Deactivation of members

To deactivate members when using the "Skew offset" function, a defined sequence must be adhered to. Otherwise, error 120.32 "No motor encoders taken into account" can occur.

Example:

• Offset mode of axis group member [1] = "Travels offset"
• Offset mode of axis group member [2] = "Forms actual position"
• Offset mode of axis group member [3] = "Travels offset"
• Offset mode of axis group member [4] = "Travels offset"
• Offset of axis group members [1] = 300
• Offset of axis group members [2] = 0
• Offset of axis group members [3] = 100
• Offset of axis group members [4] = 200

Result:

• Actual position of axis group members [1] = 1300
• Actual position of axis group members [2] = 1000
• Actual position of axis group members [3] = 1100
• Actual position of axis group members [4] = 1200
• Actual position of software module = 1000 = setpoint position

In the next step, axis group members 2, 3 and 4 are deactivated in order to move axis group member 1 individually. Here, the following sequence must be observed:

• Remove one of the enable signals (emergency stop or application stop) to inhibit the drives.
• Deactivate member 1.
• Set enable signal again.

Result without pending start signal:

• Actual position of axis group members [1] = 1300
• Actual position of axis group members [2] = 1000
• Actual position of axis group members [3] = 1100
• Actual position of axis group members [4] = 1200
• Actual position of software module = 1300 = setpoint position

Result with pending start signal:

• Axis group member 1 travels to 1000

If the member in control (with both enable signals) is deactivated, error 120.32 "No motor encoders taken into account" is triggered. Furthermore, deactivating the member with the setting "Forms actual position" means that the skew offset mode and the skew offset are ignored and axis group member 1 now forms the actual position.
