#Manually set torque setpoint (with Granity Testing page TSP1 value and Set Abs button) to produce some noticeable torque on motor (motor not rotate but will start holding position when current is increased). Typically 10-30% of motor rated torque is sufficient. | #Manually set torque setpoint (with Granity Testing page TSP1 value and Set Abs button) to produce some noticeable torque on motor (motor not rotate but will start holding position when current is increased).

#Motor pole count is twice as much as the number of snapping positions found in the previous step. I.e. if motor snaps 2 times per revolution, it means that motor has 4 magnetic poles. | #Motor pole count is twice as much as the number of snapping positions found in the previous step.

*If motor is too stiff to rotate, reduce current. | *If motor is too stiff to rotate, reduce current. | ||
*If snaps can't be felt, increase current to make them stronger. | *If snaps can't be felt, increase current to make them stronger. | ||
*If motor has internal brake, it must be electrically opened before the test. Usually such brakes open with 24VDC voltage to brake wires. Check motor specifications first, or use lower starting voltage if unknown. | *If motor has internal brake, it must be electrically opened before the test.
