Configuring a Mechatrolink drive.

MLINKDATA
Data of the Mechatrolink drive.
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes and spindles.
Parameter valid for a Mechatrolink drive.
This parameter shows the table to define the communication with the Mechatrolink drive.
MLINKDATA
DRIVEID Drive select.
OPMODEP Main operating mode of the drive.
OPTION Activate the drive options.
DRIVEID
Drive address.
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes and spindles.
Parameter valid for a Mechatrolink drive.
Possible values: From 1 to 14 (Mlink-I) / From 1 to 30 (Mlink-II).
Default value: 1.
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPA.DRIVEID.xn
Parameter included in the MLINKDATA table.
This parameter indicates the position (node) occupied by the drive in the Mechatrolink bus.
The drives must occupy consecutive positions starting at ·1·. Although the relationship
between the node number and the logic number of the axis or spindle is irrelevant, for clarity
sake we recommend to configure the nodes in the same order the axes and spindles are
defined at the CNC.
OPMODEP
Drive's main operating mode.
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes and spindles.
Parameter valid for a Mechatrolink drive.
Possible values: Position / Velocity / Inverter.
Default value: Position (axes) / Velocity (spindles).
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPA.OPMODEP.xn
Parameter included in the MLINKDATA table.
This parameter indicates the type of drive and the operating mode; servo with a velocity
command, servo with a position command or inverter control; the latter is only available for
spindles. We recommend to set the servos of the axes to operate in position mode and the
spindles in velocity mode. The inverter option must be used when the spindle is connected
to this type of device.
OPTION
Activate the drive options.
Parameter valid for linear and rotary axes and spindles.
Parameter valid for a Mechatrolink drive.
Possible values: From $00000000 to $0000FFFF.
Default value: $00000000.
Associated variable: (V.)[ch].MPA.OPTION.xn
Parameter included in the MLINKDATA table.
This parameter lets configure different options of the Mechatrolink drive, such as activating
acc/dec filters, activate the first or second feedback, choose either a P or a PI control for the
velocity loop, etc.
The drive options are coded in 16-bit format. Refer to the drive manual for the meaning of
each bit.
