Start an absolute point-to-point motion.
When this key is pressed, the controller asks for the axis number the
motion is to be performed on. Use the keypad to enter a valid axis number.
If 0 is entered, the controller will assume that you want to perform a simul-
taneous motion on all axis.
Pressing
will cause the screen to display the usual position infor-
mation for all four axes. The
symbol appears for the first axis and the
user can enter the desired destination for it. Press
to accept the
entry and advance the
symbol to the next axis. If a single axis was select-
ed or the entry is made on the last axis, the command is stored and the dis-
play returns to the Line Entry menu.

PA
— Move to absolute position.
NOTE
A simultaneous motion is not a synchronous, a linear interpolated
motion. The motion is not truly synchronized, because there are one or
more servo cycles delay between axes. For most applications this causes
an imperceptible error.
Start a relative point-to-point motion.
When this key is pressed, the controller asks for the axis number the
motion is to be performed on. Use the keypad to enter a valid axis number.
If 0 is entered, the controller will assume that you want to perform a simul-
taneous motion on all axis.
Pressing
will cause the screen to display the usual position infor-
mation for all four axes. The
symbol appears for the first axis and the
user can enter the desired relative travel for it. Press
to accept the
entry. If a single axis was selected or the entry is made on the last axis, the
command is stored and the display returns to the Line Entry menu.
Command generated
PR
— Move to relative position.
NOTE
The controller recognizes zero-travel relative motions as no-motions and
does not issue a command for them.
synchronize motion sequence commands.
This function will add to the program a command that causes the con-
troller to wait for a motion to be complete before executing the next com-
mand.
Depending on the selection, the controller can wait for all or one axis to
complete motion. When prompted, enter the axis number to wait for, or
just press
to accept the default 0 and wait for all axes.
