Control in manual mode

Once manual mode has been successfully activated, you can control the MOVIMOT® drive using the controls in the "Manual mode" window of MOVITOOLS® MotionStudio.

  1. Use the slider [2] in the "Control" group to set the variable setpoint speed.
  2. Use the buttons [clockwise] [6] or [counterclockwise] [5] to specify the direction of rotation..
  3. Click on the [Start] button [3] to enable the MOVIMOT® drive.
    • The motor axis [4] shown in the "Control" group symbolizes the direction of rotation and the speed of the motor.
  4. Use the [Stop] [8] button to stop the drive.

Alternatively, you can enter the setpoints for rapid speed, creep speed or variable speed setpoint directly in the "Setpoints" group [1].

The direction of rotation is defined by the sign (positive = clockwise rotation, negative = counterclockwise rotation).

First enter the setpoint. Press <ENTER> and click on the button that contains the setpoint input field to enable the MOVIMOT® drive.

The group "Actual values" [10] displays the following actual values of the MOVIMOT® drive:

  • MOVIMOT® inverter status
  • Motor speed in min-1
  • Output current of the MOVIMOT® inverter in [%] of IN

On MOVIMOT® drives with a brake, you can release the brake even without drive enable by activating the "Brake release" check box [9].

INFORMATION

The brake can only be released without drive enable if:
  • DIP switch S2/2 = ON
  • Or this function is enabled via parameter P738
