This integrated chip stores pertinent mechanical and electronic motor data such as serial number, type, parameters, and manufacturer specifications making the entire power transmission system clearly identifiable in the application program.
The drive reads the motor data from the encoder. With this data the encoder automatically determines the current control paramaters to guarantee optimal control of the motor. This substantially reduces the time and resources required for manual entry of motor data during commissioning; it also eleminates any margin for error.
Another advantage of the embedded parameter chip is that it supports automatic system configuration. Machine builders and end users can seamlessly field swap motors of varying performance without adjusting their program file or drive configuration.
Simplified diagnostics
The embedded chip acts as a thumbprint for motor parameters so they may be identifed and confirmed. When troubleshooting a drive system, the ability to promptly verify the accuracy of motor parameters allows users to quickly eliminate the motor as the issue and focus their diagnostic efforts elsewhere. The end result is efficient diagnostics and reduced downtime.
