Chapter 7 Motion Control
•
When the target velocity is NOT smaller than Start/Stop velocity, move
the axis immediately at Start/Stop velocity.
Real Data Resolution
Certain data elements and axis properties use REAL data format (single-
precision floating point format). Real data has seven-digit resolution and digit
values entered by the user that are longer than seven digits are converted. See
the examples in
If the number of digits is greater than seven (7) and the eighth digit is greater
than or equal to 5, then the seventh digit is rounded up. For example:
21474185 rounded to 2.07
21474186 rounded to 2.07
If the eighth digit is <5, no rounding is done and the seventh digit remains the
same. For example:
21474181 rounded to 2.07

Tooltip Error Value
(1)
(1) On the axis configuration page in Connected Components Workbench, an input field with a red border indicates that the value that
has been entered is invalid. A tooltip message should let you know the expected range of values for the parameter. The range of
values presented in the tooltip messages are also presented in REAL data format.
