Sample Program 5:
Sample Program 5 illustrates a typical 3 axis application where one DPE25611 (Axis 0) is control-
ling the other two axes (Axis 1 and Axis 2) by using the send text string commands. The program
first sets the accelerations, base speeds and maximum speeds for each axis. It then is enabling
Axis 0 and Axis 1 to use the thumbwheel switch that is connected to each unit for indexing. The
direction is then set for Axis 0 and Axis 1 and these two axes are then told to index the distance
set in each thumbwheel at the same time. The program then waits for the motion to finish before
it tells Axis 2 to move. Axis 2 first moves in the negative direction waits for the index to finish,
and then moves back in the positive direction. After Axis 2 is finished moving, Axis 0 and Axis 1
are both sent back to their zero positions at the same time. The program is then repeated.
