1-12 Overview of Version 1 Upgrades
The functions described in this section have been added to the CS1W-
MC221-V1 and CS1W-MC421-V1. They are mainly divided into two catego-
ries: customized functions and the easy backup function.

Virtual axes
Any axis can be specified for virtual axis operation without connecting
to a Servo Driver and Servomotor.
A virtual axis can be used as the input axis for the electronic gear func-
tion or the electronic cam function to enable using these functions with-
out using an external encoder.
Can be used as the mas-
ter axis for electronic
gear or electronic cam
control. Enables opera-
tions such as position
compensation by inte-
grating a virtual axis.
Electronic gear
(CONNECT)
This function synchronizes the operating axis to the input axis at a
specified gear ratio.
The following options can be selected for the input axis: Virtual axis
present position, real axis position command value, real axis encoder
feedback input, MPG input, or sync encoder input.
The gear ratio can be changed during operation.
• Can reduce the amount
of mechanical equip-
ment required.
• Can reduce the man-
hours required for
mechanical mainte-
nance.
