The following technology object tags are relevant for positioning monitoring:
<TO>.StatusWord.X7 (Standstill) Is set to the value TRUE , when the actual velocity
value goes below the velocity threshold, and does not
exit it within the minimum dwell time.
The standstill signal is only present at the positioning
<TO>.StatusWord.X6 (Done)
Positioning axis/synchronous axis
Is set to the value TRUE, when the actual velocity val-
ue reaches the positioning window within the tolerance
time, and remains for the minimum dwell time in the
window.
Is set to TRUE, when the motion is completed and thus
the speed setpoint is equal to zero.
<TO>.ErrorWord.X12 (PositioningFault)
A positioning error has occurred.
<TO>.PositioningMonitoring.ToleranceTime
Maximum permissible time until positioning window is
reached
The time is started with the end of the setpoint interpo-
<TO>.PositioningMonitoring.MinDwellTime
Minimum dwell time in the positioning window
<TO>.PositioningMonitoring.Window
<TO>.StandstillSignal.VelocityThreshold
Velocity threshold for the standstill signal
<TO>.StandstillSignal.MinDwellTime
Minimum dwell time below the velocity threshold
The following technology object tags are relevant for following error monitoring:
<TO>.StatusPositioning.FollowingError
<TO>.ErrorWord.X11 (FollowingErrorFault)
Status indication, that the following error is too large
<TO>.WarningWord.X11 (FollowingError-
Status indication, that the following error warning limit
<TO>.FollowingError.EnableMonitoring
Enabling / disabling following error monitoring
<TO>.FollowingError.MinVelocity Lower setpoint velocity for the characteristic curve of
the maximum following error
<TO>.FollowingError.MinValue Permissible following error below the
<TO>.FollowingError.MinVelocity
<TO>.FollowingError.MaxValue Maximum permissible following error at maximum axis
<TO>.FollowingError.WarningLevel Warning limit as a percentage value relative to the
maximum permissible following error (velocity-
dependent in accordance with the characteristic curve)
