AX- Ser i es Mo t i o n Co n t r o l l er I n s t r u c t i o n s Ma n u a l
AxisX ~ AxisC in the AxisGroup Parameters represent the axes 1 ~ 6 in the axis group respectively, which denotes a

6D space, i.e. coordinate axes X, Y, Z, A, B and C. No value is required for the coordinate axis which is not set.
If the Value field for axes in the AxisGroup Parameters is not filled in with the names of axes, no error will occur when

DMC_GroupEnable has started. However, the axis group will report an error if it starts to move the axis the name of
which is not entered in the Value field.
If there are same axis names or invalid axis names in the Value field for axes in the AxisGroup Parameters, an error will

occur when DMC_GroupEnable is run.
At least one axis is specified in the Value field for axes in the AxisGroup Parameters. Otherwise, an error will occur

when DMC_GroupEnable is run.
Whether the specified single axis is in Standstill state or not will not be judged when DMC_GroupEnable is run. After

the axis group is created, the state of the axis group will be switched from GroupDisable to GroupStandby and the axes
in the axis group will maintain the current state.
If axes in the group are in ErrorSTOP state, the axis group state will change from

GroupDisable->GroupStandby->GroupErrorStop.
For more details on axis states, refer to Axis State Transitions in AX-3 Series Operation Manual.

Troubleshooting

When an error occurs during the execution of the instruction, bError will change to True and the axes will stop running.

Refer to ErrorID (Error Code) to address the problem.
For error codes and corresponding troubleshooting, refer to Appendix of this manual.

Programming Example

Based on the limitation of the number of axes for simultaneous motion and the actual demand of axes,

DMC_GroupEnable switches the axis group state from GroupDisable to GroupStandby for the upcoming axis group
motion.
