AXIS#.SWLS.STATE

Description

Returns the state of the software limit switches. When AXIS#.SWLS.EN is set to 1 or 2, bit 0 represents SWLS.LIMIT0 state and bit 1 represents SWLS.LIMIT1 state. When AXIS#.SWLS.EN is set to 3, bit 0 represents the negative limit is active and bit 1 represents the positive limit is active.

"AXIS#.CS.DEC " is executed when a SWLS is triggered. The user can set the CS.DEC value, or go with the default 10,000 rpm/s. Once the switch is triggered, a warning W6006 results, and the position/load must be moved back within the limits to remove the warning.


  • When Gantry mode is active (CMDSOURCE = GANTRY), a Limit Switch triggered on one axis will be reported on all axes on the drive.
