Configuring Current Mode with 6-Step (Hall) Feedback

To configure the drive with 6-Step (Hall) Feedback, follow the wiring diagram below.

Torque Block with 6-Step Feedback Wiring

NOTE: The base S200 Drive must be in Torque/Current Mode when using 6-Step Feedback.

Setting Drive Parameters for 6-Step Operation

In 6-Step mode with Hall or Hall equivalent feedback, the drive can be configured either using the S200 Tools utility or the S1 and S2 switches. Configuring the drive with the S200 Tools provides the advantage of setting the drive's current limits and motor thermal protection. When using S200 Tools the configuration parameters should be saved to non-volatile memory to allow the configuration to be recalled on power up.

To configure the drive for 6-Step feedback set the following parameters:

Parameter	Value
CommMode (view)	SetupS2-2 (Default value) with switch S2-2 set to the up position labeled, 6 on the drive. or 6-Step
CommOff (view)	0 Degrees (Default Value)
OpMode (view)	SetupS2-1 (Default value) with switch S2-1 set to the down position labeled, I on the drive. or Torque/Current
KIP (view)	Set directly with the serial port when S1 is set to position 0. or Set S1 to the appropriate position for the inductance of the motor be used, refer to S1 Function with 6-Step Feedback.
I2TF0 (view)	Set to the motor’s thermal time constant.
I2TTrip (view)	Set to the motor’s continuous current rating.
ILmtPlus ILmtMinus (view)	Set to the lower of 100% or the percent of the motor’s peak current rating divided by the drive's peak current.
CmdSrc (view)	Sets the source of the command, analog, or command variable.
CmdGain (view)	Sets the command gain for the command input.
CmdOffset (view)	Sets the command offset for the command input.
CmdF0 (view)	Sets the filtering on analog input commands.
EnInhibitCW EnInhibitCCW (view)	Enables the hardware over travel limits.
