2.4.3 Jogging<br />

Figure 24 Stepwise execution of independent axes.<br />

Axes in independent mode cannot be jogged. If an attempt is made to execute the axis<br />

manually, the axis does not move and an error message is displayed. Execute an<br />

IndReset instruction or move the program pointer to main, in order to leave the<br />

independent mode.<br />

2.4.4 Working range<br />

10 s<br />

The physical working range is the total movement of the axis.<br />

The logical working range is the range used by <strong>RAPID</strong> instructions and read in the<br />

jogging window.<br />

After synchronization (updated revolution counter), the physical and logical working<br />

range coincide. By using the IndReset instruction the logical working area can be<br />

moved, see Figure 25.<br />
