Overview Overview After the VT320E follow-up control system is correctly wired, debugging work is required before using the system. The basic debugging process includes: 1. According to the drive used, set the corresponding servo parameters. For details, please see Description of Select Different Drives.
Page 15
Set Mechanical Parameter Set Mechanical Parameter Setting the correct mechanical parameters is used to ensure that the machine tool's running direction, speed, etc. are consistent with the control direction, speed, etc. Avoid damage to the machine tool or unexpected situations caused by inconsistent axis directions, speeds, etc.

Perform Servo Calibration Perform Servo Calibration The main function of servo calibration is to detect and compensate the zero drift voltage of the servo motor to ensure that the follow-up controller can accurately control the movement of the servo motor. Due to servo calibration, the motor may oscillate back and forth in a small amplitude.
Page 20
Perform Capacitance Calibration Perform Capacitance Calibration The main function of capacitance calibration is to detect and calibrate the distance between the precapacitance amplifier and the workpiece to ensure that the follow-up controller can accurately control the servo motor to follow. During capacitance calibration, the cutting head will first approach the workpiece slowly and then slowly lift up.

The pulse number per revolution and pitch need to satisfy the formula: Pulse equivalent = pitch*1000/pulse number per revolution , which can be divisible to 1 decimal place to ensure that the speed is correct. Example: When the current pitch is 10mm, the pulse number per revolution should be set to 10000, 20000, 50000, 100000 to ensure normal speed.

Follow-up Touch Part Delay (FollowTouchDelay) When the follow-up controller is in the follow-up state, if the duration of the touch part reaches this time, the touch part alarm will be displayed on the interface, and the input/output interface will output the alarm status. When this value is set to 0, the touch part alarm during follow-up will be disabled.
