Description

MEIMotorDacStatus is a structure that contains the demand value for both Command and Auxiliary DACs. It is used to read the cmd and aux DAC level (in volts) from a SynqNet controller.

SynqNet RMB nodes contain DAC (digital to analog converter) to generate a +/- 10 volt control signal to the servo drive. SynqNet drives do not have DACs, instead they use the digital demand value directly.

SynqNet RMBs
The cmd DAC value is available if the motor is configured for MEIMotorDemandModeANALOG and the cmd and aux DAC values are available if the motor is configured for MEIMotorDemandModeANALOG_DUAL_DAC.

SynqNet Drives
If the motor is configured for MEIMotorDemandModeTORQUE, the cmd DAC value is the digital torque demand to the drive. The aux DAC value is not available.

If the motor is configured for MEIMotorDemandModeVELOCITY, the cmd and aux DAC values are not available.
