Parameter Descriptions

Start Up
StartUp

This source can be used to trigger an event to occur on startup (when the FM-3 module powers
up or is rebooted). This source is typically used to initiate a program or to initiate a home so
that a machine will automatically home on power up or reboot. StartUp will activate when
the FM-3 module has powered up and no faults are active. Startup may take as long as five
seconds to activate. Depending on what the Startup source is assigned to, the drive may need
to be enabled to perform the function. If the drive is not enabled, the startup source cannot
initiate programs or motion. The source will remain active until the FM-3 module is powered
down.

Stop
Stop

Activate this destination to stop all motion and programs. If Stop is activated when a Jog,
Index, Home or Program is in progress, they will decelerate to zero speed at the Stop Decel
ramp. When Stop is active, all Jog, Home, Index and Program initiate destinations will be
ignored. When it is deactivated, all level sensitive and active input functions
(Jog.0.PlusActivate, Jog.0.MinusActivate, etc.) will become operational. For example, if the
Jog.PlusActivate input function is active when the Stop input function is deactivated, the
Jog.Plus motion will initiate using the acceleration found in the Jog.0.Accel parameter. This
is level sensitive.

Stop Deceleration
StopDecel

Deceleration rate used when the Stop destination is activated.

Torque Command
TorqueCommand

This parameter is the torque command value before it is limited. The torque command may
be limited by either the Torque Limit (if the Torque Limit Enable destination is active) or
current foldback.

Limited Torque Command
TorqueCommandLimited

This is the actual torque commanded to the motor. This value is the result after the
TorqueCommand is limited by the current foldback or the TorqueLimit value (if enabled).
