A-12 WebPak 3000 Drive Application Workbook, Version 1.1
• Drive regulator parameters used to setup and tune the selected control loops, such
as, proportional gain, integral gain, current limit, tension on, current memory on, etc.
All of these parameters are listed in the Application Workbook.
A.4.3 Entering the Parameter Values
Parameter values can be entered using either the OIM or the WebPakCS
configuration software.
The OIM enables you to:
• Enter parameter values
• Monitor drive status
• Monitor and change drive parameters
• Read and reset the drive fault and error log
• Control the drive (start, stop, etc.)
In addition to the above, the WebPakCS software enables you to:
• Create, store, upload, download and print drive configurations
• Display trace signals in the drive
Refer to the WebPak 3000 OIM User Guide (D2-3445) or the WebPakCS Software
Manual (D2-3447) for more information.
A.5 Operating Capabilities
The use of a closed loop regulator and drive to solve web handling application
presumes that the system design capabilities will support both steady-state and
dynamic operation within the defined machine parameters.
The WebPak 3000 drive, being a high response digital drive, expands the acceptable
range of machine parameters without compromising viable electromechanical drive
system performance.
However, expanded boundaries must be constrained by limits that reflect attainable
machine operation. Therefore, it becomes necessary to define these parameter limits
so the user is capable of maximizing drive system performance expectations.
It is recommended that the parameter limits as defined be used when setting
expectations for steady-state and dynamic drive performance. It is assumed that the
drive section sizing (horsepower rating, torque rating, and speed range) is consistent
with the requirements of the machine parameters.
A.5.1 Machine Parameter Limits
Limits on machine parameters may be set by either machine capabilities or drive
capabilities. Satisfying the limits of the machine does not necessarily satisfy the limits
of the drive, and vice versa.
