stopmove( )
Parameters
| None |
_result
Not set.
Descriptions
Causes a robot to end lateral movement. Lateral movement is stopped by decelerating at the robot's target deceleration rate as set by the deceltarget command.
When the stopmove command is called, the amount of remaining lateral movement it stored in a buffer so that movement can be restarted with the continue command. If stopmove is called when no lateral movement is occurring, the continue buffer is left unchanged. Each time stopmove ends lateral movement, however, the information stored in the movement continue buffer is overwritten.
When a robot is no longer moving laterally, the _moving system variable is false. Stopmove generally requires multiple turns to complete and therefore causing blocking.
