A method and apparatus for self-commissioning a bearingless-motor drive, which includes a bearingless motor and a control unit of the bearingless motor are disclosed. The motor includes at least one winding and at least one permanent magnet. The method includes generating a magnetic model, the magnetic model including a plurality of constant parameters; supplying, while the movable part remains standstill, to the at least one winding at least two unequal currents; measuring, with a magnetic sensor, flux linkages caused by said at least two unequal currents, respectively; calculating, with the magnetic model, flux linkages by inputting to the magnetic model current values equal to the currents supplied to the at least one winding; and fitting, with a least-squares fitting algorithm, at least one constant parameter in the magnetic model such that the difference between the measured and calculated flux linkages will be minimized.

A transmission includes an input shaft coupled to a prime mover, a countershaft, main shaft, and an output shaft, with gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. A shift actuator selectively couples the input shaft to the main shaft by rotatably coupling gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. The shift actuator is mounted on an exterior wall of a housing including the countershaft and the main shaft. A controller controls the shift actuator utilizing an actuating pulse and an opposing pulse.
