PDL (Process Description Language) programming
The D1-N servo drive amplifier has its own PLC functionality and can be used via
the proprietary PDL programming language.
A detailed description of this programming and how to use it can be found in a sep-
arate document called
and can be downloaded from www.hiwin.de. Alter-
natively, contact the technical support team at HIWIN (see section 2.9).
Position orders can be undertaken, operating changeovers (e.g. position control,
speed control or current control) can be performed, and outputs can be controlled
via the digital inputs.
