The software also provides a useful Scope Function which was used to observe motor behaviors.
Function 28. Scope Function
The drive is controlled by the Arduino UNO microcontroller via a 9-pin analog male connector.
The drive continuously reads inputs from the microcontroller and communicates these
commands to the actuating shaft. It then provides adjustments by reading encoder feedback data
and sending this information to the microcontroller for processing.
7.2 Moog DS2110 Servo Drive Setup Procedures
The following procedure is only to be used to make the servo drive operational.
1. Apply three phase power to drive without encoder connected. It is fine if the motor power
to motor is connected.
2. Connect a serial cable with a null modem adapter attachment to the servo drive in the
RS232 communication port
3. Start Maxforce software (also referred to as Launchpad.exe)
4. Drive should be detected upon software launch and will ask to run initial setup. Say yes.
5. To select the model number, use model number G415-800APTC and not the actual model
number. This is a linear actuator model with the same setup parameters. Click on “use
new model”.
6. Follow on screen instructions for booting and re-booting.
7. Turn power back on for the drive. If the drive enable is active prior to startup, the drive
will not start. If this happens, the drive will need to be reset to its factory default settings.
8. Connect 24V to the drive enable pin (J2A pin 1) and GND to RET on J2A.
