BREAK program instruction
BREAK program instruction
Syntax
BREAK
Function
Suspend program execution until the current motion completes.
Usage Considerations
The BREAK instruction is only used to wait for motion by the robot attached to the current
task.
If the eV+ system is not configured to control a robot, executing the BREAK instruction will
cause an error.
Details
This instruction has two effects:
1. Program execution is suspended until the robot reaches its current destination.
NOTE: BREAK cannot be used to have one task wait until a motion is completed by
another task.
2. The continuous-path transition between the current motion and that commanded by
the next motion instruction is broken. That is, the two motions are prevented from
being merged into a single continuous path.
The BREAK instruction causes continuous-path processing to terminate by blocking eV+
program execution until the motion ends. CPOFF causes the trajectory generator to
terminate continuous path without affecting the forward processing of the eV+ program.
