MC_CamScaling_V2
A cam plate coupling can be scaled with the function block MC_CamScaling_V2. The raw table data of the cam plate are not affected, however the scaling refers to an existing master/slave coupling. The following parameters can be modified: scaling factors for master and slave, and offsets for the cam plate within the coordinate system.
Optionally, the modification will only take effect from a certain master position, enabling precise scaling during the motion. Caution when scaling during motion! The slave position at the time of scaling should only be affected slightly by the change.
The status flag Axis.Status.CamcalingPending (AXIS_REF) can be used to check whether a scaling procedure is queued.
The block can be used from a runtime version TwinCAT 2.11 R2
Inputs
VAR_INPUT
Execute : BOOL;
ActivationMode : MC_CamActivationMode;
ActivationPosition : LREAL;
CamTableID : MC_CAM_ID;
Scaling : ST_CamScalingData;
Options : ST_CamScalingOptions_V2;
END_VAR
Execute |
The command is executed with a rising edge at input Execute. |
ActivationMode |
ActivationMode specified the scaling time and position. |
ActivationPosition |
Master position at which a cam plate is scaled, depending on the ActivationMode |
CamTableID |
ID of the cam plate that is scaled. |
Scaling |
Scaling data such as mode, offset and scaling factor |
Options |
not used |
Outputs
VAR_OUTPUT
Done: BOOL;
Busy: BOOL;
Active: BOOL;
CommandAborted: BOOL;
Error: BOOL;
ErrorID: UDINT;
END_VAR
Done | Becomes TRUE if scaling was successful. |
Busy | The Busy output becomes TRUE when the command is started with Execute and remains TRUE as long as the command is processed. When Busy becomes FALSE again, the function block is ready for a new command. At the same time one of the outputs, Done, CommandAborted or Error, is set. |
Active | Active indicates that the command is executed. When the scaling was done depending on ActivationMode, Active becomes FALSE and Done is set. |
CommandAborted | Becomes TRUE, if the command could not be fully executed. |
Error | Becomes TRUE, as soon as an error occurs. |
ErrorID | If the error output is set, this parameter supplies the error number. |
Inputs/outputs
VAR_IN_OUT
Slave : AXIS_REF;
END_VAR
Slave |
Axis data structure of the Slave. |
The axis data structure of type AXIS_REF addresses an axis uniquely within the system. Among other parameters it contains the current axis status, including position, velocity or error status.
