MOTOR OFF
Summary
Turns off motor control
Syntax
MOTOR
OFF
Description
The motor control can be disabled by using the MOTOR OFF command. After
MOTOR OFF, the drive axis can be moved freely, as long as there is no motor
brake. A monitoring of the actual position will continue to take place, i.e. the actual
position (APOS) can still be queried after MOTOR OFF.
NB!:
For a restart of a motion process after MOTOR OFF the command MOTOR ON must
be used. Only the command ERRCLR automatically activates MOTOR ON.

MOTOR ON
Summary
Turns on motor control
Syntax
MOTOR
ON
Description
The motor control can be enabled again, following a previous MOTOR OFF, by use of
the MOTOR ON command. When carrying out the MOTOR ON, the commanded
position is set to the actual position, i.e. the motor remains at the actual position.
Thus the positioning error is reset at the execution of MOTOR ON.
NB!:
The MOTOR ON command is not suitable for re-activation of position control
following an error. For this purpose, the ERRCLR command is to be used.

MOTOR STOP
Summary
Stops the drive
Syntax
MOTOR
STOP
Description
By using the MOTOR STOP command, a drive in positioning, speed or synchronizing
mode can be decelerated with programmed acceleration and arrested at the
momentary position.
A drive arrested with this command can, at a later point, via the CONTINUE
command, resume its original motion. (Exception: CONTINUE does not continue an
interrupted synchronization command.)
NB!:
If MOTOR STOP is executed in a subprogram or if NOWAIT is set to ON, then the
next lines in the program are already processed while MOTOR STOP is being
processed; the braking process runs in the background.
Therefore, in order to slow the drive down to a speed of zero it is necessary to
ascertain that no new positioning command is given during braking.
