● An infeed is inserted.
Note
If you add the infeed unit at a later point in time, then you must manually wire the "infeed
unit" component with the other components.
● An encoder is inserted (optional).

Inserting and specifying motors from the motor list

Procedure
Proceed as follows to insert and specify motors in your device configuration:
1. Open "Motors" in the hardware catalog.
The following motor types are available for selection:
– DRIVE-CLiQ motors
– Induction motors
– Synchronous motors
– Reluctance motors
– Motor data input (motor data must be entered manually, see Chapter "Inserting and
2. Select the unspecified motor in the device overview.
3. Drag the unspecified motor to the lower area of the Motor Module.
4. Click the unspecified motor in the device view.
5. Open the Inspector window if it has still not been opened or displayed.
6. In the Inspector window, select entry "Motor- Selection - ...".
7. Based on the article number, select a motor with the appropriate motor encoder from the
list.
The data of the selected motor are assigned to the unspecified motor. The white area
turns dark gray.
If you have selected a motor with encoder, the encoder and the encoder evaluation are
also added automatically.

Note
For DRIVE-CLiQ motors, when loading the project data (see "Load the project to the
drive unit (Page 163)") to the drive unit, the motor and encoder data are automatically
read from the hardware being used. It is not possible (or necessary) to specify the
motor data at this point. However, for consistency reasons, after loading to a drive
device and reading from the hardware, ensure that the project data is again
transferred to the Startdrive project (see "Loading project data from a drive unit
(Page 61)").
specifying motors that are missing from the motor list (Page 89)").
