#POSERR 
FUNCTION: Position error automatic subroutine 
DESCRIPTION: 
The factory default behavior of the Galil controller upon a position error (TE > ER) is to do 
nothing more than turn on the red error LED.  If OE is set to 1, the motor whose position error 
ER was exceeded will be turned off MO.  #POSERR can be used if the programmer wishes to 
run code upon a position error (for example to notify a host computer). 
 
The #POSERR label causes the statements following to be automatically executed if error on any 
axis exceeds the error limit specified by ER. The error routine must be closed with the RE 
command. The RE command returns from the error subroutine to the main program.
