EGDEF
Definition of an electronic gear
Following axis
Axis that is influenced by the leading axes
Leading axis1
,...,
Leading axis5
Axes that influence the following axis
Coupling type
The coupling type does not need to be the same for all leading
axes and must be programmed separately for each individual
master.
Value: Significance:
0 The following axis is influenced by the actual value of
the corresponding leading axis.
Coupling type1
,...,
Coupling type5
1 The following axis is influenced by the setpoint of the
corresponding leading axis.
Note
The coupling factors are preset to zero when the EG axis grouping is defined.
Note
EGDEF triggers preprocessing stop. The gearbox definition with EGDEF should also be used
unaltered if, for systems, one or more leading axes affect the following axis via a curve table.
