For each axis, the type of servo needs to be entered. To do this:
1. Configure the axis type as described on page 3-6.
2. Configure the servo by setting the:
Servo Hardware Type
Servo Loop Type
The full servo parameter selections will only become available when
both of these parameters are defined as a selection other than “None.”
a. To set the servo hardware type, select “Configure Servo” under
the F2--Axis menu. You are prompted to select a servo type.
