• Speed (velocity)
• Torque/ Force

IMPORTANT
Set travel limits and direction of tuning moves in reference to the piston-rod starting
position. Leave adequate travel for the piston rod to complete its moves while
tuning.
ATTENTION: Software overtravel must be set prior to initiating the tuning process.
Check the piston-rod starting position and allow for adequate travel.
Insufficient travel while auto tuning will trigger the software overtravel or cause an
end-stop impact.
IMPORTANT
Check Torque Offset, as shown below, only if the electric cylinder is installed in a
non-horizontal mount position.
