PY - Auxiliary Position
Purpose:
Reads the position of the auxiliary feedback. Upon power on, the auxiliary position is set
to zero. The variable PY accumulates the auxiliary feedback pulses. PY can count
cyclically (refer to the
YM[N] command). When the motor is off, PY may be used to set a
value for the auxiliary position counter by typing PY=n. To program PY while the motor
is on (MO=1), refer to the
HY[N] command.
Attributes: Type: Parameter/Status report, Integer
Source: Program, RS-232, CANopen
Reset value: 0, Volatile
Restrictions: MO=0
Range: See
Notes below
Unit modes: All
Notes:
ƒ PY is limited to the position counter range .
ƒ If PY exceeds the modulo range, it will be automatically set to a value within that
range.
ƒ PY counts in the direction defined by YA[5]. If YA[5] is modified, PY will not
change, but position counting will be continued in the other direction. In dual
feedback mode (UM=4), the motor direction must be changed accordingly.
