Chapter 9 Axis Units Per Rotation The number of units which the actuator moves while gearbox output rotates for one circle. Axis Mode This parameter sets the real axis to read the actual position of servo components, the virtual axis to calculate by a controller and the encoder axis to perform with an encoder. Encoder Axis Mode Users can select Encoder Axis from the Axis mode and mode options include incremental encoder 1, incremental encoder 2, absolute encoder and data source. Encoder Axis Data Source Users can select DataSource from the Encoder Axis Mode and left-click icon for DataSource setting window to appear as below. The drop-down list of Device Name include %IL, %QL and %ML.
This section is for Device Number settings amount for each scanning cycle of the assigned device value. Under DataSource , the variation amount of the encoder axis position is the same as that of the variation EtherCAT Node DVP50MC, DVP50MC-06 and AS516E-B support this item. The node number begins from 1001 to 1024. 9-19 Mode Function Incremental Encoder 1 The data source is derived from incremental encoder 1 Incremental Encoder 2 The data source is derived from incremental encoder 2 Absolute Encoder The data source is derived from absolute encoder DataSource The data source is derived from assigned device data
