Execution of a test run

Step 1: Preparation

1. Activate configuration.
Execution of a test run 1:
2. Click on the axis and select the "Online" tab.
Execution of a test run 2:
3. Move the motor shaft by hand to check the configuration of the encoder.
Does a relative movement of 360° actually correspond to a full revolution of the motor shaft?
If not: check the scaling factor. See chapter Configuration of the TwinCAT NC, section "Scaling Factor".

Step 2: Performing a test run

CAUTION

The motor may behave differently than expected

Injuries and damage to property are possible.

  • Before the test run, ensure that no one is injured during any movements of the motor shaft and that no damage is caused.
1. Release the controller: click "Set" and then click "All" in the window that appears.
Execution of a test run 3:
If the release fails: check whether 24 V are present at the input "HW Enable". See chapter Wiring.
2. Try different commands.
3. Check whether the motor follows the commands in a stable and reliable manner.

Step 3: Checking the result

Check the following points, for example:
