Good morning,
I should, with a LMC PRO2 and sercos axis, connect in gearing two axis (same velocity).
I don't find the function, in the pacdrivelib (version 1.10.1), to do that.
Thanks in advance
Andrea Arduini

Hi Andrea
You have two options.
If you want use the PacDrive-Lib (Or the PacDrive Template which already contains the Pac-Drive_Lib and the PD_AxisModul-Lib) you can couple the two axes together with the Multicam (master slave with the same CAM curve).
You operate your master (slave1) in Endless-mode and slave two in multicam with the same curve, e.g. 0-360, as the master (slave1).
The second option is to use the FB "MC_GearIn" from the Sercos3PlcOpenMc-Lib.
But I've never done it myself. But it should work.
Greetings
