Multi-axis control adjustment apparatus, multi-axis control adjustment system, and multi-axis control adjustment method

A multi-axis control adjustment apparatus comprising:

• adjustment axis selection circuitry configured to select a plurality of target axes among a plurality of axes each of which represents a combination of a motor and a motor control device configured to control the motor according to a control parameter of the motor control device;
• adjustment operation execution circuitry configured to perform adjustment operations in each of which the control parameter is adjusted with respect to each of the plurality of target axes;
• and
• first control parameter setting circuitry configured to change, according to the adjustment operations, timing at which the control parameter is set with respect to each of the plurality of target axes,
• wherein the adjustment operation execution circuitry is configured to perform the adjustment operations based on a common command or individual commands, and
• wherein the first control parameter setting circuitry is configured to set the control parameter such that one control parameter with respect to one of the plurality of target axes is equal to another control parameter with respect to another of the plurality of target axes, while the adjustment operations are performed when the adjustment operations are performed based on the common command, and after completion of the adjustment operations when the adjustment operations are performed based on the individual commands.

• changing, according to the adjustment operations, timing at which the control parameter is set with respect to each of the plurality of target axes;
• and
• setting an adjustment pattern of the control parameter alternatively to a first adjustment pattern and to a second adjustment pattern,
• wherein, when the first adjustment pattern is set, a first adjustment operation is performed based on a common command and the control parameters are set to a same first value when the first adjustment operation is executed, and
• wherein, when the second adjustment pattern is set, a second adjustment operation is performed based on individual commands and the control parameters are set to a same second value with respect to the plurality of target axes after the second adjustment operation is completed.
