Remarks | This entry is not adopted when the axis parameter list is updated. Updates only become effective when the controller is rebooted. This parameter is not available under TwinCAT. The declared string for the hardware name must correspond to the entry of the hardware name of a specific I/O card (hardware unit) in the hardware configuration list (entry: device[i].name in hwconf.lis [HWCF]). Otherwise during initialisation, the position controller reports an error because it cannot detect ‘its’ hardware.
