Automatic position controller setting

Introduction
In the "Automatic Controller Setting" screen form, you can select the SINAMICS drive unit and
the drive for which you want to carry out an automatic DSC position controller setting. The
necessary steps for this calculation can be performed from 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.
Requirements
In addition to the General requirements for the automatic controller setting, the following
boundary conditions apply for setting the position controller:
● DSC is required for the position controller setting.
Tip: Activate the project setting "Use symbolic assignment" and select the Standard/
Automatic option for the axis-drive communication when configuring the drives. You
automatically use DSC for the servo drives with these settings.
● The speed controller has already been configured (e.g. with the automatic speed controller
setting).
● At least one axis is connected to the SINAMICS drive (servo).
● An online connection to the SIMOTION device must be established to transfer the results
of the automatic position controller setting.
● The balancing filter is not changed.
● For operation without precontrol, the equivalent time constant of the position controller must
be adjusted manually by the user (PositionTimeConstant = 1/Kv).
● Vibration on the load side is not taken into account for the position controller setting.
Procedure
To perform an automatic setting of the position controller, proceed as follows:
1. Select the "Target system" > "Automatic controller setting" menu command.
2. Select the drive unit and the drive (axis).
