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.

Fieldbus Information

EtherCATClosed ***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
