Machine State Diagram
The machine module uses the Transitional States to move between Permanent States. Typically, the machine only remains on a
Transitional State for brief period of time. If the machine module detects an error during a Transitional State or if the application
or device modules fail to transition within an allotted time (10 seconds by default), the machine module issues an ABORT
command. The fail safe transition timer makes sure the overall machine does not become stuck in a Transitional State. It also
helps to provide diagnostic information to determine which module is not transitioning properly.
You can fully customize the state machine, letting you change the relationship between states and the state names, and add or
remove states if needed. Refer to the Drives and Motion Accelerator Toolkit (DMAT) Quick Start publication (iasimp-qs019_-en-
p.pdf) Appendix B, for information on how to customize the state machine.
