Items related to monitor
The following describes the items related to monitor, such as the positioning address and speed.
Pulse output monitor
Use the pulse output monitor to check whether pulses are being output from the output device (Y) set as an output device.
The pulse output monitor shows the pulse output status even when positioning operation is stopped.
■Special Device
*1 5: FX5 dedicated device, 3: FX3 compatible device
• When the pulse output monitor is on, do not execute another positioning instruction that uses the corresponding axis.
• Do not write to the pulse output monitor using a transfer instruction. This may change the value and cause abnormal
monitoring.
Positioning instruction activation
Use "positioning instruction activation" to check whether or not a positioning instruction is being executed.
Even if no pulse is output, this flag is on while the instruction is being driven. Even after the drive contact of the positioning
instruction is turned off, this flag remains on until the pulse output is stopped. Use this flag to prevent simultaneous activation
of two or more positioning instructions for the same axis.
■Special Device
*1 5: FX5 dedicated device, 3: FX3 compatible device
Do not write to the pulse output monitor using a transfer instruction. This may change the value and cause abnormal
monitoring.
