Command Summary - Vector Mode Motion
COMMAND DESCRIPTION
VM m,n Specifies the axes for the planar motion where m and n represent the planar axes and p is
the tangent axis.
VP m,n Return coordinate of last point, where m=X,Y,Z or W.
CR r,Θ, ±ΔΘ Specifies arc segment where r is the radius, Θ is the starting angle and ΔΘ is the travel
angle. Positive direction is CCW.
VS n Specify vector speed or feedrate of sequence.
VA n Specify vector acceleration along the sequence.
VD n Specify vector deceleration along the sequence.
VR n Specify vector speed ratio
BGS Begin motion sequence.
CS Clear sequence.
AV n Trippoint for After Relative Vector distance, n.
AMS Holds execution of next command until Motion Sequence is complete.
TN m,n Tangent scale and offset.
ES m,n Ellipse scale factor.
VT S curve smoothing constant for coordinated moves
LM? Return number of available spaces for linear and circular segments in DMC-1000
sequence buffer. Zero means buffer is full. 512 means buffer is empty.
Operand Summary - Vector Mode Motion
OPERAND DESCRIPTION
_VPM The absolute coordinate of the axes at the last intersection along the sequence.
_AV Distance traveled.
_LM Number of available spaces for linear and circular segments in DMC-1000 sequence
buffer. Zero means buffer is full. 512 means buffer is empty.
_CS Segment counter - Number of the segment in the sequence, starting at zero.
When AV is used as an operand, _AV returns the distance traveled along the sequence.
The operands _VPX and _VPY can be used to return the coordinates of the last point specified along
the path.
Example:
Traverse the path shown in Fig. 6.3. Feedrate is 20000 counts/sec. Plane of motion is XY
