Index Profile Limited
Index.ProfileLimited
For timed indexes, if the values for Max. Velocity, Max.
Acceleration and Max. Deceleration are such that the
distance cannot be covered in the specified time, the
Index.ProfileLimited flag will activate when the index is
initiated. The Index.ProfileLimited flag will remain active
until cleared using the Index.ResetProfileLimited
assignment or program instruction. In this situation, the
index will still operate, but the time will be extended. In
other words, the profile will be performed using the
maximum values and still cover the specified distance, but
not in the specified time.
Index Reset Profile Limited
Index.ResetProfileLimited
If a timed index was not completed in the specified time,
the Index.ProfileLimited source will activate.
Index.ResetProfileLimited is used to clear the
ProfileLimited flag and acknowledge that the index was not
completed in the specified time. This can be activated
through an assignment, or through a user program. This
function is edge-sensitive, so holding Reset Profile Limited
active will not prevent ProfileLimited from activating.
Index Acceleration
Index.#.Accel
This parameter is the average Acceleration rate used
during the index. Units are specified on the User Units view
in the PowerTools Pro software.
Index Accelerating
Index.#.Accelerating
This source is active while an index is accelerating to its
target velocity. Once the index reaches the target velocity,
or begins to decelerate, the Index.#.Accelerating source
will deactivate.
Index At Velocity
Index.#.AtVel
This source activates when the target index velocity is
reached. If Feedrate override is changed or FeedHold is
activated AtVelocity shall remain active. Index.#.AtVel will
deactivate at the start of any deceleration or acceleration.
During a synchronized index, this source could be active
even without any motor motion if the master axis stops.
Index Command Complete
Index.#.CommandComplete
The Index.#.CommandComplete source will activate when
the specific index completes its deceleration ramp. It will
remain active until the specific index is initiated again. If the
Stop destination is used during an Index, then the
Index.#.CommandComplete will not activate.
Index Command In Progress
Index.#.CommandInProgress
The Index.#.CommandInProgress source is active
throughout an entire index profile. The source activates at
the beginning of the index acceleration ramp, and
deactivates at the end of the index deceleration ramp.
Index Compound Initiate
Index.#.CompoundInitiate
When activated will initiate the specified Index to
compound into the next index in the program. Only allowed
in a program.
Index Deceleration
Index.#.Decel
This parameter is the Average Deceleration rate used
during the index. Units are specified on the User Units
page.
Index Decelerating
Index.#.Decelerating
This source is active while an index is decelerating from its
target velocity. Once the index reaches zero velocity, or its
next target velocity, the Index.#.Decelerating source will
deactivate.
Index Distance
Index.#.Dist
This parameter is the Incremental distance that the index
will travel or the absolute position for the specified index in
user units. If an index type of Registration is selected, then
this is a limit distance, or the maximum distance the index
will travel if a registration sensor is not seen.
Index Time
Index#.IndexTime
This parameter is used in conjunction with the
Index.TimeIndexEnable parameter. If TimeIndexEnable is
activated, then this is the time in which an index should
complete its programmed distance. The units for this
parameter depend on the current setting of the TimeBase
parameter for the specific index. If TimeBase is set to
"Realtime" (default), then the units are Seconds. The user
can program the index time with resolution on 0.001
Seconds (or milliseconds). If TimeBase is set to
"Synchronized", the units defined by the Master Distance
Units found on the Master Setup screen.
