2. Assign Digital Inputs for All Axes
When configuring digital inputs, assign each group according to your system layout:
- IN1 – IN6 → Axis A
- IN7 – IN12 → Axis B
- IN13 – IN18 → Axis C
Note: The example image shows only IN1–IN12. Configure IN13–IN18 for Axis C using the same method and pattern used for Axis A and Axis B.
Verify and update each input:
- Select the correct input function.
- Set debounce, if required.
- Choose the appropriate axis routing (Axis A / Axis B / Axis C).
- Confirm the polarity (Hi / Lo).
Note: The example image shows only IN1–IN12. Configure IN13–IN18 for Axis C using the same method and pattern used for Axis A and Axis B. - Repeat process until all digital inputs (IN1–IN18) are correctly assigned.
