4.4.8 Menu Option - Enable Axis Mode
In some applications (e.g. if the actuators are fitted to a 2-
axis mirror mount), it may be advantageous to move two
axes at the same time by moving the joystick diagonally.
This option is used to set the way in which the motor axes
are enabled from the top panel CHANNEL SELECT
button, either a single axis, or a pair of axes.
Press the MENU button, then use the joystick to scroll
through the menu options.
Press the MENU button to enter the Enable Axis Mode
option.
Use the Joystick to select the required axis option. During
operation, channel selection is achieved via the top panel
CHANNEL SELECT button.
Enable Single - The motor axes can be selected
individually, CH1 through CH4.
Enable Axis Pair - The motor axes can be selected in
pairs, CH1 and CH2 or CH3 and CH4. In this way, a
diagonal movement of the joystick will result in both
channel motors moving.
Disable All - The motor channels are disabled.
Press the MENU button to save the selection and return
to the operating mode.
