TMS320F28069M: Holding motor at zero speed for lab12b

Part Number: TMS320F28069M

hi there is a post before:

TMS320F28069M: Holding motor at zero speed for lab12b

I am using instaspin motion lab12b for controlling an ACIM in an elevator application.

Motor has an electromechanical brake and in the application I need to open the brake first while running motor at 0 rpm. Then when I am sure that the brake is open, I give a speed reference. When there is an inbalance in load, algorithm cannot hold the motor at zero speed, motor goes to wrong direction. When I give speed reference greater than zero it starts to go in the desired direction.

How can I achieve to hold the motor at zero speed with Instaspin? Can I give some DC current to the motor or do you have another recommendation?

    Sensored FOC is a good choice for this application, you can use a dc current brake to keep motor to lock at a position, and then run as setting speed in next step.

    Yes this has resolved my issue. Thanks

    I have same issue , my application is e-boat .  when boat float on wator  ,there is flower under boat  inverise .   if  we want start  we must hold motor first ,then start to cw.    
    I know use DC input motor . but how configurat it  .   does phase A  and phase B  input ,   phase C out ?  use duty of PWM ? 
    best regard

  • You might keep the motor running always to get the rotor position even it's braked. If not, you have to do a zero position calibration again. The motor can't run as your expectation if you don't do these two. And you have to pay attention to the speed&current controller also when you restart the motor.
