The following installation procedure leads you through steps to permanently install your
drive. However, if you wish to familiarize yourself with the drive before you install it, you
can perform a bench top quick test. To do so, complete the following sections, in the order
given below:
Set configuration DIP switches (on top of drive). For bench top operation, set peak current at or
below the motor's continuous current rating.
Set compensation DIP switches (on bottom of drive)
Connect a Controller (TQ10) or Indexer (TQ10SD)
• TQ10 Torque Drive – Connect Command Input signals
• TQ10SD Step & Direction Drive – Connect Step and Direction Inputs
Connect the Motor to the Drive
Connect AC Power
Test your system
During your permanent installation, complete the other sections in this chapter—drive and
motor mounting, connecting the load, and tuning.
The following procedures will lead you through the steps required to permanently install
your TQ10 Drive and motor.
Configure the TQ10 Drive's DIP switches for your motor and application. Two 6-position
DIP switches—Switch 1 (SW1) and Switch 2 (SW2)—are located on top of the drive. The
table below summarizes their settings. A 3-position DIP switch—Switch 3 (SW3)—is
located on the bottom of the drive. See the section after this for instructions on setting SW3.
Default Settings
The factory default position is off for all switches. You must set these switches appropri-
ately for your application.
Peak Current
Set DIP switches SW1-#1 — SW1-#3 for the peak current that you want your drive to
produce. If you use a high performance motor (peak current rating greater than three times
the continuous current rating), such as Compumotor's SM Series servo motors, see the
caution note below.
Peak current settings for initial drive tuning with SM and NeoMetric Motors: Set peak current
at twice the motor's continuous rated current, or less. Otherwise, motor damage due to
excessive heating may result from high peak currents and improper tuning values. See
Tuning in this chapter for a procedure to iteratively raise peak current during tuning.
Time at Peak Current
Set DIP switches SW1-#4 — SW1-#6 to control the length of time the drive can produce
peak current, before it goes into current foldback.
