Syntax x x G R n n or xxGR?
Parameters
Description x x [int] A x i s number.
nn [float] N e w value of maximum allowed master-slave following
error.
Read the actual maximum allowed master-slave follow-
ing error.
Range x x 1 to 8.
nn 0 . 0 0 0 1 to 10000.
Units x x — None.
nn N o n e .
Defaults x x M i s s i n g : E r r o r B.
Out of range: E r r o r B.
Floating point: E r r o r A.
nn M i s s i n g : 1.0.
Out of range: E r r o r C.
Description T h i s command sets the master-slave reduction ratio for a slave axis. The
displacement of the slave axis is the one of the master axis multiplied by
this coefficient.
NOTE
Use the GR command carefully. The slave axis will also have its speed
and acceleration in the same ratio than the position.
Be careful that the ratio used for the slave axis doesn't cause overflow of
this axis parameters (speed, acceleration), especially with ratios greater
than 1.
NOTE
If the CD command is used in conjunction with the SS command and GR
command, the slave axis cycle value must be equal to the master axis
cycle value multiplied by the master-slave reduction ratio.
Returns I f the sign "?" takes place of the nn value, this command reports the actual
value of the master-slave reduction ratio.
Errors A — U n k n o w n message code.
B — I n c o r r e c t axis number.
C — P a r a m e t e r out of limits.
Rel. Commands S S — S e t master-slave mode.
Example
2GR100 I S e t master-slave ratio for axis #2 to 100.
2GR? I R e a d master-slave reduction of axis #2.
2GR100 I Controller tells the value of this parameter.
