Configuring a channel involves defining the parameters for the application-specific function associated with this channel:
Configuration of an Independent Axis
An independent axis (channels 1 to 16) can support real axis functions, imaginary axis functions, and external setpoints:
-
The configuration of a real axis enables control of a physical axis (which uses a servodrive). In this case, a certain consistency must be ensured between the parameters entered in the TSX CSY 164 module configuration screen and those defined during servodrive configuration.
-
An imaginary axis can, for example, act as a master axis in a slave axes group. All of the parameters for this type of axis are defined in the configuration screens for the axis control modules.
-
A remote axis can be used to upload an item of remote position data to the module. Configuring an external measurement involves configuring a real axis or an imaginary axis in which only the position information is valid.
Configuration of Coordinated Axes
Channels 17 to 20 (coordinated axes group) on the TSX CSY 84 allow the following services to be used:
On the TSX CSY 164, a new command has been added:
Configuration of Slave Axes
Channels 21 to 24 (slave axes group) on the TSX CSY 84 allow the following services to be used:
-
READ_PARAM
-
WRITE_PARAM
-
WRITE_CMD (except Move),
-
SAVE_PARAM
-
RESTORE_PARAM
-
READ_STS.
On the TSX CSY 164, a new command has been added:
