Description: 
The keyword 
IDLEVEL is used by the keyword IDLE in determining whether the axis is in motion or 
not. 
If the measured velocity, 
VEL, is not within the bounds specified by IDLEVEL, then IDLE will indicate 
that the axis is still in motion. 
Example: 
AXES[3]
SCALE = 4000
IDLEPOS = 0.01
IDLEVEL = 1
MOVEA = 13.5:GO
PAUSE IDLE
The above example sets the idle velocity window for axis 3 to be 1 user unit / second.

Purpose: 
Reports any errors that were detected during start-up. 
Controllers Supported: 
MintDrive 
Dot Parameters: 
None. 
Format:

Description: 
As the controller powers-up it will perform a number of system checks and attempt to read 
configuration data from EEPROM. 
INITERROR can be used to determine whether any of these error 
conditions were detected at power-up. 
If Mint is being used, then any 
AUTO command will be ignored, if any of these error conditions occur. A 
corresponding error message will be reported and control will be passed to the command line.
