FB#.MONITOR#.SOURCE

Description

FB#.MONITOR#.SOURCE sets a source to monitor. The source can be one of: Hall State, Amplitude, Sine or Cosine. These sources are the same as in commands FB#.HALLSTATE, FB#.SIGNALAMPLITUDE, FB#.SIGNALSIN and FB#.SIGNALCOS.

These commands are only used for FB1 (on the X1 connector) and FB2 (on the X2 connector) when a Smart Feedback Adapter (SFA) is used. The number of monitors is system dependent and two monitors are created by default.

FB#.MONITOR#.DATA is used to read the value of these signals. The read value is the same as those referenced above (in the set starting with FB#.HALLSTATE) with the difference that it can be recorded.

Example

Usage

This command is used to set any source number from the table below.

Source Name	Number
None (Default)	0
Hall State	1
Amplitude	2
Sine	3
Cosine	4

In the code below, the source is set to Sine and check the help on the command.

Code

-->FB1.MONITOR1.SOURCE 3
-->DRV.HELP FB1.MONITOR1.SOURCE
Help for: FB1.MONITOR1.SOURCE [Integer] [ReadWrite] [Grouped] [NotInUse] [Enum]
Minval = 0
Maxval = 4
Default = 0
Actual value = 3 (Sine)
Values = 0 (None), 1 (Hall State), 2 (Signal Amplitude), 3 (Sine), 4 (Cosine)

Fieldbus Information

EtherCAT ***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
