# Command:MOVREL (R)

MS2000 or RM2000 syntax
Shortcut R MOVREL [Axis]= [units 1/10 microns]… 1/10 microns
Tiger syntax
Shortcut R MOVREL [Axis]= [units 1/10 microns]… 1/10 microns Axis-Specific Using [addr#]SS Z

Move one or more axis motor a distance relative from its current position. This command is very similar to the MOVE command. The unit of measurement is also in tenths of microns.

A positive reply of :A is sent back when the command is received correctly. Reception of the reply does not mean the end of execution, and the command STATUS can be used to determine if the move has been completed.

##### Example
R X=1234 Y=-321 Z
:A


The controller will move the X-axis an additional 123.4 microns in the positive direction at the maximum set speed (see SPEED). Simultaneously, the Y-axis will move 32.1 microns in the negative direction, while the Z-axis will not move at all.

During this movement, the Joystick and Encoder input will be locked-out and cannot alter the target positions entered. The motors will stop when they have reached their target, or if their limit switch is encountered. To stop the motors during a serial MOVREL command, use the HALT ( \ ) command.
