MechPosition shows the actual position that is transferred from the drive via the Sercos bus in units. It is indicated on the drive shaft (gear box output side). The YOffsetPosition from the Y offset generator is included (see Reference and Actual Values).
Coordinate displacements with SetPos (FC_SetposDual(), FC_SetposGroup(), FC_SetposSingle()) affect this parameter. The parameter Direction must be taken into account when interpreting MechPosition.
The value of MechPosition is calculated once every Sercos cycle (CycleTime). Relative to the actual position at the drive shaft, the position is delayed by the time ShaftDelay. This means, a position including YOffsetPosition is indicated which is delayed to the drive shaft by the time ShaftDelay.
NOTE: The parameter value is transferred from the slave to the master via the real-time channel of the Sercos. If the Sercos bus is not in phase 4, then a standard value is indicated here. If the Sercos bus is in phase 4 (operating phase), then the parameter value is transferred and indicated via the Sercos bus. This parameter has no meaning for asynchronous motors without encoder (in open-loop V / f control mode, ControlMode = open-loop control / 1).
