Control Program Integration
Introduction
The previous chapter demonstrated how the HMI used the Simple Motion Control to jog, set direction,
enable/disable, clear faults, and adjust the speed of an axis while the HMI is in Operator mode. It also
explained that when the HMI is in Program mode, the PLC Axis User Program controls the axis via the
Program mode commands. In this chapter, you will integrate your control program into the Simple Motion
Control ladder logic. You will explore the Simple Motion Control ladder logic structure, the modes of
operation, and the Program mode commands. You will learn how to use the Program mode commands in
the Axis User Program routine for axis control as well as in the Machine Control routine for simultaneous
control of all your axes.
Additionally, you will learn how to calculate and configure a different gear ratio if a higher degree of precision
is needed for your application.
Before You Begin
• Verify that you have completed all of the steps in
• Verify that all the devices are connected per the Simple Motion Control CAD wiring diagram.
• Verify that the MicroLogix 1400 controller, Ultra1500 drive, and PanelView terminal have power
applied to them.
• Verify that the MicroLogix 1400 controller, Ultra1500 drive, and PanelView terminal are all properly
configured and communicating correctly as explained in
