AXIS#.HWLS.POSSOURCE

Description

Selects which digital input will be used as the positive limit switch input for an axis.

No positive limit switch input is configured if this is set to zero.

Examples

Usage

0 (default): no positive limit switch input configured

1 to 8: selects DIN# as the positive limit switch input for an axis and is supported on all drive models.

9 to 12: selects DIN# as the positive limit switch input for an axis on drives with X22 Extended I/O Connector

Code

Selects DIN5 as the positive limit switch input for axis 1 and DIN6 as the input for axis 2.

Fieldbus Information

FieldbusClosedA Fieldbus is an industrial network system for real-time distributed control (e.g. CAN or Profibus). It is a way of connecting instruments in a plant design Parameter Index Sub-Index Data Type Float Scale Units Access PDOClosedPDO is a type of protocol frame used in some fieldbuses. A PDO contains one or more object dictionary entries, which define the application data transferred between devices. Mappable
EtherCATClosed***EtherCAT is an open, high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus system. The development goal of EtherCAT was to apply Ethernet to automation applications which require short data update times (also called cycle times) with low communication jitter (for synchronization purposes) and low hardware costs COE and CANopen AXIS1.HWLS.POSSOURCE 0x5015 0x4 USINT - - RW False
