Installation Guide Linear Rotary Motors
6.4.1 Selection of the Motor Data Files
If the connected motor is a module with plug and play functionality, the following step can be skipped.
If no "PnP" symbol is printed on the motor nameplate, the module and motor-specific parameters must be
loaded manually via the Motor Wizard. So-called motor data files are available for this purpose. The motor
data file corresponding to the module (*.adf or *.adp) must be selected in the first step of the Motor Wizard.
The linear rotary motors are located in the installation directory of the LinMot-Talk software (download at
www.linmot.com) in the folder "Motors\LinMot Linear Rotary Motors\...".
Please contact support if the motor data files are not available.
6.4.2 Application-specific Parameters
Application-specific parameters, such as cable length, load mass, PID control settings, etc. can be entered
by the user using the Motor Wizard. The Motor Wizard must be started for this purpose. Once the Motor
Datafile has been selected (according to the previous chapter), the Motor Wizard guides you through the
menu step by step.
Application parameters should be entered as accurately as possible to ensure the best possible motor
control.
6.4.3 Inverting the Coordinate System
Starting with LinMot-Talk version 6.8 the direction of the coordinate system can be selected.
Default value for rotary motors: Positive counting direction = counterclockwise (see figure chapter 6.2.1)
Default value for linear motors: Positive direction of movement = Regular (see figure in chapter 6.2.2)
If the coordinate system is reversed, this has an influence on the current and the
force/torque of the motor. In case of any uncertainties, the LinMot support should definitely
be contacted.
