Sigma SD Servo Spindle Drive Mini Manual
Sigma V - Spindle Drive
Critical information:
- Server Location: M:\Production\Products\Spindles\Spindle Drives\Yaskawa Sigma-V
- Programming
- Get the correct software from the local server or Yaskawa's website
- SigmaWin+ Ver. 5.75 or above must be installed (\\svr1.machmotion.local\MachMotion\Production\Products\Spindles\Spindle Drives\Yaskawa Sigma-V\Software\SigmaWinPlus575)
- Sigma-5-SD Component installer (SWFVSD100_SetupE.exe) downloaded from Yaskawa website. (\\svr1.machmotion.local\MachMotion\Production\Products\Spindles\Spindle Drives\Yaskawa Sigma-V\Software)
- Ethercat: Must use SigmaWin_SD MT software version (used for all versions?)
- Use a USB Mini Cable for communication into port CN4.
- Get the correct software from the local server or Yaskawa's website
- Motor Data Files: https://www.yaskawa.com/products/motion/spindle-products/motor-data-files
- Select "Sigma SD Spindle Motor Data Files (Doc# PD.SIGMASD.01)" and download the compressed folder.
- More information: https://www.yaskawa.com/products/motion/spindle-products/spindle-drives/sigma-sd-spindle-drive
- Example System for Schematics: M:\Production\Customer Backups\Hydratight_OEM\19457_2000 series upgrade\Electrical Documentation\19457 - Electrical Drawings - As Built
- If it is a Hydratight system install the Hydratight Yaskawa Spindle Drive.usr parameter set.
Programing the Drive
Load the Motor Config file.
You will need to load your particular motor file from PD.SIGMASD.01.zip.
Until you load the Motor config file, you may see the A.052 Alarm.
After loading the motor config file, then copy in the main drive parameters file.
The parameters file must be loaded AFTER the motor config file or else you may see the A.910 Alarm.
Additional Notes:
| Parameter | Default | Changed to |
| PN800 | 100 | 10 |
| PN802 | 100 |
10 |
| PN82b.0 | 0 |
1 |
| PN82c.0 | 0 |

ESP = the safety relay circuit to reduce the speed when stopping in estop circuit.

Ethercat capable drives
Parameters between ethercat and non-ethercat have been noticed to be different
When setting up if there is no drive parameter file to pull from then these will be the necessary ones to have to set:
| Parameter | Default | Changed to | Purpose |
| Pn01E | 0000H | 0003H | The type of motor has to be selected |
| Pn406 | 800 | 25 | Emergency stop torque |
| Pn541 | 65535 | 7000 | Max speed of the motor goes here |
| Pn543 | 1000 | 10 | Speed detection level |
| Pn544 | 100 | 5 | Speed detection hysterisis |
| Pn630 | 0 | 1 | Emergency stop execution delay time |
These are the ones for tuning:
| Parameter | Default | Changed to | Purpose |
| Pn100 | 400 | 200 | Speed loop gain |
| Pn101 | 2000 | 4000 | Speed loop integral time constant |
| Pn103 | 100 | 10 | Moment of inertia ratio |
