SIXpack 2 – manual (V1.01 / May 5
The direction of the motors rotation is in standard configuration identical to the linear mode. Movements
with rising coordinates lead to clockwise rotation and with falling coordinates to counter clockwise
rotation.
If the flag MT_OPTIMIZEWAY = 1 (command SetMotorParameters) is set the SIXpack 2 chooses the
shortest way to get to the target position from the starting position.
6.7 Control of motor current
To provide an always sufficient torque or holding torque with the lowest use of power an individual
configuration of the motor currents is possible.
The maximum coil current IMax is set with the command SetMaxCurrent (CMD $10). Please check the
DIP-switches of the SIXpack 2, also (refer to 5.2.7).
Also the command SetCurrentControl (CMD $11) provides the possibility to adept to the actual
movement. In the variables a percentage grading can be defined.
EXAMPLE:
Current
while acceleration
while at constant velocity
at target position
after expiration of PowerDownDelay
To lower the current consumption unused motors should be set to the value of a power down current of
zero (PowerDownCurrent = 8).
MT_NULLLEFT = 0: 0 ≤ position value < Poslimit
MT_NULLLEFT = 1: - ( Poslimit ) < position value ≤ 0
