Description
This parameter is the numerator of the gear ratio for the electronic gearing mode. The gear ratio is used in order to
increase/decrease the slave velocity. The slave velocity can be calculated by the following formula:
Slave velocity = Master velocity * GEAR.OUT/GEAR.IN
Make sure that the external master source has been set properly. Also, be certain to select a gear ratio such that
the maximum electronic gearing velocity (GEAR.VELMAX) will not be exceeded.
Master velocitymax * GEAR.OUT/GEAR.IN < GEAR.VELMAX
