Deskew Parameters
Chapter 36
36-6
Function
This parameter selects the master servo and determines the axis name you
program when commanding the split axis. Specifying this axis name in a
part program causes the master servo selected here and the slave servo
(selected later) to move the split axis to the specified position at the
specified feedrate.
Many parameters that control axis motion and response are attained from
the values configured for the master servo. The slave servo shares the
values of these parameters with the master servo:
All Homing Parameters (except Home Calibration)
All Zones/Overtravel Parameters
All Jog Parameters including jog speeds and jog increments
All Feedrate parameters
All Acc/Dec Parameters
All Constant Surface Speed parameters
All Cutter Comp/Tool Tip Radius parameters
All Axis Program format Parameters
All Tool Offset Parameters
All Fixed Cycles parameters
All Roughing Cycle Parameters
All Cylindrical/Virtual C Parameters
the master servo(s) status in regard to the PAL controlled features,
including:
Servo Off
Servo Detach
Axis Inhibit
Axis Clamp
These are all automatically copied from the master servo to the slave
servo. PAL cannot select different states between the master and slave
servos for these features.
Any of the above parameters that have been configured for the slave servo
are ignored and replaced with the master servo’s values.
Independent AMP parameters must still be configured for the following:
All Digital Servo Parameters
All Analog Servo Parameters
All Plane Select Parameters must not contain a slave servo name
