Chapter 2 – Commissioning
Starting the communication
The Gem Drive Studio software can communicate with the drives by using either the RS232 serial link or the
CANopen fieldbus. All drives of the application are connected together via CANopen:
- Set the node ID code value by using the micro-switches on the front panel for all drives of the application (code
values must be different from each other),
- Connect the serial link RS232 or the CANopen fieldbus between the PC and one drive of the application,
- Start the Gem Drive Studio software on the PC,
- Open the Project,
- Select the communication interface between the drives and the PC (Serial link or CANopen bus),
- Start the communication,
- If the Project is not defined, use the Scan function for starting the communication.
2.4 - PARAMETER SETTING
This chapter describes the parameterization procedure of the drive by means of the "Gem Drive Studio" software.
2.4.1 - CONFIGURATION OF THE DRIVE
For a standard drive application (analog speed drive, stand-alone positioner or stepper emulation), select the
required target application in the Device Config window. In this case, the drive input and output functionalities as
well as the drive operation mode are automatically set according to the selected application template. The
GemDriveStudio parameterization windows are also adapted to the target application in order to display only the
required parameters and functions.
In order to access the full parameter set and operation modes, select Expert mode in the Device Config window.
2.4.2 - CONFIGURATION OF THE MOTOR
If the motor is referenced in the Gem Drive Studio motor catalog, it can be simply selected in the proposed motor
list.
If the motor is not referenced in the Gem Drive Studio motor catalog, the motor parameters can be manually
adjusted or calculated by using the drive's built-in procedures: current loop calculation, auto-phasing. The motor
can then be referenced in the Gem Drive Studio motor catalog by using the Add new motor command (see
Gem Drive Studio quick start manual). The motor and the position sensor parameter values are manually
entered and then saved in the Gem Drive Studio motor catalog with a new motor reference.
2.4.2.1 - Selection in the motor list
In the motor list, select the motor used in the application. The motor selection will automatically set the following
drive parameters: position sensor (resolver or encoder), thermal sensor, current limits, speed limit, current loop
gains and motor control parameters.
Check that the thermal sensor calibration is complying with the motor application and modify the threshold values
if necessary.
Check that the current limit and the I²t protection adjustment are complying with the motor application, and modify
them if necessary.
Check that the motor speed limit is complying with the application and reduce its value if necessary.
If external inductances are serially connected with the motor winding for filtering, renew the current loop gain
calculation by using the total value of the phase-to-phase inductance.
If the position sensor adjustment (resolver or absolute encoder) has been modified, the auto-phasing procedure
can be used to find the new adjustment (position offset).
