Overview of the SLC Servo Module 1-3
The SLC Servo Module operates in two modes:
•
Configuration
•
Command
When operating in the configuration or the command mode, the status
of the module is reported to the SLC processor.
Configuration Mode Operation
You can enter configuration mode only if the system is in Estop. In the
SLC Servo Module, you configure the SLC Servo Module by using M
files containing data provided by the SLC 5/03 (or versions listed
above) processors. All configuration parameters are internal to the SLC
Servo Module and stored in non-battery backed RAM.
In configuration mode, you select the proper setup configuration to
match the servo drive and motor without setting switches and without
special software. If you do not set up your own configuration, the
configuration is set to the default setting.
Command Mode Operation
Motor operations are performed in command mode. To operate in this
mode, set the mode flag (bit 15 in output word 0) to 0. In the
command mode, the SLC processor issues commands and activates
the following operations or moves:
•
Absolute moves
•
Incremental moves
•
Speed moves
•
Monitor moves
•
Hold moves
•
Unhold moves
•
Blend moves
•
Emergency stop operations
•
Homing operations
•
Preset operations
•
Clear faults
•
Alternate home moves
