5.6 Transition
Either a conditional expression or operation expression can be described for transition.
The operation expression described here is executed repeatedly until the shifting
condition is established.
(1) Description of operation
(a) Motion control step + Shift
Kn
Gn
The operation is shifted to the succeeding step when
the shifting condition Gn is established without waiting
for the servo program Kn (started at the motion control
step) to end.
(b) Motion control step + WAIT
Kn
Gn
The operation is shifted to the succeeding step when
the shifting condition Gn is established after the servo
program Kn (started at the motion control step) has
ended.
(c) WAITON/WAITOFF + Motion control step
ON M0
Kn
OFF M0
Kn
The operation is started as soon as the designated bit
device of WAITON/WAITOFF is turned ON/OFF.
(d) Combination with operation control step
Fn
Gn
Fn
Gn
The SHIFT and WAIT operate in the same manner.
Operation is shifted to the succeeding step when the
shifting condition is established after operation control
program Fn is executed.
(2) Precautions
(a) Always set transition together with motion control step in a pair. If the step
after the WAITON/WAITOFF is not a motion control step, execution of the
SFC program will be interrupted when an error is detected.
(b) When a major or minor error occurs at the start of the servo program
designated at the motion control step, thereby resulting in start failure, the
SFC program is executed continuously, and shifted to the succeeding step. If
the SFC program must be stopped when an error occurs, input the error
detection conditions at the transition (shifting condition).
