Best Practice
Keep the motor mechanically disconnected during setup and adjustment phase.
4.1.1
Determination of Power Supply
Basically, any power supply may be used, provided it meets below stated minimal requirements.
1)
Calculate required voltage under load using following scheme (the formula takes a max. PWM
cycle of 90% and a max. voltage drop of -1 V at EPOS2 24/5 into account):

2)
Choose power supply capable as to above calculation. Thereby consider:
a) During braking of the load, the power supply must be capable of buffering the fed back
energy, e.g. in a capacitor.
b) When using an electronically stabilized power supply, observe that the overcurrent protec-
tion must not be activated in any operating state.
