C.4.51. InterruptMotionReturnType
This task parameter defines the way the axes return, after their motion was interrupted via
the InterruptMotion task parameter. After axes motion has been interrupted, you may
move the axes via any valid Immediate Mode commands. The default return type is 0.
Typically, return type 2 or 4 would be used to maintain programmed position.
0 - RETURNTYPE_NULL
This return type will not return the axes to the absolute positions that they were
at, at the time when the interrupt occurred. The motion command that was
interrupted will not be completed upon return from the interrupt. Program
execution will continue on the CNC line after the CNC line that was interrupted.
1 - RETURNTYPE_START
This return type will return the axes to the absolute positions that they were at, at
the start of the interrupted line. Program execution will continue on the CNC line
that was interrupted, restarting the interrupted CNC command line from the start
of the line.
2 - RETURNTYPE_INTERRUPT (used by the Jog and Return Mode)
This return type will return the axes to the absolute positions that they were at,
when the interrupt occurred. The interrupted move will be completed upon
return from the interrupt and program execution will continue on the CNC line
after the interrupted line.
3 - RETURNTYPE_END
This return type will return the axes to the absolute positions that they would
have been at, at the end of the interrupted line, had it not been interrupted.
Program execution will continue on the CNC line after the interrupted line.
4 - RETURNTYPE_OFFSET (used by the Jog and Offset Mode)
This return type will not return the axes to the absolute positions that they were
at, at the time when the interrupt occurred. The interrupted move will be
completed upon return from the interrupt and program execution will continue
on the CNC line after the interrupted line.
C.4.52. External Jog Key Example
All of the following applies to the JogPair2Axis1, JogPair2Axis2, JogPair2Mode, etc.
task parameters also, which allow two other axes to be jogged simultaneously.
Define the first axis via the JogPair1Axis1 task parameter.
Define the second axis via the JogPair1Axis2 task parameter.
Define the Jog Mode via the JogPair1Mode task parameter.
Define the virtual inputs for the Plus and Minus Inputs for Axis1.
Define the Plus and Minus Inputs for Axis 2.
Enable the jog keys via the JogPair1EnableIn task parameter.
