Manual jog (jogging)

This status enables manual traversing of the drive system ("inching mode").

  • In the "Jogging" status, the following actions are carried out:
    • Creation of the motion profile for the "Jogging" function.
    • Evaluation of the traversing range limit switches during manual homing.
    • Retracting from traversing range limit switches.
  • The axis moves as long as the corresponding control input has been set.
    • If the reference is known and the software limit positions are activated, a positioning to the corresponding software limit position is carried out if manual jog was not exited manually before by resetting the control inputs. The drive brakes with the set deceleration to the position of the corresponding software limit position.
    • If the reference is not known or the software limit positions are not activated, the axis will only stop at the hardware limit switch (target: Ramping down with "ErrorStop" deceleration).
Note!

The profile parameters for jogging can be set in the parameters of subindex 181 ... 184 of the AxisRef .

Manual jog (jogging)

If the parameters must often be changed from the application, this can be carried out using the L_MC1P_SetBasicParameter FB.

Inputs for this operating mode

Name

Data type

Information/possible settings

xJogPos

BOOL

TRUE

The axis can be traversed in positive direction with the profile parameters set in subindex 181 ... 184 (inching mode).

  • If xJogNeg is TRUE as well, the axis is neither traversed nor stopped.

xJogNeg

BOOL

TRUE

The axis can be traversed in negative direction with the profile parameters set in subindex 181 ... 184 (inching mode).

  • If xJogPos is TRUE as well, the axis is neither traversed nor stopped.
