Direct Coupled Linear
For a Direct Coupled Linear load type, you can express Scaling Units for the
linear motor, for example, Inches.
Here is an example of Direct Coupled Linear load that is scaled in Inches and the
resulting values for the Conversion Constant and Motion Resolution.
For more information about Conversion Constant and Motion Resolution, see
the Integrated Motion on the EtherNet/IP Network Reference Manual,
publication MOTION-RM003
.
Rotary Transmission
For a Rotary Transmission load type, you enter the Transmission ratio
mechanical system. When you allow the software scaling calculator to compute
the Scaling Factors by using the Transmission Ratio, it reduces the risks of
cumulative errors due to irrational numbers.
Here is an example of Rotary Transmission load scaled in Packages (three
packages per Load Revolution) and the resulting values for the Conversion
Constant and Motion Resolution.
Scaling Units for Rotary Transmission
load type is expressed in terms of Load
Revolutions, for example, Packages.
