The units on a simulated axis are flexible. The simplest way to set the units is
to set PFAC=1, which can be thought of as 1 simulated unit (eg, 1 meter, 1
inch). Set
VFAC
to PFAC/1000 for units-per-second or set to PFAC/60000
for units-per-minute such as rpm. Set
AFAC
to VFAC/1000, such as meters-
per-second

. Most axis properties do work with simulated axes, including:
Position properties: command, feedback, final
Velocity properties: command, feedback, cruise, maximum
Acceleration and deceleration
Acceleration maximum and deceleration maximum
In addition, you can move, jog, gear, and cam simulated axes. The following
axis properties do not work with simulated axes:
Position error and velocity error (assume to be zero)
Velocity Overspeed
Tuning parameters
External position and velocity
