SYNTAX xx AU nn or xx AU ?
PARAMETERS
Description xx [ int ] - axis number
nn [float] - acceleration value
Range
xx - 1 to MAX AXES
nn - 0 to 2e+9, or ? to read current setting
Units
xx - none
nn - predefined units / second2
Defaults
xx missing: error 37, AXIS NUMBER MISSING
out of range: error 9, AXIS NUMBER OUT OF RANGE
nn missing: error 38, COMMAND PARAMETER MISSING
out of range: error xx11, MAXIMUM ACCELERATION
EXCEEDED
error xx1, PARAMETER OUT OF RANGE
DESCRIPTION
This command is used to set the maximum acceleration and deceleration value for an
axis. This command remains effective even if the requested axis is member of a group.
In this case, two error messages "GROUP MAXIMUM ACCELERATION
EXCEEDED" or "GROUP MAXIMUM DECELERATION EXCEEDED" are generated
if the commanded value is less than group acceleration or deceleration respectively.
(Refer to Advanced Capabilities section for a detailed description of grouping and related
commands)
RETURNS If the “?” sign takes the place of nn value, this command reports the current
setting
REL. COMMANDS VA - set velocity
PA - execute an absolute motion
PR - execute a relative motion
AG - set deceleration
AC - et acceleration
EXAMPLE AU? | read maximum allowed acceleration/deceleration of axis # 2
10 | controller returns a value of 10 units/s2
2AC9 | set acceleration to 9 units/s2
2AG6 | set deceleration to 6 units/s2
2AU15 | set axis # 2 maximum acceleration/deceleration to 15 units/s2
2AU? | read maximum allowed acceleration & deceleration of axis # 2
15 | controller returns a value of 15 units/s
