MC_CalcTrafo

MC_CalcTrafo 1:

TF5410
TwinCAT 3 Motion Collision Avoidance

TF5420
TwinCAT 3 Motion Pick-and-Place

 

MC Group with Pick-and-Place

MC Group Coordinated Motion

MC_CalcTrafo 2:

MC_CalcTrafo 3:

MC_CalcTrafo 4:

The function block MC_CalcTrafo calculates the forward or inverse kinematic transformation. Accordingly, the function block requires that a kinematic transformation be assigned to the Coordinated Motion group.

Name

Type

Description

Execute

BOOL

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

Forward

BOOL

Determines whether the forward or backward transformation is calculated.

AxesPosIn

Pointer To LREAL

A pointer to an array containing the input positions of the transformation. When calculating a forward transformation, these represent the joint positions. When calculating a backward transformation, these represent the Cartesian axis positions.

AxesPosInCount

UDINT

Number of input positions

AxesPosOut

Pointer To LREAL

A pointer to an array containing the resultant positions of the transformation. When calculating a forward transformation, these represent the Cartesian coordinate positions. When calculating a backward transformation, these represent the joint positions.

AxesPosOutCount

UDINT

Number of result items

Description

AxesGroup

AXES_GROUP_REF

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

MetaInfoIn

U_CalcTrafoMetaInfo

If multiple robot configurations result in a solution, you can select the solution to be used. For kinematics where this parameter is not required, this input can be assigned a dummy variable.

MetaInfoOut

U_CalcTrafoMetaInfo

If multiple solutions are possible for a transformation, the solution found is specified. For kinematics where this parameter is not required, this input can be assigned a dummy variable.

MC_CalcTrafo 8: Outputs

VAR_OUTPUT
    Error                    : BOOL;
    ErrorId                  : UDINT;
END_VAR

Name

Type

Description

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).
