Inputs have all necessary filtering and line balancing components so no external noise suppression networks are needed. All conductors must be enclosed in one shield and jacket around them. Lenze recommends that each and every pair (for example, EA+ and EA-) be twisted. In order to satisfy CE requirements, use of an OEM cable is recommended.
Using P4 as second encoder input for dual loop operation. P4 can be used as second loop encoder input in situation when motor equipped with resolver as primary feedback. If such motor is used, the drive has to have a resolver feedback option module installed.

and motors from the other manufacturers. We have tested many motors with the SimpleServo and put their parameters in a database for customer convenience. If your motor is in the database, you do not need to provide any motor data to set it up. However, if your motor is not in the database, it can still be used, but some electrical and mechanical data will need to be provided to create a custom motor profile.
Note If drive is ENABLED, a new motor cannot be set. You can only set a new motor when the drive is DISABLED. To View selected motor parameters or make a new motor selection: • Click “CLICK HERE TO CHANGE”. Selection dialog opens. (See figure above). If you are just viewing motor parameters click Cancel on Motor Parameters dialog when done.
Click OK to dismiss Motor Parameters dialog. MotionView will ask if you want to autophase your custom motor. If you answer “No”, the motor data will be loaded immediately to the drive’s memory. If you answer “Yes”, the motor dialog will be dismissed and the drive will start the autophasing sequence.
5.6.3 Custom Motor Data Entry Motor Parameters dialog has three sections (frames) dividing motor parameters on groups: Electrical constants, Mechanical constants, and Feedback. When creating a custom motor you must supply all parameters listed in these sections. All entries are mandatory except inertia (Jm) parameter.

Example: Suppose that the maximum continuous phase to phase winding current (Imax) is not given. Instead, we look up and obtain the following: Continuous stall torque T = 3.0 lb-in Motor torque constant Kt = 0.69 lb-in/A Dividing, we obtain: Imax = 3.0 lb-in / 0.69 lb-in/A =4.35 (A) Our entry for Imax would be 4.35.

Halls Order Each hall signal is in phase with one of the three phase-phase voltages from the motor windings. Hall order number defines which hall sensor matches which phase- phase voltage. Motor phases are usually called R-S-T or U-V-W or A-B-C. Phase- Phase voltages are called Vrs, Vst, Vtr.

TABLE 9 HALL ORDER NUMBERS FOR DIFFERENT HALL SEQUENCES Halls Order Hall Sequence 1-2-3 1-3-2 2-1-3 2-3-1 3-1-2 3-2-1 Note Each Hall Voltage will be in phase with one and only one Output Voltage. B leads A for CW. This is encoder phase relationship for CW/CCW shaft rotation. When you obtain the diagram for your motor phasing similar to shown above, it’s assumed by software that motor shaft rotating CW when looking at the mounting face of the motor.
6 Programmable Features and Parameters All SimpleServo drives are configured through the serial interface. The drives have many programmable and configurable features and parameters. These features and parameters are accessible via a universal software called MotionView. Please Refer to the MotionView User’s Manual for details on how to make a connection to the drive and change parameter values.
6.2 Motor Group Motor group shows currently selected motor. You can click “CLICK HERE TO CHANGE” to view selected motor parameters or select new motor. Please refer to Section 5.5 for details on how to select motor. 6.3 Parameters Group 6.3.1 Drive operating modes The SimpleServo has 3 operating modes: Torque, Velocity and Position.
6.3.4 Peak current limit Peak current sets Motor RMS phase current that is allowed for up to 2 Seconds. After this two second limit, the current limit will be reduced to the value set in the Current Limit parameter. When the motor current drops below nominal current for two seconds, the drive will automatically enable the peak current level again.
6.3.10 Reset Option RESET OPTION selects the type of action you must take to reset the drive after a FAULT signal has been generated by the drive. ON DISABLE clears the fault when the drive is disabled. This is useful if you have a single drive and motor connected in a simple servo system.
6.3.17 Master to system ratio This parameter used to set scale between reference pulse train (when operating in position mode) and system encoder - motor encoder if used in single loop configuration and second encoder if used in dual loop configuration. See sections 8.3 and 8.4 for details.
6.5.5 Analog input dead band Allows you to set voltage window (in mV) in such manner that any voltage value in that window will be treated as zero. This is useful if your system zero voltage drifts making drive shaft drift when commanded to zero. 6.5.6 Adjust analog voltage offset This control button is useful to allow the drive to automatically adjust offset.

Velocity I-gain (Integral) The output of the I-term portion of the integral gain compensator is proportional to accumulative error over cycle time, with I-term controlling how fast the error accumulates. Integral gain also increases overall loop gain at the lower frequencies, minimizing total error.
6.10 Faults Group Faults Group loads fault history from the drive. New faults replace oldest faults in a circular manner. In any case fault # 0 is the most recent fault. To clear faults history from the drive’s memory click on “Reset Fault history” button. Each fault has its code and explanation of the fault.

8.6 Tuning in velocity mode Note In this mode the settings for Position compensation have no effect. Make sure that drive is online (connected). Make sure that the drive is disabled. Select <Parameters> folder from the node tree. Click on <Reference> parameter and change it to “INTERNAL”.
8.7 Tuning in position mode. Note In this mode the Velocity gains should be set first. Perform velocity loop tuning as per section 8.6. Make sure that drive is online (connected). Make sure that the drive is disabled. Set up your external indexer to perform following move: Move forward N steps, where N = number of steps to perform full motor shaft revolution.
9 Sample Motor Responses to Gain Settings 9.1 Motor response to gain settings (Velocity mode) 9.1.1 Low P-gain P-gain =100. I-gain=0 Current didn’t reach maximum possible value. 9.1.2 Correct P-gain P-gain =500. I-gain=0 Current reaches maximum value. IMS94S-mv1...
9.1.3 I-gain too high P-gain =500. I-gain=300 Notice big velocity overshoot. 9.1.4 Correct P-gain and I-gain P-gain =500. I-gain=100 Notice very low velocity overshoot and very close match of the waveforms. IMS94S-mv1...
9.2 Motor response to gain settings (Position Mode) 9.2.1 Non-optimal P-gain / D-gain relationship P-gain = 200 D-gain = 300 Problem: Noticeable oscillation (Channel 2). Insufficient D- gain / excess of P-gain for this D-gain setting. Treatment: Decrease P-gain, increase D - gain. Side effects: Decreasing P-gain increases position error, Increasing D-gain lowers bandwidth and increases hi frequency noise.
9.2.2 Optimal P-gain / D-gain relationship Note Fixed problem in Section 9.2. Position error is small and only 20 mS long. Position regulation bandwidth of the system is 1/20mS = 50Hz. IMS94S-mv1...
