Operating instructions
58  Application manual Positioning  04/08
After completion of the current motion order, a new motion order can be started 
automatically. 
As soon as the positioning operation is started with the corresponding logic signal for 
parameter 
Start Positioning  1222, the operation is started with the first motion 
block. 
When the target position is reached the settings are evaluated for parameters: 
−
Delay 1212 
−
Delay: Next motion block 1213 
−
Event 1 1214 
−
Event 1: Next Motion Block 1215 
−
Event 2 1216 
−
Event 2: Next Motion Block 1217 
If parameter Event 1 1214 receives a logic signal via the assigned input, the motion 
block adjusted in parameter 
Event 1: Next Motion Block 1215 is activated. 
If a signal is present on 
Event 2 1216, Event 2: Next Motion Block 1217 will be 
activated. 
If logic signals are present on Event 1 and Event 2 at the same time, the motion 
block from parameter 
Event 1: Next Motion Block 1215 will be activated. 
In parameter 
Delay 1212, you can set the time which is to pass before the next 
motion block is processed. In this time, Event 1 and Event 2 will be evaluated. The 
delay time will not elapse completely if Event 1 or Event 2 occurs in this time. If 
there are no logic signals on Event 1 nor on Event 2 after the delay has elapsed, the 
motion block set in parameter 
Delay: Next Motion Block 1213 will be processed. 
The setting 
Delay 1212 = 0 deactivates the function Delay: Next Motion Block 
1213. 
If motion block 
No. of Repetitions 1211 is set, this motion block is repeated. Repeti-
tions are executed for relative or touch-probe motions only. The repetition will not 
be started before the time set in parameter 
Delay 1212 has elapsed. 
Motion Mode 1208

0 – absolute 
No. of Repetitions 1211 is not evaluated. 
1 – relative 
2 – touch probe: rising edge
3 – touch probe: falling edge
Settings of parameter No. of Repetitions 1211 
are evaluated.

Note:
If repetitions (parameter 
No. of Repetitions 1211) are set, the delay  
(parameter 
Delay 1212) will be evaluated during the repetitions only. 
The settings for Event 1 and Event 2 will become active only after the 
last repetition and the delay.
