Run the configuration program by typing;

QDRIVE <Return>

The initial screen, shown below, appears asking for the password motor to be entered.

The program will allow changes to be made only if the password is correct, but will still

run if the password is incorrect to allow parameter monitoring only.

Figure 12. Q-Drive.exe: password entry page

The

QDRIVE.EXE

program presents the servo parameters using nine pages or screens.

The first three pages involve the setup of the servo-amplifier and the absolute position

of the resolver. The last page is used to monitor the inputs and alarm states. Only the

parameters on the first three pages can be modified through the computer program. In

order to change the parameters it is necessary to “Connect” to a particular drive. This

is achieved in the following way.

1 Press the <F8> function key to put the program “On-Line”, the program will

immediately start trying to communicate with drive 1.

2 If drive 1 is not connected then press function key <F4> to scan for active

drives, Figure 13. on page 35 shows the program scanning for drives and

finding drive 1. When the active drive has been identified use the procedure

in steps 3 to 5 to connect to it.

3 To change to the required drive press and hold down the <Shift> key and

then press a function key from <F1> to <F10>, this will access drives 1

through to 10.

4 To access drives 11 to 15 press and hold down the <Ctrl> key and then

press a function key from <F1> to <F5>

5 When the desired drive has been selected, the message near the top of the

screen will show “ONLINE Connected”
