Step/Servo Configuration
You must set all of the step/servo switches to match your motor type. Refer
to Figure 1 for the location of the step/servo switches. If you are controlling
a stepper motor, set all of the switches to STEP. If you are controlling a
servo motor, set all of the switches to SERVO.
Breakpoint/Trigger Configuration
You must set the breakpoint/trigger switches to match the desired operation
of your motion controller. Refer to Figure 1 for the location of the
breakpoint/trigger switches. Each breakpoint/trigger switch is associated
with a single axis and can be set individually for either breakpoint output
or trigger input operation. Set the switch to TRIG if the axis is used as a
trigger input. Set the switch to BP if the axis is used as a breakpoint output.
Installing Your Adapter
You have several options for installing your adapter, depending on the
devices you are connecting to each other and the cable that you are using to
make the connection. To install the adapter, make sure the power is off to
the controller and the accessory, and set the switches as required for your
application. Then, refer to Table 1 to determine how to connect your
controller to your accessory using the adapter and the appropriate cable.
The adapter is shown as a box with an “A” inside it.
