Stepping (STEP)
11-85
Stepping (STEP)
Executes positioning at fast feed speed in a designated direction according to a desig-
nated accel/decel time constant for a designated motion range (STEP motion). The
fast feed speed can even be changed during operation. When the travel distance is
modified during operation, the value is reflected in the following step (STEP) execu-
tion.
Detailed Description
The order of operations in step feed is shown below.
1. Set initial fixed motion parameter and motion setting parameter values
to match the customer's machine.
2. Select the position control mode (PCON) (bit 2 of OWC000).
3. Sets the STEP travel distance (PLC028) and fast feed speed (OLC022
or OWC015).
4. Set the motion setting parameters used in step feed (STEP).
5. Turn the RUN command (Bit 0 of OWC001) ON.
