motion programs in the MP900 Series Motion Controller User's Manual: Design and Main-
tenance before creating new motion control ladder programs.
Refer to the MP900 Series Machine Controller User's Manual: Ladder Programming (SIE-
C887-1.2) for details on writing ladder programs.
If automatically generated motion control ladder programs require considerable revision,
use the ladder editor for easy revision. Refer to Chapter 7 Ladder Logic Programming for
details.
Creating Motion Programs
Create motion programs using the motion editor. Refer to Chapter 5 Motion Programming
for details of editor operations, and refer to the MP900 Series User's Manual: Motion Pro-
gramming (SIEZ-C887-1.3) for individual motion commands.
Debugging Tool
The Debugging Tool is a testing tool for motion programs. It cannot be used offline.
The Debugging Tool monitors program execution in addition to step commands that execute
the program one step at a time, and brake point setting commands that specify steps to stop
execution.
Logoff
Check that the program is operating normally before logging off. All data (including pro-
gram data) created while online is also written to the hard disk.
To quit operations, including debugging programs, be sure to log off. Debugging can be con-
tinued by logging on again and opening the program.
1.4.6 Operation
This completes the motion programming. The Machine Controller can now be operated.
