MotionView Software Configuration
Chapter 5
Start Index
During powerup the Kinetix 300 drive does one of the following:
•
Automatically start the indexing program upon enabling of the drive.
•
Waiting for a digital input transition before starting the index.
•
Waiting for a software signal over EtherNet/IP network before starting the
index.
When the drive is configured for AutoStart Index, the drive begins executing the
configured index immediately after the drive enables.
If the drive is not configured for AutoStart Indexing, the drive does not begin
executing the configured index until either the Start Motion bit transitions in the
EtherNet/IP Output Assembly or the digital input configured for Start Index is
transitioned to an active state.
The configuration for Start Index requires setting the following parameters either
over EtherNet/IP Explicit Messaging or through the MotionView software
interface.
Table 52 - Start Index Configuration
Abort Indexing
An active state terminates an indexing sequence by decelerating to a stop and
holding zero velocity while remaining enabled. No further indexing is executed
until commanded by the user or controller.
The configuration for Abort Index can be set in the add-on profile or through
MotionView software interface as a digital input.
