Decelerating
The axis decelerates (slows down).
(Tag of technology object: <Axis name>.StatusBits.Deceleration)
Table 9- 54 Status of the motion mode
Status
Description
Positioning
The axis executes a positioning task of motion control instruction "MC_MoveAbsolute" or
"MC_MoveRelative" or of the control panel.
(Tag of technology object: <Axis name>.StatusBits.PositioningCommand)
Speed Command
The axis executes a task at set speed of motion control instruction "MC_MoveVelocity" or
"MC_MoveJog" or of the control panel.
(Tag of technology object: <Axis name>.StatusBits.SpeedCommand)
Homing
The axis executes a homing task of motion control instruction "MC_Home" or the control
panel.
(Tag of technology object: <Axis name>.StatusBits.Homing)

PTO and HSC already used
A second axis is using the same PTO and HSC and is enabled with "MC_Power".
(Tag of technology object: <Axis name>.ErrorBits.HwUsed)
Configuration error
The "Axis" technology object was incorrectly configured or editable configuration data
were modified incorrectly during runtime of the user program.
(Tag of technology object: <Axis name>.ErrorBits.ConfigFault)
General Error
An internal error has occurred.
(Tag of technology object: <Axis name>.ErrorBits.SystemFault)
