Chapter 7 Motion Control Programming In the Data setting area, each column in the table can be specified to define the parameters of the data points which are operate according to the designed E-CAM curves. The columns in the Data setting area are explained as below. listed in rows. The whole E-CAM curve are constructed by these data points (max. 20 rows), and the E-CAM cycle will Master position: the master position of the data point Slave position: the slave position of the data point Slave velocity: the slave velocity calculated automatically according to the specified position. Slave acceleration:
the slave acceleration calculated automatically according to the specified position. CAM Curve: the cam curve type between the data points, including Const Speed, Const Acc., Single Hypot., Cycloid and B-Spline. Resolution: the resolution of current section. The resolution setting should be specified according to the equipment requirements. The equipment operates smoother with a higher resolution, however the E-CAM data size also grows bigger with higher resolution. After the E-CAM editing is completed, you can use CamTable of MC_CamIn to specify the Name or the Item ID of the E-CAM chart.
The specified E-CAM chart will be applied in the E-CAM operation when the two instructions are enabled or executed. For detailed explanations of the two instructions, refer to AH Motion Controller – Motion Control Instructions Manual 7_ Importing the Recorded E-CAM Data with Master/slave Relation to Create the E-CAM Curves You can store the master/slave positions in a file, and then import the relation into a cam chart in ISPSoft. The steps of importing the E-CAM data into a cam chart in ISPSoft are as follows. 7-37
