Programming System Variables
Overview
This chapter provides information to help you program the module
for the command mode of operation. This chapter includes the
following topics:
•
Using position initialization commands
•
Using online configuration commands
•
Understanding status information
•
Understanding SLC Servo Module processor status
Using Position Initialization
Commands
The initialization commands that are discrete block commands from
the SLC Processor are:
•
Home axis
•
Set home
•
Set retract position
•
Preset position
Using the Home Axis Command
When you execute the Home Axis command, the following conditions
must exist before the homing operation can begin:
•
The motion control system must be out of Estop.
•
There must be no motion in progress.
If the system is in Estop, an error is sent to the SLC processor. If there
is motion in progress, that motion is canceled. Home axis parameters
for word 5, bit 0 appear in the table below.
