(Target Position Data) DAT (AXIS1), DAT (AXIS 2)
It is possible to switch the length of data used as target position data from the DAT (AXIS1), DAT (AXIS
2) 20 bit (every 100 kHz) signals. Please set appropriately to match the signal specifications of the
scanner controller that outputs a high-speed serial communication signal, and other output equipment.
Note: The length of data input in the GC-201 is always 20 bit (every 100 kHz). The bits of the target
position data that get used and sent are switched from within 20 bit data.
When there is a big difference in the target position specified in the high-speed serial communication,
and the actual operation position, it is possible this parameter setting is incorrect. Please verify.
The data length of the target position data by the high-speed serial communication can be changed by
two following parameters.
(Target position data length)
Can be changed by 16 bit – 20 bit.
Parameter ID DATA
67
16: 16bit Data *
17: 17bit Data
18: 18bit Data
19: 19bit Data
20: 20bit Data
(Data position)
The least significant bit position of the target position data of high-speed serial communication 20bit
data can be set by following parameter. The specified number of bits is shifted right, making the target
position data.
Parameter ID DATA
68
0: 0bit position
1: 1bit position *
2: 2bit position
3: 3bit position
4: 4bit position
With the default settings at shipping, the setting is * (16 bit position data length, data least significant bit 1
bit position). This communication specification is compatible with XY2-100. When using the scanner
controller of XY2-100 specifications, please use this setting.
