Feedback Devices View

This view provides up-to-date data about the devices. Clicking on the feedback number field opens a Feedback # View to configure it.

Element		Description	Parameter
X#		Indicates the connector used for the feedback
Feedback # block	[number]	Identifies the feedback and serves as a link to the configuration view
	Type	Indicates the feedback type identified	FB#.IDENTIFIED
	Actual Encoder Resolution	This parameter reports the actual encoder resolution of the feedback device A process whereby some proportion of the output signal of a system is passed (fed back) to the input. In automation, a device coupled to each motor to provide indication of the motor's shaft angle, for use in commutating the motor and controlling its speed and position. The drive calculates the FB#.RES value based on the encoder characteristics. It is provided in encoder counts/rev for rotary encoders and encoder counts/mm for linear encoders.	FB#.RES
	Position	Current position in raw feedback counts	FB#.P
	Graphical Indicator	Visually indicates the position of the feedback within one revolution
FB Usage		Indicates how the feedback is being used by an axis. Clicking an entry will open the view configuration.
