Important: Until the registration event is set up, the value of the

Registration_status variable is undefined and may be 0 or 1.

If no registration event has previously been set up for the axis,
Registration_status is 0. If a previous registration event has been set up,
Registration_status is 1, if the previous event occurred and 0 if not.

Registration events are set up using a Watch Control block with Arm and
Registration selected, and canceled using the Watch Control block with
Disarm and Registration selected.

Time Lock Cam Status

TCAM_status is a logical (Boolean) variable which has values of:

1 (true) if the axis is executing a time-lock cam

0 (false) if not

In the Tag Explorer, select both Axis System Variables and the desired
physical or imaginary axis, then select TCAM_status in the Tag Window.

Time-lock cams are initiated by a Time Lock Cam block, and can be
stopped by a Stop Motion block.

When TCAM_status = 1, Lock_status = 0, and Axis_status = 3 if no faults
are active on the axis.
