Command Summary - Independent Axis - Galil Motion Control DMC-1600 Series User Manual

Table of Contents

The Begin (BG) command can be issued for all axes either simultaneously or independently.

XYZ or W axis specifiers are required to select the axes for motion. When no axes are specified,

this causes motion to begin on all axes.

The speed (SP) and the acceleration (AC) can be changed at any time during motion, however, the

deceleration (DC) and position (PR or PA) cannot be changed until motion is complete.

Remember, motion is complete when the profiler is finished, not when the actual motor is in

position. The Stop command (ST) can be issued at any time to decelerate the motor to a stop

before it reaches its final position.

An incremental position movement (IP) may be specified during motion as long as the additional

move is in the same direction. Here, the user specifies the desired position increment, n. The new

target is equal to the old target plus the increment, n. Upon receiving the IP command, a revised

profile will be generated for motion towards the new end position. The IP command does not

require a begin. Note: If the motor is not moving, the IP command is equivalent to the PR and

BG command combination.
