The display will now say “SET UP COMPLETE”, turn power off.
You can edit any existing spindle entry names and spindle constants. If so, you will need to complete
the steps until you are prompted to “Save New Spindle”. For example, if you have three special
spindles entered and need to modify the second spindle, you will need to proceed through the third
spindle parameters by pressing “Enter” until prompted to “Save New Spindle”. This will then save
the modified spindle.
II.4 Direct Speed Entry
At this point, the user may choose to enter a speed by the so-called direct speed entry method.
Enter a valid speed in the range of 0.01 to 250 RPM by pressing the numeric keys successively.
The previously blank line 3 on the default display screen records the user’s new speed input as
depicted in Figure II-17:
RPM: 0.0 SPINDLE: 31
TEMP: 72.1°F PRTN
ENTER NEW RPM: 11_
TORQUE = 0.0 %
Figure II-17
Here, the user intends to enter a speed of 112 RPM, has pressed the “1” key twice and is about
to press the “2” key. If the user makes more than five (5) key presses, the DV-III Ultra control
program will “roll” the cursor back to the first character of the field and begin to overwrite the
previous data entry.
Next the user presses the ENTER key to accept the speed. The motor will begin running at 112 RPM
