Operating Mode
This dialog lets you choose (from three available options) how you will
command motion, whether it's through software motion commands
(more common), or by using an external step and direction pulse
source, or by using an external quadrature A/B pulse source.
Operating Mode Dialog
Software Command
Select Software Command if you intend to command motor motion using
only your application software and motion functions in the Teknic
sFoundation library. This is the default setting and most common
operating mode used with SC family motors.
Step and Direction Pulse Input
Select Step and Direction if you plan to use an external step and direction
pulse source (PLC, microcontroller, etc.), and you intend to build a
machine application and use other functions in the sFoundation motion
library.
Quadrature A/B Pulse Input
Select Quadrature A/B Pulse Input if you have an external quadrature
A/B pulse source (PLC, microcontroller, etc.) and you intend to build a
machine application and use other functions in the sFoundation motion
library.
