Autotune Velocity Settings
Posted: Thu Feb 07, 2019 7:51 am
Hello,
I am able to set the velocity in IonMotion (PWM Settings) without a problem in both directions. I am also able to read the current (quadrature) encoder value and speed value (around +-840).
I then tried to control my motor with the python library using the "SpeedM1(adress, 200)" function.
The motor turned at full speed, but was able to stop with "SpeedM1(adress, 0)"
I've read in the documentation, that I have to tune the velocity settings first.
While doing it, the first rotations of the motor were smooth, but after a short period (near the end of the autotune) the motor start making "cracky" noises. Like the gear is getting damaged.
The autotune-function tells me I have 734 QPS , 34929,66863 P, 4840,46089 I and 0.000 D.
Turning the motor now with the velocity control in IonMotion also makes the motor generating this noise.
Turning the motor in PWM mode still works fine.
Turning the motor with "SpeedM1(adress, 200)" now makes it turn at 200, but I still get the noises.
Can you help me out? What could be the reason behind these crackling noises?
Thanks in advance
