7.7.2.4 RDC calibration
RDC calibration is necessary after a motor has been replaced. During calibration, the A/D
converter and EEPROM of the RDC can be tested. All RDCs supplied by KUKA, including
replacement RDCs, are ready--calibrated.
G Return to the main menu by pressing the ”Esc” key.
G Select menu option ”A” (Set RDC offset and symmetry to default values); this option
automatically sets the RDC sine and cosine offset values to ”0” and the sine and cosine
calibration to ”20000” (default setting).
G Quit ”dserdw.exe” by pressing ”Esc” and open KR C1 (ICON).
G When the KR C1 controller is running, all axes must travel through at least one motor
revolution.
G Exit the KR C1 user interface again, as described above.
G Restart the ”dserdw.exe” program.
G Select menu option ”3” (Offset compensation); the existing offset compensation values
of the individual axes will be calculated and displayed:
-- the displayed values for offset compensation can be between --1500 and +1600
and depend largely on the installed A/D converter and multiplexer;
-- if t he v a lues a r e cor r e c t , p r es s key ” Y ” t o ac ce p t t he va l u es of t h e RD C a n d t o loa d
them into the EEPROM.
-- if the values are incorrect, press key ”N” to refuse the values from the RDC and
reset the RDC to its default values. In this case, repeat step 5 (RDC calibration)
and try again to calibrate the RDC. If calibration fails again, there is probably a
hardware fault.
Deviating sine and cosine offset values lead to poor quality control response
and therefore, on occasion, to rough running noise.
G With the KR C1 controller running, move all axes through at least one motor revolution.
G Select menu option ”4” (Symmetry calibration): the symmetry calibration values of the
individual axes will be calculated and displayed:
-- the displayed values for symmetry calibration can be between--18000 and +23000
and depend largely on the installed A/D converter and multiplexer.
-- if t he v a lues a r e cor r e c t , p r es s key ” Y ” t o ac ce p t t he va l u es of t h e RD C a n d t o loa d
them into the EEPROM.
-- if the values are incorrect, press key ”N” to refuse the values from the RDC and
reset the RDC to its default values. In this case, repeat step 5 (RDC calibration)
and try again to calibrate the RDC. If calibration fails again, there is probably a
hardware fault.
Deviating symmetry calibration values generally lead to the error ”Encoder cable
failure axis X”.
