Spindle Synchronization
Use the spindle synchronization parameters to synchronize velocity or
position and velocity between two spindles with feedback using your
9/260, 9/290, or 9/440 control.
The feedback ratio between the two spindles must be a simple ratio with
either side no greater than 10 (e.g., 1:1 or 10:7). If either side of the ratio
exceeds 10 (e.g., 11:1 or 5:12), an error will occur.
Select the “Spindle Synchronization” screen from the first page of the main
menu to access the synchronization parameters.
