Special drive modes (clock-direction and analog speed)

You have the possibility to control the motor directly via the clock and direction input or the analog input by activating the special drive modes. These include:

You can also determine the control mode – open loop or closed loop.

Digital input 1 serves here as an enable (see Connector X3 - inputs/outputs and external logic supply).

Note: After activating the special drive modes, the state of the CiA 402 Power State Machine is controlled only via a digital input (enable). State changes that are requested in object 6040h (controlword) have no effect.

Activation

The special drive modes are activated on delivery. You can deactivate them by setting 4015h:01h in the configuration file to the value "0" . To do this, you must insert this line:

4015:01=0

To select the mode, you must set the hex coding switch to a value between "00"h and "0F"h.

On delivery, the switch is set to "1".

The following table lists all possible modes and the value of the switch:

Value Mode
00h Clock-direction - - Open Loop
01h Clock-direction - - Open Loop
02h Clock-direction (test run) Test run with 30 rpm Clockwise direction of rotation Open Loop
03h Clock-direction (test run) Test run with 30 rpm Counterclockwise direction of rotation Open Loop
04h Analog speed Direction via "Direction" input Maximum speed 1000 rpm Open Loop
05h Analog speed Direction via "Direction" input Maximum speed 100 rpm Open Loop
06h Analog speed Offset 5 V (joystick mode) Maximum speed 1000 rpm Open Loop
07h Analog speed Offset 5 V (joystick mode) Maximum speed 100 rpm Open Loop
08h Clock-direction - - Closed Loop
09h Clock-direction - - Closed Loop
0Ah Clock-direction (test run) Test run with 30 rpm Clockwise direction of rotation Closed Loop
0Bh Clock-direction (test run) Test run with 30 rpm Counterclockwise direction of rotation Closed Loop
0Ch Analog speed Direction via "Direction" input Maximum speed 1000 rpm Closed Loop
0Dh Analog speed Direction via "Direction" input Maximum speed 100 rpm Closed Loop
0Eh Analog speed Offset 5 V (joystick mode) Maximum speed 1000 rpm Closed Loop
0Fh Analog speed Offset 5 V (joystick mode) Maximum speed 100 rpm Closed Loop
Note: A change to the switch does not take effect until after the controller is restarted.

Analog speed

The controller internally sets the operating mode to Velocity. To preset the speed, the voltage on the analog input is used and the corresponding target speed is written in 6042h.

Maximum speed

The maximum speed can be changed between 100 rpm and 1000 rpm. If a different speed is necessary, it can be set using the scaling factor (object 604Ch subindices 01h and 02h).

Computation of the analog voltage

There are two modes for calculating the analog input voltage.

Normal mode
You must connect the enable, direction and analog inputs (see chapter Connector X3 - inputs/outputs and external logic supply). The maximum analog voltage corresponds to the maximum speed. The direction is preset here via the direction input. There is a dead zone from 0 V to 20 mV in which the motor does not move.

Joystick mode
You must connect the enable input and the analog input (see chapter Connector X3 - inputs/outputs and external logic supply). Half of the maximum analog voltage corresponds to the speed 0. If the voltage drops below half, the speed increases in the negative direction. If the speed rises above half, the speed increases likewise in the positive direction. The dead zone here extends from Umax/2 ± 20 mV.

Test run with 30 rpm

The motor rotates at 30 rpm if the enable input is set.
