AKD EtherCAT Scaling for Velocity, Acceleration, and Deceleration >

This article discusses AKD EtherCAT scaling for velocity, acceleration, and deceleration commands and actual velocity.  For the position modes, FBUS.PARAM05 applies to position scaling and the scaling for velocity, acceleration, and…

Acceleration and Velocity Limits in EtherCat Position Mode >

When using the AKD with EtherCAT in Interpolated Position mode, are the AKD's Acceleration, Deceleration, and Velocity limits active? No they are not.  The accel, decel, and velocity needs to be managed by the trajectory generator…

Four Quadrant Operation >

A servo system capable of controlling velocity and torque in both positive and negative directions is known as having "four-quadrant" operation (see diagram below). Operation in quadrants 1 and 3 is defined as "Motoring," meaning that speed and…
