CAM Profile Switching

At pipe network start-up or when using the MLCamSwitch function blockClosed A function block groups an algorithm and a set of private data. It has inputs and outputs., a CAM block's output positionClosed Position means a point in space which is described by different coordinates. Depending on the used system and transformation it can consist of a maximum of six dimensions (coordinates).This means three Cartesian coordinates in space and coordinates for the orientation. In ACS there can be even more than six coordinates. If the same position is described in different coordinate systems the values of the coordinates are different. is set to the output position of the initialized profile.

Assume

  • This profile is switched on.
  • The present pipe network position is:
    • 150 at the input of the CAM block.
    • 50 at the output of the CAM block.

Result

  • As the input to the CAM block increases or decreases, the CAM output value increases or decreases respectively.
  • It will go through the modulo without a position jump.
