CP-66 INTEGRAL
In systems that require greater accuracy, it may be necessary to adjust the Integral (CP-66)
parameter value to reduce any remaining position error. In systems with low inertia, the position
error will be reduced more quickly if you enter higher values in CP-66. An entry that is too high,
however, can create instability or overshoot the setpoint before reaching the correct value.
Generally, use lower entries for CP-66 on systems with a large inertia. While switching between
the high and low setpoints, increase the Integral's default value of “1” until the position error is
reduced within an acceptable time frame. To verify the stability of the speed changes, you can
access Tach through either the Tach key or the Tach (MV-40) parameter.
CP-70 DEVICE ADDRESS
The M–Traverse has an access address which can be set from 1 to 32. Each individual M–
Traverse on a multidrop RS422 communications link needs a unique Device Address. The
address “00” will be globally accepted by all of the M–Series Controls on the communications
link, however, they will not send a response message back to the host computer when this global
address is used.
CP-71 BAUD RATE
There are six different baud rates (data rates) for the M–Traverse. Enter the number, for the
required rate, as listed below.
1 = 300 Baud
2 = 600 Baud
3 = 1200 Baud
4 = 2400 Baud
5 = 4800 Baud
6 = 9600 Baud
CP-72 CHARACTER FORMAT
The M–Traverse uses three different character formats. Enter the number for the required
format, as listed below.
1 = 8 Data Bits, No Parity, One Stop Bit
2 = 7 Data Bits, Even Parity, One Stop Bit
3 = 8 Data Bits, No Parity, Two Stop Bits
