Appendix A: Command Reference

A-51

Command Value: Unused

When a 'P' command is given all initialization parameters are updated.

Tip:

If you wish to change parameters without stopping the axis, see the Set Parameter On-the-Fly

commands.

Non-pressure/force Axes
The minimum requirement of this command is to set the Extend and Retract Limits to their proper
values (see Start-Up and Tuning). When a 'P' command is given, the RMC will copy the Actual
Position of the axis into the Target and Command Positions. Therefore the axis will be in closed
loop control around its current position.

Pressure/Force Axes
When this command is received, the RMC will copy the Actual Pressure of the axis into the
Target Pressure status field.

A.2.6 Quit Events Command

Character: Q
Decimal: 81
Hexadecimal: 0x51
Command Value: Unused

This command stops the event control sequence on the axis the command is issued to. Any
motion commands in progress on the axis are not stopped. Therefore, if an axis is currently
moving to 4.000”, it will continue moving to that position; if an axis is in open loop with 1.000V
drive, the drive will continue holding that drive, etc. If you desire to stop the axis at the same time,
look at the Halt and Disable Drive Output commands.

Note:

RMC100 CPU firmware dating prior to 19980414 supports event sequences only on

position axes, issuing this command to a pressure or force axis will result in a parameter error.

A.2.7 Set Pressure Ramp Time Command

Character: \
Decimal: 92
Hexadecimal: 0x5C
Command Value: Milliseconds

This command sets the Ramp Time value to the Command Value. Refer to Ramp Time for details
on this field.

The change in the Ramp Time value will take affect immediately if the axis is regulating pressure
at the time. The remaining ramp time is taken as a fraction of the entire Ramp Time and
multiplied by the new Ramp Time.

Example:

Suppose that an axis was to ramp the pressure from 2000psi to 2200psi over two seconds.
Therefore, the Ramp Time would have been 2000 milliseconds. Suppose that one and a half
