Antriebs-Parameter
Parameters of a drive axis that include, for example, the parameters of the corre-
sponding controllers, as well as the motor and encoder data. The parameters of
the higher-level technology functions (positioning, ramp-function generator), how-
ever, are called –> Application Parameters.
See –> Basic Unit System.
Antriebssystem
The drive system includes all the components in a product family (e. g. SINAM-
ICS). A drive system comprises, for example, –> "Line module"s, –> "Motor mod-
ule"s, –> "Encoder"s, –> "Motor"s, –> "Terminal module"s, and –> "Sensor mod-
ule"s, as well as additional components (reactors, filters, cables, etc.).
See –> Drive Unit
Antriebsgerät
The drive unit includes all the components connected via –> "DRIVE-CLiQ" that
are required for carrying out drive tasks: –> "Motor module" –> "Control unit"
–> "Line module", and the required –> "Firmware" and –> "Motor"s, but not addi-
tional components (such as filters or reactors).
Several –> "Drive"s can be implemented in a drive unit.
See –> "Drive system".
DRIVE-CLiQ
Abbreviation for "drive component link with IQ".
Communication system for connecting the different components of a SINAMICS
drive system (e. g. –> "Control unit", –> "Line module"s, –> "Motor module"s,
–> "Motor"s, and speed/position encoders.
The DRIVE-CLiQ hardware is based on the Industrial Ethernet standard and uses
twisted-pair lines. The DRIVE-CLiQ line provides the transmit and receive signals,
as well as the +24 V power supply.
Geber
An encoder is a measuring system that captures actual values for the speed
and/or angular/position values and makes them available for electronic processing.
Depending on the mechanical construction, encoders can be integrated in the
–> "Motor" (–> "Motor encoder") or mounted on the external mechanics (–> "Exter-
nal encoder"). Depending on the type of movement, a distinction is made between
rotary encoders (also known as "rotary transducers") and translatory encoders
(e. g. –> "Linear encoders"). In terms of measured value provision, a distinction is
made between –> "Absolute encoder"s (code sensors) and –> "Incremental en-
coder"s.
See –> "Incremental encoder TTL/HTL" –> "Incremental encoder sin/cos 1 Vpp"
–> "Resolver"
