Automatic Operation (Synchronous Control)
8-6
Difference between synchronous control enabled/disabled
Operation request axis
Operates with synchronous control
enabled
Operates with
synchronous control
disabled
Master axis set Slave axis set Master/Slave axis set
Home return
No
The master axis performs
a home return.
The slave axes do not
perform a home return
but operate in
synchronization with
output from the master
axis.
To enable the slave axes
to perform a home return,
operate them with
synchronous control
disabled.
No
The slave axes do
not operate in
response to
operation requests.
Yes
The master axis or slave
axes will perform a home
return only if the master
axis or the slave axes are
so requested.
JOG operation
Yes
The slave axes operate
in synchronization with
the operation request of
the master axis.
Yes
The master axis or slave
axes will go into JOG
operation only if the
master axis or the slave
axes are so requested.
Positioning
Single axis
Interpolation
Yes
Interpolation will be
executed upon request if
the master axis is the
start axis of interpolation.
The slave axes operate
in synchronization with
the master axis.
Yes
Interpolation will be
executed upon request if
the requested axis is the
start axis of interpolation.
Stop
functions
System stop All the axes come to a stop regardless of the synchronization settings.
Emergency
stop
Yes
The master axis comes
to a stop upon request.
The slave axes come to
a stop in synchronization
with the master axis.
Yes
Only axes
requested come to a
stop.
The master axis and
other salve axes set
on the same master
axis continue
operating.
Yes
Only axes requested
come to a stop.
(All the axes in
interpolation operation
come to a stop.)
Deceleration
stop
Limit stop
The master axis and all the slave axes come to a
stop.
Only axes resulting in a
limit error come to a stop.
Error stop
Only axes resulting in an
error come to a stop.
