Internally, SoftMotion is using the function block SMC_FollowSetValues to preset the set values for each axis.
If one of the blocks returns an error, the axis group returns the error SMC_AXIS_GROUP_FOLLOW_SETVALUE.

Possible causes (error of SMC_FollowSetValues):

  • SMC_AXIS_NOT_READY_FOR_MOTION
  • SMC_WRONG_CONTROLLER_MODE
  • SMC_REGULATOR_OR_START_NOT_SET
  • SMC_MSI_INVALID_EXECUTION_ORDER
  • SMC_AXIS_ERROR_DURING_MOTION

In many cases, the cause of SMC_AXIS_GROUP_FOLLOW_SETVALUES is an axle error.
In this case, more information about the error should be in the log.

Also, the error is most likely preceded by another error.
