2-1Control system of the HA-655 driver<br />

It is said that [plan, do, see] is essential to perform perfect<br />

jobs. In other words, the [plan, do, see] is the repeating<br />

Perfect job cycle<br />

cycle of commandactionresult feedbackmodified<br />

command action feedback . Plan Do See<br />

Driving machines precisely requires the same control as<br />

the above job cycle, that is [Motion commandrun<br />

feedbackmodified command].<br />

Feedback<br />

For example, assume the required motion is rotation to a<br />

target angle and stopping there. To perform the motion,<br />

the motor must be equipped with an angular sensor to<br />

detect a current <strong>position</strong>, and the <strong>position</strong> data must be<br />

compared with the command. If the <strong>position</strong> data is<br />

different than the command, the motor rotates until the<br />

<strong>position</strong> data becomes equal to the command. This is an<br />

example of a <strong>position</strong> servo system.<br />

The <strong>speed</strong> control system is the same. The motor is<br />

equipped with a <strong>speed</strong> sensor and the <strong>speed</strong> is compared<br />

with the <strong>speed</strong> command. If the <strong>speed</strong> is different from the<br />

command, the motor accelerates or decelerates until the<br />

motor <strong>speed</strong> becomes equal to the command. This is an<br />

example of the <strong>speed</strong> servo system.<br />

The HA -655 driver realizes above both controls of <strong>position</strong> and <strong>speed</strong> with the same unit.<br />

The fundamental configuration of servo system of the HA-655 driver is as follows:<br />

The HA-655 driver function is consists of three parts: the <strong>position</strong> control block, the <strong>speed</strong> control block,<br />

and the power amplifier.<br />

In the <strong>position</strong> <strong>mode</strong>, a command <strong>position</strong> from a host is compared to a feedback <strong>position</strong>. If there is a<br />

difference between them, the <strong>position</strong> control block commands the power amplifier through the <strong>speed</strong><br />

control block to flow current to the actuator until there is no difference.<br />

In the <strong>speed</strong> <strong>mode</strong>, a <strong>speed</strong> command is directly inputted to the <strong>speed</strong> control block. The <strong>speed</strong> block<br />

compares the command and current feedback <strong>speed</strong>. If there is a difference between them, the <strong>speed</strong><br />

control block commands to the power amplifier flow the current to the actuator until there is no<br />

difference.<br />

The HA-655 driver allows two types of encoder as a functional member of the feedback system,<br />

optionally: an incremental encoder or an absolute encoder.<br />
