This parameter allows the user to specify the identity of the CTNet token ring to which a Motion Processor is connected. In a system incorporating a
single token ring this parameter can be left at its default value. In a system incorporating multiple token rings, separate ID’s should be set for each
ring. The combination of CTNet Token Ring ID and CTNet node address should be unique.
Defines the node address for CTNet. Every node on a CTNet network must have a unique address. Setting this to zero will disable CTNet on this
node.
Specifies the data rate for CTNet. All nodes on the network must be set to the same data rate. The rates are defined as follows:
Specifies the synchronization message generation rate for CTNet. This message is used to tell all nodes when to transmit cyclic data. Only one node
on the CTNet network should have this parameter set. The format of the update parameter is SSFF, where FF defines the Fast Cyclic data channel
update rate, and SS defines the slow cyclic data rate in multiples of FF. So if the parameter value is 1510, fast cyclic data is set every 10ms and slow
every 150ms. When using easy mode (see below) it is only necessary to set up the FF (fast cyclic rate).
