Dwell (CP-10)
The Dwell (CP-10) parameter allows the Follower mechanism to pause
at the end of the Follower profile before ramping back in the opposite
direction. In level wind applications, this parameter is a portion of the
encoder lines in one rotation of the reel (Lead). In web scanning
applications, this parameter is a portion of the encoder lines in one
traverse length. The Dwell parameter does not need to be an exact
number, the system will perform adequately with a close estimate .
The factory default for the Dwell Control Parameter is found in Table 3-12. To modify
the default parameter refer to Table 3-13. If you are uncertain how to enter a Control
Parameter, review the
Operations: Keypad section.
