In motion, how to pause and restart move by external switch ?

[Atech]

I have PCI-7344 motion controller and UMI-7764 terminal block.

I would like to pause and re-start by external swich when an axis is moving to target posision.

How can I design for it ?

Thanks,

Hello Atech,

I would suggest using the "Load Velocity Override.flx" VI in LabVIEW inside your loop to set the velocity to zero and then set it back to 100% when you want to continue. I think your question seems very similar to this other forum post.

So, if you were using the "Circle Demo.flx" example, you could use another case structure similar to the one containing the "stop motion.flx" VI but have the "Load Velocity Override.flx" VI in it instead.

I hope this helps,
