Servo Parameters
Chapter 7
7-14
Function
We recommend setting this parameter by using the [F2] function key as
described on page 3-11, and selecting the “Configure Servo” option. You
can however set this parameter directly from the servo parameter screen.
This parameter is used to indicate the type of hardware you have purchased
for your servo system.

If you have this Servo Hardware: Catalog #:
(a) None This is the default value for this parameter. This value should be changed to correctly reflect the servo
hardware you have purchased.
None
(b) 4 Axis Digital (1394) A 9/260 or 9/290 CNC with one or more four axis servo card(s) designed to be connected to an Allen
Bradley 1394 Digital Servo Amplifier.
8520-SM4 1
(c) 4 Axis Digital (8520) A 9/260 or 9/290 CNC with one or more four axis servo card(s) designed to be connected to any Allen
Bradley 8520 Digital Servo Amplifier.
8520-ENC4
(d) 4 Axis Analog A 9/260 or 9/290 CNC with one or more four axis servo card(s) designed to be connected to an analog
version of the Allen Bradley 1394 drive or other Allen Bradley Analog drive.
Important: You must use this selection for analog spindles used with 1394 digital axes.
8520-SM4 1
(e) 9/440 Digital (1394) The 9/440 CNC. 8520-x5S
1 The 8520-SM4 servo card can be configured to have both analog and 1394 Digital servo’s connected to the same servo card for different axes.
Notes
This parameter must be set independently for each servo.
Once you have configured both the “Servo Hardware Type” and the “Servo
Loop Type” additional parameters to configure that specific servo system
become available.
