System Functions

The Miscellaneous Input function is evaluated as 1 (true) if the input is
ON and 0 (false) if it is OFF. The Miscellaneous Input function reads the
current physical state (ON/OFF) of the input.

Axis Input

Use the

Axis_input function to include the state of the motion

controller’s axis specific, dedicated, discrete inputs in an expression.
After selecting Axis_input in the Expression Builder’s Tag Window, be
sure to select the desired Axis in the pop-up menu.

Syntax:

Axis_input[input number]

Insert a value or expression equal to the desired input number from the
table below for the argument.

Important: Do not attempt to use an argument your motion controller

does not support. A runtime fault results.
