3-52 Detailed Descriptions of ACL Commands
OS Output Status
The Automove System outputs the value of its status code to the host, then clears the
Initialized bit. The code is output as a decimal integer in the range 0 through 1023, whose
bits have the following meanings:
Table 14 - Status Code Definitions
Bit Dec. Val. Name Meaning, if "1"
0 1 Position Change The position has been changed manually since
the last OA, OC, or OZ.
1 2 Origin Change The Origin was changed manually since the last
OO or SO.
2 4 Taught Point Available A taught point has become available since the
last OT.(See OT, MN, and TEACH.)
3 8 Initialized An IN has occurred or the machine has been
powered up since the last OS; this bit is cleared
after OS reads it.
4 16 Emergency Stopped The machine is in the Emergency Stopped state.
See theCS command in this chapter and the
STOP Button in Chapter 4.
5 32 Error An ACL error was detected since the last OE.
6 64 No Reference The XY Home switches have not yet been found
via an FH or a manual re-reference since the
most recent power up, Emergency Stop, reset,
or RE.
7 128 No Z Reference The Z Home switch has not yet been found via
an FZ, FH, or manual re-reference since the
most recent power up, reset, or Emergency
Stop.
8 256 Z Arrow Mode The front panel Arrow buttons are in Z Arrow
mode. See the AM command in this chapter
and "Z Axis Arrows" in Chapter 4.
9 512 Motor Slipped The optional Step Verify circuit has detected a
stepping motor slip in X or Y. See CS.
OT Output Taught Point
If the Taught Point Available status bit is not set, the Automove System first waits until it is.
(This bit is set when the front panel TEACH button is pressed or when a Dynamic Teach
occurs as the result of an MN command.) Then the System outputs the location of last
Taught Poin to the host and clears the Taught Point Available status bit. The X coordinate is
output first, then a comma, then the Y coordinate; the values will be in the range
-32768.0000 through 32767.9999.
