView can establish communications to the
drive, both the PC and the PositionServo drive must be on the same subnet, but have
different addresses. That is, both the PC and PositionServo drive shall have the same
sub-octects IP_1, IP_2 and IP_3 and different IP_4. When connecting MotionView to a
brand-new PositionServo drive out of box, set the PC’s IP address as 192.168.124.1.
Refer to section 6.4.1.3 on how to set up your PC IP address. Every time dHCP, or any
IP sub-octect IP_x is changed, one must reboot the PositionServo drive so that the
change can take effect.
Once the MotionView software is connected to the PositionServo drive, one can change
the DHCP setting and the drive IP address via the communication option “Ethernet” –
“IP setup” in MotionView. If one wants to configure the PositionServo drive’s IP address
under a specific subnet, for example, 10.135.110.xxx as shown below. One can pick
an available IP_4, e.g., 246 is used below, then click “OK” to confirm. After this change,
make sure to reboot the drive. After the drive reboot, the IP address stored in the EPM
before last power-off will be the drive’s IP address. In the meantime, one needs to
configure the PC’s IP address under the same subnet. In case, one may choose “Obtain
an IP Address Automatically” for the PC or pick up an available IP address, refer to
section 5.4.1.3 for details.
5.4.1.2 Automatically Obtain the PositionServo’s IP Address
To use this mode set dHCP = 1 via the diagnostic display LED (refer to section 7.1 for
details). After setting this parameter, cycle the input power to the PositionServo drive
so that the setting can take effect. The LED display will be “----“ if one checks the IP
address octets IP_1, IP_2, IP_3 and IP_4. This means that the drive is still trying to
acquire an IP address from the dHCP server. To obtain the PositionServo drive’s IP
address automatically, there must be a dHCP server available.
5.4.1.3 Set the PC’s IP Address
Follow these steps to set up the PC’s IP address:
To display the IP address of your PC, from the Start menu, select “Control Panel” and
then select “Network Connections”.

can use “Obtain an IP address automatically” after the PositionServo drive’s IP address
has been configured under the same subnet to which the PC is connected.
5.4.2 RS-485 Configuration
This parameter sets how the optional RS485 interface will function. The RS485
interface can be configured for normal operation (programming and diagnostics using
MotionView software) or as a Modbus RTU slave. Refer to section 4.4 for details on
communication interfaces.
5.4.3 Modbus Baud Rate
This parameter sets the baud rate for RS485 interface in Modbus RTU mode. When
the drive is operating in normal mode the baud rate is set to the same setting as the
RS232 interface.
5.4.4 Modbus Reply Delay
This parameter sets the time delay between the drives reply to the Modbus RTU master.
This delay is needed for some types of Modbus masters to function correctly.
5.5 Analog I/O
5.5.1 Analog Output
The PositionServo has one analog output with 10-bit resolution on P3 pin 23. The signal
is scaled to ±10V. The analog output can be assigned to following functions:
• Not Assigned
• Phase current RMS
• Phase current Peak
• Motor Velocity
• Phase R current
• Phase S current
• Phase T current
• Iq current (Torque component)
• Id current (Direct component)

S94P01G
Parameters
5.5.2 Analog Output Current Scale (Volt / amps)
Applies scaling to all functions representing CURRENT values.
5.5.3 Analog Output Current Scale (mV/RPM)
Applies scaling to all functions representing VELOCITY values. (Note: that mV/RPM
scaling units are numerically equivalent to volts/kRPM).
5.5.4 Analog Input Dead Band
Allows the setting of a voltage window (in mV) at the reference input AIN1+ and AIN1(P3 pins 24 and 25) such that any voltage within that window will be treated as zero
volts. This is useful if the analog input voltage drifts resulting in motor rotation when
commanded to zero.
5.5.5 Analog Input Offset Parameter
Allows you to adjust the offset voltage at AIN1+ and AIN1- (P3 pins 24 and 25). This
function is equivalent to the balance trim potentiometer found in analog drives. Lenze
recommends that this adjustment be made automatically using the “Adjust analog
voltage offset” button while the external analog reference signal commands zero speed.
5.5.6 Adjust Analog Input Zero Offset
This control button is useful to allow the drive to automatically adjust the analog input
voltage offset. To use it, command the external reference source input at AIN1+ and
AIN1- (P3 pins 24 and 25) to zero volts and then click this button. Any offset voltage
at the analog input will be adjusted out and the adjustment value will be stored in the
“Analog input offset” parameter.
5.6 Digital I/O
The PositionServo has four digital outputs. These outputs can be either assigned to one
of the following functions, or be used by the drives internal User Program
• Not AssignedNo special function assigned. Output can be used by the User Program.
• Zero SpeedOutput activated when drive is at zero speed, refer to “Velocity Limits”
• In Speed Window Output activated when drive is in set speed window, refer to “Velocity
• Current Limit Output activated when drive detects current limit.

motor with a holding brake. This output is active 10ms after the drive is
enabled and deactivates 10ms before the drive is disabled.
S94P01G
49
Parameters
5.6.2 Hard Limit Switch Action
Digital inputs IN_A1 and IN_A2 can be used as limit switches if their function is set
to “Fault” or “Stop and Fault”. Activation of these inputs while the drive is enabled
will cause the drive to Disable and go to a Fault state. The “Stop and Fault” action is
available only in Position mode when the “Reference” parameter is set to “Internal”, i.e.,
when the source for the motion is the Trajectory generator. Refer to the PositionServo
Programming Manual for details on “Stop and Fault” behavior. IN_A1 is the negative
limit switch. IN_A2 is the positive limit switch. Both are treated as normally open.
5.7 Velocity Limits
These parameters are active in Velocity Mode Only.
5.7.1 Zero Speed
Specifies the upper threshold for motor zero speed in RPM. When the motor shaft
speed is at or below the specified value the zero speed condition is set to true in the
internal controller logic. The zero speed condition can also trigger a programmable
digital output, if selected.
5.7.2 Speed Window
Specifies the speed window width used with the “In speed window” output.
5.7.3 At Speed
Specifies the speed window center used with the “In speed window” output.
These last two parameters specify speed limits. If motor shaft speed is within these
limits then the condition AT SPEED is set to TRUE in the internal controller logic. The
AT SPEED condition can also trigger a programmable digital output, if selected. For
example if “AT SPEED” is set for 1000 RPM, and the “SPEED WINDOW” is set for
100, then “AT SPEED” will be true when the motor velocity is between 950 -1050 RPM.
5.8 Position Limits
5.8.1 Position Error
Specifies the maximum allowable position error in the primary (motor mounted)
feedback device before enabling the “Max error time” clock. When using an encoder,
the position error is in post-quadrature encoder counts. When using a resolver, position
error is measured at a fixed resolution of 65,536 counts per motor revolution.
5.8.2 Max Error Time
Specifies maximum allowable time (in mS) during which a position error can exceed
the value set for the “Position error” parameter before a Position Error Excess fault is
generated.
5.8.3 Second Encoder Position Error
Specifies the maximum allowable error of the second encoder in post quadrature
encoder counts before enabling the “Second encoder max error time” clock.
5.8.4 Second Encoder Max Error Time
Specifies maximum allowable time (in mS) during which the second encoder’s position
error can exceed the value set for the “Second encoder position error” parameter before
a Position Error Excess fault is generated.

S94P01G
Parameters
5.9 Compensation
5.9.1 Velocity P-gain (proportional)
Proportional gain adjusts the system’s overall response to a velocity error. The velocity
error is the difference between the commanded velocity of a motor shaft and the actual
shaft velocity as measured by the primary feedback device. By adjusting the proportional
gain, the bandwidth of the drive is more closely matched to the bandwidth of the control
signal, ensuring more precise response of the servo loop to the input signal.
5.9.2 Velocity I-gain (integral)
The output of the velocity integral gain compensator is proportional to the accumulative
error over cycle time, with I-gain controlling how fast the error accumulates. Integral
gain also increases the overall loop gain at the lower frequencies, minimizing total error.
Thus, its greatest effect is on a system running at low speed, or in a steady state without
rapid or frequent changes in velocity.
NOTE
The following four position gain settings are only active if the drive is operating in
Position mode. They have no effect in Velocity or Torque modes.
5.9.3 Position P-gain (proportional)
Position P-gain adjusts the system’s overall response to position error. Position error is
the difference between the commanded position of the motor shaft and the actual shaft
position. By adjusting the proportional gain, the bandwidth of the drive is more closely
matched to the bandwidth of the control signal, ensuring more precise response of the
servo loop to the input signal.
5.9.4 Position I-gain (integral)
The output of the Position I-gain compensator is proportional to accumulative error over
cycle time, with I-gain controlling how fast the error accumulates. Integral gain also
increases overall loop gain at the lower frequencies, minimizing total error. Thus, its
greatest effect is on a system running at low speed, or in a steady state without rapid or
frequent changes in position.
5.9.5 Position D-gain (differential)
The output of the Position D-gain compensator is proportional to the difference between
the current position error and the position error measured in the previous servo cycle.
D-gain decreases the bandwidth and increases the overall system stability. It is
responsible for removing oscillations caused by load inertia and acts similar to a shockabsorber in a car.
5.9.6 Position I-limit
The Position I-limit will clamp the Position I-gain compensator to prevent excessive
torque overshooting caused by an over accumulation of the I-gain. It is defined in terms
of percent of maximum drive velocity. This is especially helpful when position error is
integrated over a long period of time.
S94P01G
51
Parameters
5.9.7 Gain Scaling Window
Sets the total velocity loop gain multiplier (2n) where n is the velocity regulation window.
If, during motor tuning, the velocity gains become too small or too large, this parameter
is used to adjust loop sensitivity. If the velocity gains are too small, decrease the total
loop gain value, by deceasing this parameter. If gains are at their maximum setting and
you need to increase them even more, use a larger value for this parameter.
5.10 Tools
5.10.1 Oscilloscope Tool
The oscilloscope tool gives real time representation of different signals inside the
PositionServo drive and is helpful when debugging and tuning drives. Operation of
the oscilloscope tool is described in greater detail in the MotionView User’s Manual
(IM94MV01). The following signals can be observed with the oscilloscope tool:
Phase Current (RMS): Motor phase current
Phase Current (Peak): Motor peak current
Iq Current: Measures the motor Iq (torque producing) current
Motor Velocity: Actual motor speed in RPM
Commanded Velocity: Desired motor speed in RPM (velocity mode only)
Velocity Error: Difference in RPM between actual and commanded motor speed
Position Error: Difference between actual and commanded position (Step & Direction mode only)
Bus Voltage: DC bus voltage
Analog Input: Voltage at drive’s analog input
Absolute Position: Absolute (actual) position
Absolute Position Pulses: Absolute position expressed in pulses of the primary feedback device
Secondary Abs Position: Absolute (actual) position of secondary feedback device
Secondary Position Error: Difference between actual and commanded position of secondary feedback device
Target Position: Requested position
Target Position Pulses: Requested position expressed in pulses of the primary feedback device
Position Increment: Commanded position increment

Operation
6 Operation
This section offers guidance on configuring the PositionServo drive for operations in
torque, velocity or position modes without requiring a user program. To use advanced
programming features of PositionServo please perform all steps below and then refer
to the PositionServo Programming Manual for details on how to write motion programs.
6.1 Minimum Connections
For the most basic operation, connect the PositionServo to mains (line) power at
terminal P1, the servomotor power at P7 and the motor feedback as appropriate.
DANGER!
Hazard of electrical shock! Circuit potentials are up to 480 VAC above
earth ground. Avoid direct contact with the printed circuit board or with
circuit elements to prevent the risk of serious injury or fatality. Disconnect
incoming power and wait at least 60 seconds before servicing drive.
Capacitors retain charge after power is removed.
As a minimum these connections must be made:
• Connect an Ethernet crossover cable between PositionServo’s P2 and your PC’s
Ethernet port. A straight patch cable can be used if using a hub or switch.
• Connect mains power to terminal P1. Mains power must be as defined on the
drive’s data label (section 2.1).
• When connecting to an encoder-based drive, take the encoder feedback cable
and connect it to the15 pin D-sub connector located at P4. When connecting to a
resolver-based drive, take the resolver feedback cable and connect it to the 9 pin
D-sub connector located at P4.
• Connect motor windings U, V, W (also known as R, S, T) to terminal P7 according
to Section 4.1.1. Make sure that motor cable shield is connected as described in
section 3.2.
• Provide an Enable switch (IN_A3) according to Section 6.5.
• Perform drive configuration as described in the next section.
Note
When using an encoder-based drive and operating with a resolver option module
as the primary feedback, a second encoder can be connected to P4.
6.2 Configuration of the PositionServo
The PositionServo must first be configured for the specific motor that will be used, the
mode of operation, and then any additional features that will be used.
Drive configuration consists of following steps:
• Motor Selection
• Mode of operation selection
• Reference source selection (Very Important)
• Drive parameters (i.e. current limit, acceleration / deceleration) setup
• Operational limits (velocity or position limits) setup
• Input / Output (I/O) setup
• Velocity / position compensator (gains) setup
• Optionally store drive settings in a PC file and exit the MotionView program.

S94P01G
Operation
6.3 Position Mode Operation (gearing)
In position mode the drive will follow the master reference signals at the 1-4 inputs of
P3. The distance the motor shaft rotates per each master pulse is established by the
ratio of the master signal pulses to motor encoder pulses (in single loop configuration).
The ratio is set by “System to Master ratio” parameter (see section 5.3.16).
Example 1
Problem: Setup the drive to follow a master encoder output where 1 revolution of
Solution: Ratio of System (motor encoder) to Master Encoder is 8000/4000 = 2/1
Set parameter “System to master ratio” to 2:1
Example 2
Problem: Setup drive so motor can follow a master encoder wheel where 1
Given: Motor encoder: 4000 pulses / revolution (post quadrature)
Master encoder: 1000 pulses / revolution (post quadrature).
Desired “gear ratio” is 3:1
Solution: Ratio is motor encoder PPR divided by master encoder PPR times the
(Motor PPR / Master PPR)*(3/1) => (4000/1000)*(3/1) => 12/1
Set parameter “System to master ratio” to 12:1
the master encoder results in 1 revolution of the motor
revolution of the master encoder results in 3 revolutions of the motor
“gear ratio”:
6.4 Dual-loop Feedback
In dual-loop operation (position mode only) the relationship between the Master input
and mechanical system movement requires that two parameters be set:
1. “System to master ratio” sets the ratio between the second encoder pulses (system
encoder) and the master input pulses.
2. “Prime to second encoder ratio” sets the ratio between the second and primary
(motor) encoder. If the motor is equipped with a resolver connected to the resolver
option module, the primary encoder resolution of 65536 (post quadrature) must
be used.
When operating in this mode the second encoder input is applied to integral portion of
the position compensator. Therefore it is important that the Position I-gain and Position
I-limit parameters are set to non 0 values. Always start from very small values of Position
I-limit values.
Note
When using an encoder-based drive and operating with the Resolver
Option Module as the primary feedback, a second encoder can be
connected to P4.
S94P01G

Operation
6.5 Enabling the PositionServo
Regardless of the selected operating mode, the PositionServo must be enabled before
it can operate. A voltage in the range of 5-24 VDC connected between P3 pins 26 and
29 (input IN_A3) is used to enable the drive, refer to section 4.1.7, note 3. The behavior
of input IN_A3 differs depending on the setting of “Enable switch function”.
TIP!
If using the onboard +5VDC power supply for this purpose, wire your switch between
pins P3.6 and P3.29. Jumper P3.5 to P3.26. If doing this, all inputs in group A must
be powered by P3.6.
When the “Enable switch function” is set to “RUN”:
IN_A3 acts as positive logic ENABLE or negative logic INHIBIT input depending on:
If user program is not running: Activating IN_A3 enables the drive
User program running: Activating IN_A3 acts as negative logic
“Inhibit” and operates exactly as if parameter
“Enable switch function” set to “Inhibit” (see below)
When the “Enable switch function’ set to “Inhibit”:
IN_A3 acts as negative logic INHIBIT input regardless of mode or program status.
Activating input IN_A3 doesn’t enables the drive. The drive can be enabled from the
user’s program or interface only when IN_A3 is active. Attempt to enable drive by
executing the program statement “ENABLE” or from interface will cause the drive to
generate a fault, F_36. Regardless of the mode of operation, if the input is deactivated
while the drive is enabled, the drive will be disabled and will generate a fault, F_36.
WARNING!
Enabling the servo drive allows the motor to operate depending on the reference
command. The operator must ensure that the motor and machine are safe to operate
prior to enabling the drive and that moving elements are appropriately guarded.
Failure to comply could result in damage to equipment and/or injury to personnel!
6.6 Drive Tuning
The PositionServo Drive will likely require some tuning of its gains parameters in order
to achieve best performance in the application in which it is being applied. Only when
the drive is placed in Torque Mode are the gain values not required to be tuned. The
table herein lists the gains parameters that should be adjusted for each of the drive
operating modes. These parameters are found within the ‘Compensation’ folder.
Before using the tuning procedures detailed in the next sections, ensure that the system
is in a safe condition for tuning to be carried out. It is often beneficial to first tune the
motor off-load to obtain approximate gains setting before fine tuning in the application.
Check that the drive output to the motor is disabled (via Input A3) and that the drive
is powered up. Make sure any user program code previously entered into the [Indexer
Program] folder in MotionView has been saved prior to tuning so it can be easily recalled
after tuning is complete.

Operation
WARNING!
During both the Velocity and Position tuning procedures the PositionServo
drive will perform rotation (motion) of the motor shaft in the forward and
reverse directions at velocities based on the settings made by the user.
Ensure that the motor and associated mechanics of the system are safe
to operate in the way specified during these procedures.
6.6.1 Tuning the Drive in Velocity Mode
1) Parameter Setup
Set up the motor as per the instructions given in the relevant section of this manual. The
motor must be configured correctly prior to tuning taking place.
The parameters Drive Mode, Reference and Enable Switch Function are configured
automatically by the velocity tuning program. They are not required to be set at this
stage.
2) Importing the Velocity Tuning Program
Before importing the Velocity Tuning Program, the example programs must be installed
from the Documentation CD that shipped with the drive. If this has not been done then
please do so now.
To load the TuneV program file to the drive, select [Indexer Program] in the MotionView
Parameter Tree. Select [Import program from file] on the main toolbar. Navigate to
[C:\Program Files\AC Technology\MotionView6.xx\Help\940Examples]. If during the
installation of the Documentation CD files a different default directory was selected,
then navigate to that directory. Click on the [TuneV.txt] file and select [Open].
3) Editing the Velocity Tuning Program
The Tune Velocity Program creates a step velocity demand in the forward and reverse
directions that the drive will attempt to follow (based on its velocity gain settings). The
drive will run for a set time in the forward direction and then reverse the reference and
run for the same set time in the reverse direction, showing the acceleration, deceleration
and steady state performance.
The speed and period (time for one complete cycle - forward and reverse) is set in the
Indexer program with the following statements:
; Motion Parameters
Define SpeedReference 5; speed reference in Rps
Define Period 500; time in millisec
Adjust these parameters to values suitable to the application in which the drive is used
before going to the next step.

Operation
4) Compile and Download Indexer Program to Drive
In the [Indexer program] folder in MotionView, select [Compile and Load with Source]
from the pull down menu. The TuneV program will be compiled and sent to the drive.
Select [Run] from the pull down menu to run the TuneV program. Do NOT enable the
drive (via input A3) at this stage.
5) Oscilloscope Settings
Open the [Tools] folder in MotionView and select the [Oscilloscope] tool. Click the [Set
on Top] box to place a checkmark in it and keep the scope on top.
In the Scope Tool Window make the following settings:
Channel 1: Signal = “Commanded Velocity”
Scale = appropriate to “SpeedReference” value set in Indexer Program
Channel 2: Signal = “Motor Velocity”
Scale = appropriate to “SpeedReference” value set in Indexer Program
Timebase: = as appropriate to “Period” value of Indexer Program
Trigger: = Channel 1, Rising Edge
Level: = 10 RPM
For better resolution, adjust these scaling factors during the tuning procedure.
6) Compensation Folder
In MotionView, open the [Compensation] folder for the drive. Set [Gain Scaling] to a
relatively low value, e.g. -6 for Encoder motor and -8 for a Resolver Motor. Set the
[Velocity P-gain] to a mid-value (16000) and set the [Velocity I-Gain] to 0.
7) Gain Tuning
The system should now be ready to start tuning the velocity gains. Start the Oscilloscope
by clicking [Run]. Apply the Enable input to Input A3 to enable the drive. At this point of
the procedure it is desirable to have little to no motion until we start to increase the gain
settings. If the motor vibrates uncontrollably disable the drive, lower the Gain Scaling
parameter value and repeat the input enable.
Step 1: Setting the Gain Scaling Parameter
The gain scaling parameter is a ‘course adjustment’ of the other gain’s parameter
values. Steadily increase the value of the gain scaling parameter until a reasonable
response is obtained from the motor (motor velocity starts to resemble the commanded
velocity).
58
S94P01G
Gain Scaling set too LOW
Motor Velocity significantly different than
Commanded Velocity.
Operation
Gain Scaling set OK
Motor Velocity resembles Commanded
Velocity. Motor Velocity is reasonably close
with a slight overshoot.
Gain Scaling set too HIGH
Motor Velocity shows significant overshoot
following the acceleration periods.
Gain Scaling set significantly too HIGH
Motor Velocity exhibits instability throughout
the steady state Commanded Velocity.
Depending on the system begin tuned, the motor may go from stable operation (little to
no overshoot with stable steady state velocity) to instability (continuous and pronounced
oscillations during steady state command) very quickly as gains scaling is increased.
The bandwidth for allowing some overshoot with a quick settle time may be very small
and may only be achieved through adjustment of the Velocity P-Gain, as described in
Step 2. Set the gain scaling parameter to the value preceding that where significant
overshoot or continuous instability occurs. With the Gain scaling parameter set move
onto tuning the velocity P and I gains.
S94P01G
59
Operation
Step 2: Fine Tuning the Velocity P-Gain
Slowly alter the Velocity P-Gain (increase and decrease) and observe the motor velocity
waveform on the oscilloscope. As the P-Gain increases the gradient of the velocity
during acceleration and deceleration will also increase as will the final steady state
velocity that is achieved. The application of too much P-Gain will eventually result in an
overshoot in the motor velocity, and further increases will result in larger overshooting
to the point that instability (continuous oscillation) occurs.
Increase the velocity P-gain until some overshoot occurs. Some overshoot is generally
ok, and the objective is typically to achieve the shortest possible settle time (steady
state velocity). When the system appears to have reached the shortest possible settle
time, with acceptable overshoot, cease from increasing the P-Gain.
Scope traces will be similar to those shown in Step 1, however the P-gain will now be
given a more precise adjustment in order to obtain the best possible tuning.
Good Fine Tuning of the P-Gain
Small overshoot with excellent settle time and
steady state velocity regulation.
Step 3: Setting the Velocity I-Gain
The purpose of the velocity I-gain is to correct any error that is present between
the commanded velocity and the steady state velocity that could not be rectified by
adjustment of the velocity P-gain. Adjustment of the velocity I-gain can also reduce the
steady state ripple that may occur in the velocity waveform. Lastly, velocity I-gain has a
positive effect on the holding torque produced by the motor.
Slowly increase the “Velocity I-Gain” and check for correction of the steady state error
in the velocity waveform. Continuing to increase the velocity I-gain will eventually result
in increased overshoot and instability in the motor velocity waveform. Stop increasing
the I-Gain when additional overshoot or instability starts to occur.

state velocity and Actual steady state velocity

Step 4: Check Motor Currents
Finally check the motor currents on the Oscilloscope. Make the following settings to the
oscilloscope.
Channel 1:
Signal = “Phase Current RMS”
Scale = as appropriate to peak current limit set in drive parameters (MotionView)
Timebase: = as appropriate to “Period” value of Indexer Program
Trigger: = Channel 2, Rising Edge
Level: = 10 RPM
Observe the waveforms to insure there are no significant oscillations. Reduce the gains
values if necessary.
The current waveform should be showing spikes of current during acceleration /
deceleration and steady state current during any steady state velocity. The maximum
value (peak value) of the current waveform is shown at the top of the oscilloscope
screen. This maximum value can be compared to the drive nominal current and peak
current settings to check how much of the motors potential performance is being used
and if optimum performance is being achieved.

clarity).
6.6.2 Tuning the Drive in Position Mode
Velocity Tuning should be carried out prior to the tuning of the position loop. Refer to the
Velocity Tuning section, 6.6.1.
1) Parameter Set up
In MotionView, open the [Limits] folder and then the [Position Limits] sub-folder. Set the
[Position Error] and [Max Error Time] parameters to their maximum values to effectively
disable the position error trip while tuning takes place. Ensure the system is safe to
operate in this manner.
Position Error = 32767
Max Error Time = 8000
The Drive Mode, Reference and Enable Switch Function parameters are automatically
configured by the velocity tuning program. They do not require setting at this stage.

S94P01G
Operation
2) Importing the Position Tuning Program
Before importing the Position Tuning Program, the example programs must be installed
from the Documentation CD that shipped with the drive. If this has not been done then
please do so now.
To load the TuneP program file to the drive, select [Indexer Program] in MotionView.
Select [Import program from file] on the main toolbar. Navigate to [C:\Program Files\
AC Technology\MotionView6.xx\Help\940Examples]. If during the installation of the
Documentation CD files a different default directory was selected, then navigate to that
directory. Click on the [TuneP.txt] file and select [Open].
3) Editing the Position Tuning Program
The Tune Position Program performs trapezoidal moves in the forward and reverse
direction separated by a defined pause (or time delay).
The Accel, Decel, and MaxV variables within the TuneP program define the ramps and
steady state velocity that will be used to execute the motion commands.
ACCEL = 500;500 rps*sAccel = Acceleration speed
DECEL = 500;500 rps*sDecel = Deceleration speed
MAXV = 20;20 RpsMaxV = Maximum
The size of each move and the pause between the moves is defined in the following
lines of code. There are two moves and pauses for the forward and reverse moves to
be performed.
MOVED 0.25;move 1 revMoveD = Move distance
wait time 200;wait time to analyze ‘standstill’ stabilitywait time = Delay period
MOVED -0.25;move opposite direction 1 rev
wait time 200;wait time to analyze ‘standstill’ stability
Adjust these parameters if required to best suit the application before going to the next
step.
4) Compile and Download Indexer Program to Drive
In the [Indexer Program] folder in MotionView, select [Compile and Load with Source]
from the pull down menu. The TuneP program will be compiled and sent to the drive.
Select [Run] from the pull down menu to run the TuneP program. Do NOT enable the
drive (via input A3) at this stage.
S94P01G
63
Operation
5) Oscilloscope Settings
Open the [Tools] folder]in MotionView and select the [Oscilloscope] tool. Click the [Set
on Top] box to place a checkmark in it and keep the scope on top.
In the Scope Tool Window, make the following settings:
Channel 1:
Signal = “Position Error”
Scale = as appropriate to the Error that results once the TuneP program is run.
Channel 2:
Signal = “Target Position”
Scale = as appropriate to the position move generated by the TuneP program
Timebase: = as appropriate to the “Period” of the moves being generated.
Trigger: = Channel 1, Rising Edge.
Level: = 10 Pulses
6) Compensation Folder
Open the [Compensation] folder in MotionView.
Leave the Velocity P-Gain and Velocity I Gain unchanged, as they should already have
been setup during velocity tuning. Do not adjust the Gain Scaling Parameter during this
procedure.
Set the [Position P-gain] to a low value (e.g. 100) and set the [Position I-Gain] and
[Position D-Gain] to 0.
7) Gain Tuning
The system should now be ready to start tuning the position loop. Start the Oscilloscope
by clicking [Run]. Apply the Enable input A3 to enable the drive.
The general goal in tuning the position loop is to achieve the minimum position error
while maintaining system stability. Some experimentation with gain values will be
required to achieve the best performance for the application.
Step 1: Setting the Position P-Gain
Slowly increase the Position P-Gain while watching the position error waveform on
oscilloscope Channel 1. It is important to watch both the Max Error as well as the
Average Error. While increasing Position P-gain, it should be apparent that both the
Max Error as well as the Average Error decrease.

S94P01G

Increased Position P-Gain

and the final positioning accuracy
At some point while increasing the P-Gain, additional oscillations (Average Error) will
start to appear on the position error waveform.
Further Increased Position P-Gain
Shows very good reduction to the maximum
error but with additional oscillations starting
Step 2: Setting the Position D-Gain
Slowly increase the D-Gain while watching the position error waveform on oscilloscope
Channel 1. As the D-Gain is increased, the position error oscillation caused by the
P-Gain, should start to decrease. Continue to increase the D-Gain until oscillation is
gone or until D-Gain is no longer having any apparent effect.
to occur.
Adjustment of Position D-Gain
in conjunction with the P-Gain dampens
out additional oscillations while improving
position error.
For optimum tuning, it is sometimes required to repeat the process of increasing the
P-Gain until a slight oscillation occurs and then increase the D-Gain to suppress that
oscillation. This procedure can be repeated until the increasing of D-Gain has negligible
effect on the position error waveform.
S94P01G
65
Operation
Step 3: Setting the Position I-Gain and Position I-Gain Limit
The objective here is to minimize the position error during steady state operation and
improve positioning accuracy. Start to increase the Position I-gain. Increasing the I-gain
will increase the drive’s reaction time while the I-Limit will set the maximum influence
that the I-Gain can have on the Integral loop. When adjusting the I-gain start with a very
small value for the I-gain (e.g. 1) then increase the I-gain parameter value until standstill error is compensated and positioning accuracy is satisfactory. Remember that large
values of Position I-limit can cause a large instability in the control loop and unsettled
oscillation of the system mechanics.

Position P-, I- and D-Gains
Step 4: Check Motor Currents
Set the oscilloscope channel 2 to ‘Phase Current RMS’
Channel 2:
Signal = “Phase Current RMS”
Scale = as appropriate to peak current limit set in drive parameters (MotionView)
Timebase: = as appropriate to the “Period” of the moves being generated
Trigger: = Ch1 Rising Edge
Level: = 10 Pulses
Observe the Current waveform to make sure that there are no significant oscillations
during the steady state sections of the position profile (times when target position is not
changing). If so then decrease the gains values until the oscillations are either removed
or reduced to an acceptable level.
66
S94P01G
Minimal oscillation when motor positioned to
target position.
Operation
8) Setting the Position Error Limits
Look at the position error waveform on the oscilloscope. Note the maximum time that
position errors exist (from the time axis of the scope) and the maximum peak errors
being seen (from the value at the top of the screen). Use this values to set the position
error limits to provide suitable position error protection for the application.
Open the ‘Limits’ folder and ‘Position Limits’ sub-folder within the MotionView node tree
and set suitable values for the ‘Position Error’ and ‘Max Error Time’ parameters.
Maximum error and time period for error
existing.
In this particular example maximum error in pulses is 95.0. The time this peak error
occurs can be read from the oscilloscope at approximately ½ of a division with each
division equal to 100ms, hence the error pulse lasts approximately 50mS. Suitable
settings for position error within this application might be as follows, although looser or
tighter limits could be applied depending on the requirements of the application.

Listen herein are fault codes caused mostly by hardware operations. Refer to the
PositionServo Programming Manual for additional fault codes related to programming.
Fault
Code
(Display)FaultDescription
Drive bus voltage reached the maximum level, typically due to motor
regeneration
Invalid Hall sensors code; Resolver signal lost or at least one motor hall
sensor is inoperable or not connected.
Drive exceeded peak current limit. Software incapable of regulating current
within 15% for more than 20mS. Usually results in wrong motor data or
poor tuning.
Drive heatsink temperature has reached maximum rating.
Trip Point = 100°C for all drives except 480V 6A & 9A drives
Trip Point = 108°C for 480V 6A & 9A drives
Position error has exceeded maximum value.
Motor over temperature switch activated; Optional motor temperature
sensor (PTC) indicates that the motor windings have reached maximum
temperature
Error in data exchange between processors. Usually occurs when EMI
level is high due to poor shielding and grounding.
Occurs when the bus voltage level drops below 50% of nominal bus
voltage while drive is operating. An attempt to enable the drive with low bus
voltage will also result in this fault

Position Error
Occurs when the phase current becomes higher than 400% of total drive’s
current capability for more then 5ms.
Statement executed within the Indexer Program results in a division by 0
being performed. Drive programming error (error in drive source code).
Statement executed within the Indexer Program results in a value being
generated that is too big to be stored in the requested register. Drive
programming error (error in drive source code).
Exceeded 32 levels subroutines stack depth. Caused by executing
excessive subroutine calls without a RETURN statement. Drive
programming error (error in drive source code).
Executing RETURN statement without preceding call to subroutine. Drive
programming error (error in drive source code).
Variable evaluation stack overflow. Expression too complicated for
compiler to process. Drive programming error (error in drive source code).
Relates to the MDV statements in the Indexer Program. Drive programming
error (error in drive source code).
Byte code interpreter error; May occur when program is missing the closing
END statement; when subroutine has no RETURN statement; or if data in
EPM is corrupted at run-time

8.3.2 Fault Event
When drive encounters any fault, the following events occur:
• Drive is disabled
• Internal status is set to “Fault”
• Fault number is logged in the drive’s internal memory for later interrogation
• Digital output(s), if configured for “Run Time Fault”, are asserted
• Digital output(s), if configured for READY, are de asserted
• If the display is in the default status mode, the LEDs display F0XX where XX is
current fault code.
• “Enable” LED turns OFF
8.3.3 Fault Reset
Fault reset is accomplished by disabling or re-enabling the drive depending on the
setting of the “Reset option” parameter (section 5.3.10).
8.4 Troubleshooting
DANGER!
Hazard of electrical shock! Circuit potentials are up to 480 VAC above
earth ground. Avoid direct contact with the printed circuit board or with
circuit elements to prevent the risk of serious injury or fatality. Disconnect
incoming power and wait at least 60 seconds before servicing drive.
Capacitors retain charge after power is removed.
Before troubleshooting
Perform the following steps before starting any procedure in this section:
• Disconnect AC or DC voltage input from the PositionServo. Wait at least 60
seconds for the power to discharge.
• Check the PositionServo closely for damaged components.
• Check that no foreign material has fallen or become lodged in the PositionServo.
• Verify that every connection is correct and in good condition.
• Verify that there are no short circuits or grounded connections.
• Check that the drive’s rated phase current and RMS voltage are consistent
with the motor ratings.
For additional assistance, contact your local PositionServo® authorized distributor.

External line fuse blows
Line fuses are the wrong size
Motor leads or incoming power leads are shorted to ground.
Nuisance tripping caused by EMI noise spikes caused by poor
grounding and/or shielding.
• Check that line fuses are properly sized for the motor being used.
• Check motor cable and incoming power for shorts.
• Check that you follow recommendation for shielding and grounding
listed in section “shielding and grounding” early in this manual.

Problem
Possible Cause
Suggested Solution
Ready LED is on but motor does not run.
If in Torque or Velocity mode:
Reference voltage input signal is not applied.
Reference signal is not connected to the PositionServo input
properly; connections are open.
In MotionView program check <Parameters> <Reference> set
to <External>
For Velocity mode only:
In MotionView check <Parameters> <Compensation><Velocity
loop filter> P-gain must be set to value more then 0 in order to
run. Without load motor will run with P-gain set as low as 20 but
under load might not. If P-gain is set to 0 motor will not run at all.
In Position mode with master encoder motion source (no program)
Reference voltage input signal source is not properly selected.
In MotionView program check <Parameters> <Reference> set
to <External>
In Position mode using indexing program
Variables ACCEL, DECEL,MAXV, UNITS are not set or set to
0. Before attempting the move set values of motion parameters
ACCEL, DECEL,MAXV, UNITS
In velocity mode, the motor runs away.
• Hall sensors or encoder mis-wired.
• PositionServo not programmed for motor connected.
• Check Hall sensor and encoder connections.
• Check that the proper motor is selected.
