Soft Inputs and LEDs
Emulate hardware inputs. For
use only when Soft Controls
are active.
Caution: motor
may spin when enabled.
Displays commanded
torque (when using
Soft Controls).
Frequency Meter
Displays frequency of
signal connected to
Input B.
PWM Soft Slider
Emulates PWM
input (for use with
Soft Controls).
Hardware Input Status LEDs
Light = Input asserted (on)
Dark = Input de-asserted (off)
Displays commanded
torque (when using
hard controls).
Check to turn on Soft
Controls. Override cannot
be activated when ClearPath
is hardware enabled.
Click to open
Torque Limit
Setup dialog.
Displays HLFB
output status.
Set Min/Max Frequency
. During
operation, motor torque is controlled by
Input B signal frequency. With settings
shown below, a 10 kHz input signal will
command the motor to its Max Torque
Command (10% of peak ), and a signal of
1kHz or less will command zero torque.
Enter max. desired
motor torque (i.e.,
full scale torque).
Enter max. speed limit
(ClearPath will shut down if
this speed limit is exceeded.)
Enter value to specify how long
ClearPath can spin at
Max Speed
before shutting down.
Torque Override Indicator
When lit, the main torque limit is being
overridden by a secondary, user-set torque
limit (e.g., when an axis is homing, the main
torque limit may be overridden by the
separate homing torque limit setting).
