- 328 -
If a combination of selection signals not listed in the table above is
entered, the previous operation mode remains set for a certain period
(T1) after input of the combination. After time T1, the state in which
neither automatic operation mode nor manual operation mode is
selected results. If another combination of selection signals is entered
within T1, the corresponding operation mode is selected.
When all the selection signals are set to 0, one of the following can be
selected by parameter setting:
a. The previously selected operation mode remains as is.
b. The previous mode remains set for a certain period (T0). After
time T0, the state in which neither automatic operation mode nor
manual operation mode is selected results. If another
combination of selection signals is entered within T0, the
corresponding operation mode is selected.
Times T0 and T1 are set in parameter No. 2014 and No. 2015,
respectively. A value from 0 to 2 seconds can be specified as T0 and
T1.
- Operation upon operation mode switching
Upon a transition from one operation mode to another, the control unit
usually performs one of the operations below.
a. Immediate switching: Operation is stopped immediately to
switch
to a new mode.
b. Switching upon the completion of block execution: Operation is
continued until execution of the block being executed is
completed. Next, operation is stopped, then is resumed in a new
mode.
c. Operation continuation: The operation being executed is
continued. At the same time, operation in a new mode is
performed.
When operation is stopped for operation mode switching, all
movements on axes are decelerated and stopped. The type of operation
that is performed depends on the newly selected mode and the previous
mode, as indicated in the table below.
