13.3 Auxiliary Output Code and Auxiliary Output Contact
The auxiliary output contact is a function to inform about which table's operation is performing when the
automatic operation (E point control, C point control, P point control, J point control) is executed.
The auxiliary output contact and the auxiliary output code can be used by setting the parameter "auxiliary
output mode" of each axis to the With or Delay mode.
Auxiliary output contact
The With mode and Delay mode are available for the operation of the auxiliary output contact.
Auxiliary
output mode
With mode
At the same time the automatic operation starts, the auxiliary contact flag of the
corresponding axis allocated in the I/O area turns on.
Delay mode
The auxiliary contact flag of the corresponding axis allocated in the I/O area turns on
according to the rate (%) of positioning moving amount in the automatic operation.
The rate to turn on the flag in the Delay mode is specified in the auxiliary output
delay rate area of the shared memory.
However, if the J point control has been specified for the automatic operation, the
operation is the same as the one in the With mode.
Also, the ON time of the auxiliary contact flag can be specified in the ms unit
Reference: <17.6.2 Parameter Setting Area>
Note: When performing the J point control, the operation in the Delay mode is the same as the
one in the With mode.
Auxiliary output data
The auxiliary output data (1 word) can be set for each table of the positioning data. The content of the
process currently carried out can be confirmed by setting the auxiliary output. The values in the auxiliary
output data are held until the next positioning table is executed. Also, the auxiliary output data that was
output just before the completion of the automatic operation is held.
Note: The auxiliary output data is stored when the positioning starts regardless of the type of
auxiliary output modes (With mode or Delay mode).
