MC_Jog 2: Inputs

Name

Type

Default

Description

JogForward

BOOL

 

The command is executed with a rising edge, and the axis is moved in positive direction. Depending on the mode, the axis moves as long as the signal remains TRUE, or it stops automatically after a specified distance.

JogBackward

BOOL

 

The command is executed with a rising edge, and the axis is moved in negative direction. Depending on the mode, the axis moves as long as the signal remains TRUE, or it stops automatically after a specified distance.

Mode

EJogMode

StandardSlow

Determines the operation mode in which the manual function is executed.

Distance

LREAL

#Ignore

Distance for movements in Mode Inching

Velocity

LREAL

#Ignore

Jog velocity ([PosUnit]/s, positive). Required for Continuous and Inching modes; StandardSlow and StandardFast use axis defaults.

Acceleration

LREAL

#Default

Maximum acceleration ([PosUnit]/s^2, positive)

Deceleration

LREAL

#Default

Maximum deceleration ([PosUnit]/s^2, positive)

Jerk

LREAL

#Default

Maximum jerk ([PosUnit]/s^3, positive)

Further information

The operating mode of the MC_Jog function block is defined via the input Mode of type E_JogMode:

E_JogMode.StandardSlow

The axis moves as long as the signal at either the JogForward or JogBackward TRUE input is TRUE. The velocity specified by the Jog Velocity Slow axis parameter and the dynamics specified by the Acceleration, Deceleration, and Jerk inputs are used.

The Distance and Velocity function block inputs have no effect in this operating mode.

E_JogMode.StandardFast

The axis moves as long as the signal at either the JogForward or JogBackward TRUE input is TRUE. The velocity specified by the Jog Velocity Fast axis parameter and the dynamics specified by the Acceleration, Deceleration, and Jerk inputs are used.

The Distance and Velocity function block inputs have no effect in this operating mode.

E_JogMode.Continuous

The axis moves as long as the signal at either the JogForward or JogBackward TRUE input is TRUE.

The function block input Distance has no effect in this operating mode.

E_JogMode.Inching

The axis moves by the distance specified at the Distance input of the function block as soon as a rising edge is detected at the JogForward or JogBackward input.
