Command Correction
An optional exponential or a logarithmic adjustment can then be applied to the signal. Ex-
ponential correction will make the commands change less at the beginning and become
stronger at the end of the joystick movement. The logarithmic correction will have a stron-
ger effect near the start and lesser effect near the end. The linear selection causes no
change to the input. There are 3 exponential and 3 logarithmic choices: weak, medium and
strong. The graph below shows the output vs input change with exponential, logarithmic
and linear corrections.

The exponential or log correction is selected separately for each input using the PC Con-
figuration Utility.
Use of Analog Input
After the analog input has been fully processed, it can be used as a motor command or, if
the controller is configured to operate in closed loop, as a feedback value (typically speed
or position).
Each input can therefore be configured to be used as command or feedback for any motor
channel(s). The mode and channel(s) to which the analog input applies are selected using
the PC Configuration Utility.
Pulse Inputs Configurations and Uses
The controller’s Pulse Inputs can be used to capture pulsing signals of different types.
