Pulse Command Mode

Use this when an external controller such as a PLC drives the motor directly with pulse signals.

How it works

The pulse count multiplied by the electronic gear ratio gives the motor movement.

pulses × (A ÷ B) = motor movement (inc)

A and B have no factory default — they depend on your motor, gearbox, and pulse source. The drive configuration tool calculates them for you.

Worth knowing

Note

The gearbox ratio does not affect the frequency limit. Pulses drive the motor itself; the gearbox sits downstream. It only changes how many pulses make one output-shaft revolution.

Check the drive model number first — some models have no pulse input pins at all, and no amount of configuration will make them work.
