[2] General parameter categories
Click the checkbox corresponding to each category of parameters you want to transfer (the clicked
checkbox will be selected). Only the parameters of the selected category or categories will be
transferred to the controller.
[3] Parameter transfer options – Select parameter transfer options
Of the parameters selected in the General parameter categories group, select whether to transfer
actuator-related parameters only, transfer non-actuator parameters only, or transfer all selected
parameters. In the following cases, no parameters will be transferred and the warning message,
"Parameters will not be transferred" will be displayed.
x
Actuator related parameters only is selected under Select parameter transfer options in the
Parameter transfer options group when no actuator-related parameter category (Specific Axis,
Driver Card or Encoder) is selected in the General parameter categories group.
䊶
Control related parameters (non-actuator) only is selected under Select parameter transfer options
in the Parameter transfer options group when no actuator-related parameter category is selected in
the General parameter categories group.
[4] Parameter transfer options – Actuator specific parameters, transfer from axis # to axis #
This section will not be displayed for the X-SEL-JX/KX controller.
You can associate axis-related parameters in the source file with a given axis number in the
destination controller and transfer them to the specified axis number.
Select ‘Select axis # to transfer from & to axis #.’
Select the checkboxes corresponding to the axes (under Transfer to) you want to transfer the
parameters to. They are arranged in the order of axis 1, axis 2, and the like, on the controller side,
from the top. Do not select the checkboxes corresponding to the axes you do not want to transfer the
parameters to.
In each Transfer from checkbox, specify the axis number whose axis-related parameters in the file
you want to transfer.
Fig. 8.17 Example of Transfer Source/Destination Specifications
Note) Do not select Select axis # to transfer from & to axis # if you want to transfer the axis-related
parameters for all axes without changing their axis numbers (i.e., to transfer all axis parameters to
the axes of the same numbers), or if no axis-related parameters are transferred. This checkbox is
normally not selected. Note that the electrical circuit of each controller depends on the actuator
connected to each axis. An attempt to change the axis configuration only by changing parameters
may cause problems or errors.
NoteIn the case of the X-SEL-PX/QX and RX/SX controllers, axis 1 to axis 4 for SCARA are specified
simultaneously. They cannot be specified individually, and the axis numbers cannot be selected
either. With regard to axis 5 and axis 6 for orthogonal axes, selection can be made between Axis
No. 5 and No. 6.
In the case of the XSEL-RX/SX controller, selection can be made from Axis No. 5, No. 6, No. 7 and
No. 8 for axis 5, axis 6, axis 7 and axis 8 for XSEL-RX/SX orthogonal axes.
In the specification example shown at the left,
data for axis 2 in the file is sent to axis 1 in the
controller, data for axis 1 in the file is sent to
axis 3 in the controller, and data for axis 3 in
the file is sent to axis 4 in the controller,
respectively. (Data is not sent to axis 3 in the
controller.)
