Motion Task; Servo Gains; Save & Print; Measure - Kollmorgen AKD-P01206-NBEC-0000 Training Manual

Motion Task

From the scope screen a motion task can
be called. Using the motion task in the
scope will allow the exact motion required
for the application to be triggered and
captured. A plot of the motion task can
show any problems in the motion that may
be occurring.

Servo Gains

Servo Gains, Observer, All Gains, and AR Filter will be addressed in another class. All
of these can be seen from the scope screen and changed to improve the system
performance. As always, care should be taken when changings gains and filters as
systems can become unstable.
Save & Print
After a scope plot has been taken it may
be important to share the scope plot with
your colleagues commissioning purposes,
troubleshooting or bragging right.
The scope plot can be saved as an image
in BMP, JPG, PNG, EMF or WMF format.
The plot can also be saved in a csv (Comma Separated Values) file format which will
allow the data points to be brought into an Excel Spread sheet. This can be very useful
when evaluating the data collected.
The scope plot can also be sent to a print to create a hard copy. Associated with the
print tab is the Page Setup tab which allows the page to be set to the most practical
format for display. For example, Landscape or Portrait.

Measure

The measure tab allows basic information to be displayed. The data displayed is that
set in the Channels tab and will indicated the Average, Minimum, Maximum, Peak to
Peak, and RMS values. The data will be displayed in the units set for the system.
The average value is based on the sum of the data points divided by the number of data
points. The minimum and maximum values are the highest and lowest data points. The
Peak to Peak value is the value from the minimum to maximum values.
RMS (Root Mean Square) is the geometric average of the value.
