Action Parameter
You can set the Action parameter to Stop, Wait for Start, or Next Index.
Stop
This action stops and holds zero velocity while remaining enabled. Upon
assertion of the Start Index digital input or the Start Motion bit in the EtherNet/
IP Output Assembly, the drive begins executing the index in the Index system
parameter.
Figure 61 - Example of Stop and Hold Index Action
Wait For Start
This action waits for either the Start Motion bit to transition in the EtherNet/IP
Output Assembly or for the Start Index configured digital input to perform an
active transition.
