This property associates an axis with a drive. The actual drive address is set by a DIP switch on the drive. If an axis is to be simulated, the drive address of that axis is set to zero. The association may be set explicitly, using this property, or the association may be set during Sercos communication phase 1, when the Sercos driver scans the ring for drives. You must explicitly ask that the ring to be scanned for drives, using the SERCOS.SCAN property.
