Important:
Parameters are entered in mm and auto-converted into inches by the SPA upon displaying the position values.
4.3.8. R ead / write timeout at bus error RS485 „j“ (6Ah)
This command reads or writes the system time: Timeout reply at bus error. Value range is within 00.1 s to
99.9 s. Tolerance: ±7% at minimum time; < 1‰ at maximum time, approx. 1 % at 1 s.
Functionality: RS485 bus monitoring during motive shaft positioning operations. If there is no interface activity
within the programmed timeout the motor will stop (EMERGENCY OFF) in case of bus error or inactive master.
Motor restart requires transmission of the profile (command „S“ or „V“) including the start signal (command „D“).
Setting 0.00 s means function disabled.
