Question
What is meant by "Delay Registration Action by" in the VMOV and SMOV boxes? Is this a time delay?
Answer
You can substitute the words "Inhibit" or "Offset" in place of "Delay". This is not time-based, merely a distance before the "Decel to a Stop" takes effect. You can use it to decrease your overall Registration time, since if only "Decel to a Stop" is checked, then decel will immediately start at the Registration input. This could slow your motion down. By using both boxes, the motion can continue at the steady velocity, until it reaches the value set in "Delay Registration by", then the decel will take place. The user must determine what acceptable values are for his system, the instructions cannot prevent overshoot if values are too small are entered into the instructions.FAQ Subcategory: High-speed count / Pulse out
