CNC Machine Scenario

Downloadable macro reference

	ZAxisMovement
Moves the components Z axis by 0.01mm. Direction determines direction 1= Down 0 = Up If collision is detected then movement will stop and the return value will be 1. Otherwise the return value will be 0.
- BYTE	Direction
Assign a value of 1 or 0. 1 will move the component down. 0 will move it up.
- BYTE	Return

	Drill_Speed
Will cause the drill to rotate according to the speed. If no speed is set it will stay static.
- FLOAT	DrillSpeed
Speed of the Drill. 0=Stopped
- VOID	Return

	MoveToXYZ
Moves the tool on the machine to the absolute X Y Z position specified at the speed specified by performing 3D linear interolation.
- FLOAT	X
- FLOAT	Y
- FLOAT	Z
- VOID	Return

	YAxisMovement
Moves the components Y axis by 0.01mm. Direction determines direction 1= Forward, 0 = Backward If collision is detected then movement will stop and the return value will be 1. Otherwise the return value will be 0.
- BYTE	Direction
Assign a value of 1 or 0. 1 will move the component right. 0 will move it left.
- BYTE	Return

	HomeMachine
Moves the machine an axis at a time until the end stop is hit. Finishes by resetting the coordinates to 0,0,0.
- VOID	Return

	XAxisMovement
Moves the components X axis by 0.01mm. Direction determines direction 1= Forward, 0 = Backward If collision is detected then movement will stop and the return value will be 1. Otherwise the return value will be 0.
- BYTE	Direction
Assign a value of 1 or 0. 1 will move the component forward. 0 will move it up.
- BYTE	Return

	ResetCoordinates
Resets the coordinates to the home position 0,0,0.
- VOID	Return

	Initialise
Enables the three motors within the component allowing for movement when any of the Axis macros are called.
- VOID	Return
