This section explains the M-EXECUTOR Module (motion program executor) function and its detail screen.
( 1 ) M-EXECUTOR Module Function Overview
The M-EXECUTOR Module is a software module that executes a motion or sequence program.
The M-EXECUTOR Module enables the following features:
• Executing a motion program without using a ladder program
Conventionally, in order to execute a motion program, you need to incorporate an MSEE command into a ladder
program. The M-EXECUTOR Module allows you to execute the motion program without incorporating the
MSEE command into the ladder program.
Note: You can incorporate a MSEE command into the ladder program as ever.
• Controlling a motion program without using a ladder program
You can map any register to the control signal of the motion program registered in the M-EXECUTOR Module.
So, without a ladder program, this allows you to directly control a motion program from a host PLC or other
device.
• Describing sequence control in motion language
As a new programming method, a sequence program has been added to the MP2300S.
A sequence program is a scan execution type program where a process is completed with one scan. It employs a
text language similar to a motion program.
You can use the sequence program as an alternative to the ladder program.
For information about commands available in the sequence program, see Machine Controller MP900/MP2000
