Blend complete rather than Move complete?

[ctsnc]

After I issue an absolute move on a closed loop stepper axis with PCI-7344 using flex_Start, the Move Complete bit never gets set, but the Blend complete bit does. Since, I'm waiting in a loop for the Move Complete bit, the program (VB 6.0) hangs. Why would the Blend Complete bit get set rather than the Move Complete bit?

You might want to check first that you have the latest NI-Motion 5.2 driver. Then, check your Move Complete Criteria because it might have all the conditions disabled hence never gets a flag. Blend Complete checks also for a Motor Stop and Profile Complete bits to be set and then it sets itself. Anyways, focus on why the Move Complete Criteria does not flags, the NI-Motion Software Reference Manual will show which function to use to set it up and the bitmap order. If you need further assistance on this issue I would recommend you to contact NI Support, www.ni.com/ask.
