Sensor THC Axis Setups
The THC Axis screen is designed specifically for use with the Sensor THC.
Note: For proper operation, Sensor THC encoder counts should be approximately 20,
000 counts/ inch.
Stall Force Tolerance
The Stall Force Parameter allows the user to select the amount of Following Error (inches
/ mm) to be used as the motion limit when Homing or performing manual IHS / plate
sensing. Example: If the value is set to .1 inches, the THC Axis will continue to move
the axis until .1 inches of following error has been reached. This will indicate the Plate
location during IHS and will indicate the top of the slide during homing.
Slide Length
This parameter is used to specify the overall motion length of the Slide mechanism being
used for the THC. This information is used to set the travel limits of the slide after
homing.
Home
The Home parameter is used to activate use of the Home feature for the THC Axis.
Depending on the Slide mechanism used, the THC may be Homed to Hard Stop, Hard
Stop w/ Current Limit or Home Switch.
