Case 1 Case 2
 
Case 1: When Execute changes from FALSE to TRUE, Busy changes to TRUE. When the instruction 
execution is completed, Done changes to TRUE and Busy changes to FALSE. When Execute 
changes to FALSE, Done changes to FALSE. 
Case 2: When an error occurs, Error changes to TRUE and ErrorID shows corresponding error code. 
When Execute changes from TRUE to FALSE, Error changes to FALSE and the value of 
ErrorID is cleared to 0. 
  Functions 
DMC_CamAddTappet is used for adding a tappet point by setting the master axis position and the 
status mode of the tappet point when the tappet point is passed in the positive direction and in negative 
direction. The number of the added tappet point is accumulated on the basis of the numbers of existing 
tappet points. For example, if the largest number of tappet points is 3 previously, the largest number of 
tappet points is 4 after the instruction is executed. 
When the axis runs forward, the added tappet point can select such a mode as PositiveDisable, 
PositiveOn, PositiveOff or PositiveInvert. When the axis runs backward, the added tappet point can 
select such a mode as NegativeDisable, NegativeOn, NegativeOff or NegativeInvert. 
The meanings of modes are shown in the following table. 
PositiveDisable  Disabled 
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the positive direction, 
the status of the tappet point which is read has no change.   
PositiveOn 
ON 
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the positive direction, 
the status of the tappet point which is read is ON.   
PositiveOff  OFF 
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the positive direction, 
the status of the tappet point which is read is OFF.   
PositiveInvert  Invert 
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the positive direction, 
the status of the tappet point which is read will be OFF if the status of 
the tappet point is ON before the tappet point is passed in the positive 
direction. Otherwise, the status of the tappet point which is read will be 
ON if the status of the tappet point is OFF before the tappet point is 
passed in the positive direction. 
NegativeDisable  Disabled 
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the negative direction, 
the status of the tappet point which is read has no change.   
NegativeOn 
ON 
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the negative direction, 
the status of the tappet point which is read is ON.   
NegativeOff  OFF 
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the negative direction, 
the status of the tappet point which is read is OFF.   
When the master axis passes the tappet point in the negative direction,
