Set Drive Parameters
Basic drive parameters need to be set before the drive can start driving machining movement.
Different control systems require different settings.
Set Drive Parameters in Non-bus Control Systems
Different servo drive parameters need to be set in different follow control modes:
- Set Drive Parameters in Position Loop Control Mode
- Set Drive Parameters in Velocity Loop Control Mode
If you are using a non-WEIHONG drive (WISE):
Ensure that the servo drive SON signal is active low (ON when connected to GND of a 24V power supply).
If the servo drive is active low when it works normally, set the polarity of the drive alarm input port to NC. If the servo drive is active low when it reports an alarm, set the polarity of the drive alarm input port to NO.
Set the drive pulse signal type parameter to pulse + direction.
Ensure that the servo drive does not have an external emergency stop signal input port. If it does, check the signal logic.
Ensure that the terminal board is connected to a 24V power supply before drive trial run.

Set Drive Parameters in Velocity Loop Control Mode
Test parameter settings in velocity loop control mode as shown below:
- WISE
- Yaskawa Σ- 7
- Panasonic MINAS A5
- Fuji ALPHA 5
To make the motor output rated rotational speed under 10V voltage in velocity loop control mode, parameters need to be set differently from that in position loop control mode, as shown below (taking a screw pitch of 10 mm as an example):
Parameter | WISE | Yaskawa Σ- 7 | Panasonic MINAS A5 | Fuji ALPHA 5 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Control mode selection | Pr001=2 | Pn000=0 | Pr0.01=1 | PA1_01=1 |
Command pulse number | Pr011=2500 | Pn212=2500 | Pr011=2500 | PA1_08=250 |
Motor rotational speed under 10V | Pr302=300 | Pn300=1000 | Pr3.02=300 | PA3-31=10 |
The parameter Motor rotational speed under 10V is available only in velocity loop control mode.
Set Drive Parameters in Bus Control Systems
Parameter setting methods vary based on the servo drive brand. This section mainly introduces how to set basic parameters and station addresses of WISE drive and Yaskawa ∑5 / ∑7 drives.
Set Common Drive Parameters
Two methods are available for you to set the drive parameters:
Drive front panel. For details, see the drive user manual.
NcEditor software.
Follow the steps below to set drive parameters in NcEditor:
In the menu, click System > Drive Parameters to open the Driver Param window:
Click Refresh to update the drive parameters.
Double-click the target parameter to set it.
Basic parameters that need setting in NcEditor are shown below. Refer to the user manual of the drive brand to set other parameters.
Yaskawa drives:
- Pn00B function selection basic switch B: 0000 (three-phase)/0100 (single-phase)
- Pn50A input signal selection 1: 8881
- Pn50B input signal selection 2: 8888
- Pn50E output signal selection 1: 0000
- Pn50F output signal selection 2: 0100
- Pn510 output signal selection 3: 0000
- Pn514 output signal selection 4: 0000
WISE drives: Pr001 Control mode setting: 1 (position control)
Set Station Address
By setting the station address, information can be transferred between the software, Lambda controller, and drive.
Station address of each axis drive is unique and has to be consistent with the value of the corresponding station address parameter in NcEditor for V15. If its station address parameter is set to 0, the communication function is disabled.
Set Station Address for Yaskawa Drives
Set the station addresses for Yaskawa drives by using two types of switches on the drive:
Flip switches: Four small switches numbered 1–4 for setting of ON/OFF.
Rotation switch: Rotate the switch to select from 0–9.
Follow the steps below to set station addresses for Yaskawa drives:
Set flip switch 1–4 to ON, ON, OF, and OFF respectively to enable bus functions.
Rotate the rotation switch to select a number as the station address.
Note: Select station addresses for the axes in sequence (for example, 1 for X axis, 2 for Y axis, and 3 for Z axis, etc.).
Open NcEditor. Set the axis station address parameters to the values set by the drive rotation switch.
Set Station Address for WISE Drives
Set the station addresses for WISE drives by using the drive front panel.
Follow the steps below to set station addresses for WISE drives:
Set Pr001 Control mode setting to 1.
Set the station addresses:
If reset is displayed, the station address is set successfully.
Power off and restart the drive to make the setting take effect.
If Error is displayed, the station address setting has failed. Restart the drive and try again.
Open NcEditor. Set the axis station address parameters to the values set by the drive front panel.
