 FunctionClosed A function calculates a result according to the current value of its inputs. A function has no internal data and is not linked to declared instances. - Sends a request to the driveClosed In electrical engineering, a drive is an electronic device to provide power to a motor or servo. Control device for regulating the speed, torque and position of a motor. A unit controlling a motor using the current and timing in its coils. to clear any drive faults.

Remarks

  • See Function Blocks - General Rules about how inputs and outputs work.
  • The condition causing the drive fault has to be corrected before calling this function.
  • If the fault condition still exists when this function is called, this function sends a request to the drive but the drive faults remain.
  • This function does not resetClosed New start of the microprocessor. axis errors.
    • MC_ResetError is required to reset axis errors and possibly to re-enable or turn power on to the servo axis after the fault condition is cleared.

Usage

When there is a positiveClosed Position means a point in space which is described by different coordinates. Depending on the used system and transformation it can consist of a maximum of six dimensions (coordinates).This means three Cartesian coordinates in space and coordinates for the orientation. In ACS there can be even more than six coordinates. If the same position is described in different coordinate systems the values of the coordinates are different. transition of the EN input, this function requests a Fault Reset of the Drive for the Axis defined in the axis input of this function.
