Functional Grouping by Axis
Some of the functions and parameters of the controller must be the same across groups of axes:

Step or
Servo Motor
2
If a 3-axis controller is to be used for 2 stepmotors and 1 servo motor,
then the servo motor must be axis 2 and the step motors axes 0 and 1.
When a pair of axes (2 and 3 in this case, even though axis 3 is not
present) are configured as a servo axes, the step pulse output is turned
off for both axes 2 and 3.
Open-loop or
Closed-loop
2
If a 3-axis controller is to be used for 2 closed-loop step motors and 1
open-loop step motor, then the open-loop step motor must be axis 2 and
the closed-loop motors must be axes 0 and 1.
Home &
Index
Functions
4
On a 4-axis controller, all axes will be configured to use the Home and
Index in the same fashion.
On a 7-axis controller, axes 0-3 will have a configuration that is inde-
pendant of the configuration for axes 4-6.
