Parameter Descriptions
Distance Decimal Places
DistUnits.Decimal
This parameter is used to select the number of decimal places used in the
DistUnits.CharacteristicDist. Using a high number of decimal places will improve
positioning resolution, but will also limit the maximum travel distance. The number of
decimal places set in this parameter determines the number of decimal places used in all
distance parameters throughout the software. You can select from zero to six decimal places
of accuracy.
Distance Units Name
DistUnits.Name
This is a text variable which is used as the label for the distance/position user units. It can be
up to 12 characters in length.
Drive Ambient Temperature
DriveAmbientTemp
This parameter should be set to reflect the ambient air temperature near the drive heatsink
during normal operation. This will determine the amount of regenerative power that can be
dissipated by the EN drive's internal shunt resistor. When that calculated value is exceeded
by the Shunt Power RMS parameter a shunt fault will occur. Valid only for EN-208 and EN-
214 drives.
Drive Analog Output Feedback
DriveAnalogOutput.#.Feedback
Displays the Output voltage from one of the two analog outputs found on the 3-pin connector
on the front of the drive or on the drive command connector.
Drive Enable Status
DriveEnableStatus
This source is active when the drive is enabled.
Drive Input Debounced
DriveInput.#.Debounced
This displays the state of the input after the debounce is taken into account.
