WORDS

Following Error Position

Purpose Following error is the difference between the commanded position and the actual posi-

tion.

Syntax variable = FE

variable Following error in user units. User units are defined by the

SCALE parameter. The variable may be a nonvolatile variable

Gn, a volatile variable Vn, or a system variable.

Remarks

See Also PFE, FEL, FET

Example

V3 = FE

FEL

Following Error Limit System

Purpose Changes the Following Error Limit (FEL) used in the program. Following Error is the

absolute value of the difference between the commanded position and the actual posi-

tion. If the Following Error is exceeds the FEL for a time greater than the Following

Error Time (FET), a fault occurs and system operation halts. The drive is disabled and

the Error system program is run (see Appendix A).

Syntax FEL = value

variable = FEL

value The value is entered in user units. User units are defined by the

SCALE parameter. The value can be a constant, a nonvolatile

variable Gn, a volatile variable Vn, or a system variable.

variable The variable may be a nonvolatile variable Gn, a volatile vari-

able Vn, or a system variable.

Remarks Changes made to this variable by a program are only in effect while the program is

running. When the program ends it will return to the value stored in the Personality

Module. If no change is made to this variable by the program, the value in the Person-

ality Module is used. The value in the Personality Module is set in the Parameter

menu, Gains/Limits dialog box.
