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.
-
- When Gantry mode is active (CMDSOURCE = GANTRY), a Limit Switch triggered on one axis will be reported on all axes on the drive.
Examples
Usage
0: SWLS.LIMIT0 and SWLS.LIMIT1 are not active
1: SWLS.LIMIT0 is active, SWLS.LIMIT1 is not active
2: SWLS.LIMIT0 is not active, SWLS.LIMIT 1 is active
3: SWLS.LIMIT0 and SWLS.LIMIT1 are active
Code
Axis 1 software limit switch 0 is not active and software limit switch 1 is active
-->AXIS1.SWLS.STATE 2

EtherCAT***EtherCAT is an open, high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus system. The development goal of EtherCAT was to apply Ethernet to automation applications which require short data update times (also called cycle times) with low communication jitter (for synchronization purposes) and low hardware costs COE and CANopen | AXIS1.SWLS.STATE | 0x500F | 0x2 | USINT | - | - | RO | False |
