Interface
l Master-slave Operation of Drives Diagram: The encoder interface can be
used to link one or more 17D drives together in a master-slave operation, as
shown in the following diagram. Up to 16 slave drives can be controlled by a
designated master drive via the encoder output. The UniLink software allows
you to setup the parameters for the slave drive(s) and to adjust the gear ratio
(number of pulses/turn).
Note: In this configuration, the analog setpoint inputs are disabled and Analog Com
and I/O Com (connector X3) must be connected.
