Installation Setup

Display Configuration

Individual encoders are connected to the

VRO 300T

at inputs numbered 1

through 6. The assignment of each encoder to an axis display (X, Z1, or Y for
example) is done by completing this form.

Each axis display can be configured in one of the
following ways.

Unused—press the

OFF

softkey to delete the

axis from the DRO display.

Single Encoder—use the numeric keypad to enter

the encoder input number.

Coupled Encoders—you can couple two encoders
together using the

,

-

, or

keys:

+

will display the sum of

encoders 1 and 2.

-

1

2

will display the difference

between encoders 1 and 2.

1

2

will display the average of encoders 1 and 2.

You can display the same encoder in more than one axis.

In the above example, the X, Z1, and Z2 displays show encoders 1, 2, and 3

respectively. The Y-axis display will also show encoder 3, and the U-axis
display couples the movements of encoders 2 and 3 together (for example,
when the compound axis is parallel to the longitudinal axis). The V display
will not appear.
