4.16 Motion Script Download
For time-critical applications or specific motion sequences, users
can pre-define a motion squence with simple script file. HSL-
4XMO will interpret the motion script command line-by-line and
realize the motion sequence as what users want.
This feature is much more useful because the module plays as a
standalone system and execute the motion commands by itself.
Windows context switching would not interrupt the module. Con-
sequently, it has a better timing performance than non-standalone
system.
The motion script supports standard “G” code, and many tradi-
tional users are familiar with it. Users can use any text editor pro-
gram to define their motion sequence and download it into the
HSL-4XMO. At any moment, you may want to execute it by issuing
a run command or run it cyclically by a repeat command.
