AXY:MC-Basic:axis.TIMESETTLEMAX

Language:	English  • 中文（简体）‎

This property defines the maximum time allowed for the axis to settle. The time is measured from the moment the motion profiler completes. If the axis has not settled after the specified time has passed, an error is generated. TIMESETTLE is measured from the moment the axis is in position. Since some time may elapse from the moment the profiler has completed until the axis is actually in position, TIMESETTLEMAX should be set greater than TIMESETTLE.

Setting the value to -1 disables this function (i.e., the maximum settling time is never checked).

Short form

<axis>.TSettleMax

Syntax

<axis>.TimeSettleMax = <expression>

?<axis>.TimeSettleMax

Availability

All versions

Type

Double

Range

-1, greater than 0

Default

-1

Scope

Configuration, Task or Terminal

Limitations

• The maximum settling time should be an integer multiple of the SERCOS cycle time. If it is not, the actual time is rounded up to the nearest integer multiple of the SERCOS cycle time, and a message is given.
• To set the value within a task, the axis must be attached to that task (using the ATTACH command).

Examples

Xaxis.TimeSettleMax = 5000

Allow maximum 5 seconds to settle
