Values
|
Name |
Description |
|---|---|
|
mcDirectionNonModulo |
The Planar Mover moves to the absolute value of the target position. Depending on the current position, this may induce forward or backward movement. On looped tracks, multiple passes are possible. |
|
mcDirectionPositive |
The Planar Mover moves to the target position in a forward direction. No backward movement is allowed. |
|
mcDirectionShortestWay |
The Planar Mover takes the shortest way to the target position. May induce forward or backward movement. |
|
mcDirectionNegative |
The Planar Mover moves to the target position in a backward direction. No forward movement is allowed. |
 | In combination with the Tc2_MC2 library it is possible that the data type cannot be resolved uniquely (ambiguous use of name 'MC_Direction'). In this case you have to specify the namespace when using the data type (Tc3_Mc3PlanarMotion.MC_DIRECTION, Tc3_Mc3Definitions.MC_DIRECTION or Tc2_MC2.MC_DIRECTION). |
