Overview

The TwinCAT Motion Control PLC library Tc3_DriveMotionControl contains function blocks for programming simple machine applications based on Beckhoff servo terminal technology. It is based on the PLCopen specification for Motion Control function blocks V2.0 (www.PLCopen.org).

This library offers an alternative option for controlling simple movements without using TwinCAT NC PTP. The functionality is reduced compared to TwinCAT NC PTP.

If the library is to be used in parallel with Tc2_MC2, set the option "Qualified access only" = TRUE for one of the libraries.

This library can then be addressed via the corresponding namespace, e.g. Tc2_MC2.MC_Power.

Motion commands can be commanded directly to a servo terminal in the usual PLCopen-compliant manner.
