Description
PLS.UNITS is a bit variable which determines the behavior of the eight PLSs available in the
drive. This parameter is used to select the units for the PLS pulse.
Examples
Bit Value Behavior
Bit 0 = 0
Position-based
PLS handling.
The PLS.STATE parameter displays an active PLS 1 when the position is
within the range of PLS.P1 + PLS.WIDTH1
(PLS.P1 <= PL.FB <= PLS.P1+PLS.WIDTH1).
When the parameter PLS.WIDTH1 has been set to the value of 0, this bit
will be activated as soon as PLS.FB >= PL.P1.
Bit 0 = 1
Time-based PLS
handling.
After PLS.P1 is crossed, the PLS.STATE parameter displays an active
PLS 1 for a PLS.T1 ms period of time.
Bit 7 = 0
Position-based
PLS handling.
The PLS.STATE parameter displays an active PLS
8 when the position is within the range of PLS.P8 + PLS.WIDTH8
(PLS.P8 <= PL.FB <= PLS.P8+PLS.WIDTH8).
When the parameter PLS.WIDTH8 has been set to the value of 0, this bit
will be activated as soon as PLS.FB >= PL.P8.
Bit 7 = 1
Time-based PLS
handling.
After PLS.P8 has been crossed. the PLS.STATE parameter displays an
active PLS 8 for a PLS.T8 ms period of time.
Continuous position-based PLS handling
PLS.P1 = 720
PLS.WIDTH1 = 360
PLS.UNITS bit 0 (for PLS 1) = low; PLS.T1 is not considered.
