AXIS#.MT.TRANSITION

Description

This keyword sets the motion task control word with the motion task transition information.

It takes the following values:

0 No Dwell
1 Dwell
2 Blend into acceleration (after MT end)
3 Blend into velocity (before MT end)

  • Transition Types 2 and 3 (Blending) may only be performed when both starting and following motion tasks are in the same direction. This motion type will turn two motion tasks into a continuous move that only comes to rest after the second move.

  • If Transition Type 2 or 3 is used on motion tasks which alternate direction, the motion tasks will still be performed but will be treated as a Dwell move with zero transition time in between motion tasks.

Examples
