Offline System / Module Configuration Screen Tabs /

Motors

This screen allows motor configuration and troubleshooting. When the system is powered on, the motors connected are automatically detected and displayed here with defaults. Here we show an online and an offline example.
Please also view the applicable model of your ConveyLinx module’s page for specific motor information. Links are listed at the bottom of this page.

Here is an offline motor tab

Item	Function	Description
	Left Motor	● Motor Types, Motor Direction, Brake Method, Closed Loop, Speed, Acceleration, Deceleration
	Right Motor	● The Right side configures the motors on the right side of the ConveyLinx module
	Set All Left	● Click the Set All button on the left to set more than one setting at a time, checking the box for all of the left motor settings and setting it for left motors is the default behavior ● It is possible to set all motor settings for left motors all across the network, or select more checkboxes to set the settings for right motors, sensors, zones, and more ● Each Conveylinx module that you’d like to be affected should be checked, they all appear as their Ip addresses with an image of the particular model within their subnet
	Set All Right	● Set All Right defaults to setting the right motor settings across as many modules as you’d like, but can set left and right motors and/or zone settings, sensor settings

The Set All pop-up window

Here is an online motor tab

While online you can view additional configuration items and statuses for the motor, the below is an example of this but does not cover all possibilities. This particular ConveyLinx module also has two motors, and as a ConveyLinx module with two motors and one sensor it has a dropdown to configure the Motor Slave Option. ConveyLinx Ai2 and ConveyLinx Ai3 modules automatically assign the motor without the sensor to be the slave, and modules with two motors that have either both sensors or neither sensors do not provide the Motor Slave Option.

Item	Function	Description
	Left and Right Motor	● These configurables are the same as the offline, however they affect an online module so be aware of the changes you’re making and heed any warnings
	Force Belted MDRs run	● Stop and Run toggle
	Slave Motor State	● Stop and Run toggle
	Motor Errors	● Green light indicates no errors present for each potential motor error ● Potential Errors include Voltage Drop under 18 Volts, Motor Short-Circuiting, Max Torque Reached, Overloaded, Motor Stalled, Motor Sensor Error, Overheating, Overvoltage which is over 30 Volts
	Motor Values	● Motor Error Counter, Real Speed Percentage of Maximum Speed available to the detected motor, Current in milliamperes, Motor Temperature in degrees Celsius, Module Temperature in degrees Celsius, and Operating Time
	Reset Operating Time	● Reset the timer to zero, helpful for troubleshooting time-sensitive processes
	Clear Short-Circuit Errors	● Clears any Short-Circuit Errors which may have occured ● The green “light” above will have indicated a Short-Circuit error
	Motor Slave Option	● The drop down provides options for the Slave Motor’s Behavior
