"Real Axis" Function

At a Glance

The "Real Axis" function is carried out by channels 1 – 8 of the TSX CSY 84 module and by channels 1 – 16 of the TSX CSY 164 module. It can control the servodrives via the bus ring to create physical axes (up to 8 possible physical axes).

NOTE: The parameters of an axis control module and servodrives are run separately via Control Expert and UniLink. So, if the user changes the value of a parameter used by the module and the servidrive, using the UniLink configurator, this will not be updated in the axis control module. After this type of operation, the user must therefore adjust the parameter in the module using Control Expert.

For more information on managing parameters, (see Parameter Management).

NOTE: The servodrive corresponding to the real axis 1 should be located at address 1 of the SERCOS®.ring.
