3.1 Single axis setting Gantry mode must drive the servo drives and the motors of both axes. Therefore, respectively execute single-axis initialization based on “E1 Series Servo Drive Thunder Software Operation Manual”. The setting procedure is shown as below. Connect to master servo drive and execute single-axis initialization.

MD22UE01-1910 E1 Series Servo Drive Gantry Control System User Manual Setting Procedure Build up the relationship of master and slave. Connect to the left servo drive in figure 3.2.1 and set Pt00D = 0x1 (define it as master). Reboot the left servo drive to make it become effective.
MD22UE01-1910 E1 Series Servo Drive Gantry Control System User Manual Setting Procedure 3.3 Confirmation before activating gantry control system Before activating gantry control system, double check some parameters and the resolution. The setting procedure is shown as below. Ensure some Pt parameters of both axes are the same.
After entering gantry mode, both axes are viewed as single linear system. Therefore, homing methods applied in single axis control system (refer to “E1 Series Servo Drive User Manual” for the description) are applicable for gantry control system. The setting procedure is shown as below.

MD22UE01-1910 E1 Series Servo Drive Gantry Control System User Manual Setting Procedure Overtravel (P-OT or N-OT) signal received by master and slave servo drive can only be triggered in linear servo drive. Therefore, triggering any axis’ overtravel signal satisfies the triggering overtravel signal procedure of homing.

4.1 Single axis gain tuning When to use: Before entering gantry mode, users want to move the motor by driving single axis. In this case, the target is to make it stable. Refer to “E1 Series Servo Drive User Manual” for the setting method.
MD22UE01-1910 E1 Series Servo Drive Gantry Control System User Manual Gain Tuning 4.3 Current ratio parameter In gantry control system, a connection relationship exists in the structure of the two axes. Excessive force from yaw axis may cause damage to the stage. To ensure yaw axis’ force limit, users can set linear axis’...

MD22UE01-1910 E1 Series Servo Drive Gantry Control System User Manual Safety Protection Function Incorrectly operating gantry control system may cause damage to the stage. For safety, pay attention to the following features before entering gantry mode. 5.1 Enable/Disable axes in gantry control system After entering gantry mode, both axes are viewed as single linear system, and master axis is in the position of control.

The usage is similar to that of single axis. The sources are from linear axis’ original positions, and the position of linear axis will be compensated. The setting procedure is shown as below. Set up linear axis’ error map and save it to master servo drive (refer to “E1 Series Servo Drive Thunder Software Operation Manual”).
