XPlanar Tiles

XPlanar Tiles 1:

An XPlanar Tile is the smallest possible XPlanar Part. An XPlanar Tile corresponds to a physical XPlanar Tile APS4xxx-xx00. An XPlanar Tile is always a subordinate object of an XPlanar Part.

Simulation mode or normal operation

No hardware is required for the simulation mode of the driver.

For normal operation, a physical APS4xxx XPlanar Tile must be assigned to each XPlanar Tile.

A task must be assigned to each XPlanar Tile in the Context menu in order to be able to perform active calculations. All XPlanar Tiles that belong to an EtherCAT master must run on the same task. Only XPlanar Tiles have EtherCAT communication interfaces.

An XPlanar Tile can be arranged in a fixed grid:
