1 How to update the firmware of a Technosoft drive/motor [GB/CM]

The firmware of a Technosoft drive/motor can be updated with the Firmware Programmer tool included in the EasyMotion Studio package. Remark: The firmware programming procedure can be executed only if the firmware present on the drive/motor is compatible with…

2 User variables defined in a TML program - [GB]

The address of a user variables is automatically set in the order of declaration starting with 0x03B0 up to 0x03FF (80 words). First variable takes address 0x3B0, next one 0x3B1, etc. The user variables type can be: integer, fixed (point) or long (integer).…

3 How to restore an EasyMotion Studio project archive [GB]

A TML project archive is a package which contains all the files required to use the project, archived in a ".m.zip" file. The file is saved by default in the Archives folder, from the EasyMotion Studio installation folder (by default C:\Program Files\Technosoft\ESM\Archives).…

4 Can I connect two motors in parallel? [GB]

A Technosoft drive can control only one motor. Two motors cannot be controlled simultaneous (in parallel) because of the circulating currents (which cannot be controlled), thus decreasing the efficiency of the system, overheating the motor and making impossible…

5 The relationship between the speed resolution and the SLOW LOOP sampling period [II]

In speed control, the speed resolution in case of an incremental encoder feedback depends on the encoder resolution and on the slow loop sampling period. The minimum speed that can be controlled (1 IU/sampling) can be computed using the following formula:…

6 How to archive a TML project in EasyMotion Studio [GB]

A project archive is a package which contains all the files necessary to use the TML project. When the archive is created, EasyMotion Studio will include apart from project file any other files required to run the TML project which are stored in various folders…

7 Speed limitation causes with open loop step motors

In some cases, the motor may not achieve the imposed speed, even it is lower than the nominal speed of the motor. Below are presented the main reasons that can cause the m otor speed limitation. 1. Bad tuning - if current controller parameters is not done…
