MotionView Software Configuration
Chapter 5
Indexing Category
The software for the onboard indexing operation is accessed via the MotionView
software and is also configurable over the EtherNet/IP connection by using
explicit messaging in RSLogix 5000 and RSLogix 500 software.
In Indexing mode, the Kinetix 300 drive begins executing indexes based on either
a command received over the EtherNet/IP connection or immediately upon
assertion of the hardware enable signal.
Table 50 - Indexing Category
An index controls drive operation when Drive mode is set to Indexing in the
General category. The drive starts indexing at the index whose number (0
…
31) is
reflected in the cumulative binary values of the Index Select 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 that
are selected in the Digital Inputs category.
The digital input Index Select binary values are as follows:
•
Index Select 0 = 1 if active, 0 if not.
•
Index Select 1 = 2 if active, 0 if not.
•
Index Select 2 = 4 if active, 0 if not.
•
Index Select 3 = 8 if active, 0 if not.
•
Index Select 4 = 16 if active, 0 if not.
If an Index Select is not assigned to a digital input, the Index Select is considered
inactive.
