WAIT
Permits synchronization with some external event through the CTL bits. Execution of the next
command is suspended until the specified CTL is set.
A single WAIT command only applies to one axis. Therefore, in a multi-axis program, you must
designate the axis number that a WAIT applies to. For example: WAIT AXIS1 CTL01. If you
wish to make both axes wait in a multi-axis program, you must use a separate WAIT command
for each axis.
Syntax:
WAIT {<axis>} <ctl>
Parameter Description
<axis> The axis can only be specified in a multi-axis program or subroutine. The axis may
be specified using the AXISx keywords or constants.
<ctl> Specifies CTL01 – CTL32.
Aliases:
none
Errors:
1. Axis specified in single-axis program.
2. No axis specified in multi-axis program.
3. CTL must be in the range of 1 – 32.
4. Specified axis does not support programmed motion.
