Important information for commissioning
WARNING | |
Caution - Risk of injury! Electronic equipment is not fail-safe. The machine manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that the connected motors and the machine are brought into a safe state in the event of a fault in the drive system. |
Please be aware each time before commissioning the AX5000 that connected motors can make uncontrolled movements, which cannot always be prevented even by the AX5000’s integrated diagnostic system, or may permit uncontrolled movements until the diagnostic system responds. Analyze your system and take suitable precautions to prevent damage being caused by these uncontrolled movements.
Potential causes of uncontrolled movements:
The diagnostic system of the AX5000 is equipped with complex plausibility checks, which constantly monitor installation, operation, parameterization and operation and, if necessary, interrupt them with a diagnostic message. The parameters listed below are monitored by default, although it is not possible to cover all eventualities.
- Incorrect commutation results (e.g. on wake & shake), please note chapter Commutation techniques--> Commutation error "F2A0".
- Take special care with third-party motors: When a motor or encoder is replaced or when a different SysMan file (.TSM) is used, always execute the command "P-0-0166" without load connection and analyze the result. If necessary, adjust the commutation offset, as described in the chapter on the commutation process.
- Input of invalid parameters
- Measuring transducer and/or signal transducer defective or incorrectly adjusted
- Cables defective or not adequately shielded
- Incorrectly attached sensors
CAUTION | |
Increased attention in the case of vertical axes! When commissioning vertical axes, the risk consideration described above is to be carried out with particular care. An uncontrolled movement can mean the sudden falling down of a load in this case. |
