Configuring Position Maintenance Gain [ PGi ]

Value: 10
Range: 1–32,767

Select value, press ENTER
PM Gain specifies a gain value used to determine correction velocity. The
correction velocity is calculated as “displacement* correction gain” in units
of steps/in. Therefore, the larger the displacement, the faster position
maintenance will attempt to correct position. For example, if the correction
gain is set to 3 and an active displacement of 3200 steps occurs, the
correction velocity will be (3 * 3200) = 9600 steps/sec.
Configuring Position Maintenance Max Velocity [ PVi ]
EDIT > SETUP > ENC > PMMAX
Value: 1.0 in/s
Range: 0.005–9,999,999.0
– Axis One PM MaxVel –
←1.0 in/s →
Select value, press ENTER
Limits the velocity of a position maintenance correction. Regardless
of the magnitude of displacement of correction gain, the correction
velocity will never exceed this maximum velocity setting.
Configure Your Application (Mechanics)
The MECH SETUP menu allows you to preset distance, velocity, and acceleration
units convenient for your application. These units are used for all display and
position reporting modes. This menu also allows you to compensate for a known
amount of backlash in your mechanical system, and to set a maximum allowable
speed for each axis.
