Program Examples:Cyclic recording of one Axis

Introduction

The following example demonstrate how to record an external interference in single axis.

Program flow

The program refer to axis that fail during motion.
The program set motion conditions for an axis and start recording motion data.
Under the conditions the user set, the program stop recording and stop axis motion.
