Performing Test Moves - Continuous Jog - Baldor MotiFlex e100 Installation Manual

6.4.9 Performing test moves - continuous jog

This section tests the basic operation of the drive and motor by performing a continuous jog.
Note: To stop a move in progress, click the red stop button or the drive enable button on
the toolbar. Alternatively, use the Mint WorkBench 'Red Stop Button' feature.
1. Check that the Drive enable button is
pressed (down).
2. In the Toolbox, click the Edit & Debug icon.
3. Click in the Command window.
4. Type:
JOG(0) = 10
This will cause the motor to move
continuously at 10 units per second. In Mint
WorkBench, look at the Spy window located
on the right of the screen. Check that the axis
tab is selected. The Spy window's Velocity
display should show 10 (approximately). If there seems to be very little motor movement, it
is probably due to the scale factor. In the Commissioning Wizard, on the Select Scale Factor
page, if you did not adjust the scale factor then the current unit of movement is feedback
counts per second. Depending on the motor's feedback device, 10 feedback counts per
second could equate to a very small velocity. Issue another JOG command using a larger
value, or use the Operating Mode Wizard to select a suitable scale factor (e.g. 4000 if the
motor has a 1000 line encoder, or 10,000 for a 2500 line encoder).
5. To stop the test, type:
STOP(0)
6. If you have finished testing click the Drive
Enable button to disable the drive.
