9.2.3.2 Electronic gearing, Master-Slave operation (X5)
9.2.3.2.1 Connection to a S700 master, 5V signal level (X5)
You can link several S700 amplifiers together in master-slave operation. Up to 16 slave
amplifiers can be controlled by the master, via the encoder output. The SubD connector
X5 is used for this purpose.
Master setup: position output to X5, screen page "Encoder emulation" (ENCMODE)
Slave setup: screen page "Electronic gearing" (GEARMODE)
Frequency limit: 1.5 MHz
Example for Master-Slave operation with two S700 amplifiers, ROD emulation is used:
Slave GEARMODE: 3 Master ENCMODE:1
If SSI emulation is used, the master ENCMODE must be set to 2 and the slave GEAR-
MODE to 5.
9.2.3.2.2 Connection to stepper motor controllers with 5 V signal level (X5)
Wiring of the servo amplifier (SubD connector X5) to a stepper-motor controller witha5V
signal level.
Frequency limit: 1.5 MHz
