In closed-loop operation, the control value for the PWM converter integrated in the C-863.12
and therefore the settling behavior of the system is optimized via the following corrections:
▪ Servo algorithm: The position error, which results from the difference between the
calculated dynamics profile (see "Generation of Dynamics Profile" (p. 18)) and the
actual position (sensor feedback), runs through a PID servo algorithm (proportional
integral derivative).
▪ Dynamics profile corrections: The dynamics profile generated can be subject to an
offset correction and a feed-forward control of the velocity.
Regardless of the operating mode, the control value can be subjected to an additional
correction via the notch filter.
Servo algorithm
The servo algorithm uses the following servo control parameters. The optimum servo control
parameter setting depends on your application and your requirements; see "Optimizing Servo
Control Parameters" (p. 66).
