There is a slightly difference between the 900er series and the new
advanced M16 system.
Before using the new system, please read this carefully !!!
Power-On:
Due the motor does not use commutator lines, the system has to check the
location of the index in the power-on procedure. The motor has to be
connected completely to the box (power- and encoder cable) before the
power is turned on! The motor will not work, if it is connected after the
power is already turned on. (old system: The motor can be connected any
time)
LCD- display box (Programmer)
To connect or disconnect the LCD- box, the power has to be turned off
to initialize the system after power-on
Going to the “Hidden Parameters” or “MASTER RESET”:
The same procedure as with the old system: Turn the power on by pressing
the desired buttons.
In some cases, when the power was completely off and is turned on, the LCD-
display stays blank for as couple of seconds. The reason is a longer RESET-
mode. In this case, turn on the power, wait until the display is initialized and
reads “OPERATING MODE”. Now turn the power off.
The display reads: “…..saving data” and then “goodbye, see you”
Before the display gets blank again, turn on the power and follow the
procedure to go to the “HIDDEN PARAMETER” or “MASTER RESET”
Set the Positions
This is similar to the old system using the mini motor. There is a ‘teach-in’
mode in the ‘hidden parameters’, group ‘ POSITIONS’.
Go to the desired parameter: ‘NEEDLE UP’, ‘NEEDLE DN’ or ‘TRIM”,
then turn the hand wheel to the desired position and press the NU-ND
button.
This will store the position. You can see the result in the display.
Caution:
You can not turn on the power and set the positions. The hand wheel has to
turn at least one revolution to know about the location of the index.
