1. A motion system comprising:
- a set of motion data;
a set of motion control devices capable of storing motion data;
a set of motion events;
a set of text events, where at least one text event corresponds to at least one of the motion events;
a text event source capable of generating at least one text event;
a set of selectable first components, where each selectable first componentis associated with at least one motion control device, andimplements at least one first component function capable of exchanging motion data with at least one motion control device;
a second module, where the second moduleallows the selection of at least one first component,calls at least one first component function implemented by at least one first component, andimplements at least one second component function that is capable of exchanging motion data with at least one first component; and
an event manager, where the event managerreceives at least one text event from the text event source,maps at least one text event to at least one second component function, andcauses the second module to call at least one second component function that exchanges motion data with at least one first component.

Abstract
A motion control system comprising a machine platform, at least one event destination, and an event handler. The machine platform carries out automated tasks and generates events. The event handler is configurable to receive at least one event from the machine platform and send the at least one event to the at least one event destination.

21. A motion system comprising:
-
a set of motion data; a set of motion control devices capable of storing motion data; a set of motion events; a set of text events comprising at least one event descriptor that describes at least one motion event; a text event source capable of causing the generation of at least one text base event; a set of selectable components, where each selectable first component is associated with at least one motion control device, and implements at least one component function capable of exchanging motion data with at least one motion control device; a module capable of calling at least one component function implemented by at least one selectable component, implementing at least one module function, and exchanging motion data with a software application; and an event manager capable of receiving at least one text event, mapping at least one text event to at least one module function, and causing at least one module function to be called from the module to exchange motion data with one of the selectable components. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
