B.3.16.58 Moog Nonstandard Motors
The ‘Create Entry’ button allows the user to create a new non-standard motor entry. It opens a panel providing tools
for creation of the motor database parameters.
Select a motor by double-clicking on the appropriate motor name.
Alternatively, if a standard motor is similar to the motor required, then the standard motor parameters can be altered
and saved as a Non-standard motor:
Select the similar motor e.g. a G424-400, and make the changes required e.g. a Heidenhain encoder feedback is
required instead of resolver feedback.
Change the motor name to an easily recognisable name e.g. G424-400_Enc.
Change the appropriate parameters:
Click “Save Parameters As…” and save the new motor to the DatabaseMotorParametersNonstandard.mot file.
Commutation feedback
source changed to 2
(encoder feedback).
Encoder type changed to
5 (Heidenhain encoder)
Ensure encoder supply
voltage is correct (+5V
in this case).
