Execution of a test run

Step 1: Preparation

1. Activate the 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 rotation of the motor shaft?

If not: check the scaling factor. See chapter Encoder.

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 nobody is injured and no damage is caused by any movements of the motor shaft.

1. Enable the axis: click on "Set" and click on "All" in the window that appears.
Execution of a test run 3:

If the enable fails: check whether one of the digital inputs is configured as "Hardware enable" (8012:32, 8012:36) and whether this input is set accordingly.

2. Try out different movement commands.

3. Check that the motor is stable and reliably follows the specifications.
