MC_MoveAdditive

Description

This function block performs a single-axis move for a specified distance from the endpoint of the previous move. It is typically used with Abort specified at the BufferMode input. If BufferMode is not Abort, this move is identical to an MC_MoveRelative.

Time Diagram

The following figure shows two examples of the combination of two FunctionA function calculates a result according to the current value of its inputs. A function has no internal data and is not linked to declared instances. Blocks while the axis is in Discrete Motion state:

• The left part of timing diagram illustrates the case if the Second Function BlockA function block groups an algorithm and a set of private data. It has inputs and outputs. is called after the First one. If First reaches the commanded distance 6000 (and the velocity is 0) then the output Done causes the Second FB to move to the distance 10000
• The right part of the timing diagram illustrates the case if the Second move Function Blocks starts the execution while the First FB is still executing. In this case the First motion is interrupted and aborted by the Test signal during the constant velocity of the First FB. The Second FB adds on the previous commanded position of 6000 the distance 4000 and moves the axis to the resulting position of 10000

• This function block starts a motion-related action and therefore stores data for calculations and error checking. Please see Calling Function Blocks Multiple Times in the Same Cycle if you are using a dual-core controller.
