FM-3 Programming Module Reference Manual
Gear Accel Enable
Gear.AccelEnable
Gear.AccelEnable is a Destination that when it is "on" allows a gear to run a specified accel
ramp after the gearing command is turned on.
Gear Accelerating
Gear.Accelerating
If Gear.AccelEnable is activated, this source is activated during the time between Gear.Initate
= On and Gear.AtVel = On.
Gear Activate
Gear.Activate
The Gear.Activate destination is used to start gearing from an assignment. It is a level-
sensitive function, which means that as long as Gear.Activate is active, gearing will be in
progress. When deactivated, gearing motion will come to a stop without deceleration. This
function is only available through the assignments screen. When gearing from a program, the
Gear.Initiate instruction is used.
Gear at Velocity
Gear.AtVel
The Gear.AtVel source indicates that the motor is running at the programmed gear ratio. In
early releases of Gearing, acceleration and deceleration will not be used with gearing, so this
source will always be active when gearing is active.
Gear Command Complete
Gear.CommandComplete
This source will activate when gearing has been stopped, and will remain active until the gear
is initiated again. Gearing does not use a deceleration ramp, so this source will activate
immediately after a Gear.Activate destination is deactivated.
Gear Command In Progress
Gear.CommandInProgrees
This source will activate when Gearing is initiated either from a program or through an
assignment. The source will remain active as long as gearing is in operation. This source can
be active even if the motor is not in motion as long as gearing is active.
