Chapter 6 Axis Configuration Examples for the PowerFlex 755 Drive
Example 1: Position Loop
with Motor Feedback Using a
UFB Feedback Device
This example describes how to create an AXIS_CIP_DRIVE axis that is
associated to a PowerFlex 755 drive with motor feedback via a universal feedback
device, catalog number 20-750-UFB-1.
See Create an Axis for a PowerFlex 755 Drive on page 54
for more information
about feedback devices.
1. Once you have created an AXIS_CIP_DRIVE, open the Axis Properties.
2. From the Axis Configuration pull-down menu, choose Position Loop.
When you choose the configuration type, it determines the Control
Mode.
See the Integrated Motion on the EtherNet/IP Network Reference
Manual, publication MOTION-RM003
.
Example 1: Position Loop with Motor Feedback, General Dialog Box
3. From the Feedback Configuration pull-down menu, choose Motor
Feedback.
Now that you defined the axis as being a Position Loop with Motor
Feedback, the Motor and Motor Feedback dialog boxes become available.
TIP
Remember that you already assigned the feedback device when you
added the drive to your project.
TIP
After you have configured the axis and you change the Axis Configuration
type or the Axis Number, some of the configuration information is set to
default values. This can cause some previously entered data to be reset back
to its default setting.
Module type shows you the
type of drive you selected and
power structure you assigned
to via the PowerFlex 755 drive
Module Properties.
See Add a PowerFlex 755
Drive on page 49.
The newly created PowerFlex 755 drive module
name is the default. The Axis Number defaults
to 1, indicating the primary axis of the drive.
Axis Number 2 is used only for configuring a
Feedback Only axis.
