MCV_AxesGroup

This function block is used to monitor the communication path between the motion controller and the axis group and to transfer information available from the motion controller, such as error messages or command acknowledgements, to the PLC.

Notice

notice

This function block must be called in a PLC application in every PLC cycle.

There may only be one instance of the function block per axis group.

To simplify matters for the user, the library provides the function block MCV_P4_Platform in which the required instances of the FB MCV_AxesGroup are instanced and called.
