Abstract
A motor control apparatus for controlling driving of a motor includes an inverter which supplies power to a motor having a position detector, and circuitry which controls power conversion of the inverter based on at one or more predetermined control parameters, determine a type of the motor based on a signal received from the position detector of the motor, and control notification of setting confirmation of one or more of the predetermined control parameters in accordance with the type of the motor.
Claims18
A motor control apparatus for controlling driving of a motor, comprising:
- an inverter configured to supply power to a motor comprising a position detector;
- and
- circuitry configured to control power conversion of the inverter based on at least one predetermined control parameter, determine a type of the motor based on a signal received from the position detector of the motor, and control notification of setting confirmation of the at least one predetermined control parameter in accordance with the type of the motor,
- wherein the circuitry is configured to determine the type of the motor from one of a rotation type and a linear motion type, and the circuitry comprises a non-volatile memory and is configured to record the type of the motor in the non-volatile memory, make comparison between a current type and a preceding type recorded in the non-volatile memory, determine whether the current type and the preceding type match, and control the notification when the current type and the preceding type do not match.
A motor control system, comprising:
- a motor comprising a position detector;
- a motor control apparatus configured to control driving of the motor and comprising an inverter and circuitry;
- and
- an external terminal externally connected to the motor control apparatus and configured to output a release signal which releases notification,
- wherein the inverter is configured to supply power to the motor having the position detector, and the circuitry is configured to control power conversion of the inverter based on at least one predetermined control parameter, determine a type of the motor based on a signal received from the position detector of the motor, and control the notification of setting confirmation of the at least one predetermined control parameter in accordance with the type of the motor,
- wherein the circuitry is configured to determine the type of the motor from one of a rotation type and a linear motion type, and the circuitry comprises a non-volatile memory and is configured to record the type of the motor in the non-volatile memory, make comparison between a current type and a preceding type recorded in the non-volatile memory, determine whether the current type and the preceding type match, and control the notification when the current type and the preceding type do not match.
A motor control method for controlling driving of a motor, comprising:
- controlling power conversion of an inverter based on at least one predetermined control parameter;
- determining a type of a motor based on a signal received from a position detector of the motor;
- and
- controlling notification of setting confirmation of the at least one predetermined control parameter in accordance with the type of the motor determined;
- recording, in a non-volatile memory, the type of the motor determined;
- making comparison between a current type and a preceding type recorded in the non-volatile memory;
- determining whether the current type and the preceding type match;
- and
- controlling the notification when the current type and the preceding type do not match,
- wherein the inverter is configured to supply power to the motor comprising the position detector, and the determining of the type of the motor comprises determining the type of the motor from one of a rotation type and a linear motion type.
