Encoder type
Linear incremental
Distance between two increments:
In this field, you can configure the distance
between two steps of the encoder.
Bits for fine resolution in the incremental actual
value (Gn_XIST1)
In this field, configure the number of bits for fine
resolution within the incremental actual value
(Gn_XIST1).
Encoder type
Linear absolute
Distance between two increments:
In this field, you can configure the distance
between two steps of the encoder.
Bits for fine resolution in the incremental actual
value (Gn_XIST1)
In this field, configure the number of bits for fine
resolution within the incremental actual value
(Gn_XIST1).
Bits for fine resolution in the absolute actual value
(GN_XIST2)
In this field, configure the number of reserved bits
for fine resolution within the absolute actual value
(Gn_XIST2).
Invert encoder direction
Select this check box if you would like to invert the actual value of the encoder.
6.6.3
Configuration - master value interconnections (synchronous axis only)
You can interconnect a synchronous axis with multiple leading axes. You can only actively
interconnect one leading axis as a master value during runtime of your user program.
All interconnection required during operation must be set up during configuration of the
technology object.
Possible master values
Add all axes that you require for operation as a master value for the synchronous axis in the
"Possible master values" list. You can add positioning axes or synchronous axes as leading
axes.
You can interconnect the axes added in the list as master value with the synchronous axis
with the Motion Control instruction "MC_GearIn".
All configured master value interconnections for the technology object are displayed in the
cross-reference list of the technology object.
