Appendix

15. Pausing of Operation

Description

Use the declaration command HOLD to pause the moving axis via an external input.

How to Use

When a HOLD command is declared in the program, the moving axis can be interrupted and paused
(decelerated to a stop). While the HOLD signal is input, the axes moving under all move commands in the
same program are paused (decelerated to a stop).

Example of Use

Application

Not only an input port, but also a global flag can be specified for operand 1 in the HOLD command.
By using a global flag, you can also pause the moving axis from other program.
If operand 2 is used, you can select desired input signal and stop patterns.

0 = Contact a (Deceleration to stop)

Ÿ Same as when operand 2 is not specified

1 = Contact b (Deceleration to stop)
2 = Contact b (Deceleration to stop, followed by servo OFF

Ÿ Drive power not turned OFF)

Note

If the actuator is paused while returning to its home, when the operation is resumed the actuator will
perform the return-to-home sequence from the beginning.
