Overview

Type:

Method

Available as of:

V1.0.0.0

Task

Stopping the carrier movement controlled by the move command Jogging.

Description

The method IF_Jogging - Stop stops a carrier movement started by the method IF_Jogging - Start.

When the method IF_Jogging - Stop is called, the carrier is stopped with a positioning command setting the velocity to zero:
Vel = 0

The motion parameters specified by the method SetMotionParameterJogging (MaxAcceleration, MaxDeceleration, and MaxAbsJerk) are used for stopping the movement. For more details on the motion parameters, refer to SetMotionParameterJogging.

With the method IF_Jogging - Stop, the movement of the carrier is stopped without considering other carriers, for example without considering if the carrier in front stops faster. Take this into account when using this method.

With an open track, the carriers could leave the track at the ends. Therefore, mechanical hard stops must be mounted at both ends of an open track.

 WARNING
EQUIPMENT OPERATION HAZARD
Mount mechanical hard stops at both ends of an open track.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
