MLAxisWriteParam

Pipe Network motion icon This function/function block was added in KAS v4.05.

Function Block - Write an axis property for a Pipe Network Axis.

Inputs

Input	Data Type	Range	Unit	Default	Description
AxisID	DINT	1 to 1024	N/A	No default	ID of the Axis block.
ParameterNumber	INT	Enumerated	N/A	No default	See Axis Parameters.
Value	LREAL	No range	N/A	No default	State to write.

ID	Parameter	Name	R/W	Update Rate Type	Description
1036	ML_AXIS_PARAM_SIM_CLOSING	Simulator Distance Closing Fraction	Read / Write	Controller	This setting affects how responsive a simulated axis is to changing command positions. The valid range of this parameter is (0.0, 1.5). The default value is 0.7. Values use these ranges: (0.0, 1.0): Simulate following error. Value 0.1 generates a large following error. Value 0.9 generates a small following error. 1.0: No following error. (1.0,1.5): Simulate leading error. Value 1.0 is recommended when using an axis as a virtual master to command motion through camming and/or gearing.

Read / Write

This setting affects how responsive a simulated axis is to changing command positions.

Values use these ranges:

(0.0, 1.0): Simulate following error.
- Value 0.1 generates a large following error.
- Value 0.9 generates a small following error.
1.0: No following error.
(1.0,1.5): Simulate leading error.

Value 1.0 is recommended when using an axis as a virtual master to command motion through camming and/or gearing.

Not available.
