Custom Drive Scaling Attributes Dialog Box Overview (AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE)

Use this dialog box to monitor the position, velocity, acceleration, and torque scaling attributes or parameters for an axis of the type AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE.
When a parameter transitions to a read-only state, any pending changes to parameter values are lost, and the parameter reverts to the most recently saved parameter value.
When multiple workstations connect to the same controller using the Logix Designer application and invoke the Axis Wizard or Axis Properties dialog, the firmware allows only the first workstation to make any changes to axis attributes. The second workstation switches to a Read-Only mode, indicated in the title bar, so that you may view the changes from that workstation, but not edit them.
Parameters
Advanced Custom Scaling
Use this dialog box to display internal SERCOS position, velocity, acceleration and torque scaling attributes established by the ControlLogix system for an axis of the type AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE.
Attribute/Parameter
Description
PositionDataScaling
This 16-bit attribute displays the scaling method used on position values, e.g., Position Command Value, Position Feedback Value 1 (Motor Feedback), and Position Feedback Value 2 (Auxiliary Feedback). Because only the first 8 bits (0 - 7) of this attribute are used (8 - 15 are reserved), decimal values of this attribute range from 0 to 255.
Bit values are:
Bits 2-0: Scaling method
000 - no scaling
001 - linear scaling
010 - rotational scaling
Bit 3:
0 - preferred scaling
1 - parameter scaling
Bit 4: Linear Units
0 - meters
1 - inches
Bit 4: Units (must be 0)
0 - degrees
1 - (reserved)
