IndCMove Independent Continuous Movement<br />

Example<br />

Arguments<br />

IndCMove is used to change an axis to independent mode and start the axis moving<br />

continuously at a specific speed.<br />

An independent axis is an axis moving independently of other axes in the robot system.<br />

As program execution continues immediately, it is possible to execute other instructions<br />

(including positioning instructions) during the time the independent axis is moving.<br />

IndCMove Station_A,2,-30.5;<br />

Axis 2 of Station_A starts to move in a negative direction at a speed of 30.5<br />

degrees/s.<br />

IndCMove MecUnit Axis Speed [ \Ramp ]<br />

MecUnit (Mechanical Unit) Data type: mecunit<br />

The name of the mechanical unit.<br />

Axis Data type: num<br />

The number of the current axis for the mechanical unit (1-6).<br />

Speed Data type: num<br />

Axis speed in degrees/s (mm/s for linear axis).<br />

The direction of movement is specified as the sign of the speed argument.<br />

[ \Ramp ] Data type: num<br />

Program execution<br />

Decrease acceleration and deceleration from maximum performance<br />

( 1 - 100%, 100% = maximum performance).<br />

When IndCMove is executed, the specified axis starts to move at the programmed<br />

speed. The direction of movement is specified as the sign of the speed argument. If<br />

\Ramp is programmed there will be a reduction of acceleration/deceleration.<br />
