Unknown Commutation Offset
The primary use for the Commutation Hookup Test is the case where the
machine is equipped with a PM motor that has an unknown Commutation
Offset.
The Commutation Offset, and potentially Commutation Polarity, can be
unknown for different reasons, including an unprogrammed ‘smart encoder’ or
any generic third-party encoder where Commutation Offset is unknown.
TIP
The Kinetix 350 and the Kinetix 5500 drives do not support the
Commutation Polarity attribute.
