The commercially available USB-serial converters have been successfully tested for OMRON Inverters but operation may be unstable in some operating environments (mainly depending on the ambient temperature, humidity, and noise). The functions, performance, and reliability of these converters may not be as specified under all possible conditions. Check the warranty information from the manufacturer.
Application Precautions
Observe the following precautions when using the CX-Drive.
• Confirm that set parameters operate properly before using them in actual applications.
• Do not turn OFF the power to the Servo Drive while writing to flash memory. In the worst case, doing so may damage the flash memory.
• After replacing an Inverter or Servo Drive, restart operation only after saving the required parameters in the new Inverter or Servo Drive.
• Confirm that no adverse effect will occur in the system before attempting any of the following. Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation.
• Changing the operating mode of the PLC (including changing the Startup Mode)
• Changing parameter settings
• Automatically downloading parameters (This function is enable by selecting the Autodownload when a parameter is updated Option on the
Online Options Tab Page in the window that appears when Tools -
Options is selected from the menu bar.)
• Do not turn OFF the power to the computer while installing or uninstalling the CX-Drive. Doing so may result in corrupted data in the computer.
• The multi-turn counter and alarms will be reset in the absolute serial encoder if the absolute encoder setting function is performed. If the absolute encoder’s multi-turn counter is reset to zero, the coordinate system of the mechanical system will change from what it was previously. Be sure that the encoder is set correctly before resetting the mechanical system to the zero point.
• The load will move back and forward during auto tune operation. Please consider what are the conditions you can stop this operation at anytime.
• The motor speed will have extreme variations during FFT analysis operation. Please consider what are the conditions you can stop this operation at anytime.
• The motor responsive will change during damping control operation.
Please consider what are the conditions you can stop this operation anytime.

Inverter and Servo parameters can be edited using parameter numbers or by category. Parameter editing tables show parameter ID numbers, descriptions, units, default values, and ranges in the same way as in the Servo manuals.
Parameters can be set using pull-down menus or by typing in settings.
Parameter settings can be easily reviewed because setting status (e.g., modified, warning, default, or disabled) is shown for each parameter to avoid setting mistakes.
When connected online, you can easily display drive parameters by using a comparison function. Also, the selected parameters can be downloaded to or uploaded from the drive as required.
Inverter parameters, such as V/F profiles and jump frequencies, can be displayed in graphic charts.
Drive parameters can be displayed in diagrams, such as PID diagrams or position/speed/torque block diagrams.
The connected drives can be detected automatically and displayed in a list without setting model numbers or connection types. Just select a drive to add it to the Workspace.

Inverter Tuning and
Test Runs
Auto-tuning for the 3G3RV
Section 1-1
Inverter Test Runs
Just enter the specified motor parameters and let the Servo automatically tune itself to match the characteristics of the motor.
The test run options enable the acceleration, deceleration, and frequency references of the motor to be determined for testing purposes. Additional options allow the motor to be run continuously or cycled for 'n' number of cycles. Forward or reverse operation and stopping are also possible, and the feedback input can be displayed.
The parameters can be set either by entering them directly into the appropriate fields or graphically by dragging handles in the Test Run Setup Diagram.

Realtime Tracing
The auto-tuning function calculates the load moment of inertia during operation of the Servo and sets parameters to achieve Servo gains that are consistent with the machine rigidity settings. These parameters can be saved in the
Servo and used the next time power is turned ON.
The test run options enable the jog speed, acceleration, and deceleration of the motor to be determined for testing purposes. Continuous operation, cyclic operation, origin searches, turning the Servo ON/OFF, forward/reverse direction selection, stopping, and speed display are also possible.
The parameters can be set either by entering them directly into the appropriate fields or graphically by dragging handles in the Test Run Setup Diagram.
The speed/torque offset can be adjusted automatically or manually, the offset and gain of the analog monitor output can be adjusted, and the current detection offset can be adjusted automatically or manually.
An absolute encoder and multi-turn limit can be set for the R88D-WT.
The low-frequency vibration when the motor starts/ stops can be reduced.
Note
The Real Time Monitor Window enables monitoring a specific set of parameters. The parameter values are displayed simultaneously in graphic and digital forms.
The graphic display shows the parameter values per unit time.
Online functions are supported for only one axis at a time.

2-5-7 Auto Tune
Section 2-5
With this function, you can automatically make gain adjustments so that the responsive to servo commands can satisfy the required performance of the machine.
Especially with the G5 Series (R88D-KT/R88D-KN), gain adjustments can be made automatically by simple operations according to the wizard.
When you select a mechanical system, make operation settings, and set completion conditions according to the wizard, the motor runs according to the settings and the optimum gain parameter values are automatically calculated.
Note
Enable the Test Run Mode to send a JOG command from CX-Drive during the execution of auto tune on the EtherCAT communications. Select Drive - Drive
