RMC70/150 and RMCTools User Manual
Axis Type
Control: Has a physical Control Output and zero to two
inputs
Reference: Has only an input
Cascading Outer Loop: Used for Cascade Control
Control Loops
(Control Axes and
Cascading outer Loop
Axes Only)
None:
For axes with no feedback, only a Control Output
Single-Loop:
For controlling a single quantity, such as position, velocity,
acceleration (single- or dual-input), pressure, or force
(single- or dual-input).
Dual loop:
For controlling two quantities with a single Control Output,
such as position-pressure, position-force, position-
acceleration, velocity-pressure, velocity-force, velocity-
acceleration.
Output
(Control Axes Only)
Type: Analog ±10V output.
Using: Choose which physical Control Output on the RMC to
use.
Feedback Types
(All axes except Control
with No control loop)
Type:
•
Position
•
Velocity
•
Acceleration (single- or dual-input)
•
Pressure
•
Force (single- or dual-input)
Using: Choose which physical inputs will be assigned to the
axis, or select Custom.
Axis Labels
In addition to the axis number assigned by RMCTools, each axis can be assigned a name
by the user. To change the name of an axis, in the Axis Definitions Dialog, select an axis
and click Rename.
Notice that the connectors on the front of the RMC70 labeled "Axis 0" or "Axis 1" do not
necessarily have to belong to the internal Axis 0 or Axis 1 in the RMC70. The connectors
on the RMC150 also do not necessarily indicate which internal axis they belong to.
