AXY:MC-Basic:axis.STOPTYPE

This property defines how the motion is stopped in response to the STOP command. The STOP type is used within a STOP command to override the permanent value for only that STOP command.

1 (IMMEDIATE) – Immediate stop, using maximum deceleration.

2 (ONPATH) – Immediate stop, using maximum deceleration, on the path of the motion. This is useful for stopping group motion so that all axes remain on the original path of travel during the stop. For a single axis, the IMMEDIATE and ONPATH types of stop are the same.

3 (ENDMOTION) – Stop at the end of the current motion command.

4 (ABORT) – Stop the current motion immediately and proceed to start next motion. Only the accepted motion commands are stopped. The commands following this type of stop will be executed regularly.

5 (DecStopOnPath) – The stopping procedure is started immediately according to DecStop value. This parameter is modal so its value must be updated before executing the motion command.
