Input Descriptions
EOT (End of Travel): Activation of an End of Travel input during any motion (external steps or
internal move engine) will terminate motion at the rate specified by the Stop Rate parameter, and
latch the direction. Motion is only allowed in the direction opposite of the latched EOT direction
until a negative edge (activation on to activation off) is made. This guards against the switch
activator becoming “trapped” if the Stop Rate was insufficient to stop motion in the activation
region. The EOT input is also required in the execution of Home type moves. See Stored Move
