Configure Your Linear Thruster

Configure the linear thruster by using the basic parameter settings described in this section. Use
the procedure appropriate for your motion axis.

LDAT-S

xxxxxx-xB linear thrusters with incremental encoders, are compatible with all Kinetix

drives and have a default resolution of 5 μm. LDAT-S

xxxxxx-xD linear thrusters with absolute

encoders are only compatible with Kinetix 300 drives.

The type of Allen-Bradley drive connected to the linear thruster determines the configuration
procedure. The following table to shows you the configuration procedures to follow.

Positive Motion Direction

Positive motion is defined as the slider extending from the stator body opposite the power and
feedback connectors.

ATTENTION: Moving parts can cause injuries. Before running the linear thruster, make sure all
components are secure and safe guards are in place to prevent access to the path of moving
machinery.
Safeguards should prevent access to the linear thruster until all motion has stopped.
Check that the linear thruster is clear of foreign matter and tools. Objects hit by the moving thrust
rod can become projectiles that can cause personal injury or damage to the equipment.

IMPORTANT

You must verify that the servo control system safely controls the linear thruster with regard to
maximum force, acceleration, and speed.
