Figure 18. Vector Rotate Home screen. The left panel controls the X-axis, centre the Y-axis and right the Z-axis.
In Vector Rotate mode the Home screen now has 3 panels (Figure 18). In this example the X-
axis and Y-axis are showing undefined. This is because there are no power supply devices
configured in the axis groups of GRPX or GRPY. The panels, whilst cut down still have the
essential controls which function in the same way as the standard “solenoid” Home screen. To
see the detailed “Home” screen for each axis tap the “>” button at the bottom-right corner.
Tapping on the “Current (A)” (or “Field (T)”) indicator brings up an axis dependent “Set Point /
Set Rate (?-axis)” (where ? = X or Y or Z) screen, so that the target current (or field) and target
ramp rates can be set for each axis. Each screen also has a “Rate Limits” button so that a rate
limit table can be defined for each axis.
