Real drive axis
This axis uses a drive unit which is compatible with the CiA402 drive profile connected to CC-Link IE TSN. It is counted as the
number of control axes.
Driver control mode transition
A driver device connected as a real drive axis follows the CiA402 drive protocol, and changes the control mode according to
the "Modes of operation" object output from the motion system. The driver inputs the current mode as the "Modes of operation
display" object in the motion system and displays it in AxisName.Md.Driver_Mode.
The motion system supports the operations of below modes.
Supported control mode
Homing mode (hm)
6: hm
Cyclic position
8: csp
mode (csp)
Cyclic velocity
9: csv
mode (csv)
Cyclic torque mode
10: cst
(cst)
The control mode of the driver must be csp when the driver is connected.
Control mode switching of the driver is executed at the same time when MCFB is executed. The state transition is shown
below.

*1 Transits after the axis is stopped by homing completion or error occurrence.
*2 Transits at stop completion or error occurrence.
*3 Transits when a command other than MCv_SpeedControl/MC_TorqueControl is being Aborting/Buffered.
