Test the Axes
Follow these steps to test the axes.
1. Verify the load was removed from each axis.
2. In your Motion Group folder, right-click an axis and choose Properties.
The Axis Properties dialog box appears.
3. Select the Hookup Tests category.
4. In the Test Distance field, enter the desired test distance.
The Position Units are defined in Axis Properties>Scaling category.
ATTENTION: To avoid personal injury or damage to equipment, you
must remove the load from each axis as uncontrolled motion can
occur when an axis with an integral motor brake is released during
the test.
Hookup Test Definitions
Marker
Verifies marker detection capability as you manually rotate the motor shaft. The
test completes when the drive either detects the marker or when the motor moves
the distance specified in the Test Distance field. If the marker remains undetected
and the test completes successfully, it means the motor moved the full test
distance. If the marker remains undetected and the test fails, the motor did not
move the full test distance. Run this test after running the Motor Feedback and
Motor and Feedback tests.
Commutation
Verifies the commutation offset and commutation polarity of the motor. This test
applies to third-party or custom permanent-magnet motors equipped with (TTL
with Hall and Sine/Cosine with Hall) incremental encoders that are not available as
a catalog number in the Motion Database. See Commutation Test on page
page 437.
Motor Feedback
Verifies feedback connections are wired correctly as you manually rotate the
motor shaft. The test completes when the drive determines that the motor moved
the full distance specified in the Test Distance field. Run this test before the Motor
and Feedback Test to verify that the feedback can be read properly.
Motor and
Feedback
Verifies motor power and feedback connections are wired correctly as the drive
commands the motor to rotate. Because the drive is rotating the motor, this test
requires full bus power to run. Run the Motor Feedback test before running this
test to verify that the feedback is being read correctly.
