Table 3-4. Position Diagnostics
Field Status Description
In Position Indicates whether or not the axis is in its commanded position
(“*” = in position, “-” = not in position).
Marker Indicates when the encoder marker has been found (“*” = found,
“-” = not found).
Axis 1-4 Position [ ] Shows current axis position in machine steps. The positions
shown in brackets are useful for resolver setup. For resolvers, they
represent the resolver-to-digital converter 16-bit value.
3.6.5. Diagnostics Menu: Active Limits Page
The Active Limits page (refer to Figure 3-27) displays limit status information. This page
differs from the Hardware Status page because the polarity is programmable and the axis
must be enabled to have an active limit. Components of the Active Limits page are shown
in Table 3-5.
