This chapter explains how to power up the 6445 after installation.
Topics are: • Setting up functions using switch S1
• Setting up serial address using switch S2
• AC switch (SW1) settings
• Testing the installation This section is intended to familiarize the user with the hardware adjustments and settings required to power up and operate the 6445 indexer/drive.DIP Switch S1 sets step size, digital electronic damping control, idle current reduction, and motor current settings.
Definition
The step size sets the amount of rotation per input step. Eight step sizes are available using DIP switch S1 positions 1-3 as shown. For all Pacific Scientific stepper motors and all 1.8° step motors Selecting a microstep size of 1/4 or smaller results in: • higher resolution • smoother low speed operation • ability to operate in low-speed resonance regions Note: Step sizes 1/10, 1/50 and 1/250 are not available in StepperBASIC. Setting DIP switch S1 to these positions will allow the unit to function properly, however speed and distance traveled will be inconsistent due to incompatible settings.
Digital Electronic Damping Control
Mid-speed instability and the resulting loss of torque occurs in any step motor/drive system due to the motor back EMF modulating the motor winding currents at certain speeds. Mid-speed instability can be explained as a region of potential instability that occurs as a result of the electronic, magnetic, and mechanical characteristics of any stepping motor system. The circuitry used to control this phenomenon does so by advancing or delaying the switching of the output current with respect to the incoming pulse train. This should be taken into account if the user is attempting to employ pulse placement techniques.
