Automatic position controller setting

Introduction
In the "Automatic Controller Setting" screen form, you can select the drive unit and the drive
for which you want to perform automatic DSC position controller setting. The steps required
for this calculation can be performed via this screen form. The calculated Kv value is displayed
and can then be accepted online in the configuration data of the axis that is assigned to the
drive.
Prerequisites
In addition to the general prerequisites for automatic controller setting, the following boundary
conditions apply for setting the position controller:
● DSC is required for position controller setting.
