Basic Operations
Section 1-3
Link operation This function can be used like the link mechanism of a machine.
The slave axis synchronizes with the master axis following the specified accel-
eration, constant speed, and deceleration areas.
(In the diagram below, vertical and horizontal axes indicate speed and time
respectively.)
Trailing Synchronization Trailing is started when the slave axis is standing by and the marker sensor is
turned ON. Once it catches up with the master axis, synchronous operation is
initiated.
