Synchronisation (slave mode)
8.1.1
Function: Synchronisation
During synchronisation (slave mode), the motor controller is synchronised to the synchronisation set-
point value. The encoder signals “incremental signal (A/B/N), pulse/direction signal (CLK/DIR) or for-
ward/reverse signal (CW/CW)” can be used for this purpose. The motor controller receives the syn-
chronisation setpoint value from an incremental encoder, a controller or a master motor controller. The
motor controller can be controlled via the synchronisation interface “encoder input
[X10][X10.1/X10.2]” or the control interface “digital inputs [X10][X10.1/X10.2]”. From the setpoint
value of the encoder signal, the parameterised line count and the parameterised “virtual gear unit”, the
motor controller calculates the position setpoint values and transfers these cyclically to the position
control.
The incremental signals “A/#A/B/#B/N/#N” from the synchronisation inter-
face [X10/X10.1/X10.2] can either be used as an encoder input for synchronisation or as
an encoder output for encoder emulation (default setting).
During synchronisation, all other operating modes are on hold.
