If value -1 "with digital input" is entered in ps46 start index, the index selected via
digital inputs (=> Chapter 7.1.9.3 Index setting via digital inputs) is used as start
index.
4.8.1.3.2 Sequence control system
There are 2 types of sequence control systems "auto index mode" or "stop after
each index". The selection is made via ps38 posi operation mode.
After the "Start Positioning" command, all index positions are moved in succes-
sion until an index is reached for which value -1 "off" is programmed in param-
eter ps42 next index.
The first position is defined by ps46 start index.
ps46 is not changed automatically.
With this index mode, the positioning is completed after each index in case of
subsequent positioning (ps42 next index unequal -1). The new index (ps42
next index) is automatically entered in ps46 start index. With the next com-
mand "Start positioning" the index entered in ps46 is used.
Therefore, a "Start Positioning" command must always be given to move to the
individual positions of the programmed sequence.
If a positioning sequence is finished (ps42 next index = -1), the value of ps42
next index (-1) is copied in ps46 start index when the last target is reached.
The next positioning sequence starts with the index which is selected via digital
inputs.
The sequence of the positions is determined via ps42 next index.
End of sequence control system
The positioning is completed as soon as the actual index position is
reached.
As soon as the position of the current index is reached, the program
switches to the next index.
A running index positioning can be interrupted and programmed to alternative se-
quence with ps44 and ps45.
The condition for this can be assigned (e.g.) to the software outputs OA…OC via
the do-objects.
There is no negative acknowledgement for the index positioning. This means, the
new position is always accepted.
Thereby position setpoints are also possible, which can not be reached with com-
pliance of the current setpoint ramps. The index positions must be corrected by
way that the distance to the new set position can also be reached with the valid
ramps.
