Configuring Axis Use

Motion continues.

The controller indicates a fault status.

To configure the Fault Action page, make one of the above three entries in
the following fields:

Hard Overtravel

Select the action that occurs when servo axis travel touches a travel limit
switch, thereby causing a Hardware_overtravel_fault.

Note: Enable the use of travel limit switches in the Overtravel page of

this dialog box.

Soft Overtravel

Select the action that occurs when servo axis travel reaches a software
travel limit, thereby causing a Software_overtravel_fault.

Note: Enable the use of software travel limits in the Overtravel page of

this dialog box.

Position Error

Select the action that occurs in response to a servo axis
Position_error_fault .

Note: A position error fault occurs when the difference between

Command Position and Actual Position exceeds the Error
Tolerance set in the Dynamics page of this dialog box.

!

ATTENTION: Selecting the wrong fault action for
your application can cause a dangerous condition. Keep
clear of moving machinery.
