5.2 DS2100 Conventions
This section deals with commonly understood conventions for DS2100 operation.
5.2.1 Direction of Rotation
The positive direction of rotation is clockwise, when the motor is viewed from the shaft end, as shown in the figure
below.
Figure 5.1 Rotational Convention for Mechanical Process Variables
For operation with the encoder, positive rotation as defined here corresponds to Channel A leading Channel B.
The direction convention applies to all torque, velocity and position variables. For example a positive torque
command should tend to rotate the motor in a clockwise direction when viewed from the shaft end.
