Understanding IMC-S/23x Setups

Publication 999-122 - January 1997

Machine Setup Menu

The Machine Setup Menu allows values for machine-specific
parameters for each axis to be entered and edited. A list of all the
machine setup menu parameters is included at the end of this section
for reference.

After completing the Application setup menu, the IMC-S/23x asks

Toggle to

YES

, press ENTER, and select the desired axis as explained

earlier in this section to set up the axis parameters for your application.

If the axis you have selected is not enabled for your application in the
application setup menu, the message

is displayed and you must select another axis.

If enabled, each physical axis on the IMC-S/23x may be independently
configured in the application setup menu to be either a full closed-loop

SERVO

axis or a

MASTER ONLY

axis (virtual axes are always

MASTER

ONLY

). When an axis (physical or virtual) is configured as

MASTER

ONLY

, the encoder input for that axis is used as a master for electronic

gearing and cams. In this case, the IMC-S/23x displays

and questions relating to closed-loop operation are not asked in the
machine setup menu.

If the axis you have selected is configured for full closed-loop

SERVO

operation in the application setup menu, the message

is displayed and all questions are asked. If the imaginary axis is
selected, the message

is displayed and only the conversion constant and unwind value (if the
imaginary axis is configured as a rotary axis in the application setup
menu) need be entered.
