Name	Description
MLAxisAbs	Performs a move to an absolute position.
MLAxisAdd	A selected Axis performs a move for a specified distance relative to the endpoint of the previous move.
MLAxisAddress	Returns the motion bus address of the axis.
MLAxisAddTq	Set the additive torque value to the drive output (torque feed-forward).
MLAxisCfgFastIn	Configures the Fast Input for the axis by writing the expected settings in the Latch Control Word.
MLAxisCmdPos	Returns the reference position of the axis.
MLAxisDriveNumber	Returns the drive number associated with the axis or -1 if the function block failed.
MLAxisFBackPos	Returns the feedback position of the axis.
MLAxisGenEN	Enables or disables the internal TMP generator of the axis.
MLAxisGenIsEN	Verifies if the internal TMP generator of the axis is enabled.
MLAxisGenIsRdy	Verifies if an axis is ready.
MLAxisGenPos	Returns the generator position of the axis.
MLAxisGenReadAcc	Gets the acceleration of the internal generator of an axis.
MLAxisGenReadDec	Gets the deceleration of the internal generator of an axis.
MLAxisGenReadSpd	Gets the speed of the internal generator of an axis.
MLAxisGenWriteAcc	Sets the acceleration of the internal generator of an axis.
MLAxisGenWriteDec	Sets the deceleration of the internal generator of an axis.
MLAxisGenWriteSpd	Sets the speed of the internal generator of an axis.
MLAxisInit	Initializes an axis object.
MLAxisIsCnctd	Verifies if a pipe is currently connected to the axis.
MLAxisIsTrigged	Verifies if the axis received a trigger event.
MLAxisMoveVel	Jog at the specified speed.
MLAxisPipePos	Returns the pipe position of the axis.
MLAxisPower	Powers up or down the axis. Enables or disables a Servo or Stepper drive mapped to the axis.
MLAxisPowerDOff - Deprecated	This function has been deprecated.
MLAxisRatedTq	Allows conversion of drive torque values from rated torque units (1000 = rated motor continuous torque) to N.m (Newton meter).
MLAxisReadActPos	Returns the actual position of the axis.
MLAxisReadBoolParam	Read an Axis Boolean property of a Pipe Network Axis.
MLAxisReadFBUnit	Gets the feedback units per revolution value of the axis.
MLAxisReadFEUU	Returns the difference between the reference position and the actual position of the drive mapped to the specified axis.
MLAxisReadGenStatus	Returns the status of the internal generator of the axis.
MLAxisReadModPos	Gets the value period of the axis.
MLAxisReadParam	Returns the value of the specified axis parameter.
MLAxisReadTq	Returns the actual torque applied by the drive mapped to the specified axis.
MLAxisReadUUnits	Gets the User units per revolution value of the axis.
MLAxisReadVel	Returns the actual velocity of the axis based on the data provided by the drive's feedback device.
MLAxisReAlgnRdy	Verifies if an axis is ready.
MLAxisReAlign	Realigns the actual position with the reference position by moving the axis by the specified delta position.
MLAxisRel	A selected Axis performs a move for a specified distance relative to the current position.
MLAxisResetErrors	Clears errors of the specified axis.
MLAxisRstFastIn	Writes in the Latch Control Word to reset the Fast Input.
MLAxisStatus	Returns the status of the axis.
MLAxisStop	Stop with the specified deceleration. This does NOT remove the input source, but to stop the drive from continuing to move.
MLAxisTimeStamp	Returns the timestamp of the triggered axis.
MLAxisWriteBoolParam	Write an Axis Boolean property of a Pipe Network Axis.
MLAxisWriteModPos	Sets the value period of the axis.
MLAxisWritePipPos	Forces the pipe position internal value. This function works only when no pipe is connected.
MLAxisWritePos	Sets a new value to an axis’ current location.
MLAxisWriteUUnits	Set the user units per revolution value of the axis.
MLPNAxisCreate	Creates a new axis object.
