Modifying Axis Parameters
Once a new motion component has been defined f o r an axis, you can
review its default parameters. The following discussion assumes that you
want to see them all and will not exit after each one is displayed.
NOTE
If you just want to change one parameter, you are probably familiar with
the controller's operation and need just some pointers. For this case we
included the quick key sequence and, where appropriate, the related
remote commands. For simplicity, we start the quick key sequence from
the top level Axes Setup menu, assuming that you already selected the
axis number you want to make the change to.
From the top level Axes Setup menu, press the MODIFY key to view (select)
the first axis parameter. To scroll the parameter list you can use the
UP o r bOWN k e y s . For consistency, in the following descriptions we
will use only the U P k e y .
Units
Units is the first axis parameter displayed. It represents the displacement
units the controller will use for display and reporting. The available units
are
mm, pm, In, mln, pin and Inc for translation mechanical families and
Deg, Grd, Rad, mRad, pRad and Inc for rotary mechanical families.
CAUTION
If you change the displacement units, you must revise all other parame-
ters that are affected. All velocities, accelerations, travel limits, etc. must
be scaled to the new units.
To change the displacement units, press the MODIFY key. Next press the
UP o r DOWN k e y to select new units. Press VALID t o accept the
new units and return to the previous menu.
Press the c o p , , k e y to advance to the next parameter.
