Hi guys, I do have all the manuals. It may be due to my background -- I have little motion or drive experience experience in my background - more of a process control/HMI/SCADA guy - but I was not understanding what the manuals were telling me. My thanks to Michael for the excellent explanations, I think I can take it from here. Regards, Stienie

Hi, I'm pretty new to the Omron world - working with a CP1H-XA40 on a project using analog, thermocouples, PID and high-speed pulse outputs. Not doing TOO bad for my first outing - although figuring out how to enable decimal timers slowed me up... I've gotten most of the above figured out, but I'm struggling with the hgh speed outputs. I'm a little uncertain how to implement step and direction. I'm not sure what instruction to use and not sure how the instructions relate to the set-up dialog in PLC settings. If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be appreciated Regards, Steinie

Bosch Rexroth is able to do 5th and 7th order polynomial cams in the drive. BR Encoders are accurate to +/- 20 arc seconds and 16 million bits/rev(counts/rev) of the encoder of data. Every 250 microseconds we close the position loop in the drive, so I would say we can do 12 million counts per second.
