Automatic Mode (Auto)

At a Glance

Automatic mode is used for executing XMOVE functions.

The debugging screen displays information for 2 or 3 axes, according to the number of interpolated axes.

The following screen shows interpolation channel automatic mode (for 3 interpolated axes):

Description of Movement Field

This table shows the display zones for the Movement field:

Display zone	Description
Current X, Y, Z	Displays the current position of the moving part on the X, Y and Z axes respectively. This value is expressed in measurement units defined in the configuration
Target X, Y, Z	Displays the setpoint position (reach position) on the X, Y and Z axes respectively
F Current	Displays the current moving part speed using the measurement unit defined in configuration.
F Target	Displays the moving part setpoint speed (speed to be attained)
Following error X, Y, Z	Displays the deviation between the calculated setpoint position and the real position of the moving part (the following error) on the X, Y and Z axes respectively
N	Indicates the step number for the instruction which is in progress
G9x	Indicates the movement type for the instruction which is in progress
G	Indicates the instruction code which is in progress
Space	Indicates the space where the movement in progress is being carried out (0 = XY, 1 = XZ, 2 = YZ, 3 = XYZ)
Direction X, Y,	+ Direction: indicates the part is moving in a positive direction on the X, Y and Z axes respectively - Direction: indicates the part is moving in a negative direction on the X, Y and Z axes respectively

Description of Commands

This table describes the command zone:

Command	Description
STOP F8	Stops the moving part on all interpolated axes
CMV	Used to enter a value from 0 to 2000 which determines the speed multiplier coefficient (0.000 to 2000 in intervals of 1/1000)

Description of Commands Field

This table describes the buttons in the Commands field:

Command	Description
Pause	Commands the moving part to stop at the end of a movement with a stop in progress
Step by step	Changes the axis to step by step mode
Next step	Step by step mode activates the waiting movement

Description of Axis Field

This table shows the display zones for the Axis field:

LED	State	Indication
OK	Lit	All axes are in operating state
Referenced	Lit	All axes are referenced
Stopped	Lit	All axes are at a stop (moving part stationary)
Feed hold	Lit	Axis movement is suspended (Feed hold)
AT Point	Lit	The movement in progress is finished and the moving part is in the target window
DONE	Lit	The movement(s) in progress is (are) finished
NEXT	Lit	The following movement command can be sent to the module

Description of I/O Field

This table shows the display zones for the I/O field:

LED	Indication
X, Y or Z Came Evt	State of signal (0 or 1) on Event input for X, Y or Z axes
Aux X, Y or Z	State of signal (0 or 1) on auxiliary input for X, Y or Z axes

1 = LED lit, 0 = LED off

Description of Faults Field

This table shows the display zones for the Faults field:

LED / Button	State	Indication
Command Refused	Lit	The last XMOVE received has been refused
Hardware	Lit	External hardware error on one of the interpolated axes
Axis	Lit	Application fault on one of the interpolated axes
Ack.	/	Fault acknowledgment button. Activating this button acknowledges all faults which have disappeared
