MC_GrpStop

 Function Block - Performs a controlled motion stop of all axes in the group.

Inputs

Input	Data Type	Range	Unit	Default	Description
Execute	BOOL	FALSE, TRUE	N/A	No default	On the rising edge, the command to stop all of the axes in the group is initiated.
AxesGroup	AXES_GROUP_REF	No range	N/A	No default	The axes group the axes are stopped in.
Deceleration	LREAL	No range	User unit/sec2	No default	The path deceleration rate for all axes in the group. If Deceleration is 0 or negative, the deceleration parameter of the active move is used. If Deceleration is less than the deceleration of the active move, the deceleration parameter of the active move is used. This guarantees the stop action completes before the endpoint of the move is reached. See Limitations on Acceleration and Jerk.
Jerk	LREAL	No range	User unit/sec3	No default	The path jerk for all axes in the group. If Jerk is negative, the jerk parameter of the active move is used. If Jerk is zero, then zero jerk is used. If Jerk is less than the jerk of the active move, the jerk parameter of the active move is used. This guarantees the stop action completes before the endpoint of the move is reached. See Limitations on Acceleration and Jerk.

Outputs

Output	Data Type	Range	Unit	Description
Done	BOOL	FALSE, TRUE	N/A	If TRUE, the command completed successfully.
Busy	BOOL	FALSE, TRUE	N/A	TRUE from the moment the EXECUTE input is TRUE until the stop is complete.
Active	BOOL	FALSE, TRUE	N/A	If TRUE, the stop is still executing.
Error	BOOL	FALSE, TRUE	N/A	If TRUE, an error has occurred.
ErrorID	INT	-32768 to +32767	N/A	Indicates the error if Error output is TRUE. See PLCopen Function Block ErrorIDs.

Remarks

• 
  
• MC_GrpStop can not be aborted.

• 
  
• This function block starts a motion-related action and stores data for calculations and error checking.
  If using a dual-core controller, see Call Function Blocks Multiple Times in the Same Cycle.

• When the path velocity reaches 0 (zero):
  • Any queued moves are flushed from the buffer.
  • The Done output is set.
• When the Done output is TRUE and the application has cleared, the Execute input state transitions to GroupStandby.
• MC_GrpStop does NOT prevent:
  • A single axis from executing.
  • Other Coordinated Motion moves from executing once MC_GrpStop has completed.
• See What MC_GrpStop Does.
• See Differences between MC_GrpHalt and MC_GrpStop.
• See Coordinated Motion, the top-level topic for Coordinated Motion.
• See Function Blocks - General Rules about how inputs and outputs work.
