Hello Everyone!!!
It has been a bit, but eight years later I am working on another build. Nothing extremely fancy just basic features. I thought I would use components that I had to save some money.
Controller: CSMIO/IP-A
Drives: Mitsubishi MR-J2S-20A
Motors: Mitsubishi HC-KFS23( Some with gear reducers, other not)
Control System: Mach3 possibly Mach4
Having used the CSMIO controller in a couple of other projects, machine wiring and I/O was pretty straight forward. So I currently have my drawing and everything readily mapped out for whichever control system I decide to use.
Now this is my first attempt at analogue control with servos. I have used Yaskawa with step/dir control with great success. However I do not remember spending so much time with my head buried in a servo manual. So the analog controller is monitoring the encoder pulses. However there are several parameters that have to be set accordingly in the amplifier.
Motor output is 131,072 pulses/rev.
Electronic gearing not relevant in Speed Mode based on what I read.(see attached snippet)
However parameter 27(attached snippet) allows for encoder pulse output modifications
Parameter 54 allows to actually use a dividing count thereof.
I am trying to figure out what all my step values per pulse are going to be, but not really understanding completely what the end values will be based amplifier output pulse. I assume that the amplifier encoder output pulse is the signal that will end up at my controller. I have a target value pusle/rev that the controller likes and best I can tell I can accommodate that. If some one could further explain the attached parameters so I can better understand it would greatly appreciated.
Also is anyone currently using the drives and controller setup.
Thanks!!!
