SETPOINTS AND RAMPS
This section discusses the setup procedures for setpoints and ramps. The setpoint determines the speed at
which you want your drive to operate when the CX-1200 is in the “Run” mode. The setpoint can be a speed
(ft/min), a ratio (Follower to Lead) or a setting that is relative to other factors, such as a dancer position.
The CX-1200 can be run in:
• Inverse Follower Mode
• Follower Mode
• Master Mode
• Direct Mode
Use the “Run Modes” screen to select the mode of operation (e.g., Inv Follower, Follower, Master, Direct) as
well as to select the Sync mode (e.g., Off, Fixed, Trend or Learn). Once you have selected the mode of
operation, then use the corresponding screen (e.g., Master, Follower, Direct) to specify how that mode will
operate.
Caution: To avoid damage to your system, the CX-1200 must be calibrated and the motor drive set up before
you operate your system. Refer to Drive Setup / Calibration: Calibration.
