To view the current values for each command, type the command followed by a ? for each axis
requested.
PR 1000 Specify A only as 1000
PR ,2000 Specify B only as 2000
PR ,,3000 Specify C only as 3000
PR ,,,4000 Specify D only as 4000
PR 2000, 4000,6000, 8000 Specify A,B,C and D
PR ,8000,,9000 Specify B and D only
PR ?,?,?,? Request A,B,C,D values
PR ,? Request B value only
The DMC-2x00 provides an alternative method for specifying data. Here data is specified individually
using a single axis specifier such as A, B, C or D. An equals sign is used to assign data to that axis.
For example:
PRA=1000 Specify a position relative movement for the A axis of 1000
ACB=200000 Specify acceleration for the B axis as 200000
Instead of data, some commands request action to occur on an axis or group of axes. For example, ST
AB stops motion on both the A and B axes. Commas are not required in this case since the particular
axis is specified by the appropriate letter A, B, C or D. If no parameters follow the instruction, action
will take place on all axes. Here are some examples of syntax for requesting action:
BG A Begin A only
BG B Begin B only
BG ABCD Begin all axes
BG BD Begin B and D only
BG Begin all axes
2x80
For controllers with 5 or more axes, the axes are referred to as A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H.
BG ABCDEFGH Begin all axes
BG D Begin D only
Coordinated Motion with more than 1 axis
When requesting action for coordinated motion, the letter S and T are used to specify coordinated
motion planes. For example:
BG S Begin coordinated sequence, S
BG TW Begin coordinated sequence, T, and D axis
