Master Source
Master Source indicates the hardware location of the master encoder input. Select module to use the sync input connector on the
Master Polarity
Master Polarity defines the direction of the master encoder that corresponds to a positive master position change.
Master Interpretation
Master Interpretation determines how the incoming pulses are seen to generate the synchronized motion command. This setting allows you to choose the appropriate signal type to match the device generating the master input pulses.
Drive Input Signal
Drive Input Signal is selected accordingly based on whether the incoming pulses are Differential (default) or Single Ended.
Output Source
Output Source determines which signal will be sent to the Sync Output connector on the FM- 3 module. If Motor Encoder (default) is selected, then the encoder signals from the motor that the
Master Position Setup Group
Define Home Position
Define Home Position is the value that the Master Position Feedback will be set to when the MasterAxis.DefineHome destination is activated. After the MasterAxis.DefineHome has been activated, the MasterAxis.AbsolutePosnValid source will activate.
Rotary Rollover Check Box
If checked, the rotary rollover feature for the Master Axis will be enabled.
Rotary Rollover
If enabled, the Master Position will rollover to zero at the value specified here. As the master encoder counts up, the master position feedback will increase until it reaches the Rotary
