Chapter 1

1.2.4.1.1.1. Axis Mapping

Information about .L5X file that Motion Analyzer generates is displayed at the
top of the screen as read only information.

Table 42 - Axis Mapping Properties

The name you define for each axis in Motion Analyzer software is used to create a
RSLogix 5000 axis tag. Underscore characters replace spaces in the name defined
in Motion Analyzer software. To change these names you must exit the Export to
RSLogix 5000 wizard and change the names by right-clicking each axis in the
Motion Analyzer explorer tree.

All axes in your Motion Analyzer (.mba) file appear in the table. If they will
export without trouble, a green status check is displayed.
