FunctionMLAxisPowerPipe Network motion icon

Description

Powers up or down the axis. Enables or disables a Servo drive or Stepper drive mapped to the axis.

When the axis is powered up, the ReferencePosition is modified to equal the ActualPosition. For that, KAS updates the GeneratorPosition. See About Associated Data on Positions for more information.


  • Powering on an axis affects the position and motion state of an axis. MLAxisPower should not be called with the On input flag set to True while the axis is in motion.
