Epsilon EP-P Drive and FM-3/4 Module Reference Manual
Variable Decimal
Var.Var#.Decimal
This parameter specifies the number of decimal placed of resolution that this particular user variable will use. Minimum value
is 0 (default), and the maximum number of decimal places in 6 (0.000000). When assigning the value of a User Variable to
different parameters, make sure that the parameter and the User Variable have the same number of decimal places.
Variable Value
Var.Var#.Value
This parameter specifies the current value of a user variable. In a program, the ".Value" portion of the parameter name can
be left off. For example:
Var.Var0.Value = 12345 is the same as Var.Var0 = 12345
When assigning the value of a User Variable to different parameters, make sure that the parameter and the User Variable have
the same number of decimal places.
Velocity Command
VelCommand
The Velocity Command is the velocity that the FM-4 module is commanding the motor to run at. This command is generated
by the drive velocity control loop. It is displayed in user units.
Velocity Feedback
VelFeedback
This is the feedback (or actual) velocity. It will always return the actual motor velocity, even in synchronized applications in
which the master axis is halted during a move.
Decimal Places
VelocityUnits.Decimal
This parameter is used to select the number of decimal places used in velocity units scaling. Using a high number of decimal
places will improve velocity resolution, but will also limit the maximum velocity. This parameter is selectable between 0 and
6 decimal places. The number of decimal places set in this parameter determines the number of decimal places used in all
velocity parameters throughout the PowerTools Pro software.
Scaling
VelocityUnits.DistVelScale
Velocity units can be scaled to different from distance units, i.e. user distance units are inches and velocity units are feet per
minute, instead of inches per minute. To do this, simply enter 12 to set 1 foot equal to 12 inches (1 velocity unit = 12 distance
units). Range is 1 to 1000, integers only.
Units Name
VelocityUnits.Name
If the user wants the velocity units to have a different distance scaling than the distance units a name can be entered here up
to 12 characters, e.g. user distance units are inches and velocity units are feet per minute.
Scaling
VelocityUnits.ScalingFlag
This parameter enables separate velocity and distance user units, name and scaling.
