active even without any motor motion if the master axis stops.
Index.#.Command Complete
The Index.#.CommandComplete source will activate when the specific index completes its deceleration ramp. It will remain
active until the specific index is initiated again. If the drive stop destination is used during an Index, then the
Index.#.CommandComplete will not activate.
Index.#.Command In Progress
The Index.#.CommandInProgress source is active throughout an entire index profile. The source activates at the beginning of
the index acceleration ramp, and deactivates at the end of the index deceleration ramp. During a synchronized index, this
source could be active even without any motor motion if the master axis stops.
Index.#.Decelerating
This source is active while an index is decelerating from its’ target velocity. Once the index reaches zero velocity, or its’ next
target velocity, the Index.#.Decelerating source will deactivate.
Index.#.LimitDistHit
Activated when the registration sensor is not found before the Limit Distance is traveled. If the Registration Window is enabled
the sensor must be activated inside the window to be recognized.
Index.#.PLSStatus
Controlled by the PLSOn and PLSOff Points which are relative to the distance commanded since the start of the index.
Activated when index distance command is in between the PLSOn point and PLSOff points.
Index.ProfileLimited
For timed indexes, if the values for Max. Velocity, Max. Acceleration, and Max. Deceleration are such that the distance cannot
be covered in the specified time, the Index.ProfileLimited flag will activate when the index is initiated, indicating that the index
cannot be performed as desired. The Index.ProfileLimited flag will remain active until cleared using the
Index.ResetProfileLimited assignment or program instruction. In this situation, the index will still operate, but the time will be
extended. In other words, the profile will be performed using the maximums values and still cover the specified distance, but
not in the specified time.
Destinations
Index.ResetProfileLimited
If a timed index was not able to complete in the specified time, the Index.ProfileLimited source will activate.
Index.ResetProfileLimited is used to clear the ProfileLimited flag and acknowledge that the index did not complete in the
specified time. This can be activated through an assignment, or through a user program. This function is edge-sensitive, so
holding it active will not prevent ProfileLimited from activating.
Index.#.Initiate
The Index.#.Initiate destination is used to initiate the specific index. The Index is initiated on the rising edge of this function. An
Index cannot be initiated if there is an Home, Jog, or Program in progress, or if the Stop destination or if a travel limit is active.
It can be activated from an assignment or from a program.
Index.#.Sensor Trigger
If registration to Sensor is selected, when this destination activates, motor position is captured and is used as the registration
point for registration type indexes.
3.36.3 Adding and Deleting Indexes
Adding or removing indexes from the user configuration can be done in three ways. Indexes may only be added or deleted
while offline.
Toolbar button Method
The Add Index button (shown below) will add a new index to the user configuration. Indexes are added in sequential order.
Clicking on the button will add an index and bring you to the Index setup view allowing you to enter the index parameters.
The Delete Index button (shown below) will delete an index from the user configuration. The highest numbered index will
automatically be deleted unless a different index is selected on the Indexes heading screen. To delete a specific index, click on
the Motion\Indexes branch in the Hierarchy Tree. From this view, select the specific Index you wish to delete, and then click on
the Delete Index button.
PowerTools Pro Menu Bar Method
Adding an Index
From the PowerTools Pro menu bar, select Edit/New/Index. An index will be added in sequential order and you will be brought
to the Index setup view allowing you to enter the index parameters.
Deleting an Index
Navigate to the Indexes View, and select the Index you wish to delete. From the PowerTools Pro menu bar, select Edit/Delete/
Index. The selected Index will be deleted from the configuration.
