The MC_GroupSetSetpointSource function block can be used to define the operating mode of the MC Group Coordinated Motion (CM group). If the setpoint source "Group" is selected, the source of the setpoint generation is the CM group. In other words, what is transferred to the group via MC_MovePath. In 'MCS' mode, the Cartesian setpoints fed in by PTP or NCI, for example, are used. The necessary inverse transformation is calculated within the CM group.

In 'ACS' mode, the axes are controlled directly, e.g., via PTP. This mode can be used for teaching, for example. The CM group calculates the forward transformation so that the Cartesian positions can be displayed.

MC_GroupSetSetpointSource 5: Inputs

VAR_INPUT

    SetpointSource : ECmSetpointSource;
END_VAR

Name

Type

Description

Execute

BOOL

The command is triggered by a rising edge at this input.

SetpointSource

ECmSetpointSource

Definition of the operating mode of the CM group

MC_GroupSetSetpointSource 6: Inputs/outputs

VAR_IN_OUT

END_VAR

Name

Type

Description

AxesGroup

AXES_GROUP_REF

Reference to a group of axes (see Cyclic Group Interface).

MC_GroupSetSetpointSource 7: Outputs

VAR_OUTPUT
    Done                  : BOOL;
    Busy                  : BOOL;
    Error                 : BOOL;
    ErrorId               : UDINT;
END_VAR

Name

Type

Description

Done

BOOL

This output becomes TRUE when the command was successfully executed.

Busy

BOOL

This output becomes TRUE when the command is started with Execute and remains so as long as the function block executes the command. If Busy becomes FALSE again, the function block is ready for a new command. At the same time one of the outputs Done, CommandAborted (if available) or Error is set.

Error

BOOL

This output becomes TRUE if an error has occurred during command execution.

ErrorId

UDINT

Contains the command-specific error code of the last executed command. Details of the error code can be found in the ADS error documentation or in the NC error documentation (error codes 0x4nnn and 0x8nnn).
