Figure 6.9 Half Axis Mode (Following)

NOTE: The HAS variable must be set to less than 1 or Error

Code 9004, “Ratio Out of Range” will occur.

N

One and a Half Axis Operation (RATIOE)

A secondary drive can be connected to a pair of differential outputs. The secondary driver will operate off

of the differential output pair 15 and 16 (I/O pair 13 and 14 can also operate in this mode). Setting the

ratio mode to TRUE (1) for the differential output clock (IOS) specifies a secondary drive function. Then

when ratio mode is enabled (RATIOE); the secondary axis will follow the primary axis with the ratio

specified by the RATIO variable.

The sequence of commands used to make this setup function would be as follows:

‘Set IOS 15 to step/direction clock type, and ratio mode

IOS 15 = 5,0,1,0,2,1

‘Set IOS 16 to step/direction clock type, and ratio mode

IOS 16 = 6,0,1,0,2,1

‘Set Ratio Mode Enable Flag to TRUE (1)
