  • Page 29: Encoder Position Tuning

    Encoder position tuning Vector Vector Vector • Encoder position tuning is required when a PM motor with an encoder is driven. The measured offset value between the motor home magnetic pole position and the encoder home position is stored. Only encoder position tuning can be performed when offline auto tuning is not required, such as when the parameters for motor constant are set manually, or when offline auto tuning is already performed.
  • Page 30  Performing tuning POINT POINT • Before tuning, check the monitor display of the PU if the inverter is in the state ready for tuning. If the start command is turned ON though the inverter is not ready, the motor can start running. •...
  • Page 31 • When encoder position tuning ends, press on the operation panel during PU operation. In the external operation mode, turn OFF the start signal (STF signal or STR signal). This operation resets encoder position tuning, and the PU's monitor display returns to the normal indication. (Without this operation, next operation cannot be started.) NOTE •...
