6.2 NextMove ESB-2 indicators
6.2.1 Status display
The Status LED normally displays the unit's node number. To display information
about a specific axis, use the LED keyword (see the Mint help file). When a
specific axis is selected, the following symbols may be displayed by the Status
LED. Some characters will flash to indicate an error.
Spline. A spline move is being performed. See the
SPLINE
keyword and related
commands.
Axis enabled.
Torque mode. The NextMove ESB-2 is in Torque mode. See the
TORQUE
keyword and
related commands.
Hold to Analog. The axis is in Hold To Analog mode. See the
HTA
keyword and related
commands.
Follow and offset. When an axis is following a demand signal it may be necessary to
advance or retard the slave in relation to the master. To do this an offset move is
performed in parallel with the follow. See the
FOLLOW
and
OFFSET
keywords.
Circle. A circle move is being performed. See the
CIRCLEA
or
CIRCLER
keywords.
Cam. A Cam profile is being profiled. See the
CAM
keyword.
General error. See the
AXISERROR
keyword. The motion toolbar displays the status of
AXISERROR
, which is a bit pattern of all latched errors. See also the Error Log topics in
the help file.
Error input. The
ERRORINPUT
has been activated and generated an error.
Flying shear. A flying shear is being profiled. See the
FLY
keyword.
Position following error. A following error has occurred. See the
AXISERROR
keyword
and associated keywords. Following errors could be caused by a badly tuned drive/
motor. At higher acceleration and deceleration rates, the following error will typically be
greater. Ensure that the drive/motor is adequately tuned to cope with these
acceleration rates. The following error limit can be adjusted to suit your application (see
the
FOLERRORFATAL
and
VELFATAL
keywords). Following error could also be the
cause of encoder/resolver loss (see also the
FEEDBACKFAULTENABLE
keyword).
Follow mode. The axis is in Follow mode. See the
FOLLOW
keyword.
Homing. The axis is currently homing. See the
HOME
keyword.
Incremental move. An incremental move is being profiled. See the
INCA
and
INCR
keywords.
Jog. The axis is jogging. In the Mint help file, see the topics
JOG
,
JOGCOMMAND
and
Jog mode.
