MACHINE PARAMETERS.
(REF: 1402)
Machine parameters for the axes and spindles.
OPMODEP
Drive's main operating mode.
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes and spindles.
Parameter valid for a Mechatrolink drive.
Possible values: Position / Velocity / Inverter.
Default value: Position (axes) / Velocity (spindles).
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPA.OPMODEP.xn
Parameter included in the MLINKDATA table.
This parameter indicates the type of drive and the operating mode; servo with a velocity
command, servo with a position command or inverter control; the latter is only available for
spindles. We recommend to set the servos of the axes to operate in position mode and the
spindles in velocity mode. The inverter option must be used when the spindle is connected
to this type of device.
OPTION
Activate the drive options
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes and spindles.
Parameter valid for a Mechatrolink drive.
Possible values: From $00000000 to $0000FFFF.
Default value: $00000000.
Parameter included in the MLINKDATA table.
This parameter lets configure different options of the Mechatrolink drive, such as activating
acc/dec filters, activate the first or second feedback, choose either a P or a PI control for the
velocity loop, etc.
The drive options are coded in 16-bit format. Refer to the drive manual for the meaning of
each bit.
HIRTH AXIS.
HIRTH
Axis with Hirth toothing
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes.
Parameter valid for analog drive, Sercos and simulated.
Possible values: Yes / No.
Default value: No.
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPA.HIRTH.xn
A Hirth axis is the one that can only be positioned at positions multiple of a given value.
Even if the position of a Hirth axis does not coincide with its pitch, the axis may be moved
to a valid position in both automatic and jog modes. If the position to move the axis does not
match its pitch, the CNC will issue an error message.
HPITCH
Hirth axis pitch.
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes.
Parameter valid for analog drive, Sercos and simulated.
Possible values: From 0 to 99999.9999 mm or degrees / from 0 to 3937.00787 inch.
Default value: 1 mm or degrees / 0.03937 inch.
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPA.HPITCH.xn
When the axis is set as Hirth axis, this parameter indicates its pitch. Parameter REFVALUE
will be taken as initial coordinate for the next increments.
Any stop or movement in continuous jog will stop the axis in coordinates multiple of HPITCH.
Movements in incremental jog will only be valid if they are greater than HPITCH and will be
limited to multiples of this value. The positions of the switch for jog movements may be
customized at the axis parameter table so they match the desired steps.
The way the decimals of a Hirth axis will be displayed on the screen will be configured using FGUIM.
