AX5000 Tuning-Guide - Version 1.0

Setting up TwinCAT Scope View

 
Use the function:
File → Add → New project
to add a "TwinCAT Measurement" project of type "Scope YT NC Project".
Right-click on the chart to add two axes, so that a total of three axes are available.
Notice!
If you have a sufficiently large monitor, right-click on the chart again and select "Stacked Axes" for a better overview.
The axes are then shown one below the other. Add the "Torque feedback value" (S-0-0084), the velocity command value and the actual velocity value (P-0-0504 and S-0-0040) to the AX5000 process data.
In the process image of the EtherCAT master activate the ADS server and the symbol generation facility.
Now reactivate the configuration.
Right-click on an axis in the oscilloscope and open the target browser.
Select:
the controller,
the ADS port,
the drive and the channel.
Use “drag and drop” to assign the signals to the oscilloscope axes, as shown (picture below).
The signal scaling is not important for determining the stability limit. To establish the relationship with the drive axis it may be useful to enter the scaling factors in the property window of the axis. The values can be taken from the "Scaling and NC Parameters" window in the TC DriveManager.
If you start the recording now, the oscilloscope should not issue an error message.

Nature and source of the danger!
