Motion Group Trigger

To couple the running of an event task with the running of the motion planner,
use the Motion Group Execution trigger.
Let an event trigger this task.
Let the motion planner trigger the task.
This is the name of the motion group tag.
Interrupt all other tasks.
When the task is done, do not update digital outputs in the local chassis.
The Motion Group Execution trigger works as follows:
•
The base update period for the motion group triggers the running of both
the motion planner and the event task.
•
Because the motion planner interrupts all other tasks, it runs first. If you
assign the event task as the highest priority task, it runs immediately after
the motion planner.
