PMAC 2 Software Reference 
PMAC I-Variable Specification  161 
I1013  Motors to Check 
Temperature 
0 Neither 
1 Motor 1 only 
2 Motor 2 only 
3  Motors 1 & 2 
If the Geo PMAC is checking temperature for the motor, the motor thermal sensor must be 
connected to pin 23 of the main encoder connector for the motor. 
I1015  SSI Clock Frequency Control  {New, Geo PMAC only} 
Range 
0 – 3 
Units 
none 
Default 
0 
Remarks 
I1015 specifies the frequency of the digital clock output for the SSI-encoder interfaces on 
the Geop PMAC. The following table lists the possible values of I1015 and the clock 
frequencies they produce: 
I1015  SSI Clock Freq. 
0 153.6 kHz 
1 307.2 kHz 
2 614.4 kHz 
3 1.2288 MHz 
I1015 is only used if the Geo PMAC’s Feedback Option 2 for absolute position feedback is 
ordered. 
I1016  SSI Channel 1 Mode Control  {Geo PMAC only} 
Range 
0 – 3 
Units 
None 
Default 
3 
Remarks 
I1016 specifies the mode for interpreting data from the first SSI-encoder interface on a 
Geo PMAC. The following table lists the possible values of I1016 and the data formats 
they cause the Geo PMAC to expect: 
I1016  SSI Clock Freq. 
0 (Reserved) 
1 (Reserved) 
2 Numeric binary 
3 Gray code 
I1016 is only used if the Geo PMAC’s Feedback Option 2 for absolute position feedback is 
ordered.
