ORIENT SETUP Menu The ORIENT SETUP menu (Figure 2.7) is used for configuring and tuning
the drive to properly perform the spindle orient function. If spindle orient is
being performed by the CNC, this setup is not required.

FEEDBACK DEFN
This is a menu title for defining the feedback type and electrical
configuration for use in spindle orient.
Encoder Type
The basic type of feedback device that is being used to provide spindle
position data is determined with this parameter. If a normal encoder with
quadrature A and B channel square wave outputs and a marker channel is
being used, select “OPTICAL PULSE.” The encoder must meet the
electrical specifications defined in the 8510 User Manual. If the high
resolution magnetic feedback offered with the 8510 is being used, select
“MAGNET ANALOG.” The alternate choices are not currently valid.
Important: When this parameter has been changed and stored, it will not
become effective until AC power is removed from the drive and then
reapplied.
Possible Choices: OPTICAL PULSE, MAGNET PULSE, MAGNET ANALOG
Default Value:
OPTICAL PULSE
