AXIS#.MOTOR.POLES

Description

AXIS#.MOTOR.POLES sets the number of motor poles for a rotary motor. It is used for commutation control and represents the number of individual magnetic poles of the motor (not pole pairs). A motor's magnetic poles range from 0 to 510, which corresponds to 0 to 255 magnetic pole pairs. The division value of motor poles (AXIS#.MOTOR.POLES) and feedback poles (FB1.POLES) must be an integer when setting drive to enable, otherwise a fault is issued.

• 
  
• This parameter is automatically configured for Kollmorgen motors when AXIS#.MOTOR.AUTOSET = 1 and can be modified while AXIS#.MOTOR.AUTOSET = 1 if its AXIS#.MOTOR.DISAUTOSET index = 1.

• 
  

• This parameter is required to be configured for all motor types.

Fieldbus Information

EtherCAT ***EtherCAT is an open, high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus system. The development goal of EtherCAT was to apply Ethernet to automation applications which require short data update times (also called cycle times) with low communication jitter (for synchronization purposes) and low hardware costs CoE and CANopen
