Applications, characteristics 2 Applications For SINAMICS, the OA application "polygonal line" (POLYGON) is an expansion for the SERVO, VECTOR, and HLA drive objects. The polygonal line application makes it possible to create a master-value-dependent output signal based on a parameterized characteristic in the current controller sampling time (or an integer multiple of the current controller sampling time). The characteristics is defined by up to 10000 equidistantly distributed interpolation points between which linear interpolation is performed. The y-values of the interpolation points can be taken from an Excel sheet using a script. By interconnecting the output signals to different connector inputs, it is possible to create the different relationships via the characteristic functionality, e.g.: Position-position reference Position-speed reference Position-torque reference For example, for the following applications: Generation of special signal shapes together with the OA application SETPGEN, which generates the setpoint. Compensation for dead times and transfer function of speed setpoint oscillation. Encoder actual value as the master value for operating on a user-defined torque profile. Drive-integrated cam. Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641 13

2 Applications, characteristics Characteristics Application of the master value and calculation of the output signal in the current controller sampling time or in discrete integer multiples of the current controller sampling time. Specification of the master value as an integer via a connector input. By default, the encoder position actual value Gn_XIST1 (r0479[0]) is interconnected to this input. Conversion of the master value into a length or angle unit that is suitable for the application via a rational scaling factor (integer numerator / integer denominator). This scaling factor also considers the gear ratio of a gear unit, if there is one, (gear factor). Definition of a reference point possible by taking over a setting value. Periodic repetition of the master value on rotary axes by specifying a modulo length. Dynamic master value offset possible via a connector input. 3 Fixed values available for the static interconnection of the master value, setting value, or master value offset. Generation of the output signal via parameterizable characteristic with up to 10000 interpolation points, which are distributed equidistantly over the modulo length. The characteristic is defined by the number of interpolation points and their y-values. Interpolation is performed linearly between the interpolation points. Takeover of the y-values of the interpolation points from an Excel sheet possible using a script. Dynamic scaling of the output value via connector inputs: By specifying a factor (amplitude) By specifying an offset Provision of the scaled output signal via connector outputs for further interconnection as a percentage or integer. These connector outputs can, for example, be interconnected with connector inputs or analog outputs inside the controller.

4 Function description and commissioning 4.1 How POLYGON works 4.1 How POLYGON works The OA application POLYGON allows you to generate an output signal depending on a master value via a characteristic. The characteristic is defined via interpolation points. The master value is typically an encoder position actual value Gn_XIST1 (r0479[0]). In this case, the position actual value depends on the number of encoder pulses p0408 and the fine resolution p0418. With parameters p31235 and p31236, the encoder position actual value Gn_XIST1 is converted to a length or angle unit suitable for the application, e.g. millidegrees ( / 1000) for rotary movements. If a gear unit is interposed between the motor or encoder and the load, the gear ratio is also considered in these parameters. A certain position actual value can be specified at a reference point by applying a setting value. A periodic signal is generated by defining a modulo length p31244. Via the master value offset, a specific phase offset can be set during run time, for example, to consider the transfer function of the mechanical structure. The characteristic if defined by up to 10000 equidistant interpolation points (p31245, POLYGON characteristic number of interpolation points). The y-values are stored in p31246[0 n] (POLYGON characteristic y-value). Interpolation is performed linearly between the interpolation points. The y-values of the interpolation points can be taken from an Excel sheet using a script. Any signal shape can be stored. The output amplitude can be freely scaled. Superimposition of multiple characteristics is possible. In this way, additional signals can be superimposed on a useful signal. These additional signals can be generated, for example: With the OA application POLYGON as master-value-dependent additional signals, i.e. depending e.g. on the momentary angle of rotation. With the OA application SETPGEN as time-dependent additional signals that are independent of a master value. The resulting signal can, for example, be interconnected as a torque, speed, or position actual value. 4.1.1 Commissioning The following description of the functionality also describes the normal sequence for commissioning the POLYGON. The "Examples of scaling the master value in POLYGON" (Page 36) and the "Examples for characteristics for POLYGON" (Page 40) are also used as a commissioning guide. The installed OA application POLYGON is also transferred with the "Load to file system" function. This can be used for a series commissioning. 30 Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641

Licensing is required, see "Licensing" (Page 49). Configuration The configuration of the POLYGON is shown in the following function diagrams: "7331 POLYGON structure" (Page 60). The settings required for the configuration are as follows: 1. Setting the sampling time for POLYGON The sampling time is set as a multiple of the current controller sampling time (p0115[0]). The permissible sampling times are listed in detail in the description of p31230, see "List of parameters" (Page 53). 2.

4 Function description and commissioning 4.1 How POLYGON works 4.1.2 Conditioning the master value Interconnecting the signal source for the master value The connector input p31234 is interconnected to the signal source provided by the master value. The master value source must provide the master value as an integer (data type Integer32). Typical BICO connections include: Master value of a real axis CI: p31234 = r0479[0] (diagnosis encoder position actual value Gn_XIST1, encoder 1) Note After startup, after data set switchover, or after park encoder, the following applies: The new value may only be available after several 100 ms at connecter inputs that are interconnected with connector output r0479[0]. Virtual master value based on OA application SETPGEN CI: p31234 = r31222 (SETPGEN output total integer) Virtual master value based on the function module EPOS (r0108.4 = 1) CI: p31234 = r2665 (EPOS position setpoint) Scaling the master value The purpose of scaling is to represent the master value in a length or angle unit that is suitable for the application. For rotary movements, the position actual value is best represented in angle units. Because of the higher resolution, it is advisable to choose millidegrees ( / 1000) as the unit. The scaling factors p31235 and p31236 will then contain the following values: p31235 (POLYGON master value scaling numerator): The numeric value for 1 revolution is assigned to this parameter in the chosen angle unit. With millidegrees as the unit, 360000 millidegrees corresponding to one revolution, i.e. p31235 = 360000. p31236 (master value scaling denominator): In the case of rotary encoders, the numeric value for 1 revolution is assigned to this parameter in encoder increments. This value depends on the resolution of the encoder used, which is specified in the following parameters: p0408[0] (rotary encoder pulse number) p0418[0] (fine resolution Gx_XIST1 (in bits)) The number of encoder increments per revolution is p0408[0] 2 p0418[0], i.e. p31236 = p0408[0] 2 p0418[0]. With a virtual master value based on the OA application SETPGEN, p31236 must be chosen in accordance with the parameterization of SETPGEN. With a virtual value based on the function module EPOS, the value of r2524 (LU/revolution) can be assigned to parameter p31236. 32 Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641

4 Function description and commissioning 4.1 How POLYGON works Note Internally, the scaled master value is represented in data type FloatingPoint to minimize rounding differences. Referencing using the setting value The setting value and its application provides a way of defining a reference point. The setting value is defined in the length or angle units chosen by the user; the corresponding numeric value is, for example, stored in the fixed value p31241[0 2]. The connector input p31238 (POLYGON master value setting value) is interconnected with the signal source of the setting value (factory setting p31241[0]). The setting value is applied with a 0/1 signal at the binector input p31239. The setting value will be used for future changes to the scaled master value once it has been applied (master value after setting value = scaled master value + setting value scaled master value on application of the setting value). Modulo calculation Modulo calculation permits periodic repetition of the master value for rotary axes. The modulo length depends on the periodic lengths of the master value and the output signal. It is defined in the length or angle unit chosen by the user. The corresponding numeric value is entered in p31244 (POLYGON modulo length). By default, p31244 = 360000, that is the modulo length corresponds to one revolution in the unit millidegrees. If the period lengths of the master value and the output signal are different, p31244 must be modified accordingly. For example, the torque characteristic of a cylinder in a 4-stroke internal combustion engine only repeats after 2 revolutions. In this case, the modulo length must be set to 2 revolutions, that is, p31244 = 720000. The effective master value after modulo generation is displayed at the connector output r31242[0] (POLYGON master value active, master value before position offset). Master value offset The master value offset via the connector input p31240 (POLYGON master value offset) permits dynamic phase offset of the master value on rotary axes. The master value offset is defined in the length or angle unit chosen by the user. For static setting of the master value offset, one of the fixed values p31241[0 2] can be used. The effective master value after master value offset is displayed at the connector output r31242[1] (POLYGON master value active, master value after position offset).

4 Function description and commissioning 4.1 How POLYGON works 4.1.3 Parameterizing the characteristic Define interpolation points The characteristic is defined via interpolation points. Number of interpolation points: The number of interpolation points is defined in p31245 (POLYGON characteristic number of interpolation points). The interpolation points are equidistantly distributed over the modulo length. For the following effective master values, the interpolation points are therefore at: modulo length i p31245, where i : number of the interpolation point, i [ 0, ( p31245 1) ] y-values of the interpolation points The y-values of the interpolation points are defined in p31246[0 n] (POLYGON characteristic y-value). Interpolation is performed linearly between the interpolation points. Note The number 1.0 corresponds to 100 %. This means that, for example, for interconnection as a torque setpoint, a torque of p2003 (reference torque) is specified. The upper limit of the dynamic index is determined by p31245 (POLYGON characteristic number of interpolation points): n = p31245 1. Importing interpolation points from an Excel sheet With a large number of interpolation points, manual entry in parameter p31245[1 n] is difficult and error-prone. The values are often calculated or measured values that are already available in a table. The scripting functionality of the commissioning tool (e.g. STARTER) allows you to edit such tables if they are in the format of the Excel spreadsheet program. Appendix "Defining a characteristic (p31245, p31246[0 n]) with script" (Page 73) contains a script by way of example that takes over values from a column of an Excel sheet and writes them into the specified parameters. Defining the amplitude and offset The characteristic can be dynamically scaled via the connector inputs p31247 (POLYGON amplitude) and p31248 (POLYGON offset). If these connector inputs are not interconnected, their factory settings will apply (1 for p31247 or 0 for p31248). 34 Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641

4 Function description and commissioning 4.1 How POLYGON works Interconnecting outputs The scaled output signal is available for further interconnection at the following connector outputs: in r31249 (POLYGON output) as the percentage value. This connector output can be interconnected as follows, for example: With connector inputs inside the closed-loop control, e.g.: Supplementary setpoint (CI: p1075[c]) Supplementary torque (CI: p1511[c]) Speed controller P gain adaptation signal (CI: p1455[c]) Speed controller P gain scaling (CI: p1466[c] With connector inputs of other OA applications, e.g. SETPGEN signal shape amplitude (CI: p31212[0 2]) SETPGEN signal shape offset (CI: p31214[0 2]) With connector inputs of the OA application POLYGON on another drive object, e.g. POLYGON amplitude (CI: p31247) POLYGON offset (CI: p31248) With analog outputs, e.g.: TM31 analog outputs, signal source (CI: p4071[0 1]) in r31251 (POLYGON output integer) as an integer in format Integer32. To improve the resolution, the signal can first be scaled with p31250 (POLYGON output integer scaling). To enable the outputs, the binector input p31231 (POLYGON enable) must be interconnected with a 1 signal Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641 35

4 Function description and commissioning 4.2 Examples of scaling the master value in POLYGON 4.2 Examples of scaling the master value in POLYGON For real axes, the encoder position actual value Gn_XIST1 (r0479[0]) is usually used as the master value. For this purpose, the connector input p31234 (POLYGON master value raw value) is interconnected to r0479[0]. The purpose of scaling is to represent the master value in a length or angle unit that is suitable for the application. 4.2.1 Example 1 rotary axis with incremental encoders without a gear unit For rotary movements, the position actual value is best represented in angle units. Because of the higher resolution, it is advisable to choose millidegrees ( / 1000) as the unit. The scaling factors p31235 and p31236 will then contain the following values: p31235 (POLYGON master value scaling numerator): 1 Revolution corresponds to 360000 millidegrees p31236 (master value scaling denominator): The numeric value for 1 revolution is assigned to this parameter in the chosen angle unit. This value depends on the resolution of the encoder used: p0408[0] (rotary encoder pulse number) p0418[0] (fine resolution Gx_XIST1 (in bits)) 1 Revolution corresponds to p0408[0] 2 p0418[0]. The scaling factors for a sin/cos encoder with 512 pulses/revolution and a fine resolution of 11 bits are shown in the following table: Table 4-1 Scaling of the master value for a rotary axis with incremental encoders without a gear unit Parameter Parameter name Value Comment p0408[0] Rotary encoder pulse number 512 p0418[0] Fine resolution Gx_XIST1 (in bits) 11 Corresponds to fine resolution 2048 p31234 POLYGON master value raw value r0479[0] Interconnection with encoder position actual value G1_XIST1 p31235 POLYGON master value scaling numerator 360000 1 revolution corresponds to 360000 millidegrees p31236 POLYGON master value scaling denominator 1048576 1 revolution corresponds to p0408[0] 2 p0418[0] = 512 2 11 =2 20. p31244 POLYGON modulo length 360000 1 revolution p31244 (POLYGON modulo length) permits periodic repetition of the master value for rotary axes. By default p31244 = 360000, that is, the modulo length corresponds to one revolution. If the period lengths of the master value and the output signal are different, p31244 must be modified accordingly. 36 Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641

The following table shows the scaling factors: Motor encoder is a sin/cos encoder with 512 pulses/revolution and a fine resolution of 11 bits, corresponding to "Example 1 rotary axis with incremental encoders without a gear unit" (Page 36). A gear unit with the following gear factor is additionally installed between the motor and the load: 7 revolutions of the motor cause 3 revolutions of the load.

Referencing must be performed when the axis is stopped. General procedure: The setting value is defined in the length or angle units chosen by the user; the corresponding numeric value is, for example, stored in the fixed value p31241[0 2]. The connector input p31238 (POLYGON master value setting value) is interconnected with the signal source of the setting value (factory setting p31241[0]).

Fig. 4-3 Example of a sinusoidal function with 1200 interpolation points per 360 4.3.2 Example 6 superimposition of multiple characteristics The OA application POLYGON can be parameterized on multiple drive objects. This makes it possible to define individual frequencies separately. Generation and superimposition of 2 master-value-dependent signals are shown below. On drive object SERVO_02, the measured torque characteristic of a 4-cylinder 4-stroke internal combustion engine is stored. Number of measurement points: 1264. The modulo length corresponds to 2 revolutions ( = 720 ). A sinusoidal oscillation is parameterized on drive object SERVO_03. The aim is to generate 12 sine oscillations within the modulo length of the torque characteristic. The modulo length of the sine oscillation is therefore 1/12 of the modulo length of the torque characteristic ( = 60 ). The following tables show the parameterization of the torque characteristic and the sine oscillation. Scaling of the master values is performed identically on both drive objects and analogously to the examples in Section "Examples of scaling the master value in POLYGON" (Page 36). In particular, p31234 (POLYGON master value raw value) is interconnected to the same signal source (same drive object). 42 Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641

4 Function description and commissioning 4.3 Examples for characteristics for POLYGON 4.3.3 Example 7 - compensation of transfer function and dead times In the case of known setpoint signals that have a sinusoidal curve, amplitude and phase deviations in the leading behavior can be compensated for. The following figure shows the leading frequency response of a moderately set speed controller in the form of a Bode diagram: Fig. 4-6 Measured frequency response of a speed controller In this Bode diagram, for example, at 100 Hz (corresponds to 10 ms cycle duration of one sine oscillation), we can see a phase offset between the input and output signal of -97.9 and an amplitude reduction of -3.4 db. The following figure explicitly shows the phase offset and the amplitude reduction for a superimposed speed setpoint oscillation of 100 Hz ( = cycle duration 10 ms).

If this additional oscillation is superimposed on the existing oscillation, the amplitude reduction and the phase offset are reduced. Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641 45

4 Function description and commissioning 4.3 Examples for characteristics for POLYGON The following figure shows this principle for the oscillation with 100 Hz by way of example. If the resulting setpoint corresponding to the leading frequency response is subject to a phase offset of 97.9 and an amplitude increase of 150 % (corresponds to 3.4 db), the resulting actual value has the correct phase angle and amplitude: Fig. 4-8 Actual value after phase offset and amplitude increase of the setpoint This is shown in the following figure. It shows: the original setpoint profile the actual value profile after adaptation of the phase angle and amplitude of the setpoint profile. Fig. 4-9 Actual value profile after adaptation of the setpoint profile and original setpoint profile Note If the signals are interconnected as a torque setpoint, the transfer function has a substantially higher cut-off frequency because the current controller sampling time is active. However, in this case, too, the effects mentioned are measurable and can be compensated for via this functionality. To arrive at a correct compensation profile for changeable frequencies, the master value offset (CI: p31240) and the amplitude (CI: p31247) must be dynamically defined from outside. An analog procedure can be used for compensation of dead times. 46 Function Manual (FH15), 10/2015, A5E33270641
