In the Tag Explorer, select both Axis System Variables and the desired
virtual axis, then select Output_limit_status in the Tag Window.

Virtual axes are enabled and disabled by a Virtual Axis Control block.

When AxisLink_status = 1, Axis_fault = 0 and Axis_status = 6 if no faults
are active on the axis, and Global_fault = 0 if no other faults are active on
any axis.

When AxisLink_status = 0, Axis_status = 12 if no faults are active on the
axis, and Global_fault = 0 if no faults are active on any axis.

Interpolator Status

Interp0_status and Interp1_status are logical (Boolean) variables that
have values of:

1 (true) if the corresponding interpolator is commanding motion

0 (false) if not

In the Tag Explorer select General System Variables, then select either
Interp0_status or Interp1_status in the Tag Window.

While Interp0_status or Interp1_status = 1 (true), Axis_status

5 for each

axis commanded by the interpolator if no faults are active on the axis. S

Interpolator Acceleration Status

Accel_status_Interp0 and Accel_status_Interp1 are logical (Boolean)
variables that have values of:

1 (true) if the corresponding interpolator is commanding vector
acceleration of the associated axes, and

0 (false) if not.

In the Tag Explorer select General System Variables, then select either
Accel_status Interp0 or Accel_status_Interp1 in the Tag Window.
