Axis Motion Limits in CoreX

[HugoCtrlX1]

Hello my name is Hugo ITR

I would like to know if is possible to eliminate position limits in Motion App in CoreX (see attachment), I am trying to program a RollFeed PLC application when position limits in Motion App is reached, Servodrive is stoping. I need continuous movement in positive direction and no limits reach in servodrive.  In servodrive parameters position limits are actually not active.

How can I do to get continuos movement in servomotor with no position limits?

If you set the properties of the axes to be 'rotational' and 'modulo', then you will be able to rotate endlessly.  If the axis is set to 'absolute' then it will hit those position limits set in the motion app. 

Also I notice from your screen shot that the acceleration and decelration limits are very low and you may want to increase them.  They are still at the default of 2 (set low for safety purposes)

The settings of the motion app provide a modular definition of your machine independent of the hardware used.  So it doesn't automatically pull the servo drive settings of absolute vs modulo.  But it does mean you can test plc and motion interactions before the physical axis profiles are connected.  You just have to manually insure that the settings of the servo drive and motion app match for the real application or write a rest api script that does it for you automatically.

Hello EngJay

I configured Drive and coreX in Modulo and put a long value, it let me run motor run continuosly in positive direction

Thankyou for you help
