Motor Tests and Autotune Procedure
You can perform three types of tests to identify motor parameters and one test
for motor/system inertia. These parameters are used by sensorless-vector
frequency-control and induction motor closed-loop modes. Table 95
recommends which test to use based on the control mode and application.
For motor/system autotune procedure, see Tune Induction Motors on page 140
for more information.
The Motor > Analyzer category offers three choices for calculating or
measuring electrical motor data.
Follow these steps to run motor tests and identify motor parameters.
1. In the Controller Organizer, right-click an axis and choose Properties.
2. Select the Motor > Analyzer category.
