Configure Your Electric Cylinder
Configure the electric cylinder by using the basic parameter settings described in this section.
Use the procedure appropriate for your motion axis.
Configure Your Servo Drive with RSLogix 5000 Software
Use the following procedure to configure the drive for your electric cylinder.
The procedure assumes the electric cylinder and the Kinetix 350, Kinetix 2000, Kinetix 6000,
Kinetix 6200, or Kinetix 6500 servo drive are installed and wired as one axis of the motion
system.
Drive Refer to:
Kinetix 350
Kinetix 2000
Kinetix 6000
Kinetix 6200
Kinetix 6500
Configure Your Servo Drive with RSLogix 5000 Software immediately below, and Tune Your Electric
Cylinder with RSLogix 5000 Software on page 36 .
Ultra3000 Configure Your Servo Drive with Ultraware Software on page 40 .
Kinetix 300 Configure Your Kinetix 300 Servo Drive with MotionView OnBoard on page 42
ATTENTION: Moving parts can cause injuries. Before running the electric cylinder, make sure all
components are secure and safe guards are in place to prevent access to the path of moving
machinery.
Safeguards should prevent access to the electric cylinder until all motion has stopped.
Check that the electric cylinder is clear of foreign matter and tools. Objects hit by the moving thrust
rod can become projectiles that can cause personal injury or damage to the equipment.
IMPORTANT You are responsible to verify that the servo control system safely controls the electric cylinder
with regard to maximum force, acceleration, and speed.
ATTENTION: Incorrect parameter settings may result in uncontrolled motion, with the potential
for damage to the electric cylinder.
Initiating a motion command on an electric cylinder with an incorrect Position mode setting may
result in damage to the electric cylinder, and the machine in which it is installed.
