| + | # Set the drive in Torque mode from [[Granity | Granity]]. |
− | # Set the drive in Torque mode from [[Granity | Granity]]/Goals tab. | + | # |
− | # Go to Granity/Testing tab. | + | |
− | # Make sure that the setpoint is zero and the drive is enabled and ready.
| + | |
− | # Set the {{param|TSP1}} Target setpoint 1 to 500.
| + | |
− | # Increase the target setpoint slowly by clicking the "Increment by TSP1" button and checking whether the motor moves of not.
| + | |
− | #*When setpoint reaches 16384 or greater, the maximum current is being delivered to motor. So further increase of setpoint will not have any effect.
| + | |
− | #*If drive stops into overvelocity fault, it typically means that system works properly. However, you may increase {{param|FVT}} enough to complete the test without overvelocity fault.
| + | |
− | # If the motor moves in a continuous manner, all parameters and wiring are correct.
| + | |
− | #* If the motor halts, click the "Set zero setpoint" button and follow the troubleshooting instructions below.

− | == Troubleshooting ==
| + | |
− | In most cases, the motor halts after a short movement if the feedback resolution is incorrect, or if it's direction is reversed.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | * Check wiring, especially logic and motor voltages, Enable, and STO.
| + | |
− | * Check [FBI] Invert feedback direction checkbox in Granity/Machine tab, and repeat the steps above.
| + | |
− | ** This inverts the encoder direction without the need for rewiring.
| + | |
− | * Check the motor pole count and encoder resolution from their datasheets.
| + | |
− | * Move the motor by known angle/distance, and check the position feedback reading from Granity/Testing tab.
| + | |
− | ** The Position feedback value in Granity/Testing tab is always in CPR (counts per revolution). From this, the correct PPR can be calculated for one revolution (PPR = CPR/4).

− | After the torque mode is configured and the motor can be controlled in torque mode properly, velocity and/or position modes can be tuned. Please refer to their respective instruction pages for further details.
