6.2.1 MOTOR PARAMETERS MENU DESCRIPTION
MOTOR PARAMETERS POLES=
Description: it indicates the number of motor poles
Allowed values:
from 2 to 24 in 2 unit steps
Note: set the values indicated on the nameplate of
the motor or refer to the data indicated on the motor
catalogue.
MOTOR PARAMETERS SIZE=
Description: it indicates the motor peak current value
Allowed values:
from 1.0 A to the peak current supplied by the drive in
100mA steps
Note: If this value is not available, it is possible to
obtain the peak current by means of the following
formula:
I
peak
=1.41*Tm/K
t
where Tm is the max torque in Nm and Kt is the
motor torque constant in Nm/A
MOTOR PARAMETERS VOLTAGE=
Description: it indicates the motor winding voltage
rating value
Allowed values:
• 230 V (for 230 V motors)
• 400 V (for 400/460 V)
Note: set the values indicated on the nameplate of
the motor or refer to the data indicated on the motor
catalogue
MOTOR PARAMETERS SPEED=
Description: it indicates the nominal motor speed
Allowed values:
from 100 rpm to 9999 rpm in 10 rpm steps
Note: set the values indicated on the nameplate of
the motor or refer to the data indicated on the motor
catalogue
MOTOR PARAMETERS BEMF=
Description: it indicates the motor generated back-
electromotive force value at 1000 rpm.
Allowed values:
from 0 V to 750 V in 1 unit steps
Note: the drive uses this information to optimize the
current loop as a function of the motor rotation
velocity. If this value is not available, it is possible to
obtain the BEMF by means of the following formula:
BEMF=K
t
*60.4
where K
t
is the motor torque constant in Nm/A
MOTOR PARAMETERS Rw=
Description: it indicates the motor resistance value,
measured between phase and phase
Allowed values:
from 0 Ω to 100 Ω in 0.1 unit steps
Note: set the values indicated on the nameplate of
the motor or refer to the data indicated on the motor
catalogue. If this value is not available, it is possible
to obtain it using a multi-meter (set as an ohm-meter)
MOTOR PARAMETERS Lw=
Description: it indicates the motor inductance value,
measured between phase and phase
Allowed values:
from 0 mH to 200 mH in 0.1 unit steps
Note: set the values indicated on the nameplate of
the motor or refer to the data indicated on the motor
catalogue. If this value is not available, it is possible
to obtain it using a multi-meter (set as an inductance-
meter).
Attention: for G motors use the L
q
value instead of L
