Set up a machine

The axis settings a multi-axis machine depends on, as a checklist.

For a machine, this step comes down to the axis settings from step 3. Check each of them before you move on:

Setting For a machine
Position transformation Required. Every axis must read its position in rad or m, in the right direction
Limiter Required. Keeps each axis inside its travel, and within its velocity and acceleration
Setpoint jump detector Recommended: stops the machine when a target jumps
Position window detector Strongly recommended: stops the machine before an axis leaves its safe range, so it does not hit itself or anything around it
Other window detectors Optional: tracking error, velocity, acceleration and torque
