Use the Micro800 Motion Control Feature
The Micro800 motion control feature has the following elements. New users
need to have a basic understanding of the function of each element to effectively
use the feature.
ATTENTION: To use the Micro800 Motion feature effectively, users need
to have a basic understanding of the following:
• PTO components and parameters
See Use the Micro800 Motion Control Feature
on page 68 for a general
overview of Motion components and their relationships.
• Programming and working with elements in the Connected Components
Workbench software
The user needs to have a working knowledge of ladder diagram,
structured text, or function block diagram programming to be able to work
with motion function blocks, variables, and axis configuration
parameters.
ATTENTION: To learn more about Connected Components Workbench
and detailed descriptions of the variables for the Motion Function Blocks,
you can refer to Connected Components Workbench Online Help that
comes with your Connected Components Workbench installation.
The PTO function can only be used with the controller’s embedded I/O. It
cannot be used with expansion I/O modules.
