Syntax x x P A n n
Parameters
Description x x [ i n t ] A x i s number.
nn [float] A b s o l u t e position destination.
Range x x — 1 to 8.
nn A n y position within the software travel limits.
Units x x — None.
nn D e f i n e d m o t i o n units.
Defaults x x M i s s i n g : E r r o r B.
Out of range: E r r o r B.
Floating point: E r r o r A.
nn M i s s i n g : E r r o r C.
Out of range: E r r o r C.
Description T h i s command initiates an absolute motion. When received, the selected
axis x x will move, with the predefined acceleration and velocity to the
absolute position specified by nn.
NOTE
If the motor power is turned off, MO command which turns motor power
on is executed before PA command, except if the controller has detected
a fault condition.
NOTE
Even though the command is accepted while a motion is in progress,
care should be taken not to reverse direction of motion. When this com-
mand is received, the controller verifies if it will produce a change of
direction. If so, it will refuse the execution and set error code D.
NOTE
If the axis was previously defined as a synchronized axis, PA command
will only set the destination but not generate a motion. For synchronized
axes use SE command to execute a motion.
Returns N o n e .
Errors A U n k n o w n message code.
B I n c o r r e c t axis number.
C P a r a m e t e r out of limits.
D U n a u t h o r i z e d execution.
Rel. Commands A C S e t acceleration.
PR M o v e to relative position.
ST S t o p motion.
VA S e t velocity.
Example 3 V A 8 I S e t velocity of axis #2 to 8 units/sec.
3PA12.34 I M o v e axis #3 to absolute position 12.34.
