Description

AdvancedSlaveDynamics

BOOL

Swaps the internal algorithm of the function block. This makes it possible to synchronize to masters already in motion. In this case, "Acceleration" and "Deceleration" should only be parameterized symmetrically. If jerk presets are too large, this is reduced to the extent that a change from zero to the parameterized acceleration / deceleration can take place in one NC cycle. The resolution of the acceleration / deceleration thus depends directly on the suitable parameterization of the jerk value.

SyncMode

E_GearInMultiMasterSyncMode

The SyncMode specifies how the axis coupling behaves if the movement of the slave axis is limited in the AdvancedSlaveDynamics mode (limitation of velocity, acceleration and jerk). (available from TwinCAT 3.1.4024.11)
