If a registration sensor is seen outside of this window (not between the WindowStart and WindowEnd positions) then it will be ignored.
Window End
This parameter defines the end of the Registration Sensor Valid Window relative to start position of this index. This is an unsigned value and is relative only to starting position of this index. Index direction does not affect this parameter. The Registration Window End position (or distance) should be greater than the Registration Window Start position. If a registration sensor is seen outside of this window (not between the WindowStart and WindowEnd positions) then it will be ignored.
Example:
Index 0 is defined as a Registration type of index. The user wants the index to run at velocity for 10 Revs, or until the Torque Feedback reaches 50% continuous torque and then continue for another 0.5 Revs.
In the Limit Distance parameter, enter 10.0.
On the registration tab, select the Analog radio button.
In the analog list box, select Torque Command
In the comparison operator list box, select ">"
In the analog value parameter, enter 50 (Units are established on the User Units view)
In the Registration Offset parameter, enter 1.5
This index would accelerate up to its' target velocity, and run at speed until one of the following:
The Limit Distance is approaching, and the index decels down to zero velocity, completing the move at the Limit Distance. At this point, the Index.#.LimitDistHit source would activate.
Or,
The Torque Command reaches or exceeds 50% continuous, and the index continues at speed before decelerating to zero velocity at the registration point plus the Registration Offset distance.
If the Registration Offset distance is in the opposite direction from the move, or is so short that the motor cannot stop in the specified distance at the programmed deceleration rate, the motor will decelerate with the programmed ramp, and then
Index Sources and Destinations
Sources
Index.AnyCommandComplete - Active when any index motion command is completed. If a stop is activated before the index has completed, this destination will not activate. Deactivated when any new index command is initiated.
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.#.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 - 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 drive stop destination is used during an Index, then the Index.#.CommandComplete will not activate.
Index.#.Command In Progress - 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. During a synchronized index, this source could be active even without any motor motion if the master axis stops.
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.#.LimitDistHit - 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.
Index.#.PLSStatus - Controlled by the PLSOn and PLSOff Points which are relative to the distance commanded since the start of the index. Activated when index distance command is in between the PLSOn point and PLSOff points.
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, indicating that the index cannot be performed as desired. 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 maximums values and still cover the specified distance, but not in the specified time.
Destinations
Index.ResetProfileLimited - If a timed index was not able to complete in the specified time, the Index.ProfileLimited source will activate. Index.ResetProfileLimited is used to clear the ProfileLimited flag and acknowledge that the index did not complete in the specified time. This can be activated through an assignment, or through a user program. This function is
