Operating modes

The following table shows the operating modes available in the operation of the software module. The operating mode is defined via a process data word of the software module. The drive is stopped when switching to another operating mode. Switching on the fly is not possible. The following chapters provide a cycle diagram for each operating mode to help you better understand the operating principle as well as the process sequence with a description of the signal states.

INFORMATION

A requirement for all operating modes is that the axes are enabled via the enable bits Enable/emergency stop and Enable/stop at user-defined limits in the control word. For more information, refer to chapters MOVIKIT® StackerCrane effiDRIVE control word and Process data assignment.

Operating mode (dec)

Default

0

Enabling or disabling the axes

Jog

100

Jog – position-controlled

The axes are moved manually using the Jog positive, Jog negative bits and the corresponding dynamic parameters.

130

Jog – cams

Manual movement of the axes using the Jog positive, Jog negative bits and the corresponding dynamic parameters, taking into account the configured speed cams at the aisle ends.

Referencing

300

Referencing – offset configured

A configured reference offset is written to the actual position

301

Referencing – offset fieldbus

A reference offset specified via bus is written to the actual position

Positioning

400

Positioning – absolute

Positioning of the axes is not energy optimized

430

Positioning – cams

Non-energy optimized positioning of the axes taking into account the configured speed cams at the aisle ends.

Brake test

700

Brake test – static

Test of all brakes one after the other

701

Brake test – member 1

Test of the 1st axis group member of the MultiAxisController (no function without MultiAxisController)

702

Brake test – member 2

Test of the 2nd axis group member of the MultiAxisController (no function without MultiAxisController)

Positioning –
XY energy-optimized

1200

Energy-optimized positioning of the axes

Positioning –
XY mechanics-optimized

1210

Diagonal positioning by reducing the speed of an axis.

No function –
Safe brake test external

1300

Preparing the external brake test

The brake test is configured via safety card and is controlled using the safe bus or safe inputs.
