Input Selection
Defines which inputs are used by the CNC and their physical location on the CNC
interface. All controls are shipped with the default selection of inputs and interface
locations for the selected control interface (I/O) configuration.

Torch Collision Uses

You can select to use a Fast Stop Decel value or the Fault Ramp time that has been

Drive Enables
Determines how the CNC responds to drive faults. If you select Series, all axes must
complete their individual fault ramp times before the drives are disabled. If you select
Independent, each drive is disabled as soon as its axis fault ramp time is finished.

Initial Feedback Delay
Allows the initial feedback from the drive system to be held off after initial power up.
This allows the drive system to become fully enabled before it enables the position loop.

remains on.

Speed Pot and Joystick Overview

Through the use of single-ended inputs to an optional analog input card installed in the
control, your CNC can be configured to support an external joystick or two speed
potentiometers.

Note: These features are not available for all CNC types and optional CNC hardware
may be required.

• The external joystick is used as a directional command signal when it is in manual

motion.

• The optional speed potentiometer can be used to adjust the current motion speed.

• These features must first be enabled at the password-protected I/O screen.

Joystick Installed
Select Yes to enable the optional external joystick. This parameter is not available for all
CNC types and optional CNC hardware is required.
