HW - Hand Wheel

Compatibility: All drives

See also: EG, FE, and MT commands; see AT command for using analog input as sensor input

Puts drive in “hand wheel” mode until the given digital or analog input condition is met. Hand wheel mode is a kind of low speed

following mode, where the motor follows master encoder signals as a hand wheel is manually turned. This command differs from

the FE command in that the AC, DE, and DI commands are not used in any way. In other words, the motor will attempt to follow

the master encoder signals without injecting any ramps to smoothly approach high frequency target speeds or to come to a stop

when the stop input condition is met.

SRV-AC5, SRV-DC7, STP-10-Q, STP-AC5, SRV-AC3

Inputs X1 and X2 are used for connecting the A and B signals of the encoder-based handwheel. The EG (Electronic Gearing)

command denes the following resolution of the motor.

ITM-23Q

Inputs STEP and DIR are used for connecting the A and B signals of the encoder-based handwheel. The EG (Electronic Gearing)

command denes the following resolution of the step motor.
