AXIS#.MOTOR.TYPE

Description

AXIS#.MOTOR.TYPE sets the motor type and the torqueTorque is the tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis. Just as a force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist control algorithm for the motor. The following table provides the motor types:

AXIS#.MOTOR.TYPE	Motor and Control Type
0	Rotary surface permanent magnet motor
2	Induction motor with V/Hz open loop control
4	Induction motor with closed loop control
6	Rotary interior permanent magnet motor
8	Rotary brush motor

• This parameter is automatically configured for Kollmorgen motors when AXIS#.MOTOR.AUTOSET = 1 and motor memory version is 0.3 or greater.

• 
  

• ECCN 3A255 imposes special limitations on operating speed for induction motors. See ECCN 3A225 Limitations for Induction Motors.

Each motor type has a set of parameters that must be configured, either through automatically setting them to values in motor memory (when AXIS#.MOTOR.AUTOSET = 1) or through manual user settings. The list of required parameters are reported by AXIS#.SETUPREQLIST, which updates when the motor type changes. When any of the required parameters are not configured, the drive reports Faults and Warning Messages (Drive motor parameters setup incomplete) on the axis.

The following parameters are required for rotary surface permanent magnet motors (AXIS#.MOTOR.TYPE = 0):

• AXIS#.MOTOR.ICONT
• AXIS#.MOTOR.IPEAK

The following parameters are required for induction motors with open loop V/f control (AXIS#.MOTOR.TYPE = 2):

• AXIS#.MOTOR.ICONT
• AXIS#.MOTOR.IPEAK

The following parameters are required for rotary interior permanent magnet motors (AXIS#.MOTOR.TYPE = 6):

• AXIS#.MOTOR.ICONT
• AXIS#.MOTOR.IDMAX
• AXIS#.MOTOR.IPEAK
• AXIS#.MOTOR.KE

• AXIS#.MOTOR.LISAT
• AXIS#.MOTOR.LQLL
• AXIS#.MOTOR.PHSADVK1
• AXIS#.MOTOR.PHSADVK2
• AXIS#.MOTOR.POLES
