If there is more than one axis connected to the system, the
symbol now
jumps to the next axis position displayed. Repeat the desired destination entry
procedure or press
until all connected axes have been confirmed and
the following menu appears:
Press the
key and observe the motion devices. They will rapidly
move to the requested destinations and when motion is complete, the dis-
play will return to the motion selection menu:
To execute a relative motion, select the
function key. The same
position entry screen appears as for the absolute motion, with the excep-
tion that all position values are zero, rather than the current absolute posi-
tion. This is because motion is made relative to the current position
instead of absolute home.
Enter desired relative motion values as described earlier. When complete,
the display changes to the following menu:
Pressing the
key will start the relative motion on all axes. The dif-
ference from the absolute motion is that, when the relative motion on all
axes is finished, the display returns to the same menu. This means that you
can repeat the relative motion again and again by pressing the
key.
If you entered relative motion values on multiple axes, but only need to
move one, use the same JOG keypad convention and press a key from col-
umn
❶
or
❸
that corresponds to the axis you want to move.
One special note about the keypad in this mode. If you enter a negative
value for a relative move and you press a key in column
❸
, the move will be
in the negative direction. If a key in column
❶
is pressed, the move will be
in the positive direction. In other words, pressing a key in column
❶
will
initiate a relative move in the opposite direction than requested.
To exit the relative move mode press the
key.
To exit the move mode and return to the top level motor-on menu, press
the key
again.
Now that you know how to JOG and MOVE motion devices, experiment
with front-panel-initiated motions to become familiar with the controller
and the local motion modes.
NOTE
Remember that only motions with destinations inside the software travel
limits are allowed. Any entry outside these limits will be ignored.
