● System resources
● Configuration Data
● Communications error log
● Action log
Service axis
The information in the "Service axis" display is used to check the following values:
● checking the setpoint branch (e. g., position setpoint, speed setpoint, spindle speed
● checking the actual value branch (e. g. actual position value measuring system 1 and 2,
● optimizing the position control loop of the axis (e. g. following error, control deviation,
● checking the entire control loop of the axis (e. g. through position setpoint/actual-value
● checking hardware errors (e.g. by checking the encoder: If the axis is moved
● Checking and setting the axis monitoring functions.
