The Yaskawa EtherCAT SERVOPACK controls the electronic gear parameters Pn20E and Pn210. Changes made by the user have no effect. After a power cycle they are overwritten by the SERVOPACK.
For the SGDV EtherCAT SERVOPACK, Pn20E and Pn210 are always set to 1.
For the SGD7S EtherCAT SERVOPACK, Pn20E and Pn210 are set so that the resolution is 1,048,576 increments per rotation. When using motors with 24-bit encoders (SGM7J, SGM7A, or SGM7G) Pn20E will be set to 16 and Pn210 will be set to 1.
To adjust the reference units seen by the EtherCAT Master use objects 2701:01h and 2702:02h (PnB02 and PnB04).
