GEARMODE
This is a switch mode variable that specifies the operation of electronic
gearing for
OPMODE
4:
GEARMODE = 0 - Encoder Follower, Flex I/O (Connector C3)
Inputs:
The encoder input channel is decoded as a quadrature input,
scaled through
GEARI
/
GEARO
, and becomes the position command
for the motor. The digital I/O (Flex I/O) inputs serve as the encoder input
channel (see note below for clarification).
GEARMODE = 1 - Pulse and Direction, Flex I/O (Connector C3)
Inputs:
The encoder input channel A counts positive edges and
becomes the position command. The encoder input channel B level
dictates if the counter will count up or down. Channel B low drives motor
in CW direction. The digital I/O (Flex I/O) inputs serve as the encoder
input channel (see note below for clarification).
GEARMODE = 2
- Up/Down Mode, Flex I/O (Connector C3) Inputs:
The encoder input channel is configured as a counter to command the
motor’s position. Positive edges on the A channel increments the
counter (motor CW) while positive edges on the encoder input channel
B decrements the counter (motor CCW). The digital I/O (Flex I/O) inputs
serve as the encoder input channel (see note below for clarification).
GEARMODE = 3 - Encoder Follower, Remote Encoder (Connector
C8) Inputs:
The encoder input channel is decoded as a quadrature
input, scaled through
GEARI
/
GEARO
, and becomes the position
command for the motor. The remote encoder (handwheel) inputs serve
as the encoder input channel (see note below for clarification).
GEARMODE = 4 - Pulse and Direction, Remote Encoder (Connector
C8) Inputs:
The encoder input channel A counts positive edges and
becomes the position command. The encoder input channel B level
dictates if the counter will count up or down. Channel B low drives motor
in CW direction. The remote encoder (handwheel) inputs serve as the
encoder input channel (see note below for clarification).
GEARMODE = 5 - Up/Down Mode, Remote Encoder (Connector C8)
Inputs:
The encoder input channel is configured as a counter to
command the motor’s position. Positive edges on the A channel
increments the counter (motor CW) while positive edges on the encoder
input channel B decrements the counter (motor CCW). The remote
encoder (handwheel) inputs serve as the encoder input channel (see
note below for clarification).
