7.1 Synchronous Movement
7.1.7 Settings on Slave
7.1.7.1 Mode:
For synchronous driving, the slave is operated in Gear or Gear(Follow) mode (reg. 2
mode = 3 or 24). The slave follows the master with its set speed and acceleration. It fol-
lows that the speed and acceleration of the slave should be greater (at least equally) than
the speed and acceleration of the master. In Gear(Follow) mode, unlike Gear mode, the
set acceleration is ignored. The master is operated in a different mode (e.g. mode = 2
positioning)
7.1.7.2 Gearfactors:
The gear factors for the input (register 15) and output (register 14) are set to the same
value.
7.1.7.3 Firmware:
Due to hardware issues, the firmware has been revised.
For the synchronous run you use the engine firmware MAC400_Firm-
ware_v2_25_4_1.maf or newer.
