Autotuning via KNX5100C Software
Autotuning can be performed by using KNX5100C software. When the drive
and motor are connected, and the drive is online with the KNX5100C software,
follow these steps to autotune the drive. You can autotune with or without the
load attached. The autotune is effective when used with a Load:Motor inertia
ratio of less than 50:1 with a rigid load.
There are two options available that determine how the motor is commanded
to drive.
• Host controller plans the path and issues the command to drive the
motor
• Drive plans the path and issues the command to drive the motor
