Description:

The

FASTAUXSELECT function allows you to select which of the fast position capture inputs will

capture an auxiliary encoder channel.

MintDrive, ServoNode 51

There are two capture inputs, 0 and 2. Use the

FASTAUXSELECT keyword to select which input will

cause the auxiliary encoder value to be captured. E.g.

REM Input 2 captures the auxiliary encoder.

FASTAUXSELECT.0 = 2

NextMove PCI

There are 4 capture inputs, 0,1,2 and 3. An expansion card adds 4 inputs, 20, 21, 22 and 23 and an

auxiliary encoder. An encoder can only be captured using inputs on the same card. Use the

FASTAUXSELECT keyword to select which input will cause the auxiliary encoder value to be captured.

E.g.

REM Input 0 captures auxiliary encoder 0 and input 22 captures auxiliary

encoder 1.

FASTAUXSELECT.0 = 0

FASTAUXSELECT.1 = 22

NextMove BX

There are 4 capture inputs, 0,1,2 and 3. Use the FASTAUXSELECT keyword to select which input will

cause the auxiliary encoder value to be captured. E.g.

REM Input 3 captures the auxiliary encoder.

FASTAUXSELECT.0 = 3
