FM-3 Programming Module Reference Manual

Initiate

Index.#.Initiate

The Index.#.Initiate destination is used to initiate the specific index. The Index is initiated on the rising edge of this function. An Index cannot be initiated if there is an Home, Jog, or Program in progress, or if the Stop destination or if a travel limit is active. It can be activated from an assignment or from a program.

Limit Distance Hit

Index.#.LimitDistHit

This source is activated when the registration sensor is not found before the Limit Distance is traveled. If the Registration Window is enabled the sensor must be activated inside the window to be recognized.

Name

Index.#.Name

The user can specify an Index name of up to 12 characters.

Enable PLS

Index.#.PLSEnable

When Activated, this parameter enables the PLS (programmable limit switch) function for the specified index. It can be controlled from index view check box or from a program.

PLS Off Point

Index.#.PLSOffDist

This an incremental distance from the start of the index to the Index PLS off point. This is an unsigned value and is relative only to starting position of this index. Index direction does not affect this parameter. Index.#.PLSStatus will be active if the distance traveled from the start of the index is greater than the Index.#.PLSOnDist and less than the Index.#.PLSOffDist.

PLS On Point

Index.#.PLSOnDist

This an incremental distance from the start of the index to the Index PLS On Point. This is an unsigned value and is relative only to starting position of this index. Index direction does not affect this parameter. Index.#.PLSStatus will be active if the distance traveled from the start of the index is greater than the Index.#.PLSOnDist and less than the Index.#.PLSOffDist.
