6.4.4 Performing a test move

This section tests the basic operation of the drive and motor.

1.Check that the Drive enable button is pressed (down).

2.In the Toolbox, click the Edit & Debug icon.

3.Click in the Command window.

4.Type:

JOG.0 = 10

This will cause the motor to move continuously at 10 units per second. In Mint WorkBench, look at the Spy window located on the right of the screen. The Spy window’s Velocity display should show 10

(approximately). If there seems to be very little motor movement, it is probably due to the scale factor. In the Commissioning Wizard, on the Select Scale Factor page, if you did not adjust the scale factor then the current unit of movement is feedback counts per second. Depending on the motor’s feedback device, 10 feedback counts per second could equate to a very small velocity. Issue another JOG command using a larger value, or use the Operating Mode Wizard to select a suitable scale factor (e.g. 4000 if the motor has a 1000 line encoder, or 10,000 for a 2500 line encoder).

5.To stop the test, type:

STOP.0
