Sets the deceleration time or acquires the current set value. Deceleration time is available as a global value for all axes and a value settable for each axis

ASCII/Standalone                decel                global  acceleration setting

       decel[axis]        individual axis acceleration setting

Syntax:                        

Read:

decel[axis]                

Where:        [axis] is set to X, Y, Z, U, or not specified to read global value


Write:

decel[axis]=[accel]                 

Where:        [axis] is set to X, Y, Z, U, or not specified to read global value

[accel]      is the deceleration time in ms (0 – 65,535)

Reply: 

Command is accepted and executed

Read:         

Returns the value of the [axis] deviation counter (28-bit value)


Write:           

OK


Command cannot be processed

       An error message is returned. See Error Codes

Example: 

Read:        

DECY                * Returns deceleration time set for the Y axis in ms


Write:        

decel=300         * Sets deceleration time to 300 ms for all axes.


Notes:

  • Deceleration is time entered in milliseconds. Deceleration rate in pps2 (pulses/second2) can be calculated with the following formula.    

  • The minimum and maximum deceleration values depend on the high-speed and low-speed settings. Refer to Speed Settings for details.


  • Individual deceleration settings will take priority over the global deceleration settings. A global deceleration setting will only be used when, ether one of the following conditions is true:


    1. The corresponding individual deceleration setting is defined as zero.
    2. A coordinated motion is being performed.


In the example below, the settings will set both the global speed settings as well as the individual speed setting for the X axis.


HSPD=10000

HSPDX=2000

LSPD=300

accelX=500

accel=300

decel=300


Once a move command is issued in this example, the global speed settings for the low speed and deceleration, and the individual X-axis speed settings for the high speed and acceleration, will be used for motion.
