 Encoder Axes and Virtual Encoder Axes
Encoder and virtual encoder axes differ from servo and virtual servo axes in the following ways.
• They do not have command positions. They have only actual positions.
• You cannot use motion-type motion control instructions for them.
Input Device/Output Device
For a servo or encoder axis, the node address specifies the node address of the EtherCAT slave device
that is assigned to the axis. For an NX-series Position Interface Unit, select the node address of the
EtherCAT Coupler Unit and the NX Unit number of the Position Interface Unit.
The Node Address parameter cannot be selected if the Axis Type parameter is set to a virtual axis.
Precautions for Correct Use Precautions for Correct Use
• OMRON 1S-series Servo Drives and G5-series Servo Drives can be set to specific node
addresses by using the node address switches on the front panels. If the node address
switches are set to 00, the node address will be determined by the settings made in the Ether-
CAT Editor of the Sysmac Studio. If the node address switches are set to 00 for all connected
Servo Drives, errors will not occur even if the Servo Drive's connection position is changed.
Set the node addresses on the node address switches to assign specific Servo Drives for
each machine control.
• The value set on the Servo Drive's node address switches is loaded only once when the Servo
Drive's control power is turned ON. Such changes are enabled only after the power supply is
turned ON again. Do not change the setting on the node address switches after the power
supply has been turned ON.
• An error occurs if the same node address is used more than once.
Additional Information
• The following example shows the EtherCAT device's node address setting for an OMRON 1S-
series Servo Drive with built-in EtherCAT communications.
7-segment display
• The rotary switches in the display area on the Servo Drive are used to set the EtherCAT node
address.
