Main motor
On the inverter (master inverter) for the main motor, specify either the speed control or pulse train position
control mode.
On the inverter (slave inverter) for the sub-motor, specify the pulse train position control mode.
<Example of settings>
- Main motor: Encoder pulse-per-revolution (PPR) setting = 1024 (pulses)
- Sub-motor: Encoder pulse-per-revolution (PPR) setting = 3000 (pulses)
- Ratio of main motor speed to sub-motor speed: 2:1
To operate the motors under the above conditions, adjust the parameters on the slave inverter as follows:
Pulse train mode setting (P013): 00 (90º-phase-shift pulse train)
Electronic gear set position selection (P019): 01 (REF)
Electronic gear ratio numerator setting (P020): 3000
Electronic gear ratio denominator setting (P021): 1024 x 2 = 2048
The table below lists the examples of the ratio of main motor speed to sub-motor speed according to the
settings of "P019" to "P021" (on the assumption that the encoder pulse-per-revolution (PPR) setting of
"1024" should be set on both inverters).
