112 Naming & Configuring Your Motion Axis
The differences in the appearance of the Conversion Tab screens for the
AXIS_SERVO and AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE are the default values for
Conversion Constant and Position Unwind and the labels for these values.
Figure 6.18 Axis Properties - AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE Conversion Tab
Conversion Tab
Use this tab to view/edit the Positioning Mode, Conversion Constant, and if
configured as Rotary, the Unwind values for an axis, of the tag types
AXIS_SERVO, AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE and AXIS_VIRTUAL.
When a parameter transitions to a read-only state, any pending changes to
parameter values are lost, and the parameter reverts to the most recently saved
parameter value.
When multiple workstations connect to the same controller using RSLogix
5000 and invoke the Axis Wizard or Axis Properties dialog, the firmware
allows only the first workstation to make any changes to axis attributes. The
second workstation switches to a Read Only mode, indicated in the title bar, so
that you may view the changes from that workstation, but not edit them.
