Note:
This Quick Startup Guide is not an autonomous document, but is intended to direct users to the
section in the Operating Instructions which are important for start-up. Thus, these brief instructions
can only be completely valid when used in conjunction with the Operating Instructions. It is
especially important to observe the warning and information regarding potential hazards in the
Operating Instructions.
Warning:
Electrical equipment has parts an components which are at hazardous voltage levels.
If the warning information in the detailed Operating Instructions is not observed, this can result
in severe bodily injury or material damage.
Only appropriately qualified personnel may work with this equipment.
These personnel must be knowledgeable with all of the warning information and
service/maintenance measures of the Operating Instruction.
Perfect and safe operation of this equipment assumes professional transport, storage, erection and
installation as well as careful operating control and service.

Observe the actual speed by setting the analog output P640 to KK151. The
analog output is multiplied by a factor of five (P643 = 50) and it is also OFFSET
by 5 V (P644 = -5). This is necessary to see the small 0.5% jumps in the
system speed.
Step One: Set integration to a large number in order to eliminate its effects
(P240 >= 250ms). Observe jumps while increasing Proportional Gain (P235).
(Proportional Gain will be mostly in the range of 50 to 200). The goal is to attain
a rapid jump that is still stable.
Note: Observe the current controller to not run into current limits while optimizing.
Step Two: Gradually decrease the integration time (P240) to achieve a 30% to
40% overshoot and a nearly critical damping of the actually speed system.
While tuning the speed controller, make sure the torque step does not reach the
limits of torque or current (a step of 0.5% causes a 100% torque step when gain
is 200). For high gains the step should be smaller e.g. 0.1%. Check controller
setting at minimum speed and maximum speed and watch behavior during ramp
up, ramp down and fast stop.
Decrease the integral part to reach a 43% overshoot in step response. The
theoretical value is Tn = 4 * (2ms + Tgl); Tgl is the smoothing time of the actual
speed value ( if no smoothing is used Tn can be 7 to 8 ms).
In multi-drive applications the smoothing factor must be equal for all the drives
which have to perform together in order to get the same response from every
drive. Also, the smoothing of the setpoint must be the same as the smoothing of
the actual value.
If no smoothing of the actual value is used( P223 = 0), then the smoothing factor
of the speed controller setpoint should be 0.5ms to 0.8ms. Because of different
calculation cycles between the position controller and the speed controller,
setpoint smoothing is required to produce a smoother torque setpoint.
Run the system using a ramp generator up to full system speed and observe the
current setpoint. There will be some oscillations in the current and speed while
running at full speed. These oscillations may dampen out with a load applied to
the system. If the oscillations do not dampen out with a load applied the
proportional gain of the speed controller may need to be reduced. Also, spikes in
the current at a fixed frequency for a synchronous machine may indicate a
mechanical problem in the machine itself.
Note: Optimization should be carried out such that Proportional Gain maintains a
proportional relationship with the inertia of the system throughout the load
cycle. In other words, if the inertia of the system varies the Proportional
Gain should be adapted to this varying inertia so that proportional
relationship between the two is maintained ( i.e. Adaptive Gain [360]).
Setup a LU system and ActWtF (IBF) factor for the drive. Add steps to the actual
position to achieve a setpoint step. The step response should be without
overshoot. The position controller should work with proportional gains only!
Important:
P205 [340]has to be set up properly according to the LU-system. You can
change the LU-system later without changing P204 [340]. Only parameter P205
has to be changed to maintain the same behavior of the position loop. The pre-
control/Feed Forward of the speed controller should be 100% for stiff control with
rotational applications(not linear) and Synchronization.
The position controller can be limited with P207[340]. It is important to limit the
speed controller input signal if it is to be used without ramps. Many Synchronous
systems will require the position controller to be limited. (2 5%)

Note: When integration time is enabled, check to make sure that no overshoot
occurs. If speed controller pre-control is properly adjusted the
integration time can actually be left off (P206=0 [340]).
Remember that the Feed Forward will provide the setpoint for the
Speed Controller velocity and the Position Controller can have a
relatively small gain because it is only closing the loop to eliminate
error. Individual systems will require different values for Feed
Forward.
