• Loop Expression will continue to loop while the expression is
true. Expressions are valid comparisons in the form of x=2,
y>7, or similar items that evaluate to Boolean true or false. This
is an advanced event allowing anything to be specified, and is
NOT checked for errors. If unsure, avoid using this event.
• Loop Fixed Number will loop for the number of times
specified.
Move Events: Start and End
• Move Start has the user specify all of the move parameters.
! Acceleration is entered in user units.
! Deceleration is entered in user units.
! S-Curve is the amount of motion smoothing applied to the
move. A value of 1 indicates no S-Curve and .004
indicates the maximum S-Curve. Applying S-Curve
smooths the acceleration and lengthens the move time.
! Speed is entered in user units.
! Move Type can either be absolute or incremental.
Absolute moves go to that absolute position (based on
where the home position is), while incremental moves
advance a certain distance from where they are currently.
! Position is entered in user units.
• Move End requires selection of either profiler or encoder.
! Profiler will wait until the controller finishes calculating
the move and sends the commands to the motor.
! Encoder will wait for the actual position of the motor to
reach the calculated position.
Set Events: Output and Variable
• Set Output specifies an output number and a state (either on or
off).
• Set Variable specifies a variable name and value.
