Note! When data entry is complete the Take parameters command is executed automatically (menu 14 MOTOR DATA, PAR: 2020). The motor data entered during
the STARTUP WIZARD procedure are saved in a RAM memory to enable the drive to perform the necessary calculations.
These data are lost if the device is switched off. To save the motor data follow the procedure described in step 9.
At the end of the procedure proceed to step 3
Step 3 - Autotune with motor at stand-still or coupled to the load
The drive carries out the motor autotune procedure (real measurement of motor parameters).
There are two self-tuning modes: Reduced (default) and Extended, which can be selected using parameter 2026 Au-
totune mode. The reduced procedure is fast and recommended in most cases. The extended procedure can be used
Note! If this operation generates an error message (e.g. Error code 1), check the connections of the power and control circuits (see step 1 - Connections), check the
motor data settings (see step 2 - Setting motor parameters) and then repeat the guided Autotune procedure.

(1) Press the E key to proceed to the autotune procedure.
(2) Press the E key to start the autotune procedure.
(3) Enable the drive by connecting terminal 9 on the I/O card (Enable) to terminal 12 (+24 V). To abort this operation,
press the ESC key.
(4) Once the drive is enabled the autotune procedure starts. This may take a few minutes, depending on the type of
motor being used.
(5) At the end of the procedure the following screen is displayed. After opening the Enable contact, go to step 4
(if using a feedback card) or 5 to proceed with the wizard.
Note! At the end of the autotune procedure there is a request to open the Enable contact (terminals 9 - 12); this results in the automatic execution of the Take tune
parameters command (menu 14 MOTOR DATA, PAR: 2078).
The calculated parameters are saved in a RAM memory to enable the drive to perform the necessary calculations. These data are lost if the device is
switched off. To save the motor data follow the procedure described in step 6.
Step 4 - Setting encoder parameters
If the drive is to be used in closed loop mode, a check must be run to make sure that an encoder feedback card is
installed; make the connections as described in paragraph 7.2.3 and set the following parameters for the encoder
installed on the motor:
