Invert Direction of 3rd Party COE Servo

[GoHawks]

Hello,

Is there a way to invert the direction of an axis on the Motion app with COE?

My customer is using a 3rd party servo which can not invert the direction/negate the position reference on the drive side. This particular axis is going to be used in a gantry configuration and thus needs to synchronize to another axis which is mechanically mirrored.

Therefore when one axis moves forward, the other will move in the opposite direction when put into gantry mode. This is undesirable.

Go Hawks.

You can view the third-party servo data object table, 607E (instruction polarity),

Control the corresponding bit to control the direction.

Thank you for the quick reply, JHU1XI1.

I put this parameter in the startup parameter list, which should resolve the issue.
