8. Description of the configurable parameter

Motor reaction time (dead time)

Here you can set the time required by the motor after switching on

before it starts up. In order to do so, observe the motor type and

speciﬁcations given by the respective motor manufacturer.

For motors with mechanical end point settings, the reaction time is

extremely short – in this case the “oﬀ” setting (0 ms) is recommended.

For motors with electronic end point setting (so called “electronic mo-

tors”), the reaction time of the motor can have a signiﬁcant inﬂuence

on its accuracy when moving to speciﬁc slat positions.

If an “electronic motor” is used, the reaction time should be ascer-

tained by trial and error or by the motor manufacturer. For electronic

motors, a setting of “160 ms” is recommended, however, some elec-

tronic motors may require a setting of “480 ms”.

If precise reaction times are available for the motor, then this can be

custom set (individual reaction time).
