Notes
When defining integrand names for a dual axis, typically only the master axis
should have an integrand defined. Other axes assigned as members of the
dual group typically should have their integrand name configured as “none.”
If you want to decouple a dual axis group in a dual processing system, and
you want to perform planar functions that require and integrand word, then
you must assign an integrand letter and plane for that axis.
Important: A group may have all linear or all rotary axes. A linear and a
rotary axis may not be part of the same dual axis group.
Only the master axis name is valid when defining a plane in the Plane
Select parameter group. No other dual axes group members can be used in
a plane definition.
If axes are assigned as members of a dual axis group, the group must have
a valid Dual Axis Master name configured. If no master axis name is
configured, the control will not come out of E-Stop.
You should already have configured your axis types (linear or rotary)
before attempting to set this parameter. If after you have assigned an axis
to a dual group and the axis type for that axis is changed, this parameter
automatically resets to the default condition of independent axis for
that axis.
This parameter must be set independently for each axis.
This feature is not available on the 9/230 control.
