EB 1
Enable ECAM mode
JGZ=4000
Set Z to jog at 4000
EG 0,0
Engage both X and Y when Master = 0
BGZ
Begin jog on Z axis
#LOOP;JP#LOOP,V1=0
Loop until the variable is set
EQ2000,2000
Disengage X and Y when Master = 2000

End of the program
The above example shows how the ECAM program is structured and how the commands can be given to the
controller. Figure 6.14 shows the GalilTools scope capture of the ECAM profile. This shows how the motion will be
seen during the ECAM cycles. The first trace is for the A axis, the second trace shows the cycle on the B axis and
the third trace shows the cycle of the C axis.
