Part 2 Programs

15. Pausing the Operation

Description

Use a declaration command HOLD to pause the moving axis temporarily via external input.

How to Use

A pause interruption operation can be executed to a moving axis (to decelerate the axis to a stop) by
declaring a HOLD command within the program.
While HOLD is input, the actuator pauses (decelerates to a stop, if currently moving) against all moving
commands in the same program.

Example of Use

HOLD 15

A declaration to execute pause if general-purpose input 15 turns ON.

Application

You can specify a global flag, instead of an input port, in Operand 1 of the HOLD command.
Use of a global flag allows the actuator to be paused from other program.
The input signal pattern and stop action can be selected using Operand 2.

0 = Contact a (Decelerates to a stop)

Ÿ Same as when Operand 2 is not specified.

1 = Contact b (Decelerates to a stop)
2 = Contact b (Decelerates to a stop, and then servo OFF

Ÿ The drive power is not cut off.)

Caution

If the actuator is paused during homing, it will start the homing sequence from the beginning upon restart.

Speed

Input port 15 ON

Input port 15 OFF

The axis stops.
