Capture Bit

Motion Block

Description

The Capture Bit returns the current value of the signal chosen to be the capture signal for the indicated axis. The signal is selected with Set Capture Source. This signal is used to trigger the capture latches for precisely recording an axis position. This command is provided to observe the state of the capture signal independent of the capture hardware.

Escapes

The Capture Bit block does not produce any escapes.
