Enables the synchronization output for [axis].


When executed, the data for synchronization mode is written from local memory to the ASIC to activate the synchronization mode. These commands are also used when changes are made to synchronization mode to move the values from local memory to the ASIC in both standalone and ASCII operations.


Access: Write

Category: Sync

Applies to: 2CR, 4CR, 4ED, 4EX, CM3, 8CR


ASCII                        SYNO[axis]                                

Standalone                SYNON[axis]


Syntax                        

Write

SYNO[axis]=[value]        

[axis] is set to X, Y, Z, U

[value]  is target synchronization position

Example 

ASCII

Turn on synchronization output.

SYNPX=1000

* Sets target synchronization position to 1000 on X-axis.

SYNCX=1

* Sets synchronization mode to at-position, in any direction, on X-axis, based on pulse position.


Make changes to synchronization mode.

SYNCX=3

* Sets synchronization mode to at-position, in negative direction, on X-axis, based on pulse position

SYNOX

* Writes new values to the ASIC for the X-axis.


Standalone

Turn on synchronization output.

SYNPOSZ=700

* Sets target synchronization position to 700 on Z-axis.

SYNCFGZ=8

* Sets synchronization mode to continuous, in any direction, on Z-axis, based on pulse position.

SYNONZ

* Writes data to ASIC then turns on synchronization for the Z-axis.


Make changes to synchronization mode.

SYNCFGZ=24

* Sets synchronization mode to continuous, in any direction, on Z-axis, based on encoder position.

SYNONZ

* Writes new values to the ASIC for the Z-axis.


Notes

  • The synchronization function for each axis is independent. 
  • Manual pulsar function must be disabled to use the synchronization mode. (MPE[axis])
