To illustrate the ability to interrogate the motion status, consider the first motion segment of our
example, #LMOVE, where the X axis moves toward the point X=5000. Suppose that when X=3000,
the controller is interrogated using the command 'MG _AV'. The returned value will be 3000. The
value of _CS, _VPX and _VPY will be zero.
Now suppose that the interrogation is repeated at the second segment when Y=2000. The value of
_AV at this point is 7000, _CS equals 1, _VPX=5000 and _VPY=0.
Make a coordinated linear move in the ZW plane. Move to coordinates 40000,30000 counts at a
vector speed of 100000 counts/sec and vector acceleration of 1000000 counts/sec 2 .

Note that the above program specifies the vector speed, VS, and not the actual axis speeds VZ and
VW. The axis speeds are determined by the DMC-1000 from:

VS VZ
The resulting profile is shown in Figure 6.2.

Return distance traveled
Segment counter - returns number of the segment in the sequence, starting at zero.
Returns length of vector (resets after 2147483647)
Returns number of available spaces for linear segments in DMC-1000 sequence buffer.
Zero means buffer full. 512 means buffer empty.
Return the absolute coordinate of the last data point along the trajectory.
