How to config Mechanical parameters for Motor parameters in MC Workbanch V6.2

When I try to set all details into the Motor Control Workbench (with Hall Sensors) at Motor Parameters, there are fields for Inertia and Friction, that I am not sure how to configure.

The motor spec is as below images.

What should I set for Inertia and Friction.

Inertia:      uN*m*s2

Friction:     uN*m*s

Many thanks,

Tom

Hello TomChu,

Concerning your Inertia and Friction values, know that we provide a tool called MotorProfiler that allows you to get all needed information about your motor. You can find its MCSDK 6.2 startup guide right here.

However, the Inertia and Friction values are only used in the scope of the PID tuning, so a manual configuration is also possible to fit your needs.
Beware that the Hall Sensors profiling is currently not functional on any MCU except G4.
