Begin Stop

Command

<axis or group> BST

Description

Begin Stop directs the axis or group to slow down at the specified decel rate and stop motion. A coordinated group will remain coordinated during the stop. This is a non-blocking command. The calling program will not wait until after the stop has finished before continuing but will immediately execute the next statement while the axis or group is decelerating. The Move Is Finished command can be used to confirm when the axis has come to a complete stop.
