MLCNVConnectMLCNVConnect
The Converter block changes the incoming flow of values to continuous position output with no periodicity. If a converter block is not connected to an Axis, it does not send position output values to its assigned Axis. Every pipe branch must end in a converter, whether or not it is connected to a destination Axis object, as seen in Figure 1 below.
All converters in the Pipe Network can be connected at once with the command PipeNetwork(MLPN_Connect). This calls automatically generated code with MLCNVConnect commands for each Converter block. Therefore, in a multi-axis program only one command can be used to connect Pipe Blocks instead of writing code for each Axis separately.
The converter block has the ability to control the analog output on the AKD. See for information on the parameters.
