CamControl

NuGet package: Beckhoff.TwinCAT.HMI.Plastic.Controls

Available: since version 12.6.0

CamControl is used to visualize and configure array of cam switches.
Each cam switch is defined by hysteresis and threshold values.

Threshold defines position of the cam switch on an axis from zero.

Hysteresis is the length added and subtracted from threshold to mark a range on the axis. If the axis position is in this range, the related cam should be switched on.

This control visualizes following components:

  1. Hysteresis values for each cam
  2. Threshold values for each cam
  3. Hysteresis and threshold visualization
  4. Current axis position
  5. Descriptor text for each cam
  6. Axis scale
  7. Scale unit
