Subject: Servo System bias compensation
Hi All,
I am using a servo driver which has a bias reference input. therefore when the Kflop axis sends a zero DAC the motor moves. Is there anyway to have the DAC output inside the Kflop biased to some constant value? I guess a component simillar to the deadband that can generate this bias refernce will be very helpful in this situation.
What do you think?
Regards

Azeddien,
 
You can set an output offset in C code using:
 
chan[X].OutputOffset = K;
 
where X is the axis number and K is the DAC offset.  When the axis is disabled the value K will be sent to the DAC.
 
But the best way to be sure to have no motion is to disable the amplifier.
