9 Drive Servo Start-Up Application(as from SW 3)
Introduction SW 3 / SW 4 provides support for drive start-up and diagnostics by means of the
following functions:
Description in section
Measurement of drive control loops (current, speed, position) 9.2
Function generator 9.3
DAC output
Mixed I/O output 9.4
Circularity test (SW 4 and higher)
Conventional quadrant error compensation (SW 2 and higher)
Neuronal quadrant error compensation (SW 4 and higher)
9.5
Trace function (user-parameterizable oscilloscope function – SW 4 9.6

9.1 General Comments

Safety measures All measuring functions initiate traversing motions. It is therefore important to en-
sure that
Sthe EMERGENCY STOP switch is within reach
Sthe traversing range is free of obstacles.
Always enter the lowest possible traversing range limits. The measuring
function is aborted if the specified traversing range is exceeded.
For axes with an endless traversing range, the traversing range monitoring function
can be deactivated by entering “0” for the traversing range upper and lower limits.
The value 0.0 corresponds to zero traversing limits, i.e. the
traversing range is not monitored.
You can also end the movement by means of the
SNC STOP key
SSTOP softkey
SRESET key
or by cancelling the
Scontroller enabling command,
Sdrive enabling commands or
Straverse enabling command
Sfeed or spindle enabling command
or by setting the OVERRIDE switch to 0/50 for feed/main spindle drives.
Enabling commands There are three possible methods of enabling traversing motions; these can be
selected in the Enables toggle field:
Sinternally
SPLC
SPLC or NC (SW 4 and higher)
