AXIS#.SWLS.EN

Description

This parameter enables the software travel limit switches.

The software limit switches are only active if the axis is homed.

Examples

Usage

0: Disable both software limit switches

1: Enable software limit switch 0, AXIS#.SWLS.LIMIT0

2: Enable software limit switch 1, AXIS#.SWLS.LIMIT1

3: Enable both software limit switches

If AXIS#.SWLS.EN = 3, then whichever limit switch is set to a greater value will be used as the upper limit switch. For all other values of AXIS#.SWLS.EN, use AXIS#.SWLS.LIMIT0 for the lower limit switch and AXIS#.SWLS.LIMIT1 for the upper limit switch.

"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.

Code

Axis 1 lower limit switch set to 1000 and upper limit switch set to 5000. Axis 1 home position is set and then both software limit switches are enabled.

-->AXIS1.SWLS.LIMIT0 1000

-->AXIS1.SWLS.LIMIT1 5000

-->AXIS1.HOME.SET

-->AXIS1.SWLS.EN 3
