15-way D-type on the Drive can be used as the source. The number of pulses per revolution can be scaled by factors of 2. The UD53 must be fitted in the small option module bay of the Unidrive. Installation All connections to the Drive are made by a multi-way connector.
To ensure mechanical safety, additional safety devices such as electro-mechanical interlocks may be required. The Drive must not be used in a safety-critical application without additional high-integrity protection against hazards arising from a malfunction. UD53 User Guide Issue code: 53nu3...

UD53 fitted. Initial setting up By default, the UD53 is configured for operation with a resolver having a 3:1 turns ratio. If the resolver to be used has a turns ratio of 2:1, set parameter 16.10 Resolver turns ratio select at 1.

Refer to Autotune in Chapter 3 Setting Up the Drive in the Unidrive User Guide, or to parameter 5.12 in the Unidrive Advanced User Guide. If the Drive trips while Autotune is being performed, see the Note above. UD53 User Guide Issue code: 53nu3...
Change in feedback resolution with change of maximum speed The resolver feedback signals are sampled by the UD53 at a resolution that depends on the maximum speed of the Drive. (This is determined by the value of 1.06 Maximum speed, and when 1.08 Negative minimum speed select is set at 1, it can also be determined by 1.07 Maximum reverse speed.)

The Z marker-pulse outputs are sychronized to the simulated-encoder quadrature AB outputs only when the resolution of the AB outputs is equal to or greater than 1 Drive software V03.xx.04 or earlier No simulated-encoder outputs are available. UD53 User Guide Issue code: 53nu3...
Related Parameters Introduction The parameters listed in this chapter are used for programming and monitoring the UD53. Refer to the Unidrive User Guide for programming instructions. Before attempting to adjust any parameters, refer to the Warnings and Notes at the beginning of Chapter 3 Setting up the Drive in the Unidrive User Guide.

Aligning the Resolver Mechanically Note Use this procedure only when the procedure described in Phase offset in Chapter 5 Setting Up the UD53 cannot be performed. Use the following procedure to precisely align the resolver with the motor (for zero phase-offset). Precise alignment can be achieved only when the resolver is connected to the Drive.
