Motor Model page

How do I open the Motor Model page?
  1. In the
    Controller Organizer
    , expand the
    Motion Groups
    folder, and double-click an axis.
  2. From the
    Axis Properties
    dialog box, in
    Categories
    , select
    Motor
    .
  3. Select
    Model
    .
Use the
Motor Model
page to configure settings for the specific model of the motor.
NOTE:
  • The parameters available on the page depend on the
    Motor Type
    selection on the
    Motor
    page.
  • The motor and the motor type determine the default values.
  • The controls are available when the
    Data Source
    on the
    Motor
    page is set to
    Nameplate Datasheet
    and
    Motor Type
    is not set to
    Not Specified
    .
