Gain Switching

The gain switching function is only effective in position and speed control mode and can be triggered by the internal state of the servo or external DI. Using gain switching can have the following effects:

When the motor is enabled to be stationary, the position latched state can be switched to a lower gain to suppress vibration and reduce static noise;

During the motor stop process, when the position is set, it can be switched to a higher gain to shorten the positioning time;

It is possible to switch to a higher gain during motor operation to achieve better command tracking performance;

Different gain settings can be switched through external signals based on the load device situation.

Give an example:

In the application scenario of LED die bonder, there is a demand for high-speed, high-precision and high response servo, which is a typical application of fast positioning P2P. The gain switching function is adopted to ensure fast setting requirement and reduce the noise when the servo is enabled to be stationary.

Parameter group Steps for gain switching adjustment Not using gain switching, adjust the gain manually   The second gain is set the same as base gain   Enable gain switching function   In static state, adjust the first group of gain parameters, eliminate static noise

SV3 servo supports the following 10 gain switching methods, including 1 external DI switching and 9 switching methods upon internal motion status of the servo:

0: The first gain is fixed (PS)

1: Use external DI for switching (PS)

2: Torque instruction (PS)

3: Speed instruction (PS)

4: Speed instruction change rate (PS)

5: High/low speed threshold of speed instruction (PS)

6: Position deviation (P)

7: With position instruction (P)

8: Positioning is incomplete (P)

9: Actual speed (P)

10: With position instruction + actual speed (P)

Herein, (P) represents that that switching method only supports position control mode; (PS) represents that the switching method supports both position control and speed control modes. Below is the detailed instructions about the 9 internal switching methods of the servo.

Gain switching method Switching method change diagram
2: Torque instruction  
3: Speed instruction
4: Speed instruction change rate
5: High/low speed threshold of speed instruction
6: Position deviation
7: Position instruction
8: Positioning is completed
9: Actual speed
10: With position instruction + actual speed Combination of method 7 and method 9 is generally chosen to ensure fast and stable setting in place

The delay time '06-12h' is only valid when the second gain is switched into the first gain.
