System-wide Link Types
Link Type - End of sequence
Link Type: 0 (decimal 0)
Link Value: Reserved
Range: must be 0
When this Link Type is encountered the step sequence stops: no additional steps are
executed unless they are started as a new sequence. We recommend using Step 0 as the
last Step of all chains so they all end in a known spot. If Step 0 is used this way, its link
type must be zero.
Link Type - Time Delay
Link Type: D
Link Value: Number of milliseconds to delay
Range: 0 to 65,535 milliseconds
A timer is started for this link type. When the timer reaches the value specified by the
Link Value, the next event step in the sequence is executed. Simply enter the number of
milliseconds you wish to delay in the Link Value.
Current Axis Link Types
Link Type - Current Axis Absolute Limit Switch
Link Type: L (Target Position) or l (Target Position)
Link Value: Limit Position
Range: Any valid position in position units
These link types are used to detect when the current axis crosses a position. This link
type can be used to change speeds on-the-fly or trigger events on other axes. The Link
Value holds the Limit position in position units. Either the Target Position or Actual
Position can be used to compare with the Limit position.
NOTE: The link is made once the position crosses the limit, rather than being made
whenever the position is on one side or the other of the limit. If you wish to
wait for the axis to be on one side or the other, use the Any Axis Position link
type.
