PY - Auxiliary Position

Purpose:
Reads the position of the auxiliary feedback. Upon power on, the auxiliary position is
set to zero. The variable PY accumulates the auxiliary feedback pulses. PY can count
cyclically (refer to the

YM[N]

command). When the motor is off, PY may be used to set

a value for the auxiliary position counter by typing PY=n. To program PY while the
motor is on (MO=1), refer to the

HY[N]

command.

Notes:

PY is limited to the

position counter range

If PY exceeds the modulo range, it will be automatically set to a value within that

range.

PY counts in the direction defined by YA[5]. If YA[5] is modified, PY will not

change, but position counting will be continued in the other direction. In dual
feedback mode (UM=4), the motor direction must be changed accordingly.
