4.2 Device state machine and device statuses
The behaviour of the controller is mainly determined by the current device status within
the device state machine. Which device status is active and device status is next depends
on certain control signals (e.g. for controller inhibit and quick stop) and status parameters.
[4-1] Device state machine
The arrows between the device statuses mark possible status changes.
The digits stand for the status ID (see table below).
Pulse inhibit (grey field)
Can be reached from all statuses.
"Warning" contradicts the definition of a device status. In fact, it is a message which is to call attention to
the device status the warning exists for.
"Warning" can occur in parallel to other device statuses.
