5. OPERATIONAL FUNCTIONS
5.4.3 Start operation method
Start operation is performed according to the following procedure.
(1) Define the linear interpolation group, the linear interpolation speed limit, and the linear interpolation options
in the control parameters. The group number is valid during system startup. Other than that it is valid during
writing of parameters.
(2) Set up the point table. At this time, all items are set up for the primary axis and only position data is set up
for auxiliary axes. Settings for other items are invalid.
(3) Set the start point number and end point number for all of the axes in the group configuration.
Define the setting so that the numbers of points for all of the aces are the same.
(4) Turn on the linear interpolation mode signal (LIP) for all of the axes in the group.
(5) Turn on the fast start operation signal (FST) for the primary axis.
POINT
To stop the operation, turn on stop operation signal (STP) of any axis in the
linear interpolation group.
The operation point number can be checked in the operation point number of
the axis status table (same as monitor No.030A).
The point number starts from 0.
The point table is a total of 320 points for all axes. The number of points
distributed to each axis can be adjusted using the point number offset. For
details, refer to Section 10.8.
API LIBRARY
Use the sscSetPointDataEx function to set up point data in (2) above.
Use the sscLinearStart function to perform procedures (3) to (5) above.
Use the sscDriveStop or sscDriveStopNoWait functions to perform stop
operation.
Use the sscGetDriveFinStatus or sscWaitIntDriveFin functions to check
completion of operation.
Use the sscSetPointOffset/sscCheckPointOffset functions to set/get point
number offset.
