5.4 Motor parameters configuration
We strongly recommend to use simDrive™ 325 VDC servo drives together with motors offered by
CS-Lab company. There are configuration templates for these motors ready for download and thanks
to them we do not need to set the motor parameters ourselves.
CS-Lab s.c. technical support doesn't include other companies motors configuration problems
however the simDrive™ is enough universal to be set correctly to work with almost every
synchronous AC/BLDC or brushed DC motor.
Caution! There are different types of brushless motors (AC). Generally we differentiate two types of
them: synchronous (with permanent magnets) and asynchronous. simDrive™ servo drive - just like
most other servo drives available on the market - requires synchronous motors. The asynchronous
motors (often used on spindles) require an inverter.
We start the servo drive configuration from motor parameters setting. Open configuration window
from menu „ConfigurationMotor parameters" or press the icon
5.4.1 Motor type
In this group we chose type of the motor we have connected to our simDrive™. We have to
possibilities here:
•
„DC Motor" (DC brushed motor)
•
„AC Motor" (AC or BLDC brushless motor).
