Overview

Both at standstill and during motion, the axes of the NC-control are monitored constantly to determine whether static or dynamic variables exceed certain limits. The control reports violation of a limit in an error message.

The control supports monitoring of the following variables, among other things:

• Position
• Following error
• Software limit switch
• Collision monitoring
• Dynamics monitoring

The parameters of the individual monitoring functions are defined in the axis parameters.

The operating principle of position monitoring is described in this document.
