8.4.14 Setup NVM View
This view allows the user to configure which parameters are saved when power is cycled. If a parameter is not in this list, the
value of the parameter will revert back to the value that was downloaded when power is cycled. If a parameter is in the list, the
value that was being used just before power is cycled will be used when power is restored.

8.5.1 PLS View
The PLS view allows users to define the Programmable Limit Switches (PLS) for advanced machine operation. A PLS can be
used to accurately turn on or off a bit based on the PLS Source value. There are eight global PLS’s available for a single
application. Figure 95 is an example of the PLS view.

Source
PLSs can be assigned to four different sources: the motor axis, (MotorPosnFeedback, MotorPosnCommand), a master
synchronization signal, (MasterPosnFeedback) or the real time clock from the built-in microprocessor (FreeRunTime). This
parameter determines which source the PLS uses to reference its OnPosn and OffPosn in order to determine the
