The usual answer to the

Dual Loop Control?

question is

NO

,

which disables the special dual loop mode. To enable dual loop control
for this axis, toggle to

YES

, and press ENTER. The servo control loop

with dual loop control enabled is shown below.

Once dual loop control is enabled for an axis (the dual loop axis), a
corresponding dual loop velocity axis must be selected. The encoder
input of the selected dual loop velocity axis is then used to close the
software velocity loop as shown in the figure above. Toggle to the
desired axis and press ENTER.

The axis selected as the dual loop velocity axis must not be the same
as the dual loop axis (the axis you are setting up) and must also be a
physical axis configured as

MASTER ONLY

in the application setup

menu. If you select an axis which is not configured, the message

is displayed and you must select another axis.

!

ATTENTION: There must always be a physical
connection between the two feedback devices used
with a dual loop controlled axis or unpredictable
motion may occur!

*** This Axis is NOT CONFIGURED!
