Position register
A programmable register that can have various functions assigned to it.
Make changes only while the amplifier is disabled + reset.

The software limit-switches from part of the monitoring functions of the position controller.
SW limit-switch 1
The monitoring checks whether the actual position value is lower than the preset
value (the negative direction of travel is now inhibited – You have to leave
limit-switch 1 by moving in the positive direction. ).
SW limit-switch 2
The monitoring checks whether the actual position value is higher than the preset
value (the positive direction of travel is now inhibited – You have to leave
limit-switch 1 by moving in the negative direction.)
The drive brakes with the emergency ramp, and remains at standstill under torque.
The principle of positioning the software limit-switch can be seen in the diagram below:
Legend
MA1 : Machine stop, left
HE1 : Hardware limit-switch, left
NI : Zero pulse initiator (reference)
SE1 : Software limit-switch 1
SE2 : Software limit-switch 2
HE2 : Hardware limit-switch right
MA2 : Machine stop right
+ : Positive count direction
- : Negative count direction
ASCII: SWCNFG (set)
Default: 0 valid for all OPMODES
ASCII: SWEx (position)
Default: 0 valid for all OPMODES
Configuration variables for the position register. SWCNFG is a binary-coded bit-variable, and is transferred to
the ASCII terminal program as a decimal number.
