Select your Motor:
Carefully enter the details of your motor. If you are using a Baldor Motor, the catalog number or
spec. number can be found stamped on the motor's nameplate. If you are using a motor with
EnDat feedback, are not using a Baldor motor, or need to enter the specification manually, select
the I would like to define a custom motor option.
Confirm Motor and Drive information:
If you entered the catalog or spec. number on the previous page, it is not necessary to change
anything on this screen; all the required data will be entered already. However, if you selected the
I would like to define a custom motor option, it will be necessary to enter the required information
before continuing.
Motor Feedback:
If you entered the catalog or spec. number on the previous page, it is not necessary to change
anything on this screen; the feedback resolution will be entered already. However, if you selected
the I would like to define a custom motor option, it will be necessary to enter the feedback
resolution before continuing.
Drive Setup complete:
This screen confirms that drive setup is complete.
Select Operating Mode and Source:
In the Operating Mode section, choose the required operating mode. In the Reference Source
section, it is important to select 'Host/Mint' as the Control Ref. Source. This will allow the
Autotune Wizard to operate correctly, and allow further initial testing to be performed using Mint
WorkBench. Although the MicroFlex e100 may eventually be controlled over ETHERNET
Powerlink (EPL), the 'EPL' reference source should only be selected after the MicroFlex e100
has been commissioned and is ready to add to the EPL network. This can be selected by
choosing the Operating Mode tool in the Toolbox.
Application Limits:
It is not necessary to change anything on this screen. However, if you wish to adjust the
application peak current (App. Peak Current) and/or application maximum speed (App. Max.
Speed), then click in the appropriate box and enter a value.
Scale Factor:
It is not necessary to change anything on this screen. However, it is recommended to select a
user unit for position, velocity and acceleration. This allows Mint WorkBench to display
distances, speeds and accelerations using meaningful units, instead of encoder counts. For
example, selecting a Position User Unit of Revs (r) will mean that all position values entered or
displayed in Mint WorkBench will represent revolutions. The Position Scale Factor value will
change automatically to represent the required scale factor (the number of quadrature counts per
revolution). If you need to use an alternative unit, for example degrees, type "Degrees" in the
Position User Unit box and enter a suitable value in the Position Scale Factor box. Separate
velocity and acceleration units can also be defined. See the Mint help file for more information
about scale factors.
Profile Parameters:
It is not necessary to change anything on this screen. However, if you wish to adjust the
parameters for any control method, click in the appropriate box and enter a value.
Operation setup complete:
This screen confirms that operation setup is complete.
During commissioning, changed parameters are stored in the MicroFlex e100's temporary
(volatile) memory. For this reason, the Commissioning Wizard will occasionally prompt you to
