MC_MoveSuperimp

Description

This function block provides the ability to cause additional axis motion superimposed upon a currently executing move. A superimposed move is executed like an MC_MoveRelative move using the specified Distance, Velocity (i.e. VelocityDiff), Acceleration, Deceleration, and JerkIn physics, jerk is the rate of change of acceleration; more precisely, the derivative of acceleration with respect to time values. The interpolated command generated by a superimposed move is added to the command of the currently executing move. Subsequent calls to MC_MoveSuperimp can abort or blend to an executing MC_MoveSuperimp move.

This function block provides a way to smoothly apply a shift in axis position while it is executing a move.

1. The CommandAborted is not visible here, because the new command works on the same instance (see general rules)
2. The end position is between 7000 and 8000, depending on the timing of the aborting of the second command set for the MC_MoveSuperimposed

Output

Done	Description	Indicates the move completed successfully. The Command Position has reached the endpoint.
	Data type	BOOL
Busy	Description	High from the moment the Execute input is one-shot to the time the move is ended
	Data type	BOOL
Active	Description	Indicates this move is the active superimposed move
	Data type	BOOL
CommandAborted	Description	Indicates the move was aborted
	Data type	BOOL
Error	Description	Indicates an invalid input was specified or the move was terminated due to an error
	Data type	BOOL
ErrorID	Description	Indicates the error if Error output is set to TRUE See table in PLCopen Function Block ErrorID Output
	Data type	INT

Example

Structured Text

(* MC_MoveSuperimp ST example *)
Inst_MC_MoveSuperimp( MovSupReq, Axis1, 123.555, 10.0, 100.0, 100.0, 0, 0 );
MovSupDone := Inst_MC_MoveSuperimp.Done;  //store Done output into user defined variable
