Description

MPIAxisMaster defines the source of the position and velocities used as the master for cam motion. See also Master Position Source.

The type field specifies if the number or address fields are used and which object the number field refers to.

MPIMasterType	Number	Address
MPIAxisMasterTypeMOTOR_FEEDBACK_PRIMARY	motor number	Not used
MPIAxisMasterTypeMOTOR_FEEDBACK_SECONDARY	motor number	Not used
MPIAxisMasterTypeAXIS_COMMANDED_POSITION	Axis number	Not used
MPIAxisMasterTypeAXIS_ACTUAL_POSITION	Axis number	Not used
MPIAxisMasterTypeADDRESS	Not used	Any controller address
MPIAxisMasterTypeNONE	Not used	Not used

type	This field defines the type of master position source is being used.
number	the motor or axis number.
address	The controller address to be used as the master position.
encoderFaultMotorNumber	The number of the motor that is checked for an encoder fault. If this motor detects an encoder fault this axis will abort. A value of -1 disables this encoder fault function. See Master Encoder Faults.
