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
