15. Pausing the Operation
Description
Use a declaration command HOLD to pause the moving axis via an external input.
How to Use
By declaring a HOLD command in the program, the moving axis can be paused (decelerated to a
stop) via interruption.
While the HOLD input is ON, the axis is paused (decelerated to a stop) against all movement
commands in the program.
Example of Use
HOLD 20
Declaration of pause when general-purpose input 20 turns ON
Application
In addition to an input port, a global flag can also be specified in operand 1 of the HOLD command.
You can use a global flag to pause the axis from other program.
It is also possible to select the input signal pattern and stopping pattern using operand 2.
0 = Contact a (The axis decelerates to a stop)
Same as when operand 2 is not
specified.
1 = Contact b (The axis decelerates to a stop)
2 = Contact b (The axis decelerates to a stop, after which the servo turns OFF
The drive power does not turn OFF)
Note
If the actuator is paused during home return, it will repeat the home return sequence from the
beginning after the pause input turns OFF.
Input port 20 ON
Input port 20 OFF
Axis stops.
